Chapter 124 - The Auction Begins, Assassin Attack!
Chapter 124: The Auction Begins, Assassin Attack!
When Belek and Mas arrived at the auction venue, they did not expect to be able to make it just in time for the auction to begin.
This saved the two of them the time to wait.
After Belek told the attendant his identity, the attendant brought the two of them into a VIP room.
After the bell rang, the auction officially began.
The first item to be displayed was the Emerald Green Robe that Mas had handed to Belek for sale.
The young and beautiful Asian auctioneer on the display platform introduced, “These ten Level 4 Emerald Green Robes were made by Master Mas…”
“The starting price is 50,000 gold coins!”
“I’ll offer 80,000!”
“Get lost. That’s Master Mas’ work. I’ll pay 90,000!” A big-bellied aristocrat stood up and shouted.
“Haha, do you think you’re worthy of these robes?! I’ll offer 400,000. I still believe in Master Mas’ work very much!” When Mas heard the shocking price, he looked at the person below the stage who offered a price. What came into his sight was a person dressed like a general.
“400,000. This gentleman has offered 400,000! Is there anyone else who wants to bid?
400,000 going once!
400,000 going twice!
......
400,000 going thrice, deal! ”
As the display platform with the Emerald Green Robe slowly descended, a new platform covered in silk slowly rose.
When the auctioneer removed the silk, it turned out to be an alchemy armor with a rare metal texture.
With the introduction of the auctioneer, everyone at the auction finally understood the origin of this alchemy armor.
It turned out that this silver alchemy armor was a Level 6 alchemy item that came from a legendary alchemist from the Beast Empire. This legendary alchemist had refined 10kg of mithril and an unknown rare alchemy material into this Level 6 alchemy armor.
This alchemy armor could withstand most magic attacks and physical attacks below the Epic stage. It could be said to be a life-saving divine weapon.
After hearing the introduction of the auctioneer, even Mas who was sitting in the private room was a little tempted, not to mention Belek who was beside him. If Mas had not refined the Seven Luminaries Battle Armor and the Water Magic Bead, he would definitely get this alchemy armor.
The beautiful Asian auctioneer raised the microphone and said, “Then, ladies and gentlemen, this alchemy armor from the Beast Empire, the starting price is 40 million!”
“42 million!”
“49 million!”
“60 million!”
? ? ?
“98 million!”
Hearing Belek shout out the high price of 98 million, Mas was stunned. He knew that this fatty was rich, but he did not expect that this fatty would be so willing to pay the price.
However, after thinking about it, it made sense. Belek, who was not an Advanced professional, could only use such external items to protect his safety. After all, Belek, who was wealthy, had not enjoyed enough.
“A gentleman offered 98 million high-grade items. Is there a gentleman or lady who would like to offer a higher price?”
“98 million going once!”
“98 million going twice!”
“98 million thrice, deal! Congratulations to this unknown gentleman for buying this Level 6 alchemy armor!”
? ? ?
As the display platform slowly descended, the beautiful Asian auctioneer picked up the microphone and deliberately kept them in suspense. With a mysterious look, he said, “The next item to be displayed is the highlight of our auction tonight. Ladies and gentlemen, are you ready?!”
Following the atmosphere created by the auctioneer, the atmosphere below the stage began to surge. After all, who did not love treasures?
As the atmosphere became more and more lively, all the lights in the venue suddenly dimmed.
Mas, who was at the side, sensed that something was wrong. As an advanced professional, he was especially familiar with the lethal aura of danger.
Looking at the flustered Belek beside him, Mas said solemnly, “President Belek, looks like we’re being targeted by some thieves…”
“It’s this room, right? Yes, Boss, this is what it says!”
“Then, do it! Remember, don’t make too much of a commotion. After all, this is the business of the adults!”
“Yes!”
After discussing, a six advanced professional in black outside the VIP room kicked open the door and stabbed at Mas with an alchemy weapon.
Seemingly having expected the actions of these thieves, Mas summoned two Legendary creatures to help.
Seeing the two behemoths in front of him, the leader of the men in black instructed his subordinates, “Go report. The actual situation doesn’t match the intelligence. We will kill forcefully. Go quickly!”
“Yes!”
“Oh, are you still considering sending the information out at this time? I say, aren’t you looking down on me too much?” Mas quickly rushed towards the leader of the men in black and used a fist to defeat the men in black.
The assassin in black who was preparing to retreat happened to see this scene. He quickly released an alchemical smoke bomb on the spot and retreated. Not long after, Mas, who was wearing the Seven Luminaries Battle Armor, and the two Legendary alchemical creatures killed all the assassins.
“How unlucky, President Belek, I’ll have to trouble you with these corpses,” Mas looked at Belek and said lightly.
Belek, who was at the side, said in shock, “Okay… okay, brother Dyson.”
When Mas focused on the auction again, he realized that the alchemical creatures he had created, the Frost Murloc and the Royal Naga, were being auctioned!
The beautiful auctioneer introduced to the crowd, “These two high-grade Level 5 alchemical creatures were personally refined by Master Mas. The combat ability of these two alchemical creatures is not inferior to an ordinary Level 6 professional!
Ladies and gentlemen, the starting price for these two alchemical creatures is 90 million! ”
“A Level 5 alchemical creature refined by Master Mas?!!! 100 million!”
“Fool, how could such a treasure be bought by a piece of trash like you? No one can fight with me for it. My father is the chief clerk. Whoever dares to fight with me will be crippled by me! 130 million!”
“Young man, don’t be rash. Don’t be so vicious with your words. Leave such a treasure to us old people. 160 million!” A white-haired old man below the platform reported this number indifferently. This person was the previous emperor, Harold!
“There’s no need to compete. I’ll offer 230 million!”
Upon hearing this exaggerated number, everyone subconsciously turned to look at the person who had spoken. When they saw the face of the person who had spoken, everyone’s anger was suppressed.
Without a doubt, the middle-aged man who had spoken was from the Wales Family, the second-largest noble family in the empire.
The speaker was the empire’s Chancellor of the Exchequer, Gilbert.
