Set up a funeral service team in a foreign land
Chapter 16: Provoking Hatred at the Auction
The vampire youth, wearing a black and red windbreaker, walked by with a calm and indifferent expression. Hearing these words, he seemed to be thinking about something. He suddenly thought of Ye Qiu Sheng.
Daniel looked at the dragon woman who was slowly stopping her smile and shrugged: "Humans are always weird. What do you think, Regina?"
The dragon woman rolled her eyes: "Don't call my name, I'm afraid I can't help but beat you here, and it will be difficult to explain to Yueyue then." She has always had a big prejudice against this guy's appearance. It's okay to be good-looking, but why should a man be so good-looking, huh.
Daniel twitched his lips. Could this guy really have his eyes on the pearl of the mermaid tribe? He felt that the two top tribes might fight, and it would not just be one or two that would suffer.
Regina looked at Xi Sui'an's back, crossed her arms and stepped onto the stairs casually: "Humans, ha. Many humans are arrogant and conceited, but--" She lowered her voice slightly.
“Humanity does have limitless possibilities.”
The wooden hall is low-key yet luxurious, illuminated by the clear blue light, and does not appear dim at all, as if the bright sunshine is shining into the shallow sea.
Xi Sui'an saw jellyfish swimming in the air, opening and closing their bodies like they were breathing. The scattered compartments were dotted with corals and water plants of various colors, which was gorgeous and dreamy.
She went to the location of the invitation letter and heard many murmurs of admiration along the way.
"I'm tired of saying 'really rich'." She sat in her cubicle, looking around the auction hall and sighing at the system.
What can the system say? It encourages dryly: "Host, we will definitely make money if we work hard!"
Her compartment is not big, with a table and a chair. It looks ordinary, but it is covered with intricately carved patterns. If you look closely, you will find that these patterns contain special textures.
"This pattern is a bit strange? What is it?"
"This?" The system didn't care. "It's just a soundproofing array to prevent the neighbors from hearing your voice."
Her eyes lit up. It would be a waste not to pick up the free knowledge. Although she had a small encyclopedia of the system, the knowledge she could truly master was hers, and the system did not count!
So the aliens engaged in ineffective social interaction, and Xi Sui'an sat there and carefully studied the soundproofing array.
She looked at every line of the magic circle and muttered to herself: "The direction and depth of the lines are all different..."
The system kindly said: "There are many conditions for the operation of the magic circle, the arrangement of the array eye, the materials used to outline the magic circle, and the direction and depth of each stroke are different. In short, it is indeed very complicated and profound knowledge.
Even if I tell you everything now, you still won’t be able to learn it, so you still have to go to Damocles and study hard.”
It's not a cold shower.
Xi Sui'an's huge spiritual power made her memory excellent. She memorized the appearance of the magic circle deeply in her mind and turned her head away from paying attention to it.
Her focus is on this auction.
The circular hall was divided into compartments surrounding a slightly raised platform in the middle. She squinted her eyes and looked at the many forces that came. She should be able to understand the general division of forces in the foreign land through this auction.
Behind the singer Daniel is the sacred cemetery.
Behind the red-haired woman with golden vertical pupils is the dragon clan.
Talos, the magician of the Rose Cross Society, left, and was replaced by a girl wearing a popular black robe and a mask. The girl seemed a little nervous.
When Daniel saw that it was not Talos, he snorted coldly and turned his head away.
Her eyes suddenly caught sight of a young man sitting across from her. He had no racial characteristics, black hair, black eyes, and natural facial features, and looked like a human.
He sat elegantly and calmly, wearing a simple and neat white shirt. He looked like a well-mannered literary young man, which did not seem to fit in with the auction in front of him.
He seemed to sense something and looked back, his eyes sharp for a moment. But when he saw it was her, he was slightly startled, then nodded slightly in a very friendly manner with a gentle smile.
Before she had time to think too much, she heard the sound of a small hammer hitting the table. The sound was not loud, but it instantly spread throughout the auction hall, as if it was ringing in everyone's ears.
She looked up and saw Yueyue on the raised platform, wearing a long moon-colored skirt. The tiered skirt was dotted with pearls, which perfectly highlighted her beautiful figure. Her hands were strung with beads of strange colors, but she couldn't tell what color they were.
A gentle and sincere smile appeared on Yueliang's delicate face, and she bowed with her skirt in hand: "Hello, friends who have taken the trouble to come here, I am Yueliang from the mermaid tribe."
Her voice echoed in the hall, and the clear and pleasant voice instantly suppressed all the noise.
“I am glad that we meet here. Please allow me to give a brief introduction to this lot before the auction.”
The moon calmly narrated: "A few months ago, we, the mermaids, discovered a relic on the seabed. According to our investigation, it is very old and may be a relic from the Age of the Fallen Gods.
We opened the ruins and found many treasures of the sea tribe, which are the theme of this auction."
She clapped her hands gracefully. "Okay, let's bring up the first item - the sleeping giant clam. This item can lead a person into a dream, and without any external interference, he will fall into death without knowing it. It can also be used as medicine, and the effect depends on how the pharmacist mixes it. The starting price is 10,000 crystal coins."
"Twenty thousand." Regina from the Dragon Clan was the first to quote.
"Giving it to you dragons would be a waste of natural resources." A girl with butterfly wings on her back held up the card and raised her chin slightly, "Give it to our fairy tribe, fifty thousand!"
Regina rolled her eyes, but since it was the first game, there was no need to rush. She raised the price lazily, "One hundred thousand."
Xi Sui'an couldn't help laughing. Was this dragon woman really serving as a proxy for the moon?
On the stage, Yueliang gritted her teeth and maintained her elegant posture.
"Fifteen thousand!" The fairy girl raised the sign unhappily.
"Anyone else wants to raise the price? Fifteen thousand once! Fifteen thousand twice!" Yueliang looked around the quiet hall and knew that many people came for the last item, so he hammered down: "Fifteen thousand three times! Congratulations to this fairy lady."
"The next lot - Mirage Pearl."
"This item can construct large-scale illusions, and can even project images based on one's own inner thoughts and changes." In the tray on the table, there was a silver bead the size of a fist. Looking closely, the surface was covered with a layer of illusory light.
"The starting price is ten thousand crystal coins." Yueliang said with a smile.
"This little thing is quite interesting." Xi Sui'an touched his chin. It was a large illusion that could also change.
"Fifty thousand crystal coins." The young man in the white shirt raised his hand and smiled slightly. "It would be great to use this mirage pearl for the exams of the students of Damocles Academy. What do you think?"
The corner of the mouth of someone who graduated from Damocles twitched, and after hesitating for a long time, he withdrew his hand and thought, forget it.
For example, Søren Argerich, who was about to enter the school, couldn't help but retort: "Why, you won't let us take pictures after just one sentence?"
"Hey, why do you say that? Think about it, if this mirage pearl is placed in our Damocles, can the kids of all races enjoy it?" Li Qing shrugged and smiled brightly, "Doesn't it mean that everyone can use it? It's good for you, it's good for me, and it's good for everyone."
It seems... there is some truth to it... The other group of aliens thought about it and slowly withdrew their hands.
There is also a group of people who are not interested at all.
Yueliang on the stage almost couldn't hold back her expression: "Anyone else wants to bid?" The hall was silent.
"Fifty thousand once, fifty thousand twice... fifty thousand, three times!" Yueliang almost gritted her teeth secretly. The Mirage Pearl with an estimated value of three hundred thousand was bought by this guy for only fifty thousand. She had never bid so low a price before!
Should she also thank the other party for not bidding it at the reserve price of 10,000?
"Congratulations, Mr. Li Qing, the director of the External Relations Department of Damocles Academy!" Yueliang gritted her teeth, trying hard not to go down and beat him up, and took a deep breath.
Xi Sui'an looked at this development and almost laughed out loud while covering her mouth: "It's actually someone from Damocles, the director of the External Relations Department, Li Qing..." She shook her head. This guy might have offended Yueliang to death by taking advantage of her.
She looked at the young man in the white shirt again and asked the system, "What does Damocles' External Relations Department do?"
The system said silently: "It is for external activities, communicating with various races, soliciting sponsorship, organizing activities, and expanding influence. Anyway, it is similar to the responsibilities of the External Relations Department of the Student Union in the human world."
Looking at the man in the white shirt with a gentle smile, but a fair face and a black heart, I couldn't help but look at the moon again. They really are of the same kind.
However, such external communication still arouses hatred. Thinking that she will soon become a member of Damocles...
Xi Sui'an was silent.
