Chapter 3148 The Withered Tree Branch
Even though the majority of them didn’t recognize the wooden box, some of them were still aware of what it was.
After all, the box had originated from their hands.
As a result, they found it familiar when they saw it but couldn’t recall its origins.
“I feel like I have seen the box before,” Agent 23 and Agent 29 mumbled together.
As for the other three who had invited Levi previously, they too felt the same way.
How could they not, for they were the ones that bought the box in the first place.
They just couldn’t recognize it given how suddenly it was unveiled.
“The box looks really familiar!”
Even the seven decision-makers found it familiar although no one could recall why.
As for the ones who actually sent it to Levi, they were standing at the back and could barely see anything.
If they had stood a little closer, they would have instantly recognized the box.
Despite the box’s exquisite design, it didn’t look out of the ordinary for everyone else.
Moreover, all of them were distracted by the anxiousness to see what the treasure actually was.
After taking a quick glance at the wooden box, they didn’t seem bothered by it, as they couldn’t wait for the box to be opened and the treasure to be revealed.
Blinded by greed, no one recognized the box at all.
Meanwhile, Levi was taken aback.
Have they been driven mad by greed? How can they not tell where the box is from?
Dr. Erebus too was caught by surprise because he had expected them to gasp the moment they saw it.
In the end, no one recognized it at all.
What are they doing?
“Open it! Quick, open it!”
“Where’s the treasure?”
One by one, the crowd shouted impatiently when they saw Dr. Erebus stop.
The seven decision-makers even felt the urge to open the box themselves.
They were so excited that they could barely restrain themselves to the extent they were unaware of how easily Levi aroused their curiosity.
After having to wait for Levi for five days, they were now frustrated over another delay to see the treasure.
“I beg of you, hurry up and show us the treasure!”
Agent 33 almost dropped to his knees in front of Dr. Erebus, who shook his head in resignation.
“You will regret it, for you’ll die once you have laid eyes upon it!”
Given how riled up everyone was, no one took Dr. Erebus’ advice nor thought of the potential danger.
Just when Dr. Erebus was about to open it, Levi stopped him.
Staring at the crowd, he asked again, “Do you really want to see the treasure?”
“We do! Yes, we do!” the crowd raved as if they had lost their minds..
In fact, it was the seven decision-makers that yelled the loudest.
“Mr. Garrison, I’ll get on my knees for you. Just show us the treasure!”
They could no longer hold back their emotions.
Levi’s lips broadened into a smile upon seeing their reaction. “Do you really want to see it? You will definitely regret it!”
At that moment, all of them nodded vehemently.
“We won’t regret it!”
“We definitely won’t!”
“Quick, show it to us!” the crowd urged fervently.
Levi snorted, “Fine. I have given you your chance, but you have refused to take it.”
“Hmm?”
Levi’s words baffled them.
What does he mean?
Unfortunate for them, they didn’t think much of it.
Levi ordered Dr. Erebus to open the box.
Crack!
The box was finally opened.
Amidst everyone undivided attention, Dr. Erebus took out the withered tree branch that looked like a sword.
What? Isn’t this…
Stunned by the sight of the tree branch, the crowd fell into a deathly silence.
