Saul was helped to the side with a pale face, he glanced at Duke, then gritted his teeth, turned to Dalipson's direction, bowed and said, "Dear Mr. Curator, I still want to continue to participate in the auction below, can I pay a deposit first, and then pay together when it is over?"

Just now he was just careless, if he left like this, he would definitely not be reconciled!

Moreover, only when his goal is achieved, the huge amount of money spent of 4,000 gold is worthwhile, and there is a reason to explain it to his grandfather when he goes back. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Dalipson nodded, but asked him to sign the details so that he didn't have to worry about his denial and non-payment.

After signing, Thor stared at Duke viciously and returned to his original position.

Duke sighed in his heart, this is because the fight is not painful enough!

He has seen a lot of this kind of red-eyed gambler state, and in the end there is only one end, losing more, or losing everything!

Dalipson checked Saul's signature, glanced at Duke, then took out a book as thick as a dictionary, and said: ""Morgs Continent Travels", the author is the archmage Morges, he is good at writing long poems, and he is unique in the description of scenery, and is one of the famous poets of the time...... The starting price is 300 gold, and each increase shall not be less than 50 gold. ”

Duke made a direct bid: "A thousand gold!"

In the long history of elves, Mogus is not very famous, and he writes long poems, which is generally attractive to elves living in nature, plus its starting price is not low, Duke doubled all of a sudden, and those who originally wanted to make a move have extinguished their hearts, and no one followed the price.

But for Duke, a thousand gold can be worth it, one is that its author is an archmage, he is very curious about mages, if he is going to travel to the mainland, he has to deal with them, this book may give him some inspiration, and, more importantly, this is a mainland travel book, which is helpful for his future plans.

And Saul had just suffered a loss, and although he wanted to raise the price, he finally decided to observe it first, so Duke won the book very smoothly.

After the handover, for the next three rounds, Duke would bid each time, and one book was raised to two thousand gold before stopping.

Dalipson then pulled out a book with a purple glow on the cover.

As soon as the book was taken out, it instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Dalipson showed the book to the public, and saw a picture on the cover of an elf girl sitting in a small garden surrounded by vines against the moon, but because of the clouds, the moonlight shone down from the clouds, illuminating only half of her body and the flowers around her, and the rest of the place was in darkness, and in the darkness there was a pair of blood-red eyes watching her!

"Ahh

"Lady Natijavi's Kiss of the Spider?!Oh my God, I read that right!"

Exclamations arose one after another, and Duke took a closer look and found its title at the top of the book.

Without him having to think hard, he knew the general information of the book from the exclamations of the people around him: "The Kiss of the Queen Spider" can be regarded as Natiavi's autobiographical love poem, describing her emotional experience, which has less sweetness of love and more torment and pain, which is considered to be the representative work of the "pain school", and many of the works in it are considered to be classics and pinnacles of writing about love.

The spider queen refers to the half-elf and half-spider evil god Evangeline, she is the embodiment of darkness, depravity and lust// lust, such a reputation is certainly not good, but in the elven culture, especially those poets, they are used to using her as a metaphor for love, and Natyavi also degenerated into a believer in Evangeline after writing this collection of poems, so she took this name.

For Duke, he wasn't interested in the poetry book itself, but it could be seen as Natiavi's alternative "enlightenment" work, in which he might be able to find some of the trajectories and characteristics of the Queen Spider, and when he met the Spider's followers in the future, he wouldn't know how to deal with them - and then he also remembered one of Evangeline's signature skills: the dark spell Kiss of the Queen, which all of her followers would use.

The trouble with this spell is that the spell is cast secretly and varied, and it is difficult for outsiders to detect, and the powerful part is that if you are hit, you will be in a state of being charmed and be drained of your life without being aware of it.

Therefore, as soon as Dalipson announced that the reserve price for the book at auction was 800 gold, he directly offered 3,000 gold.

As soon as they heard his offer, countless people glared at him, the first few books became very expensive because of him, but Duke didn't care, he played the idea of directly paying a high price to scare off others.

Actually, don't look at spending 3,000 gold now, but he can finish reading it and then sell it, so it won't cost much, and he can even make a small profit.

However, he underestimated the status of this book in the hearts of the "literary" elves, and someone immediately followed, offering 3,200 gold.

Duke did not hesitate to offer four thousand gold directly!

Since he has the idea of selling it after reading it, he doesn't mind how much money he pays now, anyway, he can get it back in the future.

Hearing his offer, the crowd suddenly rioted again, but the price of four thousand gold was not too high, so someone raised the price by two hundred.

Duke, still without thinking, directly quoted five thousand gold.

At this time, Saul finally couldn't help it, through the previous few observations, he hadn't seen Duke raise the price on such a large scale, so he gritted his teeth and raised his hand to offer: "I'll pay five thousand two hundred gold." ”

A faint smile appeared on Duke's face, and Thor finally couldn't help it!

Since this was the case, he immediately changed his purpose, but he still did not hesitate and directly quoted six thousand.

Thor felt as if his blood was about to boil, and he made Duke spend an extra thousand on one bid, but it wasn't enough! He cheered up, watched at any slight changes in Duke, and bid again: "I'll pay six thousand two hundred gold!"

But he didn't know the bottom in his heart, and decided that as long as Duke came out to seven thousand, he would stop, so as to avenge the revenge he had just been tricked with, and achieve his goal of weakening Duke.

Without any hesitation, Duke quoted, "Seven thousand gold." ”

Saul smiled proudly, waiting for Duke to spend 7,000 gold to buy a useless book, and then tell the teacher about it, although it was Duke's own money, it would definitely make the teacher dissatisfied!

However, if he did not make a bid, it did not mean that others would not pay, and soon someone quoted a price of 7,500 gold.

Duke immediately raised his hand and offered: "Eight thousand gold!"

At this price, the surrounding discussion is quieter.

Thor felt like a hundred claws in his heart, looking at Duke's performance, he seemed to be determined to get the book, he had a strong urge to quote again, but he was afraid that Duke would not follow and smash it in his hands again, so he looked with anticipation at the elf who had just quoted and wore a crown made of Broken Star Golden Vine, hoping that he would make another bid - his Broken Star Golden Vine crown was three thousand gold, and he should follow, right?

The other party really lived up to his expectations, thought about it, followed again, and bid 8,500 gold.

As if he had no feeling for the gold coins, Duke immediately quoted nine thousand gold.

Thor's heart was beating wildly, and he couldn't help but quote again: "I'll pay nine thousand two hundred gold!"

Duke couldn't help but turn to look at him, as if holding back his anger, and asked, "Do you really like this book of poems by Lady Natijavi?"

Saul's heart was happy and a little apprehensive, but his face was very solemn, and he said: "Of course! I greatly admire Lady Natiavi's poetry collection, and to be able to take her book with me to read it will be the noblest thing in my life!"

Duke turned around and was silent for a moment.

Thor's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and at this time, Dalipson also signaled that if no one bid, he would have to hammer the hammer.

............

Thor's breathing is about to stop, is it possible that he has been pitted by Duke again this time?

If Duke didn't like the book, how could he bid so sharply every time?

Hurry up and quote it!

At this time, Duke glanced back at him, raised his hand and offered, "I'll pay 10,000 gold!"

Salton felt a stone fall to the ground in his heart, and then a pleasure that was more refreshing and breathable than the fruit that he had eaten in the spring water in the summer, and more extreme than the final launch, rose from the bottom of his heart, and spread throughout his body like an explosion!

Compared with 10,000 gold, what is the 4,000 gold just now?

Duke did not turn around in a hurry after quoting the price, but said to him again: "Thor, we come from a tribe, and I especially like this book of poems by Lady Natiavi, so why do you have to fight with me?"

Thor was in an unusually high state, and when he heard this, he suddenly became as energetic as a snake with its tail stepped on, and he gracefully saluted Duke: "No, you are wrong, I love this book of poems of Lady Natyavi even more than my life, so, sorry, Duke-"

He straightened up again, looked at Dalipson's book of poems, and said, "I'll give ten thousand...... A thousand gold!"

Hearing this offer, the crowd, which had been quiet, suddenly let out a burst of inhalation, and then a burst of applause, but it was the appreciation of his bid and the admiration for Natiavi in his speech just now.

Thor felt a wave of vanity satisfaction, but his heart hung in his throat again, and he looked at Duke and decided that this time Duke would quote another price, and he really wouldn't follow!

Duke's brow furrowed, then he slowly turned away, silent.

A bad feeling came over Thor, and he barely managed to hold his composure, waiting for Duke's next reaction.

Duke remained silent for the rest of the day.

Thor felt his legs shake.

At this point, Dalipson asked, "Is there anyone else making an offer?"

Although he questioned the crowd, it was Duke who looked at him.

Duke looked up at him, then sighed, "When I read the biography of the former sage, I saw the sentence 'A man of high moral character has the virtue of fulfilling the good wishes of others', and since Saul loves Lady Natiavi's poetry so much, then I will give it up." ”

His sentence "I'll give up" was said easily, but in Thor's ears, it was like the most violent thunder and lightning of summer exploded in his ears, and he only felt that everything in front of him lost its bright color and became black and white, and he didn't faint, but felt his heart broken......

PS: Thank you for the super boring book friend, my friend can't be so... of tips.

There's still a little tail, and the plot of the auction is over, and then the plot of the competition and the moonlight glade, and then it should be high and high, and the only thing that is uncertain is my state......
