Chapter 1330 The Divine Snail Clan
---------..
"Haha, that guy is probably going to vomit blood now! He can make up such a ridiculous explanation!" Griner and Cantoli also heard the explanation, but they were just like everyone else. I just thought that Lin Li was making it up. Moreover, this also further proves their previous guess that the other party calculated that they would be tricked instead of succeeding. This is quite embarrassing. No wonder the other party made up such an excuse.
This small disturbance diverted everyone's attention away from the auction. As a result, the next few items to be auctioned did not cause too much fierce competition, and their respective ownerships were quickly clarified, which also made Grand Duke Vidi feel a little distressed.
However, at this moment, the manager of an auction house suddenly ran onto the stage and whispered something in the ear of Grand Duke Vidi. No one knew what the two of them said. All they could see was the expression on Grand Duke Vidi's face. First he frowned, then he looked astonished, and finally he became extremely solemn.
Finally, Mr. Vidi waited for his subordinates for a few words, waved his hand and asked them to step down and leave, and began to continue the next auction.
Soon, another auction item was brought to the stage. As this auction item was brought up, the attention of everyone in the venue was also attracted. It's just that this auction item looks unremarkable, and can even be said to be a bit ugly.
This is a staff, or it seems to be a staff. The whole body is grayish-yellow and dark in color. Its shape is not straight, but twisted like a dead branch. From the appearance of this staff, no one can tell what kind of material it is made of. It is not metal or wood, and there are no gems inlaid on it. It is just thick at one end and thin at the other.
"Most of my friends may find this staff strange, and even say that such a thing can be called a staff?" Grand Duke Vidi picked up the ugly staff and showed it to everyone in a joking tone. Then he said: "However, let me mention a name that may be familiar to everyone sitting here. That is Mocha Gerio."
Sure enough, just like what Grand Duke Vidi said, when he heard the name Mocha Gerio, there was a buzz in the entire venue, breaking the original calm atmosphere of the venue.
Mokagelio is a very famous person among the sea tribe and a powerful holy mage. But the reason why he is so famous is not simply because of his strength. After all, the strong men in the holy realm among the sea tribe are not unique. An important reason why he is so famous is actually because his race is the goby tribe, which is a very famous short-lived species among many sea tribes, with an average lifespan of only more than thirty years. Even if they reach the legendary realm, the life span of the shrimp and tiger tribe can only be extended to a hundred years. It is almost impossible for anyone to break through the holy realm in such a short period of time.
But Mocha Gerio is definitely an anomaly among the gobies. First of all, he is definitely a genius. He has entered the legendary realm at the age of fifteen. Not to mention among the shrimp and tiger clan, he is definitely a genius among the countless sea clans in the entire Endless Sea.
However, even if the goby tribesmen enter the legendary realm, they only have a life span of less than a hundred years. If you want to rely on it for decades and then break through from the legendary realm to the holy realm, I am afraid that except for a pervert like Lin Li, no one can be so defiant. The same is true for Mochagelio. According to records, until he was in his nineties, he showed no signs of breaking through to the realm of the Holy Realm. It seemed that he had nothing else to do but wait for death.
However, what surprised everyone was that Mokagelio, who had not broken through to the Holy Realm before he was a hundred years old, was not summoned by the God of Death like other tribesmen when he turned one hundred years old, but was still there. Continue to study how to break through the holy realm.
It wasn't until he was more than two hundred years old that Mokagelio finally broke through the realm of the holy realm and became the first holy realm mage in the history of the goby tribe. No one knows how long a short-lived species like the Goby tribe will gain after entering the realm of the Holy Realm. They only know that after becoming a Holy Realm mage, Mocha Gerio lived for tens of thousands of years before disappearing.
Therefore, how Mochagelio breaks through the shackles of lifespan has become a secret that many sea tribes, especially the short-lived species similar to the goby tribe, are eager to crack.
"You must have thought of something. Yes, this coral staff is exactly the staff that Mochagelio has been using since he was a child. He has not changed it even after he broke through the holy realm. About this coral staff We have invited dozens of master appraisers to jointly identify the authenticity of the staff, and finally confirmed that the staff is authentic. Then, the next step is the auction of this coral staff. The auction base price is five million gold coins.
"After Grand Duke Vidi introduced it, he inserted the coral staff on the shelf on the table, and a huge projection appeared on the curtain behind him, showing everything in detail.
As a staff used by strong men in the holy realm, the power of this coral staff is not very powerful, so many people are not very enthusiastic about this staff. However, the short-lived species among the Sea Tribe are not just a race of the Goby Tribe. They are also short-lived species like the Juao Tribe, but they are not as miserable as the Goby Tribe. What these short-lived species value is not the strength of the staff, but the secrets it may contain about Mocha Jerio's ability to break through the shackles of lifespan.
Therefore, ever since Grand Duke Vidi announced the start of the bidding, the fiercest competition has begun among those short-lived sea races. And this secret of immortality is not just attractive to short-lived species. Even the so-called immortal species have different lifespans. Who doesn't want to master the secret of immortality?
Although according to the rules of the auction, the minimum price increase is only 200,000 gold coins, the price of the Coral Staff still skyrocketed by millions, reaching the tens of millions of gold coins in the blink of an eye. But even so, not many people gave up. It seemed that many people regarded this coral staff as the most important target in this auction.
Speaking of which, the human race is also a short-lived species, and the average life span of ordinary people is only sixty or seventy years. However, human beings have great potential for development. Once they break through the legendary realm, they will have a life span of thousands of years. If you reach the realm of the Holy Realm, your lifespan cannot be said to be eternal, but it can almost be said to be infinite. Therefore, during the fight for the Coral Staff, the major human forces did not take any action and simply sat there and watched the show.
With the continuous quotations, the price of the Coral Staff has skyrocketed, continuously breaking through the tens of millions mark, and in the blink of an eye, it has reached the mark of 60 million gold coins, which is even crazier than the previous mirage. However, as the 60 million gold coin mark was exceeded, some weaker forces finally had no choice but to give up, and this made the bidding no longer as intensive as before.
"My Sea Serpent Clan offers 63 million gold coins!" Young Lord Falter of the Sea Serpent Clan suddenly not only quoted the price, but also announced the name of his own Sea Serpent Clan. Obviously, what Falter did was not just a bid, but also a threat. Among the seven overlords, the Sea Serpent Clan has the shortest lifespan, with an average lifespan of only about three hundred years. This is why the Sea Serpent Clan is determined to obtain the Coral Staff.
Sure enough, after Falter's call, the expressions of many people participating in the auction changed. After all, the Sea Serpent Clan is also one of the seven overlords of the ocean, and its strength is far from comparable to those of the lower-ranked Sea Clan. In particular, the Sea Serpents are famous among the seven overlords for being vicious and vicious, capable of doing anything when provoked.
Moreover, it can be seen from Falter's shout that the price of this coral staff is probably close to the limit of what he can bear. The deserted sea where the Sea Snake Clan is located is not very rich in products. Although tens of millions of gold coins are not a big deal for them, no one may want to save some.
However, the secret of immortality is obviously very tempting, and can even make people ignore the threat of the Sea Serpent Tribe. Not long after Falter shouted, an extremely sudden voice sounded in the venue.
"Sixty-five million gold coins!"
Suddenly, everyone looked in the direction of the shouting voice and saw in a corner of the venue, a strange-looking sea tribesman holding up the sign in his hand with a slight trembling.
This Sea Clan person is relatively short, about 1.23 meters tall, and looks like a goblin among the Sea Clan. On the head of this sea tribesman, there is a hat made of colorful conch shells, and a golden conch as big as a fist hangs around his neck.
Although Lin Li was sitting in a private room on the second floor, he happened to be able to see that strange Sea Clan person. He carefully went through the memories of the many Sea Clan people in his mind, and finally found out some information about them from some nook and cranny. . From this, we can see what kind of status this Sea Clan race has among the many Sea Clan people.
Under the threat of the Sea Serpent Tribe, the short Sea Tribe people who still insist on fighting for the Coral Staff actually have a very cool name, called the Divine Snail Tribe. However, among the many sea clans, the Shenluo clan is definitely at the bottom in terms of strength, not to mention compared to the seven overlords, even the shrimp and tiger clan are far inferior.
The people of the Shenluo Clan have almost no fighting ability. He can learn magic, but his talent is very poor. The so-called genius is only at the level of a tenth-level magician. You can also learn martial arts, but looking at their physical fitness, you can imagine what achievements they can achieve.
However, the Divine Snail Clan has a talent, which is to use the sound waves of the snail horn to bless the people on their side with various beneficial states, such as passion, courage, tenacity, etc. It can be said that the Shenluo tribe is born to be an auxiliary race, a race that needs to be attached to a certain powerful force, just like the symbiotic creatures in the ocean.
It stands to reason that such a purely auxiliary race should be very popular with other sea tribes. For example, the Giant Shark Clan and the Giant Shark Knight are already very powerful, but with the auxiliary buffs from the Shenluo Clan, their combat effectiveness is not even slightly improved. In fact, it is said that during the Ocean Dynasty, the Shenluo Clan's status in the Ocean Dynasty was quite good, and the Shenluo Clan was indispensable in several major legions.
It's a pity that during the chaotic ocean war, no matter which side the Shenluo tribe appears on the battlefield, they will become the enemy's priority target for elimination. If it was during the Ocean Dynasty, the emphasis was on the coordination of various races and arms, so there was also a team dedicated to protecting the Shenluo people on the battlefield. However, the ocean war is a war between races, just like cavalry, infantry, and archers fighting, how can they take care of the people of the Shenluo tribe.
By the time the Ocean War ended, the Shenluo Clan had lost all its talents and could not even find a single legendary figure. Moreover, due to the decline of the race, the Shenluo tribe did not benefit much after the war. Without the help of a large amount of resources, it would be even less possible to cultivate outstanding talents, which became a vicious cycle.
At this time, the Shenluo Clan, in the eyes of the powerful sea tribes, has lost its value in winning over, and is as tasteless as chicken ribs. Therefore, the Shenluo Clan, like other weak sea tribes, can only occupy a small and barren sea area and struggle to maintain the continuation of the race. The only extra income is to accept employment from other small forces. After all, for those small forces, sometimes even a slight improvement in combat effectiveness is good.
The average lifespan of the Shenluo Clan is four to fifty years. Only when they enter the legendary realm can they reach more than a hundred years. This is considered a fairly standard short-lived species among the Sea Clan. Without outstanding geniuses and insufficient lifespan, the Shenluo Clan has developed to this point. To put it more seriously, it is already at a critical moment of life and death.
UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.net No one can decide whether a genius is born or not, so the Shenluo tribe has no choice but to focus on extending their lifespan. In fact, are those powerful races really born with geniuses? Perhaps with the same talent, it would take a hundred years to enter the legendary realm. Some immortal species have a lifespan of hundreds of years, so it would be no surprise to naturally enter the legendary realm. But when it comes to the Shenluo Clan, they only have a lifespan of forty or fifty years, so how can they spend a hundred years to break through to the legendary realm.
Therefore, lifespan is really a big problem that plagues the development of many short-growing species. Just like high elves and humans, high elves reach the legendary level when they reach adulthood, and it is not uncommon to step into the holy realm. Therefore, they claim to be the perfect race of descendants of gods. But the lifespan of high elves is measured in thousands of years. If humans have such a long lifespan, they may not be worse than high elves.
The same goes for the Shenluo Clan. Their lifespan is only forty or fifty years. Unless they are the kind of genius who is rare to see in a thousand years, who can break through to the legendary realm in these forty or fifty years. And that must be supported by a large amount of resources. During the Ocean Dynasty, the Seahorse Royal Family valued the abilities of the Divine Snail Clan, and a single order could allocate enough resources to them to spawn a large number of legendary levels. But now, whoever doesn't use resources on his own race will be so full that he wastes resources on their Shenluo tribe. (
