Chapter 177 The Divine Object "Spiritual Fountain" (6k1)


Chapter 177 The divine object "Spring of Spirituality" (6k1)

After Gawain finished speaking, a gentle smile appeared on his face and he looked at the guests who were whispering in the audience.

"Spiritual Fountain" is a "divine object". It is a treasure that definitely retains the traces of the Pillar Gods, or the "gods" who were once expected to become Pillar Gods. It comes from the Age of Gods, when the gods were still walking in the world. , the treasures they left behind.

Generally speaking, for ancient relics such as "gods", they can usually only be found from equally ancient ruins or from "ancient seals" of high enough status.

In the extraordinary world, countless people flock to these "gods" because they all have the same characteristic - their remaining true divinity gives them "law"-like abilities, which are independent of the extraordinary themselves. beyond the destiny ability.

When they heard Lord Gawain mention the term "the divine object 'spiritual spring'", most of the extraordinary beings in the audience felt strong shock and desire in their hearts!
——That is a "divine object"! Under the public trust verification of Black Sword Mansion, it is a genuine "god"!
And Lord Gawain was going to auction a divine artifact, which made many people's hearts start to get excited.

The most shocking one among them was the young extraordinary person sitting in the seat on the left who had just bought the heart of the broken god "False Vikal" for 13,000 gold coins.

The expression on Luo Xiu's face became a little complicated.

When he heard Gawain say the "divine object" the spring of spirituality, his heart jumped suddenly.

Luo Xiu was no stranger to the concept of "gods", and was even quite familiar with it.

Because he has one in his hand. "The Divine Object 'Double-Sided Doll'" is also a treasure that still retains traces of the gods. The power it possesses that is close to the "law" is the function of "washing points".

As for the "spring of spirituality" that Gawain mentioned, Luo Xiu understood his true role as soon as he heard it.

"……grass,"

"I didn't expect that the 'experience pool' would appear here!"

Luo Xiu thought to himself, his pupils trembled slightly, and when there was no one in front of him, he no longer concealed the strong shock in his heart.

Luo Xiu is also quite familiar with the "god" spiritual spring.

In the previous life, when the "Spiritual Fountain" first appeared, it was at the "Golden Country Bank" in Songyuan City.

Its owner is none other than the president of the bank, Qiao Devin, who has the fifth destiny of [Nothingness]. Now it seems that Qiao Devin must have acquired it indirectly through someone in this auction.

This is enough to show that the auction of "Spring of Spirituality" is indeed authentic.

As for the "god" spiritual spring, its real ability to approach "laws" is to "store" and "distribute" spirituality, that is, "experience."

Players can store experience points, and other players can withdraw experience points!
This is a very important function. In his previous life, the "experience pool" held by Qiao Devin gave countless players a way to become stronger faster, and also opened up a new market for trading experience for money.

The main beneficiaries of the emergence of "Spiritual Fountain" are actually player groups operating in the form of "guilds".

A large number of player members with mid-range combat power are responsible for liver experience. After paying the usage fee of the "Spiritual Fountain", they can "store" their experience points into the "Spiritual Fountain", while the high-end combat power of the guild will be transferred from "Receive" these experiences from the "Spiritual Fountain" to achieve rapid upgrading of top members.

Although this method of transferring experience through the "Spring of Spirituality" will cause a considerable loss of experience points along the way, it is still an extremely efficient way to upgrade.

In the first major version of "God's Destiny", version 1.0 of "Judgment War", the highest level players can reach is lv.30, and the highest number of destinies is three of any destinies.

Generally speaking, it takes an average of about three months for players to reach the level limit of version 1.0 by relying solely on themselves. However, using the ability of the "Spring of Spirituality", they can shorten this time to one month!

When Luo Xiu recalled this, his eyes flashed with deep light, and a strong desire for this divine object "Spring of Spirituality" emerged uncontrollably in his heart.

Listening to Gawain's previous description, it is obvious that he does not know the true function of the sacred "spiritual spring". This is the limitation of the natives! Luo Xiu thought with some satisfaction.

Luo Xiu can probably guess that the "friend" Gawain mentioned was that he blindly poured most of his experience, that is, "spirituality" into it because he did not understand the function of the "spring of spirituality". , causing him to lose his extraordinary power.

However, Gawain's friend was able to discover the "Storage of Spirituality" property of the "Fountain of Spirituality", which means that he accidentally turned on a "switch" and was able to take out his "deposited" experience - just like this If so, for a single transcendent person, part of the "spirituality" will inevitably be lost.

Later, the "friend" probably understood the removed spirituality as a "gift" from the divine object itself, so he "deposited" and "withdrawed" his own spirituality again, which ultimately caused him to lose all spirituality and also lose All extraordinary powers.

Similar things often happen in the world of Apocalypse, and the "friend" caused the tragedy precisely because he was unable to control the "quantity" of storing and extracting spirituality from the "spiritual spring".

Lord Gawain attributes this to "the price of power."

Luo Xiu's eyes suddenly became profound.

There was no time to think about why Lord Gawain would auction the "Fountain of Spirituality" at this time. At this time, Luo Xiu only knew one thing -

He was bound to get this divine object, the "Spring of Spirituality".

Definitely get it! While no one discovers his true role, "one hundred thousand gold coins", this is really a very low price!

After finishing this complicated thinking for a moment, Luo Xiu looked at the extraordinary beings in other seats who were eager to try.

After Gawain announced the starting price, no one has accepted the bid yet - for most extraordinary people, "one hundred thousand gold coins" is indeed a very high price.

Moreover, the guests in the audience also have their own concerns.

Because the price mentioned by Lord Gawain before, for most of them, it is necessary to carefully consider how much chips should be paid for it.

Seeing that no one had accepted the bidding price of 100,000 gold coins yet, Luo Xiu turned sideways, turned back to Intis, who was standing behind him, and said:

"Intis, lend me your bell."

...a bell? Intis was stunned, but she did not ask why. Instead, she put her left hand on the bracelet on her right hand and took out the string of ancient bells.

Luo Xiu reached out to take it and opened the panel. Brand-new text appeared on the panel.

"Civet Soul Bell", this is the bell that Indis carries with him, and it is also a special extraordinary equipment of "rare" quality.

Previously, when Luo Xiu asked Indis to "interrogate" Saint and Nayef, she used this string of bells to hypnotize them and confuse their minds.

After quickly browsing the panel, Luo Xiu roughly understood the usage of the bell.

He then opened his palm and completely grasped the whole bunch of bells in his hand, so that when it was shaken later, it would make as little noise as possible.

Then, Luo Xiu shook his palm lightly, and a certain hint appeared in his mind...

"——[I have assets of one million Nolan gold coins]."

He started to hypnotize himself and bewitch himself!

Because Gawain's previous offer was too high, far exceeding Luo Xiu's only three hundred platinum coins - after deducting the price of the Broken God's Heart, the remaining balance of one hundred and seventy platinum coins, even if Including the principal he invested in the "Golden State Bank" and deducting the withdrawal discount, he can only withdraw assets of more than 100,000 gold coins at most at a time.

This is only enough to reach the starting price of the sacred object "Spring of Spirituality", but Luo Xiu believes that if you want to get this sacred object, this price is definitely not enough! Far from enough!

Luo Xiu then simply confused himself early in order to bypass the restrictions of the "Black Sword Oath" so that he could quote the highest price for the "Spiritual Fountain"!

As for what happens next, let’s think about it later!

——Dingling... The "Civet Soul Bell" was tightly held in the palm of my hand. Its originally clear ringing tone became tinny and dull through the palm of my hand.

Luo Xiu also injected an appropriate amount of spirituality into the bell. He immediately felt that deep in his mind, the hint he had just set for himself seemed to be "replacing" some of his original feelings in some way. some intuition.

Because of Luo Xiu's tacit approval, this process went particularly smoothly.

However, this kind of self-hypnosis and self-suggestion is not permanent. The spirituality that Luo Xiu poured into the bell can last for about half a day, and then Luo Xiu's memory will return to its normal shape.

When all this was completed, Luo Xiu returned the bell to Intis.

For Luo Xiu at this time, he knew that he had just performed self-hypnosis, and therefore forgot some "not important" memories, and his consciousness became a little confused for a while.

However, as the fog of confusion gradually dissipated, an extremely clear idea gradually emerged in Luo Xiu's mind.

"——[I have assets of one million Nolan gold coins]!"

This idea was in Luo Xiu's mind and was gradually accepted as a "real memory". However, hidden around this memory, other "voices of memory" also emerged.

"Don't be too arrogant", "Behave as usual", "Can only be used for quotations", "Don't care about doubts"... one prompt after another sounded from the side, making Luo Xiu quickly understand.

These are all the protective locks Luo Xiu has set up to protect himself from possible overturning while performing autosuggestion. Gradually, as the hint of "one million assets" came true, Luo Xiu's mentality became more cautious and more confident.

After all this was done, Luo Xiu raised his eyes and looked around, with a smile on his face.

Only half a minute has passed since Lord Gawain announced the starting price for the "Fountain of Spirituality". No one has accepted Gawain's offer yet, and everyone is waiting and watching.

Finally, when about ten seconds passed, in the "VIP" seat in the middle of the front row, a woman with blood-red hair raised her hand.

"I'll go first, 100,000 gold coins, Lord. The divine object is not important. What I care more about is buying your connections."

This woman's voice is high-pitched and rough, like a female mercenary who often hangs out in the Adventurer's Guild. When she was the first to accept Gawain's offer, a bright and gentle smile appeared on Gawain's face.

"Thank you for your generosity, madam." Gawain said with a smile, "Then, one hundred thousand gold coins once."

When Lord Gawain's words fell, a man wearing a white-faced black-patterned cloak on the right side of the front row also raised his hand, "Haha... 'Godly object'... No matter how high the price is, It is a divine item after all...I will pay one hundred and five thousand..."

——One hundred and five thousand gold coins! This is only the second quotation, and there is an increase of 5,000 gold coins! That’s enough to buy an entire lot from a previous sale!
Luo Xiu thought to himself, his expression at this time was quite shocking, and he almost had "horrible" written on his face.

But this was not the final price. Luo Xiu soon heard the third voice.

"Cough cough, cough cough..." The source of the voice was an old lady, and she sounded not in good health. There was a heavy sound of sputum stuck in her cough, "...old man...cough cough, old man...ten Thirty thousand gold coins…”—One hundred and thirty thousand gold coins! This is another twenty-five thousand more than last time! The shock on Luo Xiu's face became more intense.

However, Luo Xiu has no worries now. After all, he has assets of one million gold coins, which is still within his acceptable range.

When the old lady quoted a price of 130,000 gold coins, Luo Xiu immediately raised his arms and shouted in a deep voice: "140,000 gold coins."

This is the one who uses the most concise words among the four quoters. With a "swish" sound, many eyes suddenly gathered over.

The guest sitting in the ordinary seat on the left is the first person to participate in the bidding of the "VIPs" as an "ordinary guest"!

After Luo Xiu made the quotation, Lord Gawain on the stage looked at Luo Xiu.

For some reason, Luo Xiu seemed to see that Gawain's brows seemed to frown tightly for a moment, but then relaxed again, with that gentle smile still on his face.

"One hundred and forty thousand gold coins, ah, this is a new guest, what a surprise!"

When Luo Xiu reported the quotation of 140,000 gold coins, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became quiet, and no new quotations appeared.

The red-haired lady sitting in the VIP seat in the front row suddenly laughed and said:

"Humph, 140,000 gold coins! Why the hell didn't I see that this thing is worth 140,000 gold coins! Lord Gawain, I'm sorry, your connections don't seem to be worth the price."

"..."

"I'm sorry, ma'am."

Unexpectedly, Lord Gawain was not angry, but nodded gracefully to the lady, "I deeply regret that I did not receive your approval."

"Uh..." The red-haired lady was immediately choked by Gawain's words. The words she originally wanted to use to "counterattack" Lord Gawain's anger were swallowed back in her stomach.

Gawain no longer paid attention to the episode here. His eyes swept across the audience, waiting for the next bidder to appear.

Three seconds later, a guest sitting in the middle seat on the right slowly raised his hand and said:

"I'll pay you 150,000 gold coins."

Okay... 150,000 gold coins! Luo Xiu's eyelids twitched.

Even if you have money, why are these people charging thousands and tens of thousands more! Luo Xiu then raised his hand again and quoted: "One hundred and sixty thousand gold coins."

Uh-huh! Luo Xiu once again felt the fiery gazes of all the guests.

He vaguely heard that someone seemed to be discussing in whispers the origin of the guest sitting in the seat on the left.

Uh... If you are exposed, just use the name "Alerdine Manston" to stop the gun... The first heir of the El Dorado family should be able to afford a mere hundred thousand Nolan gold coins. …

While Luo Xiu was thinking, his left leg was crossed over his right leg, with his hands folded in front of his chest. At the same time, he looked up at the guests in other seats, imitating the sitting posture of the gangsters in the previous movies and TV series, with a "I Invincible, carefree" attitude.

"One hundred and sixty thousand gold coins a time, this new friend is really more and more surprising." Gawain said with a smile.

"..." Luo Xiu had no expression on his face and just nodded slightly in greeting. He leaned back and leaned on the back of the sofa, waiting for possible bidding rivals to appear.

Three seconds later, the customer in the middle seat on the right who had previously offered 150,000 yuan raised his hand again.

"I'll pay you 180,000 gold coins."

Fuck... 180,000 gold coins! Luo Xiu's thoughts were racing, and he raised his head to see who was bidding.

Looking across the rows of seats in the middle, Luo Xiu saw the figure of the person bidding against him in the seat on the left.

The man was wearing a gorgeous white robe, embellished with exquisite gold patterns. His hair was the color of gold scattered like stars in the night sky, and there was a necklace of gold carvings hanging around his neck.

This image gave Luo Xiu a sudden premonition...

I'm afraid this is not a person from the "Golden Kingdom"... Could it be that Qiao Dewen in his previous life got the "spring of spirituality" from him?
Such a possibility came to Luo Xiu's mind.

Although he was wearing a mask, judging from the skin on the man's neck and arms, he shouldn't be too old.

If he really came from the "Golden Country", his reason for wanting to buy the sacred object "Spiritual Fountain" might be very simple...

As President Qiao Dewen's eyeliner, he buys certain auction items with "investment value"; or for personal collection, giving gifts as favors, etc... For such simple and unpretentious reasons, the big businessmen of the "El Dorado" do indeed They will spend a lot of money to buy what they like.

What kind of... would he be? Luo Xiu fell into thinking, but with millions of assets, he still had the confidence to bid with people suspected of being from the Golden Kingdom.

Luo Xiu then raised his arms and shouted in a low voice: "Two hundred thousand gold coins."

——Two hundred thousand gold coins! Luo Xiu could already hear the exclamations from other seats.

He somewhat enjoyed this feeling.

Suddenly, Luo Xiu felt a cold touch coming from the back of his neck.

Luo Xiu turned around and met Intis's eyes.

From those green eyes, Luo Xiu saw strong doubts, panic and worry.

"Lord, you, you..." Intis leaned down and said softly, "Have you forgotten? We...we don't have that much money..."

Don’t have that much money? Luo Xiu frowned slightly, but his subconscious told him that even if this was really the case, he had already prepared a way out.

"It doesn't matter, Intis." Luo Xiu smiled and said, "Trust me."

"..." Intis said nothing, but the worry in his eyes did not diminish at all.

Gao Wen on the high platform raised his eyebrows, and he looked at Luo Xiu with more appreciation.

Gawain then said loudly:

"Two hundred thousand gold coins! This is already double the starting price of the 'Fountain of Spirituality'! Does anyone want to give a higher bid?"

Lord Gawain asked three times in a row, but this time, no one gave a higher price.

The person suspected of being from the "El Dorado" did not continue bidding. He seemed to feel that the "Spiritual Fountain" that exceeded 200,000 gold coins had lost its investment value.

"The final transaction price of the sacred object 'Spring of Spirituality' - two hundred thousand gold coins!"

Gawain clapped his hands, and then looked at Luo Xiu again, with a bright smile on his face, and announced:

"Congratulations, sir. The sacred object 'Spring of Spirituality' belongs to you."

Finally... Luo Xiu breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling physically and mentally comfortable.

His current mood was like that of a soldier who had just returned from a tough battle in triumph.

Luo Xiu then nodded slightly to Lord Gawain in response.

Although the person behind her... she seemed to be a little afraid of something, Luo Xiu felt that it shouldn't be a big problem.

After that, Lord Gawain bowed slightly to the audience, and then said loudly:

"Thank you all, I hope the 'interlude' I inserted on a whim can bring you a moment of joy."

After saying that, Lord Gawain bowed again, then turned around and retreated behind the scenes.

Lord Gawain left the scene, and he appeared in person, seemingly just to auction a divine item, the "Fountain of Spirituality"...

Luo Xiu thought to himself, and as the final winner of the "Spring of Spirituality", he would definitely meet this Lord again in the future.

Combining the memories of his previous life, this should not be too dangerous, and to say the least, he has not revealed his identity as a priest of the Sina City Church... The worst case scenario is that he will make the payment himself. Run away and let Mir, who registered as a member here, take the blame... Moreover, Mir should have used a false identity when he registered as a member... Luo Xiu thought like this, so he no longer thought about Lord Gawain. thing.

The curtain on the stage was raised again. After a while, when it slowly opened to both sides again, the graceful figure of "Night Witch" Niaf reappeared on the high stage.

Niaf lifted up her skirt, bowed slightly to the audience, and then said in a soft voice:

"So, all the lots put out by the mansion have found new homes."

"This is exactly the significance of the antiquities auction held by the Black Sword Mansion. On behalf of the mansion, I would like to sincerely thank everyone present."

"Then, next."

Niaf paused for a moment, and then with a clear voice, she announced loudly to everyone in the audience:
"The dance at the mansion has ended, and the feast for friends and friends has begun!"

"Please show me the valuable things you have collected."

"The mansion will witness it. Free and beautiful transactions are born in this auditorium!"
