A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 574

Chapter 574 Underestimated You

The fact that Jared could create a fire array within the coin with such ease astounded Boris.

Noticing that something was off about Boris’ expression, Galen whispered, “Mr. Yonce, are you all right?”

“This kid is proficient at magecraft. We’ve underestimated him.”

Boris’ brows pulled together tightly as he frowned.

“What?” Galen exclaimed, incredulous. He looked at Boris in bewilderment.

To be commended by Boris was a testament to one’s abilities, and to receive a compliment at such a young age meant that Jared’s powers were out-worldly.

“What are we going to do?” Galen asked. Panic seeped into his voice.

“We can’t let him look at the Disc of Eight Trigrams. We have to take it and leave this place,” was Boris’ solemn reply.

Nodding vigorously, Galen agreed. “All right!”

Meanwhile, Jared ignored all the jeers and picked up the coin. He rubbed it between his fingers to extinguish the fire and calmly pocketed it.

“Mr. Yonce, please bring the Disc of Eight Trigrams over so we can test if it’s truly just a useless piece of wood.”

Jared stared straight at Boris, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

“Everyone, the kid made a good point just now. Every talisman was once an ordinary object before it was injected with an array. If not for the Array of Eight Trigrams, the Disc of Eight Trigrams is indeed just a piece of wood. But now, not only does it have the Array of Eight Trigrams, but I have also planted a geomancy array. I promise that anyone who basks in the array will live a long and prosperous life,” Boris hurriedly added when he noticed the crowd’s lukewarm attitude toward the disc.

The tactic worked like a charm. In an instant, everyone’s eyes lit up with greed. Even if it really is just a piece of wood, it’ll turn into a treasure once Mr. Yonce injects the geomancy array!

Galen and Boris shared a knowing look as the crowd grew enthusiastic. The feeling of absolute triumph bubbled up within them.

“Mr. Zane, since the object belongs to you, you can call out a price!” Sean prompted.

Jared, who was just about to rebut Boris’ claims, stopped himself when he caught sight of Sean’s eager expression. Since these people are so willing to be scammed, then I’ll leave them be!

“All right, since you’ve all witnessed the power of the Disc of Eight Trigrams, then I’ll start with a hundred million! This auction will only allow a minimum increment of ten million, and the highest bidder will obtain the item!” Galen announced with a raised finger.
