Chapter 45 On the Mountains and the Sea

After a small episode, it was soon time for the midsummer revelry.

The atmosphere of revelry inside and outside the dark blue is full of excitement, and many people wear exaggerated and colorful costumes belonging to their races, wear colorful wigs, and even draw different patterns on their faces. Barrels of wine are transported in horse-drawn carts into the deep blue zone, where they become empty barrels at a surprising rate. The deep blue is lit up again, and countless fireworks decorate the night sky into a colorful fantasy world. Everywhere was the smell of campfires, singing, and food, and on this day, it seemed that there was no sorrow in the world at all.

And on the upper floor of the dark blue main tower, the real magnates are still very sober. Because the real auction is taking place here, the legendary mage's private collection is revealed. This was an amazing event, the legendary mage took out so many things, and the rarity of the attributes, far surpassed the previous midsummer carnival, and once again made the nobles present have a new understanding of Su Hailun's strength. [Search for the latest update.]

The most striking thing is undoubtedly the complete dragon skeleton placed in the center of the hall, around which several magicians are circling around, and their salivating appearance directly reveals their identities. But the most precious thing is not the dragon remains, the heart of an ancient beast from the savage wilderness displayed at the top, half a pair of abyss demon lord's hand armor, and a complete soft skin under the neck of a fire dragon are all rare items that can be estimated at millions.

The rules of the auction are simple, a sign is erected in front of each lot, on which the intending purchaser writes the price and identity he or she has prepared. If there is a higher bid, continue to write in the upper column. No one bids until the end of the auction. Of course, if someone in particular needs an item and can't wait for the auction to end, they can open the bidding to the whole audience, and if no one is vying for it, then the item is his. Although the entire auction hall has an area of an astonishing 13,000 square meters, it only takes a level 10 warrior to make a sound of the whole hall. The great nobles who were able to enter this auction hall, even if they didn't have this strength, there must be hundreds or thousands of tenth-level warriors under their hands.

The powerful nobles who owned the territory were not most interested in magical materials such as dragon bones and dragon skins, but were attracted by the ore samples on the four-story circular platform on the west side of the hall. For the field nobles who could deploy private armies, the role of dragon bones and dragon skins was far less important than that of a few tons or even hundreds of kilograms of rare metals. The former is nothing more than one or two precious magic items, while the latter means magic armor, heavy weapons, and enchanted arrows in formed units. Pair that with the right warriors, and you'll have an army in no time.

The powerful are somewhat disgusted by the strength of individual forces, but they are extremely enthusiastic about building large-scale armies.

Of course, it is impossible for all of this bulk of raw ore to be piled up in the exhibition hall, so only a few samples are placed. Deep Blue has always had an excellent reputation in terms of supply, whether it is through guò auctions or daily sales channels, the quality of samples and bulk ores is almost the same. The nobles gathered in groups in front of the booth, studying the fineness and grade of the ores, and the well-connected families would exchange words with each other, while looking at the representatives of the families who were not their allies out of the corner of their eyes. They will carefully read the description of the goods, in addition to quality, quantity is also one of the key points of attention, after careful calculation and repeated scrutiny, carefully write down the price one by one.

The atmosphere in the hall was warm but restrained, it was still early in the morning, and now it was only an undercurrent, and it was not yet time for the bayonets to see red. However, the quantity and quality of the auction items, which obviously exceeded everyone's expectations, still ignited the faint smell of gunpowder early. In particular, the unexpectedly large number and variety of ores made one wonder how many mineral-rich planes the legendary mages had captured in the past few years.

Not dazzled by the abundance of exhibits in the hall, Stevenson maintained his graceful demeanor, exchanged a few words of greeting with representatives of the allied families, and confidently walked to the dragon item exhibit. Behind him, in addition to the original warriors and magicians, Duke Solam also sent two senior appraisal experts, as well as two high-level warriors above level sixteen, which were not much different from the level 18 of the Sacred Domain powerhouse.

After many days of good communication with the black gold assistant, Stevenson already had a goal that he must achieve, that is, the dragon neck skin.

Yes, it's the legendary fire dragon, not the red dragon!

It is not easy to slay the dragon, the red dragon has the strongest body in the middle of the five-color dragon, and the fire dragon actually belongs to a branch of the red dragon in the strict sense, and its own number is very rare, but its strength is far stronger than the red dragon. If the red dragon that has lived for more than a thousand years is extremely powerful, then it will also be promoted to a fire dragon by chance.

If you want to compare it with the strength level of the human powerhouse, take Duke Solam as an example, he has just entered the legend, and fighting with an adult fire dragon is only a matter of life and death. And the team of constructed knights led by Santa Cruz will be swept away directly. Therefore, the Solam family has to rely on their own force to get a complete fire dragon neck skin, and the possibility is almost zero. Because of this, Santa Cruz once formulated a fire magic pattern construction plan based on the skin of the fire dragon, and the overall effect was the best, but it was the first to be rejected.

Stevenson stood by the sign for a long time, carefully studying the densely packed and even illustrated descriptions, not sparing a single word. By visual inspection alone, this skin is better than expected, much larger and intact than the average fire dragon skin, and the fire dragon is also thousands of years old, so the quality of the neck skin is far from being comparable to the little red dragon that has only lived for hundreds of years.

The first paragraph of the explanation board is full of heroic deeds about how the legendary mage fought the fire dragon. This is what can be skipped as usual, after three processes by historians, art masters, and black gold, anyone who wants to speculate on the skills of a legendary mage based on this story is doomed to tragedy. The second paragraph is very important, this part is the relevant number of the fire dragon jù and combat power, according to convention, the credibility of the dark blue can guarantee the accuracy of these descriptions. And the last paragraph, which is just as important, is the environmental description of the dragon's habitat.

There are already two lines of small print on the auction record, and the bids are one million and one million and fifty thousand gold coins respectively, and it should be two strong individuals. No matter how strong a strong individual is without the support of forces, his strength and financial resources are difficult to compare with a big nobleman like Solam, of course, Su Helen is an exception.

After listening to the detailed explanation of the expert experts, although Stevenson tried to keep his facial expression calm, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitch slightly. This dragon neck is too important to him, as long as he has it, Santa Cruz will be able to create a powerful second-order demonic pattern structure, and then the snow hare's victory over the winter wolf will no longer be a legend!

Seeing this dragon neck skin, Stevenson felt as if he had seen the door to the dragon vein constructor!

He groaned for a moment and asked his men for a magic pen, ready to write down the first amount. After thinking about it, Stevenson decided to set the price at 1.3 million, and then 200,000 plus one. In this way, he can show his strength and determination, but not be overly ostentatious, so as not to be seen by people with ulterior motives who are urgent, and deliberately participate in it, artificially raising the price.

At this moment, there was a sudden silence in the gradually noisy hall, and almost all the powerhouses who had exceeded the eighteenth order turned their heads at the same time and looked at the entrance of the hall. An invisible and blazing wind poured in from the entrance of the hall, filling the entire hall in an instant. The temperature in the hall had risen several degrees, the warm and humid climate had suddenly become dry and hot, and the air was filled with the smell of desolation and slaughter, and many people had even heard the roar of faint beasts.

This is an extension of pure power, and it seems that it is only a small change in the climate in the hall, but the area of this hall is so huge, and the transformation is completed in an instant, and the power behind this is extremely terrifying when you think about it. And although this aura is violent, it does not carry the slightest sense of killing intent and coercion, showing that the other party is not intentional, but just a natural extension of the momentum.
