Chapter 780: Secular Auction
"Your Excellency, what you hold in your hand is a long-lost ...... in our Holy See. Nine Rocking Staff?" At this time, someone recognized the Nine Rocking Sticks in the Pope's hand, and gasped.
It is rumored that the Nine Rods were the weapons held by the first Pope of the Catholic Church, and they were extremely powerful, and were regarded by countless Catholics as a symbol of the Pope's power.
It's a pity that with the disappearance of the first pope, the whereabouts of the Nine Sticks are unknown, and no one knows the whereabouts of the Nine Sticks until now.
But now that the Nine Rocking Sticks were in the hands of their Pope, they were naturally shocked.
They have seen the portrait of the Nine Rocking Sticks, and there is no doubt that it is the one in front of them.
"You're right, this is indeed the weapon of our first pope, the Nine Rods!"
As he spoke, the Nine Shaking Staff in the Pope's hand shook, and in an instant, a terrifying power swept out from this scepter, causing all of these Innate Catholic Catholic members to kneel in the void.
"See, the right weapon can really burst into the right hands of the right people. ”
The Nine Sticks seemed to be tailor-made for the Pope, and he looked like a king at the moment.
Well...... A king who was seriously injured by Qin Lin.
"Cut, if you hadn't given it to him, he would have the power of a fart. ”
Li Xuan was still a little uncomfortable with Qin Lin's weapon, but after all, this thing was originally snatched by Qin Lin, and he had the right to dominate.
The Pope over there is receiving a pilgrimage, and here Qin Lin has uploaded the video he just recorded to the Warrior Forum.
I'm afraid it won't be long before this video will be seen by a large number of martial artists, and the fame of the Skywalker organization will be considered a fight at that time.
Of course, the news of the defeat of Catholicism at the hands of the Skywalker Organization will also be spread to the warrior forums at the same time, and it should not be difficult for the two to work together to attract those evil people.
The handover of the Pope takes a little time, so Qin Lin and the others are not in a hurry to leave here, taking advantage of their leisure time, Qin Lin and them are walking around here, and the Vatican will definitely not get any better.
The people there looked at Qin Lin now as if they had seen some kind of mortal enemy, and their fanatical beliefs also led to nothing to play in that place.
At this moment, Qin Lin and the others are wandering around the city that wraps the Vatican, Rome.
Rome is a historical city, the ancient Roman Empire was extremely powerful, almost comparable to those ancient dynasties in China, and there are still a large number of historical monuments preserved here today, attracting a large number of tourists from all over the world.
"What is this place?"
Walking to an ancient castle and seeing the scene of people coming and going, Qin Lin asked a person beside him.
This person was the attendant arranged by the Pope to lead them to familiarize themselves with the venue, originally the Pope didn't want to do this, but for the sake of Qin Lin giving him the Nine Shaking Staffs, he specially arranged a guide.
The realm of the attendants is not high, and the Grandmaster of the Transformation Realm can't even enter the core layer of Catholicism.
But the hint of sarcasm on his face always made Qin Lin feel that the other party looked down on him, thinking that it was because he had defeated their pope, right?
It's just an ant, and Qin Lin doesn't bother to bother with the other party.
Moreover, they are still in the 'honeymoon period' with the Pope, if Qin Lin beats his people now, then it is not good that the Pope will turn his face with himself again.
"This is the largest auction house in the city, and it has a regular auction every month, and this month happens to be today. ”
Although he hated and even hated Qin Lin in his heart, the order he received was to take Qin Lin and them to play, and when others asked, he couldn't be silent, right?
"Auction?"
Hearing this, Qin Lin became a little interested, and said: "It's not interesting to go around this city, otherwise why don't we just go into this auction house and have a look?" This sentence Qin Lin said to Tianluo and them, after all, they are not familiar with the place here, so it is better to go to the auction house to have a good time.
"There are quotas and asset restrictions on the auction, so if you are new to the auction, you will definitely not be able to enter. ”
The squire spoke, and a sneer could not help but spread across his face.
"Really?"
After hearing his words, Qin Lin immediately set his eyes on him and said, "We can't get in, can't you Catholics still get in?"
Catholicism is the head snake here, even if this auction house has a background, I am afraid that it will not dare to argue with Catholicism.
"You go over and get us a few invitations at once, one for each person, if one is missing, I will tell your Pope that you have neglected us, and if you are flayed alive, don't blame me." ”
"You ....... ”
Hearing Qin Lin's threat, the attendant's face was extremely ugly, but in the end, he was still afraid of Qin Lin's threat, and had to run over to get Qin Lin and them an invitation.
Just as Qin Lin thought, the identity of Catholicism is to be a good messenger, and when they walked towards the entrance, the two greeters at the door almost buried their heads in their necks, estimating that they were likely to be one of the countless Catholic believers.
After entering the auction house, Qin Lin found that there were a lot of people here, almost all of them were foreigners, and after Qin Lin and his group of Orientals came in, they attracted a lot of surprised eyes.
But everyone also retracted their gaze after a glance, and the Orientals who don't even have a box are not rich, at most they come in to gain knowledge.
This kind of poor ghost does not deserve their attention.
Casually found a row of seats in this hall and sat down, Qin Lin looked around, and saw that the sky above the hall was full of glass boxes, and there were already people sitting inside.
These people are probably the protagonists of this auction house, and they may be some local elites.
Just like these foreigners look at themselves, Qin Lin just glanced at them and lost interest, he didn't want to sit in any box, anyway, today they just passed by and came in to join in the fun.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the auction began, and the lights were all turned off, except for a spotlight on the auction house.
Under the shroud of light, an old man slowly stepped onto the stage, he was just an ordinary person, not as good as Master Qiuyue.
After a few simple opening words, the auction officially began.
The first lot was a 40-year-old bottle of wine, which a wine collector had taken out with pain.
This is just a thing in the secular world, Qin Lin is not interested in participating in the auction, and in the end, this bottle of wine was won by a person in a box for 300,000 euros, which caused quite a stir.
However, a mere 300,000 euros may be a sprinkling of water for the rich, and there is no movement on the other side of the box.
After the auction, several more lots were brought up, almost all of them by collectors.
"It's really boring, King Qin, you brought us here, it's better to have a dinner. Then Tiro yawned, and he was a little drowsy.
"Let's have some time to eat, and we'll go in a while. Qin Lin laughed happily, but he was not in a hurry.
The reason why he came to this auction hall was not only because Qin Lin wanted to come in and join in the fun, when he just passed by this place, he was keenly aware that there was a hidden power in this ancient castle, so he wanted to come in and have a look.
As for whether that thing will appear in the auction hall in the end, then Qin Lin does not know.
Anyway, they are idle now, and they should blow free air conditioning in this place.
Since it is an auction in the secular world, the things auctioned on it have nothing to do with Qin Lin and them, fine wine, collectibles, antiques, as long as it is something that the rich are interested in, almost all appear on the auction table.
After looking at this place for about half an hour, Qin Lin finally waited for what he wanted.
I saw that it was a pendant, which was inlaid with a dark blue gemstone, which looked unusually brilliant.
"I'm sure everyone is familiar with this pendant, right?" At this time, the auctioneer on the auction table picked up the pendant in the tray and said, "This thing is known as the immortal symbol of love and the immortal treasure of the jewelry world." ”
"But the rumored Heart of the Ocean?" exclaimed.
"It seems that this friend even knows a thing about jewelry, and you are right, this is indeed the rumored Heart of the Ocean. ”
"Isn't this thing already lost?" the man asked again.
"Don't doubt the authenticity of our auction house items, this Heart of the Ocean has authoritative certificates issued by dozens of the world's top jewelry connoisseurs, which can prove that this is indeed the heart of the ocean that has been rumored in the jewelry industry for a long time. ”
After speaking, the auctioneer didn't want to explain so much, because the person who asked was only one of the ordinary people in the table, and this kind of person couldn't afford to buy it after asking, and it was a waste of time to talk to him.
As for the people in the box, these people basically have their own exclusive appraisers, and he doesn't need to explain so much.
Whether it's true or not, you can know it at a check.
"Heart of the Sea, because of its preciousness and irreproducibility, has a starting price of 4 million euros. ”
Hearing this, all the people present couldn't help but gasp, even Tianluo.
Four million euros, equivalent to almost 30 million Chinese coins, is just a piece of jewelry used to wear the starting price is so high, it is simply a money grab.
"It is rumored that the jewel inlaid on the heart of the ocean is a fishing boat in the deep sea by chance, the only one in the world, and because of the blue color, so it is named the heart of the ocean. ”
An old man in the public seat muttered to himself, his face full of excitement.
Don't look at it and he can't afford it, but even a glance at this legendary thing is a great blessing.
"Five million. ”
Just when the excitement in the public seats was incredible, one of those in the box was already the first to bid.
"Six million. ”
"Eight million. ”
Although it is just a pendant, because of its beautiful meaning, it is natural that people will participate in the competition.
For those who are really rich, this money is nothing, and if you can buy this thing back and make the beauty smile, wouldn't it be beautiful?
So after just a few bids, the price of the pendant has soared to 12 million euros and continues to rise.
"These rich people are really extravagant, and I feel a bit like robbing the rich and helping the poor. Diro pouted.
No wonder there are so many bad guys kidnapping the rich now, it's not unreasonable.
"King Qin, this is probably the last lot, there's nothing to look at, it's time for us to go. Di Luo said to Qin Lin.
"Don't worry, sit down again. Qin Lin smiled slightly and said.
"Fifteen million, is there a higher price than this?"
Fifteen million euros, equivalent to more than 100 million Chinese coins.
It is a luxury to spend so much money to buy a pendant, and there are very few people who ask for it at this moment.
After all, although the rich have a lot of money, it doesn't mean that they are really stupid and have a lot of money, and if the value of an item jumps beyond their psychological valuation, they will give it up.
"Twenty million. ”
Just when no one in the audience raised the price, suddenly a mysterious voice resounded throughout the audience.
