Chapter 200: The Auction
On September 10, Chris, who had been sleeping for two months, finally woke up again.
After receiving the news of Chris's awakening, Meng Chen, Ellie and Alfred went to the hospital to visit Chris.
When he saw Meng Chen, Chris immediately stood up and saluted.
Meng Chen hurriedly pressed Chris back to the hospital bed and smiled, "No need to be polite!" You haven't recovered yet, so stay in the hospital for a few more days! ”
Chris bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Lord Lord!" ”
While Ellie and Alfred took turns greeting Chris, Meng Chen probed Chris's current attributes.
What Meng Chen didn't expect was Chris's level, which was inexplicably promoted to the 7th rank during his coma.

The time soon came to September 15th, which was the day when the auction was held in Dilong Valley.
Auctions are not new in southern Xinjiang, and Wumeng City holds auctions every few months.
However, there are magic-level lots at auction, which is rare in a hundred years in southern Xinjiang.
Therefore, a large number of warriors and merchants who knew the preciousness of magic weapons poured into the Dilong Valley Pass on the 15th of September.
Although the auction will begin at noon, it is not yet midnight, and the number of outsiders in the pass has already exceeded 1,500.
Among them, martial artists account for nearly thirty percent, and their cultivation is very good.
Through the detection map of the Eye of True Vision, Meng Chen found that among the martial artists in the pass, there were more than two hundred martial artists in the Quenching Realm, six martial artists in the Soul Building Realm, and even two Yuan Fetal Realm martial artists appeared.
In order to prevent the blind warriors from picking quarrels and provoking trouble, Meng Chen ordered Alfred and Chris to lead 1,000 4th-order soldiers and 200 5th-order soldiers to guard the entire mountain pass tightly.
Under the high-pressure control of the City of Hope, the martial artists in the pass were quite peaceful, even the two Yuan Fetal Realm martial artists were no exception.
Since there is a certain threshold for participating in the auction, many warriors and merchants bring their goods to the trading center to exchange them for Olympic dollars.
After inspecting the pass, Meng Chen secretly rejoiced in his heart: "With the stimulation of the auction, the trading volume of today's Dilong Valley Bazaar should increase by more than three times compared to the previous period. ”
Chirp~!
A melodious cry came from afar, and a giant red and blue bird appeared on the skyline.
Looking at the giant bird in the sky, Meng Chen muttered, "Thunder Crested Eagle? Could it be Siu Yat-che? ”
Now, the appearance of the quasi-demon beast Thunder Crested Eagle could not startle Meng Chen's heart in the slightest.
If this thundercrested eagle dares to come around, forty enchanted three-bow bed crossbows around it can shoot it into a kebab in minutes.
The Thunder Crown Eagle landed in the open space outside the pass, and two men and one woman walked down from its back, it was Xiao Yizhe, Lin Rufeng and Lin Qing'er.
With nothing to do, Meng Chen went to the gate of the parapet to welcome the arrival of Xiao Yizhe and others.
Xiao Yizhe is still that indifferent and dashing appearance.
Lin Rufeng's left cheek, for some reason, added a hideous scar, but his mental temperament is better than before.
Lin Qing'er faded away from the youth of the past, and became more and more energetic.
Seeing this, Meng Chen secretly said in his heart that it was a pity, "Alfred really doesn't know the goods!"
Then, Meng Chen arched his hand and smiled: "Senior Xiao, Senior Lin, Miss Qing'er, welcome to Dilong Valley!"
"Hmm!"
Xiao Yizhe has a very high temperament, and only bowed his head slightly to Meng Chen.
Lin Rufeng took Lin Qing'er and bowed to Meng Chen and said, "On behalf of all the villagers of Taoyuan Village, Lin is grateful to Lord Meng for his kindness. ”
"It seems that Senior Lin has done a great job?" Meng Chen asked in surprise.
Lin Rufeng nodded and smiled: "From now on, there will be no Manniu Village in the Barren Valley, only Taoyuan Village!"
After learning that Manniu Village was conquered by Lin Rufeng, Meng Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The world is impermanent! ”
After greeting for a while, Meng Chen introduced Xiao Yizhe and others into the pass.
As the time approached noon, a cavalry team appeared outside the barrier of the pass.
This cavalry team consisted of more than 30 people, from the three major sects of Wumeng City, among which there were many old acquaintances of Meng Chen, such as Mo Xuan, Li Qingming, Song Gang, etc., and even stones appeared in the cavalry.
Meng Chen personally stood in front of the gate of the parapet wall, and smiled at the group of Wumeng City: "Welcome to the Earth Dragon Valley!"
Mo Xuan and the others bowed their hands in return: "City Lord Meng greeted him personally, wouldn't it be a torment for us and others?" ”
As the strength of the City of Hope was revealed, Meng Chen's status in the hearts of Mo Xuan and the others had risen dramatically, and he was almost on par with the sect masters of the three major sects.
Introducing Mo Xuan and the others into the pass, just as Meng Chen was about to leave, the stone came to Meng Chen with a complicated face.
Meng Chen patted Shi Shi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Shi, how are you doing in the Blood Refining Sect, but someone is bullying you?" ”
Shi shook his head and said, "I'm very good in the Blood Refining Sect, and my master and brothers are very good to me. ”
"That's good! If you have any trouble, you can come to Dilong Valley to find me. ”
"Hmm!"
Shi nodded, and then whispered to Meng Chen with a little hesitation: "Black egg, this year's evil moon is coming, you have to be more careful!"
With that, the stone immediately walked away quickly.
Meng Chen looked stunned for a moment, and said secretly: "What does this mean by stone?" ”
Meng Chen, who had been thinking for a long time and had no clue, could only secretly remember the words of the stone.
As the pale blue sun gradually rises, the first auction of the Earth Dragon Valley is about to begin.
Bang~!Bang~!Bang~!
Suddenly, there was a dull drum beat outside the mountain pass.
"It's ...... The Southern Barbarian Tribe? ”
Meng Chen's heart was overwhelmed, and he immediately ordered Alfred and Chris to command the soldiers to prepare for battle.
At the same time, spellcasters such as Ellie and Cairns also climbed the four magic turrets one after another.
Meng Chen, who was standing on the lookout, looked out of the parapet and saw a cavalry team of the Southern Barbarian tribe in the distance.
Although the number of people in this cavalry team was not large, a young man in the center of the cavalry team made Meng Chen's face involuntarily solemn.
The young man was covered in strange patterns of color, and held a white bone banner with six bells hanging from it.
"He is the new beast soul priest of the Southern Barbarian tribe?" Meng Chen guessed in his heart.
When the cavalry of the Nanban tribe stopped a hundred meters outside the parapet wall, Meng Chen leaned out his upper body and said in a loud voice: "You wait for the Nanban tribe, why did you come to the Earth Dragon Valley?" ”
The new Beast Soul Priest replied in a slightly immature voice, "I'm waiting to come to the auction, isn't City Lord Meng welcome?" ”
After taking a deep look at the beast soul sacrifice, Meng Chen said in a deep voice: "If you follow the rules, Meng will naturally welcome you." If you dare to pick quarrels and provoke trouble, don't blame Meng for letting you wait and have no return!"
Seeing that Meng Chen treated the Nanban tribe so toughly, the warriors and merchants in the pass talked a lot.
Many warriors and businessmen exchanged words and said: "The Nanban tribe is not good at stubble, how can it be possible to let them follow the rules?" Later...... It's not going to fight, is it? ”
However, the answer of the beast soul sacrifice surprised the onlookers.
The Beast Soul Priest bowed slightly and said, "I'm not waiting to come this time, not to pick quarrels and provoke trouble, but just to participate in the auction." ”
"I hope so! Open the door! Meng Chen waved his hand and ordered the soldiers to slowly push the gate of the parapet open.
Accompanied by two beast soul messengers, the beast soul priest led the cavalry of the Nanban tribe to enter the mountain pass through the gate of the parapet wall.
The unexpected appearance of the cavalry of the Nanban tribe made the atmosphere in the pass delicate.
Meng Chen had to strengthen his vigilance again to deal with possible changes.
However, the Beast Soul Sacrifice did not show any provocation, as if they were really just here to participate in the auction.
When the pale blue sun rises to its highest point, the first Earth Dragon Valley auction officially begins.
The main venue of the Dilong Valley Auction is located in a fenced open space, covering an area of about 2,000 square meters, which can accommodate 1,000 people to participate in the auction.
At this time, there were more than 3,000 outsiders in the Dilong Valley Pass.
That is, more than two thousand outsiders, could not enter the auction venue.
To participate in this auction, you must have more than 100 Ao Yuan, or a cultivation of the Quenching Realm or above.
Under the watchful eye of hundreds of soldiers, the warriors and merchants who did not meet the requirements could only wander around the ordinary shops in the mountain pass pass.
As the auctioneer of this auction, Ellie wore a purple starlight Luo dress and walked gracefully to the high platform in front of the venue.
"Welcome to all the distinguished guests present to participate in this Earth Dragon Valley auction!"
After a polite greeting, Ellie motioned for the soldier to carry the first lot, "The first lot to come on the field is the first lot-Dragon Slaying Sword." This dragon slaying sword is four feet five inches long, with dark iron as the bone, magic iron as the tendon, and immersion gold as the blade, and is made by highly skilled craftsmen. And most importantly...... This battle dragon sword, engraved with sharp runes, is a veritable mage! ”
As soon as Ellie's words fell, many warriors and merchants present broke out in an uproar, "This ordinary big sword is a magic soldier?" How can it be? ”
Facing everyone's doubts, Ellie flicked her fingers and struck at the Dragon Slashing Sword.
Airplanes~!
With a slight buzzing sound, a circle of mysterious runes lit up on the surface of the Dragon Slaying Sword.
Then, Ellie said indifferently: "If you still don't believe it, you can go to the stage to test it yourself!" ”
The standard equipment of the City of Hope has been colored, because Meng Chen feels that the more powerful the weapon, the more low-key it is, otherwise what if it attracts the attention of the enemy in a high-profile manner and is set on fire?
This dragon slaying sword does the opposite, with a large number of mysterious runes painted on the surface, and the sound and light effects are extremely gorgeous when activated, and even laymen know that it is very awesome at a glance.
Many warriors came to the stage one after another, observing this dragon-slaying sword up close, and even Song Gang, the blacksmith master of the Panshi Gate, also climbed the high platform with curiosity on his face to take a closer look.
When Song Gang returned to his seat, Fang Yu immediately asked softly, "Elder Song, is that dragon slaying sword really a magic soldier?" ”
Song Gang nodded and said, "That sword is extremely sharp, barely reaching the level of a magic soldier!" However, the old man had never seen those strange runes, and the spiritual power in the sword body was also quite strange. ”
Fang Yu thought for a moment and said, "This may be due to the unique forging technique of the Otera people. ”
"Perhaps!"
Song Gang replied casually, and said secretly in his heart: "The blacksmith skills of the City of Hope are not weak, and they pose a big threat to the industry of Panshimen!" ”
After the verification of many warriors, this dragon slaying sword is indeed a magic soldier.
As a result, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became warm, and everyone began to wait to prepare for the auction.
Ellie took the opportunity to say: "The starting price of the first lot is ...... 400 Aoyuan, or 20 White Tribute Stones! ”
A fat businessman shouted, "I'll give 450 Austrian dollars!" ”
"500 Austrian dollars!"
"600 Austrian dollars!"
“……”
Meng Chen, who was standing behind the high platform and watching, saw the hot auction scene, and even showed his front teeth with a smile.
Although the name of this dragon slaying sword is domineering, it is only a castrated version of the 5th-order greatsword.
The real Rank 5 Great Sword not only has a primary sharp rune, but also a primary strong rune and a primary anti-magic rune, and at the same time, it is more solid than the Dragon Slaying Sword in terms of materials.
What dark iron is the bone, the magic iron is the tendon, and the gold is the blade, they are all just advertising words that Meng Chen taught to Ellie.
Of course, ordinary warriors and businessmen, even if they have money, can't buy magic soldiers, and Meng Chen is not a pit for them.
Eventually, the first dragon slaying sword was acquired by a merchant for 1,200 Austrian dollars.
This made many swordsmen lament: "The pearl is covered with dust! ”
The second lot is still a sword, and it is a mage-level rapier.
Swordsmen are more fond of rapiers than heavy swordsmen.
After a fierce competition, this thin sword was bagged by the Cangying Swordsman at the price of 100 white tribute stones.
With the sale of enchanted weapons, enchanted armor, and alchemical potions, the City of Hope harvested a total of 32,640 Ao Yuan and 2,148 White Tribute Stones.
As the pale blue sun sets, the auction soon comes to an end, with only the last three items left to be auctioned.
The first two of these three items are artifact embryos, and the remaining finale item is a finished artifact.
Ellie smiled, "I think you already know what the last three lots are. Due to the preciousness of these three lots, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, only three distinguished customers are allowed to come to the stage for verification! ”
For a while, everyone in the audience whispered, as if discussing who is qualified to take the stage.
"I'm coming!" Mo Xuan shouted and jumped into the air on the high platform.
As the head of the three major sects of Wumeng City, the elder of the Yuan Fetal Realm of the Fuyao Sword Sect, Mo Xuan's people on the stage had no objections.
"Count the book and sacrifice one!"
The new beast soul sacrifice flew up to the high platform in the air, and the warriors and merchants present did not dare to squeak.
The last place on the stage was generated among the three Yuan Fetal Realm Scattered Martial Artists.
Xiao Yizhe relied on his advanced cultivation to force back the other two Yuan Fetal Realm martial artists.
After the three validators were chosen, Ellie waved slightly.
The three beautiful residents of the City of Hope each carried a red tray on a high platform, in which were placed a square inkstone, a three-foot wooden sword, and a white jade cave flute.
After Mo Xuan and the three of them glanced at each other, they carefully looked at the three items on the tray.
A quarter of an hour later, the three of them nodded one after another and said, "There are no mistakes or omissions in the three lots!" ”
Coax~!
As soon as Mo Xuan's words fell, there was a roar in the audience.
Auction magic weapons, this is something that has never happened in southern Xinjiang in the past hundred years!
