On the same spot, under the gaze of many people, an auction was still beginning.
However, compared to the first thing taken out, the value of the second thing is much lower. It is just some art collected by the ancient elven nobles. It may be very precious to the mortal nobles, but it is not worth it to the wizards.
Mention, let alone a formal wizard like Adil.
Except for a few wizards who have a special hobby for this kind of thing, few wizards would ask a price.
In the end, the second auction item was bought by a middle-aged wizard in red robes for five magic stones.
Next, more and more things were auctioned here, most of which were precious antiquities used by some elven nobles, or some low-level magical items.
These things basically have one characteristic, that is, they are related to ancient elves. It is said that most of them were excavated from the ruins of ancient elves.
During this auction process, Adil also made several attempts to buy some interesting gadgets for him, most of which were magical items unearthed from the ruins of ancient elves.
Most of these magical items have been repaired. After all, even items made by wizards will be damaged after tens of thousands of years, and it is impossible to maintain their original appearance.
Most of the items that can be auctioned are relatively intact. After some simple repairs by wizards and then put up for auction, most of them are relatively weak.
The reason why Adil bought these things was not because he wanted to use them, but he just wanted to study the magical items made by the ancient elves and see if he could learn some of the alchemy skills of the ancient elves.
Ahead, the auction continues.
Under the gaze of everyone, the old man in red robe who was in charge of hosting stood in the center of the stage. Beside him, several burly and seemingly strong men worked together to lift a huge blue ice coffin.
Come up.
After carrying it up, they opened the lid of the ice coffin to reveal its contents.
A light cold wind blew out, bringing with it dust and dust that had been trapped for a long time.
At this moment, the expressions of several wizards present moved, as if they felt something, and their eyes turned towards the ice coffin.
On the ice coffin, a beautiful girl wearing a light blue dress was lying quietly inside, her eyes closed, as beautiful as the Sleeping Beauty in the fairy tale.
Different from ordinary girls, this girl has long light silver hair, and her ears are much smaller than those of normal people. There is also a faint mana fluctuation escaping from the girl's body, with a deep feeling.
chill.
"This is!!"
At this moment, the expressions of many wizards present changed and they looked blankly at the elf girl in the ice coffin in front of them.
"This was recently excavated from an ancient ruins. According to the age, it was during the bloody disaster period."
In front, feeling the gazes of the people around him, the old man in charge nodded with satisfaction and began to explain to the people below: "According to the information obtained at that time, this dead elf girl should belong to the elf from the ancient times.
She is from the royal family, maybe even a princess, so she can be protected so well after death."
He pointed to the ice coffin in front of him: "Look, everyone, this ice coffin is also a unique demonized item. It was made by ancient elf wizards specifically to protect corpses. As long as the corpse is put in, it will be destroyed within one day."
It will be crystallized, so that the body will always remain the same as when it died and will never rot."
Looking at the people below, he explained loudly and enthusiastically, and then told the price of the auction item: "Together with the corpse and the ice coffin, the starting price is one hundred magic stones!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was silence at first. After a while, a voice sounded: "Two hundred magic stones!"
"Five hundred magic stones!"
"Eight hundred!"
Voices kept ringing in the same place, and within a short period of time, the price of this ice coffin was shouted to one thousand magic stones, and the price was still rising slowly.
In a room on the side, when he saw the ice coffin in the distance, Adil stood up immediately and looked at the ice coffin in the distance with burning eyes.
To be precise, he was not actually looking at the ice coffin, but at the lifelike corpse inside the ice coffin.
"It seems that there are still a lot of good things in this auction." From the side, Fred's voice sounded again.
He looked at Adier who stood up with some surprise, and then said with a smile: "We are lucky. This ice coffin made by ancient elves can not only preserve the body intact, but the material of the ice coffin itself is also a kind of
This precious material is about to become extinct. In recent years, we have seen less and less of it.”
Unlike Adil, his interest is obviously not in the body in the ice coffin, but in the ice coffin.
The same was true for the other wizards present. Except for a few people with quirks, the rest of the wizards didn't even look at the corpse.
Once a corpse sealed in an ice coffin is taken out, it will lose its crystallized state after a period of time and turn into a rotten corpse.
No matter how beautiful the girl is, if her body rots, it will be just a puddle of rotten flesh and will not attract the slightest attention from these wizards.
Unless the corpse is a pure-blooded ancient elf king, then perhaps there is still a way to obtain the powerful bloodline of the ancient moon elf from the corpse.
But if this body is really that of a pure-blood elf king, then it is definitely impossible to bring it here for auction.
Although the corpse of an ordinary elven royal family also has strong research value, it is far less precious than this ice coffin to the wizards present.
"Too much!"
As the surrounding atmosphere became increasingly heated, a voice sounded from a corner.
Solanna looked at the elf girl lying quietly in the ice coffin in the distance, with some anger in her eyes: "It's okay to disturb the deceased's sleep, but now they have to take out the deceased's body for auction, which is simply blasphemy!"
She looked at the people around her making quotes one by one, feeling extremely angry in her heart.
Because she has the blood of the ancient moon elves in her body, although she does not have the qualifications of a wizard, she has always been very yearning for the beauty of the ancient elves. Therefore, she has always been disgusted by the desecration of the corpses of elves.
What's more, the body being put up for auction at this time is not only a beautiful elf girl, but also has moon elf blood in her body, and it is even more likely that she is also a princess.
The similar identity and bloodline made her feel close to the corpse in front of her, and she couldn't help but feel very repelled by the current act of putting the corpse up for auction.
Unfortunately, even though she is a princess of the Goro royal family, she is not born with wizard qualifications, so she does not receive much attention. The magic stones that can be mobilized at this time are also limited, which is not enough to compete with the wizards around her. She can only look around.
The wizard keeps quoting.
In front of me, under the bidding of many wizards, the price of this ice coffin was raised to 2,500 magic stones, and the bidding sounds gradually fell down and stopped ringing.
The wizards present basically knew the value of the ice coffin in front of them. Even if the corpse of the elven royal family was included in it, it would only cost this price. No matter how high it was, it would not be worth it.
"It seems that this is the price." In the corner, a wizard whispered as he looked at the ice coffin in front of him.
"Three thousand magic stones."
At this time, a voice sounded again. Although the voice was calm, it was very firm, making people feel his determination.
Everyone around looked in the direction where the sound came from, only to find that the sound was coming from a small room.
"It's the wizard."
Looking at the direction from which the sound came, Solana's eyes lit up: "I remember that he came with Lord Fred."
"Three thousand magic stones! Is there anyone who offers a higher price?"
Ahead, the host's excited voice sounded again.
The old man in red robe who was responsible for the support had an excited face. He looked at the direction from which the voice came. Although he was a little surprised, he still shouted hard, expecting someone to continue bidding.
Only this time, there was no sound from below.
An old apprentice in white robe who had previously bid 2,500 magic stones looked at the host on the stage and shrugged helplessly.
"Okay! Congratulations to this gentleman for getting this ice coffin!"
Looking at the reaction below, the old man in red robe announced loudly.
"The price of three thousand magic stones is a bit expensive."
In the side room, looking at the ice coffin being carried down in front of him, Fred was eating a white fruit, looking at Adil and smiling: "This ice coffin plus this body, two thousand five hundred
The magic stones are almost at the limit, and three thousand magic stones are a bit wasted."
"It doesn't matter."
Adil smiled and shook his head, looking in a good mood: "I have been doing some experiments recently, and I need some corpses of the elven royal family with pure blood."
"Do you want to try to extract the blood of the ancient moon elves from the corpses of the elven royal family?"
Looking at Adier, Fred guessed.
After listening to his words, Adil did not deny it and nodded directly.
"It's not bad, but it's too difficult."
Fred nodded: "The purification of ancient bloodline has always been a big difficulty for today's wizards. I still remember that I did many such experiments when I was young."
"What was the final result?" Adil looked at him and asked.
"There is no doubt that I failed."
Fred spread his hands: "If the bloodline of ancient creatures could be so easily purified, it would be impossible for today's wizards to be as weak as they are now."
Hearing this, Adil nodded slightly.
Even in ancient times, it was extremely difficult to purify a high-level ancestral bloodline from the faded bloodline.
If Adil had not possessed a chip and could directly observe the blood chain in his blood with the help of the chip, then it would not have been possible to do this.
"But even though I failed, I also learned a lot from the crazy experiments during that time."
Looking at the expression on Adil's face, Fred smiled and said: "There are many wizards who do this kind of experiment. If you want to do this kind of experiment, there is actually no need to collect materials at the auction.
"
"In some places, there are places that specialize in excavating the corpses of ancient elves from ruins for sale. If you want to collect experimental materials, you can go there."
"kindness?"
Listening to Fred's words, Adil was stunned: "Is there such a place?"
"certainly."
Fred smiled and said: "In fact, our market here has such a place, but the scale is relatively small."
"But you have to be mentally prepared. Normally, such elven corpses with good bloodlines are not only scarce in number, but also very expensive."
He looked at Adil and explained: "After all, from ancient times to the present, it is not easy just to preserve the corpses."
"I can understand." Adier nodded, expressing his understanding.
Ahead, as time passes, auction items appear one by one and are auctioned one by one.
However, after that ice coffin, Adier had no interest in other auction items. Except for occasionally auctioning a few items, he didn't care about the rest.
After a while, as time passed, the auction gradually came to an end.
Adil and Fred walked out of the room together, followed a certain path, and soon came to a hall.
There, there were already several people waiting there.
"Hello, two adults!"
Seeing Adil and Fred, an old man in white robes walked forward with a smile and looked directly at Adil: "My lord, you have auctioned a total of seven items. After our calculations,
A total of seven thousand three hundred magic stones."
"Seven thousand three hundred magic stones."
Hearing this number, Adier nodded slightly, not surprised.
In the previous auction, in addition to the ice coffin, he also bought several other items, and the combined prices were not low.
He took out a small bag from his arms and after counting out seventy-three high-level magic stones, he asked seemingly casually: "Can you exchange high-level magic stones for magic crystals here?"
"this···"
As if he didn't expect Adil to ask this question, the old man in white robe was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course there is no problem with that."
"It's just that if you use ordinary magic stones to exchange for magic crystals in our chamber of commerce, our chamber of commerce will still need to charge a 1% handling fee."
"Cough..." A cough suddenly sounded.
After listening to the words of the white-robed old man in front of him, Fred looked at him with an unkind expression and a pair of somewhat cloudy eyes. A unique mental wave escaped and was suppressed instantly.
Suddenly, the face of the old man in white robe in front of him turned pale. Before he could realize what was going on, Fred's voice rang out again: "This is Lord Adier, who is also the guardian wizard of our Kingdom of Gaoluo."
"The guardian wizard of the Goro Kingdom..."
After listening to Fred's reminder, the old man's hands in front of him shook subconsciously, and then he immediately reacted. Looking at Adier in front of him, the expression on his face suddenly became respectful and passionate: "Of course, for you, Your Excellency.
For such a distinguished gentleman, this 1% handling fee can be completely waived!"
PS: I would like to recommend a book from a friend, "The Rebirth of the Chinese Food Saint". Here is the introduction:
Li Yu, the youngest chef king in China, was unexpectedly reborn in a parallel world where the ban on meat had just been lifted.
What? All recipes around the world have been passed down? The most famous oriental cuisine is kimchi?
Of the 108 dishes of the Manchu-Han banquet, only about 20 have survived?
There are not even one out of the eight major cuisines, but Chinese cuisine actually relies on the ‘drawing silk’ series to support itself?
····
I haven’t read the book, so I recommend it to you (the lazy cancer author begs all readers not to hit me)
