Chapter 1171
“Um, alright then.” Seeing that neither Ruth nor Quinton wanted to leave, Leon had no choice but to sit back. down.
After God knows how long, the auction finally came to an end, and there was only one item left, which was the most
attractive item of the day–the Mirror of Aegis.
At this moment, Leon became so bored that he almost nodded off, but in contrast, Quinton, Tim, and the rest of the
philanthropists immediately perked up at this, especially when they saw Jared gesturing for the hostess to bring the
Mirror of Aegis onstage.
The moment the mirror, covered in a piece of red drape, appeared onstage, the entire room seemed to come alive

“Our final item is the Mirror of Aegis–a piece of treasure that treasure Hunter managed to recover from some
ancient ruins. This is our final and most valuable piece of treasure at our auction today, and its starting price is
from 43 million dollars, with an interval of no less than 7 million dollars each!” Jared declared as he whipped off the
red drape, revealing the Mirror of Aegis for the first time.
“Oh-”
The philanthropists gasped as they stared in awe at the treasure on stage, their gazes focused and determined.
Everyone came for this treasure, but when the drape was taken off, everyone froze in shock.
The Mirror of Aegis looked no different from an ordinary mirror, and was even rather ugly–it was dark and rusty
with no sheen at all, and did not look at all like a piece of treasure worth millions of dollars.
“This is the treasure? Jared, do you think all of us are fools?” the philanthropists were outraged by this, and the
entire room erupted into a flurry of angry whispers and snarls.
If you expect disappointment, you can never be disappointed.
Even though none of them ever laid eyes on a true piece of treasure, all of them expected the Mirror of Aegis to be
a shiny, dazzling work of art, or perhaps be glowing with the historic aura of their ancestry!
However, not only was the Mirror of Aegis dirty and rusty, there was not even a hint of any power simmering
beneath the surface, and surely this was just an ordinary mirror!
At this moment, everyone thought that this treasure was simply just a hoax designed by the Powells to trick them all
into attending the auction!
“Oh my! I can’t believe you dare to call this a piece of treasure, what a joke!” Leon snickered. He saw this coming

across the mirror’s surface.
Even though it was faint and barely visible, the energy was pure and even came with a sliver of regal power.
“What?” the color drained from Leon’s face.
Then, he fixated his gaze once more on the Mirror of Aegis, and all of a sudden, a memory left behind by his
ancestor materialized in his mind’s eye.
This was the Mirror of Sovereign–a priceless piece of treasure left behind by ancestors millions of years ago!
“This-“Leon was utterly stunned, and his jaw dropped at this realization.
He initially thought this was just the Powells‘ hoax, but now, on second glance, he realized it was truly a piece of
treasure, one that mankind never saw before–the Mirror of Sovereign!
He could not remain calm any longer.
