Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 878

The crowd buzzed with feverish whispers, everyone rubbing their hands together, staring hungrily at the Astral Titanium on stage.

Taking in the crowd's reaction, the auctioneer smiled, his voice grand and booming. "That's right! This is an exceedingly rare specialty mineral. The known global reserves are currently less than twenty pounds!"

"To the untrained eye, it's just a rock. But to everyone in this room, its true value is undeniably clear!"

"It is an irreplaceable core material in aerospace, military defense, and cutting-edge microchip development."

"An utterly irreplaceable component!"

"Even a piece this small, if utilized correctly, can trigger a disruptive technological revolution. It could propel a nation's scientific breakthroughs and even sway the global economic pulse!"

He wasn't exaggerating in the slightest.

It was safe to say many people in the room were here solely for this stone.

Once acquired, whether used internally or flipped to a national research institute, it was worth an astronomical fortune.

"To ensure absolute fairness, the bidding rules for this final lot will be different."

The auctioneer raised a hand.

Red lights blinked to life on the consoles in front of every guest.

"The bidding devices at your seats have been activated. The starting price for the Astral Titanium is—five hundred million! Each press of your button adds twenty million! There is no ceiling!"

"Let the bidding begin!"

The moment his voice dropped,

The numbers on the massive screen began to skyrocket frantically.

"Five hundred and twenty million!"

"Six hundred million!"

"Six hundred and sixty million!"

Every single second,

The figure on the screen took massive leaps.

In less than five seconds,

The price had shattered the eight-hundred-million mark.

This Astral Titanium represented tangible, world-altering power.

If used correctly, it was a golden opportunity to elevate an entire family's destiny!

Serena stared at the stone, leaning back lazily against her chair.

This was the exact Astral Titanium Mr. Harrison needed.
