Chapter 20 During the Auction (Part 1)
This is a room of about two hundred square meters, which is extremely luxuriously decorated and filled with precious wood, jade, and various other products that you can tell at a glance are of high price. Fei decorations. The decoration here is full of luxury, but there is a strange feeling that you have to praise the elegance.
Room No. 7 of the No. 1 Auction Hall of the Mingdu Grand Auction House is rectangular. One wall on the long side is crystal clear and white. Only that wall has no decoration.
The large sofa is made of unknown animal skin. The long white hair is extremely soft. When you sit on it, you feel like you are sinking into it, but it also has good support.
The sofa is large enough to accommodate at least twenty people, and a variety of drinks and food are placed on the jade table.
Lu Xueling, Xilin, Bella and Huo Yuhao walked into the private room under the guidance of a maid, sat on the sofa, and waited quietly.
“Sir, the auction will start soon. Please wait for a while with your companions. Of course, if you like other lots during the auction, you can also bid. In the end, you will earn gold soul coins from your lots. The profit will be deducted."
Lu Xueling nodded slightly: "I understand."
The maid bowed again: "All the food and drinks here are free after the bidding. , the auction items will be delivered to the room as soon as possible, all you need to do is make the final payment. The little lady excused herself."
Everyone was chewing on the tree of the Ten Thousand Demon King. Although the fruit was sweet, it had been a long time since he had eaten serious human food, especially for the young Xiao Yuhao. To him, these things were completely delicacies, so he served them to the table without saying a word and started to enjoy them.
Xilin and Lu Xueling each picked up a glass of juice and drank it, while Beibeilong was not interested in this. Of course, she took on the role of the Queen's dragon maid.
In just a few minutes, the entire room was filled with a layer of gold, and the three people and one dragon subconsciously turned their attention to the field under the glass.
The soft golden light that was not dazzling was emitted by the soul guide lamp in the box, and the originally warm and comfortable atmosphere suddenly became more noble.
Under the spotlight, a female auctioneer stepped forward. Salute respectfully to all guests.
She looked like she was only seventeen or eighteen years old. She was wearing a red dress and gauze that set off her icy skin. Her melodious voice sounded: "Welcome all distinguished guests to the top auction at Mingdu Auction House. Today, we will present a total of nine precious auction items to you, and we will display them in order from low to high value. I hope you will like them. ”
The first few items were of no interest to Lu Xueling and Xilin and were of little use. Xiao Yuhao was always lively, and his eyes sparkled when he looked at the precious lots. But he was a child after all. After only looking at them for a while, he focused his attention on other lots, and his eyes were filled with little stars.
"Human~I'm sleepy." Sirin put down the juice and reached out to rub her eyebrows.
Lu Xueling gently touched Xilin's head and said dotingly: "Then lean on me and take a nap."
"Hmm☆" Xilin snorted softly, She snuggled into Lu Xueling's arms and closed her eyes to rest.
Beibeilong was holding the fruit plate, and a small trace of jealousy quietly flashed through her eyes. She also wanted to use the Queen as a pillow, or even a knee pillow.
"The following is our third to last lot today. After this lot, it will be the finale of the day. I believe everyone will be very surprised by then."
The etiquette lady pushed the penultimate lot. As for the lot, it can be seen from the shape of the cloth that the size of this lot is not large, and the cloth is almost attached to the cart.
The female auctioneer walked to the cart with a loudspeaker soul guide in hand and introduced it with a smile: "I think all the distinguished guests here who have studied soul guides deeply must be familiar with this lot. It is also a soul guide." It often appears at auctions. It has a funny name, called: [Baby Bottle]." As she spoke, she lifted the curtain and took the item from the cart. stand up.
It was a silver necklace, and the pendant of the necklace was a metal pendant in the shape of a baby bottle, about the size of an adult's thumb.
Baby bottle? There seems to be some impression...
Lu Xueling's attention was slightly focused on this [baby bottle].
If I remember correctly, this is a soul guide that can store soul power. It is also an auxiliary soul guide that increases the combat endurance of the soul master. If only he could study and improve it...
While Lu Xueling's thoughts were spinning, the auctioneer's introduction was still going on.
"The scientific name of this bottle should be called Charged Soul Guidance Device. It can be used by both soul masters and soul engineers. The bottle can be a soul guidance device of any level, but it must be made by at least a third-level soul master."
< br>"The role of the milk bottle is naturally to replenish soul power. A milk bottle of any level can replenish the same amount of soul power of a soul master of any level. When using it, you only need to charge the soul power in advance. But it also has certain restrictions. That is, when using it, you must stop and absorb it with all your heart, otherwise you will not be able to guide this soul power if you are not focused."
"Okay, let's start the auction. The starting price is six thousand gold. Soul coins, each increase will be no less than one hundred gold soul coins.”
After the auctioneer’s introduction, the competitors immediately raised their bids and the price reached the price of 13,000 in less than a minute.
“Huo Yuhao.” Lu Xueling suddenly shouted.
Huo Yuhao, who was watching the auction attentively, immediately turned his head and looked at Lu Xueling with a bit of awe: "Mr. Lu?"
Lu Xueling turned the straw in his hand and said seriously: "I plan to I took this photo and gave it to you. This is both a gift and a future task for you."
"For me?" Huo Yuhao pointed to himself, with a hint of uncertainty on his face. expression.
Lu Xueling nodded calmly and said: "Yes."
As he said that, he raised the sign and quoted: "30,000."
When the VIP box quoted the price, the whole place fell silent instantly. The female auctioneer's eyes changed from a professional smile to an eager look. No one disliked the funder.
Besides, she has news in her hand that the final auction item will be provided by this distinguished guest.
“Thirty thousand once, thirty thousand twice, thirty thousand gold soul coins three times, deal done!”
Perhaps to give Lu Xueling a good impression, the female auctioneer dropped the hammer so quickly Very quickly, I got the bottle.
It’s only 30,000 yuan, which is far less than one thousandth of the starting price of the Shura Divine Sword fragments he released. To say it’s a drop in the bucket is an exaggeration.
So next...
Opposite Lu Xueling's box, there was an old man sitting. He looked to be in his forties. He was not tall, but very wide. To describe it in the simplest terms, Just short and fat.
The short and fat figure is undoubtedly not suitable for long hair, but he has long hair. The brown-red hair is scattered behind his head, which makes his short and thick neck look a bit ugly. Cleared.
He is less than 1.5 meters tall, but his waistline is definitely over 1.5 meters. The black robe with gold threads covers his round belly.
(Don’t blame me, Huang San really describes his appearance in this world)
"The fragments of the artifact... can you get such a rare treasure, who are you? But at least, this hall master swears to get it!!"
