Breland is an ancient country with a long history and heritage, and it is also the central core area of the Klein continent, with large and carefully cultivated fields, and is the richest region of all the kingdoms.

Since it is a mage country, walking here, you may see the mage tower in almost any place.

Some stand in the core areas of large cities, serving as public facilities to maintain the safety of their localities; Some are located in remote wilderness and are the centers of activity for a small organization; Some will be built on some inaccessible lonely peaks, or in the harsh wasteland swamps, as the private room of a certain ** master.

Walking on the spacious avenue of the Breland Kingdom, while browsing the peaceful and beautiful natural scenery on both sides of the road, while looking at the high ** tower standing at the end of the sky in the distance, exuding a faint magical glow, is also a fresh and strange style.

Li Xun took the teleportation channel of Xilith and Yunu to this ideal country that the mage yearns for, and the landing point is of course the crow's mouth that has been reserved here early.

In the days since Hillis left, Crowbeak has been dutifully circling around the major cities of Breland, trying to find a way to spy on the secrets of the Mage Guild, but the most famous tower of the Seven Rings is that it never dares to get even a step closer. There are many mage towers of different styles and styles that are watched by a magic circle, and if a mage discovers its anomaly, or if its peculiar constitution arouses the interest of a mage, it will not be able to escape from there.

The special auction prepared by the Thieves Guild was arranged to be held in Tectus, the capital of the Breland Kingdom, and the early stage of the campaign has been vigorously carried out for more than two months, and according to the news from Elena, the shape is very good.

In the history of the Klein Continent, there has never been a strange thing that can nourish the soul. When it comes to nourishing the soul, one can't help but think of the "soul prism" created by the creatures of the abyss in the lower realm. However, at the beginning of its creation, this "soul prism" could only be used as a specific delicacy exclusive to abyssal creatures, and the fragile life of the main plane could not bear the impurities of the turbid almost soul poison inside.

In fact, in the final analysis, the soul prism is a combination of soul fragments extracted from different powerful beings, and it may contain the most profound and unforgettable memory fragments of a certain creature in a certain period of time. If it's just a simple person's memory, it's easy to say, but most soul prisms are a hodgepodge of dozens of soul fragments, and the mixed personal experiences, personal emotions, life perceptions, and hearts of different races and genders are intertwined together, which is enough to support the fragile soul of the absorber.

Even if the absorber's soul is strong enough to survive the impact of too many complicated memories, it will pollute the purity of his soul, and it is easy for the absorber to be confused in a trance whether it is his own memory or the memory of someone else that suddenly appears in his mind. Without a strong **, without a tenacious soul, there is simply no ability to withstand the erosion of this soul poison, and sooner or later it will embark on the inevitable path of schizophrenia, spiritual exhaustion and death.

Many mainland scholars have pointed out that many of the chaotic and unpredictable strange behaviors of abyssal creatures may be related to their perennial contact with soul prisms. A dozen or dozens of noisy soul-shattering guys who have a dozen or so many soul-shattering minds in their minds seem to have a hard time behaving normally.

In this case, the appearance of the soul crystal fills this gap that has lasted for tens of thousands of years.

In the early stage, the Thieves Guild released a small amount of soul crystals, which were tested and evaluated by some great mages, and were given a very high evaluation. In these soul crystals, there is only pure soul power, and no memory fragments that are stored as impurities have been found, which is the best nourishing wonder for the soul wounded.

For a while, the good reputation of the soul crystal quickly spread among the mage group, making some people crazy about it.

As a mage, he has been immersed in all kinds of dangerous magic all year round, and it is inevitable that he will be eroded by **, and his spirit and even his soul will be darkly wounded. In the past, I could only rely on stimulating the potential of my body to slowly make up for this kind of soul wound, which often outweighed the losses and would damage my progress on the path of mage, but this can only be the case when it comes to life and death. Few people dare to try to absorb the soul prism, after all, that would be pushing themselves step by step towards the evil abyssal creatures.

Now that they heard about the appearance of such a strange thing as the soul crystal, those mages who had been traumatized on their souls and had been secretly cut off from the way forward immediately went crazy. What could be more important to a mage than to reopen his own path?

In a short period of time, the importance of this auction has risen again and again, and the already expensive 500 entry qualifications have rolled upwards in less than half a month, from the initial 30 gold coins to the current 2,000 gold coins. Even so, there is no price in the market, and it is difficult to find a ticket. Many high-level mages and even big & mages directly went to the headquarters of the Thieves Guild and stole most of the ticket sources from there with half buying and half robbing.

As a result, what was originally an auction for the upper echelons of the Tectus elite changed its nature in an instant. The tickets that the ordinary, usually high-spirited, were often bought by the visiting mages and did not have the opportunity to participate in such a grand event. The big business groups and big nobles who rushed to hear the news from all over the country were shocked to find that they, who were usually the VIPs on the table, couldn't even step through the door of the auction house at this moment.

For a while, the powerful people from all over the world, who had a hard time but had no way, and the middle and high-level mages who had no way out, immediately blocked the auction house and strongly demanded an explanation.

Although there was an estimate, the high-level leaders of the Thieves Guild, who never expected it to develop to such a point, were also dumbfounded. As the organizers, they have also been under tremendous pressure this month. All kinds of soft grinding and hard bubbles, all kinds of false words and intimidation, those who want to buy this batch of soul crystals in advance, and those who want to know the source of soul crystals...... All these things are going on to make them have a nervous breakdown.

What's even more terrifying is that from the mouth of a great mage who came to visit, it was revealed that there was a "big man" who was also interested in these strange things.

The "big man" in the mouth of the big & mage, so can there be anyone else besides the legendary mage?

Legendary Mage!

With the word legend, these so-called high-level groups of thieves guilds can make their legs and stomachs spin, not to mention that they are still in a country controlled by legendary mages.

With a sigh, several high-level leaders of the Thieves Guild had no choice but to burrow into a secret room located under the headquarters, and secretly began to contact the distant places.

A day later, three days before the auction began, the high-level officials of the Thieves' Guild jointly met with His Majesty the King of the Brightland Kingdom, and after discussion, it was decided that the auction would be jointly held by the Brightland Royal Family and the Thieves' Guild, and the auction venue was set at the Fog Forest Manor, which was exclusively used by the royal family. The number of admission qualifications has also been increased from the original 500 to 1,200, which basically meets the needs of most powerful people and mages.

Although the number of visitors has skyrocketed, it is still only a small head compared to the surging crowd, but with the name of the royal family here, those who want to stir up trouble will inevitably weigh their own weight. The 1,200 admission qualifications, deducting the needs of those big magnates, big business groups, and mages, leave little left for the minor nobles and ordinary mages.

Thus, a secret battle began.

Many of the Brightland magnates, who were not interested in this, suddenly found that if they could not make it to this auction, they would be seen by outsiders as a sign of personal incompetence and the decline of the family, and severely damage the confidence of outsiders in their own family. Suddenly urgent, they immediately joined the ranks of chasing the admission qualifications, which made the already hot underground market detonate in an instant.

If the formal way was not obtained, many people started to think crookedly, some cheats and abductions, and even murder and goods also occurred one after another, and the entire Tektus seemed to be in turmoil. In the end, the Kingdom Guardian Army and the Kingdom Mage Regiment were dispatched to suppress it, and this turbid current was calmed down.

It was in this treacherous and turbulent situation that Li Xun took the two girls into Tectus leisurely in a carriage.

As soon as he entered the vicinity of Tektus, Li Xun sensed this treacherous atmosphere, and even the interrogation at the city gate was particularly severe. If it weren't for the young mage's high-level mage badge, it would be a question of whether he could enter Tektus City smoothly.

When the young mage tried to find a hotel to stay in, he was deflated continuously. All the hotels and inns were full, and there was no spare room at all, and it was useless for him to even take out the high-level mage badge, because the people who chartered these rooms were all well-known high-level mages and great mages.

With inexplicable horror, Li Xun could only ask for help from the local thieves guild according to the address given by Elena, and the result was unexpectedly enthusiastic. When several high-ranking members of the Thieves' Guild heard of the arrival of the young mage, they immediately joined forces and introduced him into a secret room of the Thieves' Guild to discuss again.

From the mouths of these thieves guild leaders, Li Xun learned that the culprit who caused Tektus City to become what it is now is actually himself, no, the batch of soul crystals that he planned to auction. Although he had overestimated the value of the soul crystal as much as possible, he still did not guess that the first appearance of such a strange thing would cause such a huge sensation.

Turning his head to think about it, Li Xun felt understood again.

In my mind, this is a tonic that can compensate for the lack and damage of the soul, but for those who have been suffering from soul trauma and have been haunted by it for many years, it is a good medicine that can prolong their lives. Two different perceptions lead to a dislocation of disparity in value.

If the soul crystal is invested in the Klein Continent in large quantities, it may also return to a rational price in a few years and become a hard currency such as magic potions and spirit potions. But now, without knowing the specific amount, whoever grabs it first can save his own life, and a seller's market has been formed, and the people who participate in the robbery are all the real wealthy high-spending groups in the Klein Continent - mages.
