Chapter 302: Magic Weapons and Magic Martial Arts [5K]
Just like that, after the first auction ended, since it was almost evening.
There is less than an hour left before the second auction begins.
So, inside and outside the huge starry sky auction house.
It was directly transformed into a huge party hall.
A large number of pretty maids began to shuttle among groups of nobles and wealthy businessmen dressed in fine clothes.
Provide exquisite meals and drinks to these high-ranking dignitaries.
Moreover, every maid’s delicately made-up face is filled with a bright smile, looking hard-working and polite.
There is no doubt that if these adults are happy and reward some golden dragons, it will be a considerable amount of money for them who are born as commoners.
What's more, if a few lucky ones can be spotted by these big shots, it is not impossible for them to fly directly onto the branches and become phoenixes.
Seeing this, Lei Xiao, who was in the front row booth area, shrugged slightly.
In front of me was a young maid with a delicate appearance and good growth, who carefully and meticulously cleared the table.
With a calm expression, Lei Xiao casually threw a handful of golden dragons into the opponent's tray.
Hush.
The sound of gold coins colliding is clear and touching.
The golden light flickered, reflecting the white face of the young maid who was full of surprise.
After that, not long after the young maid who had thanked her so much had just left, Kelly, who was wearing a decent red dress, walked over with the hem of her skirt held up.
I saw her first trimming her bun hairstyle, and then moved closer to Lei Xiao.
He said respectfully: "Your lord, the auction items you just won and the remaining golden dragons have been handed over to my subordinates. Please go and check them."
“Very good.” Lei Xiao nodded slightly, stood up from the sofa, and began to walk outside the auction house under Kelly’s guidance.
At the same time, Hu Zhi, Lin and Bai Wei, who had been hiding under the invisibility cloak, as well as Fang Hai, A Ling and A Bing who were at the table not far away, also followed up one after another.
It is worth mentioning that when Lei Xiao passed by Tina of the Blue Rose Knights and Ryan of the Short Blade Knights.
These two powerful knight captains nodded slightly, obviously they already have a lot of good impressions of themselves.
Next, Lei Xiao returned to the previous luxurious reception room and discovered it.
At this time, dozens of boxes of shining golden dragons were neatly placed on the floor in the room, and a series of exquisite brocade boxes were neatly arranged on the high-end mahogany table.
“Lord, these are the items and golden dragons we obtained from this auction.”
After bowing to Lei Xiao, Kelly introduced: "A total of 286,000 golden dragons, ten first-level magic potions, ten second-level magic potions, and a storage ring."
"Thank you for your hard work." Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and with a wave of his hand, he put all the items in front of him into his bag.
No hesitation, upgrade directly.
Immediately afterwards, a series of pleasant prompts began to sound in Lei Xiao's ears.
【Congratulations, your "First-Level Magic Potion: Strengthening Pill" has been upgraded to 105 "First-Level Magic Potion: Strengthening Pill"! 】
…
【Congratulations, your "Second-Level Magic Potion: Charging Pill" has been upgraded to 103 "Second-Level Magic Potion: Charging Pill"! 】
【Congratulations, your "Second-Level Magic Potion: Blazing Pill" has been upgraded to "Second-Level Magic Potion: Blazing Pill" with 102 pieces! 】
【Congratulations, your "Second-Level Magic Potion: Earth Rock Pill" has been upgraded to 105 "Second-Level Magic Potion: Earth Rock Pill"! 】
【Congratulations, your "Second-Level Magic Potion: Holy Light Pill" has been upgraded to "Second-Level Magic Potion: Holy Light Pill" with 100 pills! 】
…
Just like that, after upgrading all twenty magic potions in one go, Lei Xiao noticed after some inspection.
First of all, the ten first-level magic potions, except for the first strengthening pill, the rest are all healing types.
After the upgrade, five pills, including the body-strengthening pill, have undergone quantitative changes, while the remaining five pills have undergone qualitative changes.
In other words, Lei Xiao obtained a total of more than 100 strengthening pills, more than 400 first-level healing potions, and 5 second-level healing potions.
Secondly, the ten second-level magic potions, the Charging Pill, the Blazing Flame Pill, the Earth Rock Pill, and the Holy Light Pill, have all undergone quantitative changes, each of which has reached more than 100 pills.
The other six second-level healing potions have all undergone qualitative changes and been upgraded to third-level healing potions.
“Not bad, except for those new potions that have undergone quantitative changes.
At present, my reserve of healing potions has not only added 410 first-level ones.
And the number of second-level ones has reached 343, while the number of third-level ones has increased to 10."
Nodding with satisfaction, Lei Xiao's mind moved, and the new space ring that shone with a faint splendor suddenly appeared in his hand.
Stroking the smooth ring body made of strange metal, Lei Xiao first opened the ring's attribute bar.
【Name: Eye of Holy Fall】(unbound)
【Level: Level 3? Excellence (Blue)】
【Defense Strength: None】
【Additional effect: Point to the space? Extremely "Any object without life breath can be stored and taken out at will, the space capacity is 50 cubic meters"]
【Note: This storage ring is carefully crafted by Leng Yan, a famous fourth-level space magician. It is extremely valuable and is an absolute symbol of noble identity and status.
It is also one of the common items that upper-class nobles show off to each other.】
“It is indeed 50 cubic meters of space. It is obviously enough for the daily life and combat of our strong men.”
Close the attribute bar, feel the shimmering bright ring, and feel the slightest coolness coming from the surface. Lei Xiao did not hesitate and started upgrading directly.
Soon, a familiar reminder reached his ears.
【Congratulations, your "Tier 3 Accessory: Eyes of the Holy Meteor" has been upgraded to 100 pieces of "Tier 3 Accessories: Eyes of the Holy Meteor"! 】
“Perfect! It really achieved the expected goal!”
Hearing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy on his face, and nodded with satisfaction.
At this point, the first auction we participated in can be said to have ended perfectly.
Next, Lei Xiao immediately gathered the eight subordinates Huzhang, Lin, Fang Hai, A Ling, A Bing, Chaoyan, Bai Wei, and Kaili in front of him.
With a wave of his hand, everyone was equipped with a sparkling storage ring.
“Thank you very much, Lord!”
On the other side, one after another accepted the ring handed over by Lei Xiao. The faces of the strong men on their side could not help but reveal a look of ecstasy, and they saluted in unison to Lei Xiao.
“You’re welcome, you can take these as well. You can use them as you see fit at critical moments.”
Following that, Lei Xiao waved his hand and piled all kinds of magic potions, magic scrolls and other valuable items onto the entire wooden table.
For a moment, I saw the long mahogany table, surrounded by fragrance and colorful, which made people feel dazzled.
Seeing this scene, everyone invariably felt a refreshing fragrance.
There is no doubt that it is the intoxicating smell of golden dragon.
Finally, under the thunderous aura of Lei Xiaohao, every subordinate present.
They all got an illusion cloak, a ring of concealment, five first-level healing potions, five second-level healing potions, five Wind Eye Pills, five Ice Return Pills, and a third-level magic scroll: Advanced Pyroblast.
Two volumes each of bullets, dark light burst, and light healing, as well as ten thousand gold dragon coins in change.
There is no doubt that these items alone, plus the storage ring itself, are obviously worth more than one million gold dragons.
Of course, for Chao Yan’s longing for the Blazing Pills, which can increase the effect of fire spells, Lei Xiao immediately gave him 30 of them.
“In this way, each of our main strong men has 50 cubic meters of storage space, as well as a lot of storage items.
From now on, whether you are taking risks, fighting, or on the battlefield, you will be able to be more at ease!"
Amidst the thanks from all the subordinates, Lei Xiao couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and nodded with satisfaction again.
Just like that, after all this is completed.
Kelly prepared a sumptuous dinner again, and her group simply started to feast in the luxurious living room.
During this process, the surveillance targets Klee and his son are currently at the same location in the Starry Sky Auction House and have not made any changes yet.
So, Lei Xiao ordered the Nanxing and Nanyue sisters to come back for dinner after changing shifts, and also equipped each of them with a brand new storage ring, as well as many of the above-mentioned reserves.
At this point, we have ten major strong men who have completed the equipment work of the storage ring.
“Lord, it’s almost time, the second auction is about to begin.”
In the huge reception room, after taking the last bite of cheesecake into his mouth.
Kelly happily touched the newly acquired storage ring on her green finger, and moved lightly in front of Lei Xiao.
“Then, let’s set off now.”
Hearing this, Lei Xiao put down the empty teacup in his hand and nodded slightly.
At this time, a look of expectation could not help but appear on Lei Xiao's face.
There is no doubt that the second auction that follows is the real highlight.
After all, those truly powerful nobles have not taken action before.
“As you command! Lord!”
On the other side, the surrounding strong men of our own side clasped their fists and responded in unison.
Next, after returning to the Starry Sky Auction House, Lei Xiao noticed.
At this time, the banquet here has also ended.
Most of the nobles and wealthy businessmen have returned to their seats, holding champagne or eating desserts, chatting and laughing with each other.
Only the young maids, either holding rags or brooms, are still doing the final cleaning work.
Seeing this, he nodded to Fang Hai and others beside him.
Lei Xiao first took Chaoyan, Kelly, and the other three people under the invisibility cloak, and started to walk towards his seat.
Just when Lei Xiao was sitting down, Baron Polly appeared on the auction stage again, surrounded by several ceremonial staff.
“Dear guests, good afternoon.
Standing before you is still your most loyal friend, Baron Polly, who loves auctions."
The middle-aged gentleman on the stage smiled and bowed gracefully.
While continuing: "Okay, I won't say much. Compared with this ordinary handsome face of mine.
I guess you are more interested in the rare auction items that will be available next.”
Telling a lukewarm joke, after changing the atmosphere in the audience.
Baron Polly first straightened the tie on his white shirt, and then said loudly: "I announce that the second joint auction of Fanyin City will now officially begin!"
With the warm applause from the audience, Baron Polly also activated his special magic projection.
Suddenly, the starry sky auction house, which was already hazy under the dark blue dome dotted with stars, became even more dreamlike.
Immediately afterwards, a ceremonial staff walked out of the stairs on the auction stage with professional cat steps.
At this time, Lei Xiao could clearly see that the ceremonial officer was holding a long sword box in his hands with great difficulty.
“Good guy, this good-looking ceremonial officer has actually reached the peak level of the first level. He has no problem fighting two or three ordinary strong men alone.
However, judging from his somewhat reluctant expression, the weapons in the sword case must be quite heavy, right?"
Feeling the aura emanating from the other party, Lei Xiao couldn't help but look slightly surprised.
On the other side, he opened the sword case and easily took out the weapon inside. Baron Polly smiled gracefully and began to show it.
Under the light of the light crystal inlaid on the auction table, a flaming red broad-edged sword caught everyone's eyes.
Looking carefully, this sword is obviously much thicker than an ordinary one-handed sword. The unusual color it exudes is reddish, as if it had just been taken out of the blacksmith's furnace. It looks quite special.
Just when Lei Xiao observed this place.
I saw Baron Poli on the stage, holding a long sword with one hand.
With the sound of "hoo", a blazing flame instantly rose from the sword body.
A large number of tiny sparks scattered out, and the flames flickered, reflecting a red glow around them.
Seeing this scene, some nobles and wealthy businessmen in the back row couldn't help but let out a series of exclamations.
“As you can see, this is a rather special magic weapon.
As long as energy is injected into it, even a strong person in the physics department can inspire the flames enchanted on the sword blade."
On the auction stage, Baron Polly waved his sword gently, drawing a scorching trajectory in mid-air.
He continued: "With this weapon, you will be in battle.
It is not impossible to have an additional means of defeating the enemy, or even to take the enemy by surprise and directly defeat him on the spot.
And, under certain circumstances.
This sword can also be used as a torch and fire source, making it a must-have helper for adventures. By then, holding a magic weapon in your hand, you will definitely become the most handsome guy in the team.
The most important thing is that this long sword itself has reached the level of a third-level weapon, and its various benefits can be said to be countless."
Speaking of this, Baron Polly smiled and said: "The base price of this sword is 30,000 gold dragons, and the price will be increased by 2,000 gold dragons each time. Please bid."
Dingle bell…Dingle bell…
As soon as Baron Polly finished speaking, the sound of silver bells rang out one after another around Lei Xiao.
Listening to the dense ringing of silver bells around him, Lei Xiao couldn't help but look thoughtful.
He had already learned about the detailed information about magic weapons before.
Although this special weapon allows a strong person in the physics department to use the magic attached to the weapon itself.
However, its practicality in combat is not very high.
First of all, the magic attached to the weapon is weak and it is difficult to break the energy shield on the third level and above strong people.
Secondly, activating the magic attached to the weapon also requires a lot of your own energy, which is not proportional to the damage it can cause.
Therefore, many strong people in the physics department disdain this kind of magic weapon. With all the extra energy, they might as well use their special skills again.
Furthermore, the energy fluctuations generated by the magic itself are very likely to cause the opponent to predict the owner's attack trajectory in advance, which will be self-defeating.
The most important thing is that the price of magic weapons of the same class is much higher than other weapons, and the price/performance ratio is really too low.
However, what cannot be denied is that it is just as Baron Polly said.
In some cases, this magic weapon does have other practical uses.
“All in all, this is a flashy, relatively rare, and expensive weapon.”
Looking at the flaming sword on the stage, Lei Xiao continued to think: "But, having said that.
Since it is a rare weapon, we will naturally not miss it. After all, the price is not a problem for us."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao smiled slightly and joined the bidding team.
Just like that, after five or six minutes of competition.
Lei Xiao finally beat the crowd with a price of 80,000 gold dragons and successfully pocketed this third-level magic sword.
Next, a large number of ordinary third-level equipment will appear one after another.
Most of them, Lei Xiao is very familiar with, naturally they are the 30 pieces provided by his side before.
In this process, we have experienced a series of interventions from our own side.
Each piece of equipment is priced at more than 30,000 gold dragons, which is almost 2 to 3 times the market price.
After all, for these aristocratic bosses, sometimes face is more important than the golden dragon.
Among them, the rich and fat aristocrat in the back row came out on top again and "grabbed" three pieces of equipment from Lei Xiao's hands. His fat face was beaming with joy, as if he had been beaten.
Every battle is won.
At the same time, Lei Xiao also successively acquired five pieces of third-level equipment not provided by his own side, which can be said to be quite rewarding.
“Alright everyone, the rare items listed below are the highlight of this auction. Please keep your eyes open, distinguished guests.”
Having said this with a smile, Baron Polly once again took a long and narrow brocade box and slowly opened it in a mysterious manner.
He began to introduce: "For example, this precious item is a skill scroll that seals a lost magic martial skill: Thunder Light Chasing Wind Slash!"
“It turns out to be a magic martial skill?” Hearing this, Lei Xiao couldn’t help but reveal a look of surprise and joy on his face.
