Among the guests below the private room, what no one noticed was that since the first work of the alchemist master came on stage, the red-robed chief shepherd of the Sun God Dynasty and Norman had been sitting in the two private rooms above.
The face of the general of the empire became serious. He seemed to be slightly nervous. He paid more attention to every item auctioned in the auction below, especially those works made by alchemists.
Pay more attention.
Not only the people in the private room, but also the guests below, many people have begun to be surprised. For some reason, there seem to be more alchemist works in today's auction. You must know that in previous years, the alchemist
Most of his works are hard to come by. What happened this year? Who has such a big hand and can produce so many things at once?
Zhang Tie flipped through the auction manual. Among the catalog pages of this manual, the introduction to the auction items from the Alchemist was the simplest.
——There are also several works by alchemist masters participating in this auction. Since the consignor requested that the auction items be kept confidential before the official auction, they will not be introduced here. Please stay tuned.
After the sunstone necklace, several more works by master alchemists came on stage.
The second work of the master alchemist is the Pato stone ring, which can enhance the dual effects of calmness and quick thinking on the human body. This kind of ring is the favorite of almost all battlefield commanders and intelligence-related professions. This ring is rated as 4.9
Bought it for 10,000 gold coins.
The third work of the alchemist master is a pair of heavenly iron earrings. The effect of this pair of heavenly iron earrings is to allow people to concentrate their energy during practice, quickly enter samadhi, and reduce the chance of being possessed by fire by half. This thing is also a great tool for practitioners.
The treasure was finally bought for 52,600 gold coins.
The fourth work of the master alchemist is a lapis lazuli forehead ornament. Its function is to nourish spiritual power, make people's spiritual power more agile, and increase people's perception ability. This piece can play a role in and enhance spiritual power.
The forehead ornament with human sentience once again achieved a sky-high price at auction, 62,800 gold coins.
When this lapis lazuli forehead ornament appeared, the atmosphere in the entire venue was already sensational. No one could have imagined that at this winter auction of Sowers Auction House, four alchemy pieces could be seen at once.
In the past, it would have been nice to have one or two such works by the master. What happened this year? What’s even more strange is that the styles of these works all seem to be used by women, and they vaguely seem to be the same set.
.
Impossible, even the queen of the Norman Empire would never have such an exaggerated handiwork. To be able to have such a priceless set of jewelry made for her by a master alchemist - many people who participated in the auction said secretly in their hearts.
Even Zhang Tie seemed to feel that something was wrong with this auction at this time. An undercurrent and restlessness were quietly surging. This undercurrent was reflected in people's emotions when they heard the auctioneer saying
When the name of the next auction item was announced, many people on the seats stood up in shock. The entire venue let out a collective gasp of air-conditioning.
"The next item that is about to come on stage is also the work of a master alchemist. This is a pair of bracelets that inspire all the special abilities of garnet. The efficacy of this bracelet is definitely the favorite of all beauty-loving ladies. It has
The effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin can improve the skin quality and increase the vitality of the body's qi and blood. It is also beneficial to the health of the female reproductive system and related organs..."
Zhang Tie's eyes followed the auctioneer's words and landed on the projection wall behind the auction table. At this moment, the picture of the pair of garnet bracelets was magnified many times and appeared there. This allowed more people to see the bracelets clearly.
details on.
In Zhang Tie's eyes, they were a pair of garnet bracelets, but not a pair of garnet bracelets. The pair of bracelets had a garnet red with purple brilliance. They looked exactly like garnets, but strangely, they were originally pure.
On the surface of the garnet, if you look closely, there are actually some mysterious small patterns revealed from the inside of the garnet. This is a pattern that Zhang Tie cannot see on any other garnet. If this pair of bracelets were not big enough, those
The tiny mysterious patterns are almost impossible to see from Zhang Tie's position.
Is that the trace left by the ability of the alchemists to open and activate this stone? This seems to be the only difference in appearance between this pair of garnet bracelets and those that can be bought for a dozen silver coins, of course
, the brilliance of this pair of garnet bracelets seems to be brighter. Zhang Tie secretly guessed.
He guessed correctly.
"You can see that the master alchemist has successfully inspired three stone flowers on this pair of garnet bracelets. These three stone flowers represent the activation of the three characteristics and abilities of garnet. This is
This is the first auction item with three attributes. It may not be used for fighting or practicing, but it can make a woman's beauty last longer and make her healthier. Therefore, the starting price of this pair of bracelets
It’s 38,000 gold coins, and every increase will be no less than..."
Before the auctioneer had finished speaking, a man sitting in the second row in front of Zhang Tie couldn't help but make an offer, "I'll offer 50,000 gold coins!"
"Do you want to take away this pair of bracelets for 50,000 gold coins? I'll pay 55,000 gold coins!"
"I offer 56,000 gold coins!"
"58,000 gold coins..."
"60,000 gold coins..."
The price of the pair of garnet bracelets soared to more than 70,000 gold coins in a short time. At this price, many people who had just started bidding chickened out, but there were still a few wealthy and powerful guests vying for it, refusing to give in to each other.
.
In Chinese idioms, there is an allusion called Midas touch, which is a method only used by gods in Chinese myths and legends. But at this moment, looking at the originally inexpensive garnet, it suddenly turned into something more expensive.
The same weight of gold is tens of thousands of times more valuable. At this moment, even using the phrase "turning stone into gold" is no longer enough.
Zhang Tie was sitting in his seat. Every time he heard a quotation, his body could not help but tremble slightly. This was not fear, but excitement, excitement, or excitement that Zhang Tie himself did not know...
"I offer 100,000 gold coins!" A man sitting in the first row of the auction suddenly stood up and said loudly. After quoting the price, the man lifted up his cloak and hood, took off the bronze mask on his face, and turned around.
Turning around, she revealed the face of a forty-year-old MILF who still has the charm. This woman has pink face and rosy cheeks, and long, curved eyes. In her mature and coquettish appearance, she seems to have a sharp evil spirit, and she stares
All the guests at the back had smiles on their faces, but their words were a bit aggressive. "I'm going to order this pair of bracelets. I'll see who wants to snatch them from me..."
"Black Widow!" Several guests at the back took a breath of air, and someone muttered to themselves.
The auction was quiet for a while.
Zhang Tie didn't know who the Black Widow was, but judging from the look of this woman, it seemed that many people knew her identity, and this woman seemed to be very feared, at least at this time. It seemed that no one was willing to shell out more than 100,000.
Gold coins, buy a pair of bracelets, and offend this woman by the way.
Seeing that no one said anything at the venue, the woman turned her head and looked at the auctioneer. Without saying a word, the auctioneer holding a small hammer on the stage swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Someone is bidding 100,000 gold coins now. Is there anything higher? Yes.
There’s no higher one, is there? Then three, two, one, deal!”
The hammer hit with a loud bang, and the woman named Black Widow sat down again, while the auctioneer on the stage had a small bead of sweat on his forehead.
"The following is the last item in this auction that was made by the master alchemist..."
As the auctioneer said, the people below suddenly almost burst into an uproar.
"What, there are also auction items from the hands of master alchemists. Is this winter auction of Sols a special event for alchemists?"
"Impossible, this is already the sixth item. Even in other larger auctions, there are rarely so many alchemy items at one time!"
"I had known that there would be so many alchemy items this time. According to the rules, Sowers Auction House should have informed us at least one month in advance so that we could raise funds. This time, there was a surprise attack. There was no news before the auction.
, what does this mean?" Many people started to clamor with dissatisfaction and pointed their fingers at the auction house.
"If I had known the news a month earlier, I would never have let go of that Patto stone ring just now!"
"Sauls Auction House has to give us an explanation!"
"We need an explanation!"
Zhang Tie looked at the suddenly noisy auction venue with interest. Even two people around him stood up and shouted loudly with excitement. These dissatisfied people were all blaming Sowers Auction House for not following the rules.
The auction house's obligation to inform them even caught them off guard at the auction. The transactions for those alchemy items easily cost tens of thousands of gold coins, and the highest one had soared to one hundred thousand gold coins. This amount of money, no matter who it was, was a huge deal.
It is not a small amount. For some people participating in the auction, it is also a problem to come up with such a large amount of money in a hurry if there is no time to prepare.
The auctioneer on the stage was quite embarrassed and could not cope with so many accusations. Just when the crowd was getting more and more excited and it seemed that the entire auction would be unable to continue, an old man in his 60s suddenly appeared on the auction stage.
superior.
As soon as the old man appeared on the auction stage, the auctioneer hurriedly retreated to the backstage as if he was receiving an amnesty. At the same time, Zhang Tie also noticed that even though the auction venue was somewhat disorderly, from beginning to end, the people sitting in the box upstairs were
Neither the representatives of the Sun God Dynasty nor the Norman Empire made any representations.
"Everyone..." As soon as the old man came out and looked around, the excited and dissatisfied crowd suddenly became quieter. Many people seemed to know who this old man was. "As the person in charge of the Sowers Business Group, I am very excited about today."
I deeply regret the trouble this auction will bring to everyone, but at the same time, I have to tell you honestly that as the organizer of the auction, we know that there will be a batch of alchemy items in this auction.
It was one day ago, at this time, that there was no time to inform everyone, but only ten minutes before the auction started this morning, this batch of alchemical items was escorted to the auction house, and we knew exactly what this batch of alchemical items was.
What is it? We are equally shocked by this, and at the same time, we cannot refuse the confidentiality request made by the owner of this batch of alchemical items!"
"Who is it?" There was a hoarse voice in the seat below who had obviously taken voice-changing pills, echoing under the brass mask, "Who is the auctioneer of this batch of alchemical items? For Sowers Auction House, this is
The request and attitude are almost rude, we want to know whose request the Soles Business Group cannot refuse?"
The old man standing on the auction stage took a deep breath, "It is the Selindore family that entrusted Sowers Auction House to auction the alchemy items in front, including the last pair of alchemy items!"
The entire venue fell silent instantly. The Celindor family, also known as the Iron Gate family, is the ruling family of Karur City. The entire Karur can be as large as it is today. It can be said that it is several times smaller than the entire Iron Gate family.
It is inseparable from the painstaking efforts of generations. The "Iron Gate T21" brought by the fat man Barry during Zhang Tie's trial was produced by the Celindor family. This family dominated Karur City and was also the former Anda
It is the largest arms supplier and machine manufacturer in the Manchester Alliance. Compared with this family, families such as Gregory of Black Flame City are completely upstarts in the countryside.
I don't know why. At this time, Zhang Tie had a vague feeling that something big was going to happen at today's auction.
"If you have no doubts, then we will conduct the auction of the last alchemical item today, because this last alchemical item is extraordinary. There has never been such an item auctioned in the history of Sowers Auction House.
Maybe you have never seen such a thing so close. So when this thing comes out, please stay calm, don’t panic, and don’t try to come up to watch or touch out of curiosity. In order to avoid unnecessary
It's troublesome and dangerous. We will take some measures for this. Please understand!" After the old man finished speaking, he clapped his hands. Immediately, a group of fully armed soldiers walked out from the backstage of the auction stage. Each one applied solemnly.
The auction table was surrounded, basically isolating the auction table from the guests below.
After the team of soldiers completed their vigilance, two men with white gloves came up from the backstage each carrying a silver metal suitcase. Then they carefully placed the suitcase on the auction table for display.
On the cabinet, carefully open the suitcase. Adjust an item in the suitcase from a horizontal position to an upright position so that everyone can see it clearly. At the same time, the projector on the auction table has already displayed these two items.
The image emerged with a clearer and larger picture.
Judging from the appearance, those two things are exactly two huge "ostrich eggs" made of some strange material. The entire "ostrich egg" shell has circles of alternating black and white spirals.
pattern, no one knew what these things were. At least Zhang Tie was completely confused when he looked at the two "ostrich eggs". He couldn't figure out what these two things were. They deserved such solemn attention from the auction house.
thing.
Among all the people, only the two officers from the representatives of the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire who were sitting in the private room upstairs changed their expressions when they saw the two "ostrich eggs", and then they each spoke to the general (red) next to them.
The great shepherd leader in robes lowered his head and said a few words.
"Everyone should have heard of these two things, especially in the recent period. During this war, the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire surrendered one and two such things in each other's cities respectively.
!" The old man on the stage said softly, and then the audience became quiet for a while, and then the situation exploded instantly.
"What? You mean these two are alchemy bombs? The only thermal weapons in the Black Iron Age!"
A voice shouted loudly, everyone was startled, even Zhang Tie's eyes widened.
"Yes, these two things are two bombs made by alchemists. They are the only thermal weapons in the Black Iron Age. They are also the last alchemical items in today's auction. Up to now, what the alchemists of the Sun God Dynasty can do
The most powerful alchemy bomb created has an explosive yield of 350 kilograms of tnt. The most powerful alchemical bomb that the alchemists of the Norman Empire can create has an explosive yield of 500 kilograms of tnt. The explosive yields of these two bombs are
, are equivalent to the explosion size of one ton of TNT..."
Having said this, the person in charge of the Sowers business group on the stage smiled bitterly and spread his hands, "Don't ask me what the explosive yield is, how many kilograms, what the TNT level means, I don't understand this either, this vocabulary,
It is a professional term used by alchemists to measure the power of alchemical bombs. This term comes from before the Cataclysm. It has very strict criteria for judgment. I am just following the script here. How powerful is the explosive equivalent of a meal of TNT? Before I take the stage
I also asked someone else, and what that person told me was that if such a bomb exploded at the auction house at this moment, then the entire auction house and the Sowers Hotel above the auction house, including everything here and in the hotel, would be affected.
Everyone will be destroyed by bombs!"
Hearing such words, everyone's hearts, including Zhang Tie's, trembled.
The person in charge of the Sowers Business Group on the auction stage looked around for a week. "The starting price for each of these two bombs is one gold coin. Bidding from two people can be accepted at the same time. Now everyone can bid..."
A gold coin? A terrifyingly powerful alchemical bomb?
Is this a joke? You may not be able to find a place to buy such a terrifying weapon for 100,000 gold coins, because all bombs are strategic weapons in the hands of the country and major forces, and it is almost impossible for anyone to sell them.
, not to mention that you can buy it with just one gold coin. The most terrifying and awe-inspiring place for an alchemist is this era. Only alchemists have such terrifying murder weapons that are almost out of this era.
Almost none of the people who were able to attend the auction were idiots. Almost instantly, everyone understood why they saw representatives of the Norman Empire and the Sun God Dynasty here today, and why such an alchemical bomb was
Two of them appeared at once?
"I'll give you a gold coin!"
"I'll give you a gold coin!"
Just when the entire auction house was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, two voices came from the two boxes upstairs. Apart from these two voices, no one in the auction house dared to speak at this time.
When the price was quoted again, even those people who were clamoring just now for missing out on alchemy items because they didn't have enough money were as quiet as stones, as if they didn't see the "huge bargain" in front of them at all.
"One gold coin, one gold coin. Two people have already bid. Is there any higher price? No, that's good. Deal!"
The auction hammer hit, making a sound that was clearer than ever. It was like a lonely applause after an actor's lonely performance on the theater stage.
The people in the box upstairs had already come down at this time. "Do we need to check something?" The red-robed shepherd of the Sun God Dynasty, who just looked indifferent and held the golden scepter, looked so dark at this time.
It was like a piece of coal. A careful person could even see that the fingers of the red-robed shepherd holding the golden scepter were so hard that the joints turned white.
"Okay!" The person in charge of the Sowers Merchant Group on the stage nodded, and the soldiers surrounding the auction stage made way for a gap.
An officer from the Sun God Palace walked over. The general from the Norman Empire also nodded to the officer next to him, and the officer from the Norman Empire also walked up.
In full view of everyone, the two officers who came up to the stage were each checking the contents of a silver suitcase. In less than half a minute, the two serious-looking officers were each looking at the red-robed chief shepherd of the Sun God Dynasty and the
The general from the Norman Empire nodded, and after each left a gold coin, he carefully put away the bomb and walked off the auction stage with the suitcase.
Representatives of the Heliopolis and the Norman Empire then left.
In the auction house, the eyes of all the guests were focused on the person in charge of the Sowers business group standing on the auction stage. At this time, even Zhang Tie understood that this auction was about stuffing
It is a prop used by the Lindor family to publicly convey a certain message and show strength to the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire.
What just happened in the auction house was not a simple auction, but a major event that could affect the situation in the Karur region and the course of the war between the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire. There are two key information points in this major event,
The first information point is that the Celindor family has obtained the support of a certain alchemist master. The second information point is that the alchemist master's ability is far away from the top alchemists in the two countries of the Norman Empire and the Sun God Dynasty.
Above the teacher.
Everyone is looking at the person on the auction stage, waiting for that person to say something. Even as a silent prop and a witness, everyone has the right to know something.
Sure enough, he lived up to expectations. Facing the expectant eyes of everyone, the person in charge of the Sowers Business Group finally revealed a piece of news.
"The Iron Gate Family will announce today that the next heir to the family patriarch is Alexia Serindore. The day before, Alexia Serindore, who was still studying in the Eastern Continent, has
Married to an alchemist master, everything in the Iron Gate family, including Karur City, will be under the protection of that alchemist master from today on. The alchemy items just auctioned at the auction are from that master.
A little gift from the master to the Iron Gate family..."
The entire auction house fell silent again.
After a long time, someone among the guests sighed quietly, "The war between the Sun God Dynasty and the Norman Empire surrounding Karur is almost over!"
…
At this moment, the voice in Zhang Tie's heart and the desire in his mind suddenly became extremely clear.
This is a dream, a dream that Zhang Tie desires to be for the first time in his life, a dream that makes Zhang Tie's blood boil just thinking about it.
The Zhang Tie in his dream has a much cooler ability than turning stone into gold.
One person can save a city...
One person can change a war...
One person can become the greatest support and glory of everyone around him...
…
The auction continued. In the subsequent auction, Zhang Tie's Ring of Vitality was finally auctioned off for 21,600 gold coins. This immediately made Zhang Tie's pocket bulge.
Just after Zhang Tie's ring was auctioned, a line of text appeared in Zhang Tie's mind.
——The space intelligence of the Black Iron Castle has been generated, and the management template of the Black Iron Castle has completed its first intelligent upgrade. The Lord and the Black Iron Castle have used the space gate to establish a cross-dimensional mental connection and interaction mode...
As the last sentence ended, Zhang Tie felt that his mental power in the sea of consciousness was shaken, and a large amount of mental power began to pour into the magical arch in his mind. At this moment, that magical arch was completely like
Like a water-absorbing sponge, it continuously absorbed his mental power. In less than a minute, there was only a thin trace of mental power left in Zhang Tie's mind, and he was almost completely absorbed.
Drain completely.
When Zhang Tie's mental power was almost completely exhausted, the magical arch shook slightly, and in the process, the color of the arch suddenly became green and full of vitality.
The process of rapidly absorbing mental power was not a comfortable thing for Zhang Tie. In just one minute, Zhang Tie had a splitting headache and a feeling of collapse, but in the end, before entering and exiting the black iron, Zhang Tie
After the color of the magical arch of the castle changed, Zhang Tie felt that his whole body seemed to have established a deeper and closer connection with the Black Iron Castle at this moment.
In the past, the Black Iron Castle felt like it was separated from me by a gate, in two completely different worlds. Only after I opened the door and entered could I feel what was inside. But at this moment, the gate seemed to have disappeared.
The entire Black Iron Castle, at the level of spiritual perception, seems to be integrated with itself...
