"Master Strayn's personal diary records the major experiences of the legendary alchemist Master Strain during the ten years between the age of forty and fifty, and the initial ideas of all the projects that the master began to research during this period of time are fully recorded in the diary, and even some unknown research results and failures are also included in the diary. The auction host motioned to the assistant in the audience, and the assistant filled a spar into the magic circle under the stage, and a light curtain immediately floated on the stage, and a simple notebook placed flat on the auction table was displayed in the light curtain: "Forty-eight days ago, several townspeople in Lulun Town of the Farrar Empire found a hidden basement in a ruin outside the town that had been abandoned for many years, and they found a crystal box in the basement, which contained many relics, including this notebook. The townsfolk guessed that it might be valuables, so they came here at the suggestion of others to conduct an appraisal auction, and after the bank's appraisal, the diary indeed belonged to the relics of Master Strayne. In accordance with the usual practice, the Bank solemnly undertakes that there is no reproduction of the contents of the diary during the appraisal, and if the contents of the diary are circulated to the outside world due to the Bank's reasons, the Bank will compensate three times the auction result. ”

Strain is a legendary alchemist born more than 300 years ago, and has a deep research on alchemy potions, especially spiritual recovery potions, and has invented and improved countless potions in his lifetime, which is recognized by the academic community. He has achieved countless achievements, but the most famous are three, the invention of the sleeping potion two hundred and seventy-seven years ago, the improvement of the meditation potion two hundred and seventy years ago, and the improvement of the spiritual recovery potion two hundred and fifty-three years ago. These three achievements have benefited all the mages for more than 200 years, and have also brought the inventor, that is, Strayn, to the pinnacle of honor.

However, Strayn's personality is withdrawn, and in his later years, he lives alone and lonely for the rest of his life, and most of the relics are scattered and lost, which makes many scholars cry with regret, and every time a relic is discovered, it will cause a carnival in the academic world.

"Now the auction begins. Master Strain's diary, the starting price is 70,000 gold coins, and the minimum price is 5,000 gold coins, so bidders are invited to bid. The auctioneer's voice fell. But there was silence in the room, no one bid, no one even spoke, and the hall seemed to have entered a calm period before the storm, and a huge storm was brewing.

"Drop. The prompt sounded. The auctioneer looked at the signal indication: "Auctioneer No. 147 applies for on-site note appraisal, are there any other applicants?"

In an instant, the prompt sounded, and of course those who had the financial resources and a purchase plan wanted to appraisal, although some mages who couldn't afford it would definitely not be able to buy it, but they followed the fun with the mentality of even looking at it, and the result was that almost every mage pressed the button for on-site appraisal.

The usually steady, mysterious and arrogant mages suddenly made such a childish move, which made the auctioneer, who was the host, cry and laugh, but fortunately, the auction house had already made a response plan for this, so he raised his hand and pressed down. Raising his voice, he said, "Because there are so many people applying for appraisal, time is not enough to meet everyone's needs for appraisal. Our bank has already considered this situation in advance, so we have invited Master Antoine, the president of the Mage Guild, to conduct an authoritative appraisal on the spot. ”

"Shhh There was a lot of gasping in the room, and the mages who knew each other were muttering to each other, and although they were completely convinced of Antune's authority, they were extremely indignant at the presence of this person here at this time.

"It's over, this damn elf is here too. "Yes, this old bastard, who has the financial resources to rob the Mage Guild. "It's not in the name of the guild, it's in the name of the guild. Then it should be put in the library, and everyone will have a chance to see it. "Think beautifully, who is willing to put this kind of material in the library before death, anyway, I am reluctant." So it's definitely not going to be bought in the name of the guild, we still have a chance. "Are you stupid, can our combined wealth be compared to the wealth accumulated by others for a thousand years?" "Then you have to fight again, otherwise I will regret it for the rest of my life." ”

"Rest assured, everybody. The handsome elven mage with a dashing demeanor walked up to the auction table from the front row, and his peaceful voice spread to every corner of the venue: "This time, the Auction Mage Guild will not participate in the bidding, and I will not participate in the bidding. So you don't have to worry about running out of opportunities. ”

"Wow. There was an uproar in the venue, and most of the scholars and alchemists who had begun to despair had a light of hope in their eyes again, and someone directly used a wind attribute spell to amplify themselves: "Elder, is this the promise of the guild?"

"Yes, the Guild's promise. Antuin nodded, "No one will secretly buy it on behalf of the guild." ”

"Then please identify it. Someone else couldn't bear it anymore and urged: "We all believe in your appraisal results." ”

"How's it going, are you prepared?" asked in a low voice from Room Sixteen, where Pannis gave Vivien a grim look.

"Not at all. Vivian sighed and said bitterly: "The auction catalog only contains the magic notes of the alchemy master, who would know that it is actually Strayn's." Why can't the auction house be more professional and indicate in advance that it's Strayn's?"

"What's wrong?" Catherine and Lina didn't know what was going on, and asked suspiciously, "Is this person famous?"

"How can I say it? Freya explained for the distressed Vivien, "For the sake of this notebook, it is possible that the group of old people whose grandfathers and grandmothers are the age of the same people will fight on the spot with their chairs. If this thing hadn't been auctioned in the Capital of Knowledge, it is estimated that it would have been robbed at least ten times since the auction began. But then again, it's only in the Capital of Knowledge auction that this kind of thing is so valued. In the eyes of many alchemists, Strain is a god-like existence, but fortunately I am not specialized in alchemy, otherwise I would be one of the crazy people now, just like that stupid. ”

The stupid guy Freya was referring to was now lying on his stomach at the window of the box, looking at the auction table in a trance, his eyes full of dullness.

"Is this so important?" Catherine asked, putting her arm around Vivien, "I've never seen you look like this." ”

"Remember when I said that there were three potions I wanted to improve?" Vivien said in frustration, "He was the last improver or inventor, and two of them were successfully improved and invented between the ages of forty and fifty. In other words, with this diary, maybe, just maybe, maybe you can find a solution to my current problem from it. ”

"Got a problem?" Catherine was stunned for a moment, and asked, "I haven't seen you conduct experiments lately." ”

"A lot of experiments can be simulated here. Vivien pointed to her head: "The train of thought is completely stuck, this thing is now a life-saving straw." ”

"After President Antoine's identification, this is indeed Master Strain's notes. After a few minutes of silence, the moderator spoke again: "If you don't have any objections." The auction continues. ”

"Drop. ”

"150,000 gold coins, and the guests in box 16 bid 150,000 gold coins. The host shouted: "It seems that the guests in Box 16 are very interested in the notes, and they have doubled the price at once." The current price is 150,000 gold coins, is there anything higher?"

"Thirty-eighth guest. The price of the 38th guest increased by 10,000, 160,000, and now it is 160,000, 200,000, and the price of box 16 is 200,000. 230,000, No. 94 offered 230,000, 230,000 once, 250,000, and box 5 bid 250,000......"

"It's over. Vivien covered her face in despair and said bitterly, "Let's go back, I don't want to stay here." ”

"Four hundred thousand, my God, four hundred thousand, box sixteen bid four hundred thousand. The highest bid for this auction has already appeared, four hundred thousand gold coins. ”

"Huh?" Vivien's words made Vivien dazed for a while, and when she turned around, she found Lina looking at her with a smile on her face.

"Why go back. Lina leaned over and grabbed Vivien's face with both hands, pulling them to the sides, "In my opinion, the auction isn't over yet." ”

"Four hundred and fifty thousand, the guests in box seven bid four hundred and fifty thousand, and now the competition has entered the most fierce state, and there is a high price of 450,000. The host's voice sounded particularly annoying to Vivian and Lina's ears, but there was nothing to be done: "Well, it seems that it's really over." ”

"Four hundred and eighty thousand. Box 5 is 480,000 and 490,000, and Box 7 is 490,000 and 500,000. Box 5 raised the price to 500,000. Oh, 600,000, the guests in Box 16 were very bold and directly added 100,000, and now it has reached 600,000 gold coins. ”

"Sister, are you crazy too?" Vivien and Lina looked back together, looking at Catherine incredulously, Vivien said uneasily, "You still owe debts." Don't join in the fun. ”

"As long as there is enough time, 150,000 yuan can be earned back sooner or later. Catherine said calmly: "But there is only one straw that saves lives, and I can still tell which one is important." ”

"Eldest sister, you ......" Vivian's eyes were a little red: "I'm sorry, my desire has dragged everyone down this time." ”

"It's okay, hehe. Catherine smiled slyly, "Anyway, it was Pannis's share that I just pressed into." ”

"Hey," Pannis squinted at Catherine, "why is my share gone?" ”

"Poof. Vivian, whose eyes were red, couldn't help laughing, pointed at Pannis and smiled, "Can your expression be a little more tragic?"

"Six hundred and forty-seven thousand, box five bid six hundred and forty-seven thousand, it seems that the guests of box five have already invested all their possessions, and if no one bids higher, the diary will be ...... 680,000 yuan, and the guests in the No. 2 box, who have never bid, bid 680,000 yuan for the first time. Oh my God, 750,000, Box 16 bid 750,000, this price even shocked me, is there anything higher, now it's 750,000. ”

"Hmph. Pannis clasped his hands to his chest, held his head high and said, "You press my share, I will also press your share, now it's okay, if someone raises the price, everyone can go home." ”

"I still have 50,000 in cash. Freya took out a small bag and threw it on the table: "As a former member of the adventure group, let me also contribute, if it is 800,000 yuan, how can I shoot it." ”

"One million, the guests in box 2 directly raised the price to 1 million, the guests in box 16 and box 7 were silent, the guests in box 7 applied for a suspension of the auction, hey, the guests in box 16 also applied for a suspension of the auction, are they ready to raise funds temporarily? or reconsider the auction plan? Time will tell. (To be continued.) )
