Screams resounded throughout the auction house as everybody scrambled to escape, knowing that it couldn't be a coincidence that the power went off as soon as Angelo's weapon was revealed.

Most of those at the auction weren't even at rank 1 and were only low level cultivators, that were very wealthy and looking for resources or treasures to buy to improve their strength, so didn't dare to sit still and rushed to get away.

While everybody was in shock and screaming while rushing away, those from the wolf fang gang seemed to be prepared and instead of being scared, they were instead excited as the gang boss's son began to laugh to himself evilly.

"Pass me two night vision goggles" ordered the man that sat beside him.

He was a burly and muscly man that had an aura of dominance and death around him.

"Yes, boss" answered his subordinate respectfully as he placed the two night vision goggles in his palms, able to see him with his own night vision goggles.

"It was too easy to smuggle in the equipment in preparation for this moment, and we have risked so much for this opportunity, and all that is left is to eliminate all witnesses and escape with the weapon and everything else, that will increase the power of our gang" stated the man as he burst out into laughter, in a similar way to his arrogant son.

The Silver Moon Auction House was a neutral power that didn't involve itself in any conflicts that occurred outside and allowed anybody, that met the influential and wealth qualifications, to enter.

As a neutral power, no conflict was allowed inside and it had strict rules, but the wolf fang had made long preparations for that exact moment.

They had gotten workers on the inside to smuggle in their equipment that was hidden in their viewing room and included automated weapons, body armour and night vision goggles.

The wolf fang gang were a highly ambitious gang that was rapidly growing and had a strong and ruthless leader that was rapidly gaining territory, strength and wealth as more small gangs were swallowed up by his gang.

With the latest weapon made by Angelo, their plans of expanding and warring with other rivalling gangs were possible, but it also placed a large target on their back, from those who were eyeing up the weapon that they had stolen and also Angelo and the auction house would become their enemy.

Which was why they were also planning to kill him and anybody else that witnessed them being involved in the weapon's robbery.

He was highly an ambitious and intelligent gang leader that had many elaborate plans that were very thorough, yet, his biggest shame was his arrogant son that had the worst reputation and didn't have the talent and determination required for cultivation.

As the wolf fang gang armed themselves in preparation to steal the weapon and anything else valuable in the Silver Moon Auction House, Adam and Cole were shocked.

"Cole we need to get out of here, it seems someone is staging a robbery" exclaimed Adam as he grabbed Cole's hand and led him out of the room.

"How can you see" asked Cole as he was dragged down the long corridors they entered from, towards the entrance gala.

"I have good eyesight and can only barely see" answered Adam as he began jogging, speeding up their exit.

Cole remembered Adam as the opposite and remembered him having slightly weak vision but not asking his aunt for glasses because he didn't want to look like a nerd, but in the current situation, Adam's eyesight was the least of his worries.

Within minutes they had joined many others rushing out of their viewing rooms and towards the entrance gala as they were carried along by the large crowd.

[I could go back and watch what cultivators are capable of and maybe even get the weapon while they battle] thought Adam recklessly.

[But my Bloodlust might get out of control and I may get killed in the heat of their battle] thought Adam, weighing the risks and rewards.

Letting go of Cole's hand, Adam split from Cole who believed Adam was still following the crowd along with him towards the entrance gala and the exit, while Adam turned back.

He barged past the crowd, going against the current, but after turning the corner he found some space to slip out of the crowd.

[I need to find a vantage point that is close enough to the battle, to be able to swoop in and take the weapon and have a clear view of the battle, but also not too close that I am sensed and caught in the cross fire] thought Adam to himself as he ran past all those attempting to escape, that gave him confused looks, and looked for a position to watch everything play out from.

Meanwhile, Cole had reached the entrance gala where they were allowed to leave after showing their invites and being searched by the Silver Moon Auction House, that were securing the building and had turned on the backup generator and lights that dimly lit the building.

"Where is Adam" mumbled Cole worriedly as he looked around to see that Adam was nowhere to be seen.

"Don't tell me that idiot turned back, or got himself into trouble" said Cole angrily, worried about his friend.

After looking for him for a few minutes, he was suddenly stopped by a guard.

"Please leave the premises otherwise you may be hurt in the process of subduing those that have attempted to steal from the auction house" stated a guard, pushing out Cole that stood within the entrance gala, not leaving.

"I can't my friend is still inside" refuted Cole, trying to resist the grip of the guard.

But he felt weak in comparison to the guard as he was pushed out of the building.

"Don't worry, your friend will be okay, we will deal with everything" reassured the man as he saw Cole out of the building.

Cole knew there was no way nothing he could do and even if he got back in there was nothing he could do to help Adam.

[All I can do is pray that he is okay and I must believe in his capabilities] thought Cole to himself as he watched the building enter a state of lockdown, stopping anybody from entering or leaving.
