Chapter 346
At this time, the auctioneer on the stage also quickly introduced it.
"The Gaia's Wire is said to be steel that grows naturally under the earth. I will not describe its use in detail."
"Then, the starting price of this item is 5 million Geo, and each bid starts at 30,000."
At this time, August noticed the whispered exchange between Victor and Gwen.
He noticed that Victor's eyes were looking at the Gaia's Wire.
Then, August raised the sign in his hand.
At this moment, the entire parliament hall was silent.
They all knew that King August was sitting in the overhead box on the second floor.
And they also heard that the king was accompanying two distinguished guests from the Karencia Empire.
Among them, there seemed to be a madman named... Victor Clevenna, who liked to bombard.
So at this time, no noble dared to raise the sign in his hand to bid.
It was not to give the king face, but no one wanted to see a deep pit blown up in their home the next day.
In the end, this Gaia's Wire was easily bought by August without any competition.
The auctioneer was a little surprised, but her professionalism made her not care too much and quickly launched the next item.
"Mahazak's tail spike."
"This is taken from the tail spike of the ghost-like Mahazak living among the mountains. It is the material for the staff that mages dream of."
"The starting price is 3 million geos, and the price will increase by 200,000 each time!"
No one was interested in this item.
After all, most of the people present were warriors, and this thing was obviously prepared for mages. What do they want it for?
So, as soon as the voice fell, August raised the sign in his hand again.
Victor turned his head and his eyes fell on August.
August also turned around and smiled at Victor:
"Since Sir Victor is interested in 'Gaia Steel', I think 'this Mahazak's Tail Thorn' will be equally useful to you."
"If you don't need it, I can also give it to Her Highness Aurelian."
"I think, as a mage, she should also have a staff of her own."
Victor didn't say anything, but just looked at Aurelian silently.
As if he understood something, he snorted and finally said no more
After that, the remaining auction items failed to attract his attention.
Those antiques full of collection value seemed too ordinary to him.
But those collectors and nobles with deep intentions were very enthusiastic about these antiques, and they calmly and patiently waited for the right time to bid.
Victor even found antiques exported and sold from Duke Levi's house among the treasures.
It is said that Duke Levi's family is very rich.
His family's antique business has been hyped abroad.
But Victor didn't believe that no one in the empire smuggled his magic potion, but his magic potion had never been put on the market.
Maybe it was because there were few mages in the kingdom.
Maybe the Kasidra Chamber of Commerce didn't dare to auction his goods openly, after all, they didn't want to be remembered by a powerful mage.
Victor thought about it.
Maybe in the kingdom, selling those recovery potions would be more popular.
Soon, the goods were auctioned off one by one.
After all the rare materials and old bones were looked over, the auction entered the final stage.
The beautiful auctioneer raised the hammer gracefully and tapped it lightly on the table.
The heavy vibration echoed in the silent hall.
"Your enthusiasm makes us, the Kasidra Chamber of Commerce, deeply honored."
"Then next, I believe that everyone will be very interested in this last item."
She leaned forward slightly, as if saluting an admirable opponent.
"This is what our Kashidra Chamber of Commerce paid a huge price for, and was willing to exchange the lives of several brave warriors for it."
With her gesture, the light of red and orange flames illuminated the curtains, and a series of iron cages were pushed up.
Those iron cages were filled with various sub-humans.
Fox ears, musk deer horns, antelope tails, each pair belonged to an extremely rare sub-human.
They were male and female, curled up in the corner, with injuries on their bodies.
The fear in their eyes was more obvious under the light of the fire that illuminated them.
The moment these sub-humans appeared, Vanilla behind Aurelian's hair exploded all over her body and her pupils contracted.
Even Aurelian was stunned.
She had never heard that at the end of this auction, the things being sold were sub-humans!
And among this pile of rare sub-humans, there was a special one.The huge iron cage was placed in the middle.
"Of course, our most precious treasure today, the Orcs!"
The auctioneer shouted loudly and took the initiative to lift the black curtain on the iron cage.
At this moment, the faces of the clan lords were full of enthusiasm and applause.
In the iron cage were two sturdy tiger men.
Aurelian was particularly surprised.
Orcs, this was the first time she had seen such a race.
They refer to a very special branch of the subhumans.
Perhaps because their bodies have not yet been civilized, except for the ability to stand and walk, their body structure is almost the same as that of humans.
They retain all the animal characteristics.
For example, the two tiger men on the field.
Their hair has not faded, and their tiger-like heads are on top of their bodies, just like two tigers standing up.
"When I saw the subhuman guards you brought with you, I knew you might be interested in these subhuman slaves."
August smiled as he looked at the touched Aurelian:
"It just so happens that the Chamber of Commerce has a lot of subhuman slaves this time. What do you think?"
At this time, the auctioneer pressed down lightly, signaling the nobles to be quiet.
Then, she began to announce the rules of the auction:
"Other rare subhumans, each starting price is one million."
"And these two male and female orcs, the starting price is 10 million! Each bid must not be less than one million!"
As her words fell, the auction hall roared.
The nobles rushed to raise their cards with enthusiasm, fearing that the pair of orcs would fall into the hands of others.
The nobles who could afford to auction subhumans all had wealthy families and profound background.
Perhaps these subhumans were sometimes unruly, but these noble lords would not care about this at all.
For them, these subhuman slaves are a powerful tool for them to show their power and restrain the people.
But before they finished speaking, a calm voice came from the first-class box:
"One hundred million, I'll take it all."
The voice was not loud, but it just happened to spread throughout the auction.
Upon hearing the voice, a group of noble lords frowned and their faces changed slightly.
They found that someone had ruined their interest, and they couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
"Who is it? You want to take all these precious subhumans away with only one hundred million?"
"Brother, you are a bit too much. We are competing fairly, how can you do this..."
Suddenly, their voices couldn't help but become much smaller.
Because these people looked over in the direction of the sound.
In that box, a man in a black windbreaker stood up at some point.
His face was calm and indifferent, as if he didn't care about anything.
At that moment, all the noble lords fell silent.
This man, it seems, is familiar?
Buzz——! ! !
Almost instantly, the terrifying magic circle ring burst out behind Victor.
With a mysterious clanging sound, the surrounding magic suddenly rioted.
The elements in the air began to become chaotic, and the magic became sharp.
Under the dual pressure of the majestic magic and elements, the surrounding space began to become somewhat stagnant, bending and almost broken.
"What I mean is that 100 million geos are not for buying two and a half subhumans."
Victor's voice was low and powerful.
"It's for buying all the subhumans."
His eyes were cold, sweeping across the auction house, making all the nobles present feel an invisible oppression.
It was like the cold wind in late winter, biting and cold.
It was like thousands of invisible blades hanging over the heads of those nobles, very creepy.
"Today, if I can't take them away."
"Then I will take you away."
