After the final word, the female auctioneer presented a second lot. It was a delicate and small butterfly-shaped hairpin, which was lying in the palm of her hand at the moment, emitting a pale blue shimmer.

"Deep sea blue butterfly, from the king of the seven seas - the mutated sawtooth tiger shark tooth socket polished, its hardness is comparable to diamonds, and inlaid with a seven-carat and six 1.5 carat deep blue pearls and ninety-nine broken diamonds, from the hands of the great master of marine jewelry in Luoyan Town, Langmaqi Houghton, exquisite workmanship, classical and luxurious style, suitable for all young girls, starting at five thousand gold coins, one time to increase the price of three hundred."

When this hairpin appeared, the eyes of all the women present lit up, and even Eva Green, who has always been calm and calm, couldn't help but show a yearning look at the moment.

"Wow......" Looking at the dazzling jewelry, Hong Huihui's big eyes were filled with countless little stars.

After a period of silence, people held up signs one after another.

"Five thousand three." "Five thousand three first ......" "Five thousand six." "Five thousand six times...... Is there anyone else bidding...... Five thousand six second ......"

"Eight thousand!" At this time, a girl in a pleated skirt stood up and said in a loud voice. She is none other than the Miss Lisa of the Gresham family that Eva has just introduced.

With her strong offer, the scene fell silent, perhaps because of the prestige of the noble Gresham's family, or perhaps because the price she quoted was too high, and everyone present chose to remain silent.

"Eight thousand for the first time...... Eight thousand second ...... ......The female auctioneer uncharacteristically did not delay the time, nor did she ask if there were any bidders, but just reported the number of times mechanically, looking anxious to make a deal.

But just as she was reciting the third tone, ready to make a final decision, a calm and clear voice came slowly.

"Ten thousand."

Lisa Gresham frowned slightly, and looked at the owner of the voice with some annoyance. I saw Eva Green holding up the sign in her hand, and when she looked over, she smiled at her.

"Ten thousand twelve." Lisa snorted, sat down, and held up the sign, quoting a new price.

"Ten thousand two for the first time...... 12,000 for the second time......" The female auctioneer looked at each other and reported the number of times with an expressionless face, like a robot that could only report the number. As an experienced auctioneer, she is accustomed to seeing battles between dignitaries and dignitaries, and it is best to maintain a neutral attitude at such times.

"At last year's anniversary ball, she stepped on my skirt and didn't apologize." Eva smiled and whispered in the iron slag's ear.

"Ten thousand two for the third time...... Deal! This time, Eva didn't make another offer, her purpose was to raise the price, not really to buy.

After this hiccup, the auction continued......

After about half an hour, it was finally the finale of the auction - a huge, white skull with two recurves. Looking at it, there was a severed sword stuck in the skull, which was the skull of the abyss archdemon hunted by Iron Slag.

"The skull specimen of the red-skinned Abyss Archdemon, the commander of the hunt operation is the Wilderness Knight Iron Slag, the broken sword on the skull is his weapon, the head of the Abyss Archdemon has always been a symbol of wealth and status, the price starts at 12,000 gold coins, and the price increases by 500 at a time."

"Twelve thousand five hundred." "Thirteen thousand." "Fifteen thousand." "Fifteen thousand five hundred." "Nineteen thousand!" Everyone present bid one after another, and the scene was suddenly lively.

Just then, a discordant voice rang out.

"Ladies and gentlemen! I must remind you that this is a trophy without glory! A well-dressed young man suddenly stood up and said loudly.

"Because ......," he continued, glancing around, "the commander who slew this Abyssal Archdemon was a ruffian with no sense of honor, and a criminal who brutally murdered his colleagues!" ”

"There must be a voice of justice in the world, and I am standing here today to expose his hypocritical mask and let you know what kind of person this so-called wilderness knight is......"

When the young man said the second sentence, Eva motioned for the waiter to stop her. The iron slag frowned, crossed his hands over his chest, and looked coldly at the young nobleman who had spoken generously.

If it was when he was in Iron Mountain Town before, he would have gone up and slashed the other party with a knife. But this is not the Northern Wilderness that he is familiar with, but the Eternal City of the Western Continent, and it cannot be according to the rules of the Wilderness. But then again, the people of Iron Mountain are usually not interested in such accusations, they only believe what they see with their own eyes and hear with their own ears, not vague rumors.

For such accusations, Iron Slag felt both resentful and helpless. This is the fundamental contradiction of the world of Silver City, the conflict between the nobles and the commoners, the gap between the privileged class and the non-privileged class, and the gulf between the residents of the Silver City and the people on the ground.

Just like his distrust of You Ge back then, this prejudice has long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, engraved on the soul, flowing in the blood, and is irreconcilable.

"The truth will never be buried!" Not long after, the young nobleman who spoke too aggressively was forcibly dragged away by the auction house staff, who struggled and shouted like an epileptic patient.

"Him! and the masterminds behind him, they will definitely pay the heaviest price! Looking at the back of the vanishing porch, Eva Green turned her head to face the iron slag with a warm face, and said seriously.

After this incident, the auction scene became silent, and everyone present seemed to have lost their enthusiasm for the head specimen of the great demon. Regardless of whether the words of the little nobleman are true or not, the value of this auction item will definitely be affected to a certain extent. And if his accusations are true, the purchaser will lose all his money.

The scene was quiet for a long time, until the female auctioneer came to her senses and continued the auction process.

"Nineteen thousand for the first time...... No one continues to bid? This is the skull of the Red Abyss Archdemon, a symbol of wealth and status...... Nineteen thousand second ...... Is there anyone else who pays more...... It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity...... Nineteen thousand third ......"

"Wait!"

At this moment, a wealthy merchant in a suit and tie with a round waist stood up, stretched out his large hand full of gemstone rings, and signaled that the auction would be suspended. He was the buyer who had just offered 19,000 yuan, but now he regretted it and said in a rough voice: "I want to complain, you have concealed the true situation of the auction item, and I will refuse to pay the auction price." ”

There was a commotion in the venue, and people were talking.

"When this happens, the price must be greatly reduced." "yes, it should be re-auctioned." "That accusation may not be true, maybe it's just that they have some personal grudges between them." "But...... Increased risk......"

Seeing this, the manager of the auction hall immediately ran out of the backstage, whispered a few words to the female auctioneer, and then said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry, due to a small problem just now, the auction process has been disputed, and we have not considered it carefully, therefore, now on behalf of the Braji Auction House, I announce that the bid just now is invalid, and the skull of the Red Abyss Great Demon will be auctioned again." ”

As soon as the words were finished, the people began to talk in low voices.

"It's almost ......" "What else are you shooting, who would dare to buy it before the matter is clear?" "yes......"

The female auctioneer of "Bang Bang Bang ......" knocked on the auction table with a wooden mallet, signaled everyone to be quiet, and then restarted the auction.

"The skull of the Red Abyss Great Demon, the price starts at 12,000 gold coins, and the price increases by 500 at a time."

As soon as the words fell, the whole venue fell silent, and for a while, it seemed that even the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard.

"For the first time, didn't anyone ask for an offer?" After a while, the female auctioneer asked with a little embarrassment.

"The second time, no one answered?"

"The third time, is there still no one to ask?"

"The skull of the Red Abyss Great Demon, the price starts at 10,000 gold coins, and the price increases by 500 at a time."

After the price reduction, there is still no one to raise a sign to respond to the price.

"The skull of the Red Abyss Great Demon, the price starts at eight thousand gold coins, and the price increases by four hundred at a time."

After the price was reduced again, no one cared.

"The skull of the Red Abyss Great Demon, the price starts at six thousand gold coins, and the price increases by three hundred at a time." The female auctioneer paused and added, "After this time, there will be no price reduction, and if there is no one to answer, this auction will be over." ”

Seeing this, Iron Slag couldn't help but glance at Eva and showed a bitter smile. The latter then smiled slightly, shook his hand vigorously, and comforted him in a low voice: "It's okay~ If it doesn't work, I'll sell it next time......"

"For the first time, didn't anyone ask for an offer?"

"The second time, no one answered?"

"Third ......"

Seeing that the Great Demon's skull was about to be sold, a young man in military uniform and leather shoes suddenly stood up and shouted his offer: "Twenty thousand." ”

Listening to the hearty voice, Iron Slag immediately turned his head to look over, the young man was the nineteenth young master of the Bruno family. He couldn't help but wonder a little, why would they break the siege for themselves when they had never met? But before he could figure out what was going on, another voice rang out.

"Twenty-five thousand!" Turning his head, the owner of the voice was actually the seventh young master of the Cremans family who wore round-rimmed glasses and was nicknamed 'Little Monster'.

Immediately after, a lazy voice sounded leisurely.

"Thirty thousand~" Lisa Gresham casually held up a sign.

"Thirty-two thousand." The seventh young master of the Klimances family said with a sign.

"Thirty-five thousand." The nineteenth young master of the Bruno family raised his card again.

It was only then that the iron slag realized that they were not helping him, but protecting the face of the great nobles. He was a man of Yugo Lombar, and challenging him was tantamount to challenging the majesty of the Templar princess.

No matter how fierce the internal strife of the great nobles is, when faced with a challenge from the lower classes, they will unite with each other and unite with the outside world, suppressing it first and then continuing the fight.

Broadly speaking, the world of Silver City can be roughly divided into six classes, namely the big aristocratic class, the territorial aristocratic class, the small aristocratic class, the Yincheng resident class, the commoner and surface people class, and the exile class. Among them, the big aristocratic class and the territorial aristocratic class are the ruling class, the small aristocratic class and the Yincheng resident class are the middle class, and the commoners, the ground people class and the exile class are the bottom class.

In other words, this incident was originally a contradiction between the petty aristocracy representing the middle class and the ground people representing the lower class, but because the identity of the iron slag is extremely special, it can even be said to be a unique existence in the world, so that the contradiction quickly rose to the ruling class and the ruled class. On the surface, Lisa Gresham and others are helping the iron slag to break out, but in reality, they are defending their own class interests.
