Main Text Volume Chapter 263: Bidding in the Name of Betrayal
The auction was very fast, especially in the early stage, when the auction items were not very valuable, and every few minutes there was a round.
For the first dozen or so items, people outside the auction site kept bidding, but in the middle and early stages, each item was more than 500 magic crystals, and no one outside the auction site bid since then.
During this period, there was a gaseous material that could be used as a catalyst substitute. Angel bid for it, but it was later passed by someone else. Because this material was not a necessity, Angel did not bid for it in the end.
Prometheus spent 400 magic crystals to buy an alchemical basin for blending. Angel actually had an interest in this item, but since Prometheus had bid, he was embarrassed to compete with others and had to give up.
From the beginning of the auction to now, everyone was relatively harmonious and rational during the auction, until the 30th item, there was a small wave of **.
It was an analytical equation about "Energy Compression".
When Twilight took out this small booklet, all the wizards below were shocked. The analytical equation of energy compression is not so precious in major wizard organizations. Even in Angel's "Basic Alchemy Collection", there are alchemical drawings of energy compressors, which also record the equation of energy compression.
The reason why it caused shock is that this thing has always been monopolized by large wizard organizations. It is not easy for wizards without background to get it.
And the Twilight Auction not only got it, but also put it up for auction, which is the reason for their shock.
The wizards sitting on the first floor were all bidding. However, no one bid in the silver card VIP area on the second floor and the gold card box on the third floor. Angel even heard a sarcastic female voice from the box in the middle of the third floor: "This kind of rubbish is auctioned off. Twilight's level is getting lower and lower. It seems that we don't need to come again next time."
Even Angel heard this female voice, let alone others.
At the same time, voices of approval were heard from several other boxes on the third floor.
The wizards who were still bidding on the first floor all showed embarrassment on their faces. But no one dared to object. Thinking of the identity of that person, some people lowered their heads and dared not say anything.
Twilight's face was also a little unnatural, but she was not angry. Instead, she waited until the analytical equation of "Energy Compression" was auctioned off before she said lightly: "Don't worry, Lord Honglian. I believe that today's auction will not disappoint you."
The female wizard called "Lord Honglian" sneered softly: "Oh, really? Then I'll wait and see."
Twilight's heart was blocked, and she forced her attention away from the VIP box of the gold card No. 1 and continued to the next item.
When the auction reached the 44th item, Angel's eyes lit up and finally saw an item that made him excited.
It was a box of extremely rare "Dark Gold Gargoyle Tongue Blood", which is a very precious magic blood. It can not only be used to cultivate dark gold blood magic ore, but also has a strange effect on enchanted alchemists.
Just need to match some auxiliary materials, you can make a special ink: Gargoyle Blood Ink.
This is a rare blood ink that can be dipped with a carving brush. When using it to draw magic patterns, there is a chance that the material's maximum characteristics can be exerted, and even special effects can be generated.
For example, Mithril, a metal ore, has a very strong magic conduction property. Using Mithril as a material, the alchemical products made can achieve the final effect with very little magic. If you use Gargoyle Blood Ink to enchant, there is a chance that Mithril materials can exert their maximum characteristics in alchemy. The greatest characteristic of Mithril is that it conducts magic without obstruction, and it can also absorb the original magic in the air autonomously, using extremely small magic to achieve 10 times the effect.
This is equivalent to only consuming the magic of a level 0 trick to release a level 2 trick. It can be said that if Mithril is used to its maximum effect, the benefits are extremely amazing.
As for the chance of directly generating special effects, Angel doesn't care much about this. Compared with the chance of exerting the maximum characteristics of the material, the chance of directly generating special effects is frighteningly low. Even if the gargoyle blood ink enchantment is not used, as long as the alchemy of special materials is used, special effects may be generated.
However, Angel has never hit such good luck in alchemy after so many times. It is better to study enchantment honestly than to rely on that little chance.
Because of the irreplaceable function of blood ink, Angel couldn't wait to bid when Twilight said "the bidding begins".
He directly offered a price of 500 magic crystals, which instantly killed the thoughts of the staff outside the field.
"No. 187 bids 500 magic crystals. Is there anyone who wants it? Each bid must not be less than 50 magic crystals. If no one wants it, the countdown will begin." Twilight's voice spread throughout the inner field.
The tongue coating blood of the dark gold gargoyle is most meaningful for enchantment alchemy, but it does not mean that it has no other uses. For example, cultivating dark gold blood demon ore, refining dark gold petrification virus, making alchemy potions, etc....
So after Angel made the bid, he was still a little nervous, worried that someone would compete with him.
"500 magic crystals for the first time."
"500 magic crystals for the second time." Twilight's voice was calm, but with a hint of urging emotion.
At this time, the number on the screen in front of Twilight jumped, and she smiled: "No. 35 bids 550 magic crystals!"
No. 35! This is the number of the gold card box!
Angel frowned. Gold card VIPs are all official wizards, and they are also rich and powerful official wizards. Do they need to fight for a bottle of blood ink?
While Angel was thinking, Twilight began to count: "55o magic crystal once...twice...three..."
Just when she was about to make the final decision, Angel gritted his teeth, and in the slightly pitiful eyes of David and Promi, he increased the price to 600 magic crystals.
When Twilight saw the number changed again, she raised her eyebrows slightly: "No. 187 has increased the price again, 6oo magic crystal!"
No. 187, Silver Card VIP Area. No. 35, Gold Card Box.
Silver VIPs and Gold VIPs fought for the first time in today's infield auction!
Shortly after Angel increased the price, the price of No. 35 suddenly popped up, and Twilight quoted loudly: "Bid No. 35, 75o magic crystal!"
Now that he had faced off once, Angel became more courageous and increased the price to 8oo magic crystal without hesitation.
So, under the surprised eyes of everyone, the "Dark Gold Gargoyle's Tongue Blood", which was of almost no use to others, unexpectedly increased to 1100 magic crystals under the back and forth of you and me!
At this time, No. 35 tried again, perhaps wanting to defeat Angel's psychological bottom line in one fell swoop, and directly raised the price to 1500 magic crystals.
"15oo magic crystal!" When Twilight read out this price, there was a wave of discussion in both the inside and outside courts. This is the highest bid in Twilight's auction today!
If the lot had been something else, perhaps it would not have generated as much discussion. But this is not a mainstream auction item. Although it is extremely rare, the price is only 1,000 magic crystals. Now it has reached 1500 magic crystals, which is simply the limit for such items in the Twilight Auction.
"It's quite interesting that gold card and silver card VIPs are facing each other." Whispers were passed around.
"I'm a little confused. The tongue coating blood of this dark gold gargoyle seems to be more useful for enchanting alchemists, right? So, are these two enchanting alchemists fighting for it? I remember that there should be few near our Dark Demon Kingdom. Learn enchantment and alchemy."
During the discussion, Angel began to seriously consider whether to continue to increase the price. 15oo magic crystal is already an extremely high price for this item.
Even if it is used in enchanting alchemy, it is still a bit high. But it is only "on the high side". If an alchemy item with ultimate material effects is really produced, it will be a big profit.
What Angre struggled with most was not the price, but the attitude of the gold card VIP.
David also whispered: "Forget it, the price is too high."
Promi also nodded: "Angel, you have to think clearly. Betting on odds is always a bottomless pit."
What they both said was right, and Angel also felt that it was time to give up. But he was still a little unwilling to do so. The blood ink that could be used for enchantment was already scarce. Although the gargoyle blood ink was not outstanding among the blood inks, it could not resist its high quality. Although the blood ink refined by the "Dark Gold Gargoyle" and the "Tomb Gargoyle" are both called Gargoyle Blood Ink, the dark gold quality blood ink is definitely far superior to the others.
Just as the audience was waiting for Angel to raise the price, an extremely charming female voice suddenly came from the gold card box where No. 35 was located:
"This box of tongue blood will definitely belong to me, no matter how much you pay. Hehehehe~~"
People watching on the big screen outside were still thinking about why all the people in the box were talking. There was a panic in the infield. Most of the people who could enter the infield were well-informed. Coupled with the highly recognizable voice, how could they not guess who No. 35 was? !
"I'm going to faint, it's this gentleman!"
"No. 187 dares to bid with this gentleman. Who is No. 187?"
"Who is the gentleman you are talking about?" Some people did not know the identity of the person.
"You can't even recognize her voice, you are so ignorant!"
"This is the blood witch who ranks first in the Southern Region with her bloody name - Lady Flora!"
"The meaning behind Flora-sama's words already contains an obvious threat. It means that even if No. 187 takes this lot, Flora-sama will not let it go. I just want to know now, How does No. 187 feel now?"
"You must be trembling with fear!"
So how is No. 187 feeling now?
Fear, worry, trembling? Angel doesn't have any of these, but his current mood is still extremely complicated. The person he has been arguing with for a long time is actually Flora? ! If you had spoken earlier, I would not have argued!
Now that the price has been raised so high, if others know his identity, he will definitely be a typical traitor in the nest... I guess the headline of the gossip magazine in Twilight Shenjing tomorrow will be "Shocked!" The two beloved disciples of the Killing God of the Southern Region actually fought each other with swords, and the reason was actually because of him..."
Angel was about to cry but had no tears, and David and Promi were also dumbfounded.
David pretended to be mature and patted Angel on the shoulder: "Oh, kid, it's really hard on you. The most important thing now is to conceal your identity and pretend you haven't been here. No. 187 is just a cloud... "
Angel nodded with tears in his eyes: "Then let's change places?"
David's face suddenly faded: "Forget it, I asked the prophecy wizard to calculate it for me. Today my lucky number is 186, and my unlucky number is 187. Thank you for your hard work for my bright future."
Knowing that No. 35 was Flora, Angel naturally gave up the competition. Unexpectedly, Flora, who had left the Savage Cave for almost half a year, would appear in the twilight shoot.
Now that Flora is here, will Sanders come too? Angel thought curiously.
…
After Angel gave up the price increase, Flora naturally took the picture of "Dark Gold Gargoyle's Tongue Coat Blood". But when Flora thought about spending so much extra money to buy this lot, she felt very angry and couldn't help snorting.
This cold snort spread throughout the audience again.
When Twilight was about to introduce the next lot, she heard a burst of joking laughter from Box 1: "Flora, when did you learn to bully the small?"
The one who spoke was the female wizard whom Twilight called "Your Excellency Red Lotus".
"Who keeps yelling? It's the horny Lydia?" Flora giggled: "Why did I bully the little one? Do you have a crush on No. 187? Why don't we let No. 187 come out for a walk? , see if it suits your taste."
Lydia was not angry and continued teasingly: "She is very single-minded. Except for Mr. Sanders, she doesn't look down on anyone else."
"Maybe No. 187 is my mentor himself?" Flora did not forget to drag No. 187 into the water while stepping on Lydia.
Angel lay silently, shrinking himself tighter.
"So you are not with Mr. Sanders, so there is nothing to say. What a waste of sister's saliva." With Lydia's angry words ending, the fight between the two witches came to an end. Curtain.
But Lydia didn't stop either, but this time the target was Twilight: "The auction has gone on until now, and the thing you said you won't let me down has not yet appeared, so are you using me for entertainment?"
