Chapter 45: The Auction (1)

As time went on, the venue was filled with guests who came to the auction.

The magic lights around the venue weakened, and the booth in the center lit up with a soft warm light.

As soon as the burgundy curtain was lifted, a mature man in a black dress walked out accompanied by two beautiful auctioneers,

He's the head of this auction, and like the usual small auctions, he won't be on the show. But the Night Moon Chamber of Commerce brought a lot of precious and rare lots this time, and as the person in charge, he also needed to speak a few words on stage and preside over the entire auction at the same time.

This is not only to attach importance to the guests at the venue, but also to reflect the gold content of this auction.

"Everyone, welcome to the Night Moon Auction House, I'm the head of Ruskin." The middle-aged man, who looked ordinary but was full of aristocratic temperament, stood in the center of the booth, bowed to the crowd of customers, and then stretched his arms sideways, pointing between the two beauties, where there was a small cart covered with satin.

"Okay, without further ado, here's our first sale......"

The two beauties also pushed the cart to the center of the booth, and the quiet beauty pulled the silk and revealed a short diamond-encrusted knife on the sandalwood base.

"This is a magic short knife that the Night Moon Chamber of Commerce received from the northern people of the Wari Empire, and after being identified by the appraiser, this magic short knife is a kind of magic weapon used by the high-level of the demon clan, using the traditional forging process of Guhua, which can not only be used as a spiritual medium for casting spells, but also has the attribute of 'broken',"

Ruskin said as he held up the short knife in his white-gloved hand and showed it to the crowd.

Ruskin's 'break' attribute is an inherent magic that is engraved into the inside of a weapon when crafting it, and 'break' is the ability to break the target.

This weapon characteristic needs to be touched before it can take effect, and generally few people will really use it to fight, but this short knife is a demon weapon, or made by Gu Hua, so the value of the collection is still very high.

"Then start with a hundred gold coins and start quoting."

"One hundred gold coins!"

"One hundred and fifteen!"

“……”

The words of the introduction fell, and those who were interested in this short knife began to ask for money.

On the first floor of the auction hall is an empty hall, with several aisles between the neat soft seats, and if you have something to do, you can leave through the aisle.

But most of the people who sat here were wealthy merchants and landlords, and the real nobles stayed in the box on the second floor, where Reese sat in the central one.

At this time, the guide was introducing the lots to be presented in this auction with Reese, and a beautiful woman stood respectfully on the side, she was the service staff who made the quotation for the VIP; Of course, if guests are interested, she can also provide more attentive service.

It's not that the Chamber of Commerce asks for it, but they do it voluntarily.

Think about it, the people who come to the box are either rich or expensive, if they can be favored by a big person, it is to fly on the branches and become a phoenix, and become rich overnight. Even if you don't like it, there will be a large bounty, enough for these ordinary offerers to be free for a while.

"Lord Reese, this third thing to be auctioned is the Fountain of Life from the Elves, as long as..."

"Alright." Reese interrupted the guide's speech and waved his hand towards the box door, "I want to be alone for a while, you can get out first." ”

The guide was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted,

"Ah, oh, well, please summon me if you need anything, Lord Reese."

After speaking, the guide glanced at the brightly dressed beauty with ambiguous eyes, and respectfully exited the box.

Seeing the guide exit the box, the beautiful woman also walked to Reese's side, ready to do something he wanted to do for Reese,

"Why are you still here? Didn't I say that I want to be alone for a while? ”

The beautiful woman was about to sit down next to Reese, but the other party said such a thing, and waved her hand behind the box door again, which could not be more obvious.

The beauty looked at Reese awkwardly, and saw that the other party didn't seem to be joking, so she had to answer yes with a red face, and left the box with a strange look.

As soon as the box door was closed, Reese's calm expression suddenly stepped across, and he said angrily to the black cat:

"Hell, did you see the way that woman looked at me? It's just..."

"Why, do you still want to reproduce with that female human in front of me!"

The black cat interrupted Reese's words.

"How is that possible, but you... Alas, forget it, it's me who is unlucky," Reece shook his head helplessly, "Are you really Illya's black cat?" It's the first time I've seen a cat talk, and besides, where has she gone, I want to talk to her about the people of the Far North. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, it's all about you, if you dare not listen to me, I'll let your head hit the ground."

Luna curled her tail, and the black light stuck to Reese's neck again,

"Don't! There's something to say, there's something to say, and it's not good for you to kill me, Miss Illya won't allow you to do that. ”

Reese's tone was flattering, but Luna was unmoved, still looking at him coldly, "Humph! Then you can do things for me. ”

"You want me to help you, you have to tell me what to do, right?"

"Find someone! I'm looking for someone, and she's in this auction room, behind that curtain, to be exact. ”

"Behind the curtain?" Reese was surprised, "Isn't that where the auction item is placed?" Is the person you're looking for a slave who has been captured? ”

"You're the slave! How could Lily ...... How dare you talk to me! ”

Reese's casual remark makes Luna furious, and she curls her tail to slit Reese's neck with the black man.

"Slowly, slowly! I didn't! ”

Reece felt wronged, and if he spoke well, his life would be in danger. However, he looks aggrieved on the surface, but in his heart, he is obsessed with the words that Luna accidentally said.

"'Lily'? Who's that? Illya's real name?"

"Obviously, look at your eyes! And say no, you..."

"Wait! You look at the stage, is that person on the stage you are looking for?

Seeing that the black cat was furious and his life was on the line, Reece immediately pointed to the stage and changed the subject, and Luna also looked towards the booth.

At the moment, the auction was a blue-haired girl in a cage, wearing a white crop top dress with an iron ring around her neck, and she was tied to the cage by a strong rigid chain.

The girl was not very old, she looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, and she looked charming and cute, but her face showed a dead air, and her empty eyes were staring at the floor, and she seemed to be indifferent to everything that was happening around her.

"This lot is a remnant from Balktor, Miss Jasmine!"
