Most people had a trace of confusion in their eyes. Mrs. Ollie's name was quite famous in the southern aristocratic circle, so everyone knew something about this wealthy widow. For such a
It is very strange for a person who has no martial arts skills at all and no descendants of his family to practice martial arts. It is very strange to bid for such a scroll.
If it were normal times, those who have a good relationship with Mrs. Oly among the people would probably ask a few questions, but it is impossible to do so during the auction. Because the Earl of Lyle personally set the rules, every auction will be
It must be done quickly. If you want to grab this treasure from everyone, the only thing you can do is to keep bidding.
So everyone only hesitated for a moment, and then the bidding came in an endless stream:
"300!"
"350!"
"420!"
…
In the blink of an eye, the price of this scroll skyrocketed. Dulan was dumbfounded when he saw it. As a poor man, he had less than ten purple dragon coins in total, most of which were obtained from the purple-clothed priest De.
The wealth of these dragon nobles opened Dulan's eyes. At the same time, he also secretly thought about this truth in his heart: war is about manpower and wealth. Although the people in black can be self-sufficient, overall wealth
They are so different from the dragons.
"It seems that I have to find a way to make money in the future." Dulan smiled bitterly in his heart. In just one minute, the energy pool expansion scroll, which was worth no more than 500 purple dragon coins, was priced at a sky-high price of 650 coins.
.
This price is already ridiculously high. Although it is just a drop in the bucket for Mrs. Ollie's own wealth, it is already a very scary figure for others. Most people showed a look of frustration and gave up the competition.
.
So in the end, there were only three people left fighting for this scroll. Except for Mrs. Olly, who was held hostage by Duran, the other two people were the president of Nolas, the largest armed chamber of commerce in Big Pudding City. As we all know, Nolas
The Lars Chamber of Commerce monopolizes the refined iron and salt business from Big Pudding City to the White Delta and most areas in the north. Rumor has it that these businessmen who are desperate for profit are also secretly working with the Nagas entrenched in the inland sea and the pirates outside the Thousand Stones Islands.
Doing business. The eldest son of Mr. Pete Nolas, the owner of the Nolas Chamber of Commerce, is a famous and talented swordsman. He was promoted to the golden realm at a young age. This scroll is of great significance to Mr. Nolas’ eldest son.
Obviously a great gift.
The other bidder was a northern noble who came here to play. It was said that he had a great background. It was easy to tell from his sword that he was also a golden swordsman with great strength.
"I offer 700 Purple Dragon Coins. To be honest, this price has far exceeded the value of this scroll." The representative of Noras Chamber of Commerce said calmly: "If it exceeds this price, I will give up the offer..."
But before he finished speaking, a crisp voice said decisively: "800 Purple Dragon Coins!"
Everyone was in an uproar immediately.
The representative of the Noras Chamber of Commerce was livid. He squinted his eyes thoughtfully and glanced at the lady who had been raising the price, and finally said nothing.
On the contrary, the Northland noble seemed to be quite interested in Mrs. Oli. He smiled lazily and said: "900."
Ollie's expression remained unchanged and he was just about to continue bidding when the northern noble suddenly said: "I will pay 900 purple dragon coins to buy this scroll and give it to that lady."
Mrs. Ollie was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say. Everyone also showed surprised looks. Seeing Ollie's silence, the auctioneer simply decided on the auction price.
Facing such a result, Dulan was a little speechless.
Fortunately, after his disguise was seen through by Ollie, he changed his face and turned into a stranger. No one recognized him. They only thought that he was Mrs. Ollie's latest male favorite, and no one knew him.
Follow him.
Bidding soon started again for the next auction item, which was a rare hundred-refined armor, but Dulan had the Time Armor and was completely uninterested in it.
During the bidding process, the waiter delivered the scroll to Mrs. Oli, and during this process, Duran's vigilance was raised to the extreme. If this woman had any uninteresting actions, he would not do it.
Would you mind taking her life? Fortunately, she spared her life and took away the scroll without saying a word. After everyone's attention was attracted by the new exhibit, she handed it to Dulan's hands.
..
Dulan accepted the scroll with satisfaction, but found a note underneath the box containing the scroll.
Du Lan looked at the note and couldn't help but smile and said: "It seems that your charm, madam, is really not small."
When Oli saw that Duran no longer looked fierce, her heart that was about to jump out of her throat finally calmed down a little. She smiled charmingly and said: "Thank you for the compliment. Is there anything else you want?"
What?"
Duran nodded and said, "Wait a minute, I think it will appear soon."
A look of uneasiness flashed across Mrs. Ollie's face.
…
In the corridor on the second floor, in a corner that Dulan didn't pay attention to, a girl frowned.
The veil obscured most of her face, but her eyes, as bright as the moon, were full of doubts and surprise at this moment.
If someone was close enough, they might be able to hear her mumbling:
"How could it be him?"
"Dulan?"
Jane clasped her hands tightly in front of her chest. She stared at the strange face next to Mrs. Olly, and a strange rune appeared in the depths of her eyes.
All disguises were removed, leaving only Dulan's stern face.
"Why did he come?" Jane bit her lip, filled with doubts.
She took a step back, turned around and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, I have something to tell you."
Who would have thought that at this moment, a valet next to Count Lyle suddenly approached and whispered a few words in the earl, causing Count Lyle's expression to change immediately.
"Your Highness, if you have anything to do, please talk to me later." Earl Lyle smiled reluctantly, said "I'm sorry," and turned around and hurried downstairs.
Jane was stunned for a moment. Ever since she came to Big Pudding City, she had never seen Count Lyle acting so out of sorts.
"If you have something to do, Princess, please tell me." On the other side of the corridor, a handsome young man came over. He smiled friendly at Jane: "Father, it seems that you have some things to deal with. I'm really sorry."
"Is that so?" Jane turned around and focused her eyes on Dulan, as if she wanted to see through him. "Well, it's not an important thing, forget it."
Jules smiled thoughtfully, stood side by side with Jane, and cast his gaze downwards.
…
At this moment, Dulan did not realize that his disguise tonight had been noticed by the second woman. Most of his attention was focused on the auctioneer. As time passed, the auction items were auctioned one after another.
The quality and standards are also constantly improving, and under the deliberate control of experienced auctioneers, the rhythm is becoming more and more intense.
"It's almost done." Dulan thought silently in his mind.
"The next exhibit will be a rare treasure. Again, a rare treasure."
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Deep Sea Crown is the legendary treasure of the King of the Raging Sea. I believe you all know its value without me having to say more."
"Starting price, 900 purple dragon coins."
With the auctioneer's firm words, the blue gauze covering the treasure was lifted——
Immediately, there was a sudden inhalation sound in the hall, and everyone's eyes were instantly attracted to the dark blue crown.
Dazzling and charming blue light radiates from the inside of the crown. This treasure is made of pure gold with rigorous workmanship. The top of the crown is inlaid with thirteen priceless sapphires, each symbolizing a kind of sea tribe. Crown
The exposed areas are outlined with delicate brush strokes to create clusters of deep sea cloud patterns. Their beauty is truly astonishing!
"2,000 Purple Dragon Coins..." Under Dulan's instruction, Mrs. Ollie was the first to shout out the offer without hesitation.
But before everyone could recover, a sharp roar suddenly came from the ceiling. In an instant, several terrifying black shadows suddenly fell down, and the hall immediately fell into chaos! (To be continued.)
