Seeing Lin Li shaking his head, Varian felt slightly disappointed, but he didn't say anything more and led Lin Li and others into the front hall of the Elf Theater. The front hall of the Grand Theater was quite large, and those who arrived early could
While waiting for the auction to take place, I talked about various topics with acquaintances.
Although some people with sharp eyes saw Varian leading people in, no one went up to say hello because they knew very well that they were not qualified to talk to Varian. At the same time, they also had great doubts in their hearts and made speculations.
What was the origin of the young man who was with Varian? Because they could clearly see that Varian was actually leading the way.
You know, not to mention the people in the front hall, even the distinguished guests upstairs rarely receive such treatment. Who is Varian? Even Arathor, the lord of Roland City, treats him the same way.
I have always been very respectful. But now, this Varian, who is very famous in the Qingfeng Plains, is actually guiding such a young man who has never seen him before. I am afraid that even if the king comes here, he will not get such treatment.
Bar.
There are many people in the front hall, most of them are leaders or representatives of some large and medium-sized forces in the Qingfeng Plain. There are families that have been inherited for thousands of years, and there are also forces that have risen in the past hundred years. Anyone who comes out will not be as powerful as
Senna was a little worse, but he didn't even have the qualifications to talk to Varian.
Lin Li just took a quick glance and saw a few familiar faces. They seemed to have gone to the Tower of Twilight to give gifts to Wilkinson and the others. Could it be that by participating in the auction today, they were also preparing gifts for Wilkinson and the others?
?Lin Li thought a little funny in his heart.
Walking up the stairs to the second floor, you will find a small hall that is slightly smaller but elegantly and luxuriously decorated. From the exquisite magic crystal lamp above your head, to the magnificent purple cashmere carpet under your feet, to the elf-style furnishings.
Among the decorations that Lin Li had ever seen, I am afraid that only the underground palace built by Osric could be compared to it.
There were also some guests talking in the small hall. To Lin Li, it seemed that there were more acquaintances here than downstairs. The city lord of Doland was leading his son Rathoric to talk with the city lord of Roland, Arathor.
He was looking very happy. The boy Rasolik stared at Ivan, Alasso's daughter next to him, and refused to look away for a moment. Fortunately, that was it, otherwise he would not have known what to do when he saw Lin Li coming in.
Something happened.
Master Gazza, the president of the blacksmith union, had a powerful voice and a loud voice. He patted the shoulder of a young man with a bitter look and seemed to be saying some words of encouragement. The young man's eyes were filled with helplessness.
He looked at his father next to him, but he didn't dare to feel dissatisfied at all.
"President Feyre, do you want to chat here, or go directly to your VIP room first?" Varian originally wanted to introduce Lin Li, but when he saw that Lord Doland actually brought his son again,
, and immediately gave up the idea of leaving Lin Li here.
Although there were a few acquaintances present, the friendship was really limited. They could only exchange a few words when they met, which was far from the level of sitting together and chatting. So after saying hello to a few acquaintances, Lin Li entered the VIP room with Varian.
.
It is said to be a VIP room, but the area is actually not small at all. Lin Li brought Wilkinson and several other senior pharmacists with him this time, and there was no feeling of crowding at all when he entered. Varian introduced it like a show of merit.
Only then did I realize that this VIP room was different from the others. How could His Majesty the King watch a play alone? There must be at least a dozen people waiting around.
Varian didn't think there was anything wrong with arranging such the most distinguished VIP room for Lin Li and others. You know, there are as many as six senior pharmacists in this group, and these six
The senior pharmacist also clearly showed Lin's attitude of taking the lead.
If he were just the owner of the Tower of Twilight and the president of the Light Breeze Plains Magic Guild, Varian would naturally not have to lower his profile so low. Even if there were six senior pharmacists, he would not have to go to such a level. However,
, the six senior pharmacists, in Varian's eyes, are not just senior pharmacists, but also represent a pharmacists organization no less than the pharmacists union.
What's more, could the person who can make six senior pharmacists the leader be the president of an ordinary magic union? Varian has not seen the arrogance of these senior pharmacists, and I am afraid that he has faced ordinary people.
The legendary strong man may not be able to make them lower their heads. Basically, the only one who can truly convince them is that kind of person. Although he did not get the exact answer from Lin Li, Varian knew
This young magician is anything but simple.
After letting Lin Li and others take their seats, Varian personally summoned the waiter and brought rare fruit drinks and other dishes in exquisite vessels to the table. It can be said that in terms of hospitality, Varian always puts the highest priority on everything.
We should do it according to the standards and try our best not to make Lin Li and others feel the slightest slight.
"President Feyre, if you are dissatisfied with anything, please feel free to tell them that I will excuse you for the time being," Varian said respectfully. After all, he is the master of this place, and no matter how much he values people like Lin Li,
It is also impossible to ignore other distinguished guests.
Lin Li waved his hand indifferently, not showing any signs of being flattered by such a reception. With his current state of mind, whether this environment was good or bad, it was actually difficult to arouse any feeling in his heart.
Fluctuated. In the view of Wilkinson and others, as Lin Li is a pharmacy master, such hospitality is more than deserved.
After Varian left, since the auction had not yet started, Wilkinson and others took this time to ask Lin Li for some pharmacy questions. No one's success is accidental. Although Wilkinson and others are talented,
They are better than ordinary people, but this attitude of always thinking about learning is an important reason why they can achieve what they do today.
Although Lin Li was not a real teacher, he would never be bored by Wilkinson and others' eagerness to learn. After all, the higher their level, the easier it would be for him.
Shortly after Varian left, there was a slightly noisy sound from downstairs, and people who had been waiting in the front hall outside for a long time began to come in one after another. It seemed that it was almost time for the auction to start. After a while, the entire hall downstairs
, nearly two thousand seats were occupied.
Since it was originally a grand theater, the side of the VIP room facing the stage was completely open. Lin Li sat there and looked left and right, and everyone in the other VIP rooms could also see clearly.
Unlike the scene below where the seats were packed, there were many empty VIP rooms, and the VIPs who came were probably not even half full. However, this does not mean that Varian’s auction failed this time, but because of the VIPs’
Status is determined by status, and it does not mean that you must collect the amount. If the standard is set low, the status of this VIP will be worthless, and it may even feel like an insult to oneself.
Lin Li was not very interested in the identities of the other VIPs, so he only took a cursory glance and turned his attention back to the stage downstairs where the curtain had not yet been opened. However, for Lin Li, this one was arranged in the most distinguished VIP room.
young magician, but the other distinguished guests were quite curious.
This is not the first time that Varian has held an auction at the Elf Theater, but unless the real King comes, this VIP room is never open to other people. But today, it is obvious that the people sitting there,
He is not the king of the Kingdom of France, but a very young magician.
In fact, although due to the location, the people around him could not see Lin Li's appearance so clearly. However, people who had had contact with Lin Li, such as Arasso, the Lord of Roland City, or Master Gazza, the president of the Blacksmiths Guild, etc.
, they still feel that the person sitting there seems familiar. However, based on their knowledge, they would never think of comparing a person who is so valued by Varian with the person who has just been established less than a year ago.
Contact the president of the Magic Guild.
The curtain on the stage slowly opened. With a faint smile on his face, Varian strode to the center of the stage, saluted slightly to the guests in the audience, and began the opening remarks of the auction. Varian was right.
Not much, just a few words of thanks for coming. After saying that, he left and was replaced by the chief auctioneer of Time Consignment House. The auction officially began.
At this time, as the owner of this auction, Varian returned to the VIP room. He knew that no matter how great the strength and potential the Tower of Dusk had with the support of the mysterious pharmacist organization behind it,
, but after all, it has just been established for less than a year. The auction he is holding now has brought together most of the large and medium-sized forces in the Qingfeng Plain and even beyond. For the young president of the Tower of Twilight, it is just right.
It is an opportunity to get to know and understand.
Varian would not miss any opportunity to enhance his relationship with the Tower of Dusk, so he rushed over after arranging the auction.
Lin Li actually doesn't care much about this. With the current strength of the Twilight Tower, many of the so-called large and medium-sized forces downstairs will basically not pose the slightest threat to the Twilight Tower. But now that Varian is here
, it wouldn’t hurt to listen anyway, so I left it to him.
Varian sat down next to Lin Li, and on the stage downstairs, the first auction item had just been moved to the display stand in the center of the stage, a rectangular wooden box about half a person tall. Judging from the color,
This wooden box is quite old, and the carved patterns on the surface seem to be worn away. Looking at such a simple wooden box, people in the audience who did not take the auction brochure in advance began to guess what was inside.
.
The auctioneer did not make people wait any longer, because this was just a back-up auction item, and it was not worth wasting too much time on. After opening the wooden box, the auctioneer took a step back, and there was a wave above the stage.
The beam of light shone on the auction item, and a sound of inhalation suddenly came from the audience.
On the display stand, the wooden box was opened to all sides, revealing the auction items contained inside. A set of dark golden dragon scale armor shone with strange light in the beam of light. The auctioneer did not need to introduce too much, almost everyone in the audience had
Memories of a distant history come to mind.
The Dark Ages had just ended. When the coalition of oppressed races divided up the fruits of victory after overthrowing the high elves, they fell apart due to the distribution of interests. Everyone believed that their contribution was the greatest, but no one could really convince anyone.
In the end, all problems can only be solved by force.
After humans occupied most of the Anriel continent, people thought that the belated peace was finally coming, but then there was another split within humans. The era ruled by the high elves was called the Dark Ages, and
This period of war and chaos after the Dark Ages is called the darkness before dawn.
Of course, this period was not without its merits. There is a saying that heroes emerge from troubled times. During this period of constant war, a large number of legendary heroes also emerged, leaving a lot of legacy for later bards.
A story that has been told for thousands of years.
The owner of the dark golden dragon scale armor on the display stand was the Grand Duke Hedrick who guarded the Breeze Plains for the Kingdom of France during that chaotic period and repelled the invasion of the Kingdom of Leiding countless times. Now, in Dorland,
In his library, there is also an oil painting depicting Duke Hedrick commanding a battle, and what he is wearing in the painting is this Twilight Dragon Armor.
Therefore, although this Twilight Dragon Armor had disappeared for nearly a thousand years after Duke Heydrick, its appearance in front of everyone immediately reminded them of the legendary story of that person in that period of history.
At that time, Duke Hedrick was working for the royal family of the Kingdom of France. He was one of the few legendary powerhouses, and his strength reached around level 22. Although at that time, almost all the legends on the Anriel continent
The strong ones are somewhat eclipsed by the light of the Mage God Gresco. However, for the people on the Breeze Plains, Grand Duke Hedrick is definitely an exception.
When a person enters the legendary realm, in a sense, he is already separated from the category of ordinary humans. In the eyes of the legendary powerhouse, ordinary people are like ants, and no one cares about the life and death of ants. Heidrick did
As a legendary strongman, even though he is only a sword master, his strength may not be as good as that of magicians of the same legendary realm, but he still has a long lifespan.
Although the Holy Realm is somewhat elusive and unattainable, as long as you live there will be hope, even a slim hope. Therefore, any legendary strongman, even though he has incomparable strength, cherishes his own power more than ordinary people.
Life. As long as there is no irresolvable hatred, battles between legendary strongmen will rarely lead to life-and-death situations without leaving any room for mercy.
