Chapter 14: Sophia's Gift Sets Foot in the Imperial Capital

in the room.

Sophia pinched the corner of her clothes in her hand, bowing her head and waiting for Xinghe's question.

Xiaoxiao lay quietly in Xinghe's arms, her eyes rolling.

"It's been a while since you worshipped me as a teacher." Xinghe looked at Sophia in front of him and said. "I didn't teach you anything."

Sophia's body shook, thinking to herself if the teacher was going to drive me away, she suddenly panicked, should she confess to the teacher earlier.

At this time, the voice of the galaxy continued to sound-

"I'm very ashamed that I'm a teacher, and I'm very incompetent."

"Teacher!" Sophia suddenly raised her head, "Teacher, don't drive me away, I know it's wrong!" ”

At this time, Sophia was really panicked, she was afraid of being driven away by the galaxy.

Since having this teacher, she is very happy every day, although the teacher did not teach her too much, but he will always care about her, and he also has a very good friend 'Xiaoxiao', and Tyrone is also very honest and honest, when she was in the dark church, she never felt real family and friendship, and finally had friends, with teachers, she was really afraid of losing.

However.

At this time, Xinghe smiled dumbly,

"What do you want, who's going to drive you away?"

"Huh?" Sophia was stunned, things didn't seem to be quite what she thought.

Xinghe turned his hand and took out a necklace, which was inlaid with an aqua blue gemstone, and a soft breath came to his face, making people feel like a spring breeze.

"I'm so incompetent as a teacher that I didn't even give you a decent meeting gift, so I specially prepared this gift for you, I hope you like it."

Xinghe handed the necklace to Sophia, but she was already stunned, not because she was attracted by the beautiful necklace, but because she was moved.

She had grown so big, it was the first time she had received a gift since she could remember, and it was such a beautiful gift.

She has hardly cried since she was a child, but the tears in her eyes can't help but slide down her face at this time.

Xinghe didn't expect Sophia to react so strongly, he was most afraid of seeing the girl crying, and he was a little at a loss for a while, so he quickly changed the topic.

"By the way, this is not an ordinary necklace, you drip a drop of blood on it."

"Blood?" Sophia was really intrigued, she had come into contact with many ancient texts in the Dark Church, and knew that only artifacts needed to be recognized by blood.

"Yes, it's an artifact, a soul defense artifact." Xinghe nodded, this artifact was the additional reward for the previous cumulative check-in, and he chose the upper soul defense artifact.

Soul Defense Artifact, just listen to the name to know what it is for, although Sophia doesn't know much about the artifact, she also knows that it must be extremely valuable, but she did not refuse, after all, this is the first gift from the teacher to her.

Sophia slashed her finger, and a drop of blood dripped onto the jewel of the necklace, instantly blending in, and at the same time, a layer of light appeared in her sea of consciousness to cover her soul, but she couldn't see it.

After taking the necklace, Sophia struggled inwardly, and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Teacher, can you help me put it on?" ”

Xinghe didn't think much about it, and took the necklace and put it on Sophia's neck, but he didn't notice that Sophia's face hidden under the veil was already covered with redness.

After putting it on, Xinghe said to Sophia:

"Okay, you go and clean up, let's rush to the imperial capital."

Interrupted by this incident, Sophia, who was originally determined to confess to Xinghe, hesitated again, and finally exited the room without being able to speak, she didn't know if she would lose everything that was hard-won if she confessed to the teacher.

——

Imperial capital, Magnolia City.

Solemn, atmospheric, ancient.

This is the oldest city on the mainland, and it is also the birthplace of human civilization, so there is a very heavy cultural atmosphere here, and many ancient nobles have also lived here for a long time.

If Chiyan City, the imperial capital of the O'Brien Empire, gives people the impression of a fierce warrior, simple and generous, then Magnolia City is more like a learned magician, noble and mysterious.

"Sure enough, it is worthy of being the imperial capital of the Magnolia Empire, much more prosperous than the cities we have walked through." Sean couldn't help but marvel, it was also the first time he had come to Magnolia City. Xinghe also nodded.

The group of them walked in the middle of the Imperial Capital Street.

"What a strong man!"

Many people in the imperial capital subconsciously distanced themselves from Tyrone, and his physique was really terrifying. With a height of about two meters and a half, the tiger's back is bear's waist, and the strong one is not like a human.

And he was carrying an iron rod the thickness of a thigh, not to mention a thousand pounds, but he didn't feel it when he carried it.

"Teacher, where are we going now?" Sophia, who is gradually letting go, has already begun to take the initiative to ask.

Dressed in a black gauze dress, she hugged the snow-white little one all over her body, which also attracted the attention of many passers-by, she is not very old, her figure is really good, she is about 1.7 meters, and she seems to be slowly growing taller recently.

Xinghe didn't think about it, and said directly: "Of course, I went to the auction house and sold the magic crystal core first, otherwise I would always feel insecure if I didn't have gold coins on my body." ”

Sean and Tyrone both laughed, and Sophia also secretly upturned the corners of her mouth, but they knew that Xinghe was an old man who was obsessed with money, and he had a soft spot for gold coins, and he had a large amount of gold coins on his body at any time, of course, he was not stingy with spending gold coins, whether it was for the student Sophia or the subordinates Tyrone and Sean, they were very generous.

Ruby Auction House, which is one of the top three auction houses in the imperial capital, belongs to the Geer Chamber of Commerce, one of the three major chambers of commerce.

Any treasure on the mainland can be auctioned at this auction house, and there has never been an accident, but the items that are eligible to be auctioned here are by no means ordinary treasures.

In the hall on the first floor of the auction hall, a group of people walked outside the main entrance, and when they saw the strong man who was about two meters and five meters tall among several people, the two seventh-level warriors guarding the door couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

The other few people, the gray-haired old man looks like a housekeeper, but the aura on his body is not weak, he is definitely a high-level warrior, and the girl in the gauze dress can't see anything, but the white cat in her arms is more attractive.

Finally, there was the purple-robed young man who walked in front, he looked like a magician at a glance, a pair of rare black eyes were very deep, and a seventh-level warrior glanced at him, and there was a moment of dizziness.

Working in the ruby auction hall of this imperial capital, the two seventh-level guards had already trained a pair of fiery eyes, and they knew at a glance that these people were not simple, so they hurriedly beckoned them to enter as soon as possible.

"A few inside, please."

Xinghe and the others stepped into the hall, and soon someone came to receive them, after all, not everyone dared to walk in here at will on weekdays.

The person in charge of the hall was an old man in a luxurious robe, he inadvertently looked at Xinghe, and when he saw the pure black eagle-like demonic beast on Xinghe's shoulder, his eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Distinguished guest, do you want to participate in the auction or send the items?"

"Send a shot." Xinghe replied casually.

"Dare to ask your Excellency what you want to send for a photo, can you take it out and take a look?" The old man continued.

"Here?" Xinghe turned his head to look down the hall.

"Isn't it convenient?" The old man was a little puzzled, in their building, there was something that could not be taken out to see, for fear that others would not be able to rob it.

"Barely so." Xinghe nodded, then raised his hand.

The wide hall was suddenly filled with a fiery red behemoth, and a powerful aura of intimidation permeated, and at such a close distance, the old man in the gorgeous costume suddenly felt that his legs were weak.

"Saint, Sanctuary Demonic Beast!"
