?Chapter 692: Chapter 692: Lucky Benhart Chapter 692: Chapter 692: Lucky Benhart Last time there was the “Blood Debt” incident involving Professor Higgins, Shard had a pretty good impression of Mr. Armand Benhart.

So, even though he knew the other party was of the Vampire Kind and knew they had settled in a local winery, he did not report them to the church. This time, the witches obviously wouldn’t pretend this person didn’t exist, and more evidently, even if the other party was a Vampire Kind of the Inner Ring, they absolutely wouldn’t stand a chance against any of the Grand Witches in the room.

“Good luck.”

That was all Shard could think as he walked towards the warehouse.

The photo didn’t show the size of the coffin, but its actual size was just that of a normal coffin, so clearly, Mr. Benhart couldn’t possibly carry it back himself. Normally, according to the auction procedure, such large, hard-to-transport items were to be transported by the trucks of the Cassandra Auction House the following day. However, Mr. Benhart clearly loved the antique coffin he had bought and insisted on having it taken away by carriage that very night.

Of course, buying something and leaving immediately would seem very suspicious, so Mr. Benhart still remained at the Fire Worship Festival banquet, while the pitch-black metal coffin stayed in the warehouse. As one of the hosts of the banquet, the Cassandra Auction House naturally had the keys to the warehouse and even the security company they hired belonged to the Cassandra Auction House.

The warehouse was located in the basement on the eastern side of the first floor of the Midshire Fort Mechanical Academy, which was originally a shelter for the frontline army camp and later became the academy’s storage room. Granny Cassandra’s maid, the lady with Second Ring Power, led Shard all the way to the basement. After verifying their identities and passing through multiple checks, they went through three doors and unlocked at least three big locks before Shard was allowed to see the coffin.

The basement was lit with gas lamps, and the metal coffin, after thousands of years, was utterly corroded. It was placed upright in a wooden crate filled with straw and cotton pads for cushioning. Soon, the lid of the crate would be closed and nailed shut for transportation.
