Reincarnated With the Book of Knowledge Chapter 186: Start with the fruit
"It turned out to be this adult."
The venue was as silent as death. Several wealthy businessmen and nobles who were desperate for fine wine and wanted to increase their prices silently shrank back, not because they didn't have enough money, but because they were afraid that they would not be able to walk out of the auction room alive.
This is the place of the Golden Emperor. Most pirates and even supernovas don't necessarily dare to make trouble here and will be punished, but Wang Xia Qiwuhai said otherwise.
Especially Rhodes, the mighty Dragon Slayer Swordsman.
And seeing this scene, the host on the stage could only maintain an embarrassed and polite smile, holding a small hammer, knocking it was not, not knocking it was not.
If you knock it down, you will lose blood. Of course, the price of rainbow wine itself will not break the sky, but it is expensive. The wine capital from the new world, under the atmosphere of the auction, can at least fetch 4.5 billion or even more. high price.
If you don't knock, it will be even worse...
"200 million Bailey, deal!"
The host wanted to cry without tears and dropped the hammer, but she was worthy of being a professional. She quickly packed up and said aloud:
"The next thing is the climax of this auction, and it's also the finale. I'm afraid many people are coming for it."
During the conversation, two staff members walked onto the high platform with an exquisite box.
"This is the finale of this auction, a superhuman devil fruit."
After speaking, the host opened the box, revealing a strange fruit with a special pattern engraved on it.
"According to the confirmation of professionals, this is in all likelihood a superhuman-type hard city fruit, a very powerful space-type devil fruit."
"This type of devil fruit is rare in the world, and its rarity is comparable to that of a natural devil fruit. With a little development, its strength can be improved to a higher level."
"So, we decided to set the auction price of this fruit at 200 million Bailey!"
After the host finished speaking, everyone immediately cheered and everyone was very excited.
Devil Fruits will always be the most popular existence in the pirate world, and the applicability is extremely strong, especially the Devil Fruit with certain ability.
"Gentlemen and Ladies, Tonight's Finale Lot Starts Now!"
As soon as the voice fell, there was a sound of bidding from below.
"210 million Baileys!"
"230 million Baileys!"
"250 million Baileys!"
There were constant calls from the audience, one after another, but the rate of increase was not fast. Everyone was still watching their opponents and didn't want to be the first bird.
"Three hundred million!"
Rod raised his hand and made up the whole thing directly.
After Rhodes bid, the warm atmosphere in the auction room was like pouring cold water.
Most people just shrank back.
A small number of people struggled for a while and then shrank back.
But this is a special devil fruit after all. It is very rare. There are still many people who are jealous and unwilling to do so, but they dare not take the lead, because that will inevitably usher in a thunderous blow from the Dragon Slaying Swordsman.
“…”
Rod didn't say anything, his indifferent eyes swept across the audience.
This look is unremarkable, but in the eyes of everyone who has been swept, it seems to feel the top of Mount Tai and the overturning of the ocean, almost suffocating.
This is a kind of overlord skills that Rhodes learned from Nine Snake Island.
It is the favorite trick of the Nine Snake Island Emperor. To put it simply, it is to encapsulate the overlord's color in his eyes, and surrender to everything he sees.
And in the corner of the auction house.
"It's amazing, this kid is growing up too fast."
Pluto Rayleigh took a sip of wine, and a look of surprise appeared on his slightly vicissitudes face.
The last time he saw Rhodes, he had a premonition that this young man would be famous all over the world, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
"Overlord, tsk tsk..."
Reilly poured the jug, only to find that a drop was gone, and he couldn't help his face.
Misfortunes do not come singly.
Finding his pockets, he realized that he had lost all his money in gambling yesterday.
Are you going to sell yourself again?
Raleigh is scratching his head a little, annoyed, because most auctions in Chambord are almost sold out.
And on the high stage at this time, the host also had a sore face. What could have been called a sensational auction was abruptly made by Rhodes, and she lost hundreds of millions of income for nothing. She was very unwilling, and some hesitate.
Forget the rainbow wine before, but this space-type devil fruit can be auctioned for more than 700 million or 800 million yuan!
Seeing the host's hesitation, Rhodes smiled, a little happy.
He wished that this auction would not be sold, and he would save a lot of Bailey by just grabbing it!
The Golden Emperor is so rich, he won't rob anyone.
As soon as Rod moved, he heard the host's vibrato that almost burst into tears.
"Sold, 300 million Bailey, congratulations to Mr. Rhodes for getting this rare devil fruit, and today's auction is over."
As soon as the words fell, the auction began to close.
The guests were stunned for a while, which was too neat.
Rod was also speechless.
It seems that these auctioneers are very familiar with the character of the sea powerhouse and know what will happen if they hesitate.
Skilled appearance, obviously often encountered this situation.
The auction ended, and the guests naturally dispersed.
If the items are photographed, they will go to the backstage to pick up the goods under the guidance of the staff.
When Rhodes arrived backstage, he found that the young hostess had been waiting for him for a long time.
"Hello, Mr. Rhodes, I'm Nicole, these are the two items you photographed. According to the rules, we will sell these two items to you at a 50% discount."
Rod is a little puzzled, "rules?"
"In the hand of Lord Golden Emperor, there is a list of strong people. The big people above can enjoy a 50% discount on the purchase of goods in our industry, and you are the latest addition."
The young woman threw a wink and said softly.
"It's very insightful."
Rod is a little surprised.
What is the most fearful thing for businessmen in the world of pirates, that is, a strong, master who combines great power in one.
Because these people don't agree with each other, they may start a robbery. No matter how big the forces behind you are, after the robbery and running to the sea, no one can do anything.
And the Golden Emperor set up such a discount close to the base price, so that these sea powerhouses can be handed over. Coupled with the power of the Golden Emperor himself, it can greatly ensure the safety of its industries.
Don't reach out and don't hit the smiling face. The opposite is so good at being a man. Rhode couldn't find it, so he had to pay for the goods according to the rules.
"Now it's time to prepare the storage gear."
After leaving the auction, Rhodes walked on the street and muttered a little excitedly.
He's been craving this for a long time!
But at this moment, Rhodes suddenly frowned, feeling that someone was following him.
But this person is very strong~IndoMTL.com~ Even with Rhodes's two-point perception bonus, he can't catch the person's position, and can only vaguely perceive a little breath.
But Rhodes doesn't have to detect it accurately.
Because at this point in time, there is almost only one existence on the Chambord Archipelago who can stably control him in terms of arrogance and domineering, and will find him.
"Mr. Reilly, I don't know what you, the legendary big man, is doing with me."
After turning into a small alley, Rhodes turned around lightly and looked back calmly.
"God, the boy is very sensitive."
As expected, an old man with beard and hair walked in from the corner and said with a smile:
"The old man didn't follow you specifically, he just wanted to beg for a drink."
He looked at Rhodes' backpack with bright eyes, looking like an alcoholic who was almost drooling.
