American comics: Old Wolverine, do whatever he wants.

Chapter 53 Victor in the Cage

"Maybe, but I don't remember."

Logan shrugged calmly at Notland.

But Notland still refused to give in. He stared at Logan's face, stroked his chin and murmured, "We must have met before, maybe at a party in the past, but neither of us noticed."

"Maybe."

Logan nodded, showing a cold and indifferent attitude.

But his indifference did not dampen Notland's desire to chat. He moved closer to Logan and whispered, "Are you here for that thing too?"

"what?"

Logan frowned slightly and tilted his head to ask.

"You do not know?"

Notland seemed a little surprised, "Mutants, I thought everyone who attended the auction knew about it."

"Mutant?"

Logan pretended to be surprised, "I thought they were extinct a long time ago."

"not at all."

Notland shook his head. "It's just that the number has become extremely rare."

Logan thought for a moment, glanced at Notland, and asked indirectly, "What type of mutant is this item for auction? If I remember correctly, there are many types of mutants."

"It's a saber-toothed tiger."

Notland saw that Logan seemed interested and immediately became interested. "That guy looks no different from a normal person. He would not attract any attention if he walked on the street. He is a level 4 mutant. There are not many people of this level even when the mutant community was strong decades ago, let alone now."

"interesting."

Logan stroked his chin and murmured, "It's amazing that the organizers were able to get a guy like this."

"Hehe." Notland smiled brightly, with a gleam in his eyes. "How about it, are you interested? Do you want to make an offer later?"

He is Victor's seller. The higher the price of Victor can be raised, the greater his profit will be. For this reason, he has instigated many people.

"Not interested in."

Logan said with a bored look on his face, "I remember those guys were very dangerous. What's the point of buying them back? To be a thug to guard the house? Maybe they will turn their guns around and kill me first."

Such an answer obviously disappointed Notland. He also looked at Logan with some surprise and asked in surprise: "You came here and you don't even know the role of mutants?"

"I don't know." Logan still looked very calm. "I just heard that this auction would be very interesting. It just so happens that I have some free time recently, so I brought my daughter here to relax."

As he spoke, he pointed to Laura sitting next to him.

Notland glanced at Laura, what a strange girl who chose to come to the auction to relax.

Although he was surprised, Notland did not say much. After all, most rich people have their own little hobbies. He continued to promote mutants. "The organs of those guys are very valuable, such as hearts, livers, kidneys, etc. There are also people who pay high prices to collect them on the dark web. You can buy them here and resell them, and you may make a lot of money."

Originally, he wanted to do the same to Victor and contact the buyer on the dark web, but after thinking it over, he felt that it was not safe.

After all, no one knows whether the other party will trade with you using money or negotiate the price with you using bullets. In the end, it is better to choose a safer auction. Although the price will be lower, it is at least safe and stable.

"What are they seeking mutant organs for?"

Logan asked curiously.

"God knows."

Notland shrugged nonchalantly. "Maybe for experiment? Or maybe they want to transplant it into themselves in order to gain certain abilities. Anyway, there will always be people who want to buy it."

The conversation between the two was ended by the sudden dimming of the lights, and the spotlight was given to the auctioneer on the stage. Under the dim lights, Logan clenched his fists, his eyes were filled with murderous intent, and the anger in his heart was erupting wildly in the dim environment.

The mutant X-Men once made tragic sacrifices to protect the world and to protect this group of ignorant people!

But in just a few decades, they went from being admired heroes to being wanted fugitives by everyone, and even their own people became commodities that could be sold openly!
This group of people who were once protected by them have now become so-called successful people who are high above everyone else and are coveting the organs of those former heroes!
Logan clenched his teeth tightly, and his muscles bulged under his suit.

Laura on the side also stared at Notland with her eyes like black grapes, revealing anger.

At the same time, the auction was in full swing. The fifth item was carried onto the auction table by the waiter. Like the previous four items, they were all exquisite antiques from a long time. The auctioneer held up the gavel, introduced the origin and starting price of the antiques, and constantly encouraged the people below to make an offer.

But it was obvious that no one present came for the antiques, and not many people raised their hands to bid. In the end, the item was sold to a wealthy white businessman at a price 20% higher than the starting price.

"Congratulations to Mr. No. 67 for successfully bidding for this exquisite sword. Next, we will present one of the highlights of this auction, a very rare and precious collection. I believe everyone present will be very interested in it!"

The lights at the scene began to flicker as the auctioneer gave his passionate speech.

At the same time, a waiter crouched over to Notland and whispered something in his ear. Notland then stood up and left with an excited look on his face. Before leaving, he raised his eyebrows to Logan beside him and said, "The highlight is coming!"

Logan frowned and looked at Notland's back.

The auctioneer on the stage shouted excitedly, "Let us invite the sixth lot tonight to the stage!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge cage was lifted up by six servants.

The specially made cage is made of thick heavy iron on the top and bottom, and thick steel bars in the middle.

Inside the cage, there was a man with his limbs tied with huge chains.

His unkempt beard looked very messy, his hair was also messy and stained with mud, and his tattered suit looked like it had just been taken out of a garbage dump. He looked like a savage who had just been caught from the jungle.

But even as a prisoner, his eyes were still terrifyingly cold, as if the temperature around him had dropped several degrees because of that gloomy gaze.

"Victor!"

Logan recognized that the person in the cage was his brother, Victor!

At this time, he had long lost the vicious reputation of a saber-toothed tiger, and was more like a wild cat that could be bullied by anyone.

"Tonight's lot number six comes from an ancient and mysterious race, the mutants - saber-toothed tigers!"

The auctioneer raised the gavel and explained to everyone in a loud voice, "This is a ferocious guy. It takes six times the amount of anesthetics that an ordinary person uses to control him into his current state. Although he looks dirty and weak, he has amazing explosive power. His nails can extend at will and can easily pierce steel. Both his strength and speed are far superior to those of ordinary people. His internal organs are flawless. It is simply a perfect treasure..."

He kept pointing at Victor in the cage, listing out detailed data on everything from height to weight, as well as the length and thickness of his limbs. Just like when he introduced the antiques before, all the parameters were extremely clear, as if the person in the cage was not a person at all, but an exquisite dead object.

His introduction made all the people participating in the auction extremely curious. They stared at Victor in the cage with wide eyes and nodded frequently.

As the auction began, everyone kept raising their hands and vying to make their bids.

"One million and three hundred thousand, I want this wild cat!"

"One million and a half, my zoo needs guys like this!"

"Two million, my beast room is perfect for him!"

"..."

The entire auction was instantly in a frenzy. In their eyes, the creature in the cage was not of the same species as them, but just a strange animal.

The bids made Logan gradually gloomy. His eyes scanned the crowd and finally stopped at the backstage of the auction.

He leaned over and whispered in Laura’s ear: “Go wait for me at the door first.”

After saying that, he stood up without hesitation, clenched his fists and walked towards the backstage.
