Chapter 738: "Going To The Mysterious Treasure Island"

The words 'live auction' were so eye-catching that Ainsley even had to block her eyes with her palm because it was too dazzling. 

For a moment, the baby was in a trance. 

...live auction? What the heck is that? 

Ainsley immediately looked for the details, and the mafia council kindly provided the details right below the two huge words. 

[Live auction: each participant will present one item to be auctioned, and the ranking will be released according to the item's final price in the auction.] 

[This auction is nationwide because not only the guests on the set can bid, but others can as well. The entire auction thing will be broadcast live!] 

[Top 10 families that provide the most valuable item will be the final winner!] 

[Of course, the item or money you get from the auction will belong to you. The mafia council only takes 5% of the income as a commercial fee.] 

Ainsley read the introduction and was in a daze for a few seconds. 

...an auction that involves the whole country? It's not only for the mafia? Non-mafia can also participate in the auction? 

What's the mafia council's goal, ah?? 

Ainsley didn't know that the mafia council was using this chance to put pressure on other non-mafia forces through the item that the participants would auction off. 

When the bidders see that the items are excellent and rare, they will realise just how powerful the mafia families are. 

Not to mention that the mafia society also required the non-mafia to pay for an 'entrance fee' if they wanted to join the auction. 

Of course, the mafia council would spread the news about the grand auction and what kind of item might be auctioned off. 

[The tournament's 35 participants have one week to prepare an item for the auction, and the auction will be held for three days.] 

[Right after that, we will announce the top ten families, and the winners will be crowned before the new year celebration.] 

The mafia council wouldn't ask the participants what kind of item they would auction off, and that means the bidders wouldn't know anything about the things auctioned off. 

But that mystery element was what put a huge pressure on the participants. 

The auction would be broadcast nationwide! If they presented a so-so item, wouldn't their family become a laughing stock? 

Right, the mafia council also said that fellow participants could try to bid for the items too. 

Wouldn't it be too shameful if the fellow participants looked down on one item at the auction? 

Whoever provided that item would die of shame. 

But if they could present a perfect item, not only could they gain a connection with both mafia and non-mafia forces, they could also gain prestige as a high-ranking family candidate. 

The participants were going crazy. 

Each of the families sent their elites to find treasures, and the mafia council themselves already announced the nationwide auction. 

The media spread the exciting news, and many forces inside the country paid attention to this grand event. Even the government side wasn't an exception. 

They might even want to participate in the auction to take whatever good items from the mafia families. 

If there's an item that could threaten the mafia family, why wouldn't the government buy it even when the seller was also a mafia? 

This was also another issue looming over the tournament's participants. 

The 35 families worked hard to find an item that wouldn't be dangerous to their mafia society but was valuable enough for everyone, not limited to a certain type of powerhouse. 

Since the others had started to find treasures for the grand auction, how could Ainsley not make a move? 

That night, right after her 7-day break ended, she held a meeting with the Sloan Family's higher-ups. 

"Everyone, all of you must have read the mafia council's announcement, right?" 

"Yes!" 

"Hum. It means that we have to find an extremely valuable item...and I have an idea." 

Ainsley slowly took out the land deed she got from the potion auction several months ago and put the document on the table. 

When the higher-ups saw the land deeds, their eyes widened in sunrise. 

"This...is the land deed of the mysterious island?" One of the higher-ups couldn't help but comment. 

Yes, it was the mysterious island that a certain family gave up on because they couldt make use of the island despite the rumours…

The island is rumoured to be a huge treasure island! 

But it was so dangerous and only a few could dig out the treasures. Still, each of the treasures was valuable enough to shake the whole country. 

Some treasures could even attract the non-human races! 

"Boss...you want to visit this island and find a suitable item to be auctioned off?" 

When someone asked that, Ainsley didn't hesitate to nod. 

"Yes. I think I'm quite lucky. So...I want to try my luck and find some treasures there…" 

The island was quite far, but it only required two days using a flying carriage. Four days to go back and forth, three days to search for treasures…

Exactly 7 days, the deadline set by the mafia council. 

Actually, Ainsley didn't think of visiting the island since she couldn't use her luck manipulation ability so freely anymore, but the Godfather told her to go. 

[This lord got some valuable treasures there. This island will be really good for you and your family.] 

Recalling the Godfather's words, Ainsley looked at her people and gulped. 

"So...I want to create an expedition team to go with me. I need around 50 people." 

The Godfather wanted Ainsley to go, but he also said that the island was truly mysteriously dangerous. 

They had to bring some elites in case of accidents!
