Chapter 113: Soul-Eating Carving Knife, Gray Beads Moved
Huo Yuhao and others walked through a simple wooden door under the leadership of the welcoming lady, and the scene suddenly changed.
In sight, everything is golden, and a splendid corridor appears in front of everyone.
The welcoming lady led the way and said as she walked: "Dear guests, our starlight auction is held in Hall 12. Today is a special auction of soul guides. The levels of the soul tools in the auction range from level three to level six. I hope you can buy suitable items."
After saying that, the corridor in front reached the end, and the light suddenly dimmed. A simple and elegant auction house that can accommodate hundreds of people appears in front of you.
Then, the welcoming lady handed them several masks to hide their identities. Huo Yuhao and his party followed suit and put on the masks before entering the venue.
Then, I don’t know if it was specially arranged by the Sun and Moon Empire, but they were led to the first row of the entire auction house by the welcoming lady.
Very close to the auction table.
After completing the guidance, the welcoming lady bowed slightly, turned and left.
Perhaps because a few people arrived earlier, there were only a few guests in the auction house at this time, and it was still some time before the official start.
Not long after, when the entire auction hall began to fill up, Huo Yuhao's mental detection spread out quietly.
As expected, I found a few old acquaintances.
Wang Yan and everyone from the Shrek team also sat in the first row.
At this time, everyone in Shrek seemed to have lost their rejection of soul tools and came to participate in this exclusive auction of soul tools for the first time.
In fact, after watching the various dazzling tactics produced by the team's soul masters using their soul guides in the opening ceremony, the mentality of everyone in Shrek had already changed.
They have to admit that times have really changed, and this version, with soul masters and soul guides, is the real answer.
On the faces of everyone at Shrek, there was a sense of being behind the times and anxious to study harder, which made Huo Yuhao feel amused.
"The auction is about to begin, please take your seats, distinguished guests." At this moment, a beautiful female voice came from all directions, the entire auction hall fell silent, and a strong beam of light hit the auction table.
A female auctioneer wearing a purple dress walked onto the stage from the side of the auction hall.
"Good evening, distinguished guests, I am Qingya, the auctioneer of Starlight Auction House, and I will be hosting the auction today."
After finishing speaking, Qing Ya bowed to the audience gracefully, and the audience applauded in unison.
She walked behind the auction case, smiled slightly and said: "Dear distinguished guests, although our auction items today are mainly soul guides, we have also prepared a mysterious auction item for all distinguished guests. Don’t miss it! Next, please take a look at our first auction item.”
With Qingya’s introduction, each soul tool was brought to the stage for auction.
There are many remote and melee soul guides with very practical functions.
Meng Hongchen, who was sitting next to Huo Yuhao, was very interested at first, but later became drowsy.
“They are all old antiques. Their appearance is so ugly, their functions are so single, their power is so weak, and they consume a lot of soul power. Our Sun and Moon Empire eliminated these soul tools decades ago. That’s all. Is your son worthy of being auctioned off as a treasure?"
Meng Hongchen curled his lips and commented sharply.
Xiao Hongchen and Mr. Ma also nodded, agreeing with Meng Hongchen’s point of view.
You know, the Hongchen brother and sister are the grandsons and granddaughters of Hongchen Hall Master. They have grown up in Mingde Hall since they were young. They have a very high vision for soul guides.
Mr. Ma is a teacher at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, let alone one.
In their eyes, these soul tools auctioned by the Star Luo Empire were simply a pile.
Huo Yuhao understood their disdain very well.
In recent years, although the Douluo Three Kingdoms have made conscious efforts to catch up with the level of soul guidance devices of the Sun and Moon Empire, the gap between the two is still like an abyss, which cannot be measured rationally.
This is not to say that the soul mentors of the Douluo Three Kingdoms are not good. The main reason for this situation is still because of the gap in resources.
Compared to the Douluo Three Kingdoms, the Sun Moon Empire has scarce soul beast resources, but their metal resources are countless.
Many of the rare metal resources required for soul guidance devices come from the Sun and Moon Empire, so the development of soul guidance devices in the Sun and Moon Empire is naturally smooth sailing.
When the resources of both sides are insufficient to support their needs, war is naturally inevitable.
This is also the point of conflict between the Sun and Moon Empire and the Douluo Three Kingdoms. In recent years, it has become so intense that it cannot be adjusted. There is only one reason to start a war.
Huo Yuhao was not interested in the ordinary soul tools at the auction, but he still stared at the auction items on the stage without blinking.
If I remember correctly, something very important will appear here today.
As long as that thing is taken down, it will definitely benefit his future development. Even Yi Lao, who has been completely asleep, may wake up again.
This is the purpose of Huo Yuhao coming to this auction.
Soon, two hours passed. At this time, Qingya, who was standing on the stage, suddenly turned red, lowered her voice a little, and said rather mysteriously: "Dear guests, this time The auction is coming to an end. In order to thank everyone for coming, we have prepared a mysterious auction for you, which is also our last auction tonight. Please take a look! ”
A cart came out of the booth! The side was slowly pushed up, and it was covered with a layer of red cloth.
Qingya lifted the red cloth, and everyone's eyes were attracted to it.
But under the red cloth, there was just an ordinary carving knife.
The appearance of the carving knife is somewhat primitive, dark, and exudes a faint sharp atmosphere.
For a moment, all the bidders in the field were a little dissatisfied, but Huo Yuhao was shocked!
Coming! Huo Yuhao knew that this was what he was waiting for.
Almost the moment Qing Ya lifted the red cloth, the soul power had long since dried up. The gray ball sleeping in Huo Yuhao’s spiritual sea seemed to have moved!
Amid the dissatisfaction, Qing Ya's voice continued to sound: "Everyone, don't get me wrong, this is not an ordinary carving knife. The carving knife in front of you is also very famous in the world of soul engineers. I believe everyone has heard of the list carving knife!”
The expressions of everyone in the audience suddenly changed. Many people sitting here knew the value of the list carving knife.
Even Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen suddenly looked surprised and said: "The list of engraving knives, it is really strange that the Star Luo Empire has such a thing." The atmosphere in the audience suddenly became heated. Standing up, a dazzling smile appeared on Qingya's face. She continued: "This carving knife is the ninety-ninth one on the list of carving knives. I think everyone knows its value. ! ”
“Huh, ninety-nine, is this how the Star Luo Empire fools people? I guess this carving knife must be a soul-eating carving knife, right? The list carving knife is good, but if you have money to buy it, you have to have a life to use it. Could it be that your Starlight Auction House treats everyone as a fool?"
At this moment, Mr. Ma was sitting aside. spoke suddenly.
"The soul-eating carving knife? Could it be the murderous blade that defeated the master?"
"No way, why did Starlight Auction House take this thing out for auction? Are you trying to trick people?"
Suddenly, everyone in the auction house once again had a look of surprise and uncertainty.
Seeing that the real name of the carving knife was revealed, Qing Ya suddenly said with some embarrassment: "Haha, it seems that the distinguished guests are indeed well-informed. In fact, I haven't finished speaking just now."
Then she sighed softly and said: "If this was a normal carving knife, it would not appear here anyway. As everyone knows, this is indeed a defective carving knife. Knife, but its material is definitely among the best in the world of soul masters, and is even more precious than many rare materials."
"And this carving knife is not just that, use this one. The soul guide made by the Graver will have at least two special effects, which are terrifying. Another point is that even if you buy it back and don't use it, it is still very good as a collection."
" Because, if one day in the future, when our understanding of the carving knife and the curse is further deepened, and we find a way to remove the curse of the soul-eating carving knife, then the value of this carving knife will be very different, at least it can be ranked among the carving knifes. Top 30 on the knife list!”
“It can be said that this is a good opportunity for everyone. Now, the last auction item in this auction, the Soul-Eating Carving Knife, has a starting price of 100,000 gold soul coins. The bid increase must not be less than five thousand gold soul coins, and the bidding begins!”
Qingya worked hard to rectify the name of this soul-eating carving knife and mobilize the interest of all bidders in this object. For the sake of her own performance, She also worked hard.
Unfortunately, no one responded to her, and no one was even willing to offer a minimum price.
"Haha, you think others are being taken advantage of. If you buy this thing, your life will be at stake, right?"
Meng Hongchen laughed and whispered to Huo Yuhao beside him.
The smile on Qingya's face gradually became stiff. It must have been rejected again. This thing had been sitting in the warehouse for who knows how long, and it had been rejected many times during this period.
This time, the boss went crazy and put this thing up for auction again, but it was her turn to be responsible.
Once this thing fails to sell in her hands, her performance this month will be greatly affected.
Just as she was getting desperate, a young voice suddenly sounded from the audience.
"One hundred thousand gold soul coins."
A sign was also raised suddenly, right at the front of the entire auction house.
Qingya was stunned for a moment. After being surprised, her heart was instantly filled with a sense of surprise.
I have solved the most difficult lot at the Starlight Auction House, so this year’s performance is all there.
"One hundred thousand gold soul coins, one time. Is there any distinguished guest who will bid again?" Qingya hurriedly responded.
The bidder was none other than Huo Yuhao.
Hearing Huo Yuhao's bid, Meng Hongchen, who was sitting next to him and complaining to Huo Yuhao about the confusing operation of the Starlight Auction House, was immediately shocked.
Xiao Hongchen and Mr. Ma also looked at him in shock.
Meng Hongchen hurriedly whispered: "Fang Yuan, you can't have this carving knife. This thing is obviously made by the Star Luo Empire to deceive people. They bet that a confident soul master like you thinks he can conquer this thing. I think they just invited us here because they were investigating us!”
“This thing comes from our Sun and Moon Empire, so we know its origin very well. This thing was originally a sun and moon thing three thousand years ago! It was used by a ninth-level soul master. He was also an evil soul master. It is said that this man died tragically at that time. This sword has been circulated in the mainland for three thousand years. I know that you are very confident in your talent as a soul guide. "
“But the key point is that over the past three thousand years, countless geniuses who have confidence in their soul guidance talents have lost their lives to this soul-eating carving knife. If you really want to carve Knife, tell me, I’ll give you Xiao Hongchen’s knife. His carving knife ranks over fifty on the ranking list, and it’s much better than this one.”
Meng Hongchen quickly took it. The history and dangers of the Soul-Eating Carving Knife were explained to Huo Yuhao before he was dissuaded.
Not to mention, Meng Hongchen actually analyzed it and found that this soul-eating carving knife was indeed taken out and placed here intentionally by Xu Jiawei.
The reason is to be photographed by a soul master like Huo Yuhao who thinks highly of himself.
What should I do if I didn’t take the photo? Xu Jiawei just made a random move. It would be best if he took the picture. If he didn't, there would be no loss.
"Why did you give my carving knife to Fang Yuan? Meng, your own one is no worse than mine, why don't you give him your own." Xiao Hongchen muttered with sad eyes.
How long has it been since my cabbage’s elbow turned outward?
"Shut up, Fang Yuan can help me relieve the cold poison, can you!" Meng Hongchen glared at Xiao Hongchen, under the mask, there was a red face.
Huo Yuhao smiled and said in the same low voice: "Don't worry, I'm not the kind of blindly confident soul master. I definitely won't buy it if I'm not completely sure. I still have to have this bit of trust, and now I've already made a bid, and I don't think I can buy it anymore. I'll just treat it as a collectible and go back to play with it. If I can't control it, my life will not be in danger. At worst, I can just take the laughing carving knife and use it. No, I won’t be polite to him.”
Xiao Hongchen:? ?
Good guys, can you ask me for my opinion first? I don’t agree with it, so you two just talk to yourselves.
Hearing this, Meng Hongchen had no choice but to give Huo Yuhao an "Okay" look and stopped talking.
“One hundred thousand gold soul coins twice, is there really no VIP bidding?”
Qingya shouted again, but at this time she was helpless to find that there seemed to be no other injustice. There is a rush to bid.
"One hundred thousand gold soul coins three times. Congratulations to this distinguished guest for getting the Soul-Eating Carving Knife!"
Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief and felt happy after receiving the Soul-Eating Knife.
"This auction has ended. Thank you for your presence. Welcome to visit us next time!"
Back at the Star Emperor Hotel, Huo Yuhao was about to enter his room.
Brother Hongchen and Mr. Ma stood in front of him.
"Fang Yuan, are you sure you have a way to avoid the backlash of this soul-eating carving knife? It's not that we don't believe you, it's just that this thing is very evil. How important you are to the college now, you don't care. You know, if Xuan Ziwen were here, he wouldn't allow you to joke about your own safety."
Mr. Ma said seriously.
Huo Yuhao thought for a while, and then said: "Otherwise, Mr. Ma, I will use this soul-eating carving knife in my room next, and you will guard the door. If I don't If you get backlash, how about you stop worrying?”
