My Waste Husband -
Chapter 1048
Chapter 1048
The blonde-haired lady's eyes revealed a look of struggle.
After about a couple of dozen seconds, the blonde inhaled deeply and said, "Alright, I'll take it."
The blonde took out a Spiritual Stone that was about three cubic centimetres from her pocket. This was the standard size set by the Recluse Association. A Spiritual Stone was basically about the size of that.
The blond-haired lady was just about to hand the stone over to the stall owner.
Henry, who was watching from the side, suddenly said, "Hold on!"
Henry's sudden voice stopped the blondhaired girl in her tracks.
The onlookers, the blond and the owner, all looked at Henry.
Henry looked at the stall owner and said, "Hey, old man, what's the fun in lying to a little girl?"
"Lying?" The owner frowned are looked coldly at Henry. "Boy, do you even understand what you're saying?"
"Of course I do." Henry nodded. He pointed at the hide that was been sold by the stall owner. "That thing is just an ordinary hide that has been mixed with some snake blood and had some tough tendons add to it, making it seem extremely tough, but the moment you remove those tendons and dry it, it will be as fragile as a face wipes that had been dried in sun after being soaked in water. You really are making a fortune by selling it off for a Spiritual Stone."
Upon hearing Henry's words, the owner's face darkened.
The person who had said that the piece of hide was a good deal squeezed over to Henry and sneered, "Boy, you're a just a weakling who doesn't even have the ability to control Qi. What makes you credible enough to say that?"
The blonde stared furiously at the vendor. "Tell me honestly, this item you're selling me, is it exactly just as he said?"
"Of course not." The owner shook his head.
"Master Leng, I'll leave the rest to you." Henry motioned to Flynn with his lips.
Flynn nodded and reached out to hold the animal hide.
Seeing that Flynn's hand was about to touch the hide, the owner suddenly shot a palm at Flynn and said, "Who allowed you to touch it? Keep your hands off!"
The stall owner's speed was too fast for Flynn, who was only in the Qi- controlling Realm, to react. At the critical moment, Henry secretly tugged at Flynn so that he could evade the palm of the owner. However, this also proved that the owner really had something up his sleeve.
The blond-haired lady was no fool. She, too, noticed that something was definitely wrong with the hide. She quickly kept the Spiritual Stone and glared angrily at the stall owner. "Very well, you really were lying!"
Seeing that the Spiritual Stone had escaped from his grasp, the stall owner's eyes locked onto Henry and Flynn.
The accomplice of the stall owner who goaded the blond on appeared behind their backs quietly, blocking their path of retreat.
"What's up? Planning to kill us out of anger?" Henry said in a carefree manner.
"Haha, since when did you have two experts checking out this trading hub?" A chuckle sounded. "Huh? How come they are both of that race?"
When Henry and Flynn heard the voice, they immediately recognised who it belonged to. It was Wyck, who had been slapped repeatedly by Henry back in Sunset Town.
Claudia, who lead Henry and Flynn there, followed behind Wyck at that moment.
After noticing the arrival of Wyck, the stall owner quickly bowed low and greeted him.
Wyck walked over, threw a glance at the stall owner, and snorted. "Useless piece of trash, you can't even create a proper knock- off. What do I even keep you for?" "Forgive me, Lord Wyck!" The stall owner got on his knees instantly and lowered his head.
"F*ck off." Wyck waved his hand impatiently. "Make this your first time and the last. Don't you ever let me see you so useless again."
"Got it, got it." The stall owner nodded his head repeatedly. Then scrambled onto his feet and left hurriedly, as if he was running for his life.
The blonde noticed Wyck, then saw the stall owner scramble away hurriedly, a look of sudden realisation appeared across her face, she exclaimed, "Oh I see, so you were working together to commit fraud!"
Wyck faced the blonde- haired lay, made a standard western greeting gesture, then said, " My beautiful Ms. Robine, that was nothing more than a little prank we played on you. I trust that even your father, Bishop Mercator, would understand."
"I'll definitely speak of this to my father!" Robine said very unhappily.
"Of course." Wyck nodded. "Ms. Robine is free to speak of everything that had happened here, because we never had any ill intentions."
After saying that, Wyck no longer paid attention to Robine, but looked at Henry and Flynn instead. He said, "I'm very curious, how many more people from your despicable race are real deals like you? Do you know what this is? You had a lot to say, didn't you? Come, tell me more. Remember, if you can't, I'll kill you both."
Wyck picked up a bone with barbs all over it.
Henry secretly gestured at Flynn to cooperate with him.
"That's the sternum of Experiment Subject No. 37, it's probably from its adolescent stage." Flynn said after a quick glance.
A surprised look appeared on Wyck's face. Experiment Subject No. 37 was a very rare species. Moreover, when it was still young, this sternum that was full of barbs was hidden deep within the experiment subject's body, very few were able to discover it.
Wyck waved his hand, and a few men walked out from the side. Each of them carried a tray in their hands, and on it were some bizarre items.
"The skeleton of No. 62's hand, No. 28's teeth, the lower ribs of No. 29, No. 16's internal tusks, No. 89's back wing, and No. 54's sternum."
Once again, Flynn took a single glance and casually named the source of the items that had been ordered to be brought out by Wyck.
Flynn said with a bored expression, "They're all pretty common. Don't you have anything more exquisite?"
The look on Wyck's face darkened a little. The items he had brought out were not common as Flynn had said, but were in fact some very rare materials, such as the back wing of Experiment Subject No. 89.
Experiment subject No. 89 was a gigantic mosquito with wings that were as thin as see-through clothing. Moreover, the wings of No. 89 were not structured as a whole, but were instead made up of thousands of tiny parts. It very difficult to be able to collect a complete specimen. 99% of people would basically be unable to even tell what it was by looking a tiny part of it.
On the other hand, Experiment Subject No. 14 was a human-shaped creature. Its sternum was almost completely similar to the one of an ordinary human, and there were approximately ten experimental bodies that had a similar- looking sternum, yet Flynn could still easily recognise it!
"Hahaha, impressive, impressive!" Someone praised loudly.
The moment he heard this voice, Henry's lips curved into a smile. "Heh, after acting for so long, the main target has finally appeared."
Not far away, Dalton strode over as he clapped, laughing loudly along the way.
The moment Dalton appeared, both Wyck and Lila consciously retreated to one side.
