I Regenerate 10,000 Times Faster-Chapter 148: Insanity

"Who is in the Death Gate City? Get him to go to the auction now! We must have the enhanced Atomic Serum at all costs," Donson shouted angrily at his staff in the meeting room.

Without the enhanced Atomic Serum, the Donald Group could face the possibility of being replaced. After all, the marketing of Atomic Serum was one of the important businesses of the Donald Group.

A hundred people in the meeting room hurriedly made contact with their staff, making sure that they were taking part in the auction for the enhanced Atomic Serum. This did not just happen at the Donald Pharmaceutical Group, but included the six major pharmaceutical groups, and all of the top families.

What they had thought was only a joke in the beginning, turned out to be real! It was as if God had played a trick on them, only that trick was a bit too much!

The representatives and the top families at the auction laughed excitedly, as if a pie had fallen from the sky. Meanwhile, others were doing everything they could to participate in the auction as well.

In fact, it was the first time in their lives that these people, who were present at the scene of the auction, had an advantage over the big consortiums and the top families!

...

The influential forces were trying all sorts of ways to gain access to the auction. Those who had received an invitation but did not bother to come quickly regretted their decisions.

If they had known that the enhanced Atomic Serum had passed the patent application from the Chemists Guild, they would've already been here a long time ago.

Even though they had already investigated the Tronic Group and the enhanced Atomic Serum through the Alchemy Guild, the patent application had not yet been approved, so they were not able to find the answers that they were looking for.

Right now, the auction had already started, and even if they had an invitation, it was too late for them to enter. On the other hand, the top families and corporate representatives present were elated, as the enhanced Atomic Serum was bound to soon belong to one of them!

Meanwhile, once the news about the patent had spread, Briston's phone immediately started ringing nonstop, with countless video calls and voice calls flooding in. It nearly crashed his smart manager! freёweɓnovel.com

Briston released a huge breath and, as a bright smile appeared on his face, he said, "It's too late to enter the auction now, so block them all and do not let any calls through."

At this moment, he felt proud and happy, as if he could walk with his head held high. Before, all these people did not care to attend the auction personally and were even prepared to laugh and watch Tronic Mall make a joke of itself. But now, it was their turn to beg for entry!

"Nicolas, let's begin the auction," Briston told Nicolas, smiling.

On the auction stage, Nicolas received the message with a bright smile on his face, then said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that you have all verified the authenticity of the patent rights. So, let's get down to business and start the auction! The starting price is 100 thousand. Any increments should be below…"

Nicolas hadn't even finished speaking when someone started bidding.

"1 million!"

Nicolas smiled, the price had actually increased by 10 times already! Nicolas said, "Young master Harry has offered 1 million, is anyone offering more?"

"1.5 million!"

"2 million!"

"The Podell Group, offering 5 million!" Hue said suddenly, raising the bidding price all the way to 5 million.

At this, a lot of representatives from the small and medium enterprises were shocked. They were mostly local enterprises around Death Gate City, and even though 5 million was no small sum, they could still manage to afford it.

However, the Podell Group was considered a mid tier enterprise in Blue swirl continent, so compared to them, these smaller companies were negligible. Besides, they did not dare to bid against the Podell Group, as even if they got lucky and managed to get the enhanced Atomic Serum, it would be easy for the Podell Group to employ a commercial ban on them, thus forcing them to hand over the serum.

Hence, most of the corporate representatives remained silent, leaving the bidding to the big tycoons.

"I offer 5.5 million," Blair said suddenly. "The Podell Group does not dabble in serums, so are you guys intending to expand into the serum market?"

The people in the Death Gate City all knew that the Serena family had supported a lot of local pharmaceutical groups and companies in the past. As she was part of such a political family, Blair had a huge influence on most of the Death Gate City's political decisions.

As such, no matter how strong the Podell Group was, they would be unable to override that kind of power. Therefore, Blair was not afraid of the Podell Group at all.

Hue's expression remained unchanged as he said, "6 million, Mrs. Blair. Everyone knows that whoever masters the enhanced Atomic Serum, controls this continent's future. On this matter, I will never back down."

"Bart Group, 10 million!" Right at this moment, Woodsen, who had been silent all along, raised the price to 10 million.

The whole place was abuzz.

"Has Bart Group actually gone mad?"

"Even if the drug efficacy of the enhanced Atomic Serum is perfect, it is still not worth 1 million, not to mention 10 million! This is pure insanity!"

"It seems that Bart Group wants to surpass the other five pharmaceutical giants in one fell swoop to become the one and only king."

As a matter of fact, these onlookers were not too far from the truth, as Woodsen was sent as the representative for this auction, having just received orders to purchase the serum, no matter the cost.

Years ago, the Wyatt Pharmaceutical Group had managed to become the pharmaceutical industry's king via the original Atomic Serum.
