Chapter 102: Black Cobblestone
The hostess, of course, could not hear Pochi's slander at them, and she briefly introduced the Blizzard Auction House's relic auction with the usual words and flowery rhetoric used by the host, and then the auction began.
The first relic auction item is a metalwork that looks extremely intricately made, and according to the hostess's commentary, it comes from the abandoned city of Cavins in the West.
It is the remnants of an ancient civilization, and it is famous for its intricate and magical mechanical artifacts, many of which may not be usable today, but if studied by actuarial dwarfs or human engineers who love engineering mechanics, it may bring great inspiration and inspiration.
This is indeed a good opening lot.
This delicate piece of metal machinery did ignite some people's enthusiasm, and its price soon rose to 100 gold coins after a few auction increases.
Don't underestimate this 100 gold coins, the tuition fee for an academic year in Ceylon is only that, and the vast majority of teachers in Ceylon colleges do not even have a salary of 50 gold coins a month.
The second lot didn't disappoint either, a lifelike engraving of a daily hunting scene from an ancient humanoid civilization, which was of little use in magic or alchemy, but it was a treasure for those who had a hobby for the future.
Finally, the second lot was sold at a more satisfactory price.
However, not all of the lots were sold at very good prices, and one of them was met with a cold shoulder.
It was also an item from the abandoned city of Cavins in the West, it was only the size of two or three palms, the whole body was cylindrical, the head was not mechanical but it was thicker than the body and tail, and the amazing thing was that the object seemed to be usable, and at the press of a button, the head of the machine, which was larger than the body, began to vibrate wildly.
Make a 'buzzing' sound.
The hostess explained while putting the head of the machine on her neck, which seemed to be quite comfortable.
But this seemingly magical and high-tech thing was ignored by everyone, because no matter how it looked, it looked like a massage device, so even if it was produced in the abandoned Western city of Cavins, and it could still be used, there was not much interest in it.
Eventually, this strange piece of equipment was bought by a woman.
Al was obviously not very interested in the strange ruins in front of him, but suddenly another ruin in the back attracted him.
"The origin of this auction item is quite simple, it comes from the Abyss Rift, yes, it is the ancient ruins that were said to have been close to the battlefield of gods and demons. ”
The hostess's words instantly aroused everyone's interest.
Because the Abyss Rift Valley is so famous.
Legend has it that the Abyss Rift Valley was originally just a plain before, because of the destructive power of the gods and demons, it caused the deepest and largest rift on the Eternal Continent, and it is also the largest scar on the continent, and it is even said that the Abyss Rift Valley is the place where the strongest demon king in history fell.
As the ancient battlefield of the ancient gods and demons, many terrifying ruins can be seen in the Abyss Rift Valley until now, and similarly, this place where there has been a tragic battle, sprinkled with the blood and bodies of countless gods and demons, is also scattered with countless weapons and equipment of gods and demons, which is the so-called gods and demons.
Most of these scattered gods and demons were completely destroyed in that terrifying battle along with the fallen masters, but after all, a small number will survive, and when they fall into the hands of mortals, it is the moment when they regain their brilliance and vitality, which is even more glorious and glorious than they used to be, after all, their opponents are no longer peers who are also gods and silent weapons, but only magical weapons made by mortals, or even just ordinary bronze and black iron swords.
So when they heard that the next auction item was from the Abyss Rift, all the audience instantly cheered up.
As far as rationality is concerned, if it is a real god and demon weapon, it will not be auctioned off by the ruins auction, but as long as everyone has **, there is a so-called luck mentality.
Luck always thinks like this.
Maybe it's just a real god and demon weapon, but it's just a temporary dust, and maybe it can shine in your own hands?
There may be secrets that no one has discovered, so you can try it yourself.
……
There is no need to analyze everyone's possible thoughts one by one, and the introduction of the hostess has undoubtedly aroused everyone's interest.
With a wave of the hostess's hand, a bright light hit the auction table from a high place, and the fourth auction item finally showed its true face.
The thing wrapped in crimson velvet cloth looked inconspicuous, it was a pitch-black oval hemisphere, about the size of half a watermelon, and there was not a single rune, holy light, celestial or demonic text on it that could indicate its identity, and it did not carry any supernatural properties such as transparency, luminescence, floating, etc.
It's too ordinary.
If it hadn't appeared on the Blizzard auction table, but somewhere else, it would have been treated like a black stone that could be seen everywhere.
Of course, even if such a thing appears on Blizzard's auction table, it does not mean that it will not be questioned by others.
"Miss Host, may I ask, is this thing really found in the Abyss Rift? Well, no, or should I ask, does something found in the Abyss Rift be necessarily a good thing? If I go to the Abyss Rift and dig up a grass, and then hold it to the Blizzard Auction, can it also be auctioned as a grass from the Abyss Rift?"
A middle-aged mage sitting in the front row asked with a smile.
There was a round of knowingly laughter.
In the face of this somewhat pointed question and the laughter around her, the hostess did not panic, and she was able to stand in this place because of more than her excellent looks and figure.
"First of all, thank you for your question, this question is actually what I want to say, first of all, the Abyss Rift Valley is a well-known dangerous place, not to mention ordinary people, even high-level magicians or great knights dare not set foot alone, you must know that the strong people who fall or disappear in the Abyss Rift Valley every year are not something that can be counted on one hand. The person who can enter the Abyss Grand Canyon and return safely should be no worse than everyone here, right?"
"So please believe their vision, I think the vision of those strong people will never be so bad as to take an ordinary stone as a treasure from a place like the Abyss Grand Canyon. ”
The hostess smiled and groaned.
