Chapter 120: Auctions and Curiosities

For this uninvited female mage, Xu Yue nodded and signaled that the other party was casual, and the female mage sat down on the chair opposite. Xu Yue looked around at this time, and at the moment when he sat down, there were already many people sitting at the table around him, relatively speaking, the table where he sat alone was relatively empty, so it was no wonder that this female mage would sit over.

Xu Yue was a little surprised by this situation, according to the situation he asked the waiter before, although it was indeed lunch time now, but generally speaking, the middle-level guests who could live basically did not like to eat in the large and public restaurants, so the flow of people in the restaurant here should be relatively sparse, but he didn't expect that it would be almost full for a while, which is not quite in line with the habits of those arrogant nobles and magicians who like to be clean in the middle-level warehouse.

As if there was a surprised expression on Xu Yue's face, the female mage asked with a somewhat curious expression, "Looking at your appearance, it seems that you don't know about the auction that will be held in a while?"

After listening to her words, Xu Yue put away the somewhat surprised expression on her face, nodded and admitted very calmly: "Auction? To be honest, it was my first time on a magic airship, so I didn't know there would be an auction here. ”

The female mage on the other side nodded somewhat incomprehensibly after hearing his words, and at the same time appreciated his honesty a little. Generally speaking, people with a little status in Talumia 6 rarely have never made a magic airship, unless it is a local bun tyrant from some remote places.

However, the female mage on the other side would not treat the other party as a tyrant from those small places just because Xu Yue said that she had never made a magic airship. Not to mention the identity of the other party's magician, the other party's aristocratic family crest representing the marquis proves that the other party is absolutely impossible to be just a tyrant who suddenly became rich. Although in fact, there is nothing wrong with taking Xu Yue into a mob.

"The magic airship is very fast, but it usually takes at least two days to reach the destination. It's a bit boring to just stay in your room during this time. Therefore, in order to relieve the boredom of the passengers, auctions, drinking parties, dances and other activities are often held on the magic airship, so that the passengers will not feel so bored and dull during the journey. Because the magic airship belongs to the magic guild, most of the items in the auction held on the airship here come from the magic guild, and many of them will appear some fine products. Therefore, the passengers on the airship are more welcome to the auction here. The auction starts after lunchtime, so many people usually go to the restaurant to get a good seat. Because the auction site is right next to the restaurant. The purple-robed sorceress explained with a smile.

After listening to his words, Xu Yue suddenly realized. It's no wonder that magicians and nobles who usually disappear one by one will appear in groups. He smiled and thanked the sorceress, and invited the friendly sorceress to dine with him.

After being invited, the sorceress didn't have much to say. Generously accepted Xu Yue's invitation. Asked the waiter to remove some of the dishes that had already been eaten from the table, and he ordered a table of exquisite dishes again. As for the dishes ordered by Xu Yue, even the female magician on the opposite side who looked like she shouldn't be bad was also slightly surprised in her heart, and the dishes on this table were the highest even in the entire hall.

The two talked while eating. Only then did Xu Yue know that the name of the female magician in the purple robe was Christina. And her destination happened to be the same as Xu Yue, both of them were Red Leaf City in the Zia Province of the Kingdom of Coles. Christina herself is a member of a noble family in the Momiji layer. When she was a teenager, she was sent to the Kingdom of Dallas to study magic because she was tested to have a magical talent, and this year she has passed the second-level magician evaluation of the magic academy in the Emerald City, so she can end her studies at the academy and return to the family.

The Magic Academy in Talemia's 6th year has almost no restrictions on the admission of the academy, as long as you have a magical talent that meets the admission standards of the academy, anyone who can afford to pay the tuition fee can enter the academy to study. For those who are particularly gifted, the college may also waive the tuition fees at the discretion of the college if they cannot afford it. Of course, this requires a service contract with the college for a period ranging from one to three years. These colleges are required to serve the College for the number of years specified in the College Service Contract upon graduation.

Of course, this contract is not harsh. Even for those magic apprentices from poor families, it can be said that it is very caring. After all, there is a salary during the service, and the amount is not low. The abundant magical resources of the academy itself can also make it very convenient for these students who serve the academy to learn magic.

However, generally speaking, if you enter the academy, depending on the level of the academy, you must at least reach the first level of magician or above to graduate, and you cannot leave the academy until you graduate. The Emerald City, the royal capital of the Kingdom of Dallas, is a holy place for magic, and the academy there is of a very high standard, so most of them require a second-level magician to graduate.

Christina began learning magic at the age of six, and now she is twenty-one years old, which is not a high level for a second-level mage. However, the other party came out of the academy of the Emerald City in the Holy Land of Magic, and he definitely threw Xu Yue off the previous Xu Yue in terms of magic knowledge. If it weren't for Xu Yue's use of a large number of 'inheritance orbs', which were almost cheating magic items, to enrich his magic knowledge, otherwise he would probably not have as much knowledge as Christina, a second-level mage.

After discussing some magical issues with Christina while eating, Xu Yue's heart was sweating. The other party is worthy of being a full-fledged magician who has studied in the magical holy land of the Emerald City for more than ten years, and not only has a solid foundation in magical knowledge, but also has a very wide range of knowledge. After just discussing with the other party for a short while, Xu Yue was almost stuck by a few questions from the other party. Fortunately, in the past two years, he has not only absorbed the 'Inheritance Orb' he obtained from Black Rock City, but also spared no expense to collect Inheritance Orbs below the third level everywhere. Coupled with more than two years of crazy study, it is only to be considered extensive. After racking his brains for a long time, he didn't make a fool of himself on the surface, but if he continued to discuss it, I'm afraid he would really be unable to parry.

I don't know the nervousness in Xu Yue's heart, who is very calm on the surface, but Christina on the other side is also very surprised in her heart at this time. Although her question just now seemed random, the scope of the matter was indeed quite wide, and many of the questions were questions that she, as an honor student who was almost a top student in the academy, could not understand in her daily life, but she didn't expect that the handsome magician who was only a third-level magician on the other side would give an answer lightly after thinking about it for a while. You must know that her problem has stumped several teachers of the third and fourth level magic academies.

Xu Yue, who didn't know that he was overestimated, and didn't know that he had overestimated the level of the magicians sent by the academy a lot, was secretly glad that the female magician opposite had finally shifted the topic from magical knowledge to the upcoming auction.

Although Christina can't leave the academy for a long time before graduating, she still goes home for a while every school vacation. This makes her take the magic airship three or four times a year, and for Xu Yue, a guy with black eyes, Christina picked up the situation of the airship auction she had participated in before, which made Xu Yue also interested in this auction.

Compared to the previous auctions in Black Rock City, the auction on the airship was much smaller in scale and the number of participants. After Xu Yue and Christina finished eating, the auction had already begun to enter, and soon the auction hall, which could only accommodate three or four hundred people, was already full.

Although the scale of the auction on the airship is small, the specifications are very high. The first auction item from the beginning was a magic necklace worth 30,000 gold coins. The people who came to the auction didn't care much about twenty or thirty thousand gold coins, and the quality of this magic necklace was relatively good, so it was quickly auctioned for forty thousand gold coins.

After that, the value of the things in the auction became higher and higher, but for Xu Yue, who had just obtained the scabbard of the suspected Sword of Kings, those magic items were not attractive. In the past two years, the magic items on his body have been updated several times, and now there are almost none below level five, and there are several magic equipment below level six. The likelihood of Level 7 items appearing in such a small temporary auction is very low, so Xu Yue doesn't pay much attention to the items in the auction house. It was only when two bottles of 'all-in-one potion' appeared that they took a shot and slapped them down.

"What's the matter?" Marquis Xu Yue has no interest in what is being auctioned here?" Seeing Xu Yue's not very positive appearance, Christina asked with a smile.

Xu Yue shook his head with a smile and said, "To be honest, the things here are all high-quality, but there are not many useful things for me, so I can't be interested." ”

Christina said with a smile: "It's just an auction of normal items now, and there will be an auction of strange things later." Those things are strange items excavated from various ruins, and even the professional appraisers of the Magic Guild don't know them, so some of them will be sold at auction. If you come across a treasure that is dusty from someone who knows the goods, you will have a good harvest. ”

After listening to Christina's words, Xu Yue also slightly raised her interest. Once the auction starts, there will be pictures and descriptions of the items to be auctioned on a special magic light screen. He flipped to a few pages of the strange object and browsed through the auction items above. Suddenly, after seeing one of the auction items among the strange things, Xu Yue's brain seemed to be struck by a bolt of lightning, and he was instantly stunned. (To be continued......)
