The bidding for the ancient scroll that was being auctioned was rising steadily, and it soon reached a fever pitch.
According to the Blood Moon Society, this scroll was once owned by two legendary wizards. Although the secrets inside have not been cracked, there is no doubt about its magic.
Otherwise, the auction will not be arranged in the key sequence.
"Thirty thousand gold coins!"
When the bidding reached 30,000, the number of bidders suddenly decreased.
Only the last two are still competing with each other.
"Thirty-two thousand gold coins!"
"Thirty-five thousand!"
"forty thousand!"
There was a small sensation in the Luna Palace, because the price greatly exceeded the value of the Elder Scroll.
In fact, many magical items are unearthed from ancient ruins every year, but rarely are they auctioned for such high prices.
One of the competitors chickened out.
This ancient scroll was finally sold for a sky-high price of 40,000 gold coins.
Gao Jing watched the whole process, let alone the bidding competition, he didn't even move a finger.
After the bidding ended, the scroll was put back into the secret gold box and handed over to the buyer sitting in the VIP seat.
This is the rule of the Blood Moon Auction. After the auction, you pay and receive the goods on the spot. There is no sloppiness at all.
In this way, if anyone dares to play any tricks, Xue Yue will directly teach him how to behave.
The masked buyer waved his hand and put the secret gold box into his void equipment, and paid 40,000 gold coins at the same time.
The spendthrift buyer did not realize that a small ox hair thorn was quietly nailed to his robe.
Due to the large number of lots, the Blood Moon Auction didn't end until late at night.
The bidders left one after another, and Gao Jing followed the crowd out of the Luna Hall.
As soon as he stepped down the steps, a man in black suddenly jumped out from the side and rushed towards a wizard with lightning speed, stabbing the latter's vital part with the dagger in his hand.
But before the assassin could get close to the wizard, a big gray-white hand fell from the sky and struck him hard.
boom!
The assassin in black was knocked to the ground, all the bones in his body were broken, and blood was pouring out from under his body.
The hand of the wizard!
Wizard Hand is a low-level spell that a beginning wizard can master, but it can only be used to move very light items.
However, the same spell cast by different wizards has completely different powers.
Gao Jing felt awe-struck in his heart.
Gao Jing was only a few steps away from the killed assassin and could clearly see the power of the blow.
The wizard who took action must at least be at the level of a high-ranking wizard.
"Haha, there are these blind people every year."
"You are so poor. If you dare to rob at the entrance of the Moon Temple, you are looking for death!"
"poor guy."
The others were laughing and joking, looking as if they were not surprised, and saying mocking words.
They quickly boarded the carriage or animal cart parked outside and walked away separately.
Gao Jing hesitated.
Through the Nine Wings, he sensed that Quinn and the person who photographed the ancient scroll were walking in opposite directions.
But Gao Jing only hesitated for a few seconds and immediately started tracking the latter.
Compared to the Elder Scrolls that can cause such a big reaction to the copper anchor, the task of hunting down the dark wizard is inconsequential.
In any case, it is impossible for Quinn to leave the shelter of the ancient Yinxu City. Gao Jing has plenty of time and opportunity to deal with him.
The person who took the picture of the ancient scroll might just leave.
However, what Gao Jing didn't expect was that after boarding a luxury carriage, the rather mysterious bidder was escorted by four fully armed knights to a wizard's tower not far away.
Gao Jing, who was following him, watched the other party get out of the car and enter the wizard's tower, but did not get any closer.
Things are in trouble.
The Wizard Tower is the place where the great wizard practices and lives. It is also a very large wizard weapon.
This "witch weapon" has many functions, has strong attack power and defense, and is often the mana node that forms the city's defense array.
Moreover, there are often many wizards practicing in the wizard tower. A high-level wizard usually has some powerful warrior followers who usually stay together in the wizard tower.
Therefore, it is extremely difficult to invade a wizard tower. Unless you have crushing power, you will need legion-sized combat power to break through the defense of a wizard tower.
Although Gao Jing has already entered the legend, compared with the real giant legend, his inherent weakness is obvious. Although he can be strengthened a lot with the help of the dragon elephant totem, he does not dare to challenge a wizard tower alone.
The most important thing is that the wizard tower here is not alone, there are several others.
The Wizard Tower and the Wizard Tower formed a network through the defensive circle. One move affected the whole body and supported each other. The power they could exert was even more terrifying.
Under such circumstances, Gao Jing could only suppress his strong curiosity and desire for the Elder Scrolls again.
Go back to find Quinn.
As a dark wizard who is on the run in fear of crime, Quinn is definitely not qualified to stay in the Wizard Tower. His hiding place in the ancient Yinxu City is in the villa area at the foot of the mountains to the north.
This area is inhabited by the upper echelons of the ancient Yinxu City. Villas of various sizes are built in a well-proportioned pattern along the mountains. You can see groups of soldiers patrolling back and forth among them.
The chaos in the ancient Yinxu City obviously had no impact here.
With the help of Jiuyi's perception of spiritual thorns, Gao Jing quickly locked onto the target's location.
It was an old-looking villa, surrounded by a large forest, which looked very secluded.
Gao Jing did not rush over directly, but spread out his mental network from a long distance away.
Sure enough, he sensed that a totem circle was set up around the villa, and the aura of psychic energy was quite strong.
This kind of small magic circle is usually used for warning and protection. Once a stranger breaks in, it will be triggered immediately to issue a warning or block it.
In order to avoid disturbing the situation, Gao Jing dispersed the blessing of the Dragon Elephant Totem on himself.
His body instantly returned to its original size, and at the same time activated the dragon scale armor for protection.
The lion fought the rabbit with all his strength. Gao Jing did not dare to underestimate the ability of an evil wizard, so he decided to launch a surprise attack.
Using the cover of night, Gao Jing jumped into the air and flew above the villa.
At this time, the advantage of reducing the size is revealed - the movement is concealed enough.
At the same time, Jiuyi, who had entered the villa, discovered Quinn's exact location - in the study on the second floor.
The dark wizard was talking to a pale middle-aged man with a hooked nose inside, saying that he had gained nothing from participating in the blood moon auction tonight and hoped that the other party could find a way to help him find the materials he needed.
Just as the middle-aged man nodded in agreement, Gao Jingchuan entered the study!
