Chapter 308: Foreplay
He walked out from the right side of the auction table, not fast, the white robe on his body was embroidered with a dark gold wide edge, the large hibiscus pattern on it slowly swayed with his steps, and the gems on the edge of the robe shone with fine light, making the whole white robe look gorgeous and simple beauty-
Just like the man in this white robe. γγ
He is no longer the low-eyed and pleasing attendant in front of Lin An, his thick sword eyebrows are flying, there is a hint of a smile on the corner of his lips, his deep blue eyes are flashing with broken gold, his body is long and strong, he is a typical beautiful man who is very in line with the aesthetics of the times, with the heroic spirit that people in the military appreciate, but he does not have an excessive sense of aggression, and it is easy to be accepted by people's first impression.
He stood in front of the stage and glanced at the audience.
The arena gradually fell silent.
Then he picked up the huge golden bell with gems on the long handle on the high desk and shook it, and the golden bell jingled crisply twice, accompanied by an invisible wave that swept through the audience, quieting everyone.
The room where Lin An and Sidney were located was isolated from the fluctuations, but the crisp sound of the bell also made their hearts feel relaxed and relaxed.
Everyone's eyes are focused on him, scrutinizing, judging, curious, exploring, etc., which means so much. γγ
He didn't shy away, smiled and looked back at each other one by one, and that gaze revealed a strong confidence and confidence, making everyone feel that he had looked at themselves once-
Presiding over a black market auction, and it is such a large auction, the gentle etiquette and passionate eloquence that are common to the general auction host are not common here, and only by making people feel that he and the auctioneer behind him have the confidence corresponding to the scale of this auction, can the participants be at ease.
Of course, the auctioneer has used the venue and various previous means to deter most of the people, otherwise the host alone would not be able to completely calm the scene.
But even then, the scene was far from peaceful.
"Distinguished guests. Ladies and gentlemen, as well as all my friends from the auction, old and new, welcome to our first auction today!
I'm the host and first auctioneer, Chris. Sephiroth, as you can call it directly in Lower Cliff......"
A low, slippery and magnetic voice. A loudspeaker on the high desk in front of Tong GuΓ² resounded through the room, from the mouths of the beasts on the four walls of the venue. "Chris" began his opening remarks. But a fiery voice interrupted his voiceβ
"Don't talk so much nonsense, little white face! You got us to this hellish place, and what kind of tricks and feet did you do to suppress my vindictiveness! β
The speaker was a big man, his arms and thighs exposed outside the leather robe were thicker than Lin An's waist, and the long axe in his hand pounded on the floor in front of him, seemingly arrogant but not without brains, and even knew how to provoke the anger of the other participants.
"We trust you to come here for the auction, but you don't want to talk about the weirdness of this place. Is it our intention to suppress our vindictiveness and magic? β
ββ¦β¦ Suppressing vindictiveness and magic is a unique feature of this venue, and it treats everyone equally, including myself and my subordinates at the auctioneer. This is to ensure that the auction can be carried out in good order - this ...... Guest number 78,"
Chris glanced down at the big man standing behind the right side of the public gallery, and his voice was slightly lengthened. Gently flipped through the pages of a book on the table, and anyone who noticed the book could only see a colorful pattern flying by, and then Chris's slender fingers inserted one of the pages, and stopped,
"If I'm not mistaken, you are the most companion among the new guests invited today, led by Mr. 85, No. 6, No. 19, No. 23, No. 24, No. 46, No. 59, No. 70, No. 91 and No. 163 are all sitting next to or near you, it can be said that the strength is not inferior to any of the guests present, you strive to let go of the power of the venue to suppress the guests, I don't know what the purpose is?"
Everyone was in an uproar, and they all glanced at the people around Dahan and near him, but they didn't find the same clothes as Dahan, and the few numbers of people who were pointed out by Chris were even tightly covered with cloaks, and they sat far away from the big man, and they couldn't tell that they were in a group at all. γγ
"You! You...... Nonsense! β
The big man thundered, his eyes widened fiercely, and the hand holding the handle of the axe was bruised, but those who watched closely from close could probably see that he was inward.
"At 14 o'clock, you spoke three sentences with guest 46, a total of 75 words, and the time did not exceed 30 hours;
At 2:00 p.m., the note from guest 23 was passed to guest No. 6, 19 and 91 respectively, with the same content, but the note to guest 19 had a spelling error, which should have been a hasty mistake when guest 24 wrote;
At 15 o'clock, guests 70 and 163 made a preliminary survey of the sculptures around the venue, and had a brief exchange with guests 46 and 6 respectively during the walk......
In the end, the conclusions and information obtained by all of you were collected in the hands of the No. 85 guest. γγβ
Chris's speed of speech was calm and steady, unmoved by the fierce reaction of the big man, his gaze shifted from the big man to a mage wearing a metal mask in the back row, and quietly asked lightly:
"Your Excellency, do you need to elaborate on what was involved in the conversation with you below?"
People's eyes were instantly focused on the mage, and they all realized that this was the "first" No. 85 in the auctioneer's mouth.
The eyes exposed by the metal mask were black, and they were originally very low-key hidden in the crowd, but then raised his head and looked at Chris on the high platform for a moment, and a pale hand slowly took off the metal mask, revealing a cold male face, and the owner of the face said coldly:
"You're very capable."
The venue was even more uproaring, and many people were discussing.
"It's little Homeman, General Homeman's youngest son!"
"Sure enough, it's him, I guessed when I saw that big man, it's General Homan's personal soldiers......"
"With so many people, it's really powerful, look at the rune on the mask on his body-"
"The auctioneer is not simple, it has been monitoring the venue, otherwise how could it be ......?"
The venue became more and more noisy, and at the same time, some people moved their positions to isolate themselves from Xiao Heman and the others, and the people brought by Xiao Heman also gathered towards him, and ten people were close together, and there was a small space around them, which was very eye-catching. γγ
"Haha, Homan, I didn't expect you to come here and bring so many people!"
A warrior in the other corner of the venue stood up, laughed and tore off a thin mask on his face, revealing the unruly face below, raised his chin and said provocatively to Little Homan,
"I don't have a father who is a general like you, and I don't bring as many people as you, but the money in my hand is not necessarily as good as you, so it's better for us to compare?"
As he spoke, three or four people near him stood up and approached the warrior who spoke, carrying a large bag of things in his hand, the bulging bag had an uneven shape, and it was not difficult for others to think of what was inside from the warrior's words, and many people's eyes lit up for a while.
"Nouveau riche."
Little Homeman ignored the warrior, his pursed lips moved invisibly, and his voice was so small that he couldn't even hear his nearby relatives.
His gaze turned to the high platform, Chris was standing behind the high desk, looking at the situation below with a smile, pressing one hand on the book, seeing him look over, leaned over slightly and performed a flawless aristocratic salute, and once again opened his voice to attract everyone's attention:
"It's an honor for us to be recognized by all of you."
"Yes, Chris, you're a good fellow, an honest fellow, I guess I've brought so much money with me, and I can't hide your identity from your eyes for a long time-"
The warrior was surrounded by his subordinates, ignoring the crowd staring at them, and spoke with a cunning and dangerous glint in his eyes, "Look, now that I have revealed my identity and so many people are staring at me, can you ensure my safety?" β
"Regardless of whether or not the real identity is revealed, we absolutely guarantee the absolute safety of all guests in the auction hall."
Chris didn't know if he could see the intention of the warrior, and smiled slightly and said, "All of you have the guest voucher for this auction in your hands, and you can rely on the imprint in the voucher at any time to leave the auction site-"
He paused, "Provided, of course, before the first auction item is officially on the scene. We will prohibit entry and exit during the auction, and the voucher will be temporarily invalid, otherwise all the visitors present who intend to auction or have already auctioned the auction items may not agree to someone exposing the auction situation in advance. β
"Of course, the first lot has not yet appeared, and visitors who are interested in leaving the auction still have time to leave."
The people's expressions suddenly became strange, and they seemed to be ready to move, after all, the inside of the auction they saw along the way was very different from what they had originally imagined, and they not only wanted to spread the news, but also were greedy for the people and wealth gathered in the auction.
The face of the warrior who spoke earlier suddenly sank.
He guessed that his identity had long been known to the auctioneer, and for the safety of the money in his hands, he simply blew up his identity to protect himself, and he also saw that the auctioneer put on such a big scene, and would never allow a guest like him to have an accident.
Now that this auctioneer named Chris is like this, he who has already exposed his identity and wealth is simply the biggest target, how can his face not be gloomy.
But his face became clear again with Chris's movements of turning the pages of the book, and he looked around at the people around him who were originally a little moved, but now their faces were pale and still good-looking, and laughed:
"Of course I believe in your strength!"
Then he smiled eerily and said, "If you have any accidents after the auction, you can go to the auctioneer's list to leave early, I believe you can always find the creditor!" β
This is simply a person who turns the muzzle of the gun naked and intends to leave.
Everyone had seen with their own eyes how little Holman was exposed, and then they couldn't help but turn their eyes to the book that the auctioneer's hand was flipping through.
