At this moment, the surprise on Lei Xiao's face was beyond words.
There is no doubt that for him, who is both a magician and a martial artist.
This auction item is as if it was tailor-made!
Looking at the hand of Baron Polly not far away, slowly appeared, a small purple scroll exuding a faint splendor.
In his excitement, Lei Xiao took a sip of the sweet fruit wine handed to Chao Yan and couldn't help but look thoughtful.
Through his increasing understanding of the world, he understood clearly.
This method of making skill scrolls and potion formulas is quite similar, both are extremely difficult and cumbersome.
It not only requires the maker to be thoroughly familiar with the skill itself, but also to practice it to a great level.
Furthermore, it takes a lot of time to use special energy operation methods to engrav all aspects of the skills on special scrolls in detail.
This production process often needs to be calculated in years, and it also consumes a lot of energy from the manufacturer.
In such a long period of time, a strong person with good skills can completely teach others in a more convenient way, by teaching by words and deeds, to achieve the same thing.
So, compared to the human race.
Skill scrolls are often more popular among races with longer lifespans, such as elves and dwarves.
There is also a theory that the method of making skill scrolls originated from these other races and then spread to the human race.
Because of this, in the human kingdoms, skill scrolls are very rare.
Hence, the price can be said to be very high.
However, even though its effect is magical, it can instantly master an unfamiliar skill.
However, for most strong people.
It would be more practical to learn skills from a master slowly.
After all, if it is converted into time cost.
So, the time cost of buying a skill scroll and slowly saving money.
The cost of time is much greater than that of directly learning skills from a teacher.
Of course, for people like Lei Xiao who are not short of money, it is exactly the opposite.
This kind of scroll that can learn skills instantly is naturally a perfect thing!
“The most important thing is that this is an extremely rare magical martial arts book.
Ordinary strong people cannot learn it even if they obtain it, so it is just suitable for people like me who have both magic and martial arts to use it!"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but rubbed his hands excitedly.
On the other side, I saw Baron Polly on the auction stage, who first smiled gracefully.
Then he said: "Haha, okay everyone, as the saying goes, rare things are valuable. As for other things, I don't need to say more, right?
Magical martial arts and skill scrolls. The overlap of these two rare labels is enough to prove how precious this item is.
Especially for some distinguished guests who like to collect, it is a highly valuable collection.
Therefore, the base price of this item is 100,000 gold dragons, and the price will be increased by 5,000 gold dragons each time. Please start bidding.”
As soon as Baron Polly said these words, a crisp sound of silver bells sounded all around Lei Xiao.
At this moment, Lei Xiao noticed.
The nobles who pressed the silver bell were basically concentrated in the booth area in the front row.
Even those powerful nobles who have never taken action before have begun to take action.
After all, this kind of magic martial arts skill scroll is too rare. For some nobles who like to show off, the collection value far outweighs its practicality.
As for the ordinary nobles and businessmen in the back row, they could only sigh in surprise and shake their heads helplessly.
For them with limited funds, this is undoubtedly an extremely luxurious behavior.
Just like this, when the price of the skill scroll climbed all the way to 260,000 gold dragons, and the rate of increase began to slow down.
Lei Xiao then rang the silver bell leisurely, and finally, at the price of 300,000 gold dragons, he successfully pocketed this magical skill scroll.
“At this stage, after all the thirty pieces of third-level equipment have been released.
Excluding the purchased magic weapons and five other pieces of third-level equipment, I already own a total of nearly 3.2 million golden dragons.
Therefore, it is not a problem to spend only 300,000 gold dragons, but it feels a bit too cheap."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this in a leisurely way.
His move once again caused a commotion among the surrounding nobles, making everyone look sideways and secretly admire in their hearts.
There is no doubt that most of the nobles present only carry 500,000 to 600,000 golden dragons.
And our side spent a total of 850,000 gold dragons on just one storage ring and one skill scroll.
Such a huge sum of money is already the total income of a powerful aristocratic family over the past few years.
What's more, I bought a magic skill scroll that is almost useless at the sky-high price of 300,000 gold dragons...
At this time, he looked at Lei Xiao who looked indifferent.
In the minds of these ordinary nobles, there is only one word left: trench!
You know, this money is enough to maintain a garrison of a thousand people, which will last for several years.
At this moment, many nobles, including our two targets, Tina and Ryan, all looked at us with admiration.
On the other side, a group of powerful nobles in the front row, headed by the eldest elder of the Xuansen family, cast disdainful looks one after another.
Hey, he is just a dandy kid from some noble family, sneaking out and spending money extravagantly.
This pushy young man has probably used up all the golden dragons in his body, right?
Hahaha, it seems that the next auction will have one less naive competitor.
“Okay, distinguished guests, please take a look at the next auction item.”
Soon, Baron Polly took another metal tray.
On the tray, there are two round fruits that are dark blue in color.
Looking carefully, the surface of this dark blue fruit is covered with light golden lines.
What’s even more surprising is that these golden lines sometimes flicker on their own, just like the endless dreamy starry sky.
“This is a pair of star-striped fruits that have just been picked.”
Smiling slightly, Baron Polly took a deep breath while carefully holding up the silver plate.
He continued: "This magical fruit will only mature on a full moon night, when the stars are most dazzling, and it will only grow on the top of the mountain closest to the starry sky.
If you don’t pick it off in time, it will fall off and rot automatically at dawn. It can be said to be extremely delicate.”
Having said this, Baron Polly first handed the tray in his hand back to the female ceremonial staff next to him.
Then, he put on a white glove, gently lifted up a star-shaped fruit, turned around and showed it: "I'll tell you all.
The design of this huge starry sky auction house was inspired by this rare fruit.
At the same time, this strange fruit is also one of the necessary materials for refining various third-level magic potions.
At this point, I think all the alchemists here should understand the preciousness of this thing better than I do, right?"
As soon as Baron Polly said this, several old nobles in the audience who wore alchemists on their chests all swallowed and nodded with fiery eyes.
On the other side, looking at the strange fruit in Baron Polly's hand, Lei Xiao's face once again showed a look of surprise.
There is no doubt that this star pattern fruit is one of the necessary materials for refining the third-level magic potion formula that we have, the star pattern magic pill!
“If we can mass-produce this kind of potion, which is similar to the Rose Focus Pill and can permanently increase strength, and then upgrade it.
Then, as long as the quality is transformed into a fourth-level magic potion, and combined with the sacred blessing pill obtained previously.
Our own third-level peak experts can naturally reach the level of the fourth-level experts!"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao put down the goblet in his hand while being overjoyed and continued to think.
“At this stage, through Lin’s unremitting efforts, we have collected more than half of the materials for refining the Star Pattern Magic Pill.
However, there is still no news about the most important and rarest material, the Star Pattern Fruit.
If you can get this pair of star-marked fruits into your bag, then find the last few relatively common materials.
Then, the successful production of the Star Pattern Magic Pill is naturally very close!"
At the same time Lei Xiao realized this with joy.
Not far away, Baron Polly was seen carefully putting the star fruit in his hand back into the tray.
Then he smiled and said: "The base price of this pair of star-marked fruits is 120,000 gold dragons, and the price will be increased by 5,000 gold dragons each time. Please start."
Immediately afterwards, the gray-haired aristocratic old alchemists rushed to press the silver bells in their hands.
You must know that this kind of star pattern fruit is extremely rare in the Cold Flame Kingdom.
Whether you are refining magic potion yourself or using it as an exchange, it can be said to be the hard currency among alchemists.
For an alchemist, nature is a rare good thing!
Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and then nodded to Fang Hai who was waiting not far away.
Before this, due to the storage ring and magical martial arts, I was bidding on these big items myself.
So, in order to be less eye-catching, it is natural that the table next to Fang Hai should take action.
On the other side, Fang Hai understood and immediately pressed the silver bell on the table.
Dingle bell…Dingle bell…
“Then, the ownership of these two star-shaped fruits belongs to the distinguished guest at table 25!”
Just like that, after a fierce competition for ringing the bell.
With the magnetic voice of Baron Polly, and with the support of our own strong financial resources.
Fang Hai finally managed to get two star-patterned fruits into his own pocket at the price of 250,000 golden dragons.
At this time, the old alchemists who had failed in the bidding glanced at Fang Hai angrily and at the same time, they could be said to have a lot of thoughts and were very angry.
Speaking of ordinary auction items, they can't compete with the young man at table 8.
As for alchemy materials, they can't compete with the burly old man of the same age at table 25.
These noble lords, who together are hundreds of years old and usually sit high in their respective fiefdoms, are here to be the atmosphere team?
“Distinguished guests, next, everyone must keep their eyes open.
The next auction item is one of the highlights of this auction."
On the auction stage, Baron Polly stroked his curly beard and once again showed his iconic mysterious smile.
I saw him taking a long wooden tray from the hands of the ceremonial staff on the side, and then slowly opened the golden silk covering it.
The next second, a staff with a strong flash of color caught everyone's eyes.
Looking carefully, it is a short cyan metal staff, about one meter in length.
At the very top of the staff, there is a fist-sized, crystal clear purple crystal inlaid in it.
The most eye-catching thing is that a faint cold air rises from the surface of the blue crystal, and then forms a hazy mist around it, which looks quite strange.
Because of the brilliance exuded by this staff, it is obviously stronger than the previous third-level equipment.
So, it immediately caused a low voice in the audience.
“As you can see, this is a fourth-level staff forged by a well-known magic craftsman.”
Looking at the surprised expressions of the nobles in the audience with satisfaction, Baron Polly smiled gracefully.
He continued: "What is even more valuable is that the top of this staff is inlaid with an extremely rare ice gem.
Thus, in addition to the original spell increase and the basic function of accelerating spell casting speed.
This staff also has a considerable amplifying effect on ice and water magic.
Moreover, it has quite good resistance when facing ice and water magic.
All in all, any magician with any attribute will immediately become the envy of everyone if he possesses this magic weapon.
Of course, its price is naturally not cheap either.”
Speaking of this, Baron Polly gently waved the auction items in his hand to display them.
He continued: "Okay, without further ado, the base price of this staff is 300,000 gold dragons, and the price will be increased by 20,000 gold dragons each time. Please go ahead."
“Has level four equipment finally appeared?”
Looking at the fiery eyes of the nobles around him, Lei Xiao smiled lightly.
For him, there are two level 6 weapons, a level 5 sword Rolandel, and nearly seventy pieces of level 4 equipment in the storage space.
This fourth-level staff was naturally not enough to make him scream in surprise.
“But, having said that, this is still a brand new, unupgraded fourth-level weapon.
No matter what changes occur after the upgrade, it will be a great help to our current side.”
Thinking of this and listening to the dense ringing of silver bells around him, Lei Xiao nodded slightly to Fang Hai again, gesturing for him to join the bidding crowd.
Just like this, about five minutes passed, accompanied by bursts of crisp sounds.
The price of this fourth-level staff has climbed to the level of 600,000 gold dragons.
At this time, Lei, who raised the goblet again, and Xiao looked around leisurely, and noticed.
At this stage, the only ones still bidding are our own Fanghai.
There are only a few powerful nobles left, headed by the eldest elder of the Xuansen family.
On the other side, during this process, seeing that Lei Xiao had not rang the bell, the elder of the Xuansen family could not help but reveal a proud smile on his face.
It seems that this stupid young man really has no money!
Next, it is naturally time for them, the high-ranking nobles, to play their part.
However, before Elder Xuansen was happy for long, he was surprised to find out.
At table No. 25 in the back row, a burly old man appeared out of nowhere. Not only had he snatched those stubborn alchemy materials, but now he had to fight for the fourth-level staff!
In this way, as the price continued to rise, the cold sweat on the forehead of the eldest elder of the Xuansen family also began to increase.
“The price is so high, but the old man at table 25 still rings the bell without hesitation and doesn’t care at all about the golden dragon in his pocket?”
At the same time that ten thousand frost sheep were rushing past in his heart, Great Elder Xuansen discovered again.
At this time, it seemed that he and Fang Hai were the only ones still ringing the bell.
“This damn old thing, the price is about to reach 800,000 gold dragons, why don’t you stop?”
Looking at Fang Hai who was like a ruthless bell-ringing machine not far away, the veins on Elder Xuansen's head popped out, and he cursed in his heart: "Do you really think that money is brought by strong winds?
Speaking of which, why did you encounter so many difficulties today?"
There is no doubt that although the Great Elder Xuansen has just broken through the shackles and reached the level of a fourth-level powerhouse, he has already entered the ranks of Lengyan's top nobles.
But after all, time is still short, and most of the funds in hand come from the Xuansen family and are restricted by the family. Therefore, naturally, they cannot compete with themselves as they wish.
“Hey, let’s just give it to the other party this time.”
A moment later, when the price really reached 800,000 gold dragons, the trembling old hand of the Xuansen family elder finally did not raise it again, but spat at the same time.
At the same time, he comforted himself in his heart and said: "That's all, there is still a chance down there. Now there should be very few left of these two stupid golden dragons, the old one and the young one.
Next, it’s naturally time for me to show off!”
“Well, congratulations to our Lord, Table No. 25, for acquiring the ownership of this fourth-level staff for the price of 800,000 gold dragons!”
Immediately, Baron Polly’s loud voice rippled back and forth in the huge starry sky auction house again.
“Distinguished guests, the moment has finally come.
What will appear next is the last item in our second auction.”
Immediately afterwards, Baron Polly on the auction stage once again revealed his iconic voice and spoke rather mysteriously.
In the passage dedicated to the auction stage, there was also a ceremonial person holding a tray and began to walk out.
However, judging from the deliberately slowed down pace, it was obviously done deliberately for the sake of spectacle, which could be said to whet the appetite of the nobles in the audience.
“Is it finally the last auction item?”
Seeing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but show a look of great interest.
I thought to myself: "Since it is the finale item of the second game.
Then, it must be something extraordinary, right?”
Aware of this, a look of expectation suddenly appeared on Lei Xiao's face.
On the other side, after receiving the tray handed by the etiquette officer, Baron Polly smiled gracefully again and slowly opened the golden silk cloth covering the tray.
