Maria's eyes squinted when she looked at the robbers.
" Young Master, They look pretty professional." She leaned and whispered.
" They prepared weapons especially to suppress the metahumans and mutants. Maybe they are a group of highly skilled robbers?"
Jun Tianyun shrugged when he heard that. " Well, I believe you can take all of them out, can't you?"
Maria pursed her lips when she heard that. " Of course I can. However, What about you, Young Master?"
" Me? Of course, I can take down all of them." Jun Tianyun yawned. " However, There is not much fun in it, is there?"
" Everyone! You guys better cooperate. Otherwise, We won't mind spilling blood on the floor." One of the masked robbers walked forward as he pointed the gun at the ceiling.
*BANG! BANG!*
" Ahhhh!"
" Help! Someone help!"
There was an instant reaction from the crowd as everyone got on their knees.
Cecile and her mother already stood a bit far from Jun Tianyun and Maria. Suddenly, one of the robbers looked at them as he walked towards them.
" Nice diamond necklace. Hurry up and give it to me."
Cecile's mother trembled as she nodded. " Yes, Do-Don't hurt anyone. I am giving it to you."
Cecile clenched her fist when she saw her mom giving away her favorite necklace to the robbers. But then, the robber turned around, looking at Cecile with a gleaming eye.
" What a cute girl. Why don't you come with me, huh?"
" Yo-You said you won't do anything!" Cecile's mother shouted as she looked at the robber.
" You got your necklace! Now fuck off!"
" Bitch! You dare to question me?"
*PAA!*
" Mom!"
Cecile's expression changed as she held her mom, who had been slapped by the robber. " You bastard! You dare to hurt my mom? I will kill you!"
" Whoa whoa, Little lady." The robber gave a nefarious laugh as he held the wrist of Cecile. " You got a fiery temper, I like it."
" Hope your lower mouth would be this fiery when I would be pounding you later."
" Yo-You!"
Cecile's heart filled with dread when the robber tried to drag her.
" Well well. Guess you pigs don't have any work ethics, huh?"
Everyone was startled as they saw Jun Tianyun walking towards the robber casually.
The robber raised his gun and pointed at Jun Tianyun. " Someone trying to be a hero in this situation, huh?"
" You rich punk, You think you can just waltz here and save the beauty from the distress?"
" Why not?" Jun Tianyun shrugged as he rubbed his wrist, wearing the scarab bracelet elegantly.
" You are talking like it's some sort of monumental feat."
" Young Master, I am really amazed. You purchased such magic tools at such cheap price? How did you do that?"
" Maybe I just got some really sharp eyes?" Jun Tianyun laughed.
" Anyway, Let's go back. I don't want to think what Elder Sister might do if she gets too frustrated."

Meanwhile, inside the vault.
Barry Burton was stunned when he saw the gauntlet on the auction.
' That gauntlet, it's giving me such a strong vibe. If I manage to get that, my breathing technique and strength would increase by quite a lot!'
However, he was startled when he saw the commotion first. However, since he was working here as a volunteer, he also knew the way to the vault.
When the commotion happened, the vault door was opened.
' Heh. Didn't the manager say all the treasure would be taken in the vault after the auction ends and only from there the guest can take their items?'
' So, If I infiltrate right now, I would be able to get my gauntlets. With that, escaping here would be much easier.'
Thinking that, Bary utilized the energy in his body and concealed his presence, rushing inside the vault.
' Where it is...WHERE IT IS?!'
Looking around frantically, Barry saw numerous items. However, the pair of gauntlets were nowhere to be found.
' Damn it! Where it is? Don't tell me it's not here?'
Suddenly hearing the footsteps, Barry became alarmed. Without any hesitation, he grabbed some nearby jewellaries and a small box and stuffed them into his bag.
However, when he was trying to get out, he caught the eyes of one of the robbers.
" Hey you! Stop there!"
Barry halted his steps as he raised his arms. " Please! Do-Don't hurt me! I am just a worker here."
" Is that so?"
Two of the robbers came to him and kicked him, making him fall to the ground.
" Didn't you hear the command? What the fuck you doing here, huh?"
" Fuck, I don't know why but seeing you making me angry!"
And just like that, our future young knight got beaten into a pulp.
Barry curled on the ground as he turned into a swollen pig. However, he didn't dare to do anything as he could see the guns on the robbers.
' Endure it, Barry! Endure it! One day, you will pay back all of them!'
