Chapter 56: The Crisis Comes

In an auction, everyone has mixed tastes, some people are surprised, some people are excited, some people are shocked and some people feel sour.

Arthur: They have seen the final lot and can only leave after they have delivered their own lots.

The finale was a space ring with an interior space of 10 square meters, with a starting price of 180,000 gold coins, and was sold for 250,000 gold coins after dozens of rounds of competition. The staggering price made Arthur hold his wrist for a long time, and it turned out that the most valuable thing was always in his hands.

There was also a small episode when it came time to deliver the lots, Arthur spent 325,000 gold coins to auction five lots, but ignored the fact that the auction house would add a 10% service fee on top of that. Otherwise, Ziling would not have worked so the stage to tempt buyers to keep raising prices.

When the final amount of 357,500 gold coins came out, Arthur's heart was dripping blood.

When leaving, Arthur glanced at the plaque of the Xiaoyun Mansion a few times, this is the gold cave and the bloodsucking cave!

Arthur, who once had 380,000 gold coins, came out with 30,000 gold coins left, and he was a little unbalanced in his heart that he only bought himself a pair of sixth-level combat boots.

......

After returning to the post house, Golly was lying on the bed and could not fall asleep. The purple gold pendant was worn on his chest, and the cloud crane cloak was covered with a burst of warmth on his body. The 200,000 gold coins were all given by Arthur, doesn't that guy mean anything else?

There was a soft knock on the door.

When she saw Arthur outside the door, Gori's heart beat faster, and her face instantly turned crimson, "It's so late, what's wrong?"

"Come to your house and say. Arthur whispered a little weakly.

Golly dodges and lets Arthur into the house.

When Golly didn't expect it, Arthur closed the door and grabbed her arm.

"Golly. The two looked at each other, and Arthur leaned closer and whispered.

If Golly had kicked out normally, today she closed her eyes and opened her lips slightly.

"Golly, can you lend me some money?"

Golly's body shook, and then instinctively raised her knee.

A scream rang out from Golly's room.

Arthur bent over and clutched his lower abdomen in pain, "If you don't borrow it, you won't borrow it, what are you doing?"

"You came to my house in the middle of the night just to borrow money from me?"

"What do you think I'm trying to do?" Arthur asked rhetorically.

Golly's face turned red, and she quickly changed the subject: "Why did you suddenly borrow money?"

"It was Becky who ran over to borrow 20,000 gold coins from me just now. ”

"If you don't have you, don't promise others, be a good person in front of others, but come to me behind your back to borrow money. Golly said angrily.

"I still have 20,000 gold coins, and I borrow money for other purposes. Arthur began to explain to Golly seriously, "Remember to give Becky their Python horn? The Austin Grand Magician introduced Becky to a weapons shop, using that horn as the main material to make a level 9 wand, but it still needs to pay 20,000 gold coins for accessories and manual fees. I still have some golden scales on the ninth-level thunder python in my bracelet that I haven't sold, so I'm going to hitchhike and ask that weapon store to help make an excellent-grade half-body armor. The two things cost a total of 40,000 gold coins, and I am still 10,000 gold coins short. ”

Arthur came out of Golly's room with a wry smile on his face as he clutched his lower abdomen. This time I really returned to the pre-liberation period overnight, and not only spent all the money I had accumulated over the years, but also owed Golly 10,000 gold coins.

Arthur suddenly noticed that there were several eyes in the darkness that were always on him. The screams that came from Golly's room just now naturally alarmed everyone in the courtyard.

"Don't get me wrong, it's not what you think!"

Arthur was answered in the darkness by a few meaningful hey laughs.

......

The Sanctuary of Light, in an underground chamber.

An old man in a dark red priest's robe hunched over a desk full of files and papers.

The old man suddenly raised his head, revealing a wrinkled thin cheek and a sinister look in his eyes, and swept all the files on the table to the ground with a wave of his hand.

The two priests and the knight in silver armor sitting on the left and right sides of his table stood up in fright.

"Incompetent! After so many days, no one has been caught, everyone is surrounded and the other party can escape, and the Pope is very disappointed in our Inquisition. The old man said in a low, hoarse voice.

The old man is none other than Moronte, the inquisitor who is in charge of the Inquisition and calls himself the Church's guard dog.

The black-robed chief inquisition on Morente's left, Oza explained softly: "Sanctuary, the other party has obviously laid out for a long time, and the line from the side of the Seventh Highness is completely broken, and the people involved this time are all members of the imperial family, and our usual detection methods have been greatly restricted. ”

"I don't want to explain, I just have to catch a dark mage for me and burn him to death, no matter what you do. ”

Eza immediately replied in a cold voice, "I see, you and the Pope will definitely get a dark mage. ”

"Sanctuary, I've got a clue here. The white-robed priest next to Öza suddenly added. This man was short and stocky, with a mysterious smile on his lips, and he was Thorn, the head priest of Light, who was on the same level as Erza.

"Pastor Thorn, though blunt, hope this is the first good news I've heard these days. ”

"The intelligence department I am in charge of analyzed the information of everyone who participated in this spring hunt, and found that there is a member of the hunting team of His Highness Eleventh named Arthur, which is exactly the same as the information reported by the Isaac Diocesan Inquisition some time ago. ”

Cardinal Morent's eyes lit up, "Tell me more about it. ”

"The Diocese of Isaac has seen the figure of this Arthur in several incidents related to dark mages in recent years. Because there is no direct evidence, he has not arrested anyone for fear that the conflict with Strachage will become public. While Fast was secretly preparing for the capture operation, this Arthur suddenly left the kingdom of Isaac and went to Arantis. ”

The more Thorn spoke, the more excited he became, "As soon as Arthur arrived in the imperial capital, there was an outbreak of necromantic creatures in the royal hunting grounds, and his hunting party became the only team in this incident without any losses. ”

Oza suddenly answered from the side: "Priest Thorn reminded me that we rounded up a few dark mages a few days ago, and it was because of the appearance of a few unexpected people that the roundup failed. Although there is no direct evidence, it is very likely that the people who appeared on Hotel Street that day were His Highness Eleven and that Arthur. ”

"Now that the clue is so clear, why haven't you brought this Arthur back yet? ”

Thorn hesitated slightly, "This Arthur is one of the members of the Isaac Kingdom's participation in the Imperial Elite Academy Tournament this time, and he has a close relationship with His Highness Eleven. ”

The Moronte Sanctuary snorted softly, "Fast and Southis are afraid of Streich in Isaac, and we still need to care about Streich's attitude when we arrive in Arantis? ”

A crisis of unprecedented magnitude has come to Arthur Hood......
