Chapter 138 Bidding
The turmoil caused by the life potion was greater than they thought.
In just a few days, the number of foreign dignitaries and powerful people who came to Manover to participate in the auction increased to a terrifying level. Some of these people went directly to the black market to ask for an invitation letter, and some simply asked those who had an invitation letter, but People who are not strong enough to attack, the crime rate in Manover soars, and everyone feels insecure.
When the auction starts, the guests who are familiar with Manover will find that many familiar faces in the past have not appeared. Instead, they are all wearing black cloaks, hiding their faces, and they are not good to look at. mess with the guys.
"The atmosphere today is not good. These people don't seem to be here to participate in the auction, but rather to rob."
After entering the auction hall, a few ordinary wealthy people who were lucky enough to avoid the invitation letter being robbed were almost too frightened by the undercurrent to go in.
Naturally, this kind of auction has private rooms, but that is the treatment only for the powerful and powerful. They can only be crowded in the hall with other people, and it is already a lot of people grabbing their heads. We all want the opportunity.
But this opportunity has turned into a disaster. The private rooms in the black market have been reserved long ago, and the latecomers can only sit in the lobby, and those who use various means to get invitations from other people can be taken away. The person with the invitation letter is naturally not the one who can sit in the private room.
"It really looks like a cult gathering." In the private room on the second floor, the elf looked at the hall downstairs through a wall similar to a one-way perspective mirror. The groups of people in black made him feel like there were all monsters underneath. illusion.
In the past, this was the standard configuration of their Magic Castle.
Of course it is now.
There were only him and the demon king in the private room. The old lich was probably abused by the demon king, and he was determined not to share the same room with them. It was also wearing a black robe and burrowed into the hall without any violation.
"Come and sit down, the auction will start soon." The Demon King patted the seat beside him.
The elf walked over and sat down next to him. There were fruits and drinks in the private room. The elf took one and broke it. It tasted good, and he broke off a piece and brought it to the mouth of the devil.
On the auction stage in the hall, the auctioneer came out from behind the curtain and announced the start of the auction.
The scene immediately fell silent.
Today's auction is held by a beautiful and hot blonde beauty. A pair of beautiful legs are looming under the sexy and close-fitting long skirt with high slits, and the roundness of the chest is ready to be seen.
But if you think she is only beautiful, you are wrong.
Diliana is the only eighth-level female swordsman in Kamdor. Although she looks young and beautiful, she is actually over [-] years old. However, after the professional powerhouse exceeds the seventh level, the life expectancy is twice as long as that of ordinary people. His age is not too old among the powerhouses of the same rank.
It took a lot of thought for the black market to invite such a strong person to serve as the auctioneer.
The first auction item was brought up. It was an antique. Not many people were interested in it. Soon after the reserve price was quoted, it was auctioned off.
The atmosphere of the next few items was also the same. The auction items that could cause a wave of competition in the past were rarely sold today, and some even passed the auction directly, which made the scene very embarrassing for a while.
Fortunately, the beautiful auctioneer's eloquence was good. After a few auction items, the atmosphere gradually became heated, and more people bid.
The Demon King read the manual seriously.
"Is there anything you want?"
The Demon King wants to throw a lot of money for love, but unfortunately, the elf doesn't want anything. Compared with the things in the stands, he is more interested in finding out which old lich downstairs is.
He had read the manual in the Demon King's hand. Although he didn't understand the text, he could still understand the pictures. There was indeed nothing that interested him.
"No, what do you want to buy?"
"This is good." The devil turned to a page of the manual.
The elf leaned over to take a look, a little surprised: "Gem? Why do you want to shoot this?"
They were a pair of eyeball-sized emeralds, and I don't know their origin, but they were able to be ranked in the second half of the auction, which seemed to be only a few places away from the finale.
But the elf didn't see how this pair of gemstones could win the favor of the devil. Although such a large pair of gemstones with exactly the same color and size is rare, and they are beautiful like two green stars, he believes that there must be a pair of gemstones in the treasure house of the devil. There are better and bigger ones than this one.
The Demon King didn't speak, but just lifted up the manual and placed it next to the elf.
The green gems are shining brightly, and the green eyes are crystal clear, reflecting the appearance of the devil inside.
"……very good."
"Ok?"
Soon, the gems that the devil valued were sent to the auction table.
Beautiful gemstones can always make women's hearts flutter. Even the beautiful auctioneer couldn't help but glisten when he uncovered the silk cloth, let alone the female guests present.
Even life potions may not be as attractive to them as this pair of gems.
"—Blessing from the Goddess of Love, all the ladies here have heard about this pair of beautiful emeralds. Legend has it that they have magical powers. As long as a pair of lovers wear one of these gems, they can be together forever. I personally think This legend is true. So far, this pair of emeralds has had no less than twenty pairs of owners. Yes, twenty pairs. Each of them is just like the legend. They are lovers who love each other very much and spent a happy life together. .”
With beautiful gems and beautiful legends, no woman can not be tempted.
At the same time, there is obviously the Demon King who is also excited.
"The base price is [-] gold coins, and each increase is no less than [-] gold coins. Start now."
As soon as the words fell, someone immediately bid an auction price of [-] gold coins.
But this head start did not achieve the deterrent effect it should have. The auctioneer didn't even hit the small hammer, and someone called out the price of 11 gold coins.
Then, the price increase of one thousand gold each time was changed to 50 gold each time by the crazy ladies, and the price of gemstones soared to [-] gold coins in just a few minutes. Only then did the trend ease, but the bidding still did not stop.
The Demon King has not made a move until now, but the elf doesn't think he will give up at this point. To be honest, after hearing the legend of this pair of gems, even he was a little moved.
The elf noticed that there are three people who are still bidding for this pair of gems, and all of them are guests from the treasure chest on the second floor.
The private rooms in the black market are numbered, and the guests in the front private rooms are more noble, and the same is true for the private rooms with special meanings.
And the ones currently participating in the auction are private rooms No. [-], No. [-], and No. [-]. Just by asking the price, you can hear a burst of anger, and no one will believe that they don't know each other.
In the end, after the guests in private room No. 78 quoted a high price of [-] gold coins, the remaining two stopped bidding. up the numbers.
When the auctioneer saw the price, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "100 million gold coins, the guest in the NO.13 private room paid 100 million gold coins, is there any higher one?"
Although the pair of gemstones are beautiful and the legend is very romantic, they are useless other than that, and the highest estimated price of this pair of gemstones on the black market is only 50 gold coins, and the price of 78 is all because of the three private rooms. The guests are pursuing the same beauty. They are rivals in love. They both know the purpose of wanting this pair of gemstones. Naturally, no one wants to hand over this pair of extraordinary gemstones to others. The battle of emotions makes the black market get a cheap auction. Much higher prices than they expected.
But the guests in the NO.13 private room that suddenly appeared were completely beyond their expectations.
Ackerman, the head of the black market hiding behind the scenes, asked his secretary in a low voice: "Who is in the NO.13 private room?"
The secretary memorized the invitation list a long time ago, and upon hearing his inquiry, he immediately replied: "The Marquis Valentine was originally invited."
Originally, it wasn't him who was there now.
After the invitation letter from the black market is sent out, as long as the person holding the invitation letter can participate, they don't care whether it is the original inviter or not.
Many people understand this unspoken rule, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people rushing to snatch other people's invitation letters.
But I understand, Ackerman is not very happy when his guest is robbed.
"Send someone to spy on them to see where they are coming from." Ackerman ordered: "Also, let everyone be vigilant, no one is allowed to rob in the black market-I don't care after they leave here, but in the black market , no one can break the rules."
The secretary smiled wryly: "My lord, there are quite a few eighth-level powerhouses among these people. How can our guards stop them?"
"Don't be nervous. People who can advance to the eighth level are not stupid. They won't do it in the black market. What you have to pay attention to is other people. They dare to snatch the invitation letter. Naturally, it is not ruled out that people who don't have a good brain are directly in the black market. Do it on the spot."
Nowadays, as long as there is something that can extend life, there is nothing cheap, let alone a life potion that can increase life span by ten years, no one would dislike living longer.
As soon as the Demon King's 100 million gold coins came out, no one would rob him. It might have happened at other times, but today's highlight is the life potion, and no one wants to waste too much money elsewhere.
So soon, the auctioneer made a final decision, and the two gems were sent to the NO.13 private room.
The author has something to say: Demon King: Very good, the engagement gift is here.
