Volume 2: Chapter 38: Exit Fee

Selina's biggest task this time has been completed, and now she can participate in the auction without any worries. After all, solving a task is like moving a huge boulder from the depths of her heart. It relaxes her body and mind!

The price of "Moya's Cane" is still being increased, but Selina has never increased the price. She has no interest in this cane in the first place, it's just that a very bored old man at "home" likes to collect these weird and weird things.

Objects, and when they have nothing to do, they always tell the people around them these antique stories that make them fall asleep!

If the price is right, Selina doesn't mind buying this cane for an old man who is talking to himself in an idle way, which she is not interested in at all, but just now the price of this cane has soared over four hundred and fifty.

One hundred thousand pounds was already beyond her psychological expectations.

Not only was the price beyond Selina's estimate, but the most important thing was that she saw the guardian of the Valley of the Kings of Guerro, who seemed to be here for the "Moya Cane".

The Valley of the Kings is the tomb of the pharaohs and nobles of ancient Eero. The vigilantes are the attendants who are responsible for guarding the tombs. They have been trained since childhood and are loyal to the pharaohs.

The ten wakemen ignored anyone present and walked straight towards the auction table. When they were approaching the first row, they were stopped by the guards of the black market.

White cloaks covered the whole body of the wakers. Except for the leader, all the other wakers had black and brown patterns of vultures embroidered on their white cloaks, and half-face masks obscured their faces.

Stopping in their tracks, the leader, who had a pure black vulture embroidered on his white cloak and a vulture with red pupils, and a black and white striped mask, stared at the black market guards who stopped them through the mask with cold and ruthless eyes.

The vigils who accompany the dead all year round have a sense of death themselves, and their leaders have a stronger aura. Being stared at closely by such people, the guards of the black market feel uncomfortable all over, and the shudder refers to them now.

"Sir, please... step back... and don't interfere with the auction." The guards at the auction stage stuttered a bit, but they still stood in front of the waker and refused to step back.

Everyone present saw this sudden scene, but no one stood up to speak. They all watched with cold eyes, wanting to see how the black market handled this matter.

The leader of the wake did not continue to move forward, but took out a black card from his body and handed it to the guard in front of him.

He didn't say anything, just looked at the other person, waiting for the other person's reaction.

The guard held the black card and saw the letter "X" written on the front. Turning over the back, he could see the black market's unique marking pattern, the Queen of the Underworld, Hella.

When the black market was first established, it received help from many established forces. The other parties just felt that the establishment of the black market had great development potential and gave them some insignificant help.

But it was these small help that made the black market go through the most difficult period in the early days of its establishment. Later, in order to repay these forces, the black market released the "Ming Card".

When a person or force holding a "Dark Card" comes to the black market, he or she will unconditionally agree to a request to the best of his or her ability. However, this time, after the "Dark Card" is used, it will be taken back by the black market.

The black market has recovered several "underworld cards" over the years, but more holders will keep them until they can maximize their benefits.

Of course, for the current Valley of the Kings, taking back the "Moya Cane" is a manifestation of maximizing interests.

The guards at the auction changed their expressions the moment they saw the "Netherworld Card". When they joined the black market auction, they were warned to remember one card, and that card was the "Netherworld Card".

". No matter who he is, no matter how he comes with a card, he must be treated with courtesy, even if he is just a beggar.

"Thump thump thump." A sound of high heels stepping on the floor came from far to near in the silent hall.

A black jazz hat, a black veil, a black patterned long skirt, and black high heels are all worn on a woman with a good figure.

The black veil covered the woman's face, but it was this sense of mystery that made her look like a night elf slowly coming towards people.

Slowly arriving in front of the waker, a charming voice rang out, "Sir, do you have any requests?"

"We will do our best to satisfy you."

The leader of the wake looked at the woman in front of him with indifferent eyes. To him, the woman in front of him was just a red and pink skeleton, far less important than his own mission.

He undergoes mental tempering every day and lives a physically ascetic-like tempering. As a spiritual guardian, he has already developed a will like that of the dead. He can already calm down when facing temptations in the general sense.

"'Maya's Stick'."

Four simple words stated the purpose of their visit without any unnecessary nonsense.

"Your Excellency, wait a moment!"

The woman waved to the guards around her to take down the 'Moya Cane' from the auction table.

"I'm really sorry everyone, this auction item has been cancelled."

"The next lot will be auctioned in five minutes. Please wait patiently!" the woman turned to face the guests and said softly.

The soft words came out without shouting, but they surprisingly appeared in the ears of every guest present, as if they were whispering in your ears.

The expressions of most of the guests present behind their masks changed instantly. Even though the masks blocked their faces, their eyes, known as the "windows to the soul," betrayed them.

A word came to their mind, "the one given by God".

The leader of the wake group also had his eyes flashing, but his face remained expressionless.

At this moment, the leader of the wake changed his first intuitive view of the woman in front of him. She was not a vase, but a copper vase hidden in the shadows.

It was certain that the woman in front of her was a "god-given person", and her abilities were mostly related to sound. This was the thought that flashed through the hearts of the leader of the wake and a very few guests present.

There is no unnecessary explanation. The black market auction house does not need to explain to anyone. Anyone who can sit here has more or less heard of the "Dark Card". Some of the forces present even have "Dark Card" themselves.

They understand what this card means.

The guard took out the 'Moya Cane' and handed it to the woman's hand. The woman's hand with black gauze gloves held the cane and whispered to the waker: "Your Excellency, please come this way!"

The leader of the pallbearer nodded indifferently, followed closely behind the woman in black and headed towards the auction hall.

Walking out of the hall, the group of watchmen behind them did not say a word from beginning to end. Silence, indifference, and indifference became synonymous with them.

Selina is just a spectator, treating herself as a silent audience. Any emergencies that occur at the auction site will be conveyed verbatim to her "home".

Not only Selina, I believe that the representatives of various forces present will also report exactly what happened at the auction tonight. Regardless of whether the news is valuable or not, they will still report it.

The guardians of the Valley of the Kings are just passers-by to the auction, they come and go in a hurry, that's what they are talking about.

The auction will not be affected by the arrival of the waker and the auction will continue.

The people present were basically not affected in any way. They were not ordinary people, or they would not have been selected by their respective forces to participate in the black market auction.

Ordinary people come to the black market and participate in auctions just to hunt for novelties.

They, representatives of major forces, come to the auction not just for rare treasures, but also to show their faces, show off their wealth and strength, and strengthen their sense of existence.

It is precisely because of this that those sent to participate in the black market auction will be the best in their respective forces.

There are a dazzling array of rare treasures. This is the auction on this floor. If any piece of auction item is lost, it is enough to trigger a fight between multiple forces. Just like the 'Moya Cane' before, no matter who takes the photo, as long as they leave

Black market, this news will spread, and these "single-minded" gangs in the Valley of the Kings will hunt you to the ends of the earth.

The auction gradually came to an end in the fierce competition, and Selina left early without waiting for the end. According to her, there was no longer any attraction here, and it was not worth wasting time here.

The black market auction is different from the orthodox auction in that you can leave at any time. As long as you pay the corresponding "exit fee" to the black market, you can leave early.

"Exit fee" not only refers to leaving the auction hall, it includes two contents: you can spend a small amount of money to leave early, but you cannot leave the black market. You can only wait for the black market to be lifted and leave. This will make it easier to deal with other matters.

matter without wasting time. After all, the time to lift the ban and leave is usually scheduled ten minutes after the auction ends.

Another point is that the normal "exit fee" not only allows you to leave the auction house early, but also allows you to leave the black market. If you can add a little "tip", it can help you arrange a safe way out.

Selina fell into the latter category, but she didn't leave a tip, not only because there were escorts from outside, but mainly because she was a talented artist and was bold, and she was not compatible with "weak women".

After leaving the auction house, Selina didn't waste any time, contacted her servant, and together they went to the rare animal area to find Bob, pick up the goods, and pay the balance.

Selina didn't know that the man who had ridden in the same carriage with her was in the auction house downstairs. She also didn't expect that just as she left the auction house, Chu Long also walked out of the auction house, and there was a gap between them.

Just a few minutes away.

The golden-headed monkey was finally delivered as promised, Bob's signboard was saved by a narrow margin, and Selina paid the remaining balance in one lump sum according to the previous agreement. Everyone went back to their homes, and the matter ended successfully.

Selina and her servants left the black market without any reason after everything was done. In order to ensure that no accidents occurred, they had no choice but to leave the black market first.
