259. I really want to be a demigod
After a series of thrilling bids, the final price of the diamond was fixed at 23,300 gold, a very joyful figure.
After Gallo started bidding, only one person had about four or five rounds of stalemate with him, and then gave up, and there was no malicious price increase, and then he pretended to be slapped in the face.
At first, when bidding with that opponent, Gallo was actually quite nervous.
He didn't even quote a specific number to bid, but clapped a small bell on his hand, which was given to him by the reception lady, if he needed to increase the price, he rang the bell directly, and the outside would help him quote.
I have to say that this mysterious treasure chamber of commerce understands the psychology of customers very well, and when people are full of entanglement and hesitation in their hearts, they often don't want to speak, and they are more considerate when they change to rattle.
And Gallo, while raising the price, has been thinking and hesitating.
If this person has been maliciously raising the price, is it considered to hinder his faith and practice the instructions of the goddess?
If so, isn't the question simple?
Gallo couldn't help but look forward to the fact that the man could continue to top, and it was best to top the price to more than 100,000 gold, more than his entire net worth.
In this way, he has been convicted of hindering his beliefs, and he can try to teach him to be a new man...
I don't need a copper to come out!
Sadly, the man gave up.
Although I couldn't prostitute this diamond for nothing, the final result was not bad?
The total cost of tonight was only a little more than 30,000 gold, which could be paid by Gallo's own savings, and before using the check given by Mader, the situation was even better than he expected, and the money could be invested elsewhere.
Gallo had achieved his goal and was in a good mood, so he lay on his back on the sofa and prepared to watch the final result of the auction in the mood of watching the excitement.
The little bell, which was no longer needed, was casually thrown on the table by him.
As for the other girls, they got together and chatted about some topics among girls, seemingly in terms of dress? Discussing the gifts given by Gallo tonight, how to match them.
Gallo couldn't interject at all, so he could only focus on the auction.
The exhibits in the back are the highlight of tonight, no longer ordinary decorations, but some magic props with exquisite workmanship, exquisite materials and practical functions!
It must be very lively, right?
Behind the diamond, is a pair of bracelets inlaid with various colored jewelry, the function is simple and practical, is a space bag, the specific space is about the size of a bag, and can only store money and jewelry such as dead things, can not put food, let alone small milk cats.
Gallo is naturally not interested in this kind of thing, and it is also a space bag, which is too far from his own sleeve, whether it is the size of the storage space or the versatility of the function.
His own sleeves, but he can store food and put a little milk cat!
The key is that such a space bracelet with a small function was actually topped to more than 50,000 gold coins in the end?
Gallo couldn't help but frown...
The enchantment that I worked hard to arrange, using the industry's latest design ideas, tossed back and forth for a long time, from design to material selection to layout, it was really painstaking.
Although Lady Carola's side spent almost 50,000 gold, the last one in Gallo's hands was only 20,000 gold.
But such a palm-sized bracelet is actually sold for as much as his own enchantment?
Maybe that's the auction, right?
Gallo felt a little unworthy for the buyer, and then asked the reception lady at the door, whose sheep were so fat?
This person can spend 50,000 gold to buy a space bracelet, can he also spend the same price to arrange an enchantment by himself?
The reception lady went to inquire a little, and soon came back to report.
It turned out that Gallo, the person who bought the bracelet, also knew Sir Donald, who he hadn't seen for a long time.
As a jeweller from the City of Plenty, Gallo had no doubts about Sir Donald's wealth, but he did not expect him to be so bold as to spend a lot of money on such a thing.
"I'm so envious..."
He couldn't help but sigh in a low voice, not knowing whether he was envious of Sizz's wealth, or the guy who made the bracelet.
But the fat sheep is Sir Donald, so he is embarrassed to go to other people's wool, after all, he has a good relationship with others, and he has been somewhat promoted by others, and he is embarrassed to make other people's money.
What's more, Jazz probably didn't have a need for this, otherwise he would have contacted himself a long time ago, instead of introducing Lady Carola to the door.
This fat sheep is not easy to start, and Gallo pays attention to the next fat sheep.
Next up for auction is a brooch-shaped piece of magical equipment that triggers a magical barrier against enemy attacks when the wearer is attacked.
Protective magic equipment like this was originally very common, and basically every mage with a little bit of conditions would be equipped with it, which was quite a big thing.
However, this kind of equipment can often only be used by the mages themselves, and has a high maintenance cost and use threshold, so it is often disposable and not suitable for ordinary people.
But the difference between this brooch is that it can be used by ordinary people, and the unfolded barrier has a high strength to resist the attacks of master powerhouses, and it is not a one-time use, it can be recharged and recycled.
You don't even need to find a professional to recharge, the customer can do it on their own, they just need to go to the alchemy workshop and buy enough magic power stones.
These characteristics have suddenly opened a qualitative gap between it and other similar products, and it has become the object of competition among the rich people present.
In the end, the brooch was bought by a rich woman at an exaggerated price of 70,000 gold.
The rich woman also happened to be known to Gallo, Lady Carola.
Gotcha, the fat sheep that has been scavenged will definitely not be able to be scavenged again...
And Gallo felt sorry for Lady Carola.
In fact, she doesn't need to spend this unjust money at all, she only needs to come to the church every three days to find herself, and she can bless her with a few layers of magic skills, which is definitely more reliable than this kind of thing.
What's more, she also has a team of guards from the Supreme True God Cult by her side, and she has her own enchantment at home, so there is no need to buy this thing at all.
How insecure is that?
Gallo remembered a little more, remembering that Madame had mentioned that she had a son under her knees who was married and had children...
However, her son had little interest in inheriting billions of family assets, and instead ran away to become an archaeologist and moved to the City of Innocence before her.
Therefore, Lady Carola's entry into the City of Innocence this time, in addition to expanding business and protecting her own safety, also has the idea of family reunion.
From this point of view, most of the chain was bought for her son.
"Alas, there are mother's children like Genbao..."
Gallo sighed with a little envy.
The next exhibits on stage are really a bit amazing...
It was a magic ring that had the effect of activating a spatial teleportation to teleport the wearer back to a predetermined safe spot when the wearer was mortally attacked.
Even Gallo can't help but admit that this ring is really awesome!
This can be said to be the strongest and most stable means of saving life.
He was even a little envious of such an effect, if he had this on himself, he could act much bolder.
Because spatial teleportation is an effect that cannot be achieved by divine magic, it is the patent of high-level mages.
Only an eighth-order legendary-level mage has the opportunity to learn spatial teleportation, and if you want to apply this top-notch magic skill to equipment and make it available to ordinary people, you must be a more advanced mage to do it.
However, the brochure does not specifically explain the origin and provenance of the ring, but it was sold as a gimmick, and it will not be announced until the auction.
Sure enough, the host on stage revealed the origin of this ring:
It's actually the leader of the Invoker School, a demigod mage, and a handmade by Cal the Invoker!
After a moment of silence, the guests in the audience burst into a series of cheers, startling Gallo.
And the next auction is even more staggering.
The starting price of this ring is 50,000 gold, but the first time the price was called, it was directly topped with 100,000 yuan, which doubled.
And the follow-up price increase is directly in 10,000 units...
Gallo was stunned, he didn't expect these people to be so rich and crazy.
Are demigods that great?
With his experience and position, it's really hard to understand people's madness.
Although the people here are all wealthy and well-known, the upper class of the social elite can still maintain some dignity in front of the legendary-level powerhouses, but for the demigod-level powerhouses, they are actually no different from all living beings, they are all ants that can be erased at will with a wave of their hands.
This is the absolute disparity that comes with the person.
And the demigods in this world are absolutely rare species, it's good to hear a name usually, and it's a blessing to be able to see each other, if you can say two words, it's simply a glorious ancestor!
So after hearing that Gallo needed money, Ma De did not hesitate to offer 100,000 gold, and was full of guilt, feeling that it was too little, sorry for the identity and status of Gallo's demigod-level powerhouse...
What's more, this demigod is not an ordinary demigod, but the strongest demigod in this world, Cal the Supplicant, who has been rumored and touted in the market.
No one knows how old he is or what he has experienced, only that he has a longer history than the empire, and the empire was established because of his help and influence.
Many people believe that his strength is comparable to that of angels, and he is probably the strongest on this earth.
So when this ring, which is so powerful, and functional, came along, people went crazy.
The atmosphere was already getting hot, and the rich men like Sir Donald and Lady Carola were vying to make their deals, and the price soon exceeded the 200,000 mark and approached 300,000.
Even Gallo, who was watching from the sidelines, had a dry mouth for a while, and his eyes were even hotter.
"I really want to be a demigod..."
He muttered under his breath.
In the end, the ring was bought by a mysterious guest who was sitting in a box like Gallo at a sky-high price of 330,000 gold coins.
Gallo couldn't help but glance at the box curiously, wondering if he could get some wool.
But when he looked over, he felt a thick wave of power coming from there.
He hurriedly and secretly activated the Insight Divine Technique and looked into the inside of the box.
There are only three people in it, and they don't have the breath of cultists, and they have a clean background.
Judging by the color emanating from their bodies, it was a teenager and two middle-aged people.
The two middle-aged men exuded the aura of a legendary-level powerhouse, and they were already very powerful masters, but their movements and postures were like two bodyguards, protecting the teenager on the left and on the right.
Use a legendary powerhouse as a bodyguard?
And can you bring a legendary-level powerhouse into the city, or even come to this kind of public gathering?
This is the son of the lord of the city, right?
Gallo inferred in his mind.
After the young man took a picture of the ring, he said a few words to the two legendary bodyguards beside him, and then left with one of them, leaving only one to deal with the rest of the wrap-up.
He didn't even wait for the ring to get his hands on it, and he didn't seem to take the huge sum of more than 300,000 seriously at all...
I'm afraid this is not a fat sheep, it's a fat pig...
Gallo really wants to make friends with him, everyone is the same age, so they should be able to talk very well, right?
It's a pity that the young man walked in a hurry, leaving no one a chance to cling.
Gallo didn't really lick his face and chase after him, and to be honest, he didn't really know how to interact with this kind of person at all.
In his eyes, this thing is a treasure chest that can walk...
How do humans communicate with treasure chests?
And the auction outside has come to an end after the final big **.
At this point, all the things on the brochure have been sold out.
But the host on the stage did not announce the adjournment of the meeting, but asked people to carry up a display case covered with a red cloth.
"I'm honored to inform you that there is one more item that your lord has commissioned for auction..."
The guests, who were already in high spirits, immediately cheered again.
The host unraveled the red cloth from the cabinet, revealing a crown of power underneath in a glass partition.
It looks like it was worn by a clergyman in a high position.
But the appearance is not exquisite, and even very old, quite a taste of historical relics.
"This is the private collection of the Invoker, and he suddenly commissioned us to auction it the day before yesterday, so he didn't have time to write it into the brochure, so he put it at the end, and it was a surprise to present to everyone."
The host explained briefly, and then smiled, which signaled that everyone could bid.
"The starting price is also 50,000 gold, and the lowest asking price is 10,000 gold, so everyone can start."
The guests in the audience were stunned and couldn't help asking:
"What about the specific features? Where did it come from? Is this a relic? Or what kind of magic item? ”
"Since it's a treasure of the Supplicant, there must be an explanation, right?"
"That's right, what are you selling at this time?"
In the face of everyone's doubts, the host spread his hands innocently and said:
"I'm sorry, but I'd love to tell you what it is, if I knew..."
"Actually, the Supplicant didn't tell us where it came from..."
