Chapter 14: Prelude to the Auction

"Star, what just happened? What about the Anthonys?"

"Ding! Just now, due to the interference of a surge of energy, the scanning function failed, and Anthony's movement could not be detected, and now the scanning has returned to normal. ”

"It's really a wizard's mysterious method. Alan yearned, but there was no way, I hope Anthony will meet him as promised.

Back at the blacksmith's shop, it was late at night.

In the Atlas, Alan lost sleep for the first time.

With the urge to drink, Alan couldn't fall asleep.

Today's impact is too great, first of all, the news of the life fruit, and then finally the mysterious wizard.

Although there was no substantial gain on either side, the dawn finally came in the dark night. The excitement after dawn, Alan is extremely longing.

At the same time, Alan had to face up to one of the most pressing issues, money.

Nowadays, although it is famous, it is also very limited, and most of it is still relying on the golden sign of the sharp blacksmith shop. Vincent's remuneration is already quite generous, but this is still a drop in the bucket for Allen, who wants to bid for the life fruit.

For the first time, Alan was worried about money.

In the previous life, life was smooth sailing, and on the "Heavenly Palace", there was no need to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, so naturally money was meaningless.

When I first crossed over, someone took care of me, and I didn't need to care about the amount of money.

Now, it is the time to urgently need money, and I know that my family is weak.

"Well, tomorrow I'll look at the old vampire first, and prepare a few pieces of fine equipment, maybe it can be sold for a good price at auction. ”

Early the next morning, Alan told Vincent that he wanted to buy the Life Fruit.

Vincent naturally knows about Allen's condition, and if he has the opportunity to advance to the knight, he has to help with anything.

So under Allen's expectant gaze, Vincent took out a yellow card with a painful face.

"Here, this is an atrine card, equivalent to a hundred gold coins, my old book is here, you give me more careful, I will borrow yours." ”

"Okay, thank you, Master, you are really my reborn parent. Alan was pleasantly surprised. Originally, he didn't have much hope for the old vampire, but he didn't think that the old vampire would be willing to take out his savings, which undoubtedly refreshed Allen's impression of Vincent.

"Well, the gold coins on the big head are ready. However, it is still necessary to prepare a few proud pieces for emergencies. ”

Then it was Alan who carefully selected the materials and prepared the design and made a few things.

Three days passed quickly.

The knightly squire Jason had sent to pick up Eren was already waiting in the vestibule of the blacksmith. Alan counted his things, a citrine card, ten gold coins, and a package.

When Vincent saw Alan's package, he was angry, but he didn't say anything, blew his beard and glared, and just looked at Alan dryly.

Alan still felt a little guilty in his heart, not to mention taking other people's savings, and stealing other people's stock materials to make equipment.

"That, master, I will become a knight as soon as possible, and I will compensate you for all this later. Allen's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he was talking with the truth.

"Hmph, if you can't become a knight, be prepared to work as an apprentice for me for the rest of your life. Vincent was holding a letter in his hand, and without saying anything more, he waved his hand and drove Alan out the door.

Alan followed the knight's squire through the market district to the entrance to the inner city.

Six guards of quasi-knight strength were waiting for everyone, checking everyone who entered the inner city.

In the past, when Alan came here, there was no way to pass. But today there is a leader.

The knight's squire pulled out a piece of identification and pointed at Eren to explain to the guards. The guards didn't stop them anymore and let the two of them go.

As soon as you enter the inner city, it is as if you have arrived in another city.

Rows of white jade bricks and red tiles are neatly arranged on both sides of the street paved with diamond stone slabs. At the end of the street is an imposing mansion, which is the castle lord's mansion.

However, Alan and the others did not go to the City Lord's Mansion, but turned a corner and went straight to another street.

The people walking here are all nobles with fine clothes and fine food, and there are no dirty and messy cars, which makes Alan feel like a bustling pedestrian street on the earth in his previous life.

They came to a teahouse, where the staggered private rooms were separated by white jade screens, and the interior became a landscape of its own.

Jason was beckoning a couple of aristocratic teenagers inside.

"Master Allen is here, take a seat. Jason saw Alan at the door of the elegant seat, and introduced to the people around him with a smile: "This is the famous Master Allen in the outer city, don't look at his young age, he is also a real quasi-knight, I think it was he who fought side by side with me in the beginning, fighting the market area and looking for teeth." ”

Jason bragged unequivocally, and stunned the crowd around him.

At the same time, he did not forget to introduce everyone present to Allen. They are all children of nobles, and if you want to talk about what they have in common, they are all depressed concubines in the family.

"No wonder this group of people came together. Alan thought in his heart, but he also greeted everyone with the old god on the ground, and he had the demeanor of a master.

In private, Alan and Jason tagged each other, one honored the young city lord, and the other complimented the master, and he didn't need to make a draft when he bragged.

Although all this happened to an eleven-year-old child, it seemed a little different.

However, the people present are all crawling out of their respective families, and they all have a juvenile city, so naturally they don't care about this.

"I really envy Master Allen and Young Master Jason, they are already quasi-knights, and I am still lingering in the initial rank of trainee knights. The little nobleman sitting on Jason's right let out a sigh.

"That's right, there must be two life fruits this time, there are no other quasi-knights among the young nobles in Budapest City, and things like life fruits can only be stored for seven days at most. "Everyone present said a word, which can be regarded as a prelude to the auction - sharing news.

"I heard that even the surrounding cities of Laxia, Mesomia, and the great nobles of the neutral regions sent people to participate in this auction. ”

"I know better, they're all here for one of the finale items of the auction. It is expected that the competition will be fierce. ”

"No, I just want to be content with a handy weapon. ”

"You should find Master Allen to buy weapons, ready-made blacksmiths, what weapons do you want? Jason duly pitched Allen.

"That's right, Master Allen, if I don't find the right weapon at auction, I'll really have to trouble the master. It was Bill from the Austin family who spoke, but he didn't think Alan could build any good weapons, so he had to echo in order not to save Jason's face.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. "Alan knows that with his civilian identity, it is enough to pretend to be a master to save face, and if he really wants to take care of his identity, the concubines present will probably look down on him.
