Chapter 170 Dean Steps In
Originally, there was no doubt about the ownership of Ogre yer, but now there was a twist!
The young man from guest seat No. 16, directly countered Alonzo with a higher bid!
Both of them adopted the same strategy, making fierce statements of intent to obtain the knife.
This situation delighted the beautiful hostess, who smiled and said, "This is a bit difficult for me. It
seems that this bidding battle can''t be easily resolved."
Seven million dors had already far exceeded expectations. If neither side backed down, the price
could still increase significantly.
However, she knew that the ultimate goal of the auction was to actually sell the item. Some
impulsive guests might end up unable to pay and use promissory notes, resulting in a loss for the
auction. Therefore, she had to control the situation to prevent the situation from getting out of hand.
"Outrageous! Why are there so many people who dare to challenge me recently? Who are you?
Believe me, I can make sure you don''t leave this ship alive!"
The young man''s sudden intervention infuriated Alonzo.
He had just dealt with Gabriel, and now there came another ignorant troublemaker. Did these guys
know who the Garza family were at all?
In the face of threats, however, the young man remained calm and said, "I came for the auction, not
for death. Since it''s an auction, I have the right to bid. It''s quite overbearing for you, sir to allow
others to bid, isn''t it?"
"You can bid, I never said you couldn''t bid. I''m just warning you to be careful of your safety when we
disembark!" Alonzo threatened arrogantly once again.
Unexpectedly, the young man remained unfazed and nodded, saying, "That''s fine, I''ll continue
bidding then. As for whether I live or die, we''ll find out when we disembark!"
"You..." Alonzo''s anger caused his nose to re, and he cursed, "Son of a bitch! If you want to bid,
go ahead. Let''s see who''s got more fucking money!"
The young man''s unaffected demeanor rendered Alonzo helpless.
Silently, Alonzo had already made up his mind to kill the young man after this.
Hearing this, the beautiful hostess''s eyes lit up. Seizing the opportunity, she loudly announced, "The
auction continues. Mr. Garza bids seven million dors. Is there anyone else willing to raise the
bid?"
"Seven million five hundred thousand dors!" the young man raised his paddle.
"Eight million five hundred thousand dors!" Alonzo also raised his paddle!
"Eight million ten thousand dors!"
"Nine million ten thousand dors!"
"Nine million fifteen thousand dors!"
After several rounds of bidding, the price was approaching ten million dors.
Both of them continued bidding relentlessly, following their previously stated methods.
At this point, it seemed like an endless bidding war!
The beautiful hostess was ecstatic, her eyes rolling in her sockets as she looked at Alonzo and the
young man, her eyes almost spinning.
The other guests were also dumbfounded; these two were driving up the price excessively!
Finally, it was Alonzo''s turn to bid again.
But this time, just as Alonzo raised his paddle to make another bid, Bernard grabbed his arm and
said, "Wait a moment, this bidding war between you two is getting out of hand!"
He was starting to get a bit anxious; although the Garza family wasn''t short on money, money
shouldn''t be spent recklessly!
What if they ended up spending hundreds of millions on a single knife? He would surely get scolded
when he returned!
Therefore, it was necessary to stop the bidding at the right time.
Furious, Alonzo shook off Bernard and shouted angrily, "I don''t care if it''s meaningful or not. I''ll keep
bidding until I bankrupt him! Thest thing I''m not short of is money!"
"Then go ahead and keep bidding. Why waste time talking?" The young man rolled his eyes.
"You..." Alonzo was so infuriated that he couldn''t even speak properly. He eximed, "You son of a
bitch! Fine, I''ll keep bidding, and I''ll make sure you don''t survive this!"
If it weren''t for Peter and Bernard holding him back, he probably would have pounced on the young
man and started a fight.
"Tsk tsk, make sure to leash your dog. It''s illegal to walk a dog without a leash!" the young man
tsked, rolling his eyes again.
The young man appeared soposed in such a critical moment.
With a few words, he tactfully insulted Alonzo, who appeared fierce.
"Kid, you are so arrogant and unruly, truly ignorant!" Even Bernard was agitated.
He and Peter restrained the frenzied Alonzo while warning the young man, "I don''t care about your
background or identity, but right now, I''m responsibly telling you that you''ve offended someone you
can''t afford to provoke. Your fate will be extremely miserable!"
Originally, they wanted to advise Alonzo, but the young man refused to give an out, which was
infuriating.
Now, it wasn''t about money; it was about Alonzo''s dignity, and the Garza family''s dignity.
"Someone I can''t afford to provoke?" The young man pretended not to hear clearly, and with a naive
look, he pointed at Alonzo, saying, "Are you talking about him? If this useless person, who only
knows how to shout, is someone I can''t afford to provoke, then perhaps I should stay at home and
rot!"
"It''s truly pitiful of you, tirelessly serving a useless person. Shame on you,ckeys!"
Upon hearing that, Bernard''s expression turned cold.
His two drooping big ears quivered for a moment. This young man was extremely arrogant, even
daring to insult him.
"Loose-tongued and ignorant, Peter, take care of him, kill this man!"

At this point, grace and manners didn''t matter at all. Even if the ck Pearl was a ship of the God
Temple, they must do it.
Now, they were going to resort to violence and teach a lesson to the man who dared to defy the
Garza family members.
Receiving the order, Peter unbuttoned the top button of his shirt and leaped into the venue.
He exuded a fierce aura as he charged towards the young man in guest seat No. 16, shouting, "Kid,
come down and face your death!"
The situation was on the brink of spiraling out of control when suddenly, Dean and a group of
people rushed in.
Dean marched forward with a powerful stride, his military boots making a resounding thud-thud
sound. He dered with authority, "This is the ck Pearl, and this is the Golden Ocean Auction.
Who dares to cause trouble here?"
More than a dozen of his subordinates, all dressed in military uniforms, swiftly spread out,
surrounding the entire venue!
Peter found himself surrounded in the venue; the opposing side had the numbers, and he dared not
make a move for the time being.
Taking advantage of the situation, the young man raised his voice and appealed, "Respected
Captain Dean, someone has been preventing others from bidding. If anyone else tries to bid, they
resort to violence. The Golden Ocean Auction is a world-renowned auction, and it shouldn''t tolerate
violence and rule-breaking, right? Allowing this to go unchecked will surely tarnish the reputation of
the Golden Ocean Auction, and no one will dare toe to the next auction!"
The young man''sining infuriated Alonzo once again, who cursed loudly.
At this moment, the beautiful hostess whispered the whole story to Dean.
After hearing the hostess''s ount, Dean''s face turned extremely grim. His sharp eyes fixed on
Alonzo as he said, "True, the Dragon Kingdom''s high-ranking officials spoke to me, telling me to be
nice to you, but don''t you think can act recklessly on my ship just because of that. No one in the
entire world dares to cause trouble on the ck Pearl!"
"Last time, you attempted to assassinate the guest in room No. 15, and I let it go. But you''re too
disrespectful of me. Today, you''re causing trouble at the auction again!"
"Today, if you dare toy a finger on guest No. 16, I will make sure you won''t leave this ship alive!"
