The auctioneer shouted loudly and raised his gavel high.
"One hundred and one hundred million dollars, twice."
The prices have gone completely crazy. No one wants to get involved in this war between madmen. Two rich madmen are fighting on the 24th and 25th. If ordinary people get involved... they will probably suffer!
Neo bit the root tightly, and the number plate marked "25" was almost deformed in his hands. He only had 100 million in his account. Although he still had some spare money in his hand, just as the kid next to him had thrown away before.
If you confront him, the other party's next bid will be 200 million, and he will have his head stepped on by others to gain authority, and he will still be the clown!
He leaned on the cushions of the seat, put down his number plate as if giving up, and took a deep breath that he had been holding for a long time, as if he wanted to expel all the resentment accumulated in his lungs out of his body.
"What a generous gesture, Brother Lu." Neo tilted his head and gave Lu Mingfei a not-so-good smile.
"...To each other, you are not bad at all, brother Neo. At least you can put down your number plate and praise me calmly, as if we are really good brothers who have a fateful friendship... I thought you were going to
In one second, he would pull out a Swiss Army Knife from under the seat and smear my neck with blood on the spot."
Lu Mingfei also turned around and looked at Neo for the first time this time, smiling meaningfully, who is more afraid of who than Yin and Yang?
However, based on the other party's words, he was basically certain that there was definitely something huge hidden behind this Neo - a force that was on the opposite side of the Secret Party.
"One hundred million and one US dollars, deal done. This set of alchemical swords is now the property of Mr. No. 24!" The auctioneer dropped his hammer, and the wooden hammer hit the auction table hard. It was heavier than any previous transaction.
, as if trying to nail through the heavy wood racket.
Neo stood up, turned around and left without saying a word, as if he had suddenly abandoned the alchemical sword that he had been determined to obtain before.
At the same time, the veiled assistant sealed the black box again, covering up the seven deadly sins. The set of swords will be transported to the backstage and paid for by Lu Mingfei and Sotheby's Auction House after the auction.
First hand delivery.
"Very good, Mingfei, you are more talented than I thought. The role of a nouveau riche is not suitable for you. Bid the price in the way you are comfortable with. We are determined to get the next piece of alchemy armor. Money is not a problem!" Put on the earphones!
After putting it on again, principal Ange's praise came.
"I'll try my best." Lu Mingfei nodded lightly.
On the stage, a huge cart was covered with a black curtain, which was pushed up by three auctioneer assistants. The headlights were turned down, but the curtain blocked all light sources, and the treasures on the cart were really hidden.
"This is the second lot of today's 'Unexpected Encounter', and it is also today's grand finale." Under the light, the auctioneer's white-gloved hand ran along the black velvet curtain, as if caressing a woman's skin.
Smooth.
"If the last set of alchemical swords and swords auctioned is the pinnacle of crafts, with excellent sharpness, then this auction is still at the top. It is art, a treasure, and a miracle of alchemical craftsmanship! I can't think of anything else.
There are no words to describe it, because in front of this lot, any gorgeous words seem to be redundant..." The auctioneer has a bright tongue, like a salesman selling health care products on the street, but his speaking skills are a hundred times better.
.
The last round of cold weather has passed, and the venue is obviously in a commotion again. The auctioneer nodded slightly with satisfaction. It seemed that his marketing was in place.
He firmly grasped a corner of the curtain and suddenly shook it open. At this time, the spotlight above his head also focused on the position where the curtain was lifted, and the spotlight was bright and dazzling.
"A piece of treasured art-level... alchemical armor!" The black cloth was torn open, and the contents inside were exposed to everyone's view.
The sound of gasping sounded from every corner of the hall, one after another. Everyone's buttocks subconsciously moved to the front of the chair, stretching their necks to reach it, as if they wanted to get closer to look at the things on the table.
My eyes can't wait to be glued to it.
On the cart is a display cabinet that is as tall as a person. The base is made of huanghuali wood and is square. The top of the display cabinet is made of five sides of explosion-proof glass. Sapphire blue armor is hung on a bronze pillar, and colorful gemstones are hung on it.
Inlaid on it, it deflects the crystal clear light in all directions, shining like glass.
"It's incredible. Even I have only heard about it and never seen its true appearance. No craftsman in the world can reproduce the ultimate alchemy craftsmanship at the Dragon King level. The moment you see it, your eyes will change.
It will be deeply locked." Ange's sigh sounded in the earphones.
Just as Ange said, Lu Mingfei was also deeply attracted by this beautiful armor. He seemed to hear gentle breathing on the armor.
"Is it beautiful?" A voice asked softly from the side.
"Beautiful... yes, but why are you here at this time?" Lu Mingfei lied and looked away. Neo had already left. In the originally empty seat 25, a delicate boy sat with his legs crossed.
That.
Lu Mingze was wearing an old-fashioned pure black tuxedo, and his square-top leather shoes had become old-fashioned lacquered ones. His hair was combed into a three-quarter parting with pomade, and he wore a single gold-rimmed glasses on his face.
He was holding a Gurka Black Dragon cigar in his hand and smoking...Compared to Lu Mingfei, his dress obviously complemented this aristocratic auction better, and there was no sense of incompatibility at all.
"Of course it's for that beautiful set of armor, brother..." Before Lu Mingfei could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lu Mingfei's wave.
"It's beautiful and dazzling, but it will cost you your life." Lu Mingfei said simply.
He is not stupid. No matter how beautiful and expensive that thing is, no matter how extraordinary its origins, it is still an external possession. If you can buy it with money, then buy it. If you can't buy it anymore, there is no need to waste your life to exchange it.
Lu Mingze was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile: "You are overthinking, brother, this thing is rare, but it is not worth a quarter of your life. Even if you want to trade with me, I will have a bad conscience.
After all, I'm probably the most innocent businessman in the world."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Then what are you doing here?" Lu Mingfei asked suspiciously.
"I'll be a commentator for you for free. You haven't called me all the time and I'm bored." Lu Mingze shook his head and lit his cigar on the sapphire blue armor in the display cabinet on the auction table. "These ignorant people
You guys don’t know the origin of this thing, but I know it clearly. If I don’t introduce it to my brother, no one in this world will explain to you how precious it is... even though it looks very expensive.”
"This thing... belongs to Xia Mi?" Lu Mingfei asked tentatively.
"Hey, brother, how did you know?" Lu Mingze was obviously shocked, "I haven't said a word yet. Brother, you will make me appear very incompetent as a commentator. After all, I am here to give back to the customer.
…”
"Because this armor has a very familiar smell, very similar to Xia Mi's." Lu Mingfei pointed at the armor.
"Are you a dog, brother!" Lu Mingze yelled, "No, with such a long distance and such thick glass, the dog's nose is not as sharp as yours. You must be a professionally trained military dog!"
"The 'taste' I mean refers to a feeling!" Lu Mingfei rolled his eyes, "The first time I saw this thing, I thought it should belong to Xia Mi, and it is only as beautiful as Xiao Longnu.
Isn’t the Dragon King worthy of such a magnificent armor?”
"Beautiful..." Lu Mingze also rolled his eyes, "You are probably the only one in this world who can describe creatures like the Four Kings as 'beautiful'. I really can't tell that you are still a face-controller, brother.
"
"Actually, I'm not that good-looking, but who doesn't like a cute creature like Little Dragon Girl? Everyone likes her. Didn't you see that my senior brother is fascinated by her with such a sultry personality? I bet, his hands
The Winnie the Pooh balloon has not been taken off yet." Lu Mingfei teased.
"It's Chu Zihang again, it's Chu Zihang again! Brother, you really never leave Chu Zihang. You might as well kick Xia Mi and go with Chu Zihang!" Lu Mingze's eyes were dark and his tone was dark.
complain.
"That won't work. My senior brother and I have normal sexual orientations. Xia Mi is already my designated future sister-in-law. In my opinion, she and my senior brother are a match made in heaven. One of them is flirtatious and the other is sultry. It's not a good match. Hey,
Senior brother has been lonely for so long and finally found a girl he can talk to. If anyone dares to stop him, I will kill him... If Jörmungandr dares to show her head, I will beat her until she dares not show her head!" Lu Mingfei clenched his fist and said fiercely.
explain.
Lu Mingze smiled as he listened to Lu Mingfei's heroic words. Aren't Jörmungandr and Xia Mi the same person? But he knew what Lu Mingfei meant. He was noncommittal. Xia Mi was different from Old Tang.
If you want a fully awakened dragon to live like a human...it's hard to reach the sky!
"You are so courageous, brother. You will beat the Dragon King till his face is bruised and dare not show his head!" Lu Mingze applauded Lu Mingfei vigorously, "But brother, you are really delaying my business. You won't kill even one Dragon King. Until now, I
The loss-making business I have done so far has produced no revenue at all!”
Lu Mingze put on a bitter look on his face that was about to cry.
"Okay, you will make some money, it's not yet time." Lu Mingfei said with a smile, "Hurry up, don't you want to introduce me to the armor on the stage?"
"Come on, I have to work hard for my life." Lu Mingze didn't have any impatience, "The Seven Deadly Sins were made by Norton. They are a set of alchemy swords forged to kill the four monarchs; and this set of armor
, was cast by Constantine as a gift to Jormungandr.”
"Old Tang's younger brother..." Lu Mingfei thought of the brass egg he stole and hid in the Bronze City under the Yangtze River, "Given it to Xia Mi? Did they have an affair? No, I remember four
All great kings are brothers and sisters..."
"They are brothers and sisters, but brother, haven't you learned about it in "Dragon Family Genealogy", how dragons are so... lewd." Lu Mingze smiled mockingly.
"What the hell, are they really having an affair?!" Lu Mingfei asked with widened pupils.
"I can't talk about adultery, but apart from their respective twins, the relationship between the two of them is indeed better than that of other Dragon Kings." Lu Mingze explained.
"That's good." Lu Mingfei patted his chest, "You continue."
"Although Jörmungandr possesses the power of the King of Earth and Mountains and the 'eye' to search for everything, her ability is indeed the weakest among the four kings, whether it is attack power or defense power...
It is said that she controls the 'authority', while Fenrir, the other king of the earth and mountains, controls the 'power'." Lu Mingze slowly told the secrets of the dragon clan, "So in order to make up for the shortcomings of the body,
Board, Constantine made this armor and gave it to her."
"Same origin as the Seven Deadly Sins, this armor is also entirely made of recycled metal. This is the top alchemical technology. You can create new metals purely according to your own will. Any alchemy master in history can only look up to this kind of metal.
And it only belongs to the supreme master of alchemy among the four monarchs, the King of Bronze and Fire. This armor can withstand the full blow of the Seven Deadly Sins!"
"Brother, I'm here to remind you not to suppress your bloodline. After all, in this world, the only one who can truly awaken this suit of armor is Jörmungandr himself and the four kings... and probably you are the only one." Lu Ming
Ze said softly.
"Yes, brother, who do you think you are? No matter how awesome you talk about this thing, it will break the armor. How dare you refuse to answer when you call him?" Lu Mingze snorted coldly, "Okay, brother.
, you can continue your auction, it’s time for me to leave.”
"Wait a minute...you haven't told me the name of this armor yet."
"I almost forgot." Lu Mingze patted his head, and then his figure disappeared, leaving only a dreamy voice.
"It has a dreamy name...'Whisper of the Earth'."
"The whisper of the earth..." Lu Mingfei read the name softly.
At the same time, the hall was noisy again, and the atmosphere increased visibly to the naked eye. The auctioneer spoke generously on the auction stage, introducing how this set of armor was not only beautiful and delicate, but also light and hard. When they tested it, they used fire and knives.
It can't be damaged at all by cutting, freezing, or flooding. It's a truly awesome treasure.
However, just when many guests expressed their willingness to pay a high price to get it and were about to bid, the host's words were like a bucket of cold water poured in their face.
"Everyone, I am very happy that you have shown sincere enthusiasm for this lot, but I must tell you that the seller specifically stated two additional conditions when consigning this lot to our Sotheby's auction house."
The master raised his hands and pressed down, trying to steady the guests' flood of bids.
"What are the conditions?" In the audience, a guest who had previously asked for 50 million couldn't help but ask.
"First, the starting price of this auction is no less than... 100 million US dollars!"
The whole place was silent, and then there was a boiling uproar. This set of armor is good-looking, and no one really wears such an armor to show off in this era, right? If it is just for collection and display... 100 million, wouldn't it?
Too exaggerated?
"Second, the person who can take away this armor must have a bloodline pure enough to elicit its...response!"
