Chapter 268 The Horn of the Black Gold Nightmare
"Congratulations to No. 187, the corner of the Abyssal Nightmare was finally auctioned by buyer No. 187 with 6,000 magic crystals. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Twilight said lightly, her eyes slightly aimed at the Silver VIP area on the second floor.
When he confirmed that he had photographed the lot, a big smile spread out on Ingres' lips.
Promi glanced at Angel in disbelief, not understanding why he spent so many magic crystals to buy such a wizard-level material, and Promi, like other wizards, wondered if Angel knew an alchemist...... But recalling that on weekdays, the questions that Ingres asked him for advice were all extremely basic things, and it didn't seem like someone was teaching?
Promi was embarrassed to ask Ingres, so he could only give David a look and let him ask.
David also lived up to expectations, wrapped up in Promi's doubts, but also taking into account his own curiosity, and asked Ingres, "Abyssal Nightmare Horn, what is this material for? Why did you buy this material?"
Ingres replied: "Useful, very useful." ”
As for what it was for, Angel smiled mysteriously and did not answer.
The horn of the Abyssal Nightmare?Ingres snickered: This is indeed the horn of the Abyssal Nightmare, but it is not just the horn of the Abyssal Nightmare. Just like the black sparse stone purchased earlier, although it is also a sparse stone, it is more than a step higher than the white sparse stone.
The same is true of the horn of this abyssal nightmare, it is not pure at the core.
Its real name is: the Demon Soul Horn of the Black Gold Nightmare!
Broadly speaking, Black Gold Nightmare's Soul Horn is, as Twilight says, the Horn of Abyssal Nightmare. But in a narrow sense, the Demon Soul Horn of the Black Gold Nightmare has something that other Abyss Nightmare Horns can't match.
Because, it is more special and more scarce!
All nightmares, in fact, are essentially "fallen war horses". Most of them are warhorses that die on the battlefield, corrupted by darkness and resentment, and finally degenerate into nightmares, a kind of monster that is extremely powerful from birth. And the Black Gold Nightmare, among all varieties of Nightmares, is an extremely special existence.
Because before the Black Gold Nightmare fell, it was a kind of war horse with noble blood. There are different types of this kind of war horse, but as long as they have this kind of noble bloodline and eventually degenerate, they are collectively called black gold nightmares.
And the source of this noble bloodline is actually - St. Gio Pegasus.
In many places, the Saint-Gio Pegasus is also known as the unicorn.
The unicorn is a super monster that has mastered the mysteries of life and death, and it is precisely because it has mastered the mysteries of life and death that it can never fall. And in the previous life of the Black Gold Nightmare, because it only had a little bit of unicorn blood, it couldn't get a deep glimpse of the mystery of life and death, and it was still possible to fall in the end, but the chance was very small.
As long as any demonic beast falls, it will be corrupted by the aura of evil and death, and so is the Black Gold Nightmare. But because of the unicorn bloodline it once had, the Black Gold Nightmare has undergone a magical change. The aura of death and evil fills the flesh, but the unicorn it once possessed, the "mysterious aura of life and death", was eventually forced into the horn of its forehead.
It is equivalent to saying that the Demon Soul Horn of the Black Gold Nightmare not only has the most evil breath of death, but also has an extremely meager breath of life.
That's what sets him apart from other nightmares.
However, this breath of life is extremely meager and is only contained in the inside of the horn, and it does not even manifest itself directly in energy, but generates filamentous white stripes inside the horns, and the cross-section of this white stripe is spiral-shaped. In other words, the reason why Ingres saw that the lot was the horn of a black and gold nightmare was because of the star-shaped spiral pattern on the outside of the horn.
And the reason why Ingres wanted to auction this lot is because it is the stepping stone to the alchemy of the Death Sect!
As Twilight introduces, it's a wizard-grade material. With Angels' level, it was impossible to refine this material at all. But Angel didn't need to refine at all, because according to a secret record in the "Alchemy Basics" of Jinshi Science, the Demon Soul Horn of the Black Gold Nightmare actually didn't need to be refined at all.
For the alchemists of the Death Sect, its true function is actually to be used as a magic transmitter!
The book "Alchemy Basics" was obtained by Ingres from the Nightmare Realm. But the account in it is almost identical to what Ingres recorded in Sanders' study, with only one difference.
And the difference is that it is blackening.
Blackening is a unique spell of the Death Alchemist, and it has no level limit, and Ingres can use it at the moment. It's just that according to the amount of mana, the amount of blackening will also decrease accordingly.
When Ingres was studying alchemy some time ago, he studied blackening. But when it comes to the last step, when the substance is "blackened" to produce the four primitives, it always ends in failure.
Later, after reading carefully, he realized that the reason why he couldn't blacken the substance was because he didn't use a magic conductor.
There are many kinds of magic transmitters of the Death Alchemist, but most of them require Ingres to reach the Alchemist Master to refine them. There is only one kind of magic power transmitter, the most natural and can be used without refining, the only one is the Demon Soul Horn of the Black Gold Nightmare.
The Demon Soul Horn of the Black Gold Nightmare has the purest breath of death, and at the same time, it has a trace of life. Its intrinsic attributes alone are inherently compatible with the Death Alchemist. Because the alchemists of the death school in ancient times advocated "death and rebirth".
It has always been a pity for Ingres to not have a magic transmitter before, so he couldn't use the blackening technique. Now at the twilight auction, he found the Demon Soul Horn of the Black Gold Nightmare, how could he possibly let it go!
Moreover, the horn of the Abyss Nightmare itself is worth more than 6,000 magic crystals, and the demon soul horn of the black gold nightmare is even rarer, and Angel can use 6,000 magic crystals to photograph it, which can only be said to have picked up a super big bargain.
This can only be blamed on the appraiser at the twilight auction for his cloudy eyesight.
Ingres was immersed in joy, but he didn't realize that there was a deep undercurrent in the whole field because he photographed materials that only "alchemists" are qualified to use......
Ingres, who is at the center of the undercurrent, is unaware.
The auction continues, and the next four lots continue the style of the twilight auction - a comprehensive auction where everything is sold, everything is available.
Lot 159, Starry Night, Lingering Elixir.
Lot 160, Tama mon's cerebellum, used for human body modification.
Lot 161, Cloud Whale Cub, Riding Pet Vehicle.
Lot 162, Colorful Bead Chain, Space Props.
Among them, Ingres is most interested in cloud whale cubs, he has lived on cloud whales for a long time, and knows how powerful an adult cloud whale is.
But the time it takes to grow from a small cub to a cloudy whale that covers the sky is measured in hundreds of years, and the rations of the cloudy whale are not something he can afford...... The most important thing is that the price of the cloud whale cub has soared to 30,000 magic crystals. Even if Angel sold himself, he didn't have 30,000 magic crystals, so he could only say goodbye to the cloud whale cub in pain.
And of these four lots, the most expensive is not the cloud whale cub, but the Yingcai bead chain.
Although it was obviously women's jewelry, it was eventually photographed by a male wizard with 50,000 magic crystals. The reason why Ingres knew that he was a male wizard was because Lydia and Flora teamed up to mock him: "It's a joke that a big man is embarrassed to shoot women's jewelry." ”
The male wizard was furious, but he still didn't refute it, because what they said was right, it was indeed the truth.
But he has stored the magic crystal for so long, just waiting for the twilight to shoot out the space props. There are no new space props in several consecutive twilight auctions, and this time the space props finally came out, but they are women's jewelry, and he struggled for a long time before he decided to buy them...... Anyway, it's a necklace, and no one will see it if you wear it closely, right......
After the farce ended, while Ingres was waiting for Lot 163, Twilight suddenly said:
"The next ten lots are reserved items for the twilight auction, and you should also know about them, so I won't go into details. Twilight clapps her palms suddenly, and the lights dim until the auction table is cast into a spotlight.
At this moment, Angels heard the sound of iron wheels rattling, and after a while, a row of iron cages covered with black cloth was pushed up.
As Ingres was looking puzzled, a twilight staff member walked up to the stage and tore off the black cloth from the iron cage on the far right.
When the black cloth was pulled down, Ingres' eyes instantly bulged.
He originally thought that the iron cage was filled with demonic beasts, but he didn't expect that it was filled with ...... A female mermaid with a naked upper body and a pink scaly tail on the lower body.
It was a beautiful female mermaid, soaked in a transparent water tank, with a frightened expression, constantly swimming back and forth, but the water tank was completely closed, leaving only a little ventilation hole, and she couldn't get out of the tank at all.
"The female mermaid caught two hundred nautical miles off the shores of Chambord, the Feige mermaid family, has a lifespan of about 300 years, and at the age of 250, it begins to enter the aging period. He is currently 16 years old, and he is still a chick who has never mated. By the way, she has a complete reproductive system, and according to the appraiser's tests, there is no reproductive isolation from humans, but the next generation of hybrids will inevitably be humanoids. Twilight explained lightly, "Presumably, it's the royal family of the Feig merfolk who are born with talent. ”
"Whether it is kept for personal use or anatomical research, it is a rare and superb slave. ”
Twilight's words make many of the men present laugh obscenely.
Regarding the "slave auction", Ingres, although he frowned, did not have too many objections. In ordinary mortal countries, there is also a slave market, and many of the agricultural workers in Pat's manor are actually bought back from the slave market.
But in the slave market in the mortal world, the vast majority of slaves are voluntary slaves, because they can't eat enough and don't have enough clothing, it's better to commit to other families, so Angel doesn't feel too cruel.
However, the mermaid that Twilight spoke of was "caught" by them, which made Ingres a little uncomfortable.
After all, Ingres was nurtured by Jon, and this kind of forcing others to lose their right to freedom because of his own selfish interests is contrary to his values. But the wizarding world is like this, it's better to talk about reason than about strength, it's better to talk about power than about fists, even if Ingres is uncomfortable in his heart, he can only accept this fact. He can't control other people's thoughts, and now with his strength, the only thing he can do is to try to maintain his own values.
