Chapter 127: Pure Glass

"A shell from an unknown species in the Sea of Death, containing a pure and immaculate white pearl, and the price of ten golden dragons starts at a price of no less than one silver dragon at a time."

As the auction continued to heat up, Marianne's ears straightened when she heard the words Sea of Death.

The Sea of Death is located in the southern part of the Lionheart, with abundant fish resources in the shallow sea area and sea monsters in the deep sea area.

In those days, the sailing ships did not have strong deep-sea combat power, and the only means of combat was the pirate set, approaching the sailing ship and locking up the enemy's ship with a hook, and then landing on the deck to fight.

But it's not the same when you touch a sea monster, the sea monster is infinitely powerful, has a huge body, and has many large tentacles in the form of round suckers.

Once enraged, the Kraken will climb aboard the sailboat, tear the sails with several large tentacles, and capture some orcs and drag them into the sea to drown.

The swords in the hands of the orcs slashed into the hard skin of the sea monster, and although it could cut a bloody mark, it was not deep enough to cut through the thick layer of skin and flesh of the sea monster.

Orcs who dare to be so reckless, there are very few survivors.

When the Kraken gets angry, it will dive into the sea and try to capsize the sailboat, at which point all the Orcs will become the Kraken's meal.

When the other party has eaten enough, only a few orcs can escape the catastrophe of being eaten, and strive to swim to the nearby small wild island, where they become savages, waiting for the rescue of the next adventurer fleet.

So once an item on the auction table comes from the Sea of Death, its value increases exponentially.

This kind of thing is very rare, buy one less piece, it can't be a bad street goods, adventurers who dare to brave the sea of death are warriors, will be received and rewarded by the king, and may be promoted from commoners to nobles.

Marianne stared at the pearl, pure white, free of impurities, and the sun above her head spilled into the open-air auction, shining brightly on the pearl.

There is also the shell of an unknown species, with bright orange stripes, and the flesh inside is white and tender, which makes you appetize at first sight.

"One hundred golden dragons!"

"One hundred and fifty!"

The golden dragon was as worthless as a copper coin in the mouths of the nobles, and it rose wildly.

After the price broke through two hundred gold dragons, the price increase became less pronounced, and the final price was set at two hundred and forty gold dragon two silver coins.

"This stuff is more expensive than my cement." Marianne complained in her heart that the nobles of the royal city were really stupid and had a lot of money.

When the shell was removed, a few orcs in the audience carried five delicate long boxes and placed them on the table, each covered with a piece of red cloth, waiting for someone else to lift it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the next thing is the temporary auction item, to be honest, I was reluctant to take over the temporary queue item, but after seeing the finished product, I was intrigued, because it is ten times more beautiful than my glass."

The lion man in a silk robe stood on the auction table, his beard growing to his chest, and he looked serious.

"Old man, don't blow it, how can there be a wine glass more beautiful than that colorful glass in your house."

"Of course there is, for example, the auction item I am in charge of now has this qualification."

As an old auctioneer in the auction house, the old auctioneer has seen countless auction items, including translucent crystals with rare colors, pearls with strange textures, and insects trapped in yellow transparent balls, but he has never seen a glass that is so transparent.

It is also an item used to hold wine, with a novel shape and a unique style, which makes people feel the urge to use it to hold a glass of wine.

"Don't talk nonsense, open it and take a look!" There are already aristocrats who can't wait, and the old auctioneer so highly regards it, it should be a good thing.

The auctioneer lifted the tablecloth to reveal a long wooden box with a beautiful wood texture and an iron lock that could be opened with a flick of the hand.

The auctioneer opened one of the long wooden boxes, and there was a click, and a dozen or so transparent glasses lying inside the red cloth were exposed to the sunlight and shimmered.

"It's ......"

The leonin orc's eyes widened to see twenty wine glasses lying in a silk cushion in a wooden box, each of a different height and size.

Some of them have long slender feet, a small barrel cup belly with a wide bottom and a narrow mouth.

Some are shrunken goblets with extremely small barrel bellies, which are particularly narrow, and some are transparent glasses with flat bottoms and no feet.

Twenty glasses are placed on a soft red cloth as a set of drinking utensils, which is noble, luxurious, and particularly exquisite.

Seeing the novel and transparent glasses in the wooden box, the eyes of all the nobles were straight, and their lazy bodies tensed their muscles and stared directly at the glasses.

"This glass is so pure, it doesn't seem to have any variegation, old man, you can show it to me." The earl's son's lion's tail was taut, and he was already drawn to the glass on the table.

"No, if you want to appraise, please come to the stage and see it yourself, this is the rule of the royal auction house." The old auctioneer shook his head, the other party was a relative of the Earl's Court, but he still didn't give face.

"Bring it up and show me."

The voice of the young lion man sounded in the private room on the second floor, and the old auctioneer immediately bent down and smiled, "Yes, second prince." ”

The second floor is usually a private room for members of the royal family, and the children of the royal family naturally do not have the right to ask someone to take it up for inspection, but when the prince of Lionheart sits there, the situation is different, and he has to take it.

Marianne heard the words of the second prince and secretly hired the orc's voice.

Very young, probably around twenty years old.

Offstage, many aristocrats watched with wide eyes as the box of wine glass sets was sent to the private room on the second floor, and they were very envious.

"Ahem, dear noble ladies, noble gentlemen, there are also four boxes of transparent goblets here, if you are interested, you can come up and admire." The auctioneer opened the remaining four boxes, which also contained twenty glasses of different heights and unique shapes.

"These wine glasses are all sets, you can't buy a single one, you can only buy a whole box if you want to buy, due to the scarcity of quantity, each family can only buy one set, please forgive me."

After the old auctioneer finished explaining, the eyes of the aristocratic ladies in the audience were moved, and they all rubbed their mouths in their father's ear, wanting the glass on the stage.

Regardless of the image, every heart-warming nobleman impatiently walked up to the stage and looked at every glass.

When he learned that he couldn't touch it, the little nobles who felt that they didn't have enough power regretfully withdrew their hands, and could only watch the big nobles talk and laugh on the stage with resentful eyes, and secretly touched the texture of the glass by the way.

A few minutes later, the glass in the second prince's private room was returned to the auction table.

When everything is ready, the auctioneer picks up a wooden hammer and taps it on the tabletop.

"The first set of transparent glass wine glasses, the price starts at a hundred golden dragons, and the price increases by no less than one golden dragon each time."

With a snap, the voice of the second prince sounded in the private room on the second floor.

"Two Thousand Golden Dragons!"
