Main Text Volume Chapter 282 Resentful Puppet
"No. 19 bids 150,000 magic crystals!"
"No. 177 bids 180,000 magic crystals!"
"No. 19 bids 190,000 magic crystals!"
As the price continued to rise, Flora floated behind Sanders and whispered: "Teacher, it's just a gourmet apprentice, why spend money to buy it? If we have time, we can go to Fairy Tale Town to find one."
What Flora meant by "find" was to knock out the one she liked, pack it up and take it away, without any delay.
Sanders did not respond directly to Flora's words, but asked with a hint of inexplicable meaning: "Do you think Graya is really dead?"
"No. 327 bids 200,000 magic crystals!"
Sanders took a look and continued to add 10,000 magic crystals. At this time, the price of the eyeless man had soared to 210,000.
Flora hesitated and said, "Greya should be dead, right? Time in the Nightmare Realm is almost completely still... If she could come out, she would have come out long ago. Unless, she left from another exit and no one knew; but the probability is too small."
"Besides, even if she really left the Nightmare Realm, she should have contacted the Candy House instead of contacting her own men." Flora pouted: "Anyway, I think she should be dead."
"Then just assume she is dead." Sanders did not make much comment, as if the question he just asked was meaningless.
Flora narrowed her eyes: "From the tone of the mentor, is there any inside story here?"
Sanders was silent for a while before saying: "Although the people in the Candy House seem to be eccentric and free, their cohesion is actually stronger than we thought. Such a cohesive wizard organization did not say anything about Greya's accident. Even their subordinates were captured and sold by various parties, and no one came forward to rescue them. Don't you think it's a bit strange?"
Flora tilted her head: "Teacher means... Greya is not dead?"
Sanders shook his head: "I don't know about this, but I heard an anecdote."
"What anecdote?"
Sanders' eyes were dim: "Felicia went to the Glory Realm some time ago, and later went to the Grand Plane with an old man whose head was woven into a crescent moon and whose beard was inlaid with sun patterns."
Head woven into a crescent moon, beard inlaid with sun patterns. ——A shadow appeared in Flora's mind.
"The Glorious World, right?" Flora whispered, "It's a bit strange indeed."
The Glorious World is a subsidiary plane of the wizard world.
The so-called subsidiary plane is a manifestation of the successful fusion of planes. It is separated from all the characteristics of the free plane. All rules and properties are expressed by the fusion party, but it itself is independent of the big world.
For example, it is like the relationship between offshore islands and the continent. Even if the island seems to be isolated overseas and has no borders with the continent, if you look at it from the perspective of the continent, the island is actually just a derivative of the continent. After all, it is still one, but the form of expression is independent.
Here, the Glorious World is the offshore island, and the continent is the wizard world.
There are many such large and small subsidiary planes in the southern wizard world. Because of the huge gap between wizards and mortals, most wizard organizations are established in subsidiary planes to avoid connecting with mortals. Among these subsidiary planes, the Glorious World is a very special existence.
The vastness of the subsidiary plane is beyond imagination. Some subsidiary planes are even larger than the continent. The reason why the Glory Realm is special is that in such a vast subsidiary plane, there is only one wizard organization in the entire Glory Realm, which is rare in other subsidiary planes.
And this wizard organization that occupies a subsidiary plane alone is the Crown Star Church.
The holy place of prophecy wizards.
The figure that appeared in Flora's mind was also a famous prophecy wizard: Prada of Stargazing.
The reason why Sanders only described his appearance and did not say his real name is because the prophecy wizard has a sense of all those who call him by his name.
Just like the Abyss Demon, the real name is their medium. Talking about his real name can allow his thoughts to cross thousands of planes and sense you.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Sanders did not say his name.
"Felicia invited a great wizard of prophecy, but she didn't go to the Hante world to look for Greya, but went to the next door of the Hante world - the Tanghuang plane. There is something intriguing about this." Perhaps women are naturally sensitive to gossip. Flora said it was strange, but she had actually imagined several scenes in her mind.
Perhaps Greya is really not dead. But...
"But, is this why the mentor wants to bid for him? Is it to sell Greya a favor?" Flora pointed at the eyeless man on the auction table.
Sanders shook his head: "Not really. It's just that I haven't eaten the food made by the gourmet wizard for a long time, and I'm greedy."
Flora "snorted": "Do you think I will believe it?"
Sanders rarely smiled: "It's up to you whether you want to believe it or not."
...
In the end, Sanders still didn't bid for the eyeless man.
When Twilight made the final decision and announced the deal. A voice full of tenderness and love spread throughout the entire backstage: "Master Sanders, how about we have dinner together tonight? Let the guy in the cage cook."
Sanders did not respond.
"We took a picture of him just to get him to cook for us." After a pause, "Anyway, it's almost the same whether I took the picture or you took the picture. Anyway, I will be..." your man in the future.
Before she finished her words, she heard Flora retort: "What do you mean by almost? Lydia, don't push your luck."
It was Lydia who took the photo of the eyeless man. She smiled coquettishly: "What? Flora is a little angry today. Is it because you are jealous?"
Flora wanted to retort, but heard a rough male voice: "Honglian, don't be so annoying in public. Lord Huanmo doesn't want to talk to you, so don't make yourself uncomfortable."
Lydia's face darkened: "I wonder who it is, it turns out to be Liao'an Sick Lion, Dai Deweiya."
When Lydia finished her words, everyone present smiled. Dare to face Zhenggang Dai Deweiya, and change Liao'an Lion to Liao'an Sick Lion, Lydia is indeed worthy of being the hot-tempered Honglian.
Dai Deweiya snorted coldly
Lydia: "What? You want to fight me? Come on."
Daidvia did not respond, but said to Twilight: "Continue the auction."
Twilight nodded, and then said to Box No. 1: "Mr. Honglian, why are you angry? Why don't you take a look at our last auction item? Maybe you will be interested."
After Twilight finished speaking, the magic array in the entire inner field emitted a fierce light, and the efficiency was fully activated. Every minute, hundreds of magic crystals were consumed.
At the same time, more than a dozen official wizards appeared on the stage. Some were suspended, some were hidden, some were leaning lazily, and some were sitting upright, surrounding the entire auction table tightly.
Such a big battle shows how much Twilight values the last auction item!
The form of being on high alert made the wizards present begin to look forward to it. Even Lydia squinted and stopped arguing.
I haven't heard that this year's big auction will have many good things? But why does Twilight's current battle look like a rare treasure is about to appear in the world?
Actually, there is something strange about this.
Davey was helpless. Just before the Twilight auction, someone actually sent this item to the auction. He originally wanted to take it internally, but the sender insisted on bidding. He thought that if he delayed it to the end of the year, there might be a turnaround; even if there was no turnaround, he could do more publicity to the outside world and gain greater benefits. But the sender was still adamant and insisted on putting it up for auction in the middle of the year. He had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Sanders's arrival this time was actually invited by Davey with an emergency invitation.
"Everyone, please look." Twilight waved his hand, and a sealed glass cabinet appeared on the stage.
A rag doll that looked dark and obscure was hung in the glass cabinet.
The rag doll was not big, only half the length of an arm. From a distance, it looked like a weather doll that mortals prayed for good weather. It had a simple round head, a few black hairs, a **** and a long wiring on its body, which could be hung anywhere.
But when you look closely, you will see. This rag doll is full of eerie and terrifying atmosphere, and a few black hairs on its head have fallen down, unable to cover its eyes. Its eyes are black and red concentric circles, closely together, faintly emitting a strange light.
When the rag doll appeared, all the wizards, including Sanders, took a breath!
They thought that the finale of the Twilight Auction would be a high-level alchemical prop, or other items of equal value. But they didn't expect it to be such a thing!
This is definitely the biggest hand in the Twilight Auction House in the past ten years!
Regardless of whether they can bid for this item, almost all formal wizards have the idea of "worth the trip" in their hearts.
For wizard apprentices, this rag doll does not look very special, but it looks a little scary and gloomy.
Only formal wizards will see the secrets hidden in this small rag doll-
When the rag doll appeared, for formal wizards, the entire inner hall seemed to be dark, and only a black shadow with a scream of laughter rushed out of the rag doll, covering the entire inner hall. Then they saw a pair of terrifying red eyes and a bloody mouth that kept turning up on the black shadow.
Even the glass cabinet that forbids magic could not block the terrifying blood shadow that seemed to be real.
This is a world that wizard apprentices cannot see.
…
"No mistake, this is definitely a... mysterious object!" A wizard stood up excitedly, his eyes full of surprise. Looking at his expression, he wanted to rush to the stage to observe it closely.
"Mysterious object?" The excitement of this wizard instantly infected others.
Most wizard apprentices still have a vague concept of "mysterious objects". Even if they don't know the concept of "mystery", looking at the excitement of this wizard, they clearly understand that the finale item on the stage may not be as simple as they see.
"Yes, it is a mysterious object that has never appeared in the world." Twilight smiled and looked at the wizards' admiration for the puppet doll. She slowly said: "Its name: Resentment Puppet."
Twilight only said its name, and did not mention any other introduction.
It's not that she didn't want to say it, but she didn't know it either. The seller was mysterious and the item was extremely mysterious. The other party did not allow them to do the routine test before the auction, otherwise they would give up the auction.
A mysterious item, a mysterious item in the wild.
Even if it was put in the auction of Sky Mechanical City, it would be the finale!
They were a small wizard market, and if they could get this item in the routine auction, their reputation and popularity would be greatly boosted. In order not to miss this item, they still agreed even if the seller's conditions were extremely harsh.
“I won’t say any more nonsense. The base price of this item is 100,000 magic crystals. Each increase in price will be no less than… 100,000 magic crystals!”
