1989

The plane landed in a cove where the creator's base was.

It could clearly be seen that the mountain had been flattened by the terrifying bombardment.

Xu Taiping flipped over a pile of rubble and came to a stop in front of what was known as the creator's base.

This was a base hidden in the mountains. Due to the bombing, it was no longer possible to see what the base looked like. There were only broken experimental equipment scattered everywhere and occasionally some blood could be seen.

Xu Taiping paced back and forth between the bases, discovering that there was no one left alive, not even the dead. It was said that after the bombing, all the people here were blown to pieces, and all the human remains had been taken to the EU headquarters. There, DNA testing was done to determine who the human remains belonged to.

Xu Taiping had already looked through the European Union's list of names based on the test results. There were Lin Sanjun, Zhao Taiji, and many of the upper echelons that he had never seen before. However, there was no Duanmu Ci, nor was there Lin Xiaoqing.

No one in the EU, Chu Ye, or Hua Xia knew where the two had gone to.

From Xu Taiping's point of view, it was possible that Duanmu Ci was already dead. After all, the reason he was taken away by the creator of this world was so he could be taken away for his own experiments, and not being able to find Duanmu Ci's remains in this base proved that it was very possible that Duanmu Ci was already dead somewhere else and not brought here. As for Lin Xiaoqing, Xu Taiping didn't know where this person had gone to. It was unlikely, because she was Lin Sanjun's daughter. Lin Sanjun couldn't possibly kill his own daughter, right? If she wasn't dead, then where was the creator of this place now? If she wasn't dead, then where was she?

Xu Taiping frowned, as if he felt that something was wrong.

At that moment, Xu Taiping's phone suddenly rang.

Xu Taiping picked up his phone and saw that it was a call from his elder cousin.

"I hope you can tell me some good news." Xu Taiping said.

"Bro Xu, I can't find that Duanmu Huazhe or whatever. Still, I've managed to find out something." The eldest cousin said.

"What is it?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Tonight, in the country of corruption, there will be a unique auction." The eldest cousin said.

"Unique auction?" Xu Taiping frowned, "What do you mean? You want to buy something? "

"Listen to me first. This auction is not open to the public. Many buyers are anonymous too. There is only one auction item, and that is people!" The eldest cousin said.

"Auctioneer?" Xu Taiping raised an eyebrow, "Isn't this illegal?"

"So this is a private auction. This auction is organized by the 'black net'. Do you know about it?" the eldest cousin asked.

"How could I not know about the black net? It's easy to organize the world's number one people. They kidnap people from all over the world and then sell them to mysterious customers." Xu Taiping said.

"Yes, the black net is very powerful, they even kidnapped some famous people, tonight's auction was organized by the black net, there will be many people being sold in the auction, of course, they said these people were willing to be auctioned, I heard from others that in this year's black net auction, there will be several men being auctioned, one of them is a very handsome man from the East, it is said that when several rich women saw the photo of that man, they had already decided to buy that man no matter the cost, didn't you tell me just now?" "That guy called Duanmu Huanghun, his only characteristic is his handsome appearance. I was just thinking, could this auctioned eastern man be Duanmu Huanghun?" The eldest cousin said.

"When is the auction? "Where exactly is the location?" Xu Taiping asked.

However, the threshold for entry into the auction is very high. Ordinary people are not allowed to participate in the auction, so you must be a nobleman, but, luckily, I am now considered a nobleman. Through me and my brothers, I managed to get two tickets to the auction. The eldest cousin said proudly.

"Two? Who else wants to go? " Xu Taiping asked.

"Of course it's me! Bro Xu, I've never participated in an auction as exciting as this before. I definitely have to go and take a look!" The eldest cousin said.

"Alright, it's 7: 30 in the evening. Call me when you get to City L." Xu Taiping said.

"Alright!"

After hanging up, Xu Taiping searched the scene again. After confirming that there was nothing of value, he took the fighter jet out of the mountains and headed towards the Rampage.

Rotten Country, the old name empire.

In the whole of Europe, the status of a corrupt country was relatively high. Because the entire country was shrouded in rain and fog year round, it gave off a very corrupt feeling.

Xu Taiping hid his fighter jet in a park in L city. Afterwards, he went to a nearby clothing store and bought himself a decent suit.

At 7: 30 PM, Xu Taiping received a call from his elder cousin.

"Bro Xu, I've already reached the entrance of the auction house. Where are you?" the eldest cousin asked.

"Send the location to me, I'll head there." Xu Taiping said.

"Alright, I'll send it to you!"

Ten minutes later, Xu Taiping arrived at 88 Peace Street.

This was a very ancient building. If it weren't for the few strong guards standing by the door, this building wouldn't have attracted anyone's attention.

Xu Taiping saw his big cousin sitting in a car across the street from the building.

Xu Taiping walked over, opened the passenger door and got in.

"Aiyo, mom. Bro Xu, you really gave me a fright!" The older cousin was shocked by the sudden appearance of Xu Taiping and couldn't help but to say.

"What about tickets?" Xu Taiping asked.

"The ticket is here, Bro Xu. It's been a long time since we last met. Why don't you give me a hug?!" The eldest cousin said.

"Let's wait until this matter is settled before carrying it on." Xu Taiping said.

"That's fine too. Here, this is the ticket. Also, this is your mask." The eldest cousin said as he handed Xu Taiping a few things.

"Mask? What are you doing? " Xu Taiping asked.

"Of course it's worn. This sort of thing is illegal. Who would dare to see someone in their true appearance? All of them wear masks." The eldest cousin said.

"Since you know this is illegal, why do you still dare to hold the population auction in such a public place?" Xu Taiping asked.

How can you say that, there is a need, there is a lot of things I do not know, but only people can buy or sell these things, and the black net uses all kinds of methods to search for people, how many of them can't be obtained through illegal means, that can only be done through illegal means, and the benefit chain must be very scary, otherwise the black net would not be able to play so easily in the matter of human trafficking, and dare to directly open an auction, even though it is not public, that energy is still not normal! The eldest cousin said.

"When there's light, there will always be darkness. No one can avoid this." Xu Taiping said with a sigh.

"Let's go, Bro Xu. The eight o'clock auction has started on time. Quite a few people have come tonight. I saw quite a few big shots from Europe just now." The eldest cousin said.

"You can still recognize people with masks?" Xu Taiping asked in surprise.

Of course, my eyes are sharp, I can tell with a single glance, it's the same for people, people are easier to see than bags, this mask does not cover the entire face, aiya, come here, everyone is just wearing a mask to prevent it from being so public, as long as it's something important, everyone will be able to recognize it. The eldest cousin said.

"A thing that is against the law, yet there are so many big shots doing it, so no one thinks that it is against the law anymore. This is the rule of this world. Damn it. "Let's get out of the car." Xu Taiping put on his mask and got out of the car.

The older cousin followed Xu Taiping out of the car, and the two of them crossed the road and arrived at the simple building.

After checking the tickets, Xu Taiping and his elder cousin walked into the ancient building.

After passing through a long corridor that had a slightly musty smell to it, a door appeared in front of Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping pushed the door open.

In front of them, appeared something similar to a theater. In front of them was a stage, and below the stage was a row of seats. There were about two to three hundred seats, and above the seats, there was a row of empty rooms.

"The rooms here are very private. Some really important people will be arranged to be in the rooms. For example, the rich and powerful who sell oil, as well as the descendants of some dictators. I wonder if these people have come today." The eldest cousin said.

"How do you know so much?" Xu Taiping asked.

"After knowing that I would be coming to a place like this tonight, I asked my bro about a lot of things related to this place. If he didn't fight a battle he wouldn't be prepared for! This is the creed of my life, I can't possibly see someone I like and buy one for him. If you were to be bought by me, you can be considered to have escaped from the sea of suffering, right? " The eldest cousin said.

"You guys, you did pretty well in the Rampage, didn't you?" Xu Taiping asked.

"It's still okay, it's just an old man. We just happened to know each other when we lived here. We were pretty chatty, so we became brothers." The eldest cousin said.

"Old man?" This taste of yours is also considered unique. " Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"Bro Xu, let's take a seat. The auction starts at eight!" The eldest cousin said.

"Sure!" Xu Taiping nodded, and together with his elder cousin, they found their location.

They were seated in the middle, not far behind, beside Xu Taiping and the others were also wearing masks. Although everyone was wearing masks, Xu Taiping noticed that most of these people were middle-aged and elderly, and all of them had bloated bodies.
