Chapter 397: Exchange of Interests, Everyone Rejoices, Red Dragon Blood?
"100,000 golden langs!"
As if to exhale the turbidity in his chest, Mercaris took a sharp breath and finally quoted a new high price that silenced the audience, and jumped directly from Sherlock's "ninety thousand" to the integer mark of "one hundred thousand".
100,000 gold lang is already the birthday sacrifice of the two major tribes of "Black Stone" and "Chasing the Wind" to the maze town keeper, and it is also all the net worth accumulated by the samurai chief in front of the palace for many years. It seems that this twelfth-level totem fighter really takes a fancy to this "Armed Belt of Dakdos".
"Hmph, I think you're dizzy, 100,000 jinlang... I won't follow. ”
Finally intimidated by the other party's momentum, the Eye Demon gave up and continued to follow after sneering at him again.
"100,000 gold langs, so expensive, I don't want to. Mistress Mercaris, this 'semi-finished piece' is yours. Immediately, the dark elf Alice also expressed her willingness to "cut love".
"Well, 'Dakdos's Belt of Arms', a hundred thousand gold langs..."
Seeing that two of the three major forces had made it clear that they would not bid again, and that no one in the audience had the courage or greater financial resources to bid, the dwarven auctioneer immediately sweated profusely and prepared to announce the final ownership of the lot.
But at this moment, another voice suddenly sounded in the venue:
"120,000 gold langs. I'm sorry, Lord Mercaris, but I'm interested in this thing. If you are willing to do it, I can compensate in other ways, and I don't think I will be inferior to this belt. ”
Like a thunderclap, when Moriarty's words echoed over the auction site, the entire venue immediately fell into a kind of absolute vacuum-like silence.
Startled!?
Curious!?
Unbelievable!?
There are really people who dare to jump out and grab things with the samurai chief in front of the palace. And as soon as the price was opened, the gap reached 120,000 golden langs, which was equivalent to sealing the thoughts of all pretenders, including the Minotaurs. But what is even more excessive is that the other party even "unashamedly" claimed that it could make additional compensation to the Minotaur, which is really arrogant to the extreme.
"It's you!"
However, for this unexpected beard robber, Mercaris did not immediately become angry, but roared in disbelief, as if he had seen an "old man".
"Yes, I'm glad you remember me, my lord."
Moriarty smiled slightly, it seemed that he had really impressed the other party that day.
And hear the other person's answer. Instead, the minotaur fell silent again. I don't know what I'm thinking.
"You said you wanted to compensate me? How? ”
After about half a minute of silence, Mercaris spoke again, but the audience was shocked.
What's going on!? Lord Mercaris, the former samurai chief of the palace, who is known for his arrogance and stubbornness, retreated so "eloquently" even before the other party really showed up!? This is something else. Or is it that mystery buyer with an amazing background or super strength. It can even make the minotaur jealous!?
Time. Countless pairs of eyes turned to the box where Moriarty was, as if to see through the door panel what kind of person was sitting inside.
"A '+3 Physical Defense Attribute' plus a Level 2 'Stone Armor' bid for 100,000 gold langs. Scold. How about changing it to a '+2 Physical Defense Attribute' plus a Level 1 'Healing Technique', as long as the price is 60,000 gold langs, and the item itself is in the form of a talisman? ”
For Mercaris's "goodwill", Moriatilo thought about it and said directly.
"What!"
Hearing such an answer, not to mention the Minotaur's reaction, the auction hall exploded again.
At first glance, the mystery buyer's so-called compensation seems to be a notch lower than the "armed belt of Dakodos". Not only has the physical defense attribute been reduced by one level, but the second-level "Stone Armor Technique" has also become the first-level "Healing Technique", which seems insincere.
But the problem is that once such a gap is combined with the difference of 40,000 gold lang cheaper, it becomes attractive again, after all, it is a huge discount of up to 60 percent. Moreover, the first-level "healing technique" is not as good as the second-level "stone armor technique"? This is not necessarily true, because in a sense, "healing" is the real "life-saving" skill.
As for the "amulet system" that the mystery buyer specifically mentioned at the end, it was also a huge selling point, as it was promised that the compensation to the minotaur would be an enchanted jewelry. Usually, the price of enchanted items with the same attributes, jewelry is at least 30% higher than the price of other types of items. In this way, it is another big bargain.
However, all of the above is only considered from the perspective of ordinary businessmen.
What moved the strong people present was an enchanted jewelry of such quality, and the mysterious buyer was easy to throw out without exertion, even more difficult than tipping in a tavern, and the price was so "low".
In this way, the identity of the other party is ready to come out: the master of enchantment, only the master of enchantment can have such a background and skill, and spend a lot of money on this!
"Are you serious!?"
Obviously, Merkalis is not the kind of hairy calf with a tendon, and it was immediately clear that Moriarty's offer was definitely full of sincerity and giving himself enough face. It can not only save money, but also get a big benefit, and also sell the enchantment master a favor, so kill three birds with one stone, if the minotaur does not agree, he is really stupid.
"Of course." Hearing that the other party had already moved, Moriarty immediately struck while the iron was hot: "In this way, Lord Mercaris, you can directly pay 60,000 gold lang to the auction, and then come to my box to get the goods." As for the other 60,000 gold langs, please send someone to pick it up from us. ”
"Good!"
Hearing the Dark Elves' refreshment, the Minotaur came out of his box directly, and after paying 60,000 gold francs to the auction staff, he immediately walked into the Moriarty box. And in just three minutes, it reappeared in front of everyone, but its face was full of joy, obviously the enchanted amulet was in its hands.
Immediately afterwards, the dwarven auctioneer also personally led people into the Moriarty box with the "Armed Belt of Dakdos", quickly accepted the final payment, and then presented the goods, and then respectfully withdrew.
In this way, after an exciting series of bidding and the subsequent exchange of interests, the auction of the first finale finally came to an end. However, compared to the staggeringly high price of the transaction itself, the mystery buyer was more able to attract the attention of everyone present. It's a pity that the other party has always refused to show up, which makes most people have to speculate.
"Good! Thank you very much for your enthusiastic bidding, and the first lot was sold at a high price of 120,000 gold langs! After making such a big deal in his own hands, the dwarf auctioneer was also very excited and red-faced: "Then, then, it's time for the second item to be auctioned." So what could it be? ”
With that, the dwarf took the second envelope from the waiter on the sidelines, tore it open, and took out the letter: "The second lot... Second..."
However, when the underground dwarves set their sights on the list of items, they were stunned for a moment. His eyes widened, his mouth widened, and his breathing stopped completely, as if he had seen Moradin waving at him.
"What's going on?"
"Is there something wrong with the second thing?"
"It's not like you've seen something better than the armed belt just now, right?"
Seeing such a strange look from the auctioneer, everyone in the audience immediately started to discuss.
"The second piece... The second lot is..."Finally, the dwarf was awakened again by the commotion in the auction room, and he stammered, "Yes... It's a bottle of 'Red Dragon's Blood'! ”
"What!?"
In an instant, it was as if a torrent was stirring up in the auction room, immediately drowning everyone in it.
"Impossible! That's impossible! ”
Even if Moriarty just spent a lot of money to mark the "armed belt of Dakdos", Fanny didn't glare at this dark elf who didn't treat Jin Lang as money a few times but didn't open her mouth, and now when she heard the "red dragon blood", her whole body jumped up, and her expression was almost like a yellow-faced woman who accidentally caught Xiao San and raped her in bed.
"Where did you get the blood of the Red Dragon!? Don't tell me, someone here has just come back from slaying a dragon. ”
At the same time, Sherlock's mental shock once again resounded sharply in the room, and his tone was full of questions and disbelief.
"Lord Sherlock, we really don't know about this, this is also an anonymous seller who just delivered it to the venue." In the face of cross-examination, the dwarven auctioneer also did not know anything.
"Looks a little weird."
Inside the box, Moriarty's brows furrowed, his eyes full of doubt.
From ancient times to the present day, dragons have been at the top of the undisputed food chain on the land of Anta Gregory. Even in the most prosperous period of the Ancient Elven Empire 10,000 years ago, no Elven Empress would be arrogant enough to conquer the Dragon Clan.
There is no other reason, for the extreme powerhouse of other races, it is just a simple demarcation between the adult and the adult of the dragon race. In other words, any full-grown dragon has the strength of the Extreme Dao.
On the other hand, no matter which branch of the dragon race, they all have a long life that far exceeds that of ordinary species. And the longer the years pass and the longer the lifespan, the dragon's strength will naturally increase. So much so that although some old dragons have long since weakened, they still have terrifying strength comparable to the heroes of the past. Of course, among all the dragons, the sacred dragon "San Michelangelo" is undoubtedly the most prestigious and the longest-lived. Legend has it that the dragon had afternoon tea with the last Elven Empress and made a promise to protect the Elves from extinction on the land of Antagrich.
Therefore, if it weren't for the fact that the overall number of dragons has always remained extremely low, and different dragon veins are still accustomed to fighting each other, otherwise this continent and even this plane would have become the "dragon plane" long ago.
And with such a strong racial background, the dragon is a ruthless character who walks sideways, whether on the surface or in the underground world. Don't say that someone slays a dragon for blood, it's a great blessing not to be slaughtered by a dragon.
But now at the auction, there is an anonymous seller who takes out a bottle of red dragon blood to participate in the auction, how can it not be extremely surprising. (To be continued......)
