In Shadow City, at the mouth of an alley, Finn caught a lot of things that Josie stuffed over and put them into his spatial ring.

The double-ponytailed girl snorted: "That's all you can do, and you have to thank the Duke for his generosity to you, so that your space ring can hold so many things." ”

She looked into the alley, there was no movement, and said, "That Gambit...... I'm going to buy some more stuff yet, the fishbone shop over there has a lot of good enchantment substrates. ”

Josie bounced to another shop, and Finn looked at her back, a little dumbfounded.

The demon warrior next to him, Kramer, sighed: "It's not fair, I helped her block several poisonous spears, and she fell in love with you." ”

Finn said seriously: "If you are also tempted, I will tell her, to be honest, I see her more as a ...... Younger sister. ”

"Don't be kidding, I'm a demon warrior," Kramer said with a smile, "Don't lie to yourself, look at the look in your eyes, I want to take her in my mouth." If you have the opportunity, don't delay your youth. ”

Finn waved his hand repeatedly: "People are only thirteen years old, how is it possible." ”

"Thirteen?"

Kramer was puzzled: "In the Storm Islands, thirteen years old gave birth to a baby, you see that Sashina, only twelve years old, the top and the bottom are ripe. Even in the mainland, thirteen years old is enough to get married, where is this taboo?"

"I ......"

Finn scratched his head: "I remember that the cardinal lectured His Highness Finney several times, saying that she was not yet fourteen years old, let alone doing it, just saying that that kind of thing would be punished by God, so ......"

"Do we still have such a law?"

Kramer was a little frustrated: "I didn't know, it seems that I am just an outsider." ”

"No, no, it's not a law," said Finn, "though I don't know why, but Cardinal is guarding this line, and of course we will do the same." ”

"Oh, that's right," Kramer suggested, looking at the double ponytails dangling in the shop, "in any case, if you really want to consult with the cardinal, it shouldn't be difficult to get someone over." ”

"First of all, it's up to her own will, and then it's not just my business," Finn said, and her eyes sparkled eagerly.

Gambitt's voice rang out: "It's not just your personal business......

"Director ......"

Finn greeted with a red face, and Gambit said, "From a friend's point of view, I fully support you." However, from the perspective of comrades, you are a cadre of the security department, and your personal private life must be reported to the organization and reviewed by the organization. If I really want to develop with her, I will discuss it at the life meeting. If it's okay, I'll report to the cardinal and try to get her over, would you?"

Finn frowned, nodded a little shyly, and quickly changed the topic: "Director, how is the situation?"

Gambit spread out his palm, and in his hand were several recording chips: "As the cardinal said, it's just waiting for us to pick up the goods, or use the latest record format, lest we can't see it clearly." ”

Kramer looked into the depths of the alley and said in disbelief, "The legendary Dawn Society, how easily it came into contact?"

Gambit sneered: "The magicians use the cardinal as a pawn, they can't imagine that the cardinal is here to lift the table." ”

He said to Finn, "Go and greet you...... Sister ~ sister, our mission is complete, it's time to go back. ”

............

The VIP seats were soundproofed, and Zold's shouting was not heard outside.

He almost gritted his teeth and said, "Richie...... No, Your Excellency Duke, I just heard you mention it before, and I thought it was an idea, but I didn't expect it to be true! This is not a matter of tens of thousands of gold bushels, the entire Mage Federation will negotiate with you in a low voice! It is okay to force the Supreme Council to sign some agreements that they would never have signed in the first place, how can they bring it to the auction? You didn't mean to flip the table, did you?"

Richie's smile gradually retracted, and he looked at Zolde coldly, until the hairs on Zold's neck stood on end, and then he opened his mouth.

"Zold, no, Count Cold Spring......"

Hearing the latter title, Zolde was shocked and realized that he had made a big mistake.

"Now the person who is talking to you is the special representative of the Queen of Dawn, and who are you?" Her Majesty's watchdog or the representative of the Mildern family?"

"When, of course, the former is the first, and the latter is secondary," Zord smiled reluctantly.

"On behalf of Her Majesty the Queen, I have come to push the Storm Islands to participate more actively in the Order Alliance, and some of the things that need to be done to do so will inevitably touch the interests of the Storm Islands. ”

Richie said bluntly: "When the two conflict, will you be loyal to the queen or to the family?"

Zolde put away his smile and was silent for a moment, his gaze darkening and fierce.

"Thank you for the reminder, of course I am loyal to the Queen. If there is no foundation in the mainland, there is no identity as the queen's watchdog, and the father ...... No, the whole family, will still only use me as a pawn in the charge. It is impossible for me to preside over this auction. ”

Then he hesitated and said, "But the queen didn't tell me, you will make a move in the Storm Islands, let me cooperate." ”

Li Qi continued to pull the banner as a tiger skin: "This kind of logical thing, do you need the queen to tell you specifically? Even if she really treats you as a watchdog, isn't it her servant me who leads you to the door?"

At this time, Li Qi had to admit that the queen had a rumor that he had a leg with him, and he was the most authoritative promoter, if not the initiator.

Zelder twitched the corners of his mouth: "Richie, why am I a dog and you are a servant?"

Li Qi said disdainfully: "Isn't the watchdog you boast of?"

Zolde was speechless, as he had said when he boasted of his title to Rich.

He was still apprehensive: "This means...... But I'm not ready yet......"

Li Qi sneered, "I thought you should have been mentally prepared like this, really when I came to visit the Storm Isles, or just to receive Vicky?"

Seeing that Zelder shuddered, Li Qi changed to a gentle tone: "Follow me is follow the queen, that's right!"

remembered the past, especially following Richie's advice, and showing loyalty overnight, before squeezing to the queen's side. In the eyes of the queen, she is also a henchman of Rich, and Zolde is a little settled.

Listen to Li Qi again: "This is just the beginning. ”

Zord shuddered again, this thing is scary enough, and it's just the beginning!?

Seeing Li Qi's calm appearance, he gritted his teeth and said in his heart that it seemed that he had to fight.

..................

The magician was very punctual, and when the auction began, the hall was already full. There is also a circle of "cyber traders" standing around the lobby, who are responsible for transmitting buy and sell orders from the Book of Trade Winds.

Perro, the patriarch of the Mildern family, took the stage to deliver a speech, because it was held every month, and he could only speak a few words hastily, and the focus was still on the guest of honor, Li Qi.

Many people are running for Li Qi, after all, he is the initiator of the Mirage industry and the inventor of the magic guide gun. These people are mainly independent workshops run by small and medium-sized families and even free magicians, and in addition to admiring Li Qi's demeanor and taking the opportunity to almost exchange the ID of the Book of Trade Winds, they are also very interested in what Li Qi wants to auction.

The first half of the auction was a routine project, and most of the various magic materials were obtained from the elemental plane, all of which were wholesale. Li Qi also took down some materials such as elemental nuclei and catalysts, and the 100,000 gold bushels of public funds he was carrying on his body suddenly went to three-quarters.

Fei Gong is still poor, and most of the gold bush is invested in the turnover of the Beta City adventurer game.

Then there are the rare items in various planes, all of which are very interesting, and Li Qi can only look at them and sigh.

At this time, he finally discovered an interesting thing, the situation of bidding with signs only appeared a few times, and the bidding was stopped after the price was raised a few times, and the people participating in the auction were very rational and calm, and the whole auction process was harmonious.

It seems that there is no supporting role here that will give the protagonist a back, and such an auction is not a stage for pretending.

It's normal to think about it, the auction that has lasted for thousands of years will be held once a month, and of course you will be sensible and peaceful. Even every time there was a bidding, Zold, as the host, was excited, and the others were a little surprised, as if this kind of thing was extremely rare.

When another auction item appeared, he quickly took advantage of the discovery.

It was a group of delicate mermaids caught from another sea plane, these small mermaids have low intelligence, only weak water spells, and have become ornamental pets in the Storm Islands, and even a meal for the upper echelons.

The witches did not attend the auction, but Richie wanted to know how Finnie would react to the mermaids, so he summoned the half-elf maid who was guarding outside the VIP table and said to her, "Tell Master Pero that I like these mermaids very much." ”

The maid looked at him blankly, probably wanting to say, buy it if you like, but in the face of Li Qi's clear and natural eyes, she didn't say it after all, and obediently went to pass the word.

The old patriarch, who was chatting with the other guests, listened to the maid's words, first stiffened, then turned around with some difficulty, smiled at Li Qiyao, and sent some instructions to Zold.

Zelder was also stunned before saying, "I'm sorry, our family used the hosting privilege to buy these cute little treasures and give them to Duke Prell who likes them, do you have any opinions?"

Of course, there is no opinion, and the people who originally held up the signs all stood up, saying that it was an incomparable honor for this opportunity to give Li Qi.

There was applause in the hall, and Litch stood up and raised his hand in response, and said loudly: "Thank you for your kindness! Thank you for the generosity of the Milderns! Soon you will receive my reward!"

He tried hard to hold back and not say "I love you......

It was really a friendly auction, saving tens of thousands of gold bushels, Li Qi was very moved, and he will definitely remember this scene deeply.

This made everyone look forward to Richie's auction item even more, and when Zolde opened the folder and inserted the recording chip into the mirage scroll, everyone craned their necks. Traders at the edge of the hall also shifted their positions to avoid obscuring the view of network participants.

Circles, triangles, squares, and polygons are projected in the air, and people are completely confused.

It wasn't until these figures were put together with more complex structures that everyone felt it.

"It's ...... Magic Circle?"

"Yes, that's right!

"What do you mean?"

When the graphics are more cumbersome, and even when the three-dimensional structure appears, the magicians have understood, but there is even greater confusion, what is this for?

Underneath the converging figures, words appeared, and it was this text that made the hall lose all movement in an instant, and it seemed that all breathing had stopped.

"All the effective structures contained in the magic array are within these fifty-seven basic figures, and all structures that do not belong to these fifty-seven shapes are meaningless decorations, marks, or deliberate disguises. ”

The text kept showing, and the magic array used as an example spread out into fifty-seven basic figures, arranged in clear diagrams, and remained in the air.

Time seemed to freeze an epoch at this moment, and then the hall exploded.

One by one, the representatives invariably took out the "camera ball" to shoot this scene, and many people blinked their eyes repeatedly, obviously with a magic device such as heart talk, and used their eyes as a camera.

On the circle of Trade Wind Books on the edge of the hall, all the avatars shouted excitedly, they didn't need to use a video camera, they could press a button, and the "camera" carried by the Trade Wind Book could take pictures of the scene.

Zolde cowered in the corner, not daring to look at his father, he had expected this to be the result.

Pei Luo looked at the graphics and words with straight eyes, and muttered something in his mouth, looking at the lip shape should be "impossible".

Text Transformation: "This principle is called 'Artur's Law of Magic Array', and it has been verified on one hundred and seventy-two magic arrays from level one to level six, which are ......"

A long list of magical array names is listed, and each name is familiar to the magician.

The text partially disappeared and turned into a magic circle, the teleportation circle that magicians were most familiar with.

The structure of the circle is disassembled and divided into several basic figures and some strange shapes. Then the basic graphics were put together, and those weird shapes remained, and the circle composed of the basic graphics was still intact.

The magicians screamed in amazement.

"I've been studying the structure of the magic array, but I didn't expect it to be so simple. ”

"This is nearly half of the structure, can it really still work?"

"If it can work, the cost of the magic array will be reduced by more than half!"

"It's not a matter of cost, it's that apprentices can understand the magic array and can use the magic array to make magic guides!"

"I'll do experiments when I go back, and it's easy to verify. ”

"How do you feel like you have something in common with the language of magic......

Perot finally reacted, he screamed, "Stop——! turn off ——!"

The old legend pointed to the trader at the edge of the hall: "Close all the Book of Trade Winds!"

Then he pointed to the family's guard: "Go and confiscate everyone's cameras!"

Finally, he looked at Li Qi: "Your Excellency Duke, you, what are you doing!?"

"Do what?"

Li Qi innocently spread his hands: "Share our magical knowledge with everyone, yes, the auction is the intellectual property of this law...... Well, that's the equivalent of a patent license. Whoever gets it has all the rights to develop a product using this law. ”

Pei Luo said with a trembling face: "But, but everyone saw it just now, and they all know it!"

Li Qi said with a naïve face: "Magicians are not very copyright-minded...... No, it's patented? You don't want to use this great discovery without permission. ”

The magicians nodded their heads, "Yes, we won't!"

It's not going to be a ghost!

Perro opened his mouth to shout, but he couldn't.

Seeing that the wrinkles on the face of this old legend were propped up, and the whole face was bruised, Li Qi was very worried, don't really explode.
