Chapter 44: The Balker Lizard

In a general auction, all the lots are auctioned in their own order, and many buyers pay special attention to the auctions they are interested in according to this order. But the auctioneer in front of him broke the routine and confused the order, which made some people who were interested in this painting immediately nervous.

"I heard that Charlemagne did not allow anyone to look at this bust of the queen after he painted it, and he only saw it three times in his life. The starting price of this silk painting of Empress Charlemagne is 100,000 gold coins, and the price increase is 20,000 gold coins each time......

It seems that the auctioneer put a lot of effort into this painting, and turned over all the past events of Charlemagne, with a strong incitement in his words, and everyone in the audience whispered about it.

Charlemagne, one of the greatest wizards in the wizarding world and one of the terminators of the Age of the Gods...... And for ordinary people, he is also the greatest emperor!

Not one of them.

Everyone immediately became excited, staring at the painting with burning eyes, as if they were in their pockets, as if they really had something to do with Charlemagne's beloved wife.

The auctioneer was very satisfied with this effect, and the reason why he asked the painting to be auctioned in advance was to take into account the fanatical pursuit of the articles left by the great emperor by these upper classes.

"One hundred and fifty thousand. Someone shouted from below.

"Two hundred thousand. The second also shouted without hesitation.

"Then I'll just call 300,000. ”

"Three hundred and one thousand. ”

"I'll give three hundred and twenty thousand. ”

“......”

Starting from 300,000 yuan, the price rose by 11,000 yuan, although the atmosphere was not very intense, the speed of chasing the price was not slow at all, and finally the first auction item was bought by a second-generation figure of aristocracy for 850,000 yuan.

In the same way, the auction items were 'sent' out one by one unhurriedly, and when she saw the seven auction items, Merlin had already noticed that although these people were chasing the price, it was not arbitrary.

These people seem to have the same ruler in their hearts, as long as the price reaches a certain number, no one will shout the price.

This is indeed a good business to avoid losses, Merlin is even wondering if she can get some benefits from this need, in Ingram's collection, in addition to the items that can only be used by wizards, there are also a large number of golden tickets, for ordinary people, I am afraid that it is equivalent to the assets of a medium family, but for wizards, it is really not of much value, because the items that are really related to wizards cannot be bought with these worldly circulating coins.

Today, however, should be an exception. Merlin wasn't really interested in these things, but she was thinking about whether or not she would need to buy some worldly property...... If you can't find a wizard force to rely on in a short period of time, then you have to buy more properties in the world, so you can use it for hiding. The more Merlin thought about it, the more excited he became, and it was at this moment that he heard the voice of the Hellboy who had never shouted the price.

"A million. Balk lizard, the contemptible is going to be decided. ”

Although it seemed a bit arrogant, the people present did not have anything to say, everyone knew what kind of character Hell Baron was, although the people here were not necessarily afraid of Hell Baron, and no one wanted to make enemies with him for no reason.

Merlin hadn't noticed the auctioneer's explanation just now, and only then did she know the name of the strange ring. But no matter what, she won't give up.

"One hundred and ten thousand. ”

Merlin didn't add more, not because she didn't think it was worth it, but because she added too much, it would make those people suspicious.

"There are opponents. The Hellboy smiled, he held out two fingers and said, "I don't like to waste time, two million." ”

"Two million and ten thousand. Merlin still only added 10,000.

If the 10,000 just now made the other people present feel a little ridiculous, then now some people have begun to admire Mei Lin, after all, there are not many people who can take out 2 million casually, after all, the other party is just a young wizard apprentice. And in Manshu, there are even fewer people who dare to challenge the authority of the Baron of Hell.

At this moment, almost everyone sat up straight, looking at the battle in front of them, the auction held in private, and it was rare to see such a scene.

However, it is precisely because it is rare, and the people here are not ordinary people, once the 'fight' starts, the intensity will also be breathtaking.

The Hellboy leaned back against the sofa and seemed to be thinking there, he held the wine glass in his hand and shook it gently, looking at the red wine syrup hanging on the wall of the wine glass, as if playful, and said: "Ordinary auctions, for people like us, are meaningless entanglements, let's just take a look, you and I only pay once, and the highest price wins." ”

Merlin didn't say a word, just nodded.

From the right pocket, he took out ten large golden tickets, each with a denomination of 500,000 yuan, and the Hellboy pushed them out, which was really as easy as pushing out a stack of papers.

"Five million?" A smile appeared at the corner of Merlin's mouth: "I'm still the same as before, just add ten thousand." ”

As she spoke, she took out ten golden tickets of the same amount, and attached a small golden ticket of 10,000 gold coins.

Although this amount of gold is a lot of money, for wizards, it cannot be ignored, but for Merlin's seizure, it is really a drop in the bucket, after all, Ingram is carrying the wealth accumulated by the Hundred Grass Cottage over the years.

Seeing that Merlin had indeed taken out more money than himself, Hellboy immediately became silent.

He knew that Merlin was a wizard apprentice, but she was too young, and even if she had a background, she was afraid that she would not have a lot of money at her disposal. But now it's a little uncertain. At the moment, the Hellboy only has five million gold coins on him, and it is obviously not suitable to go back and get it on this occasion...... And if it weren't for the sake of face, he wouldn't have spent five million just to win the favor of his female companion. Looking at the ring, he hesitated for a moment and finally chose to give up.

"You won. ”

The Hellboy stood up and said, he drew back his golden ticket and put it in his wallet, and said coldly, "Congratulations on obtaining the right to it, may luck always be with you." ”

This is already an undisguised curse!

With that, he left the auction.

The Hellboy is definitely a ruthless character in Manshu City, and the people around him now look at Merlin with a little sympathy and a little schadenfreude, of course they know that Merlin does not belong to any family in Manshu City, and it is very likely that the child of a certain family has come out to travel.

But so what?

The Emperor is far away, and the Baron of Hell can make this person evaporate anywhere in Manshu City, and the murderer cannot be found.
