Chapter Seventy-Two: Setting Up a Bureau
The holy weapon is no stranger to those of you here!
Whether it is the miraculous power or the immortal fact, all of you who have heard of or seen, or even possessed a holy weapon, are fascinated by it—the emergence of a family must require an item that is enough to bear the inheritance of the family, and what could be more suitable than an immortal thing?
Such words are not unfamiliar to the people here, and even very familiar, after all, this is one of their few pursuits - perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, these people are not famous, but in the dark world, they are quite famous, and even belong to one side of the power; They have a shrewd mind or extraordinary strength, and the wealth that comes with it is commensurate!
However, this is them, not their descendants!
Except for a very few people, the status and wealth they possess naturally hope to be inherited by their descendants, and this inheritance naturally hopes to last for countless generations—and the holy artifact is such a seed of hope!
Maybe their continued family will wither due to various accidents, but the existence of the holy artifact is like an insurance, once someone can resonate with the holy artifact, then it represents another rise; Therefore, for any family or person who is expected to form a family, the holy weapon is indispensable.
Therefore, the atmosphere in the whole hall is a change-
Although there was competition before, everyone was basically talking and laughing, and there was a kind of casualness to win, and they didn't care about gains and losses at all; But. At this time. But it smelled of gunpowder. Even the people who were sitting next to each other and were still talking friendly were a little more wary in their eyes at this time, and the smiles became smiling.
Of course, such a change can't be hidden from Regus, who took all this into his eyes, and smiled secretly in his heart; After all, it was exactly what his uncle had arranged, and everything was as successful as his uncle had expected - as for why he had to advance the original finale by several days, and put it in the third-to-last position of the first day of the domestic auction. Regus also had some speculation; After all, such a big thing happened yesterday, if some adjustments are not made, this time the Wizard Secret City will undoubtedly suffer a blow, and such a blow will definitely implicate the Nosd family.
This is undoubtedly unbearable for the Nosd family, which is still recovering-could it be that the uncle took out the fine products in the family collection?
Regus didn't know what the last two things were; Therefore, one can only guess; However, such speculation did not affect his introduction to the holy weapon at hand-
"It's a quaint necklace for the sacristy. Although it does not exist in the known Hallows, its strength is certain! ”
Actually, I don't need to be introduced by Regus. When everyone's eyes were on this holy weapon, the kind of breath that only the holy weapon could have, had already made them sure - the main body that seemed to be brass, only in the pendant part there was a red bloodstone the size of an adult's little finger, and the original craftsmanship was not exquisite, and it could only be said to be qualified; But the unique aura of the holy vessel makes it quaint and attractive.
"I hope it will find a resonator and replenish us with the Hallows; Of course, we need your support! We now have a high-standard magic crystal to start shooting! There is no limit to each markup! The apostolic leader of the very sleek House Nosod, after reaching out and quoting the price, the whole person retreated to the side, leaving the eyes of the hall completely to the crowd on the scene - in order to obtain greater profits, Regus still arranged a method that is commonly used in auctions: low prices.
The auction starts at a low price, and the auction is used as a way for the auctioneer to participate in it more attractively, and to let the inevitable winner quickly increase the price; And with this, it is undoubtedly 'unlimited price increase', which seems to be relaxed, but in fact it is only a preparation for the inevitable winner, one-time more investment, and higher prices.
And, obviously, Regus understands very well that there is no need for him to urge, and there is no need for him to use the so-called skills, everyone here, as long as they have the heart, will fight to the death; Therefore, it is better to retreat than to stay where you are and be treated as an obstacle to your vision.
"Hallows, Hallows...... It turned out to be a holy artifact! ”
Leaning on Tony, who was in a wheelchair, the warm-hearted man, who had stared at the necklace in the middle of the hall as if he had been demented, muttered in a low voice, and a trace of saliva ran down the corners of his mouth; However, except for Ye Qi, no one nearby noticed the ugliness of this person's trust.
After Doug Jr. and Xsol entered the tenth item in the Wizard's Secret City's internal bidding, the two young people entered a state of trance - although Little Doug came from a wealthy family, he had never seen Kimpton bid in tens of thousands; And looking at the people around them who don't care, it's obvious that they don't really care about this money.
The real heritage is far from being understood by the so-called upper class society in Xialin District!
Thinking of what the weak demon hunter said to him in the previous casual conversation, little Doug already had a trace of understanding at this time - and it was very profound, in such a random bidding, the figure of their entire family's annual income appeared, for this young man, it would naturally be with unimaginable shock.
Compared to the shock of his friends, the young man in Qiannuma District is completely no different from stupid, although he is not drooling like the enthusiastic person next to him, but he is already dumbfounded - he was born in Qiannuma District, and for Xsol, who is accustomed to supporting an ordinary family of three for a year with five to ten Kimptons, everything at this moment seems to be illusory and unreal.
Is this the world out there?
The young people of the Sennuma District suddenly felt a wave of eagerness in their hearts; It's not like anger and hatred, but it's more eager.
In addition to Ye Qi's composure in the group, I am afraid that the performance of the weak demon hunter is the best, this weak demon hunter hanging from the injured shoulder. Only after a slight surprise. It's back to normal. The eyes are clear-
"Herman, you're really making me look the other way!"
Ye Qi's whispered words made the weak demon hunter a little puzzled, but when Ye Qi pointed to the shocked or obsessed expressions of the other three people beside him, he immediately smiled bitterly when he understood: "It's not the first time I've seen such a scene, so I just have resistance; If it's the first time, I'm afraid I'm not even as good as them! ”
"O Hallows Weapon! This is in the last five years. The holy weapon has once again appeared in the inner market of the wizard secret city, I really don't know what will appear in the inner market of the secret city in the next few days? The weak witcher looked at the artifact in the center of the hall and shook his head in admiration.
"We'll just have to wait and see!"
Ye Qi replied like this—in fact, Ye Qi already had an idea of what would be in the inner city in the next few days, until the end of the Wizard Secret City in two weeks.
Unlike the ordinary Wizard Secret City, which will be held for two weeks in a row, the inner city of the Wizard Secret City has a regular time; Most of them start a week after the start of the regular Wizard Secret City, starting on the first day of the second week. It starts every other day until the end of the last day. It will be held three or four times according to the actual situation - if it is only the items selected by the wizards themselves to join the inner market, it will naturally not take such a lot of trouble, and with the personality of the wizards, they will complete the process of bidding for items in the inner market in the simplest and most direct way, but the most effective way.
However, it is clear that it is impossible for the wizards to select the items themselves to support the entire domestic market; Therefore, the items selected by other forces or individuals, after being reviewed by the wizards, will also be handed over to the wizard's inner market to be put up for bidding one by one - it can attract countless people to participate in the wizard's secret market, this kind of internal market bidding with wizards as a review and Lorant's three major forces as a guarantee is obviously one of the key points.
And this time, in order to be able to 'fish' out the real risk-taker, Jacob and Ye Qi explained in detail what important items will be in the wizard inner city this time, and the order of appearance; therefore, Ye Qi already has a rough idea in his mind about what will be the next items in the wizarding inner market-and, after Jacob's disclosure, in order not to affect the normal operation of the inner city of the wizarding secret city, the Supreme Government, the Holy See and the witchers also participated in the bidding of the inner market.
However, such a thing obviously can't be explained to the weak demon hunter beside him.
"It's such a depressing feeling, everyone has changed a little, and it seems to be serious!"
Feeling the change in the atmosphere, little Doug, who came back to his senses, came to Ye Qi's side and said in a low voice.
"It was just a warm-up before, but now that there is a real target, of course they will be serious!"
Ye Qi answered the question of the young man beside him, pointed to the holy weapon in the middle of the hall, and chuckled: "After all, that is the existence of their life's work!" ”
"Hallow?!"
Obviously, little Doug, who had just become a witcher, did not have a deep understanding of the existence of such a holy weapon; And Ye Qi didn't explain too much, just stretched out his hand to signal, and little Doug continued to look at it - after all, some things are better understood by himself after being tempered by time; And Ye Qi believed that with the cleverness of Little Doug, he would soon understand the meaning.
"Ten pieces!"
The silence of the oppressive hall was broken by a bidding voice, but it belonged to the kind of earth-shattering, appearing at ten times the price of the original - this was a figure who shrouded his whole body in a cloak, and that deep voice was obviously not the original voice of the same person; And for such a costume, all the people have been accustomed to it in the past few days, not to mention that soon, everyone's attention was attracted by the rapid increase in prices and the sound of bidding one after another.
"Eleven pieces!"
"Twelve!"
……
"Twenty bucks!"
When the price of this artifact quickly climbed to fifteen high-standard magic crystals, the faceless mysterious figure who was the first to bid spoke again; Moreover, it is still such a generous way - such a bidding method, even Ye Qi on the side couldn't help but express surprise, he subconsciously looked at the existence of the two offers, and the two abrupt price increases; Although he couldn't see the other party's face clearly, but the other party's fluctuations, Ye Qi instinctively remembered it in his heart.
"Twenty-five!"
Another bidding voice with a sense of imperativeness, unlike the mysterious figure whose face was obscured, the bidder was a middle-aged man in ordinary clothes. A stereotypical and unsmiling face. It's impossible to see each other's thoughts. The half-squinted eyes seem to be forever scrutinizing.
This is an old-fashioned person!
Anyone who sees each other's appearance and expression will have such thoughts.
Obviously, even if the other party is not masked, the people around him do not know the origin of this person; Therefore, after this bidding, a discussion quickly resounded around; However, this does not prevent the next auction. It was another successive bidding of several rendezvous, and when the price entered the thirty-five high-standard magic crystals, there were only three people left who could still bid; In addition to the two mentioned earlier, there is also a man dressed as a witcher.
However, the family crest that appears in the cuffs and the faint pride on the other party's face undoubtedly show the other party's true origin.
"Forty pieces!"
The witcher, who represented his family, lightly quoted a price; And such a price is obviously beyond the bottom line of the mysterious man - although no one can see his appearance clearly. But after only three people were left bidding for the Hallows, the kind of continuous bidding of the three people in a cycle. This time, there should be this interface, and the other party has obviously hesitated after not quoting the price for a long time.
In this regard, the joy in the eyes of the family witcher who had made the offer could not help but flicker, and the pride on his face became more and more thick - it was clear that the man from the family witcher thought that he was one step closer to the final victory for being able to crush a competitor.
As for the rest of the one?
With the whole family as his backing, he didn't think that the other party would be his opponent.
And what about the facts?
"Fifty bucks!"
With the old-fashioned middle-aged man who was unwilling to wait for the mysterious person's offer, he quoted a price that made the face of the man who was a demon hunter in the family stiffen—you know, the unit they were now quoting was a high-standard magic crystal; And the price of a high-standard magic crystal is around 40,000 kimptons; The other party added ten high-standard magic crystals at one time, which means that this is 400,000 Kimptons!
400,000 Kimpton, the entire worth of a moderately rich man in the summer forest district is nothing more than that.
Hum!
With a cold snort from the bottom of his heart, the demon hunter from the family, his eyes turned into knives, and looked at the bidder who was fighting against him; However, the other party's old-fashioned expression, even in such a sharp gaze, still did not change at all, so that he couldn't see the other party's true thoughts at all.
stared at the other party for a long time, and within the bidding time, the demon hunter from the family retracted his gaze, raised his hand, and quoted his price again-
"Fifty ......"
"Sixty bucks!"
However, before the price of the family demon hunter could be quoted, the middle-aged man with an old-fashioned expression directly interrupted the other party and quoted a price again.
This, this......
This time, it wasn't just the demon hunter from the family who glared, but the people around him also looked at each other with incredible expressions; I was surprised by the other party's inevitable determination, and I was also shocked by the other party's financial resources.
Families in the Autumn Forest District?
Ye Qi's gaze was mixed with many surprised sights, looking up and down at the middle-aged man in front of him with an old-fashioned expression, and guessing the origin of the other party - the other party was undoubtedly bound to obtain the holy weapon in front of him, and even couldn't wait; And those who meet these two are people who have already resonated with the holy weapon, in Ye Qi's opinion, there are only people from the family, and it is obvious that the other party is not a family attached to the Demon Hunter Headquarters, these families attached to the Demon Hunter Headquarters are always habitually proud, not old-fashioned, and similarly, the other party is not an exception like the Nosd family, therefore, there is only one place in the Autumn Forest District that is worth guessing.
Moreover, only in the Autumn Forest District is the place where the other party's old-fashioned expression and meticulous appearance are most likely to appear, and Ye Qi can't think of anyone other than those families in the Autumn Forest District who can treat Kimpton like this without the slightest care for the sake of a star-level holy weapon.
Is it expanding the family lineage?
Or are you looking for a family legacy?
Thinking of the characteristics of the Qiulin District family, Ye Qi retracted his gaze - although he was still curious, he would not forget what his mission was today!
In [Blind Fighting Perception], Ye Qi silently remembered several strange fluctuations in the hall at this time.
Although he is the real 'bait', it doesn't mean that the other party won't attack others, especially this old-fashioned middle-aged man from Qiulin District, who is obviously very much in line with the other party's goal.
This holy artifact finally fell into the hands of this middle-aged man with an old-fashioned expression, although the demon hunter from the family had made some efforts, but for the same family and a local family like Qiulin District, if the former wanted to compete for financial resources, it was undoubtedly not enough.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the last item we have ever had this morning, and the penultimate item in the entire Inner Market today!" The Apostolic Leader of House Nosd reappeared in the center of the hall, and he said with a smile: "Because today's item as the finale is so special, we have to spare the whole afternoon to give it; But that doesn't mean that the items we're auctioning off right away aren't worth anything! ”
"After all, it's second only to the Hallow!"
Regus, who said this, made a gesture of please to Stendon on the side, and the master wizard made a gesture of please.
Immediately, all the eyes of the noisy crowd who had just experienced the auction for the holy weapon were on the sorcerer master.
