Section 9 Lady Ollie
Every adult Blue Mountain Dwarf is a qualified weaponsmith, and there are especially master-level weaponsmiths in this group. Although most of the Blue Mountain dwarves were killed in that battle a thousand years ago, a few still survived. They have been uprooted from their homes and, like many races, have survived on the continent. There are still many of them who have inherited the excellent craftsmanship of their ancestors, but the vast majority of the Blue Mountain dwarves are enslaved by the dragonmen, and there are very few Blue Mountain dwarves who have a free body.
This Thunderhammer is a rare item in Duran's eyes, even a notch better than the Assassin's Crossbow and Vampire Machetar in his hand. As a piece of magical equipment, the Hammer of Thunder is engraved with distinct Blood Black Runes and Thunder Runes. The person who wields this weapon can mobilize the power of lightning inside the weapon, and its weight can be adjusted as you like, making it light when you raise the hammer and heavy when you need a powerful attack.
The Hammer of Thunder is a rare treasure for warriors who like to strike weapons, but only a few people except dwarves enjoy using a hammer as their weapon. Duran knew that dragons especially disliked hammers, preferring swords as dashing weapons.
"I'm afraid the value of this Thunder Hammer will be greatly reduced, and if a strong dwarven warrior holds this weapon, I am afraid that it can exert unimaginable combat effectiveness." Duran shook his head with some regret. Those present were obviously not interested in the weapon, and only a few people tentatively quoted the price, and with the bloated size of these people, Duran could guess with his toes that they were not buying it for his own use, but as a collector's item, showing off in front of his friends.
Soon, this rare treasure was taken by a middle-aged merchant with a big belly for 75 purple dragon coins, which was only 15 purple dragon coins higher than the reserve price.
"A bunch of illiterate guys." Duran couldn't help but mutter.
And the fat woman beside him trembled involuntarily when she heard this.
Duran's left hand wrapped around the woman's waist, but the cold blade hidden in the sleeve pressed against the noblewoman's body through the thin clothing. To outsiders, the two looked very friendly and intimate, but in fact, if it weren't for Duran's extreme speed, I'm afraid this woman would have opened her mouth to shout.
"Don't worry, Mrs. Ollie, I'm not a barbarian." Duran said casually: "As long as you obediently listen to my arrangement, at least I can guarantee not to hurt you." ā
The lady nodded timidly, a terror flashing in her eyes. Just now, she recognized Duran's disguise, and before she could open her mouth to question, she was easily caught by Duran. And in the process, the people around her didn't react at all.
Ollie wanted to open her mouth to warn the person next to her, but the cold touch on her neck made her obediently shut her mouth.
Duran's eyes and extremely fast skills made her have no doubt that the other party's desire to kill her was just a blink of an eye, and for the sake of her life, she could only obey Duran's arrangement.
"Y-What do you want to do? Why dress up as Brown? Did you kill him? Ollie asked in a trembling whisper.
Duran smiled dumbly, and he shook his head, "I'm just interested in some of the things that are about to be exhibited." ā
The fat woman breathed a sigh of relief.
Duran also felt a little funny, but he didn't expect that the reason why he would be seen through the disguise by Mrs. Ollie was because this woman had secretly had a leg with Brown, but Brown liked the new and hated the old, and recently he was gradually tired of the widow's overly plump figure, and turned interested in the young and energetic immature girl, so the two had the previous quarrel with Akari. Although Brown hadn't been happy with Mrs. Ollie for a long time, after all, the two had been embarrassed for a while, and Mrs. Ollie couldn't be more familiar with Brown's figure. Duran stood beside her, nothing at first, but soon showed his feet.
In desperation, Duran could only make a lightning move to control her. After all, this Lady Ollie did not know any martial arts, and she was controlled by Duran without any resistance.
As the minutes ticked by, seven or eight nice items were each bought by the wealthy nobles or merchants in the hall, but Duran's gaze remained on the boxes of auction items behind the auctioneer.
"As a priceless treasure, the Deep Sea Crown, if it is not the finale, must be quite low in the order." Duran secretly thought to himself, the previous few items also had what Duran wanted very much, but it was a pity that he was shy in his pocket, and it was impossible to buy them normally.
Thinking of this, Duran couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart, but at this time, the fat woman next to him actually said flatteringly: "If you want something, maybe I can help." Please don't kill me. ā
Duran was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and asked a little playfully: "It seems that your financial resources are very strong, madam." ā
The fat woman twisted her body unnaturally, and cursed in her heart: if it weren't for the crook of the Count of Lyle, who swore that the manor would be absolutely safe, how could she have come to have fun without any of her men? She came to be happy tonight, she didn't even bring a protective prop that she usually used, and now she is controlled by others, and she can only hope that this guy will not kill her if she makes money.
Mrs. Ollie smiled a little ugly, "IāI still have some money. ā
Du Lan let out an "oh", and then his eyes lit up, as if he remembered something: "Wait, I heard that a few years ago, there was a dragon woman who married four wealthy and powerful dragon nobles in three years, and it is said that the last husband who lasted the longest was her last husband, and he died after about half a year." No one dared to marry the woman since, but she became the richest widow in the South...... And the last of the four unlucky guys seems to have the last name of Ollie, right? ā
The fat woman smiled reluctantly: "You're right. ā
"The richest widow in the South, my luck seems to be good." Duran was pleasantly surprised, if he could get the Deep Sea Crown without stealing or robbing it, it would be even better.
Seeing Duran's thoughtful look, Mrs. Ollie simply said very calmly, "Whatever you want, I can buy it back for you." I have only one request, I haven't lived enough, I haven't tasted enough men, and I'm not willing to die now. I have a lot of money and how much I need to buy my life, you can say it directly. ā
"Refreshing," Duran smiled lightly, "I'm afraid you have another layer of mind in your generosity, right?" Bidding openly, getting someone's attention, and then finding a way to get out of my side is a very clever strategy. ā
The noblewoman's face suddenly turned white, and she said in a panic, "You misunderstood what I meant. For me, money really doesn't matter. ā
Seeing the woman's frightened half-dead appearance, Duran could finally be sure that Lady Ollie had nothing else on her mind. So he thought for a moment, and finally nodded.
Mrs. Ollie let out a sigh of relief. Her heart was pounding, and she was afraid that the knife at her waist would suddenly split her in two.
"What do you want to buy?"
She took a deep breath to calm her mood and asked in a low voice.
Duran shrugged his shoulders, and at this time, the auctioneer said loudly, "The next exhibit, the Tinder Energy Pool Expansion Scroll!" ā
"This is a rare general-purpose Tinder Energy Pool Expansion Scroll, which can increase the energy pool of a Gold-level master by between ten and forty percent, depending on the user's talent. To be honest, I haven't seen such a powerful Energy Pool Expansion Scroll appear in recent years, and I don't need to say much about its value, and you all know it, and the reserve price we put on it is ......"
"100 Purple Dragon Coins." The auctioneer said with a smile.
Duran's eyes lit up, and he said decisively: "I want this." ā
Mrs. Ollie reacted quickly and immediately shouted, "200 Purple Dragon Coins!" ā
In the next second, everyone's eyes were focused on the two of them. (To be continued.) )
