Chapter 174. Panic
"This is an absolute hoodoo, you dare to sell it?!" Someone yelled, and his expression was already a little frightened.
Gods and ghosts, even in the world of pirates, are feared by everyone.
Mikel's face was ugly, but he didn't refute anything, he didn't believe that this thing could be so magical at first, but when he took over, several people died on his side for no reason, and he finally realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Starting bid, 1...... Bailey."
1 Bailey, which is equivalent to giving it away for free, but even if it is given for free, someone has to ask for it.
It's a pity that even a man like Hoin, who never believes in ghosts and gods, is unwilling to accept this unclear thing, let alone other people, and even more unwilling to touch this mold, no, he doesn't want to look at it at all.
"Crazy, right? How dare this thing be auctioned?! What fool would buy it?! β
"Let's go, stay with this thing a little longer, I feel like I'm going to have a problem."
"yes, let's go."
Mikel's face was vicissitudes, and his body seemed to be pressed by a big mountain and he couldn't breathe.
He didn't put this thing out for auction for money, nor for getting rid of it, but just to try his luck, thinking that there are so many big people here today, and he wanted to see if there were a few people who had a solution, and solved this painting, whether it was burned or chopped, there was no damage to this painting.
"1 Bailey, I'll take it."
Just as Mikel was desperate, Qin Le's sign was slowly raised again.
"He also accepts this thing?!"
Hoin looked at the mysterious figure with an expression of disbelief.
"Really, someone bought it?"
"Such a strange painting, tsk, I don't want to stay here for a moment."
"That man is dead."
The rest of the people looked shocked, but they didn't choose to linger longer, they didn't want to spend another second with the painting.
"Well, sir, do you have a way to deal with this painting?"
Although he was happy to have someone take over, Mikel asked with the idea of giving it a try, after all, this was his original intention to put the trick on the auction.
"Well, I have."
Obviously, Qin Le's reply made Mikel overjoyed.
Ten minutes later, Qin Le got the goods he had obtained from this auction, as well as a free carriage and a free groom.
"Your Excellency, this is what I just gathered dozens of poisons, and several of them are one of the ten major poisons, and they are sealed and waiting for you to take them."
Huo Yin walked in front of Qin Le with two iron boxes, and behind him were many servants.
"400 million, is the deal sought?"
Qin Le took out 300 million, this is indeed the market price, and Huo Yin has nothing to say, so he happily handed over the iron box.
"Oh, by the way, who is your Excellency? It seems that he likes some poisons, devil fruits, gods and ghosts and other weird and mysterious things. β
"People are afraid of the unknown, but when you have enough strength to build a foundation, you will be curious about the unknown."
Qin Le said lightly, and by the way, he used the remaining 250 million to buy the other venom departments that the auction had prepared for him.
Sufficient strength......
Hoin touched his cheeks and fell into deep thought.
"I'm gone, the trick will be solved by me, since the trick is already so famous in the North Sea, there must be a lot of people who died for it, from now on, you probably don't have to worry about it, because it's already in my hands."
Qin Le said, stepped into the carriage, and the groom shook his whip.
"Da, da."
"Phewβ"
The two horses stomped on their front hooves, and the carriage began to move.
"Can you tell me your name before you leave? The next time I have the opportunity, I will definitely visit you in person and thank you for your kindness. β
Seeing that the carriage began to run, Hoin hurriedly said loudly.
Qin Le stretched out his hand and waved it outside the window.
"No, maybe we won't have a chance to meet again in the future."
Qin Le's voice came into Huo Yin's ears, stopping him from talking next**.
Who is this person......
"Stop, you can go."
Qin Le commanded the groom to come to a deserted place, and after taking everything down, let him go.
What is he going to do?
The female purple-haired shark mermaid looked at the mysterious person in front of her with a puzzled expression, it knew that this was its buyer, but this buyer was unexpectedly silent, and it was rare that he did not say a word to it.
It wasn't what it had expected.
And now, this man has even taken it to a deserted place.
"Merfolk, you can walk on the ground, right? Forget it, it doesn't matter if you can't walk, as long as you have hands. β
Seeing that the color covered a radius of 10,000 meters, Qin Le confirmed that there was no one else except for the horseman who was a kilometer away.
"Buzz !!"
Endless blood flames burst out from Qin Le's black robe.
What's the situation?!!! How can there be fire?!
It looked at the scene in front of it in amazement, this mysterious person could be on fire?! It's something it's never seen in its life.
"Whew-"
The blood flame instantly engulfed the container containing it.
β...... I'm still alive? β
The purple-haired mermaid looked at the blood flame that wrapped it in bewilderment, it wasn't burned to death by the fire?!
It was devoured before it could react, and after reacting, it thought it was dead, only to open its eyes and find that it was unscathed!
"Pick it up."
The blood flame rolled five iron boxes and came to the eyes of the purple-haired mermaid, and Qin Le slowly walked from the fire.
"Uh-oh."
The purple-haired mermaid didn't know the situation, but it was obviously better to agree to her buyer first.
Two in the left hand and three in the right hand are also so-so.
"Lying on your stomach, remember to hold on to the fire, I will shrink my body as much as possible."
What Qin Le said made the purple-haired mermaid look confused?
Hold on to the fire? What are you doing with shrinking your body and holding on to the fire?
At this time, Qin Le didn't bother to explain more, he knew that the mermaid in front of him had a lot of doubts, but so what? The most important thing now is to go first, how to explain when you return to the base camp, there is time to explain for an hour, and he is also very tired when he has been on to see and hear, and he has no assistance from the thunder fruit.
"Whew-"
With a crisp sound, endless blood flames enveloped the purple-haired merfolk's vision, and it immediately closed its eyes and hugged the flames, even though it felt as if it was holding air.
Wait, like, there's a substance???
Not only that, but the purple-haired mermaid also felt as if it was flying in the wind?
Suspicious, it opened its closed eyes, and what caught its eyes was the azure sky.
"This ...... This is the sky?!!! β
"Hmm."
Qin Le responded lightly, this thing has a tight rib on his neck, and it seems that he has already looked underneath.
"Ah!! How tall is that!! β
"More than five thousand meters, after all, it has entered the clouds, and it looks like it is still Altocumulus."
After Qin Le entered the clouds, he didn't fly up again, but flew parallelly, and he didn't go to the empty island, so there was no need to go up.
"Chains? What is it? β
The purple-haired mermaid looked at the Blood Flame Chain that suddenly tied herself to Qin Le's neck with an X symbol, and looked confused.
"I'm afraid you'll fall."
Qin Le didn't believe in the purple-haired mermaid very much, in case this thing accidentally fell, then there would be no 300 million Bailey, a full 300 million, even Qin Le couldn't help but feel heartache.
"Uh...... You're my buyer, aren't you? Can you still turn into a big bird? β
The purple-haired mermaid suddenly remembered something, and was not startled, and the tone of her voice began to become heavy, you know, its future is not optimistic.
"Hmm."
"I ...... What is the future? β
The purple-haired mermaid looked at the fleeting clouds around it in confusion, it didn't know what would greet it in front of it, but it didn't have the ability to resist, it could not only manipulate the flames, but also fly so fast, what did it take to escape from the palm of this person's hand.
"Your Future...... Your future is to help me build a world where all people can live in harmony, whether human or subhuman. β
The purple-haired mermaid looked in a trance for a while, did it hear it right? How would your own buyer say such a thing? What would the people on the land who rush to the sight of a mermaid say something like that?
"A world where all people can live in harmony...... Impossible, how could there be such a possibility. β
"When I say it's possible, it's possible."
Qin Le's firm voice sounded.
The purple-haired mermaid's face tightened, and she said in a panic: "How is it possible?!" This kind of thing is impossible! You just saw it, no, you bought me with your own hands. I was just sold, sold, and caught by human traffickers and sold in an auction house! What am I doing wrong?! β
It was already on the verge of collapse, and was brought all the way to the North Sea from Fish-Man Island, the middle station of the Great Voyage, and countless begs for mercy, countless cries in exchange for only indifferent ignorance, as if everyone took mermaid trafficking for granted.
Countless times of ignoring it have already lost all confidence in human beings, and the other party has not regarded it, a creature that can talk and communicate, a mermaid as a life, and it is a commodity!
"You didn't do anything wrong, they were the ones who did it wrong. There will be no such people in the peaceful world I have created, and I promise that all human trafficking will be wiped out by me, whether it is merfolk or fish-people, or other sub-human races, they will be like human beings by then. No, we, as part of this world, are one family. β
Qin Le was unscrupulous in the face of the purple-haired mermaid's panic, and chose to speak as steady as Mount Tai, speaking at a slow pace but not boring, and showing enough self-confidence everywhere.
He knew that he should be confident, confident, and confident in this situation! Confidence as if everything was in your own hands.
Only this self-confidence will give a panicked person enough peace of mind to calm down and be convinced of it.
Sometimes, some very ordinary sentences, once they are said at a different time and place, it is easy for others to be moved by them.
When the purple-haired mermaid was panicked, Qin Le said something that made it feel at ease, then Qin Le's favorability in the other party's heart would increase by a few notches, at least he would not be regarded as a stranger by the other party.
Although, according to Qin Le's thoughts, they are indeed strangers now, after all, it has not been more than two hours since they met......
