Chapter Twenty-Nine: Seeing Through
While we were chatting, the buyer who had just left returned with an expert and four professional guards who looked like they were not low-level.
The little guy who was still chatting with me stood up straight with a standard smile at the moment when the door was about to open, and stepped aside, as if nothing had happened just now. The old man, who should be an expert in forensics, glanced at the little brother in surprise, and walked over to me with a smile: "Hello, this gentleman, is that you want to sell that suspected epic-level broadsword?" Can I watch the auction before the auction? β
Naturally, I took out the ice blade again and placed it on the table in the center of the room. The appraiser saw the ice front, unaware of the low temperatures it brings. He raised his hands and gently stroked it back and forth, feeling its power with his magic.
"Whew," ten minutes later, the old man let out a long exhale, "Good, good thing, it is indeed an epic treasure, a divine weapon for ice melee professionals." This gentleman, I am Richard, the chief appraiser of the Royal Auction House of Platia. If you wish, I can buy or exchange this item privately with you for a large sum of money on behalf of the auction house; If you don't want to, we'll add it to the next auction three days later, at our annual auction at the Royal Auction House of Platia, you see? β
I didn't answer right away, but motioned with my eyes for him to turn away from the unrelated. The old man, Richard, was slightly surprised, but waved it anyway. At his signal, several guards glanced at each other, nodded and followed the purchaser out, while I, with a smile, stopped in front of the clerk: "Why, doesn't Your Highness want this epic sword?" βγ
He was stunned for a moment, then moved a stool and sat down in front of me with great interest, and continued to talk to me in the same tone as we had chatted before: "How do you see that?" I think I had some mistakes, but they should have been covered up. β
I smiled and shook my head, moved a stool like him, and sat down on the other side of the table with Ellie in my arms: "First of all, if someone is sweaty, the hair will be evenly distributed on both sides, but it will not be concentrated in the place where it can cover the god lines.
Secondly, your clothes do not look like they have been squeezed, but as if they have been rubbed, otherwise the buttons will not be loosened but will be broken;
Again, the first time the crowd gave way was the prestige of Her Royal Highness the Princess, but the second time the people gave way to me there was something wrong, even if it was because Her Royal Highness seemed to be very happy with my actions, but it was not enough to let those professionals and minor nobles make way for me, right?
Fourth, although you learn a lot from the receptionist to play with silver coins, they will always put the tip in their personal bag instead of directly stuffing it into their pocket.
Fifth, maybe you didn't pay attention yourself, but since you came in, when Mr. Richard scanned the room, he saw that you were visibly fluctuating, and then came to ask me about Bingfeng;
In the end, although you have expressed the love and admiration of ordinary people for Her Royal Highness Princess Sally, you have shown some kindness and seem to be familiar with her. All in all, if you think about where this is, who are familiar with Her Royal Highness the Princess, and who have the courage to ridicule her and are not afraid of retaliation, it is easy to come up with the answer, isn't it? The eldest son of His Majesty the Platia Empire, the first in line to the throne of the Platia Empire, and the current head of the Platia Royal Auction House, His Royal Highness Becolis Platia. I stood up, gave him a mage salute, and sat back down with Ellie in my arms.
"Wonderful!" He didn't show the slightest anger that his identity was revealed, but gave me a thumbs up: "I really didn't expect that I had already made so many mistakes in such a short period of time!" Sir, do you have any intention of serving our Plataean human empire and becoming one of the pillars of the empire? β
I glanced at Ellie in my arms and didn't speak, just shook my head gently.
Seeing this, Beclis was not annoyed by this, but said very exaggeratedly: "Oh, that's a pity! He began to play with the silver coin that had been swindled from me, as if he no longer cared about Ice Blade.
"Uh-huh," Richard, who had never had a sense of existence, knew that the next thing was his mission: "So, this..."
"Oh, that's rude, I haven't even given my name so far. My name is Noron Burton, and I'm a polymath and alchemist, and my fiancΓ©e, non-human, and my name is Alice Firu. If it's Your Highness, you've probably heard of my name. β
"Oh?" His Royal Highness the Prince, who hadn't played with silver coins for a few minutes, questioned: "It turns out that you are the polymath who suddenly appeared in the Angola Zerg underground empire, it seems that you suddenly appeared, no wonder you can recognize my outfit, in front of a polymato, I was really ugly just now." β
He put away the silver coins and stood up with his hands behind his back. Although he was still dressed in the clothes of the squire, he had an inexplicable majesty: "Then, I, Becolis Platia, the great prince of the Platia Empire, and the first heir of the empire, once again offer you, can you help me deal with some complicated and trivial matters and solve some questions as my staff?" β
But I still shook my head, Becolis narrowed his eyes, his hands propped on the table, and he was getting closer and closer to me: "Then your Excellency Erudito, do you know the fate of rejecting her first heir twice in a row in the highest capital of an empire?" β
I looked at him calmly: "If Your Highness, you can fulfill my request, then it is okay for me to agree to be your staff member for ten years. β
Beclis knew that the request of an erudite staff member would not be easy, but he sat back down and asked tentatively, "I wonder what your request is?" β
"For my people, the outer gods are here to develop believers!" Stroking Ellie's little head, I told him the answer unswervingly.
But it was as if a big fireball had been detonated in this room, and old Mr. Richard jumped up in astonishment, and his hands were still clenched, but the glass of water did not know where it had flown to. Becolis picked up the stool he had just fallen with him, patted Ash and sat down on it, returning to the way he had been when he had spoken to me as a receptionist.
"I'm sorry, I really underestimated your pursuit, but fortunately you rejected my invitation twice, otherwise if you really became my staff member for ten years, and then said your wishes, I really don't know what to do."
He smiled wryly: "This is the base camp of the human god system, come here to preach to other gods?" Didn't you come here on purpose to find fault? Although the three major empires of mankind sometimes cause fights because of doctrine, if there is an external force involved, it will definitely be unanimous with the outside world first. It's not easy to develop a believer, just you," he looked at Ellie again, "Well, or two people, how can they compare to the thousands of years of accumulation of human gods?" Besides, you're not a clergyman, so you don't need to develop believers..."
I activated the title LV3 Divine Favorite, and deliberately lifted the silver hair on my forehead, showing the exquisite and intricate divine pattern on my forehead in front of Richard and Becclis.
'Hiss x2' The two of them took in a breath of cool air at the same time, how precious and powerful the divine favored person of LV3 is, presumably Bekelis, who has an aunt as an example, knows best. What's more, the divine war has not yet been started, and the way in which the power of faith can be transformed into sub-divine power should not have been discovered by the demon Grand Duke Morse and the god of space, Yawen, that everyone's competition for believers is just fun. Besides, the gods of mankind have never been in harmony, and this is worth planning for.
Becolis sighed, looked at me, then at the ice blade still on the table, and finally nodded at Richard.
"Alright, my two staff gentlemen, let's talk in another place. We need a very detailed and careful plan to help Mr. Noron's deity develop believers..."
