Chapter Seventy-Three: Hunters? Prey! above

The eyes of everyone in the hall moved with Master Stendon.

For this prestigious wizard master, everyone present is definitely no stranger, especially some of the magic props made by the other party, but they are all regarded as the target of snapping - whether it is reselling or as the last straw to save their lives; When Stendon, the master wizard stood still, the applause that rang out from the hall was enough to prove everyone's recognition of the master wizard.

"Although the magic props I make often appear on such a stage, this is my first time! Thanks to everyone's welcome, I don't get nervous! The old wizard's opening remarks, with his characteristic sense of humor, made the applause that had just stopped ringing again.

"Come on, let me take a look at the auction items with everyone!"

The old wizard uncovered the black velvet, revealing what was hidden underneath - a test tube filled with a thick purple liquid.

This is?

Everyone present couldn't help but be stunned, looking at the test tube, revealing a puzzled look.

"Mind Flayer's brain?!"

The faint demon hunter blurted out an exclamation, although his voice was not high, but it attracted the attention of everyone present; And under such a gaze, the weak demon hunter who reacted couldn't help but bow his head slightly embarrassed.

"What a learned young man!"

The old wizard's praise eased the shyness of the weak demon hunter, and at the same time attracted everyone's attention again, they were all waiting for the wizard master in front of them to give them an explanation—obviously, although the brain of the Mind Flayer was precious, it was definitely not comparable to a holy weapon. Even if it is the lowest Starlight-level holy weapon among them.

Really. Has enough prestige to convince the public!

Look at the people around you. With a puzzled look, but patiently waiting, Ye Qi couldn't help but think - Ye Qi was sure that if it was the apostolic leader of the Nosd family standing on it at this time, the surrounding crowd would have already let out a burst of boos.

Of course, Ye Qi would not simply think that just prestige could achieve such an effect; Undoubtedly, the old wizard's praised alchemy is also one of the important reasons. Even the main reason - all people will respect those who are quite prestigious, and people will respect the prestige that comes from a particular skill; The people of the Dark World are no exception, and even more realistic.

Because, it is very likely that their fate is at stake.

And in the face of the existence related to their own fate, no matter how impatient people are, they will become calm!

"Looks like everyone is full of doubts! So, let me explain it to you! With a wise smile from the wizard, the old wizard picked up the test tube containing the Mind Flayer's brain. "There is no doubt that the brain of the Mind Flayer is very precious, and the last time a holy artifact appeared in the bidding on the inner market was five years ago. And the brain of the Mind Flayer hasn't appeared in the inner market for twenty years, right? ”

In response to the old wizard's question, everyone who often attends the Wizard Secret City nodded in affirmation, and looked at the old wizard with expectant eyes - obviously, according to what they knew, the wizard master in front of him would not be unreasonable, and there must be a reason for him.

And in the crowd, some quick-witted people have already discovered something hidden from the words of the old wizard; However, they did not say anything, but waited quietly for the old wizard to give an answer; However, the eyes that looked at the old wizard's hand became different, and a few of them were so anxious that they even writhed their bodies, as if there were nails under their buttocks, and seeing such a scene, the old wizard couldn't help but joke: "Don't worry, it's in my hand, it won't fly!" At the very least, let me explain it to you, right? ”

This kind of joke made these anxious people shrink back in disdain; In the face of the old wizard's jokes, they didn't dare to fight back, even if they were dissatisfied, they had to hide it in their hearts, and they couldn't show any trace of it - and unlike these sneers, the people around them who hadn't reacted before also understood a little at this time, and subconsciously looked at the brains of the heart snatcher in the hands of the old wizard; After all, to be able to have the current identity and status, in addition to luck, your own strength is the key!

"Someone once said that the brain of the Mind Flayer can give people magical powers! And I now confirm to you that this is a fact, not a rumor or a legend! The old wizard said with a smile.

Hiss!

And just as the old wizard's voice fell, all the others present gasped, except for a few who had been prepared—they finally understood why the brains of the Mind Flayer would be placed behind the holy artifact; If it is really possible for another person to obtain such a miraculous amount of power, such an arrangement is obviously indisputable; After all, the holy weapon needs resonance to be able to exert its true strength, and looking at the old wizard's statement, it is obvious that the brain of the Mind Flayer is not used.

"Master Standon, how much?! I want it!! ”

A slightly chubby man jumped up from the sofa and spoke directly—and this was one of the few people who had been impatient before; A restrained, simple black and purple robe was put on this fat body, except for showing the bulging belly, there was no due bearing at all, but a little more philistine; Coupled with having such a figure, this is obviously not a dark mercenary.

"Why do you want it? The highest bidder wins, this is the rule of bidding! ”

Next to the fat man, a man who was not much thinner than him, but much shorter, spoke angrily; And following the words of this Humpty Dumpty, there were also a few people who refuted the fat man who spoke first - although there was no detailed introduction, but everyone present, as long as they carefully took a large number of them, they could find that these people had something in common, or a common profession: businessmen!

The lack of any strength and energy, the weak body, and the standard smile made everyone have an accurate guess; And for the urgency of these people, everyone also rose from the bottom of their hearts with a hint of abruptness - fate is in their own hands, this is a sentence that everyone knows. And all the people want to do it; But. There are very few successes. Sometimes it's not about having faith, it's about talent.

And this talent refers to the apostle, a talent that ordinary people simply cannot have!

As people who were able to come into contact with such talents, for the sake of businessmen during Kimpton's walk, they had a deeper sense of understanding of that sentence; After all, for dark mercenaries, black eats black is all too commonplace; Without the guarantee of force, the quickest to die were the merchants with considerable Kimpton and valuables—even those present who already possessed considerable prestige. I have also encountered similar dangerous situations in the past, and there will definitely be no less in the future; Therefore, in addition to the corresponding employment, these businessmen who deal with special groups of people will also try their best to arm themselves, and all kinds of magic props, as long as they are useful, will be bought by the other party and put on their bodies in case of emergency.

However, such a plan for emergencies can never be compared. Become such a 'talented' person yourself!

Such thoughts and wishes will only last longer with contact with those special groups. And the deeper it becomes - after all, people, always want to be different!

And now, with the opportunity, he naturally will not give up - therefore, even if he is squeezed by his peers, this fat businessman does not waver in the slightest, staring at the old wizard with blazing eyes; If it weren't for the fact that Zhilu Dao couldn't beat the other party at all, everyone wouldn't suspect that this person would rob him.

And after seeing that the run was useless, several people around them stopped doing such useless work, and their eyes were also on the old wizard, and they were as hot as their peers.

"It's useless to just take the Mind Flayer Brain Marrow, you need to configure the corresponding secret medicine to be useful! Although I won't, but I'm lucky enough for this recipe for an old friend of mine! And for this bidding, my old friend promised that whoever can get his hands on this Mind Snatcher Brain will be able to find the corresponding secret medicine! ”

"The low price is a high-standard magic crystal, and there is no limit to each price increase; Of course......"

Although the old wizard saw the atmosphere of the scene, he knew that these rehearsed lines did not need to be said; However, for the sake of completeness, he still said it according to the lines in his memory.

"Lord Finger, is that you?"

While the old wizard was still talking, the weak witcher stretched out his finger and pointed to the test tube containing the Mind Flayer brain that had been placed on the table by the old wizard again.

"Well, it's mine!"

Ye Qi nodded, and then, looking at the weak demon hunter with a puzzled expression, he said softly, "Yesterday's Master Weston gave me an offer at the dinner party!" An offer I couldn't refuse! ”

As he spoke, Ye Qi used the [Mage Hand] to control the teacup beside him, and moved slightly; Suddenly, the weak demon hunter's eyes widened, his gaze was full of incredulity, and he looked at Ye Qi dryly and couldn't speak.

"That's an offer I can't refuse! The Mind Flayer's brain marrow and eyeballs have magical powers, and Master Weston gave me such an ability in exchange for the complete Mind Flayer Brain Marrow and the remaining incomplete Mind Flayer Brain Marrow and Eyeballs! Ye Qi said - and this is also a decision after consulting with Jacob, after all, there were many people who asked Ye Qi about the Mind Snatcher Brain Marrow yesterday, and he refused them one by one; If it were put up for auction today without any warning, even ordinary people would be suspicious, let alone the real risk-taker.

And among all these reasons, what could be more convincing than that of another ordinary person attaining a 'special gift'?

At the very least, looking at the disbelief and sudden eyes of the weak demon hunter, you can understand that such a reason is convincing enough - of course, it is not only the weak demon hunter, but also the several people who have been cautiously observing Ye Qi since the appearance of the Mind Slayer Brain, and they are also extremely shocked; What do they see?

A teacup actually moved under the gaze of a person!

The movement of the mind is not unfamiliar to everyone, on the contrary, it is very familiar; After all, the Noshide family is famous for such a 'family talent', but this was an ordinary person yesterday, but today it is a bit incredible to have such a talent!

Some subtle chattering voices appeared in the hall, a moment later. A sudden sound sounded one after another; And the eyes of the merchants who had entered the bidding in advance before looked at the test tube containing the brain marrow of the Mind Snatcher. is even more eager to be able to melt it - and Ye Qi, who has all this in his eyes. but smiled in the bottom of his heart; His previous actions seemed to be hidden, but he would not hide it from some 'well-intentioned people', and this was naturally a deliberate arrangement.

What could be more convincing them than 'seeing is believing' and 'self-speculation'?

But I don't know which of these people is the 'eye' of that person?

Ye Qi silently observed, and the few people who were noticed by him silently guessed.

And this time. The old wizard's lines have finally been memorized-

"Thirty pieces!"

The fat merchant, who was the first to speak, shouted as soon as the old wizard's words fell.

"Forty pieces!"

Then the skinny merchant spoke.

"Fifty bucks!"

The same merchant made an offer.

……

In almost less than a minute, its price had reached a point that made everyone present feel shocked,—— a hundred high-standard magic crystals!

Even Ye Qi and the others, who had been prepared for a long time and were the masterminds of all this, couldn't help but find that their mouths were dry at this time - it wasn't until these merchants began to quote that they found out that the real worth of these merchants was so unexpected!

Before. The reason why a high price was not quoted was obviously not due to the prudence or financial difficulties of these merchants. It's that there is no suitable item; As soon as the right item appears; Then these people will naturally show wealth that is admirable to ordinary people.

Hopefully, that Master Lutz in Master Standon's mouth will be able to deal with these people!

Otherwise, I'm afraid it's another storm!

Of course, the real use of the Mind Flayer Brain Marrow was not provided by Ye Qi, but from within the wizard, from the mouth of the Master Stendon - just as Ye Qi had guessed before, that Master Weston's friend, Master Lutz, was studying experiments related to the Mind Flayer's brain marrow; In this regard, the people who learned this information, in addition to secretly lamenting the long history of wizards and preserving materials that ordinary people do not have, are how to use this information to find out the culprit who hindered this wizard secret city.

At Jacob's suggestion, everything seemed to be in order, and several of the participants, after thinking about it, voted in favor of it - after all, it was closely related to them, and they couldn't help but pay attention to it.

However, according to the private communication between Ye Qi and Jacob, although the Lutz master has begun to study the true use of the Mind Flayer Brain, the process is not smooth, in addition to the lack of corresponding experimental materials, more importantly, the incomplete literature, so that the Potions master has to use his own intelligence to fill the missing part - and this is obviously a very long process, but the enthusiasm of these merchants is obviously not able to wait that long!

Perhaps, I should help that Master Lutz?

Such a thought appeared in Ye Qi's heart, but the next moment he was suppressed by him - this time it was obviously a joint 'mission'; not only their demon hunters, but also the supreme government, the Holy See and the wizards, he took the liberty of 'coming up' the real use of the Mind Flayer Brain, not to mention what the best result would be, with the style of the Holy See alone, it would be absolutely impossible to make the situation 'exclusive for one family', and it would inevitably be 'shared'!

Although Ye Qi doesn't mind helping the wizard, he will definitely not go to the 'enemy', which is obviously against his principles!

Even if you want to help, use the most correct method!

What's more, with the potential of these parties, why should I stand out?

Since they will use such a method, they must have already dealt with it in the worst way!

Ye Qi, who thought of this, didn't pay attention to these; On the one hand, he paid attention to the few very noteworthy people, and on the other side, he continued to focus on the hall - the bidding at this moment was completely white-hot, and the only bidders were left with the fat merchant and the thin merchant.

"I'll use the manor outside Dude as collateral!"

The fat merchant said straightly.

"A manor outside Dude? Do you have one? I have it too! ”

The skinny businessman also does not back down.

"I also have a comptoir in Port Sasse!"

"The comptoir of Port Saas? I have it too! ”

"I ......"

……

The competition has been seen by all the people so far, and these two are definitely rivals on weekdays; Not only in business, but also in life - it's exactly what you have, I have to have it, you open a business house on the street corner, and I open a company opposite; And from the beginning of the bidding, it has been a complete vindictiveness now.

However, such a vindictive spirit and the exposed property made everyone present admire, the wealth of the two!

However, one or two of them were impressed, and at the same time, there was a hint of unknown meaning in their eyes.
