Chapter 32: Departure, Auction

Lin Moyang was holding a large box of things, he gently put the things in his arms into the trunk of the car, wiped the sweat on his head and said, "Is there anything else to move?"

Sylbe took a quill and scratched it on the parchment, checked the number of goods in the car, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Your Excellency has really been of great help, if it weren't for Your Excellency, how tiring it would be for a little girl like us to carry these things." ”

Carter threw the box in his hand into the car and expressed his disdain for the tender Silbe: "Hey, hey, where do you look like a little girl, you look like a humanoid tyrannosaurus rex, in addition to being petite, your age is already 2o, right?"

Hearing this, Sylbe sneered and stabbed Carter's waist with her fist, and she smiled: "Then I said that I am a little girl, do I have any opinion on Mr. Carter?"

Carter was stabbed like this, and the desire to survive immediately came up, and he dodged Silbey's hand while laughing: "How can there be, Chairman Silbey's youth and beauty are well known, how can I have an opinion." ”

Silbay nodded in satisfaction, and pointed to the mountain of things piled up on the side: "Please ask Mr. Carter to move the things here, right? ”

Lin Moyang said indifferently: "This is not necessary, you have to use enhanced magic to move these things, I think it's okay, where to move?"

Sylbe advised: "Your Excellency also uses enhanced magic to move things, and excessive consumption of magic power will also affect people's spirits, so let the rats come." ”

Lin Moyang smiled embarrassedly, he didn't feel tired, his enhancement is not to use magic to increase strength, but the strengthening effect that is passively provided when qi flows in the body, he does not have such a thing as using spiritual power to use strengthening, as long as his breath flow does not stop, then he will continue to absorb qi from the outside world for circulation.

"It's okay, big brother, I'm still living on the ground, you can go and rest for a while, I'm fine, I can't move this thing, what kind of man is it, if I let you move something, my dad will definitely kill me." Carter also helped Silbert persuade at this time.

"Anyway, we're just going to an auction, do we have to bring so many things?" Lin Moyang asked, how did this auction do the same as rushing to the market, and it was the kind of people who went to set up stalls, what kind of metal brackets, big signboards, etc., and they had to load several trucks.

"The auction is a cluster of activities, mysterious people from all over the world will participate, in addition to the serious auction in the venue, there are 2o small venues outside the venue to auction some alchemy gadgets, the small venue outside is the same as the market, it is not wrong, our Merlin College will also let students make their own gadgets or potions and other things to sell, which is considered an internship score for students every year, which can be included in the bonus items of the final assessment. Sylbe explained that she was constantly counting what had been brought to the car, crossing off the parchment of the supplies that had been placed, and that although she was not moving, she was the busiest of the group.

Lin Moyang nodded, no wonder this group of students is like a festival, so active, it turns out that it is a project that can add points to the final exam, there must be a lot of bastards who want to pass and a lot of top students who want to open up a gap with their peers for this qualification.

"The students are more cooperative, so the preparation work every year is quite smooth, but the summary is more troublesome, because different students, he expects different dividend ratios, so we have to write down every transaction and funds in detail, and then come back and distribute them, if something goes wrong, I have to compensate." Sylbe kept accounts, and from time to time asked the officers of the student council to adjust the order in which things were placed to avoid problems.

"Okay, it's probably like work-study, but where are we going?" said Lin Moyang.

"A place that no one knows. Sylbe said mysteriously, "The organizer of the auction is the Magic Business Advancement Seminar, referred to as the Magic Chamber of Commerce, almost all the well-known business brands in the wizarding world are members of this association, and they are also the organization with the richest people in the magic organization, and they will choose the location of the auction every year, and then they will spend half a month preparing the venue, of course, every year they will choose an organization to cooperate, and then this organization will be used as a nominal sponsor organization." Last year's auction was somewhere in the Sahara Desert, and we found the location for the event after we got the coordinates. Sylbe recalls last year's auction, where wizards used magic to keep the sand as small as possible, but in the end there was a sandstorm that covered the Merlin Academy's dessert shop and outdoor snack shop when it was finally pulled out of the ground.

"Then where is the venue this year? It won't be in the desert again, right?" Lin Moyang thought it was funny, there didn't seem to be such a big desert in the UK where this group of wizards could gather together, right?

"It's not going to be a desert, and last year the desert venue had the highest number of complaints ever, so this year they will definitely choose a good place. "Carter, see where the coordinates are for this year? I'm too busy here to spare my hands." ”

Silbert now summoned Carter as naturally and casually as moving his hands and feet, and Carter did not dare to disobey, took out a crumpled papyrus from his pocket, leaned over and looked at it for a while, and then he said: "This year is in the Scottish Highlands, and a certain nobleman is willing to lend the castle for this auction, today."

You don't have to worry about having sand all over your head. ”

Silbay glared at Carter fiercely, obviously Carter's mouthy made her very uncomfortable, she said: "This time is good, there is a castle to use, then there is no need to worry about exposure." ”

Lin had heard of the Scottish Highlands, a beautiful place with a beautiful and rumored Loch Ness. But Lin Moyang clearly remembered that there were still people living in that area, which was not in line with the character of this group of wizards.

"This journey is about 1o hours, counting the refueling and other things on the way, are you ready for the trip?" Silbe smiled, this time the location is not too far away, unlike last year, in order to get everything safely delivered, they all took the boat for several days, and when they arrived, the students were turned into eggplant faces.

"Well, I don't care, I've done long trips, and it's not a big problem. Lin Moyang said.

From London to Inverness is only more than 7oo kilometers, which is not as good as the distance from Chengdu to Qujing, which is only where for the Chinese.

"Then Your Excellency should go and rest for a while, we will get in the car after we finish counting our things, and we won't be delayed for too long." Silbe said, this kind of boring preparation, it is better not to let the guests see it, not to mention that Lin Moyang is still volunteering to help move things for a long time today.

"I'm still full of energy, let me be like this for a while. Lin Moyang didn't want to rest at all, he just thought that if this kind of thing was done by a professional moving company, it might be smoother, after all, forklifts are still better able to lift heavy objects than reinforced students, and this group of wizard students is still not completely in line with the times, at this time, the crane and the transport plane should be full.

"I thought there was something like levitation that could move things quickly, but it turned out that I had to do it manually, and it felt a little different from what I was looking at. Lin Moyang said.

"The levitation technique is more tiring than this, the levitation technique consumes magic power and energy, and after the strengthening technique is released, it only needs to consume physical strength, and the recovery of mental power is much slower than physical strength. Carter put another box of stuff in the car and explained. This rich second generation is covered in sweat, and it doesn't look as easy as he says.

Lin Moyang rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then let me move for a while, I'm idle anyway." ”

That afternoon, a convoy of more than a dozen tarpaulin-covered trucks followed by three school buses silently lined up the suburban road.

The number of wizards is not large, and the number of students with them is actually not large, at least not comparable to normal universities, which is why the wizarding world calls the incident of hundreds of students who died that night the most brutal and bloody bloodshed in the new era.

"But I said, is it really okay for so many of you to come out at once?" Lin Moyang saw nearly 8o wizards here, and there were almost more than ninety of them with the driver.

"Isn't it because the situation is getting more complicated now? The Ministry of Magic has unilaterally announced the end of friendly relations with the Round Table Council, and now the Ministry of Magic has begun to work on a draft to ban the Round Table Council. Hmph, those aristocratic lords really defined the Round Table Council as an 'illegal civil organization', and they don't look at who is more like a civil organization now. Carter sat in his seat with his arms crossed, his face was pale, and if he hadn't clasped his hands in front of his chest, he would probably have slumped to the ground, and he had experienced the life of a mule today.

"Ah, the candy is gone. Liliel didn't care much about the topics the students were discussing, she wore a white rabbit pattern blindfold, leaned on Lin Moyang's shoulder, and said in a daze,

Lin Moyang tilted his head and glanced at Lilil, this product actually chewed candy all night yesterday, I was really afraid that she would roll on the ground one day because of tooth decay. She forgot to sleep and rest because of her greedy mouth, she guessed she was the first, or did she have a biological clock that had been adjusted for thousands of years and adapted to nocturnal activities?

Lin Moyang sighed, turned his head to meet Moira's gaze, and the girl nodded shyly and politely to Lin Moyang.

Originally, freshmen did not have the opportunity to join the auction team, but Moira is the current president of the Apocalypse Society, and the Apocalypse Society has already submitted a representative application this time, so she will replace the late President Joshua to participate in this auction.

Lin Moyang said half-jokingly: "Last time I shared a car with you, I ended up ambushing a guy of unknown origin halfway, this time it shouldn't be, right?"

Sylbe reminded solemnly: "This is not necessarily, although the hidden evil forces in the wizarding world are generally not strong, but they are very troublesome, they always like to do something to brush up their presence, the Round Table Council and the Ministry of Magic have not had a good way to eradicate this phenomenon for so many years, so this time the team is also with a lot of protection personnel." ”

Lin Moyang turned his head and glanced at the school bus behind the car he was sitting in, there were more than a dozen adults in different clothes, older than the students here, and they were also talking and laughing in the car.

"After the fall out between the Ministry of Magic and the Council of the Round Table, the guards they were supposed to send over did not arrive at the agreed time, and then they didn't explain much about it, and there was no response to the news we went, so we had to hire some reputable hires from the freelance wizard profession

The wizard has come to act as a guard. Sylbe sighed, "Fortunately, this time, through contact with the pilgrims, Lord Galahad agreed to give this work as a commission to the pilgrims, who are much more trustworthy than the scattered free wizards, thanks to Sister Natasha." ”

Natasha sat on the chair in front of her, there was no one sitting beside her, and no student who was not afraid of death dared to come and talk to the pilgrim's iceberg royal sister, she sat on the chair, with an open tablet on her lap and headphones in her ears, as if she was doing some work, and when she heard Silbe's words, she turned her head to look at it, and then said: "No thanks, it's just a matter of duty." Even if you don't have me, you might report your needs to pilgrims like this, and there are more than 10,000 graders registered on the pilgrim's commission website in the wizarding world, most of them are wizards of different levels, as long as you ask for a commission, you can always find a suitable candidate. ”

"It seems to be very good, can this pilgrim's peripheral personnel make money?" Lin Moyang asked, this is still something he is more concerned about, although he is now a multimillionaire, but he is a poor person.

"Pilgrims provide a registration function, and after registering on the site, a specialist will evaluate their abilities, and after obtaining a rating of ability, they can accept commissions, and pilgrims will only take a small commission. The registered persons are neither part of the Pilgrim's staff nor subordinates of the Pilgrim, and the parties and the Pilgrim are in an employment relationship. If you're interested, I can register you for a class that doesn't need to be assessed for your abilities, and you're able to perform dangerous tasks. Natasha glanced at Lin Moyang and said.

"A-class? I thought I was S-class, but is there still so many powerful people among the pilgrim registration?" Lin Moyang asked curiously.

"Of course not, if you only discuss combat effectiveness, most of the S-rank are not your opponents, and this is only a case of fighting against humans, if you are fighting against mythical species, then they are not as good as you. However, this ability rating is a comprehensive evaluation, including the seriousness of the person's task and the overall ability he has shown in previous tasks. There are a few people in the S-class who have very weak magical abilities, but have particularly strong overall command skills, and when there is a suitable commission, they are the priority targets, and other personnel are also happy to team up with them. Conversely, there are a few people who like to sacrifice their teammates in the execution of missions, so their rating priority has now been almost reduced to a minimum, and a few have even been forcibly terminated from their contracts. Natasha said.

"If your abilities are a little more stable, then you have the potential to be classified as S-class. If your ability grows a little more, then your level can also rise to S+ or even supernumerary, which is what we often call EX level. The EX-class is not considered to be a member of the Pilgrim's staff, but in the mission, it has the same authority as the eight stars, and during the mission, it can even directly command the eight departments of the Pilgrim without violating the regulations. Of course, the list of EX-class is in the direct hands of His Excellency Galahad, and I have only seen three of them now. Natasha said.

The students pricked up their ears, and Natasha did not shy away from mentioning the secrets of these pilgrims, and they naturally listened very carefully, which was a big news that would never be heard in ordinary conversations.

Even Carter listened very seriously, the peripheral registration of the pilgrim, in fact, he also registered quietly, but his magic ability is not outstanding, so the rating is only b-, although considering that his family's financial resources may be higher, but the peripheral personnel are originally to complete the commission to earn money, how can it be upside down, so the financial resources are not taken into account as a criterion. And the EX-level personnel of the pilgrims are all immortal-level personnel, because even the new generation leaders like Green Bein, who are well-known in the wizarding world, heard that the rating is only S-level, and there is still room for improvement from the evaluation level of S+.

"Your master, Your Excellency Fenglong, the True Knower, and the late Galdebein, the former head of the Last Knights, these are the three EX-class supernumeraries I have seen, and I have not seen any others. Natasha said, whispering on the bus every time she said her name.

Carter was also shocked, although he knew that the EX-level were all immortals, but he didn't expect these people to be so strong, he didn't know Yu Mingkai, but Fenglong and Gardebein were about to become modern legends in the wizarding world.

"So you want to register? There's no due, and there's no number of commissions to be completed. It's very free. Natasha seemed to be instigating.

"Uh...... It seems to be able to make some extra money, and it sounds like a commission organization in those anime.,It's very powerful.,So sign me up for one.。 Lin Moyang also said excitedly, the novelty is greater than other ideas.

Lin Moyang's hardcore analogy made Natasha frown, but she still nodded, reached out and pressed quickly on her tablet.

After a while, she looked up and said, "Okay, when we get to the place, there will be a special pilgrim staff to give you a special contact." Your current number is B.31. Congratulations. Natasha congratulated with a cold face.

"Huh?" Lin Moyang didn't expect that he would become a B.31 so hastily, and he didn't even have an interview process?

"My authority can't directly grant you A-class status, but I've submitted your application directly to Lord Galahad, and he'll do a second check. Natasha buried herself in her business and went about her business, leaving B.31 with a confused face.
