NOVPUBWatching Daniel drive out two supercars one after another, Matt almost fainted with anger.
Wasn’t this exactly what he had predicted earlier?
Emilia’s face was also red with frustration.
She realized that the bit of red she had spotted through Matt’s telescope earlier was the body of this Ferrari!
The other treasure hunters were also left speechless with shock.
This was way too outrageous.
Who could have thought that under these casually stacked carpets there would be two supercars?
Weren’t they afraid they’d get scratched?
The youngest of the triplet brothers was hopping mad. 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝙗.𝒄𝒐𝒎
"See! Do you see that?!"
"I told you he must have spotted something about this container, and now he’s scored big again!" the youngest brother ranted.
The eldest didn’t respond.
He had made the decision to back out, and at this moment, he was quietly blaming himself.
If he hadn’t been so cautious, it might not have been Daniel who won the container.
But the second brother’s words lifted his spirits: "Little bro, you need to understand, we simply don’t have the financial means to compete with Daniel."
The youngest one was quick-tempered, but he soon realized his elder brother was right.
He sighed, "Looks like we three brothers aren’t fated to make a fortune."
The Abel Allen brothers fell silent.
They too didn’t expect two supercars could come out of the container.
And they knew clearly, even if they had known beforehand, they wouldn’t have been able to outbid Daniel.
Of course, they admitted defeat wholeheartedly.
After all, Daniel was able to bid because he had noticed something.
Allen said with a strange expression, "I’m starting to suspect whether Dan has X-ray vision. He always manages to find valuable stuff."
Abel laughed and added, "In any case, you can’t judge this guy by normal standards."
The viewers in Daniel’s live stream room were blown away when they saw the two supercars.
"Holy crap, is that a Ferrari and a McLaren?"
"Could they be just shells?"
"The streamer even started the engines, and you still suspect they’re fake?"
"I’m starting to believe the rumors on the internet now, the people from DubaiXpanse are damn rich, they even toss away supercars!"
"Wonder which prince’s toys have been picked up by the streamer."
"Damn that streamer’s luck, it’s off the charts!"
Daniel looked at the two supercars and used the system for appraisal.
Although he had already calculated their prices, he was still amazed when he saw the results.

[Item]: Ferrari LaFir (Global Limited Edition)
[Age]: Modern
[Condition]: Well-maintained
[Detail]: Powered by a 6.8L 12v naturally aspirated engine, it can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 1.8 seconds. It’s one of the ten most expensive cars in the world.
[Appraisal]: It’s damn fast!
[Market Price]: 15.6 million StellarCoins.
[Buyback Price]: 9.36 million StellarCoins.
Both cars were global limited editions.
Their prices are well over 15 million StellarCoins.
They’re truly toys for princes. On site, people quickly recognized the models of the supercars.
When Allen mentioned the models and their prices, everyone was shocked.
"Just as you’d expect from DubaiXpanse, they discard supercars like it’s nothing!"
"I’ve decided. I’m moving to DubaiXpanse to be a hobo tomorrow. Maybe I’ll pick up a few supercars."
"Man, I really regret it now. I could’ve afforded the 110,000 StellarCoins. If only I had persisted and bid higher, I would be rolling in dough!"
The treasure hunters were all filled with regret.
But the ones with the biggest regrets were Matt and Emilia.
They proved the saying, "outsmarting oneself" through their actions.
They watched as a container worth tens of millions of StellarCoins slipped through their fingers, taken by Daniel.
The resentment Matt felt towards Daniel was indescribable.
It was as if Daniel was sent by God to oppose him, he never had any luck whenever Daniel was around.
Soon, Robert led the others to the next container up for auction.
Daniel stayed behind under the pretense of dealing with the supercars.
He temporarily closed the livestream and used the system to recycle the cars.
With no surveillance or people around, he didn’t have to worry about being seen.
As the supercars disappeared, the system’s voice rang in Daniel’s ears.
[You have gained 19.36 million StellarCoins!]
[You have gained a Universal Driving Skill (Land Vehicles Only)]
[You have gained 1936 exchange points.]
Daniel was pleased with the StellarCoins and exchange points.
The new skill he obtained made him grin from ear to ear.
According to the system, the Universal Driving Skill allows him to master any land vehicle without needing to learn and his skills far surpass top drivers.
That means Daniel can easily handle any land vehicle, be it a tank or armored car.
He can even drift a car or cook with an excavator.
Recycling these two supercars was so worth it.
Daniel glanced at the exchange points.
If he recycled goods worth another 80 million StellarCoins, he could accumulate 10,000 StellarCoins.
If he exchanged for an ancient language technology of a civilization, he could unlock a secret that might potentially change the course of humanity!
Daniel was getting more and more excited.
Soon, the next auction started.
As soon as Daniel found the crowd, he heard Robert announcing in front of the crowd.
"This container comes from Aegyptia."
"Since it has been unclaimed for a long time, it has been put up for auction."
The treasure hunters were already used to Robert’s usual spiel and urged impatiently, "Stop blabbing and get on with it!"
"Less talk, more action. Let’s see what’s in the container!"
Even though Robert was interrupted, he didn’t get angry.
The more impatient these people were, the easier they were to provoke.
This was the kind of crowd he enjoyed most.
"Alright, alright, as per usual, first observe, then unbox!"
Under the staff’s operation, the container was soon opened.
When everyone saw what was in the container, they were all agape.
What came into view was an enormous coffin with a strong ancient Egyptian style, with a figure wrapped in bandages lying on it.
It was unmistakably a mummy!
And on either side of the coffin, there were various pyramid-style items.
Matt loved these oddities the most.
He was at the entrance of the container, scrutinizing the items inside, even using his binoculars for a closer look.
"These items, they’re quite rare." Emilia approached, "Are they all movie props?"
Matt responded while continuing his observation, "They are definitely props, but it’s their craftsmanship that determines their value."
The triplet brothers also came over.
The youngest looked at the mummy on the coffin and curiously asked, "Could it be real?"
The second brother laughed, "Just when I thought you’ve gained some brains. Of course, it’s a movie prop."
"But even as props, they could be worth a decent sum of money. Without considering their craftsmanship, this container should be worth at least 50,000 StellarCoins."
The youngest was surprised, "That valuable?"
Abel and Allen also came over.
After a few looks, Abel said, "This is interesting. I have a friend who deals with movie props. He might be interested."
Allen quickly said, "Then hurry up and ask him. If the price is right, we will be decisive and secure this with the highest bid."
Abel took out his phone and went to the side to make a call.
Daniel originally wasn’t interested in this container.
Just movie props, there wasn’t much of a bargain to find.
Recycling them through the system wouldn’t gain him much exchange points.
Just as he was turning his head in boredom, a voice suddenly came from the container, "Hand over the Necronomicon, and I will spare your life!" It was raspy and cold.
Daniel quickly turned back, staring at the container in shock.
But he found nothing unusual.
The coffin remained a coffin, the mummy still motionless.
The treasure hunters at the entrance of the container were still discussing the value of the goods.
It seemed like he was the only one who heard the voice.
Was it a hallucination? Daniel let out a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, the raspy and cold voice echoed in his ear again, "Hand over the Necronomicon, and I will spare your life!"
Daniel jumped, spinning around on the spot.
There was no one around him, but he heard it loud and clear, the voice was right beside his ear, so close!
What was going on?
Was he really hallucinating?
Daniel’s eyes landed on the mummy lying in the container.
If anything was suspicious, it had to be the mummy.
But Daniel didn’t want to believe it.
This was different from aliens; there’s no possibility for mummies to exist.
They were clearly fictional elements from movies and TV shows.
But the voice, it echoed in Daniel’s ear once more.
