Having a powerful lord as a father figure, what's wrong with just wanting to draw cards?

Chapter 82, Section 81: Auction Wholesale Market

This flag originated from a small country in the outer borders, which ultimately destroyed itself in pursuit of the ultimate military power.

In that battle, their homeland won, but just as they were about to press their advantage, the curse struck, and the entire army instantly perished on the plains, directly leading to the kingdom's destruction.

That plain is now the Wilderness of the Dead, a paradise for the dead and wronged souls.

Later generations found this flag on a plain full of graves and eventually came to this place.

"This thing... properly adding buffs has become a side effect; using it as a self-destructing mini-truck is the right way to use it."

Domi immediately figured out the correct use of this 'national flag of annihilation'.

People aren't really interested in buying it; they're more interested in watching it become a joke.

After all, nobody wants to be associated with something that's cursed.

However, even though it was something that would bring bad luck to anyone who bought it, a buyer in a regular seat still made a move and bid for it for 10,000 yuan more than the reserve price, and then left the scene.

Logically, such a dangerous cursed item should be sealed away, but since the object it curses can become immune to the curse as long as its value exceeds a certain standard, it has no effect on high-level mages.

However, that army group happened to be a regular melee army of ordinary people, which is why none of them survived. If there had been a mage among them, he might have been the sole survivor.

It's dangerous, but not very dangerous.

In an era where human life is treated like dirt, no one will turn down money, even if the cost is the lives of countless ordinary people.

The little incident involving the military flag passed just like that.

The auctioneer continued to sell the remaining antique items one by one. At an auction of this scale, not a single item went unsold, demonstrating extremely high efficiency and precisely targeting every wealthy and discerning client.

"Now we come to the important part of this auction, the theme of which is - magical items or props! Please take a look."

"The first item is the Desert Wolf, a greatsword from the Orc continent that can summon sandstorms! Legend has it that it was once the weapon of a legendary Orc hero who used it to defeat countless monsters! It is a heavy weapon that is very suitable for adventurers."

"Starting bid - 600,000 for the Golden Dragon, each bid increment no less than 10,000..."

"The black blindfold of the fire-guarding girl comes from the far north, used to glimpse the direction of the flames of world civilization. Starting bid: 200,000, with each bid increment no less than 10,000..."

"Darkmoon Slime Gel Amulet: Wearing this amulet allows you to harness the power of Darkmoon Slime, transforming the highly malleable gel within into any shape you desire."

The gel has a moderate hardness and toughness, and even when molded into a weapon, it has considerable performance. Most importantly, it will not completely break. It can be repaired by using gel that can be continuously regenerated in the amulet, so it can continue to be used.

One important point to note is that this amulet only supports Rebirth Gel made from Shadow magic.

"Starting bid - 400,000, minimum increment of 10,000..."

Domi: "Five hundred thousand, bro. If anyone else makes an offer, we'll fight them off. I absolutely need this!"

Rosa asked, puzzled, "Where are you going, brother? You seem to be in such a hurry."

"I feel it! I need to use the restroom!"

Before leaving, I heard the news that I had successfully bid for the amulet, and even standing in the hallway, I could still faintly hear the auctioneer's voice:

"The Sulfur Fire Fruit is a top-tier natural treasure. It can greatly enhance the purity of a fire mage's flames and change the flames released in the future to sulfur volcanic fire, making them significantly more powerful. It is predicted that the overall power will be increased by about 40%."

Starting bid: 800,000…

Upon hearing this, Edward went berserk, raising the starting bid to one million, regardless of the fact that it was only eight hundred thousand!

"One million, take it!"

The sound was so loud that I almost fell over.

"It seems I was right to go out earlier..."

In the blink of an eye, he ran to the next private room. Osmond wouldn't come looking for him for half an hour, because he already knew about it.

301 private rooms.

As soon as I went in, I saw Morey and May still standing there.

Domi rubbed his ears and chuckled, "Why not sit down when there's a chair?"

"Since you haven't arrived yet, sir, we won't sit down," Morey and May said after bowing.

"Alright, alright, sit down. Standing is tiring."

Although Domi was a little dissatisfied, he was actually satisfied. It seemed that Morey and May had not forgotten who gave them everything.

"If there's anything you want to film next, just say so. Don't be coy, and I'll film it."

Morey gave May a look that said, "See, I told you so."

If he hadn't given Mei a heads-up beforehand, this girl, who was neither young nor old, definitely wouldn't have said a word until the end.

But given his current state, asking for just one thing at most is probably the best he can ask for...

The first two items sold quickly due to their good effects, but the next few items were what Domi needed to focus on.

The Night Slayer, a high-performance dagger whose inherent ability is temporary invisibility, was sold for 400,000!

Use it as a secondary weapon.

He also took pictures of the medium-sized purple-gold armor and the long spear 'Dragon Fang', which were also part of the equipment, and gave them to May and Morey respectively.

The purple-gold armor has been modified to fit Mei's body perfectly, making it far superior to the original heavy armor, which was heavy, ill-fitting, and had weak defensive capabilities.

Morey himself has advanced ice-type talent. Although Dragon Fang is called Dragon Fang, the material used is the fang of the wolf king of the high mountain snowfield, which is also ice-type. The same type has better compatibility and the power is even higher.

If the two form a team and have some combat experience, they can still handle someone like Tuso, who is a small Karami, by simply relying on their equipment advantage.

In addition, there is the essential medium for necromancers to summon undead minions—ashes.

This time, three sets of ashes were displayed at once:

The Dark Night Manor Shieldbearer (Tower Shield), Dark Night Manor Assassin, and Dark Night Manor Shield Swordsman combine the roles of front-line fighter, assassin, and warrior into one package, making them a perfect bundle for sale.

It is said that the three of them together can also perform group combat techniques, and they even demonstrated it once on site.

After the combat skill is released, the three black-armored warriors, who look quite impressive, will receive a buff that increases all their attributes by 10%, as well as a powerful boost to their impact resistance of 60%.

In other words, with this 60% impact resistance, if you stand anywhere and the shield-wielder sets up a large tower shield, that place will be like a stubborn little rock in a turbulent river. As long as the difference isn't too great, it's impossible for it to be washed away!

These three ashes bundles are both good-looking and powerful, making them an essential tool for necromancers to go on outings, commit murder and arson!

Domi once again spent a huge sum of money to acquire it.

[Spend lavishly at the auction to achieve the hidden villain role achievement – ​​the landlord's foolish son, villain value +10]

If you encounter an auction house scene in other novels, the protagonist might sell all the wealth they've gained through adventures, and at most, they could only buy one or two items.

But when you get to Domi, the auction isn't called an auction house anymore, it's more like a wholesale market. People come here to buy goods, and they even give you a free 1000-pull gacha!

The landlord's foolish son—it's a bad reputation, but who would turn down money and villainous status?

Chapter 83, Section 82: Prosperity Remains

Soon, the last magical side item was brought out.

Preserved in a glass goblet, it emits a faint blue light, which dyes the four walls a pale blue color.

When the image was brought to my face, I took a closer look and realized it was actually a human finger bone!

It's clearly bone, yet it exudes such dreamlike colors and is crystal clear; someone who didn't know better might mistake it for a glass artwork.

But it is a genuine magical prop, and the fact that it was brought out last shows that it has quite a history.

"An unknown, azure finger bone contains a powerful energy, strong enough to dissolve anything that touches it, including magic. Even professional appraisers cannot determine its origin and function, but we believe it will play its greatest role in the right hands, which is why it came here."

Others might not know what this thing is for, but how could Domi not know?

The aura above was exactly the same as the initial 'Spirit Devouring Energy' he had brewed. Although it was slightly different now, it came from the same source.

This is the finger bone of a senior Soul Eater!

Whether it's useful or not, we must get it!

"Starting price: 600,000; minimum increment: 10,000."

"Morey, write 700,000."

……

"Write another one, eight hundred thousand."

……

"Write another one, a million more. I'm definitely taking this."

In the end, the other party could not compete with Domi's wealth and gave up the finger bone, which ended up in Domi's pocket.

Morey and May's combined gear only amounted to 600,000, while Domi was willing to spend a million for a finger whose purpose they had no idea what. Now they realized what it meant to be outrageously wealthy; they'd really broadened their horizons...

That was the end of that. After a short break, the final segment began. Domi took the opportunity to return to 304 VIP room and told Morey and May that they could leave whenever they wanted and not to worry about him.

There aren't many items that can be the closing piece at an auction of this caliber; there are only three, one of which is provided by the auction house itself.

Domi wasn't very interested. After all, this level of competition was beyond his reach. Only the heads of powerful families like Carlos and royalty had the right to compete on stage. They were just there for the fun of it, simply for the novelty.

The first item was a friendly offering—the blood of the ancient White Dragon Emperor.

Ancient dragons are like kings among dragons, and there are only a handful of them. Obtaining their blood is extremely difficult, and it must have been very painful for Bloomfield to produce such a small bottle.

Actually, that's not the case. Domi recognized it at a glance. Didn't he see this bottle of blood when he was a baby?

You're bringing such a precious thing to him for his first birthday celebration? Aren't you afraid he'll smash it with a dagger?

It's definitely a gimmick Carlos used to scam more money!

Sure enough, those who play with capital have dirty minds.

However, this gimmick still fooled most people, who bid enthusiastically and risked their lives, ultimately fetching a sky-high price of 90 million for the golden dragon! It was won by the Lionheart Empire royal family.

Ninety million! With no middlemen taking a cut, it all goes into their own pockets in the end!

Just thinking about it makes me dizzy.

Actually, if the buyer hadn't been royalty, no one would have dared to bid any higher, and the price could have been even higher...

However, Dragon Blood was just the beginning.
