The orc girl realized that her figure was completely exposed to Mike’s eyes, so she blushed and nodded her head lightly.

  After changing into Mike’s old clothes, the orc girl said.

  “Can you take me with you? I can help you with anything. I’m very diligent in doing things. Besides, I only need very little food to eat. It’s very easy to feed me.”


  The orc girl’s voice became softer and softer, and suddenly, Mike understood.

  The orc girl in front of him really had no one else to rely on but herself.

  “My name is Mike. That big guy over there is Tegpus. What’s your name?”


  Mike asked gently.

  “My name is Qiqi.”


  “Then how about this, Qiqi, you come with us into the city first. I’ll help you settle everything. Once everything is stable, you can go look for your family. What do you think?”


  Mike stretched out his hand and looked sincerely at Qiqi.

  Qiqi looked at the handsome silver-haired youth in front of her and subconsciously stretched out her hand.

  “Alright, this isn’t a place for romance. Let’s hurry back to the auction and look for Lansi!

  “After all, we still have a huge amount of wealth left with her!”


  Hearing Tegpus’ words, Mike and Qiqi’s faces turned even redder.

  Although they were holding hands, they did not dare to look at each other.

  “Well, then let’s go!”


  Mike whispered.

  …


  Mike, Tagopus, and Qiqi returned to the Romon Auction Hall from the secret passage.

  Lansi had been waiting here for a long time.

  When she saw Mike return with Qiqi and Tegpus, Lansi instantly understood what had happened.

  “Master Tegpus,” Lansi said to Tegpus.

  “Master Tegpus, I know you’re very strong, but are you sure you want to go against the Throne?”


  “And even if you insist on doing this, why did you drag brother Mike along?”


  Lansi saw that Mike was still holding Qiqi’s hand, and her heart ached. She turned her head to look into the distance.

  “Actually, I agreed with him. Even if Master Tegpus didn’t say so, I would have done the same thing.”


  Seeing that Mike had said this, Lansi did not say anything more.

  “Lansi, don’t worry. No matter how much the Throne investigates, it won’t be able to find us. Just before we planned to attack Caesar, two people had already gotten to them first.”


  Lansi’s mood improved slightly when she heard Tegpus say this.

  “Where are our things?”


  Tegpus asked.

  “Follow me.”


  Lansi led everyone through the hall and came to the backstage area.

  Lansi came to a stone wall and turned the bronze lamp that was nailed to the wall.

  A secret door on the wall slowly opened.

  “This is the warehouse of the unauctioned items in our Romon Auction. You can go in and pick an item to take with you.”


  Lansi said.

  Mike and Tegpus entered the secret door.

  At this time, Mike’s system notifications kept appearing, analyzing the attributes of each item for Mike.

  “What kind of rubbish is this? Mike, why do I feel like I’ve been tricked?”


  Mike did not pay any attention to Tegpus’ complaints.

  To be more precise, it was because he was too focused on reading the system notifications and did not hear Tegpus’ complaints.

  Mike quickly read every piece of information that the system notification brought to his attention.

  However, the quality of these auction items was generally low.

  Either they were low-grade metals that could be seen everywhere, or they were equipment with obvious flaws that even laymen could see at a glance.

  Suddenly, a system notification flashed before Mike’s eyes.

  [ System notification: Primordial Spirit Grass, quality undetectable. Primordial Spirit Grass has absorbed the essence of Heaven, Earth, Sun, and Moon for a thousand years. It has extremely high medicinal value and can be used to refine pills of king level or above. ]

  Mike felt a burst of joy.

  “This is it!”


  Mike said.

  Tegpus looked at the Primordial Spirit Grass in Mike’s hand and said, “Isn’t this just a piece of torn grass? What can it do? Look at this grass, it has already dried up to this extent. Can it really be of value?”


  Facing Tegpus’ question, Mike nodded confidently and said, “Believe me, Tegpus, my judgment is definitely correct!”


  Tegpus did not refute Mike’s words and said.

  “Alright then. You’re the one who has chosen to buy it. It’s good that you like it then.”


  Mike walked out with the Primordial Spirit Grass and Tegpus.

  When Lansi saw that Mike had chosen such an item, she said to Mike, “So, you’ve chosen the Primordial Spirit Grass.”


  “Although I know there’s nothing good in here, you wouldn’t go so far as to just take out some grass.

  “Why don’t I take you to the auction unit that hasn’t been auctioned yet?”


  Lansi offered.

  “There’s no need. I’ll take it.”


  Mike said.

  “As long as Miss Lansi doesn’t regret it.”


  Hearing Mike’s words, Lansi smiled and said, “How could I regret it? I’m so happy that you chose something like this!”


  Lansi took out a gold card and handed it to Mike.

  “This is your money, a total of six point four eight billion. Take a look.”


  Mike took the gold card and put it into his pocket without even looking at it.

  “There’s no need. I believe in Miss Lansi’s character. She wouldn’t do such a thing as cheat me.”


  Lansi smiled and continued to speak when she saw Mike say this.

  “Alright, since the business matter has been settled, let’s discuss this girl’s problem now.”


  Lansi looked at Qiqi.

  Qiqi was the first to speak.

  “I want to be with Lord Mike.”


  Lansi’s expression turned ugly when she heard this.

  Lansi said, “You’re a girl. How can you so easily want to live with a stranger you’ve only just met?”


  After Lansi said that, Tegpus refuted her.

  “Lansi girl, do you still have the nerve to refute Qiqi? Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking?”


  After listening to the three people’s words, Mike, who was at the center of public opinion, lowered his head and blushed.

  Seeing that everyone was at a stalemate, Lansi said, “How about this? I’ll allow Qiqi to stay in my auction house.”


  Everyone quickly agreed to Lansi’s suggestion.

  Before Mike and Tegpus left, Qiqi reluctantly said goodbye to Mike.

  “You must come and see me, Lord Mike!”


  Qiqi said shyly.

  “Remember to come and see me too!”


  Lansi looked at Mike who was far away and made a gesture of blowing a kiss.

  At this time, the sky had already broken and the whole world was gradually brightening up.

  Mike and Tegpus were rushing back to the Adventurer’s Academy.

  After arriving at the school, Mike parted ways with Tegpus.

  “Mike, you should be attending the freshmen trials next week, right?”


  Tegpus asked.

  Mike nodded in reply.

  “Then, you’ll have to work hard!”
