Chapter 148: Calamity Sea Serpent's Tail
On Sunday morning, Lewis woke up early from his hotel room, made a sealed spiritual wall, and placed a red candle and a black candle in front of him.
Spiritually lit the candle, Lewis recited the prayer statement:
"I pray for the power of the night;
I pray for the power of Crimson;
I pray for the Goddess's favor;
Pray that I will be given the power to hide my message;
O night vanilla, herb that belongs to the night, please pass my wish to the mantra......"
As the prayer was finished, the black and red candles burst into bright flames, and Lewis felt a majestic force descending on the place, as if a black veil had been covered over his body.
Feeling the favor of the goddess, at this moment, Lewis's heart was extremely religious.
He sketched the crimson moon four times in a row on his chest, and said reverently:
"Storm, no, praise the Goddess."
In an instant, the red and black candles lit up again, and then immediately extinguished, like the mood of the goddess of the night.
Lewis hurriedly packed up the ritual items and lifted the sealed spiritual wall.
Participating in the auction today is a risky move, if the transcendent who attacked him last time was really a "magician", then, the moment he appeared at the auction, the other party would recognize him at a glance.
"Magicians" are also a transcendent profession that relies heavily on inspiration, and they rely not solely on visual means to identify a person, but also on spiritual cues.
Therefore, even if he has anti-divination qualities, he must only dare to go after receiving the blessing of the goddess.
Descending the stairs, Lewis put on a half-height silk top hat and went to the real "deep-sea auction house" in a hurry.
The entrance was in the residential area behind Denia Street, and since he had inadvertently left here last time, he could find the entrance accurately.
Walking to the door, Lewis knocked four times.
After more than ten seconds, a strong man in a black uniform opened the door from the inside, he looked at Lewis and said strangely:
"It seems like I'm seeing you for the first time."
"Charlotte. Wimbledon, I'm a new member and have been invited to today's auction. Lewis smiled faintly and said politely.
The real "deep-sea auction" is membership-based, and if you want to participate in the auction, you have to be recommended by at least two members, and Paul takes care of that, so he only needs to say his name.
Of course, the name is fake.
"It's Mr. Charlotte, the auction will start at half past eight sharp, and you can go to the members area to taste today's breakfast before that." The strong man welcomed Lewis in.
He didn't notice that after Lewis left, he had completely forgotten what the other person looked like and what his name was, and he didn't even remember that such a person had just spoken to him.
Lewis's presence seemed to be hidden from his memory.
After half past eight, the strong man picked up a stick he was leaning against in front of the wall and practiced swinging it.
He always believes that if he persists in the same thing for ten years, he will become a top master.
After a lavish breakfast and a deposit, Lewis sat down in the auction hall and waited for the auction to begin.
If he can successfully obtain the bitter gall of the Calamity Sea Serpent, the only main materials he lacks are the tail of the Calamity Sea Serpent and the fresh saliva of the mermaid.
The auxiliary materials are still easy to find, only the blood of the Silver and White Serpent needs to be purchased, after all, this is also an extraordinary material.
"Hopefully I'll have some luck today and meet the main material I need." Lewis looked around, and the number of people participating in the auction was close to 50, which was quite a lot.
The magician who was watching the auction didn't seem to come, at least he didn't see the other party.
Suddenly, Lewis shifted his gaze to a chubby man in the third row on the right, and in this man, he felt familiar.
Obviously, the "magician" did not not come, but participated in the auction, monitoring the auction as a customer.
Moreover, this transcendent is not a "magician", but a "Faceling" of Sequence Six, and only Facelings can change their body shape and appearance at will.
Lewis's heart fluttered:
"A Sequence Six, but just staying at the auction to watch the venue, the gang in Port Enmatt is even more powerful than I thought.
It's no wonder that there is no gangster fighting in the local area, with such a behemoth, there will be no second gangster at all. ”
Soon, today's auction began, and a female auctioneer stood on the stage and began to explain diligently;
"The first item to be auctioned today is the blood of the Silver Serpent, 20 ml, with a starting price of £180!"
Not surprisingly, Lewis made a bid, which is one of the auxiliary materials for the "Priest of Calamity".
Since there were not many transcendents who could use this transcendent material, no one participated in the bidding, and Lewis successfully auctioned the item at the reserve price.
The auction continued, and those finished magical items were more likely to fetch a high price than the supernatural materials, and an ordinary supernatural item could easily fetch more than a thousand pounds.
The only item that interests Lewis is the "Thief's Wallet", which can be used to steal a random supernatural ability by placing a silver coin into it, with the possibility of failure.
The side effects are relatively minor, and with it becomes forgetful and occasionally forgets something important.
However, the item was eventually taken away by a tall and thin man for 1,900 pounds.
Half an hour into the auction, Lewis saw the waiter bring a black plate.
The auctioneer placed the plate on the floor, and she lifted the black veil, and under the veil was a thick snake's tail.
The snake's tail is dark blue with black patterns on it, and when it sees the light, the snake's tail seems to come to life and swings hard.
Suddenly, the crystal chandelier above the auctioneer's head fell, and the stage became a little darker.
Immediately afterwards, the wooden floor of the stage collapsed, and the solid floor seemed to have suddenly decayed.
The female auctioneer nimbly dodged the falling chandelier and the pit on the stage, and she hurriedly covered the snake's tail with a black cloth, and suddenly everything was gone.
With a charming smile again, the auctioneer explained:
"The tail of the Calamity Sea Serpent, which is said to be the main ingredient for certain potions, can also be made into unusual magical items by the hands of 'craftsmen', with a starting price of 2,100 pounds and a price increase of 100 pounds each time."
Lewis immediately held up the sign, he was here today for this extraordinary material, as long as the premium was not too severe, he could accept it.
However, at the very moment when Lewis raised his card, in front of him to the right, the tall and thin man also raised his card.
Lewis remembered him for buying the "thief's wallet".
