31: Powerful reinforcements escort the treasure.

Qin Yun walked to the container door, scanned the crowd of frantic Treasure Hunters, and looked at the Host with a serious expression.

"Are there any rules here at all? Are outsiders actually allowed to touch the items I've won?"

Qin Yun's voice was ice-cold, his anger at the crowd's offensive behavior evident.

The Treasure Hunters didn't react; they continued to reach out and squeeze toward the warehouse.

If not for the group of burly Staff Members blocking the way outside the warehouse, they would have rushed in long ago.

At this moment, their eyes were filled with nothing but antiques; there was no room for anything else.

Hearing Qin Yun's words, the Host finally snapped out of it.

He wanted to stop the frantic crowd but didn't know how to handle the situation.

Just then, his leader's voice came through his earpiece. He nodded repeatedly, and his gaze grew firm.

Turning the microphone volume to its maximum, he barked sternly at the Treasure Hunters.

"Stop right there!"

"If anyone dares to make another move, you'll be answering to Black Tooth!"

A sharp, piercing sound blasted from the speakers, causing everyone to freeze in surprise.

They were about to step forward again when they heard the name "Black Tooth."

The Treasure Hunters seemed to snap awake instantly, standing in place without daring to make the slightest movement.

After a long while, they looked at each other with expressions of pure fear and began to back away repeatedly.

"Scared the hell out of me. What was I thinking?"

"If we cause trouble here, we probably won't make it out alive. Even if we're lucky enough to live, we'd be stripped naked and thrown into the sea."

"That was close. But Qin Yun's haul is so incredible, I just couldn't control myself for a moment!"

"The whole warehouse is full of antiques. Who could resist that?"

"If this wasn't Black Tooth's territory, I definitely would have made a move."

...After retreating, the Treasure Hunters saw that the Staff Members weren't attacking and began to whisper among themselves.

With lingering fear, they spoke to those around them about the terror of Black Tooth and their longing for the antiques.

Seeing that the strategy had worked, Qin Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

The auction organization was indeed willing to maintain order.

Furthermore, the organizer of this underground Warehouse Auction was very likely the organization called Black Tooth.

Given the reaction of these lawless Treasure Hunters, Black Tooth's power must be formidable.

The Host saw that the Treasure Hunters on the floor had calmed down, and his tense mood relaxed considerably.

He coughed a few times: "Don't be envious, everyone. There are still two more warehouses to be auctioned. There will surely be good things in there too."

"I hereby declare the fourth warehouse officially open for auction."

The Host led everyone to the fourth container and had the Staff Members open a small crack.

The Treasure Hunters on the floor grew lively again, scrambling forward to see what was inside the warehouse.

This burst of excitement suggested they had already put the previous incident out of their minds.

Qin Yun stood by the third warehouse, not daring to leave.

He was very worried that an accident would happen here and that the Treasure Hunters would directly try to rob him.

Especially Brother Wu Ying, who had suffered at his hands twice in a row; he was very likely to make a move.

Therefore, Qin Yun did not go forward to check what was in the fourth warehouse, nor did he dare to bid again.

Ultimately, the fourth warehouse was taken by a scrawny old man for fifteen thousand dollars.

Inside were parts for smuggled cars; he could barely break even.

When the fifth warehouse began its auction, Qin Yun couldn't resist using his last charge of Profound Vision Treasure Eye.

The treasure light in the container was green, with only a faint blue in the corner.

It seemed that while these underground Warehouse Auctions did have good items, they weren't that common.

Most things in the warehouses were contraband or smuggled goods; whether they were valuable depended on luck.

With no more suspense, there was no need to keep watching.

Qin Yun and Julia decided to gather all the antiques in the container and pack them into cardboard boxes.

They planned to leave immediately as soon as the auction ended.

Looking at the two full boxes of antiques, Qin Yun had a bit of a headache.

It would be fine if no one interfered, but if someone was determined to cause trouble...

It would be difficult for the two of them to move the two boxes of antiques to the car.

Before the auction even finished, Brother Wu Ying approached them.

He stared at the two packed boxes for a long time, then laughed with a dark expression.

"Quite a haul, isn't it?"

"You got lucky last time, but you won't be so lucky this time. I'm not the only one with my eyes on those antiques."

Brother Wu Ying was very greedy for the two boxes of antiques, wishing he could snatch them right away.

Qin Yun heard the provocative tone in Brother Wu Ying's words and warned with a cold face.

"This is Black Tooth's territory. I don't believe you'd dare to act out!"

Qin Yun was actually unsure in his heart, but Julia had said she would handle the aftermath.

He could only hope that Black Tooth could intimidate Brother Wu Ying enough to keep him from acting recklessly.

Hearing the name Black Tooth, a hint of solemnity appeared on Brother Wu Ying's face, and he glanced warily behind him twice.

Finding that no one from the Black Tooth organization was coming over, his expression immediately relaxed significantly.

"Don't try to scare me with Black Tooth. I'm just saying a few words, what can they do to me?"

"You'd better consider your own situation. It's safe enough in here, but outside, no one will protect you. With so much stuff, have you thought about how far you can actually run?"

Because he felt ashamed for showing fear at the mention of Black Tooth, Brother Wu Ying turned his embarrassment into anger and threatened them directly.

Qin Yun was also very worried at this moment.

This place was very remote and pitch black; if someone were to mug them, what would they do?

Leaving aside whether they could protect this batch of antiques, even his and Julia's safety was an issue.

Furthermore, the uses for Profound Vision Treasure Eye had run out; without the protection of the Black Tooth organization, trouble was certain.

The auction had ended, and many Treasure Hunters were walking toward Qin Yun's side.

"Hi, I'm Thomas. Nice to meet you."

"Are you selling your antiques? If you don't have a channel, you can contact me. I'll definitely offer a high price. Here's my business card."

"I'm George. Can we talk about the gold nugget? I'll be very sincere."

...They wanted to get to know Qin Yun and incidentally discuss trading after leaving.

Qin Yun smiled and accepted all the business cards.

"If I decide to sell, I'll consider you all."

"Excuse us, we're heading out first."

His current thought was to leave this place as quickly as possible; otherwise, a long night brings many dreams, and there would be many variables.

So he gave vague promises to stall them for now.

He then instructed Julia, and the two of them each carried a cardboard box toward the exit.

The people with Brother Wu Ying, having failed to win a warehouse, followed the two directly outside.

Once outside the factory, Brother Wu Ying's group quickly ran ahead of Qin Yun and Julia, blocking their path.

Seeing the predatory crowd, Julia didn't show the slightest hint of fear; instead, she let out a cold smirk.

"Your wishful thinking is definitely going to fail. You are destined to go home empty-handed today!"

Julia checked her watch; it was already the appointed time, and her confidence grew even stronger.

Brother Wu Ying didn't know where Julia and Qin Yun got their courage.

They were outside now, yet they still dared to talk tough; they really didn't know how to fear death.

"Get them! I'll take responsibility for whatever happens! You guys will definitely..."

Before Brother Wu Ying could finish his sentence, he heard the piercing roar of engines.

Looking up, beams of light approached from the distance, quickly arriving before them.

Brother Wu Ying was stunned, shielding his eyes with his hands.

He hadn't called for anyone, so what was going on?

Qin Yun was just about to act when he saw the convoy appear and decided to wait and see.

Over a dozen cars with high beams on and throttles floored arrived before the group like a whirlwind.

The convoy circled the group several times as if showing off their skills before slamming on the brakes simultaneously.

Smoke and the smell of burnt rubber instantly filled the space, leaving circles of black marks on the concrete ground.

After the smoke cleared, a group of guys in black suits stepped out of the cars at the same time.

The one who stepped out of the first car was none other than Ross, the car dealership owner.
