Chapter 8: The Alchemist's Dream

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Among the guests below the private room, what no one noticed was that since the first alchemist work came to the stage, the faces of the red-robed herd leader of the Sun God Dynasty and the general of the Norman Empire, who had been sitting in the two boxes above, became grim. There seems to be a slight nervousness. Attention has been paid to everything in the auctions below, especially to the works of the alchemists.

Not only the people in the private room, but also the guests below, many of them have begun to be surprised. I don't know why, there seems to be a little more alchemist's works in today's auction, you must know that in previous years, alchemists' works were basically available but not sought, what happened this year, who has such a big stroke, can take out so many things at once?

Zhang Tie flipped through the lot manual, and in the table of contents of this manual, the introduction of those auction items from the alchemist was the simplest.

――There are also several works of master alchemists participating in the auction in this auction, because the consignor requires the auction items to be kept confidential before the official auction, so please pay attention to them.

After the sunstone necklace, several works of master alchemists came to the stage.

The second piece of the Master Alchemist's work is the Pato Stone Ring, which can enhance the dual effects of calmness and mental agility on the human body, this ring, this ring, which is the favorite of almost all battlefield commanders and intelligence-related professions, this ring was bought for 49,000 gold coins.

The third alchemy master's work is a pair of Tiantie earrings, the effect of this pair of Tiantie earrings is to make people concentrate their minds when practicing, quickly enter and settle, and reduce the chance of fire by half, this thing is also a cultivator's treasure, and was finally bought at a price of 52,600 gold coins.

The fourth work of the master alchemist is a forehead ornament of lapis lazuli. Its effect is to nourish the spiritual power, make the spiritual power more flexible, and increase the person's perception ability. This forehead ornament, which can have an effect on spiritual power and enhance people's perception ability, once again set a sky-high price at auction, 62,800 gold coins.

When this lapis lazuli forehead ornament appeared, the atmosphere in the whole venue was already sensational, and no one could have imagined that in this winter auction of Sauls Auction House, they would be able to see four alchemist works at one time, in the past. It would be nice to have one or two such works. What's going on this year? What's even more strange is that the style of these works feels like they're all for women, and it's vaguely like a set.

Impossible, even the Empress of the Norman Empire definitely did not have such an exaggerated stroke. To be able to have such a set of ornaments made for him by a priceless alchemist--many of the people who attended the auction said secretly in their hearts.

Even Zhang Tie seemed to feel that something was wrong with this auction at this time, an undercurrent and restlessness were quietly surging, and when this undercurrent was reflected on people's feelings, when they heard the auctioneer say the name of the next auction item, many people in the seats actually stood up in shock. The whole venue collectively burst into the sound of cold air.

"The next item that will be on the field is also from the work of a master alchemist, this is a pair of bracelets that have aroused all the special abilities of garnets, the effect of this bracelet. It is definitely the favorite of all beauty-loving ladies, it has the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin, can improve the skin texture, and increase the vitality of the body's qi and blood. It is also beneficial for the health of the female reproductive system and related organs......"

Zhang Tie's gaze followed the auctioneer's words and fell on the projection wall behind the auction table, and the picture of the pair of garnet bracelets appeared there many times magnified at this moment. It can make more people see the details on the bracelet clearly.

In Zhang Tie's eyes, it was a pair of garnet bracelets, but not a pair of garnet bracelets, the pair of bracelets had the brilliance of garnet red and purple, and it looked exactly the same as garnet, but the strange thing was that on the surface of the original pure garnet, if you looked closely, there were actually some mysterious fine patterns that came out of the inside of the garnet, which was a pattern that Zhang Tie could not see on all other garnets, if it weren't for the fact that this pair of bracelets was big enough, those small mysterious patterns would almost impossible to see in Zhang Tie's position.

Could it be that the traces left by the alchemists' ability to open and activate this stone? This seems to be the only difference in appearance between this pair of garnet bracelets and those garnet bracelets that can be bought for a dozen silver coins, of course, this pair of garnet bracelets seems to have a bit more brilliance. Zhang Tie secretly guessed.

He guessed right.

"You can see that this pair of garnet bracelets has been successfully provoked by the alchemy master to provoke three stone flowers, these three stone flowers represent the three characteristics and abilities of garnet are activated, this is the first auction item with three attributes in this auction, it may not be able to be used for fighting and cultivation, but it can make a woman's beauty more durable, and more healthy, therefore, the starting price of this pair of bracelets is 38ooo gold coins, and each increase is not less than ......"

Before the auctioneer's words were finished, a person sitting in the second row in front of Zhang Tie couldn't help but open his mouth to offer, "I'll give 5oooo gold coins!" ”

"Do you want to take this pair of bracelets with 5oooo gold coins, I'll give you 55ooo gold coins!"

"I'll give out 56ooo gold coins!"

"58oo Gold ......"

"6oooo Gold Coins......

The price of the pair of garnet bracelets soared to more than 7oooo gold coins after a short while, and at this price, many people who had just started bidding retreated, but there were still a few wealthy guests vying for each other.

In the Chinese idiom, there is an allusion, called turning stones into gold, which is the means of the gods in the myths and legends of the Chinese people, but at this moment, watching the garnet, which was not expensive, suddenly became something tens of thousands of times more valuable than the same weight of gold, at this moment, even if it is used to turn stones into gold, it is far from enough.

Zhang Tie sat in his seat, and every time he heard an offer, his body involuntarily trembled slightly, this was not fear, but the excitement and excitement that Zhang Tie himself didn't know. Still excited......

"I'll give out 1o million gold coins!" A person sitting in the first row of the auction suddenly stood up and said loudly, after quoting the price, the man lifted his cloak and hood, took off the bronze mask on his face, and turned around, revealing a forty-year-old face that still had the charm of this woman's pink cheeks and long curved eyes. In the mature coquettishness, there seemed to be a sharp aura, she glared at all the guests behind her, with a smile on her face, but her words were a little aggressive. "I'm going to decide this pair of bracelet girls, I'll see who wants to rob me ......"

"Black Widow!" A few guests in the back took a breath of cold air, and someone muttered to themselves.

There was a moment of silence at the auction.

Zhang Tie didn't know who the black widow was, but looking at the appearance of this woman, it seemed that many people knew her identity, and this woman seemed to be very scary, at least at this time. It seems that no one is willing to take out more than 10,000 gold coins, buy a pair of bracelets, and then offend this woman by the way.

Seeing that there was no one in the room to say anything, the woman turned her head to look at the auctioneer. Without saying a word, the auctioneer with the small hammer on the stage swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "Now someone is offering 100,000 gold coins, is there anything higher." Is there anything higher, is there not? The three. Two, one, deal! ”

The small hammer slammed down, and the woman named Black Widow sat down again, and the auctioneer on the stage already had a small bead of sweat on his forehead.

"Below, the last item in this auction from the hand of the Master Alchemist......"

The auctioneer said, and all of a sudden, there was almost a collective uproar.

"What, there are also lots from the hands of the alchemist, this winter auction of Sols, is it the alchemist's special?"

"Impossible, it's already the sixth piece, even in other bigger auctions, it's rare to have so many alchemy items at once!"

"I knew that there would be so many alchemy items this time, according to the rules, the Sauls auction house should have notified us at least a month in advance, so that we could raise funds, this time there was a surprise attack, there was no news before the auction, what does this mean?" There were also many dissatisfied clamoring and pointing the finger at the auction house.

"If I had known the news a month earlier, I would never have let go of that pato ring just now!"

"Sauls Auction House must give us an explanation!"

"We need to explain!"

Zhang Tie looked at the auction hall that suddenly became noisy with interest, and even two people around him stood up excitedly and shouted loudly, these dissatisfied people were blaming the Sauls auction house for not fulfilling the auction house's obligation to tell them according to the rules, so that they were caught off guard at the auction. The transaction of those alchemy items was often tens of thousands of gold coins, and the highest had soared to 100,000 gold coins, this money, no matter who it was, was not a small amount, and for some people who participated in the auction, if they did not have time to prepare, it was also a problem to rush out such a large sum of money.

The auctioneer on the stage was quite wolfish and couldn't cope with so many criticisms, and just when the crowd was getting more and more excited, and the whole auction seemed to be about to go on, an old man in his 6o years old suddenly appeared on the auction table.

As soon as the old man appeared on the auction table, the auctioneer hurriedly retreated to the backstage as if it was an amnesty, and at the same time, Zhang Tie also noticed that even though the auction venue was a little disorderly, from beginning to end, the representatives of the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire sitting in the box upstairs did not say anything.

"Everyone, ......" As soon as the old man came out and looked around, the crowd of people who were a little excited and dissatisfied suddenly quieted down a lot, and many people seemed to know who this old man was, "As the person in charge of the Sols Business Group, I deeply regret the trouble caused by today's auction to everyone, but at the same time, I also have to tell you honestly, as the organizer of the auction, we know that there will be a batch of alchemy items in this auction A day ago, this time, there is no time to inform everyone, And only ten minutes before the auction started this morning, this batch of alchemy items was escorted to the auction house, we know exactly what this batch of alchemy items is, we are also shocked by this, and at the same time, we can't refuse the confidentiality request of the owner of this batch of alchemy items! ”

"Who is it?" A hoarse voice from the seat below, apparently having eaten the Voice Changing Pill, echoed under the brass mask, "Who is the consignee auctioneer of this batch of alchemy items?" For the Sauls auction house, such a request and attitude bordered on rudeness, and we wanted to know whose request made the Sauls merchant group unable to refuse? ”

The old man standing on the auction table took a deep breath, "It is the Salindor family who entrusted the Sauls Auction House to auction the alchemy items in front, including the last pair of alchemy items!" ”

The whole venue fell silent in an instant. The Serindol family, that is, the famous Iron Gate family, the ruling family of Karur City, the entire Karur can have the scale that it has today, which can be said to be inseparable from the painstaking management of the entire Iron Gate family for several generations. The "Iron Gate T21" brought by Barry, the dead fat man, during the trial of Zhang Tie, was produced by the Selindol family, who was located in Karur City and was once the largest arms supplier and manufacturer of machines to the Andaman Alliance. Compared to this family, the Gregory and other families in Black Flame City are completely explosive households in the countryside.

Not sure why. At this time, Zhang Tie already vaguely felt that something big seemed to happen at today's auction.

"If you don't have any doubts, then we have the last alchemy item of the day, because this last alchemy item is extraordinary, and there has never been an auction like this in the history of Sauls, and perhaps you have never really seen anything like this up close. So when this thing comes out for a while, please stay calm, don't panic, don't try to come up and watch or be curious to touch, in order to avoid some unnecessary troubles and dangers, we will have some measures for this. Thank you for your understanding! After the old man finished speaking, he clapped his palms, and immediately, a team of heavily armed warriors walked out of the backstage of the auction table. One by one, they solemnly surrounded the auction table, basically isolating the auction table from the guests below.

After the group of soldiers finished their vigilance, two men with white gloves walked up from the backstage carrying a silver metal suitcase. Then carefully place the suitcase on the display case on the auction table, and carefully open the suitcase. Adjust the contents of the suitcase from a horizontal position to an upright position so that everyone can see it. At the same time, the projector on the auction table has already shown the images of these two items in a clearer and larger picture at this time.

Judging from the appearance, those two things are completely two huge, very huge "ostrich eggs" made of some strange material, and the shell of the entire "ostrich egg" has a circle of black and white alternating spiral patterns, no one knows what this thing is, at least Zhang Tie was completely confused when he looked at the two "ostrich eggs", and he couldn't understand what these two things were, and they deserved to be so solemn by the auction house.

Among all the people, only the two officers of the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire who were sitting in the private room upstairs changed their faces when they saw these two "ostrich eggs", and then they each bowed their heads and said something to the general next to them (the red-robed herd leader).

"These two things, everyone should have heard of them, especially in the recent period, in this war, the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire surrendered one and two such things in each other's cities respectively!" The old man on the stage said softly, and then the audience was a little quiet, and then he instantly fried the pot.

"What? Are you saying these two are alchemy bombs? The only thermal weapon in the Black Iron Age! ”

A voice shouted, everyone was startled, and even Zhang Tie's eyes widened.

"Yes, these two things are two bombs made by alchemists, the only thermal weapon in the Black Iron Age, and the last alchemy item in today's auction, up to now, the most powerful alchemy bomb that the alchemists of the Sun God Dynasty can make has an explosive yield of 35o kilograms of TNT, and the most powerful alchemy bomb that the Norman alchemists can make has an explosive yield of 5oo kilograms of TNT, and the explosive yield of these two bombs, are equivalent to the explosion scale of one ton of TNT......"

Speaking of this, the person in charge of the Sols Business Group on the stage smiled bitterly and spread out his hands, "Don't ask me what the explosive yield is and what kilograms of TNT level mean, I don't understand this, this word is a professional term used by alchemists to measure the power of alchemy bombs, this term comes from before the cataclysm, which has very strict judgment criteria, I am just here to read from the script, how powerful is the explosive yield of a TNT, I also asked others before I came to power, What the man told me was such a bomb. If there were an explosion in the auction hall at this moment, then the entire auction hall and the Sauls Grand Hotel above the auction hall, including all of us here and in the hotel, would be destroyed by the bomb! ”

Hearing this, everyone's hearts, including Zhang Tie, trembled.

The head of the Saulse merchant group on the auction table looked around, "The starting price of each of these two bombs is one gold coin, and you can accept two people's bids at the same time. Now you can bid......"

A gold coin? A terrifying alchemy bomb?

Is this a joke? You may not be able to find a place to buy such a terrifying weapon for 100,000 gold coins, because all bombs are strategic weapons in the hands of the state and big forces, and it is almost impossible for anyone to take them out and sell them, let alone buy them for one gold coin. One of the most terrifying and awe-inspiring places about an alchemist is this era. Only alchemists have at their disposal this horrific murder weapon that hardly belongs to this era.

Of all the people who could participate in the auction here, almost none of them were idiots, and almost instantly, everyone understood, why did representatives of the Norman Empire and the Helios Dynasty appear here today, and why did such alchemical bombs appear two at once?

"I'll give you a gold coin!"

"I'll give you a gold coin!"

Just when the entire auction hall was so quiet that it could be heard that two voices were heard in the two boxes upstairs. In addition to these two voices. No one in the auction hall dared to make another offer at this time, and even the people who were clamoring just now that they had missed out on the alchemy items because they didn't have enough money were quiet as stones, as if they didn't see the "big bargain" in front of them at all.

"One gold coin, one gold coin. There are two people who have already bidd, and there is no higher, no, that's good. Deal! ”

The auction hammer slammed down, making a louder sound than ever. It's like a lonely applause after an actor's lonely performance on a theater stage.

The people in the upstairs box had already walked down by this time. "We need to inspect something?" The red-robed herd leader of the Sun God Dynasty, who was holding the golden scepter with an indifferent face just now, was as black as a piece of charcoal at this time, and careful people could even see that the fingers of the red-robed herd holding the golden scepter were pinched a little white because they were too hard.

"Yes!" The head of the Thalls merchant group on the stage nodded, and the warriors surrounding the auction table made a gap,

A Helios officer walked over, and the Norman general nodded to the officer next to him, and the Norman officer followed.

In less than half a minute, the two officers with stern faces nodded to the red-robed herd of the Sun God Dynasty and the general of the Norman Empire, and after leaving a gold coin each, they carefully put away the bomb and walked off the auction table with the suitcase.

Representatives of the Helios Dynasty and the Norman Empire then left.

In the auction hall, the eyes of all the guests were focused on the person in charge of the Sols merchant group standing on the auction table at this time, and at this time, even Zhang Tie understood that this auction was a prop for the Selindor family to publicly transmit a certain message and show their strength to the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire.

In the auction hall just now, what was born was actually not a simple auction, but a major event that was enough to affect the situation in the Karur region and the course of the war between the Helios Dynasty and the Norman Empire. There are two key information points in this major event, the first information point is that the Serindor family has the support of a certain alchemist. The second information point is that the alchemist's ability is far above the top alchemists in the Norman Empire and the Sun God Dynasty.

Everyone looked at the man on the auction table, waiting for the man to say something. Even as a silent prop and a witness, everyone has the right to know something.

Sure enough, in the face of everyone's expectant eyes, the person in charge of the Sauls Business Group finally said a piece of news.

"The Iron Gate family will announce today that the next patriarch of their family will be Alexia. Selindor, and the day before, Alexia, who was still studying at the University of the East. Selindol is already married to an alchemy master, and the Iron Gate family, including Karur City, will be under the protection of the alchemy master from today onwards, and the alchemy items that have just been auctioned at the auction are a small gift from the master to the Iron Gate family......"

The auction room fell silent again.

After a long time, one of the guests sighed faintly, "The war between the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire around Karur is almost coming to an end!" ”

……

At this moment, Zhang Tie, the voice in his heart and the desire in his mind suddenly became extremely clear.

This is a dream, a dream that Zhang Tie aspires to be for the first time when he is so old, and a dream that makes Zhang Tie's blood boil when he thinks about it.

The Zhang Tie in his dream has a more cool ability than turning stones into gold.

One person can save a city......

One person can change a war......

A person can become the greatest reliance and glory for everyone around him......

……

The auction continued, and in the subsequent auction, Zhang Tie's Ring of Vitality was finally auctioned off for 216oo gold coins. All of a sudden, Zhang Tie's pockets bulged.

Just after Zhang Tie's ring was auctioned, a line of text appeared in Zhang Tie's mind.

-- The Castle of Black Iron has completed the generation of spatial intelligence, the management template of the Castle of Black Iron has completed the first intelligent upgrade, and the Lord of the Castle and the Castle of Black Iron have used the spatial gate to establish a cross-dimensional spiritual power association and interaction mode......

With the end of the last sentence, Zhang Tie felt that the spiritual power in his sea of consciousness was shocked, and a large amount of spiritual power began to pour into the magical arch in his mind, the magical arch, at this moment, it was completely like a water-absorbing sponge, absorbing his spiritual power endlessly, and in less than a minute, the spiritual power in Zhang Tie's mind was only a thin trace, almost completely drained.

When Zhang Tie's spiritual power was almost completely exhausted, the magical arch shook slightly, and the color of the arch suddenly became green and full of vitality in the process.

The process of spiritual power being quickly absorbed was not a comfortable thing for Zhang Tie, in just one minute, Zhang Tie had a splitting headache and a feeling of collapse, but in the end, after the color of the magical arch that entered and exited the Black Iron Castle changed, Zhang Tie felt that his whole person seemed to have established a deeper and closer connection with the Black Iron Castle at this moment.

In the past, the Black Iron Castle felt like it was separated from itself by a gate, completely in two different worlds, and only after pushing the door open and entering could you feel what was inside, but at this moment, the gate seemed to have disappeared, and the entire Black Iron Castle, on the level of spiritual perception, seemed to be one with yourself......
