The old man pushed the monocle on the bridge of his nose with his thick fingers, and carefully examined the black crystal in his hand up and down, left and right.

"Not bad. ”

"Pretty good. ”

The old man muttered to himself unconsciously, and the soothing expression on his face seemed to him to be extremely satisfied.

Eventually, the old man took out a satin handkerchief from the drawer, wrapped the black crystal, and gently placed it on the table.

"Very high-quality ghost crystals, at least they should come from elite-level ghost ghosts, and if it weren't for a few better auction items in this auction, this ghost crystal might even have the possibility of being used as an opening or even a finale. ”

The old man said very sincerely.

"So how much can it sell for?"

Pochi was clearly more concerned about that, even though he couldn't get the money.

"I can't say this, but generally speaking, there should be no problem with such a high-quality ghost crystal selling for a thousand gold coins. ”

"A thousand gold coins?"

Pochi's mouth opened wide in surprise.

No wonder Pochi was so surprised, a thousand gold coins is definitely not a small amount, even in most areas of Valari City, buying a single-family house generally costs more than a thousand gold coins, which means that if this black crystal that looks black and inconspicuous is taken out, it is likely that you can change a house casually.

The old man had seen too much fuss like Pochi now, and he didn't say anything more, silently putting away the ghost crystal and writing a slip for Al.

"Here is your auction order, in duplicate, please sign each here. ”

Al did so.

The old man handed one of the auction orders to Al, and explained the precautions such as when he would come over in the future.

The next day, before the allotted time arrived, Al and Pochi arrived at the auction house together.

The auction begins.

The auction was presided over by a dignified and graceful woman, a well-cut royal blue evening dress clearly outlined the extremely seductive body curves of the woman, and the dignified and beautiful face was obviously carefully dressed, which looked particularly bright and moving.

Many men below who came to Blizzard's auction for the first time couldn't help but have their eyes lit up when they saw that the host was such a beautiful woman.

It seems that the beauty effect really applies to any industry.

The hostess held a magic microphone for amplification, and the microphone part used for amplification emitted a bright white light under the magic power, and the hostess's lips opened lightly, and the pleasant voice spread throughout the auction room.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Blizzard Auctions......"

After a brief opening remarks, the auction gets to the point, and the first lot is a sword.

The sword's appearance was extraordinary, radiating a dazzling brilliance in the spotlight, and the magic runes on the scabbard began to light and extinguish as if they sensed something, and glowed like breath.

The scene immediately set off a rush to shoot.

Eventually, the magic sword was snatched away by a knight-like man who was covered in heavy armor.

"Are these guys really just coming to the Magic City of Valari just to attend the auction? ”

Poki looked around and noticed a number of figures who at first glance did not look like magicians or alchemists.

This was followed by two more auctions, both of which were infested to a very high price.

It is the largest and most famous auction house in Valari.

As an auction house, the quality of distinguishing whether it is good is that the auctioneer can sell the lot for a high price, and for the bidder, it can buy a good quality and genuine product, and Blizzard Auction House has done a pretty good job of this.

"So let's move on to the next lot. ”

The lights dimmed, and the only light source on the stage was the magic microphone in the hostess's hand, which emitted a faint white light, illuminating the upper body of the hostess, making her seem like a ghost floating in the air.

With the wave of the hostess's hand, a bright beam of light fell from a high place and hit the auction table next to the hostess.

I saw a long black crystal wrapped in a bright red velvet cloth, shining in the light, and sitting close or with good eyesight, I could clearly see that the misty star-like object in the depths of the black crystal was slowly shrinking and expanding as if it were alive, as if breathing.

"It's ...... Wraith Crystal!"

Someone in the audience immediately recognized the identity of the black crystal.

"That's right, it's a ghost crystal, and it's the top grade of a ghost crystal. The hostess began to explain with a touching smile on her face: "You can clearly see that the soul mist inside this ghost crystal looks strong, and its breathing is quite regular, which proves that this abyssal demon must have been strong and robust before, and full of potential." ”

"There is no doubt that this ghost crystal must contain extremely abundant soul power, for magicians who are good at ghost necromancy, this is a rare material for making a staff or magic tool, of course, people with deep pockets can also use it as a one-time spell casting material or a magic aid with ghost spell affinity, and it will definitely have quite extraordinary effects. ”

"Alright, now start auctioning a ghost crystal dropped by an elite-level abyss demon, the starting price is five hundred gold coins, and each increase must not be less than fifty gold coins. ”

"Six hundred gold coins. ”

Someone raised the bidding card in their hand.

"I'll give you seven hundred gold coins. A mage covered in black robes bids.

"Seven hundred and fifty gold coins. "An old mage with his hair braided into braids, and the string of bone beads on the front of his neck clearly indicates that he is a mage who studies necromancy.

After a round of bidding, the price quickly reached 1,000 gold coins, which was already the lowest price given by the obese old man at the beginning, but those bidders didn't seem to have the intention of giving up.

"One thousand one hundred gold. ”

"One thousand two hundred gold coins. ”

……

It's a very pleasant experience to watch people raise prices for their own goods, and even though they are now on the auction table with items that don't belong to them, Pochi has also experienced this feeling.

"Al, looks like you're going to send it!"

Poki patted Al on the shoulder hard, and there was a mixture of congratulations in his tone, as well as some undisguised envy and jealousy.
