Chapter 139: The Beginning
"'Mental Stimulation Potion', the usual market price is five or six hundred magic stones, but tonight it is estimated that there are eight hundred magic stones, four for a total of three thousand two hundred magic stones, and these two 'Fire Element Amplification Potions' can improve the user's affinity for fire element particles for a period of time, and help to absorb fire element particles during meditation, two thousand magic stones each, a total of four thousand magic stones. The last piece www.biquge.info of obsidian is quite rare, it can be used to create a high-grade water staff, if the engraved rune circle is high enough, it can increase the power of water witchcraft by about eight percent, I will give you a guaranteed price of five thousand magic stones, a total of twenty-two thousand two hundred magic stones, what do you think?" The old man with the goatee picked up the items that Lin Meng put on the table one by one, slowly identified them, and gave an offer after reading the items, Lin Meng seemed patient, and sat in front of the counter without urging.
"Yes!!" Lin Meng heard this, and nodded without much thought. As for the value of the items just now, Lin Meng also knew very well in his heart that the price given by the old man with a goatee was already two to three percent higher than the original market price, which was quite fair, and Lin Meng also knew that the price of these things at auction would only be a lot more than the price given by the old man. Moreover, the old man only gave a preliminary estimate, and as for the final transaction price at the auction, it depends on the popularity of the scene.
"Ten percent of the commission, two thousand magic stones, no wonder the top ten organizations have to compete for it, this magic stone is too easy to earn. Think about how many low-level potions a person sold to earn two thousand magic stones in order to earn two thousand magic stones in order to earn two thousand magic stones!!" Lin Meng pursed his lips and thought to himself, and he was about to get up and leave.
"Wait a minute, the items provided by the guests in this auction have reached 20,000 magic stones, you can enjoy VIP treatment, this is your VIP card, please put it away properly, when you get to the auction hall, just show this card, and there will be a waiter to take the guests to the corresponding VIP room!!" After speaking, the old man with a goatee smiled and handed Lin Meng a pitch-black card.
"Is that a VIP treatment?That's not bad!!" Lin Meng heard this, stopped, turned around and took the card handed by the old man, looked at it, put it in his arms, and then turned around and went out of the door.
The card is made of a black metal, which is quite textured in the hand, and Lin Meng's fingers are constantly rubbing on it, and you can clearly feel the patterns and numbers imprinted on the card. The pattern on the card is the thorn totem pattern of 'Black Thorn', which is carved vividly, and the number one hundred and thirty-seven is inscribed on it.
"Guests, please go slowly, please go this way to the auction hall!!" Lin Meng slowly walked towards the venue of tonight's auction conference amid the warm greeting of the woman in the purple dress.
Before he reached the door of the hall, Lin Meng saw six young women in the same costume as the previous woman in the purple dress, smiling, standing at the door of the auction hall, receiving guests from all sides.
Seeing this scene, Lin Meng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "How come wizards who have always been strict like to engage in these gimmicks!!". However, the six women in front of him are real wizard apprentices, and they are still intermediate apprentices.
"I don't know if the guests have an invitation letter, if not, you have to pay ten magic stones to enter!!" Looking at Lin Meng, who was walking slowly, wearing a black and black cloak, a tall and beautiful blonde woman, she immediately stepped forward and said softly with a smile.
When Lin Meng heard this, he didn't make a sound, and directly handed over the VIP card given by the old man with the goatee just now.
"Distinguished guest, please come with me!!" Looking at the black VIP card handed by Lin Meng, the woman's eyes lit up, and the smile on her face became more and more charming, taking the card handed by Lin Meng, the blonde woman took advantage of the turn of the hand, her fingers inadvertently crossed Lin Meng's palm, glanced at Lin Meng with a charming face, and sent a charming autumn wave, and walked forward.
Feeling the hint and teasing of the blonde woman, the corners of Lin Meng's mouth hidden under the cloak curled slightly, of course, it was not that Lin Meng wanted anything to happen to the blonde woman, but it proved that Lin Meng himself at least had the capital to be favored by other female apprentices in the 'City of Thorns', which was an affirmation of Lin Meng's conscientious work on the wizard road for more than ten years.
Looking at the delicate body in front of him, Lin Meng followed the blonde woman silently all the way, and it didn't take long for Lin Meng to follow the blonde woman to a VIP room with house number one hundred and thirty-seven.
The blonde woman gently opened the door, turned to look at Lin Meng and said politely, "Guests please come in, I don't know what other services the guests need?", after speaking, the blonde woman even straightened the hair in her ears, and looked at Lin Meng with a suggestive face.
"Thank you, no need!!" After speaking, Lin Meng handed the woman a magic stone, and walked into the VIP room with his feet raised. Seeing that Lin Meng didn't leave any intention of herself, a hint of disappointment flashed in the blonde woman's eyes, but she didn't dare to entangle anymore, but when she saw the intermediate magic stone in her hand, the blonde woman's eyes showed a hint of joy, and she hurriedly thanked Lin Meng, turned around and closed the door gently.
Lin Meng only looked at the room in front of him at this time, there was not much of a table and two chairs, the ground was covered with a red carpet, there was a soft feeling when stepping on it, it was very comfortable, the wall in front of it was transformed into a transparent glass, because the VIP room was in the best position in the entire auction hall, Lin Meng could overlook the entire hall below from the window, and the rostrum opposite, so Lin Meng was very satisfied, he sat down directly on the chair by the window, picked up the teapot on the table casually, and poured himself a cup of hot tea.
Lin Meng casually glanced at the hall downstairs, it is estimated that tens of thousands of people can sit, the seats are all reinforced with witchcraft, layer upon layer, but it does not seem crowded, but at the moment it is a little sparse, many people have not yet come, there are two huge crystal walls on both sides of the rostrum, for the time being, Lin Meng does not know the specific purpose.
Two hours later......
A crisp bell woke up Lin Meng, who was holding a notebook and reading it with relish. Putting away the notes, Lin Meng raised his eyes and saw that the hall downstairs was completely full at the moment, and it was black, and Lin Meng could feel the noise of the noise through the glass window.
At this time, three people came up to the rostrum, two men and one woman. Among them is an old man with gray hair and strong spirits, wearing a slim dress, meticulous, like a noble gentleman. A man and a woman beside him were dressed casually, and the man was covered in heavy armor, revealing a pair of big bright eyes. Behind him is a heavy two-handed giant axe, the face of the giant axe is as big as Lin Meng's two giant axes back to back, the axe body is engraved with dense ornaments, Lin Meng knows at a glance that it is a complex rune array, in the center of the giant axe axe face, a huge earthy yellow gem inlaid on it, which looks mysterious and abnormal. The heavily armored man stood on the rostrum, and the aura that naturally emanated from it stirred up the air flow above the rostrum.
The woman on the other side is wearing a black dress, showing her beautiful figure vividly, without wearing weapons, only some rings, earrings and other accessories, but no one dares to underestimate her, because the air flow above the woman's head is very strange and calm, how violent is the breath of the man in heavy armor, but he can't take a step beyond the thunder pool. The air flow on the entire rostrum seems to be distinct, one side is like an angry wave, but the other side is calm.
"Axe Locke ......"
"'Black Mamba' Glores......"
Suddenly, Lin Meng saw that the noise of the entire hall was quiet, and then the people's extremely low exclamations came, obviously someone in the hall recognized the origin of the heavily armored man and the woman in the black dress on the rostrum.
"Aren't 'Wild Axe' and 'Black Mamba' both strong on the 'Black List'? both of them are ranked very high and belong to the first tier of powerhouses. When Lin Meng heard this, he also remembered the identities of the two in front of him, 'Crazy Axe' Locke was a person who belonged to one of the old apprentice organizations, 'Earth Bear', and 'Black Mamba' Glories was a member of another organization, 'Night Demon'. Moreover, there is rumor circulating in 'Thorn City' that if all the strong people on the 'Black List' want to choose the strongest ten people, then 'Crazy Axe' Locke and 'Black Mamba' Grace are definitely on the list, which is enough to see that the strength of the two is definitely far beyond the average top apprentice.
"Hehe, the old man is the auctioneer of this auction conference, I believe that many of you here have already recognized the old man, it doesn't matter if you don't know, old man Yektov, in order not to delay your precious time, now I announce that this 'Thorn City' auction has officially begun, and we are invited to our first auction item!!" The old man smiled, and in a few words, he unveiled the opening ceremony of the auction and entered the later auction stage.
I saw three women in purple skirts each holding a tray in their hands, smiling, and walked up to the rostrum, while Locke and Glories walked to the side and sat down on the chairs that had been prepared for a long time.
Yektov walked over to the first lot, reached out and removed the red cloth that covered it, revealing a magical ice-blue sword. Lin Meng's spiritual power probed, carefully swept the long sword in front of him, and felt that the long sword exuded a chill, which was a rare treasure.
"Our first auction item today is the 'Ice Sword' in front of us, the sword body is made of the entire 'Ice Spirit Cold Stone', which is engraved by the alchemist Andy with rune circles such as 'Rapid Freeze', 'Cold Attack', and 'Slow Action', I won't go into detail here, and this sword also has a 'Ice Flame Slash' witchcraft solidified on it. "With that, Yektov picked up the 'Ice Sword', and the mana in his hand poured in, and he slashed forward, and a blue arc of sword light immediately flew out and slashed towards a chair on the side.
