As the auction approaches, Jumbo Bay becomes more and more lively. The streets and alleys are crowded with bustling crowds all day long. There are traders who often travel from all over the world, as well as wealthy people, aristocrats, collectors, and just people who come to join in the fun.

In the afternoon, Miria dragged Eugari and followed Brala, and began their shopping spree again. They first came to the most famous jewelry store in Jumbo Bay, Deep Blue Jewelry City.

"How's that, it's beautiful, isn't it?" Miria placed a sparkling pearl necklace around Eugari's neck and said, "The pearl jewelry here is world-famous." Hey? That one seems pretty good, too. As he spoke, he reached out and took a string of silver-white pearl necklaces with a strong luster for Yujiali to put on, and then pushed Yujiali to a standing mirror, "What do you think?" ”

"Well, I think they're all pretty good!" Yugari looked in the mirror and said with satisfaction.

"Ahh Could that person be ......?" said Suddenly, Miria looked at a woman with long silver hair in the distance.

Following Miria's gaze, in front of the counter in the distance, a beautiful woman with a graceful and graceful body, accompanied by a tall and burly bodyguard, followed by several attendants, casually browsing the goods in the store.

"It's so beautiful." Yugari couldn't help but admire.

"That's Shi Shi. It is known as one of the three beauties of the human continent. Miria continued, surprised, "I didn't expect her to come here. I guess I'm here to participate in the auction. ”

"Three beauties?"

"yes. Limu, the second daughter of the prime minister of the Kingdom of Timia, Ariana, the princess of the Kingdom of Tranquility, and Shi Shi, the president of the Adventurer Kingdom's Dependents Guild, are known as the most beautiful women in the human continent. They are often seen in many books and newspapers. Miria explained.

"Shall we ask for an autograph or something?" Yujali asked excitedly.

"Forget it then." Miria said a little arrogantly, "I'm just surprised she's here." Don't just look at people's appearance! Connotation is also very important! ”

After coming out of the jewelry city, Yugari and the others went to the nearby shoe and hat store again.

"The sun is shining on the beach here." Miria took a very exaggerated straw hat and said to Euchari, "Do you want to wear a straw hat?" ”

"I don't have to." Yujali cut her hairband and said, "It feels weird to wear a headband and a hat." But Eugari took the straw hat and put it on Miria's head, pulled her to the mirror, and said, "But I think this straw hat is still very suitable for Miria." ”

"Hmm...... It's okay. Miria looked in front of the mirror and pouted, "But I don't like hats very much, they flatten my hair." ”

After coming out of the shoe and hat store, Blala added many shopping bags to her hands. "I said I didn't like it, but I bought it anyway." Brala complained as she followed Miria.

"There's a dessert shop there, how about we go over and try it?" Miria asked, pulling Yujari.

"Okay." Yugari happily replied, "It's almost time for afternoon tea." ”

"No problem this time, right?" Miria asked, squinting at Blana next to her.

"I'd never object to eating." Blala said seriously.

So, Yugari and the others walked quickly into the dessert shop opposite. As soon as I entered the store, I saw several young people in front of the counter who were very avant-garde arguing loudly. At first, they didn't care, they sat down at a table near the window, ordered some delicious desserts and special black tea, and watched the endless flow of people outside, gossiping about all kinds of news over and over again, and enjoying the afternoon leisurely. However, as the quarrel in front of the counter became louder and louder, Yujiali and the others looked over unconsciously.

"How many times have I said that! You have to apologize and then compensate me for my loss! Otherwise, don't want to leave here today! A tall and thin man with curly hair and a very fancy dress shouted with a red face. The two companions beside him, who seemed to be in his group, were also pointing fingers and echoing loudly.

Standing across from them was a man in a strange mask, who stood at the counter in a daze, motionless as to the chef inside, neither replying nor making any moves, as if they didn't exist at all. After a while, the waitress took a box of gorgeously packaged desserts and handed it over, "Mr. Jia Yong, your customized cake." I've kept you waiting. ”

The man took the cake, still ignoring his surroundings, and turned around to leave.

"Stop!" The curly-haired man roared violently, and then reached out to grab Jia Yong's shoulder.

At the moment when the man's arm just touched Jia Yong's shoulder, Jia Yong turned around suddenly, and a silver-gray sledgehammer swept across the man's back with a gust of cold wind, knocking him out of the store door heavily, causing the customers in the store to scream. Seeing this, the other two immediately pulled out their weapons, but before they could rush up, Jia Yong turned around again and knocked the two out of the door together in the same way.

At this time, the curly-haired man who had just been knocked away had already climbed up. Although there was blood at the corner of his mouth, it didn't seem that the injury was very serious, and at least he could hold on for a while. He summoned a jet-black broad-leaf broad-leaf broad-leaf knife, clenched his hands, raised it above his head, rushed to Jia Yong's front in three steps and two steps, and slashed at Jia Yong's face with all his strength. "Die——!"

Jia Yong unhurriedly raised the sledgehammer with one hand at this time. With a loud crash, the curly-haired man was knocked to the ground, and the broadsword was also flicked out. Jia Yong glanced at the man coldly with a bedbug-like look, then pushed him aside with a sledgehammer, and then put away the sledgehammer unhurriedly and walked out of the store without saying a word, leaving only the man who was still lying on the ground and moaning.

"Who is that?" Yugari asked, "Judging by his movements, he must be a very powerful adventurer, right?" ”

"I don't know." Miria complained, "But she looks sluggish on the outside, and she probably looks like Brala, so she's a stupid type." ”

"......" Blala continued to eat with an unhappy face.

"It seems that there are a lot of people here this time." After coming out of the dessert shop, Yugari looked at the crowd of people in the streets and alleys.

"yes, it's a rare auction after all. Do you look at a few people over there, are they familiar? Miria gestured to a few men who had just come out of a weapons shop.

"Yike...... Aren't those who were the same people who were bothering us on the beach of Night Harbor before...... Why are they ...... too?"

At this time, several men on the opposite side also recognized Yujali and them. The man in the lead pursed his lips and walked away with the others with a look of disgust.

After that, they went to some clothing stores, cosmetics stores, and grocery stores. For dinner, they went to a seafood restaurant near the beach and enjoyed a delicious dinner while watching the sunset. Blala was unhappy looking at the large bags of goods piled up like a hill next to her, while eating the grilled fragrant squid.

"Even the prize money from the pet contest that Yaqi put here with me is almost spent." Yujiali thought embarrassedly as she ate the seafood set.

"Is there anything Jiali would like to buy at auction?" Miria asked.

"Well......" Yugari looked at the roof and thought for a moment, "it doesn't seem like there's anything special, so let's take a look first, in case there's anything unexpected." What about Miria? Are there any plans? ”

"I'd like to see if there are any rare books or important texts, especially about Quelstein or the field of magical studies." Miria said seriously, "After all, there are a lot of lost materials that are basically not found in the ordinary market. ”

"You really love to read and learn."

"Hmm...... I can't help it. After all, as the heir of the family, there is still a lot to learn in the future, whether it is governing the territory or studying in the Magic Association. There will probably be fewer and fewer days like this. ”

"Why, you don't care what you do in the future. We'll go out shopping together. ”

"Hmm!" Miria replied happily.

"Where's Brala? What do you want? Eugari asked.

"It would be nice to have a big meal that will never be finished." Brala said as she ate.

"This ...... I think it's unlikely......"

"So what are you going to auction anonymously? Didn't we win a free ticket at the pet contest? Miria asked.

"Well...... Can I sell anything? ”

"That's usually true. Usually the auction items are participated by the guild in name, but the guild is generally hindered by some restrictions, whether it is reputation or word of mouth, especially the big guild, so the auction items are decent, and there will be nothing too out of the ordinary. However, if it is an anonymous auction, the Guild Alliance also tacitly allows the auction of some 'contraband', so basically everyone is a little 'unscrupulous' when auctioning anonymously. However, the fees charged for anonymous auctions are usually much higher than those charged for ordinary auctions. But we have a free ticket here. That is, all the income of the auction goes to the auctioneer, and the organizer will not charge any fees. I think that's the best reward for the Pet Contest. ”

"I see." Yugari thought for a moment, "But I don't have anything to handle." I might have sold some of the materials that Konya gave me earlier. That's it. As she spoke, she pulled out a pair of fangs of the leader of the night bulls.

Miria took it and looked at it carefully for a while, and said coldly, "It's indeed a good thing, but I think it can be used as a material for a mid-to-high-grade "normal-level" weapon at most, and it's good if it can exceed one gold coin." Nothing better? ”

"It's a pity that there's nothing left to sell. What about Miria? Anything to sell? ”

"No, I carry around with me things that I use regularly, and I don't plan to sell them at all. It looks like a free ticket is going to be wasted. Miria said disappointedly.

The gentle night breeze blows on the silvery beach, making it extra comfortable for those who come here for a walk. Eugarie and Miria also chatted at the beach restaurant until late before returning to the hotel. At the end of a busy day's work, they lay in bed and soon fell asleep.

The auction will take place on the most prosperous Hailan Avenue in Treasure Bay. The auction hall is equipped with three floors of seats and VIP boxes, and the layout of the whole hall is fan-shaped, without column structure, and the auction table can be seen without dead corners for more than 3,000 seats. The top of the auction hall is dome-shaped and meets the curved walls, showing a beautiful design of water and sky. On the morning of the auction, the place was full of people. They finished the admission procedures early and came to the seats on the second floor, waiting for the auction to begin.

As more and more guests took their seats, a tall middle-aged man in a black dress and an azure bow tie appeared in the center of the auction table. "Ladies and gentlemen!" The middle-aged man said in a loud voice, "I am the auctioneer of this auction, and I am very honored to preside over this grand and grand auction. On behalf of the organizers of this conference, the Adventurers' Guild Alliance, I would like to welcome you all to this unparalleled auction in Treasure Bay! ……”

"Are all the big events organized by the Guild Alliance?" Yugari leaned into Miria's ear next to her and asked in a low voice.

"It's only a few big events across the country. Most of the others are initiated by individual guilds, or by a combination of guilds, and then approved by the guild federation. There aren't many events that are actually initiated by the Guild Alliance. Miria replied in a low voice.

"This grand auction officially starts today and lasts for a total of three days. The three-day schedule has been sent to everyone when they enter the venue. You can flexibly arrange your own time according to your own interests. At this time, standing next to the auctioneer, a young woman wearing a red cheongsam with her hair in a high bun said radiantly.

"When are the auctions we are participating in?" Miria asked in a whisper.

"I'll take a look." Yujiali took a large stack of materials and bills, flipped through them, and whispered, "It's this afternoon, the third appearance." I read the schedule above and said that most of the time during the day was an auction session, and in the evening there was a masquerade ball for all participants. Is Miria interested? ”

"Well...... Generally, masquerade balls are an occasion for guild representatives or celebrities from all over the world to socialize. If you want to get to know the people of the upper class of this country, you can also get involved. However, we are not familiar with the place of life this time, and no one has introduced us, so if we participate like this, it feels a little abrupt. Let's see what happens. Miria said.

"Then, after introducing the schedule of today's auction, let's officially enter the long-awaited auction!" With thunderous applause from the audience, a young lady in a pink cheongsam pushed a display cart covered with a big red mopping scarf onto the auction stand. "Thank you to our assistant lady for giving us the first auction item of the day. This is the "Wanderer of the Night", a top-notch weapon of the "Elite Rank" brought back by the Wolf Shadow Guild from a distant barbarian country! With that, the auctioneer lifted the scarf. A pitch-black narrow long sword with a faint dark energy appeared in front of everyone.

"Oh——!" At the same time, the audience let out bursts of exclamations.

"This long sword is said to have been obtained from the treasure house of the Wolf King's castle. Not only is it extremely durable, but it is also so light that even a weak woman with no power can wield it effortlessly. Definitely the best choice for all adventurers who are looking for speed, agility, and lightness! Speaking of this, the auctioneer paused and asked the woman wearing a red cheongsam beside him, "So, what is the starting price of such a rare and superb weapon?" ”

"The starting price of this weapon is - a thousand gold!" The woman in the red cheongsam said loudly.

"Did you hear me clearly? The starting price of this unique weapon is just 1,000 gold coins! The auctioneer exaggeratedly said, "Now, please prepare the auction cards in your hands." Start bidding! ”

As the auctioneer's words landed, the auction cards under the stage were raised in an endless stream.

"The Light Breeze Guild has bid one thousand and one hundred gold! Over there, the Red Cloud Guild is 1,200 gold! Sword Song Sky Guild 1,300 gold! "The auctioneer is constantly loudly announcing the bidding prices of the guilds.

"It says that the bid for each auction cannot be less than one-tenth of the starting price." Yujiali explained to everyone while looking at the information.

"How can this kind of thing be sold for so much money?" Konya said disdainfully.

"The equipment of the 'Elite level' is the best equipment that the average adventurer can obtain. Slightly better weapons basically cost thousands of gold coins, and the best ones can even be fried for tens of thousands of gold. Only a very small number of adventurers have "rare" equipment, and it is basically impossible to buy it in the market. Most of them risk their lives around the world to collect all kinds of precious materials and ask special masters to create them. Therefore, the starting price of this "Elite Class" weapon is still acceptable. Miria explained earnestly.

"Shall we bid too?" Li Yaqi looked at Youjiali and said excitedly.

"Huh?!" Agari was startled and replied, "What do you want it for?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just fun. Hey. Li Yaqi said with a grin.

"Forget it. We don't have that much money! Yugari said solemnly.

"Sixteen hundred gold! Is there anything else? "At this point, the auctioneer has already begun to confirm the price of the lot." Then, I announce that this "Wanderer in the Night" brought back from the Barbarian Realm by the Wolf Shadow Guild will finally belong to the Black and White Cat Guild for 1,600 gold! Let's congratulate them! With the auctioneer's announcement, the audience also erupted in a round of congratulatory applause.

"It's not worth that much money." Konya continued to complain.

"It's like, if you have the money to buy more meat to eat, okay?" Brala said approvingly.

"After the intense first round of auctions, we immediately present a more precious and rare second auction item for you." While the auctioneer was speaking, the assistant lady pushed the cart covered with a red scarf to the auction table again.

"Ugh. I really want to buy something to go back. Or it would not have been in vain.'" Li Yaqi complained in her heart.
