The 119th Auction
Early the next morning, Lao Xie got up to exercise. In an empty space specially arranged by himself, Lao Xie would practice hard here every morning. After punching for 2 hours in a row, Lao Xie went to eat. . After dinner, he happily took the car out. It turned out that today was the day when the Thunder Knife was being auctioned, so naturally he, the rightful owner, couldn't be there to join in the fun.
The Stephen family's auction house has its own venue, which is located in the bustling business district. In fact, it was originally very famous here, but business has begun to decline in recent years, and the auction house of the August family has stolen the limelight. So funds were tight, and even the decoration inside became outdated.
Now, in order to rely on the Thunder Knife to build a brand in one go, the manager has also worked hard. In addition to spending a lot of money on advertising, he even persuaded Fatty to make an additional investment and redecorate all the decorations inside. , made to be extremely luxurious, giving people a pleasing feeling when looking at it.
There were originally 32 VIP rooms in the venue, all of which were on the second floor. They could sit high and conduct auctions without revealing their identities. Such a good location is naturally the most popular, but unfortunately it has long been snatched away by a group of powerful people using various means. Even Lao Xie didn't want it. Originally, he planned to coerce and lure him, but the manager refused to agree and almost knelt down in front of Lao Xie. There was no way, Lao Xie could only sit in the 200 ordinary seats below.
At about 8 a.m., the auction officially started. More than 200 seats were occupied by various dignitaries. As for the single rooms, there was no single room left. Lao Xie didn't see the Elf Prince Arthas outside. Obviously, he must have a single room. Thinking that his master didn't even have a private room, but that pretty boy did, Lao Xie felt depressed and secretly scolded the manager here again.
Such a grand auction will naturally not only sell one Thunder Knife, it would simply be a waste of such a good opportunity. Of course, a shrewd manager would not make such a stupid mistake, so the manager also prepared some other good auction items as foreplay.
In order to create his own brand, the manager certainly would not use some junk goods to fill up his banknotes. The things he got this time also took a lot of effort, and the cheapest ones can be sold for several thousand gold coins. The most eye-catching among them are the two works of the old mage. One is his new work, the Shield Guardian, which is the one that Lao Xie saw last time. It was priced at a low price of 20,000 gold coins and was finally sold for 58,000.
And this is not the most expensive one. The old mage is obviously determined to win for his family's auction house this time, so much so that he actually brought out a monster. Although this is just a work he practiced 30 years ago and cannot be called a masterpiece, it still attracts everyone's attention. After all, the old mage has a good reputation. He is not called the grand master of puppet alchemy for nothing. Take this monster for example. There are only a few people on the mainland who are capable of making it, and among them, the old mage is the most accomplished. He makes the same gods and monsters to a higher level than others. After all, the old mage's craftsmanship has been passed down from generation to generation, so it is naturally much better than others trying to figure it out on their own.
Moreover, many materials required for things like gods and monsters cannot be bought even if you have money, and are very rare. Therefore, the number is pitiful. Anyone who owns a monster will treat it as a treasure, and there are not many opportunities to put it up for auction. Anyway, on the mainland, only one monster enters the market about every five years, which shows how precious it is. .
Anyway, after this thing came out, it caused a sensation. Although the base price of 50,000 yuan really scared a group of nobles who were not financially strong, the rich guys didn't think so at all. They all scrambled to be the first, shouting at the top of their lungs, for fear that others would **** it away, as if what he spent was not gold coins, but stones.
In the end, this monster was sold for a sky-high price of 97,000 gold coins. You know, its normal price is only fifty or sixty thousand, which shows how crazy these guys are.
Next, after a small climax, everyone finally came to the finale, the auction of the Thunder Knife.
This time, the manager personally acted as the auctioneer. When he came to the stage, he bowed excitedly to everyone, and then said excitedly: "First of all, thank you for coming from all corners of the mainland and traveling thousands of miles to support us. This is our great honor. We can repay you, Just to make your trip worthwhile!”
The manager's words caused a round of warm applause. After the applause disappeared, the manager said directly: "Thank you for your support. Okay, I think you are all impatient, so I won't talk nonsense. Now please, we The specially invited appraiser, the dwarf forging master, Mr. Pilitz, will show you this thunder knife, which is a legendary item!”
Afterwards, everyone applauded enthusiastically again to show their respect for the great casting master Pilitz.
Amidst the applause of the crowd, Pilitz walked up to the front desk holding a long package. He bowed slightly first to express his gratitude for everyone's applause, and then waited for everyone to calm down. He used a slightly hoarse accent and said slowly: "It's already the seventh day since I came here. During these seven days, I have been studying this knife, even during the welcome banquet of His Majesty the Emperor of the Griffin Kingdom. I didn’t even go, and I’m very sorry for that.” As he spoke, he leaned slightly in the direction of the second floor, apparently apologizing to the emperor for his rudeness.
The emperor's calm voice soon came from that direction, "Master, you are too polite, I don't dare to be a junior!"
"Haha!" Pilitz smiled slightly at the other side, and then went straight to the topic again: "Everyone, after seven days of research, I can only give you this evaluation with shame. This knife, with This is not the forging method of this continent, but rather the forging method spread in other worlds."
"Oh~" After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but sigh.
You know, there are space cracks in many places on this continent, and people from other worlds often come here. The most famous one is the Burning Legion among the three major natural disasters. These people are all visitors from other worlds. In addition to the Burning Legion, there have been many other alien races in history. These alien races are different from the mainland in appearance and other habits. They also occasionally brought some amazing equipment. So when people heard that the Thunder Knife was an alien thing, although they were surprised, they were not completely ignorant.
Pilitz then continued: "However, although the casting method of this knife is completely different from that of the mainland, the magic circle on its surface is definitely from this continent. Observing its subtle features, I really want to It’s the style of the Stephen family. Could it be that this sword was forged from another world, then wandered in this continent, and was blessed with a magic circle by the Lightning Saint?”
After hearing this, Lao Xie couldn't help but admire Pilitz. He was almost right. This knife was indeed forged by Lao Xie using the weapon refining method. It did not go through the process of hammering, so there are no forging lines on the blade body. Through this, Pilitz determined that Lao Xie's forging technique came from another country. Realm, that's right. In fact, this point is not too difficult, but the key is the second point. He can see that the magic circle has the characteristics of the Stephen family, so it will not be easy.
You must know that although the magic circle is complicated, it requires very high precision. It must be drawn to meet the standards. It is like a kind of writing that must be seen and recognized by others. Therefore, there are very few changes in the magic circle. The same magic circle drawn by ten mages is almost exactly the same, with only very small differences. Those who can see this difference and deduce the origin of the magic circle from this are really It's so rare that even professional mages don't have this ability. However, as a soldier, Pilitz could recognize it, which was naturally not easy.
When Pilitz said this, he also looked at the manager with doubtful eyes, obviously wanting to get an answer from him. Others also looked at it, wanting to get an answer.
The manager smiled helplessly and said: "I'm sorry, I can't tell you the origin of this knife. This is a rule!"
"That's it, that's a pity!" Pilitz said with a hint of disappointment.
Others were also a little depressed. At this moment, a guy who couldn't help but asked anxiously: "Master, you'd better tell me quickly whether this Thunder Knife is a legendary item. ?"
"Okay!" Pilitz nodded, then slowly opened the package in his hand and said with admiration: "This knife is the most perfect weapon I have ever seen. With a good master, it can definitely become a legendary item, and even better, it’s not impossible! ”
"Ah! Huh?" After hearing Pilitz's words, everyone exclaimed excitedly at first, but when they saw the pitiful appearance of the Thunder Knife covered with rust, they couldn't help but utter doubts.
"Master, did you pick up the wrong knife?" A guy couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This, this rusty piece of junk, can it be considered a perfect level legendary item?"
"What do you know?" When Pilitz heard someone questioning it, he left and said disdainfully: "Although the appearance of this knife is not good-looking, it is one of my favorite things!"
