Chapter 205: The Mystery of the Gem

On the clock tower about a kilometer from the room where Becias was resurrected, several people with binoculars witnessed the scene of Becias breaking through the wall, and nodded contentedly.

"The experiment with the resurrection of the demon god was successful, thanks to the first-hand information provided by Darwin. ”

"Sure enough, the exiled Ancient God-level demons also want to return to this world, and it is impossible for them not to be interested in this world. ”

"If we want to deal with the Supreme God Cult, their power is an important part, and we need to find more demon bloodlines to possess next, and the current number is far from enough. ”

"It's time for the next gem to arrive, I really didn't expect to have a snack before the main meal, so let's look forward to it a little. ”

They didn't notice that at their feet, another dark priest, Darwin, was leaning against the wall with ease, listening to them all.

"It turned out to be an experiment on the resurrection of the demon god, has there finally been progress this time? Judging by the smell, it's either Bediera or Becias. Bedeera's words are easy to handle, but Becias's words are a little troublesome. "As a descendant of Ethloss, Darwin knew all the virtues of the Old God-level demons.

In the evaluation of the ancient god-level demons, Berdiera is called "a fool with only a stomach". Endless appetite, idiotic brains, horn demons with more muscles than brains, this is the image of Bedella.

However, Bedeella's older brother, Becias, who is also a cannibal, has a very different evaluation from his younger brother.

Terrifying cannibal demons, crazy tyrants, and the strongest, these are the various titles of Becias, and the title of "supreme" can also be obtained among the ancient god-level demons where the strong gather, which means that Becias's strength is enough to rank among the top few ancient god-level demons.

A character close to his brother, but recognized by many demon gods because of his incomparably terrifying power, this is Becias, the strongest cannibal monarch among the ancient god-level demons who love to feed on people.

Compared to Becias, Bédiera, who also loves to eat people, is not of the same rank at all.

If it was Bediera, he would definitely eat it immediately, no matter what life he had. Becias, on the other hand, will coldly hide in the crowd and quietly eat the humans or other intelligent races he is interested in.

Once the arrogant and unrestrained Bediera arrives, I am afraid that the whole continent will know about it within three days, and then it will be defeated by the Cult of the High God or some other organization. If you are slaughtered by the church, you may die a happy death, and if you are found by a group of magicians who study more than the heart of justice, you may not be able to live and die.

Becias, on the other hand, may not be discovered for hundreds of years. Because he has always preyed cleanly, and never left a living mouth. After eating once, you may not even eat on a large scale for decades, and only eat a snack occasionally, and human beings simply cannot be on guard against this kind of cannibalistic demon like a natural disaster for decades.

So even though Becias ate less than Bedeella, in the end he ate dozens or hundreds of times more humans than Bedeella, and was not discovered until the end of his advent period.

To use a metaphor, Berdiella is a crazy hungry dog who eats food whenever it finds it. Becias, on the other hand, is a dangerous lion who only kills his opponent with a single blow after he has a plan, and then slowly eats it in a safe place.

The organization has never given up trying to summon the Demon God, and has failed countless times for this, but recently, for some unknown reason, the boundary between this world and the Demon World has begun to weaken, and the summoning ritual is easier to succeed than in the past.

The Osbellis who died under the sword of Ulysses is the best proof of this, originally resurrecting it was just a dispensable part of the plan, but I didn't expect it to succeed in one attempt.

Perhaps, the time for the incarnation of many ancient god-level demons to descend into this world is coming. Feeling the disgusting stench coming from there, Darwin closed his breath and disappeared into the darkness.

There could be no mistake, it wasn't the smell of stupid Bedella, the kind he had smelled when he was manipulating Osbellis. The flavor is very close, but it is more subtle and powerful.

It was Bécias who came, not descendants, but the clones of the real Becias, the ancient god-level demons who once disappeared from the continent, and probably from now on will usher in a new era of advent.

In order to obtain their power, the organization will definitely do whatever it takes, and those ancient god-level demons who have needs in this world must also be willing to cooperate with the organization. In fact, the vast majority of the surviving Ancient God-level demons possessed extraordinary intelligence, and idiots like Bediera were a very small and rare phenomenon.

............ "Okay, let's wait a long time, we will display the last three secret treasures of this auction, they are all real peerless treasures, with the credibility of the Magician Guild, they are all genuine, and there is no fake!" The auctioneer shouted loudly, uncovering the last black cloth on the display table.

The first is a sword inlaid with three precious stones, the streamlined body of the sword gives people a sense of peace and nature, and the flashing water on the sword brings infinite imagination.

Hugo and Paran's eyes lit up together at the sight of the sword—not because of the sword, but because of the ornamental jewels on it.

"The lake crystal of the water system. Hugo recognized the pale blue gem, which was a legendary gem that would take thousands of years for a natural lake to be born, and it could be said that it was an extremely rare dream gem among water gems.

"Nightmare Stones and Phantasmal Stones. "Paran has his eye on two other gems, the Nightmare Stone is a dark gem used to create spiritual illusions, and the Phantasmal Stone is a gem that actually creates illusions, and if the two are combined with a water gem that is already easy to create light and shadow, it can easily create a special realm.

"This sword, called the Light of the Phantom Lake, is a true Noble Phantasm, and it is a Noble Phantasm with very gentle characteristics. Any warrior or sorcerer with the power of the water system can consider it his own treasure, and its owners have held it in high esteem throughout the ages. With just one swing of it, you can create multiple phantoms, and it's the true Phantom Holy Sword,"

"Even if you don't have a suitable user after you buy it, it can be used as a high-level decoration to decorate your collection room, and it is a beautiful treasure that combines practicality and collectibility. "The auctioneer is obviously very confident in this sword, not all treasures have such a gorgeous appearance and super practicality, this kind of good-looking treasures have never been short of buyers, even if many people buy them back only as decorations.

As expected, many people in the venue were moved. As the strongest fantasy weapon of mankind, no matter what kind of treasure it is, it represents a legend, and a beautiful treasure like the one in front of you is definitely worth spending a lot of money to buy and collect.

"The second thing is a book, a magic book that has been handed down from the ancient era of magic. ”

"This book was recently discovered by a mercenary group from an ancient ruin, for which a dozen brave mercenaries were sacrificed. After the verification of our Magician Guild, this should be the exclusive magic book of a certain magician in the late stage of ancient language magic, which records a lot of research on space magic, and there are many ancient language magic that are now lost. ”

"You all know how special space magic is, and there are no more than ten research notes left so far, and this magic book is definitely a treasure that all magicians want. Whether it's a collection or a gift, it's the best......" The auctioneer pointed out, and many nobles who were eager to get their children into contact with the great magicians of the Wizard Guild began to calculate how much money they could come up with to compete for this magician book.

Seeing the magic book, Hugo was extremely excited.

All books, especially such old books, are her favorite collections. Babylon's treasure trove of knowledge was always in need of fresh blood, and there were no 108,000 copies of the magic books in it. It is precisely because of the continuous collection of successive masters that the treasure trove of Babylon knowledge can become the most powerful great library.

"Buy it, buy it all. Hugo took Ulysses' hand, although the book of trading was in Mira's hands, but if he wanted to buy all these valuable treasures, it was up to Ulysses.

Unfortunately, Mademoiselle Hugo's coquettishness was now completely ignored by Ulysses, for he was staring at the third lot, the dream jewel that had a special meaning for him.

As he knew, the bluestone itself did not emit light at all, and it looked dull and astringent, with no trace of its value as a Legendary-grade gem. When ordinary people look at this kind of stone, they may think that it is just an ordinary roadside pebble kicked away.

But in Ulysses' eyes, its brilliance is brighter than any other gemstone, because it is the only one that has the special ability to reconcile the energies of many gemstones, and only it can extract the essence of the gem in the most perfect quality.

In order to create "Alice", the vehicle necessary for the resurrection of Yuria, it is an indispensable material.

At this time, the auctioneer's introduction finally came to the third treasure, although he had never seen such an unpopular gem in his many years as an auctioneer, and had even heard of it, but this did not prevent him from knowing the price of this gemstone.

It is said that putting the gem at auction was completely unacceptable, because the Wizards' Guild in Taji City even offered 1 million gold coins to buy the gem, but the seller insisted on not selling it, as if he thought that the gem must have cost more than 1 million gold coins.

As an auctioneer sent by the Magus Guild, he himself also possessed a fourth-level magic level, but he couldn't see how this gem could be worth more than a million gold. Compared to it, the gems inlaid on the sword of the illusory lake light were obviously more than a thousand times stronger than the elemental aura.

"This is a mysterious gem, a gem with terrible powers, its name is Bruite, and it is also known to the wizarding world as the gem of the myth of Hades, which has caused disasters in the past, but there is no doubt that this is the most special gem. Eventually, the auctioneer came up with the name of the gem based on some information given by the Wizards' Guild.

Obviously, almost no one had ever heard the name of this unpopular gem, and the nobles and merchants present looked at each other, and if it weren't for the support of the Wizards' Guild behind this underground auction, they would have thought it was just a joke.

What kind of blue stone that looks like it's just an ordinary stone, how can its price be compared to that sword and that book, and how can you look at that stone without any special features!

Only Ulysses looked at the ordinary-looking gem with burning eyes, and his breathing suddenly became rapid.

That's right, it was the blue stone, although it was separated by the crystal cover, but for Ulysses, he would never be wrong about the diamond-shaped gem. According to the method of judging the grade of the blue stone that Hugo told him, the grade of this blue stone is not low, which means that the person who completed the great rebirth of the next generation is a strong man who is at least level eight.

The more regular and neat the shape of the blue stone itself, the stronger the strength of the ancestors who were reincarnated to their own descendants, and the stronger the fluctuations when crossing the boundary between life and death of the soul, which is why such a high-quality blue stone is produced.

The dead Yulia was just an ordinary girl, and this bluestone was enough to resurrect her, and the weight was completely qualified, and it was a truly high-quality Immortal mythical gem.

There is no need to go to the depths of the southern tribe to search, the dream is within his reach, there is nothing more hopeful, Ulysses can't wait to put this gem in the palm of his hand, and then start a series of preparations to resurrect Yuria.

"Now, then, the auction of these last three treasures begins. After displaying all three treasures for the finale, the auctioneer began to announce the start of the final auction with great interest.

In his opinion, the first one was sure to be able to be bought for a good price, and the magnificent and practical treasure of the Phantom Lake Light was a real heirloom, the second one should also be able to be sold, after all, it was a truly rare magic book, and the third one was hopeless, and from what he had observed, almost no one in the entire auction house knew what it was.

"Sister Mira, buy them all. Ulysses didn't want to wait any longer, it was better to be a second earlier, he wanted to get the Immortal Mythical Gem as soon as possible, so that his anxious heart could be stopped.

"Okay, what Xiao You wants is what we want. Sister Mira opened her Sophia National Magic Book, and quickly wrote a one and a long string of zeros on it.

At the auction, many nobles and merchants have fallen into a fierce competition for the ownership of the holy sword of the illusory lake light.

"Two hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!"

"Two hundred and sixty thousand gold coins!"

"Two hundred and eighty-five thousand gold coins!"

Taji City is a bustling commercial city, where merchants and nobles are not soft in the face of real heirlooms, such as the illusory lake light, everyone can see the value, buy back not only can be collected, if necessary, it can also be used as a gift to open up some joints, after all, the sword will always be the romantic feelings of all aristocratic men.

However, they meet Mira, the dragon princess who holds the Sophia National Trade Magic Book.

"One million gold coins!" Mira frightened the audience with the first sign raised, following Hugo's momentum of winning the first high-grade gem of the water system.

"......" The entire auction hall was completely silent for a moment, and everyone looked at Mira, who was holding up the card, as if to see through which nobleman or merchant dared to make such a desperate bet on such a sky-high price.

When they saw the young Mira, they all showed puzzled expressions, and then began to think about each other.

Like the auctioneer, everyone thought that this must be the princess of some rich country, otherwise it would not have been possible to spend so much money on a decorative holy sword. As for the other possibility, they automatically ignored it.

How could this kind of girl be qualified to use the treasure.

"Okay, then a million, everyone has no opinion. Looking at the silent venue, the auctioneer knew that the auction of the first and most valuable piece was over, and the highest price of this decorative treasure was hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and the one million that Mira had sold had exceeded the psychological bottom line of everyone here.

"Then let's start with the second legendary treasure, the rare magic book ......" Before the auctioneer could finish speaking, Mira held up the sign for the second time.

"A million gold coins. ”

The tone was exactly the same as before, as if it was not an auction with a million gold coins, which could empty the treasury of a small country, but just a few coppers to buy a piece of fluffy and soft freshly baked bread at a bakery.

"Goo. The auctioneer couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, the auction has been done for so many years, and it is not unheard of to have a transaction of more than one million gold coins, but he has never seen such a simple guest, as if the money should not be used for money.

"So, is there anyone else bidding?" Although he knew the result, according to the rules, the auctioneer still asked for the opinions of the others.

Obviously, there was only silence in his answer, and the speed with which Mira raised her cards and the price she quoted had frightened the audience. Everyone began to talk about who this beauty who suddenly appeared and which country she was the princess, and had all kinds of conjectures.

"Well, then the second one also belongs to the beautiful lady, and the last one is next, the legendary ...... of Bluestone," the auctioneer did not finish this time, as Mira raised the sign in her hand again.

"A million gold coins. ”

It was still that light-hearted tone, as if three million gold coins to buy three treasures for the finale was no more difficult for her than to buy three loaves of bread.

This time, even the auctioneer was silent, he even felt that he had heard it wrong, the first two pieces of one million gold coins were successfully auctioned to be reasonable, after all, these two things have the potential to appreciate, and if they are used as gifts to open up certain joints, they can even get long-term benefits that exceed this value.

But this last one, a gem he had never heard of, could have such a high value. Looking at the audience, the other people also had the same expressions as themselves, and the auctioneer felt that tonight's auction was really abnormal.

However, weird is weird, as long as the other party has the ability to pay, no matter how high the price is, it is the other party's business, and there is no reason to refuse the auction.

"Well, the last one ......," the auctioneer raised his hammer and prepared to make the final decision.

"One and a half million gold coins!" a somewhat gloomy voice sounded in the corner of the auction, causing the hammer that the auctioneer was about to smash to a halt.

What did he hear, oh my God, one and a half million gold coins, just buy this humble stone!

However, the surprise is not over.

"Two million gold coins. Mira changed the numbers on the book and held up her card again.

What Xiao You wants, how can it fall into the hands of others.

"Two and a half million gold coins. The gloomy voice was a little annoyed, and immediately quoted a higher price.

Who is that...... The auctioneer looked at the mage who was fighting for this gem with the beauty in some surprise, isn't that the head of the city's magician union, and he is the one who bid a million to buy this gem.

At this time, the president of the Taji City Magician Guild was also regretting that he had known that there would be people competing for this gem, so he bought it for two million gold coins at that time, and he shouldn't have waited until the auction started.

The person who sent this gem came from a lot of background, so the Magician Guild couldn't force it at all, and could only bid for real money, he thought that no one would see the value of this gem, so he couldn't help but wait until the auction started, but he didn't expect that someone would really want to snatch it.

This is not possible, because this gem is a special strategic material that must be collected by the union as soon as it appears, and it is said that it is used for experiments by a big man in the Wizard Guild, and it is necessary to collect as much as you want, regardless of the cost.

"Five million gold coins!" Looking at Xiao You's melancholy expression next to her, Mira doubled it without thinking about it, and gave a price that stunned the president of the Wizard Guild in Taji City.

Oops! The president of the Wizard Guild found that he couldn't afford to pay a higher price, because the matter was urgent and he thought that no one knew the price of the gem, so he was going to buy it out of his own pocket as his own credit, so he didn't apply for the union's support.

The funds he can use personally include borrowing, and about 4.5 million gold coins is the limit, and he can't compare with this unknown opponent at all.

Judging from the simple doubling method, even if it is 10 million gold coins, it is a simple thing for the girl who looks like a princess. When did such a great nobleman come to Taji City?

"It's really interesting, it looks like you guys still have a little bit of insight and know that this is a good thing. A slightly hoarse voice echoed through the auction room, and then a strange number was announced.

"How about I give out so many gold coins in Yijing?"

"Yijing? How much is that?" There is no such quantity unit on the mainland, and the auctioneer is a little confused.

"According to your algorithm, you can add five or six zeros after 100 million, the price is very high, this gem is worth so much. ”

"Nonsense! There isn't that much money in the world!" the auctioneer knew that there weren't so many gold coins in the world combined, and that this man was here to make trouble.

"That's right, even if you add up the gold in the world, it is not as valuable as this gem, and the price of life and death is not something that human money can buy. ”

"So, just let me eat it. ”
