Chapter 417: Auction
Since you can't meet ...... That should be the probability of attacking again, Thor was a little stunned, and soon became full of resentment again.
This wild girl who runs around all day long, are you determined to be a combat-type shiitake mushroom?
"This young lady, actually...... What I want to talk about does not have to be with Miss Anne Baze herself, but also with her husband or her husband. As the maid turned around and was about to leave, Thor suddenly looked up and said something to the maid.
The maid stopped abruptly, turned her head and looked at Thor again with an inexplicable expression.
“...... Sorry, guest, it seems that your message is not too accurate, our eldest lady is not yet married. The maid said.
She must be about twenty years old, right? This kind of stinky mushroom that can only be beaten and killed all day long, who else would want it except this great demon king? The old dog secretly rejoiced, wondering if there was any possibility of committing a crime.
"I think you're very obscene, can't you just ask her if she's married?Oh~ I know, you actually don't dare to ask directly, right? You're afraid of getting some bad news that will hit your fragile little heart, right?" Neferna was active.
"Isn't that a big deal?" said Thor's eyes.
In the end, Thor didn't leave his real name, and even Buu didn't work, so let it be, and we'll see what the probability is before leaving.
After leaving the Adair family, Thor has little to worry about in the city. So Saul first prepared a hotel room to settle in, and then took Neferna and Griffin to taste the local food, and swept the market by the way.
On the way, Thor suddenly remembered a story that Creti had told to himself many years ago when she was on a tree and did not tell a story.
"I once knew a friend who was in this territory. She is alone and has a cat. She said that one day when the cats were old and died, she would leave the territory, because then there would be no reason to stay. ”
"Later, the cat didn't die, but she died, and life is always unpredictable. Because I don't have a cat like that, ......."
What did Chlettie Shiitake want to express with this story? The world is unpredictable? Or is it another way to be lonely? Fortunately, I found her again in the sea of people. It's a big deal, I'll be your cat in the future, I'll always be with you.
The main city of Odrenze is huge, and if you look up from the top of the city with the lights of the city, you can see the whole city roughly in a circle if you look good enough. The whole circle was divided into twelve equal parts, like a round pie being cut several times neatly across the center of the circle.
Each of the twelve districts can be taken out independently, and even if it is independent, it occupies a larger area than the main city in any territory that Thor has ever seen. It is said that each city has its own independent market and gold cave, from which prosperity comes from.
It would have taken many days to visit all the markets in the twelve districts, but now that Sol has plenty of time.
So in the days that followed, Thor walked through all the bazaars, scouring every soul crystal he could find. As for the puppet Neferna and the little white wolf hiding in the hood, they are all about eating and eating, and there is no other theme in life.
Another important material that Thor is concerned about, a sufficient amount of bloody moss has been obtained, but the preservation requirements are very strict, if exposed to the air for too long, it will wither into dead moss, Thor hurriedly sent it to the ring to keep it fresh.
As for the source of the Demonic Crystal, after visiting all the bazaars, there was no trace of it, and Thor had to find a local intelligence gathering organization.
After negotiating the price of the intelligence, Thor was still a little apprehensive, which was still a probability in the final analysis. If you finally get the news, whether it is not available on the market recently, or it will not be available for a long time, or it will not be available for a while, it is actually not good news.
Because Thor has built a huge plan around these materials, about the territory, about the future. The Demon Crystal Source is like the most critical part of the whole plan, and if it is missing, whether the plan is shelved or extended indefinitely, it will not be satisfactory.
The source of the Magic Crystal is said to be a kind of xenocrystal, somewhere between a plant and a mineral, but strictly speaking it is a precious magical material. It is usually extremely difficult to come across, but usually it appears in the form of a bush, like a bush.
The potion that Thor wants to prepare, the consumption of other materials is slightly larger, on the contrary, the consumption of the most precious magic crystal source is the smallest. So he doesn't need a clump, maybe a branch is enough for him to use it for a long time, but only if it is available on the market.
After another two days, the needed news finally arrived as promised, which was a mixed bag. They suggested that Thor go to the auction in Odrenza to have a look, and the day after tomorrow happened to be the day after tomorrow, and according to internal sources, there was a cluster of demonic crystals for sale at that auction.
The good news is that at least there is something, and the bad news is that in that kind of situation where money speaks, and Thor is not sure if he will be able to get his wish in the end. Because he didn't know anything about the Demon Crystal Source before, and he hadn't even heard of it.
I don't know if the Demon Pattern Crystal Source has a variety of unknown uses, and things become a little uncertain. The market only says that this is a magic material, but what if someone else is using it to save lives?
In this unexpectedness, time slipped to the day of the auction, and Thor had brought Neferna and Griffin into the ring in advance, so that he could let go if he wanted to run. After all, what he is going to today is an occasion where he needs to show his face.
If the identity of his Great Demon King is accidentally exposed, it will really be the resurrection of ancient evil, and it will definitely set off a storm again.
After all, now that he is, if nothing else, he should have been included in the list of the dead of the Dark Council.
Carefully prepared a disguise, hiding himself in a black robe with a hood, and a low-key and mysterious invisible rich man who does not want to reveal his identity appears in the hotel mirror. After a careful inspection, Thor quickly rushed to the auction site.
The auction was held in the main hall of Glory Square, and when Thor arrived, it was already crowded, and it seemed that there were many Taokers.
Participating in the auction for the first time, Thor is not a regular customer of the auction house, so he has no qualifications or interest in sitting in the boxes and compartments of the auction house. just entered the second-class seat on the first floor as an ordinary business traveler, and crowded together with many people who seemed to be watching the excitement.
The hall is spacious and bright, with a carpeted auction table in the middle, but it is not high enough to better display the lots.
In the midst of the buzzing and noisy noise, a polite dress mushroom walked to the stage and said something meaningless to everyone in the audience, and then announced the official start of the auction and entered the display of goods.
Thor has not participated in the auction, but many people from various regions have talked about it when people in the territory chat. Originally, the old goblin was going to build a Free City auction, but Thor didn't pay much attention to it at the time, and he didn't know if it was built later.
One by one, there are goods presented in everyone's field of vision, causing people to be amazed or discussed, it is undeniable that the goods that can be staged in this specification will definitely not be ordinary. From weapons to rare materials to magic scrolls, and even musical scores and paintings.
Thor tapped lightly on the price tag in his hand, at most he had seen a fresh and long experience. Even if there is something that flatters him once in a while, he will not make a move, because he has to keep enough money to ensure that he has the last laugh and does not trip over temporary variables.
Or it can also be said that as long as you buy the Demon Crystal Source, everything is possible, and other so-called boutiques are not worth mentioning.
The goods on the stage come and go, and the price is raised one after another, and the basic atmosphere of the auction at this time is not too intense, and it can be regarded as a situation where everyone is happy to take what they need. Soon, the source of the Demon Pattern Crystal, which Thor cared about the most, was brought out.
When he brought it out, Thor was secretly happy in his heart, because the goods were in the penultimate sale, and since it was not the finale, maybe the price bite would not be too intense. It's just that after waiting for the introduction of the dresses and mushrooms on the stage, Saul felt that it was not good.
Some of his rough guesses before attending the meeting came true, and it was reported that the magic crystal source was really widely used, both for medicine and for magical creations, and it was also an efficient and rare magic energy source like the magic crystal, in short, Thor was very unsure of it.
Thor carefully observed this cluster of demonic crystal sources that he had never seen before, the whole was actually colored, the sword-like cross-cut crystal plane, and sometimes the gem-like glow passed in the light of the hall, and the gorgeous appearance was needless to say.
With this exquisite appearance, Saul suspected that even if it was bought home by some rich fool, it was not impossible to display it as a high-end craft. Anyway, now that the things are seen, the rest is a competition between prices, and the basic starting price is ten longans.
Until the bidding price was pushed to about twenty dragons, Thor remained silent.
He left hundreds of thousands of silver coins for the mushrooms at home, and he still had tens of thousands of silver wolves left in his hands, plus the ten longans that he cheated from Omiya shiitake mushrooms along the way, which was converted back to almost a hundred dragonans.
It seems that there is still a lot of room for bidding, but it is difficult to say until the dust settles.
By the time the price was pushed to nearly 30 longans, many bidders withdrew from the race, leaving only two or three people still holding on. After thirty dragon's eyes, the scene suddenly fell silent, as if it was about to decide the ownership of this item, and Thor joined.
Thor's price increase did not jump, and he still piled up one dragon eye after another like everyone else, first patting the hundred dragon eyes in his hand and then speaking, anyway, he was determined to get this product.
It's really not good, in the end, he can be a robber, and a thief can do it, that's the correct way for the big demon king to be arrogant.
