44. New doors have been opened
It is a circular hall with a radius of about three meters and a dome five meters high. Even if it's just a random thing out of this hall to sell, it can be considered a priceless thing, but everything is an embellishment here.
Throughout the hall, only pale blue light could be seen flickering slightly along certain lines.
However, if you look closely, you can see that these patterns are actually a large magic array. It's just that this magic array has not been activated at this moment, so many things naturally can't be seen in their true form, and those light blue brilliance are just the magic fluctuations that are overflowing from the magic stones that are charging the magic array. It's just that in this way, it adds a bit of weirdness and mystery to the entire rotunda.
In this hall, there are no tables or chairs.
However, around the hall, there are more than dozens of transparent glasses.
Those standing in the glass cannot see the other side, but those who are inside the glass can clearly see the situation in the exhibition hall.
This is a special type of glass called the "Magic Mirror", which automatically absorbs all the light reflected on one side and blocks it, so the person standing on the back side naturally cannot see the scene behind the glass.
It's just that when Sean saw this glass, he pouted disdainfully.
The one-way mirror is simply an ordinary commodity that belongs to the rotten street on the earth, and it is not a high-tech product. It's just that here in the Miracle Continent, this kind of "magic mirror" seems to be quite rare. At present, it seems to be an independent and exclusive product of the Magic Guild, and no other magician can imitate it, so at present, only the Federation of Chambers of Commerce, the major empires, and the wealthy nobles and merchants in the entire continent can afford to use this kind of thing.
For those invited here to the nobles of Lane. They all seemed excited to see this special glass.
Even Koth couldn't help but go up and touch the glass for several minutes. Of course, the last comment he came up with was that it was no different from the touch of ordinary glass, and Sean rolled his eyes helplessly: Doesn't glass feel the same to the touch.
However, Sean's impression of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance has always stayed in the situation in the game, and the feeling at that time was that the tasks they gave were quite richly rewarded, and occasionally some very good welfare tasks were given. Overall, I was happy to do the task. Of course, that was in the game, after a clash with the Chamber of Commerce Alliance. Sean really doesn't have a good impression of this Chamber of Commerce Alliance.
It's just that it is not until today that I finally have a more intuitive idea of how rich the Chamber of Commerce Alliance is.
This is no ordinary kind of money.
Even if it is a second-class like Sean, he also knows that if a patented technology can be monopolized. Then what a lucrative thing it would be. And there is no doubt about it. The Mage's Guild has a special skill called the "Magic Mirror", and it's no wonder that they can become the richest guild in the entire continent. As for being able to afford this magic mirror, and implementing it on such a large scale, the extent of the wealth of this Chamber of Commerce Alliance can be imagined.
At this time, the underground auction secretly organized by the Chamber of Commerce Alliance has not officially begun, and the guests who have received the invitation are also entering one after another.
This will make Sean realize that this underground auction is not as simple as Saloki said before.
Perhaps her idea was really good at first, and the people of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance did intend to sell Saloki a broken branch of the Tree of Life at a relatively low price. But its essence is to sell it at a "lower price". If Saloki wants to take it by force, the little manpower around Saloki alone will definitely not be enough to suppress it by the Chamber of Commerce Alliance.
Because from the time it came in to the present. Sean had already felt more than a dozen breaths that were barely weaker than Marton's hidden around the entire auction hall, and these people did not deliberately restrain their own aura, and certainly did not leak their momentum like a show of power. After all, the people who can receive the invitation tonight are all big people who are either rich or expensive, and who does not follow so many strong people around them, even if they are not gold-level, but at least they are quasi-gold-level.
As long as these strong men do not break through the holy realm for a day, then there is still the possibility of being bitten to death by ants.
Similarly, anyone who wants to enter this auction tonight will have to carry an invitation, and each invitation can only bring up to two more people. Therefore, the only people who came to participate in this auction this time were Sean, Asuna, and Koss, and the guards brought by the three of them could only stand by in the tavern not far from the auction site - in fact, almost all the nobles brought a lot of guards to some extent, but these people were not able to enter this auction.
As far as the Chamber of Commerce is concerned, no matter how big your title and background are, anyone who does not have an invitation will not be allowed to enter. And even if there is an invitation, only two more people can be brought in, and if someone wants to break in, the Chamber of Commerce Alliance does not mind letting the other party see their determination. In previous years, there were already many people who did not know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth and died at the hands of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, and King Ryan also turned a blind eye to this, so over time, no one dared to offend again.
So now it is natural that an unwritten rule has formed.
Soon, the maids in the room began to bring some drinks and other food to the guests, and even the maids stayed behind to stand near the door to deal with the various requests that the guests might make next.
Sean glanced at the four maids standing by the door, all of whom belonged to the kind of women with outstanding appearance, bewitching figures, and charming temperaments. One of them boldly threw a wink at Sean when she saw Sean glancing at them, and even shook her body slightly, revealing a large area of delicate and smooth skin.
"If you're interested, you can take it." Asuna smiled suddenly, and then kindly reminded, "Of course, if you can't wait, there is a cubicle next to it." And even after the auction is over, the room can be reused until tomorrow, or you can take it home with you. …… As for whether or not you want to redeem them, it depends on your own interests. ”
For Asuna's recommendation that she was so familiar with, Sean smiled helplessly, and then refused.
How could he have time to toss around these ups and downs now, and even if he really wanted to, he would at least have to wait until the entire territory stabilized. And he has heard that many of these so-called maids are actually hidden assassins - although Sean did not see any hostile aura on them, it does not mean that Sean can mess around without scruples.
Fortunately, the auction was held soon, so Asuna did not continue to embarrass and ridicule Sean, who was lucky to have escaped.
When the auction officially began, everyone saw the magic array on the floor of the entire auction hall suddenly light up. It's just that the original blue brilliance has turned into an orange and red brilliance, and when the lines of each magic array are ignited, it feels like a long dragon roaring from flames, and when the entire magic array has completely turned orange-red, the entire circular auction hall has been completely illuminated with bright brilliance.
Four silvery-white bright lights fell directly from the dome and concentrated on the booth, making this display stand unusually conspicuous in the entire rotunda.
And at some point, a snow-white short knife has been placed on this booth.
Sean's eyes lit up a little, not because of the short knife on the booth, but because Sean found that the knife displayed on the booth was not a real thing, but a magic technique similar to a projection. Although he didn't know where the actual thing was stored, Sean knew that the projection of the knife was projected by the four silver-white bright lights, so there were actually three magic arrays in this rotunda, not one.
"What's wrong? Interested in that knife? Seeing Sean's gaze, Asuna asked.
"How is that possible?" Sean laughed, "That knife is just a very ordinary bronze demonized weapon, and it's not worth it in my eyes." …… Isn't it true that the first lot and the last lot in a general auction should be given very precious? How can you put this up for auction? ”
Hearing Sean's words, Koth and Asuna looked at Sean like monsters.
After a long time, Asuna opened her mouth first: "Do you think everyone is as lucky as you?" The followers under his command can possess such a good demonic weapon, and it is already good for ordinary people to be able to possess such a demonic weapon. …… In particular, this demonized weapon has been identified and tested, so there is no need to re-explore it yourself, as long as you get it, it can be converted into instant combat power, so it will be used as an opening auction item. ”
At this time, after hearing Asuna say this, Sean finally understood how scarce demonized weapons were in this world. And in the time that Sean and Asuna were chatting for a while, this magic short knife, which was just a medium-effect bronze level, had been speculated from the reserve price of 10,000 gold coins to the price of 50,000 gold coins, which was really a bit unexpected by Sean, and even if it had been hyped to such a high price, there were still three or four people still competing fiercely.
When the bidding price was as high as 70,000 yuan, only two people were still competing.
"Eighty thousand times!"
"Eighty thousand twice!"
"Eighty-three times!" The auctioneer on the booth was flushed and shouted excitedly, it looked even harder than the person who came out to sell, and after he shouted that there was still no one to bid for the third time, he finally waved his hammer excitedly and hammered it down on the booth.
Seeing that such a thing that was just rags in Sean's eyes was actually sold for a high price of 80,000 gold coins, and Koth and Asuna also looked obviously eager to take this short knife, Sean suddenly felt that he was too far ahead of this world, or was this world already crazy? It's hard to say anything else, if he only builds bronze-level demonic equipment, then he can create two or three pieces in a day.
To say the least, it must be close to 200,000 gold coins!
In Sean's eyes, it seems that a new door to wealth is slowly opening. (To be continued......)
