Chapter 314: Auction 3

When Gehr and Serena entered the carriage, the ghost gnome, who was sitting outside as a coachman, snapped his whip and shouted at the horses to run.

The two groups of horses in front of the carriage with a few strange short wings on their backs suddenly began to run in small steps, and the hooves of the horses stepped briskly on the grass, making a dull sound.

In the carriage, Dilansina handed a pale yellow parchment to Gehr, who was sitting opposite, and knocked on the wall of the car, and the halo emitted by the lighting crystals embedded in the roof of the car suddenly became brighter, so that she could better read the words on the paper.

"The fair is divided into four areas: finished product area, material area, knowledge area and slave area, this year because there are wars in many places, there are a lot of loot, so this time there is a new exotic goods area, this is just the details of the goods that I know here, and we need to see it after we get there. ”

Gell took the parchment, the content was not very much, but after a little tour, he handed it to Serena beside her, and asked her to read it slowly.

"Spoils of war?

"Well, I heard that some of them are, but more of them should be from the xenomorph kingdom of the Muela Abyss, where news came not long ago that the army ahead had won a big victory and had a lot of captures, and a batch had been sent back. Dilansina explained.

"Hmm. Gehr nodded, not saying anything, but he had already taken the information to heart.

After exchanging opinions on the situation of this trade fair, the two shifted the topic to the knowledge of spells again and continued to talk.

And after looking at the trade list for a while and listening to a conversation between Gehr and Dilansina, Serena was far more energetic than the two of them, and her whole body fell asleep on Gehr's body unconsciously.

I don't know how long we talked. Gehr suddenly felt unusually quiet around him, and the whirring wind and the chirping of some night birds that had been around the carriage had disappeared at some point. Only the crisp sound of horses' hooves still echoed ahead.

Gerra drove the window, sure enough. The sparse starlight outside was completely gone, replaced by a black stone wall.

The stone wall was completely dark in this environment, and the uneven surface was wet, reflecting a faint glimmer of light from the light leaking from the carriage.

Looking at the stone wall that kept falling backwards, Geer felt it carefully, and the road on which the carriage was traveling was not flat, but slowly extending upward, but at a very small angle. It's easy to ignore if you're not careful.

"Here it is...... Underground?" Gehr was a little unsure.

"No, it's the belly of the mountain. Dilansina smiled, "The location of this kind of fair is carefully chosen, and in order to ensure safety, it is different every time, and this time it is placed in the belly of the mountain of the mugwort rift. Dilansina continued slowly, "By the way, you haven't seen it here, but the interior of these outer mountains of the Aishi Rift has been hollowed out, and many hidden wizarding organizations are distributed here. The roads inside are well-developed, so it's easy to get lost if no one leads the way, but we have a special invitation card that will automatically guide the carriage on the way. Don't worry about that. ”

"It's a mystery. Gell glanced at the stone wall outside the car a few more times before retracting his gaze, "Can't the wizard organization here?"

"There are always wizards who don't like to come into contact with other people, or because of special research needs. Instead, they like the dark and quiet environment, and they can also monitor the movement of underground creatures by the way. ”

"Creatures of the Underground?" Ger was a little puzzled by the term.

"You know that. The mugwort rift is made to be very suitable for our environment, but the same. It also attracts some other xenomorphs who like this environment. This kind of creature is often ferocious, strong, let them exist zài will bring great damage to the mugwort fissure, if it appears from the outside, because the mugwort fissure has a very comprehensive defense system, it is easier to detect and prevent, but some will be difficult to monitor the underground blind spot invasion, it is difficult to detect in advance, this creature is collectively called underground creatures. Dilansina explained.

"I see. Gell nodded knowingly.

As time passed, it was not clear how long the carriage had been driving in this dark corridor, and after the three of them had a few simple meals on the carriage, they finally found that the stone wall outside the carriage began to become farther away, and it seemed that the corridor was beginning to become wider.

"It's almost there. ”

With Dilansina's words, a glimmer of light began to appear in front of the carriage, and Gehr looked out to see that small pieces of illumination crystals began to appear on the stone walls, although they were still a little dim, but they were much better than before.

Call!

Suddenly, there was a bright light ahead, and suddenly there was a light in front of me. Gehr found that he had reached a cavern large enough to fit a town with a spare.

In the middle of the cave, a transparent round pipe that requires at least dozens of people to hold it vertically runs through the ground and the roof of the cave, and inside the round pipe is a scorching white flame, illuminating the entire cave as if it were day, and even the circle of threaded paths on the cave wall and the pedestrians walking slowly on it can be clearly seen.

Sigh!!

The Phantom Gnome slowed down slowly, following the markers on the ground and continuing to turn left, stopping in a designated open space.

Gehr pulled Serena out of the carriage, and suddenly a rather cold aura rushed to his face, and when he looked around, he found that there were many carriages parked around, and many people got out of the carriage and walked in the direction of the pillar of fire.

At this time when Dilansina had disembarked from the carriage, Gell saw several more carriages coming from different directions and stopping in the clearing, and it seemed that there were many more roads leading to this place, and there were not a few.

"Go this way. ”

Dilansina led the two of them towards the pillar of fire, and the two ghost gnomes in the driver's position quickly took out a box from the back of the carriage and carried one of the boxes on one side, closely following behind the three people in front of them.

As he walked, Gehr paid attention to his surroundings.

The ground is not too much retouched, it is simply shoveled flat on the rock surface and walked on it. You can also feel the rough rock surface under your feet. The top of the cave is estimated to be nearly ten stories tall, probably because of the design. A large circle of the roof of the cave was not illuminated by the light of the pillar of fire, but was hidden in a dim shadow. Gehr could barely see what seemed to be some metal pole stuck in the top that looked like a bird's frame, and from time to time he could see flashes of red light from there, as if there was something left in the shadows, watching the people below.

Approaching the pillar of fire, Gehr found that it was not as hot as he had imagined the flames to be, perhaps because of the glass-like compartment outside, and when he got close to the pillar of fire, he only felt a slight warmth, which made people feel quite comfortable.

Follow Dilansina to the back of the pillar of fire. Gehr saw a stone hut built next to a pillar of fire.

There were no doors, walls, or other obstructions on the side of the stone hut facing them, so that they could see the situation inside very easily—a counter-shaped stone table was blocking the entrance to the stone house, and two old men in black robes were standing behind the stone tables, and behind them were two firmly closed stone doors, on which were carved a huge dark red rune, and the rune was faintly fluorescent.

In front of them stood several other people, all dressed in gray apprentice robes, who seemed to be standing in line.

Soon, one of the apprentices walked through the passage by the stone table. When he came to the two stone gates, he slammed into them as if he hadn't seen them. The next moment, I saw a circle of ripples on the surface of the collision between the stone gate and the apprentice, and the apprentice directly penetrated the stone gate. Disappear.

The three of them stayed at the back of the line, and waited for about a few minutes before it was their turn.

Each paid a hundred spars. They all received a metal card similar to the academy card, and then asked the shadow dwarf who was following him to come up and hand the spar in the box to the old man behind the stone table. After counting it, he added the corresponding numbers to Gehr's card.

Letting the two ghost gnomes go back to the carriage and wait, the three of them walked to the stone gate and bumped into it without hesitation.

Airplanes~~

Gehr only felt that the scene in front of him was distorted for an instant, and the next moment, his eyes suddenly turned into a bright yellow light, and he found that he had appeared on the edge of a large theater-like venue, and above his head was a silver vaulted dome inlaid with dense sunlight crystals, and the bright yellow light came from these precious gems, constantly emitting circles of light around him.

Looking left and right, Dilansina and Serena appeared beside him almost at the same time.

The whole venue is circular, the whole is a circle, and a circle of red high-backed sofas rises outward in a stepped manner around the stage in the middle, so that everyone can see the stage clearly, but obviously these positions are only for ordinary guests, surrounding the four walls of the venue, one after another boxes are distributed there, there are three floors, and that is where the real power is located.

Dilansina's background didn't seem to be enough for her to sit in the box, and the three of them looked around the room, and found that many of the apprentices had arrived before them, and they were scattered throughout the room, and after observing for a while, they came to a seat at the back and sat down.

The venue was sparsely populated, and there were only two or three hundred people seated in the seats of thousands of people, and none of the lights in the box were lit, and there were staff members in bright yellow uniforms walking back and forth on the stage from time to time, looking like they were making preparations.

Not long after they sat down, a young girl wearing the same uniform as the one on the stage came over and respectfully handed each of them a detailed list of the upcoming auctions.

Gell looked at the catalogue in his hand, which was a little more detailed than what Dilansina had provided before.

The three of them chatted casually while eating the refreshments provided by the exhibition.

After about an hour, some more apprentices came one after another, and finally reached the level of about half of the seats in the venue, and the boxes finally lit up.

The lights in the theater suddenly dimmed, and the group looked up, only to find that the luster of the daylight crystals on it had dimmed a lot, and it looked like the auction was about to begin. (To be continued......)
