Chapter 258: The Angry Zhu Yanan
Translator: Cucumber Strips Editor: Jacky
“50 million!”
“60 million!”
“70 million!”
“75 million!”
“80 million!”
“90 million!”
“100 million! I will bid 100 million points!”
The bidding process was very crazy, in the blink of an eye it already passed the 100 million
mark . Especially the four-big beast tamer clans, they were going all out since they couldn’t get
the first one, and they placed all the resources and attention on the finale #3 . As a result, the
price was skyrocketing .
“110 million!” Ma Wanli shouted . He was also just going all out . Originally, the highest budget
for the clan was just 100 million, but seeing #3’s extraordinary strength, he decided to gamble
once .
“120 million!”
“125 million!”
“130 million!”
All the representatives of the four major clans all stood up, face all red, raising the auction
center’s historic record over and over .
If the 100 million price for #2 was astronomical, then what was happening with #3 was just
madness . When the price reached past 100 million, these crazy people didn’t even blink .
“150 million!”
“160 million!”
“180 million! Come at me!”
“190 million! It’s mine!”
“200 million!”
Rumble~
The audiences felt dizzy . 200 million, it’s past the 200 million mark! Are these people even
planning to live after this auction?
Looking back at #3, it was still calm and motionless, completely without a care about these
humans crazily bidding over it .
“210 million!” Ma Wanli darkened his face and shouted . This price was already twice his original
budget .
Wanli budget was smaller than other people’s . The 210 million bid didn’t hold
for more than a few seconds and it was already pressed down by the Genetic Beast Research
Institute’s offer of 215 million .
Boom~
Ma Wanli sat down helplessly . He knew, he really couldn’t raise the price anymore… This crazy
auction was no longer a game for someone at his level to participate .
Ma Wanli gritted his teeth . Since he couldn’t lay his hands on the genetic beasts, then he was
only left with one last path to go, and that was to bear the risk of being trialed for violating
rules and lay his hand on Han!
“Han, you did not offend me, but you are just too unlucky!” Ma Wanli closed his eyes and
muttered silently .
Inside guest room #1, Jian Jia glanced as his father . At this moment, the bid competition was

approaching an end, leaving only two parties left that still had the resources to compete . One
was the Pegasus Institute, and the other one was the Genetic Beast Research Institute . As for
Beast Speaker Hall and Soul Beast Hall, they both no longer had the strength to compete
anymore .
The overlord for Pegasus Institute was an old researcher with no expression on his face . He
indicated his bid with hand gestures . As for the Genetic Beast Research Institute, the overlord
was a middle-aged man with triangular eyes . His voice was hoarse, carrying hints of
insidiousness .
The two continued to raise the price, and when the number reached 265 million, the old
researcher from Pegasus Institute finally let out a long sigh, smiled bitterly and shook his head .
At this point, Pegasus Institute also didn’t have the financial resources to continue competing
anymore .
“Dad!” Jian Jia suddenly whispered beside his father’s ear .
Uncle Shui slightly nodded, indicating that he understood what Jian Jia meant . He was about to
raise his right hand .
At this moment, Zhu Yanan who was observing on the side suddenly jumped up and then
shouted again, “300 million points!”
After all, it was 300 million points! Zhu Yanan’s voice was clearly shivering a little, but he still
tried to suppress the excitement in his heart and make himself look calm .
Shua~
“What? 300 million?!”
“Why is it this kid again? Who is he?”
“Sitting at the most noble Room #1, I think he probably comes from a big background . ”
When everyone’s attention fell on Zhu Yanan once again, the pain he felt from bringing out
such a large sum of money dissipated . Now he felt like he was floating again and became
arrogant .
“Yanan, what’s the meaning of this?” Uncle Shui slightly frowned and asked .
Zhu Yanan straightened his back and said, “Nothing, since Jian Jia likes this genetic beast, then I
will buy it and give it to him as a gift . ”
“Humph, who needs you to gift it . It’s not like I can’t buy it myself, right dad?” Jian Jia said with
a little temper .
Mr . Shui thought for a second, smiled and said, “It’s okay, he means well anyways . Since it’s a
gift for you, then you take it . ”
Jian Jia bit his lips a bit, then a little reluctantly nodded his head .
300 million points, that was a bit too crazy . Even the triangular eyed overlord from the Genetic
Beast Research Institute finally became silent . With his fists tightly clenched, like a defeated

cock, a strange light flashed across his eyes .
The mad auction finally ended, and manager Katyn hurried to room #1 because she heard that
the noble Mr . Shui wanted to talk to her .
Pushing the door open, Katyn stood on the side respectfully .
Mr . Shui said in a deep voice, “You are doing a great job here . I’ve looked at the past record of
this auction house, the profit has been growing . When I go back, I will report everything I saw
to the higherups . ”
“Thank you, sir . ” Katyn said in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing
Nodding, Mr . Shui continued, “These two numbered genetic beasts are a bit interesting, can you
make some arrangement to let me meet its creator before I depart?”
Katyn hesitated for a second, then replied, “Sir, didn’t you already meet him?”
Mr . Shui was completely confused, “Who did I meet?”
Katyn replied, “Han, the number-series genetic beasts all came from his hands . ”
Katyn’s words silenced the whole room .
Zhu Yanan’s face became completely pale, “You said the number-series genetic beasts are all
made by that brat Han?”
Katyn replied, “That’s right, I saw you buying Han’s work at such a high price . I even thought
you guys were friends and you were helping him out, could it be that you don’t know about
this?”
Zhu Yanan shouted with no demeanor at all, “How the f*ck did I know! If I knew it was made by
Han, then I would rather throw that money away instead of buying his sh*t!”
Mr . Shui slightly frowned on the side, and Zhu Yanan suddenly felt a chill in his heart . He was
way too gaffe . After pretending to be a nice person for too long, he still couldn’t help but expose
his true nature .
Zhu Yanan really wanted to find a crack on the floor and crawl into it . His points was only
enough to buy the genetic beast #2, and he had to borrow from his family clan to buy the third
one .
This was clearly borrowing money for Han to spend! He was feeling so triumphant just a few
minutes ago, and didn’t expect retribution to come this fast .
What was even more exasperating was, now Zhu Yanan’s heavily in debt, and he didn’t even get
a good impression in front of Jian Jia and Mr . Shui . This really crushed his heart and made him
want to cry .
“Huh? It’s actually made by Han?! I didn’t know he also has that kind of skill!” Jian Jia said with
a little fox face . At this moment, he forgot that he just had an argument with Han, and the
expression on his face was clearly admiration for Han .
Zhu Yanan severely bit his tongue, secretly scolding himself for being an idiot . Borrowing
money to buy Han’s genetic beasts to gift to Jian Jia, there’s really nothing that can measure
this level of stupidity .
But who knew that the following words from Jian Jia was even more hurtful . He just squinted
his eyes and said, “If I knew it was made by him, I can just ask him to make one or two for me
for free . Oh right, dad, you said Han looked familiar, and do you know why?”
Mr . Shui asked in curiosity, “Why?”
“Because he is the guy that fought off the insects with me and saved the Border Legion! At that
time, he was the commander on the battlefield . I told you before, and you actually forgot!”
Mr . Shui was shocked and said with a surprised expression, “Oh it was him! No wonder I
thought he looked so familiar!”
Jian Jia spoke again, “I was just fighting alongside him and was heavily rewarded by you, but
Han was the commander at the time, shouldn’t you show some gratitude as well?”
“Yes . ” Mr . Shui heavily nodded, “You are very right, although Han is not officially a member of
the Corporation yet, but there’s an exception for everything . Don’t worry, you dad is always
very clear with rewards . Talents like Han who are also responsible, I will not let him be treated
badly . ”
Zhu Yanan’s face became even darker . Gritting his teeth, his heart was full of endless anger .
“Go now, I have something else to do . I will meet Han again before I leave . ” Mr . Shui said to Jian
Jia .
“Ok . ”
Zhu Yanan was just like a mindless zombie following behind Mr . Shui and Jian Jia . After Jian Jia
knew that Han created those popular genetic beasts, his mood clearly drastically improved, and
he just kept on complimenting Han in front of his father .
Mr . Shui kept nodding nonstop . At that time when Han led the nameless army and fought their
way in and out of the insect tsunami, and saved the Border Legion and the entire defense line,
there was no higher-up in the All Gods Corporation that didn’t hear about it .
Mr . Shui originally had a very good impression of Han, and after today, learning that Han was
not just a genius commander and fighter, but also a talented beast tamer, his impression of Han
became even better .
But those words were just like knives stabbing Zhu Yanan in the chest, not allowing him to
breath .
When passing through the atrium, Zhu Yanan waved secretly, and then a dark guard from his
family came over .
“Find Han, I want his life!” Zhu Yanan whispered bitterly .

Marrow
Marrow was old... older than me or you. Older than the nation he lived in. And older than anyone he knew. Which is not surprising, because he did not know anyone else. He had been sitting, or perhaps leaning is the more apt expression, in a closet for many, many years, and had done nothing but stare. But eating, or rather chewing, a spider opened up another world to him. A world with a voice that was talking to him - to HIM! Marrow did not get what the voice was saying, but that was secondary at this point. And Marrow started to feel restless. Nuff said. If you like a sometimes quirky skeleton as the main character and want to ride along for its coming of age, or perhaps rather coming of sapience story... give it a shot. It is a litrpg context with skills, levels, heroes and monsters... and a skeleton. Not sure yet how fast the skeleton will level... we'll have to wait and see. As a disclaimer... this is my secondary novel... my main story is ongoing and most of my time is dedicated to that. As such, new chapters will, at first, be rather infrequent and irregular. If things go well, I may shift more attention to the story, but we shall see how things go.

Dungeons & Demons
*!* This story is currently being continued on a different page, following years of hiatus and extensive rewrites *!* Please follow the link to read the up-to-date version: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/53863/cycles-of-ruin Basil von Doom is a powerful dungeon keeper with a simple mission: to bring ruin and destruction upon civilized worlds at the height of their decadence and stagnation. Much like his father before him, the new master of House Doom is a prodigy of war, yet the venerable minions of his household still hold strange loyalties toward his missing ancestor, silently comparing the legendary rage of his father to the more pragmatic approach of the son. Adding to Basil’s frustrations is the lack of accomplishment he feels for his work, with the dungeon keeper often taking on handicaps just to give his enemies a fighting chance. With all the power and wealth one could ever dream of already within his grasp, Basil now finds that the achievements of others kindle more joy in his heart than his own crushing victories. Thus Basil has taken up mentoring the next generation of dungeon keepers to try and diagnose the cause for his own lack of passion. With his apprentice, Elnora, managing most of the daily work around the dungeon, Basil can finally turn his attention towards his personal concerns, such as tackling the shadow of his legendary father that still looms large over him.
