Chapter 122: Master Blacksmith
Shabak Auction House, second floor, general item appraisal room.
Led by Xiao Tie, Ling Yi and his party of six filed in and saw three tables and three figures inside.
An old man with his eyes closed and concentrating, and two middle-aged people each holding an object and studying it. They are both wearing black robes. They must be the professionals here who are responsible for appraising the value of objects.
Xiao Tie led Ling Yi to the middle-aged man at the table closest to the door, and said to Ling Yi: "Dear guest, this is the No. 3 appraiser of our auction house..."
"Uncle Kui~" Xiao Tie said to appraiser No. 3: "Please appraise this distinguished guest's items and give them a price -"
"Oh?" He was called Uncle Kui. Appraiser No. 3 raised his head and glanced at Xiao Tie, then at Ling Yi and the others. Ling Yi happened to smile at him and nodded. He immediately put down the crystal disk in his hand and put it aside, with his fingers on He nodded on the table and said:
"Okay, then ask the guests to take out the things so I can take a look -"
"A Yin~" Ling Yi turned his head and looked He turned to his side, crossed Qingqiu Xin, and said to Long Yin: "Take it out~"
"Okay! Brother Yi~" Long Yin responded crisply and quickly untied the tie. Knotted on the chest, he took off the package on his back and handed it to Ling Yi.
Ling Yi took it and put the package on the table in front of him. He opened it without any hesitation, revealing a set of 'clothes' inside.
The ‘clothes’ are silver-gray as a whole. Set against the dark green wrapping cloth, they look gray and not very conspicuous.
Ling Yi picked up the folded 'clothes' and spread them flat on the table. Then he stretched out his hand to the appraiser No. 3 in front of him and made a 'please' gesture.
Seeing how relaxed and casual Ling Yi was when he picked up the 'clothes', Appraiser No. 3's eyes, which were originally interested because of the metallic color on the 'clothes', became much calmer, and he sat up straight with an indifferent expression. He moved his hands towards the unfolded vest-style 'clothes'.
However, the expression of Appraiser No. 3, who had just touched this vest, changed: "This touch——?"
Those who can succeed in appraisal must not only be well-informed, but also have a very keen sense of perception.
In terms of sight, nose, smell, touch, etc., whether single or multiple, there must always be talents that are beyond ordinary people.
So, with just a touch, Appraiser No. 3 discovered that the material of this vest-style ‘clothes’ was very unusual.
A look of interest reappeared in his eyes. He did not continue to pick up the vest to check. Instead, he took a handkerchief on the side and wiped his hands well before reaching for the vest again.
This time, appraiser No. 3 grabbed the shoulders of the vest and lifted it up, preparing to pick it up and take a closer look.
Who would have known that at this moment, his movements paused. He glanced at Ling Yi, who was still smiling. Appraiser No. 3 remained silent and put a little strength on his hands before picking up the vest. , and brought it in front of him.
Next, I saw the No. 3 appraiser. First he stood up and pulled hard on the fabric of the vest. Then he took another one with a protrusion in the middle and polished thin transparent crystals on both sides. He glanced at the vest that was put back on the table.
After seeing it, I put down the transparent crystal, picked up a gleaming dagger again, and started to operate on the vest in my hand, either stabbing or slicing...
< br>As early as when appraiser No. 3 stood up and pulled his vest hard, his movement had already attracted the attention of the other two appraisers in the room.
When he picked up the dagger and operated it, another middle-aged appraiser wanted to say something, but the old man raised his hand to stop him. After about ten minutes, appraiser No. 3 finally put down the vest and dagger in his hands, and said to Ling Yi with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "I'm ashamed, I can only see that this is a brand new metal, which is made by drawing wires." The inner armor is woven by hand, and the weaving skills are very dexterous. The texture and performance of this new metal are also excellent, making this inner armor quite good in defense. The specific level requires further testing..."
Hearing this, Ling Yi and others nodded, and followed Appraiser No. 3 towards the innermost door of the appraisal room.
The old appraiser and the middle-aged appraiser who were watching on the sidelines immediately followed, while Xiaotie turned around and walked out of the appraisal room.
Ling Yi and others pushed the door open and entered a large space of about one hundred square meters. The surrounding walls were covered tightly with steel plates. In the corner near the door, there were some piles of Utensils of different shapes.
"Guest~" Appraiser No. 3 introduced to Ling Yi: "This is the weapons laboratory of our auction house, specially used to test the power of weapons and the defensive power of armor~"
< br>
Just as he was talking, he saw three figures walking in from the direction of the door behind him.
The three figures are tall, short, fat and thin. Some are older and some are younger. The older one looks in his late twenties and almost thirty years old. The younger one looks seventeen or eighteen years old. Xiao Tie is standing on the right. In the center is a tall, strong young man with a dark face, and on the left is a thin, short-haired young man.
Next, I saw Appraiser No. 3 put the metal inner armor in his hand on a human-shaped wooden stake, and the three people, including Xiao Tie, took turns releasing their martial spirits. He used his soul skills one after another to attack the wooden stakes wearing metal inner armor.
The short-haired boy's name is Xu Yixiu. His martial spirit is "Pekko Hedgehog". A white spirit ring hovers under his feet and launches a round of spike-like flying needle attacks. Under his control, most of the attacks They all landed on the metal inner armor, but unfortunately each one was bounced away without leaving even a trace.
However, looking at the several sharp thorns that penetrated three-thirds of the wood on the brown wooden stake, and the one or two sharp thorns that were inserted behind the wooden stake without falling off, you can know that even though the attack power of this soul skill is It has not reached a hundred years, but it is definitely the best among soul skills under a hundred years!
Xu Yixiu, a short-haired boy, returned without success. The person who followed him forward was actually Xiao Tie. He held a "straight-backed knife" more than four feet long in his hand, and his aura changed from harmless to humans and animals to fierce.
With a sound of "cang bang", the second yellow soul ring under his feet shone brightly. Xiaotie instantly crossed the distance of three meters, holding the knife in both hands and slashing down diagonally, slashing hard to the metal inner armor on the wooden pile. superior.
Unfortunately, apart from the fact that the wooden pile was tilted back thirty degrees due to force, it still failed to leave any traces on the metal inner armor.
Just when the black-faced young man Wu Jinyuan summoned the "Hammer" martial spirit, and the white and yellow spirit rings on his body were beating up and down, and he was about to step forward, Jiang Yuan, who had been watching silently from the side, moved.
I saw him stretching out his right hand, the martial soul "Iron Gauntlet" appeared, and five circles of yellow, yellow, purple, and black halos hovered under his feet.
"Don't waste time~" Jiang Yuan said in a calm tone and said concisely: "This inner armor is enough to withstand more than five consecutive attacks from the fourth soul skill of the offensive type soul master!"
As he said that, he spoke from the inside. The fourth purple halo outside lit up, and a red beam of light emitted from Jiang Yuan's hand, blasting straight towards the wooden piles and metal inner armor near the wall seven or eight meters away.
"Clang——! Chi! Dang——!"
First there was a sound of gold and iron, and then the base of the wooden pile was pressed against the steel plate wall with huge force, and finally it was unbearable The powerful metal inner armor then hit the steel plate, making a crisp sound.
“……”
After Jiang Yuan struck, he withdrew his martial spirit and said nothing more. The laboratory fell into silence for a while.
