Chapter 10: The Rage Auction House
Out of the Duke's Palace, Barr's heart that had been hanging instantly relaxed.
The purpose of this trip has been achieved, and the first task of the next step is to get the title and land. In the Orc Empire, even Duke DeWitt does not have the right to arbitrarily grant a commoner noble title, but there is one person in Rage City who can do it.
The matter of the title and the land Bar had already planned for it, and was not in a hurry at this time.
While it was still early, Barr planned to go to the auction house first. As the saying goes, take precautions, prepare the materials needed in the early stage of territory development, and you also need to buy some equipment and skill books. In this real world, one's own strength is the last guarantee of life.
The auction house is located in the business district in the southeast of the city, which is relatively far away, and Baal hired a beast cart. After paying the cost of 3 silver coins, the beast cart set off. This kind of beast cart is similar to the carriage of the previous life, except that it is the antlers who pull the cart.
The staghorn is a level 30 herbivore with a gentle temperament and good stamina, which can be domesticated as a mount or pull a cart, which is very common in this world.
Ten minutes later, the door of the auction house came into view. After getting out of the car, Barr sent the coachman away.
As the only auction house in Fury City, I have to say that the Fury Auction House can be regarded as extraordinary, much more atmospheric than the Duke's Palace. The whole body is made of Yuebai stone, which shines under the illumination of Yangguan, covering an area of at least more than 10,000 square meters. The auction house is located on the east and west streets, facing north and south. The gate, which is only a dozen meters high, is much taller than the three-story buildings on both sides.
Barr strode up the steps in front of the door.
Although it is not yet the time for the big auctions to begin, there are still many people coming in and out of the auction house. There are orcs, there are goblin merchants and dwarves, and even the trade merchants of the human kingdom.
There are two types of auctions, one is the traditional on-site bidding method, but this is usually only seen during large auctions. As the name suggests, the buyer sets a minimum transaction price and a fixed price, and the item will appear in the auction list, the auction time is 24 hours, and after the time is over, as long as the minimum transaction price is reached, the transaction can be sold.
With the destruction of the magical civilization in ancient times, many precious magical technologies have been drowned in the torrent of history. But in the auction house, you can still feel some of the glory of the ancient magic era. Some of the magic technologies used in it are more advanced than the technological civilizations on the earth.
Saw Barr enter the door.
A young cat-man maid hurriedly ran over and asked respectfully, "Hello sir, I'm Anna, the waiter of the Rage Auction House, do you need to bid?" Please come with me if you need it. ”
Although Barr was dressed a little shabby, he didn't quite look like a rich man. However, as a conscientious auction house employee, Anna still politely entertained the young minotaur in front of her. After all, many rich people have quirks these days, and a few days ago there was a young aristocrat of mankind running in naked, yes, it seems to be called performance art.
"Thanks, I need to buy something." Barr politely replied.
"Yes, sir, please come with me."
Following behind the cat-people girl, Barr casually looked around. The front hall was large, and even though there were quite a few people inside, it seemed a little empty. There were a few young tiger people on the left talking, pointing at the few humans on the right from time to time, and most orcs were very disgusted with humans. The human merchants on the right, like Barr, must have come to buy something.
The use of the teleportation array requires a lot of energy, and the teleportation fee is very expensive. And as the distance and the amount of matter transported increases, the energy consumption will increase exponentially. Teleportation arrays are rarely used for the transportation of large quantities, so cross-regional trade is quite lucrative, and a large number of merchants have been born, the most well-known of which is the Goblin Merchant.
Looking at Bardon's appearance, Anna said as she walked: "Sir, there are no big auctions held now, and there are still relatively few people here, and when the auction starts, there will be more people." When the time comes, many human nobles and big businessmen from the Eastern Continent will come over, and most of the valuable items will also appear in large auctions. ”
"I can't afford those things." Barr replied with a smile
"Yes, many of our orcs can't even eat, and we cat-people don't ...... either" Speaking of this, Anna's face leaked a somewhat gloomy look.
For Anna's mood, Baal can also understand a little, the overall strength of the cat people is not high, and they have no status in the orc empire. And the women of the cat people are generally outstanding, and the human slave hunting team often loots the villages of the cat people and grabs the women of the cat people, so the current situation of the cat people is quite difficult.
In his previous life, Baal had done several missions to free slaves, and he had some general understanding of the situation. But now he is just an insignificant little person, and I don't know where to start with this comforting word.
After a while, the two of them came to the door of an auction room.
"Sir, this is your auction room. If you need anything, you press the button on the right side of the table and someone will come and serve you, and if you don't have anything to do, I'll leave. Anna said, standing in the doorway
"Thank you." Barr replied.
Smiling and nodding, Anna turned and walked towards the way she came, and this was, a firm voice came from behind.
"Trust me, life will always get better."
Turning back and smiling politely, Anna continued to walk forward, not taking Baal's words to heart. However, today I really met an interesting minotaur.
Barr walked into the room and closed the door.
To be honest, the application of ancient magic technology makes the auction house in this world really feel a little bit of black technology. On the table in the middle of the room was a glassy pale blue crystal, a magic display. The magic screen stands on the desktop, with a length and width of one meter, and the information of all the auction items in the auction hall will be displayed on it, with touch-screen operation, high-end atmosphere and grade.
The interior of the auction hall is covered with a spatial displacement magic barrier, and the auctioned items will automatically appear in the hands of bidders after payment, and the application of space folding technology also makes the interior of the auction room much larger than it looks. Just like the doorway that Barr just walked into, when another person opens it again, the room will change into another room, and this entrance may connect thousands of folded spaces.
Pulling the chair back from the table, Barr sat down.
The list of items on the screen has been categorized, and the list of items is also automatically updated, densely packed with millions of items.
Baal looked at it intently, and the most expensive item in the auction house now was a training book for the Orc 5th Order Elite Class Gale Guardian, which could be used to obtain the training qualification for the Orc Clan's 5th Order Elite Class Gale Guardian.
The initial level of the 5th level of the class is 90, and the highest can be upgraded to level 99, and the elite class is born with an elite template, and the strength is very extraordinary, and the current auction price has reached more than 2 million gold coins. If it is a 6th level class, this price may have to go up more than ten times, and there is no market, the 6th level class is initially a level 100 secondary advanced class, even if it is just an ordinary class, the strength will be greatly improved.
Of course, Barr just looks, he can't afford it anyway, and he can't use these things now. Keeping his eyes fixed, Barr first set his eyes on the skill book.
The level increase in the early stage was very fast, and now Bal hasn't even learned a basic skill.
There are two ways to learn basic skills, one is to go to the professional guild and find a guild mentor, which can be learned as long as you spend a little money, with an initial level of LV1. The other is to learn through the skill book, it is possible to get the skill book by fighting monsters and digging treasures, and there is an advantage of using the skill book to learn skills, that is, the skills you learn after using them have a certain level of proficiency at the beginning. In general, most of them can get LV2 levels, and some lucky ones may start with LV3, LV4, and so on.
Barr is not short of money now, so he naturally buys books directly.
