Chapter 11: Temptation

Lin Li walked into the bustling Imperial Auction House and went straight to the consultation counter.

Unlike that day, there are a lot of staff at work today.

He swept around, and it just so happened that Rowan was on duty again today, and Lin Li didn't know other staff, so he walked over.

Rowan raised his head and saw the face in front of him clearly, and his face was suddenly full of helplessness and bitterness.

Ten days ago, this young man, well, was a little too young, Rowan thought.

With such a green cheek, he looked like he was only eighteen years old.

"When I was eighteen years old, I was probably still attacking ordinary alchemists. Rowan sat there and thought for a moment, not even paying attention to the work at hand.

From any point of view, Rowan's bitterness and regret make sense.

Luo Wen, he is not an ordinary alchemist who eats and waits for death.

He was a disciple of the Great Alchemist.

Perhaps, in Lin Li's opinion, this is nothing, the great alchemist at the peak of the era is like a cabbage, but at this time, Brand, the great alchemist is the most powerful alchemist.

They represent power and status, and the disciples they fancy are all very talented alchemy apprentices.

Rowan is only in his 20s this year, and he is proud to be among the ranks of alchemists at a young age.

But just a few days ago, because of his own mistakes, he was scolded by Joseph's Great Alchemist, and after that, although his teacher didn't say anything, he could also sensitively feel the change in the teacher's attitude towards him.

This left him at a loss and a little lost.

"Luo Wen Alchemist?" Lin Li was a little strange, why did this Luo Wen seem to be a little abnormal when he saw him.

The expression on his face was sometimes lost, sometimes helpless, his eyes were dull, and he didn't reply to his words for a long time.

"Ah, Master William, I'm sorry. No matter how much Rowan feels about it, it is by no means the place now.

Work first, if the teacher or others see it, maybe it won't be like just hanging yourself indifferently now, but just let yourself go.

I tried my best to put away the loss on my face, and although I was bitter in my heart, I still stood up.

"Hello, welcome to today's month-end auction, you are our valued guest, the chief auctioneer has already explained, we will deal with any needs you have as soon as possible. Rowan saluted.

"I do need to make sure that I don't have enough money today. Lin Li said.

"Okay, I'll ask Joseph Auctioneer to come over. ”

5 minutes later - the auctioneer Joseph came to the room out of breath.

"Hello, Master William. ”

"Hello, Auctioneer Joseph. Lin Li politely replied.

Lin Li remembers to respect teachers. A handful of old men, listening to your request, panting and running over to you, and then holding the master's shelf, Lin Li felt that he couldn't accept this matter.

Obediently greeted the old man Joseph, and Lin Li talked about his request.

Because Lin Li's funds are not enough, after all, if it weren't for Lin Li's appearance, William would still be in the dilemma of being a disciple by now.

Lin Li hadn't started a lot of money-making activities yet, and he only had a bottle of divine elixir in his hand.

Therefore, he needs enough funds to bid on today's alchemy materials to configure the balance potion and enhance his affinity for the elements.

Fortunately, these materials are not too expensive, but the competition is somewhat fierce.

Joseph had listened to Lin Li's words with a serious face, but after roughly understanding Lin Li's intentions, his serious brows for many years were loosened, and his face was full of smiles, as if he had won the battle.

He vouched for Lin Li: "Master Lin, you can rest assured of this. Our Imperial Auction House, not to mention a good reputation, is also a good signboard. Today you are our guest and we can do our best to provide you with enough funds. ”

In the territory of the Imperial Auction House, there are really few forces that dare to compete with them in terms of wealth.

The Imperial Auction House is already rich and eats the subsidies given by the Empire, not to mention that with so many people entering the auction hall every day, the daily draw is a huge wealth.

Joseph's face was full of excitement, and he continued: "Law Master Lin, the divine potion you want to auction this time should be able to fetch a very high price under our operation, you don't know how many people outside are curious about the origin of this potion. ”

"Thank you Joseph Auctioneer and the Imperial Auctioneer. Lin Li responded with a bright smile.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, that's what we should do, hehe. ”

The two foxes, one big and one small, chatted with each other, obviously their stomachs were clearly like mirrors, but they also made a polite soft breeze and drizzle.

Before this conversation began, Joseph was full of confidence, after all, in his opinion, Lin Li was just an eighteen-year-old young child.

To deal with this kind of fledgling child, he has a full grasp of the rhythm, so as to obtain information step by step and learn more details.

However, when facing Lin Li, he had a strong uneasiness, as if sitting in front of him was an old fox who was even older than himself.

He prides himself on being an effective negotiation skill, which was easily resolved by Lin Li, and this was Lin Li's subconscious reaction.

For example, Joseph changed the subject twice during the chat, "This bottle of divine potion is simply the best bottle I have ever seen in my life, I don't know what material Master Lin used? Is it added with sacred leaves? But such a precious material, I can't think of where you got it, haha." ”

This is what he deliberately asked in order to test Lin Li's alchemy level. What's more, he did have some doubts about Lin Li's strength, generally speaking, ordinary mages would never have a bottle of potion close to the level of a master.

Lin Li was absent-minded, listened to this question, and pouted: "Joseph Auctioneer said with a smile, how could I get such a high-grade material as a sacred leaf, but in any case, the divine elixir, what stands out is a sacred." And it's not just the sacred leaves that have the divine breath. ”

It is true that Lin Li has never used the Sacred Leaves, and the divine aura of this bottle of potion comes from the cheap material "Golden Wood Leaves".

Although there is indeed a difference between the two and their functions are not the same, the divine aura cannot be faked.

It's just that the alchemists of this era didn't think about how to use the golden wood leaves, and because of the shortcomings of the golden wood leaves, they included it in the cheap magic materials......

The more they talked, the more relaxed Lin Li became, but Joseph's auctioneer broke out in a cold sweat.

An 18-year-old alchemy genius, with an unfathomable background, and a cunning comparable to a centenarian, this and this, a human being, this is too strong!

In this process, he mentioned Lin Li's background and inheritance, but without asking a word, he asked about the knowledge of alchemy, and was thrown back with a sentence.

Joseph thinks the world must have gone mad!
