Chapter 007: Nine Heavens Thunder Fighting Technique
The Lint auction house is part of the Copperfield family, and Lee is one of them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lee Copperfield, that's his full name.
Li has not had a good fighting spirit or magical talent since he was a child, and he only has the strength of a swordsman to work hard. Recognizing the reality, he chose a different path, relying on his sharp vision to work in the family's auction house. He wants to prove to his family that no matter which path he can do, as long as he can do his best, it is enough to be admired.
Lee found his uncle, who was a fifth-level steward, and used his entire career as a vouch for Caesar to get the right to use a private room.
These are all things that Lee did not tell Caesar.
Sitting in the small private room, Caesar really relaxed at this time. He counted all the money he had, considered the chips he could get his hands on, and waited for the auction to begin.
The VIPs were seated, and the auction hall was filled with thousands of seats, not counting the pinnacles of power hidden in the private rooms on the heights.
Everyone exchanged heads and discussions, discussing the gossip of several lots.
The lights flickered, the hall went dark, and the people stopped talking.
Several rays of light resurfaced from the darkness and converged on the auction table.
A flaming figure appeared on the auction table.
Whose figure is reflected in a blood-colored long dress? Whose thoughts are lingering in the long dark brown hair? The white skin is full of pearls and jade, and the fiery red eyes can see the firelight.
"She's the host of the day, the jewel of the Copperfield family, Leah Copperfield, my cousin. ”
Lee's voice rang out behind him.
He looked at the figure on the stage that lit up the hall with some bitterness.
Unlike him, Leah not only has a beautiful face and a strong personality, but also has excellent mage talents, and at the age of twenty-two, she is already a magician. In this way, she has naturally been cultivated by the family since she was a child, and the status between the two of them is very different. Even in the auction house, he is only a third-level steward, but she sat on the throne of vice president early, and presided over the highest event of the auction industry in a generous manner.
That's what she is.
"Welcome, distinguished guests, and thank you for bringing us here again. It allows us to pick up the traces of the passage of time here and exchange the shock of our past. Here I announce that the Lint Main Auction Hall Spring Auction is now open!"
The voice is loud, like a beating note, and like a flowing stream, one by one, to the bottom of people's hearts.
"Below is the first lot, this dagger from an ancient oriental country, which is said to belong to the royal family. What kind of secrets are contained in it, and what is special about it is not yet known. The starting price is 10,000 gold coins......"
Under Leah's very charming language and smart voice, everyone's interest was fully aroused. One after another, rare treasures were pushed onto the auction table, showing their value naked under the greedy gaze of many people.
The auction was well organized, and it was clear that everyone was having a good time.
"Below...... It will be the last lot of the night. ”
Leah's voice changed, and the elongated notes slowed down the overall rhythm, and a natural sense of mystery emerged.
Caesar could feel that the atmosphere in the entire auction hall had changed drastically.
It's no longer a place to socialize, it's no longer a place to spend money, it's a place where the battlefield is bloody, and everyone's eyes are no longer frivolous, but murderous.
If the previous competitive offer is just to show your net worth, then now is the time to really fight to the death.
Lea on the stage swept her gaze to the crowd in the audience, and sometimes intentionally or unintentionally skimmed the private room in a high position, her beautiful face carrying a meaningful smile, and her eyes were like silk flowing with a thousand deep meanings.
"According to research, this lot is related to a sword master, a famous sword master. ”
The hall was silent, and everyone held their breath and waited for the horn of war to sound. They all know that tonight's main drama is next, all the before, but it's just child's play, you come and go, just to get a trace of the pleasure of being busy in the rush of the imperial capital.
"The legend of this sword master has been passed down to this day, and every word in the legend is legendary. Legend has it that he has the first attack power below the god level, and legend has it that he fought against an empire by himself, and legend has it that he once faced the encirclement and suppression of five saint-level powerhouses, and cut down two of them and left in style. And the legend eventually became a legend, he disappeared, some people said that he was tired of the invincibility in the holy order and challenged the god-level powerhouse and finally died, some people say that he had an epiphany in the sea of thunder and clouds to be promoted to the god level, and that day the thunder roared for nine days. The name of this legend is - the Thunder Sword Saint Leonidas. ”
Who doesn't know Leonidas's name? A hundred years ago, he galloped through the skies of the Westin continent, and no one was invincible. Decades ago, he suddenly disappeared, and since then he has become the protagonist of countless mythological stories, as if this person never really existed. However, many large families have kept this name in the list of "people who must not be provoked" for hundreds of years, and it has not been erased because of his disappearance, because legends cannot be erased.
"Today, we are going to auction, the fighting skill of the Thunder Sword Saint Leonidas, the Nine Heavens Thunder Fighting Skill. Obviously, this is a Saint-level fighting technique, and it is a Saint-level fighting technique that has the possibility of peeping into the god level. ”
Leah on the stage introduced the background of the lot vividly, and the tone and mood were just right, which added a bit of legend to the lot.
Eventually, she solemnly announced:
"The reserve price of this lot is 50,000 gold coins, and the price increase is not less than 5,000 gold coins each time!"
As soon as the words fell, the auction hammer in his hand fell at the same time.
"Boom!"
The sound of the gavel rang out.
50,000 gold coins?
Caesar was blinded at this moment.
You must know that one gold coin is more than enough for a middle-class family to live luxuriously for a month. And now here, all measures of money are shattered under this hammer.
The old man's sword was sold for 50,000 gold coins, and with his own savings over the years, he thought it would be enough to deal with it. But now he knows that these are just a drop in the ocean, and they are not enough to see at all.
The auction room fell into a deathly silence, for a long time, without response.
Leah was always smiling, looking at the crowd in the audience, waiting calmly.
The silence suddenly exploded in the next second, a long-accumulated eruption suddenly, like lava bursting from a volcanic crater, like a torrent gushing out in an instant, like the grandeur of the gods opening the world. In short, the silence is gone.
"Sixty thousand gold coins!"
"Sixty-five thousand!"
"Seventy thousand!"
"Eighty thousand!"
"One hundred thousand!"
With just a few sounds, the reserve price of 50,000 yuan was instantly raised to 100,000, leaving only Caesar in the private room stunned.
Lakh?
Caesar sat dumbfounded in his private room. Li was a little curious as to why this young man, whom he had blocked everything for, just sat there calmly and didn't ask for a single bid.
He thought about it for a while and suddenly realized:
This person must be waiting for the opportunity, the so-called "praying mantis catches cicadas, yellow finches are behind", "if you don't sing, it's just a blockbuster", see the opportunity, and make a final decision. High!
I don't know it, but the real situation is: when the 50,000 reserve price is quoted, the lord in front of him is already shy and can't make a bid.
And the price did not give Caesar a chance to breathe, section by section, still climbing.
At this moment, Caesar finally realized how naïve his previous thoughts were.
This is the battlefield, money is a weapon, and there is a smoke called power.
