Chapter 166 [The disappearing manor]
The magnificent hall was brightly lit, and the nobles from the imperial capital were quarreling about the ownership of the girl in the cage.
After all, His Royal Highness, the princess they invited, did not come, and they did not have to worry about any face.
At least, now.
"Bathos, give it to me, and I can withdraw from the pursuit of His Highness the Princess."
A tall noble blonde young man wearing cumbersome clothes gave a weight to the young man opposite who was not inferior to his clothes.
Bartos looked at Jason, the second heir to the Duke of the Imperial Sword, and said with a cold smile.
"Jason, I can also quit, so do you let me?"
Obviously, the two of them are not giving in to each other, and the price they offer is so insignificant, after all, the eldest princess fiancé has all.
And such a top-notch dragon maid, whether it is given to others or collected, is the best treasure in the noble circle, and they will not let go easily.
The blonde young Jason looked at the dragon-turned girl in the cage and licked her lips greedily.
"What should I do to let me do?"
"Let's do this, the auction price will be more reasonable, and then everyone will share the money from the auction."
The second son of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Batos, is obviously quite business-oriented.
"Then let's just say that!"
Jason thought about it carefully, and finally thought this was more reasonable, after all, it was not easy to distinguish.
So, an auction with only one goods began quietly under the candlelight in the banquet hall.
......
When Geden transformed into a black cat, taking a dexterous pace and avoided the not-so-security guard, he came to the second floor terrace of the manor, squatting on the terrace. Through the colorful frosted glass-like windows, he could see that the banquet below had reached its climax.
However, outside sounds could not interfere with it, because its attention had been placed in the glass cabinet on the banquet stairs.
No, to be precise, it is the dragon girl in the glass cabinet.
Although her body structure and color are somewhat different from the original Nina, Gerton is extremely sure? That is Nina.
After all? Even Long Hua can still see her original appearance? Moreover, her overall temperament has not changed because of her dragon tail. She is still delicate and stupid.
After seeing Nina having nothing to do, Geton felt relieved.
But when it starts to hear those people eager to bid for the auction, the higher the price will be.
The pupils shrank slightly? The red that had just dissipated began to permeate the eyes again.
The banquet hall below is still lively.
"Three thousand."
"Three thousand one."
......Sounds of shouts rang out in the hall one after another.
But this price is not over yet? You know, those who have not taken the initiative yet.
"I'll give out 5,500 gold coins! Come and join in the fun."
A young man with a silver hair raised his hand without caring about it and added coupons to the goods on the stage.
The price of the goods that temporarily became "angel" increased by one third.
"The Turret family is indeed rich and powerful? Even the pocket money of the third heir is richer than that of us."
Some people were sour, but some responded quickly.
"After all, their family controls a lot of iron ore and transportation, so it's normal to have money, but he shouldn't be so irrational? Do you want to compete with Jason and the others?"
Before their conversation began, they discovered something more eye-catching than the price.
That is? The dragon girl in the demonized cage wakes up!
A scream and a whistle? It happened simultaneously in the banquet hall.
It made Nina, who had just woken up, feel a little confused.
The blue liquid in the glass cabinet has been absorbed by her so much that she is now as if she is in water.
But Nina didn't feel any discomfort, and it was like in the water.
But before Nina could feel the changes in her body carefully, she realized that she was actually in a luxurious hall, and her position was in full view of everyone.
Nina, who had never experienced this before, subconsciously curled up and rolled herself into a ball with her hands, feet and the inexperienced dragon tail.
The outside world's voices were louder and they were about to lift the roof. However, the same was true for other estates on Queen's Avenue, and they were a distance apart, so they did not affect anyone.
Nina's awakening also made the auction enthusiastic higher and higher. With the consequences of those main players, the price of this dragon-born maid soared to an astonishing price.
You can even exchange it for the price of a magical object.
What they didn't notice, though.
I don’t know when, but I could vaguely hear the music from other manors in my ears, and I didn’t know when, but I disappeared.
The blue night outside also turned into a dark night sky, with dim stars hiding in the shadows and blending into one.
The black cat squatting on the terrace, the cat shadow reflected by candlelight on the wall also quietly changed amid the sound of the price increase.
First, the cat's shadow exploded, and it turned into an indescribable monster shadow.
Then the four horns and countless spikes on the head appeared in the shadows, and then a pair of dark golden vertical pupils slowly opened and closed below, with slender dragon tails and wings thrown out of the bloated shadows, and then the huge body wrapped in matte black scales.
The terrace outside the window was a little overwhelmed with weight and made a creaking sound.
"Six thousand seven." Jason shouted with a feverish look on his face.
The slender dragon shadow tidied up his appearance in front of the mirror on the terrace, and jumped down from the terrace like a gentleman.
"Seven thousand!" said Batos, the second son of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, without hesitation.
However, as soon as he said it, he was interrupted by a silent voice from outside the door.
"One hundred million!"
The magnificent loud noise made dozens of nobles and servants in the banquet hall look out the door in one go.
I want to see who dares to make trouble at their banquet. One hundred million gold coins can buy the territory of several countries. Even if I want to start a country, it is enough to hire those who are the most greedy and real dragons.
Jason shouted in anger.
"Who is it! One hundred million gold coins? Can you take it out?"
"Just a small goal."
The visitor said jokingly.
"You can get it by just getting it together, right? Everyone!"
The thick door was opened, but not by normal means, but was directly knocked down by a huge force and fell down flat.
As the door collapsed, several black shadows were thrown into the hall.
The sharp-eyed Jason and others naturally saw clearly that these corpses were all servants guarding outside the door.
How could it be?
