Chapter 719 When the auction is in progress

The moment the box was brought up, Leo recognized the box at first sight. It was not gorgeous in appearance, but very simple. The surface was covered with a layer of rust due to oxidation and other reasons. The only thing worth noting was the box.

The lock on top.

His extraordinary vision can see layers of complex Turing roots on the lock, and the mental network can also feel the energy fluctuations transmitted from the lock. This energy fluctuation is not strong at first, but if

If you penetrate it, you can feel the turbulent waves under the calm appearance.

The manager of the black market in the Port of Set in the Kingdom of England mentioned that the black market once tried to use external force to destroy the box and take out the contents. At that time, he only mentioned that he was not able to destroy the box, but now it seems that it is not just the failure.

The destruction of the box is more likely due to the backlash of the box, causing some casualties, and more than once. Otherwise, the black market would not give up this thing and put it up for auction.

After the box was brought up, the auctioneer told the origin of the box and some of the problems encountered by the black market. He also mentioned a little bit that the black market encountered some minor accidents when using external force to destroy the box, causing some minor damage, and then

The conversation changed, and he kept hinting to the audience and the people in the box that this box might be a relic of the tower, and it contained a big secret about the tower, so it was protected with such a powerful force.

To ordinary people, Tower Wizard is just an ordinary name. They don’t know what Tower Wizard represents in the dark world. But to people in the dark world, Tower Wizard is almost like a god. Any piece of tower

The relics passed down are extraordinary.

But everyone who is interested in this box also has concerns, because there have been many tower relics in the past, and those relics do have things that can improve people's strength and obtain certain benefits, but more

The relics are the embodiment of disaster.

The recent high tower relic disasters that have occurred in the Kingdom of Maris are the disaster that occurred at Count Agatha's house half a year ago. The high tower relics purchased by Count Agatha were suddenly activated, instantly destroying Count Agatha's estate.

And the surrounding villages turned into a vicious land wrapped in countless black plants. Count Agatha and her family also all died there, and even the souls after death were bound in that vicious land and could not escape.

Many people passing by Earl Agatha's manor could hear the screams coming from the manor no matter day or night.

So when the auctioneer explained that the things in the box were blocked by powerful forces because they were extremely valuable, those in the dark world had another idea in their minds. In their opinion, the things in the box were probably because they were extremely dangerous.

Only then did the tower wizard use such great power to seal it into the box.

People with this idea obviously accounted for the majority, so when the auctioneer prompted that bids were available, the entire hall became quiet, and no one bid, which made the experienced auctioneer feel a little embarrassed.

Although Leo wanted that box very much, he did not rush to bid, but waited quietly. It was not until the auctioneer repeatedly urged that the auction was about to pass, that he pulled the switch next to it, turning on the quotation light and reporting the price.

A reserve price was offered.

The moment Leo made the quotation, everyone in the lobby looked at Leo in unison, as if they wanted to see who was so bold as to make a quotation for this dangerous thing.

However, Leo had already closed the curtains of the private room in advance and used rune traps to set up a interference force field, making it impossible for those who wanted to investigate Leo's identity.

However, Leo's quotation seemed to act as a primer. Many people who were also interested in this box but were a little worried also put down their worries a little and made quotations one after another. The scene gradually became lively again.

When others were bidding, Leo stopped bidding again and watched quietly.

"If you don't have enough funds on hand, I can..." Sylvia thought Leo didn't have enough money, so she said softly.

"No, I have sufficient funds, I'm just waiting for the opportunity." Leo smiled and patted Sylvia's arm, telling her to relax, and then returned his attention to the auction.

People in the lobby began to quote various prices one by one, gradually pushing the price to a small height. People who were interested in the box gradually gave up. In the end, only one person quoted a relatively high price.

At this time, the auctioneer confirmed the bid again and said that if no one else bids, the thing will belong to the young man.

At this moment, Leo made his second bid, and the price he gave was slightly higher than that person's.

Leo's bid also stimulated other people's interest in the auction again, and a new round of bidding started. However, the amount of bidding in this round was no longer spread widely like the previous round, but was close to each other.

Previous quote.

This round of bidding did not last too long and ended quickly. After the last person quoted a high price, no one was bidding again, and the auctioneer confirmed again.

At this time, Leo bid for the third time, and this time the price was also close to the previous price. However, after this quotation, no one followed the quotation, even those who were interested in this box did not bid again.

He made a quote, but glared towards the private room where Leo was.

"It seems that they all regard you as a black market person." Sylvia quickly understood Leo's intention, and leaned close to Leo and whispered: "I didn't expect you to be so cunning."

Leo smiled and said nothing.

What happened after that was as he expected, no one made any more bids, and the box belonged to him the moment the auctioneer dropped the hammer. The people who had participated in the auction were all looking at the box with gloating at the moment, as if they felt that this time it was a black market.

It was self-defeating and I smashed something into my own hands.

Leo didn't show any complacency, he just called the waiter guarding the door in, and then paid enough money to let the waiter bring the things over.

He had gotten what he wanted, and the money he paid was only half of what he expected. This made Leo feel a lot more comfortable, and he was also interested in looking at other auction items.

In the subsequent auction, Leo also made several bids, buying a bunch of jewelry to give to Sylvia, and also bought some psychic substances to supplement consumption.

When the ordinary auction items were coming to an end, the box that Leo bought was also brought over by the waiter and handed into his hands.

The moment he got the box, Leo's attention was no longer on the auction site. His eyes were completely attracted by the lock on the box.

After seeing the lock on the box, Leo knew where the Turing root that the wizard who arranged the black market knew came from. Obviously the Turing root stacked on these locks was the source.

Although the Turing root on the box lock is not the most complicated combination of Turing radicals that Leo has ever seen, the combination method of these Turing radicals is the first time that Leo has seen it, and this method has already been

Let these Turing radicals begin to transform into three-dimensional radicals. However, these Turing radicals still lack the key root link elements, which prevents these Turing radicals from being able to undergo further transformation.

"Are you going to unlock these locks here?" Sylvia couldn't help asking when she noticed that Leo was staring at the locks without blinking.

Hearing this, Leo came back from thinking about the Turing root, shook his head slightly, and said: "The Turing root on the lock is very complicated. It is a combination of the Turing root that has never been seen before.

Method, it will take a while to decipher the secrets, and it cannot be done in a short time."

Sylvia pointed to the outside of the box and said: "In this case, let's take a look at the next auction first! Those special items are going to be on the market."

Leo followed Sylvia's suggestion and sent the box directly to the storage space, and would study it slowly when he had time.

After turning his attention back to the auction, he discovered that the attendants of the vampire clan were asking the ordinary people sitting in the middle seats to leave. It was obvious that the last few special items were not available to ordinary people.

Although the ordinary people who participated in the auction were extremely curious about what those special items were, they did not dare to mess around in the venue of the vampires. They all stood up and left in a polite manner. The auction scene was extremely lively just now.

, it has become deserted at this moment, and the place is so empty that even speaking a little louder can produce echoes.

The auctioneer who hosted the auction before has gone down, and what came up was a very beautiful and enchanting Vampire woman. Although she seemed very weak from the outside, everyone who knew her knew that this Vampire woman was definitely not a good person.

stubble.

"Bloody Countess Natasha!" Sylvia directly revealed the other party's identity and emphasized: "She is a famous slut in Maris. She has slept in the beds of almost all the nobles in Maris.

Including women.”

Hearing Sylvia's disdainful words, Leo looked at her thoughtfully, causing her face to turn red and her head to the side.

Leo smiled, and then turned to look at the Vampire Baroness, but he was not looking at the appearance of the Vampire Baroness, but at her inner being.

After a while, Leo suddenly asked: "Can vampires also have faith?"

"Faith? There shouldn't be!" Sylvia hesitated, thought for a moment, and said: "I remember that the vampires don't seem to believe in other gods, even evil gods. They only believe in their ancestors, the earliest ones.

The vampire, that demigod vampire." As she said that, she looked at Leo in confusion and asked, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly ask such a weird question?"

Leo reminded: "Pull the cloth covering your eyes a little further and take a look at the baroness you are talking about."

Hearing this, Sylvia pulled the cloth over her eyes upward slightly, opened a hole, and looked towards the bloody baroness.

The moment she saw the Baroness, the beautiful Baroness in Sylvia's eyes immediately changed. Her body expanded rapidly, swelling into a huge flesh ball, and the flesh ball was surrounded by various thorn-like growths.

Tentacles, each tentacle has a mouth at the front that opens and closes to say something.

"Damn it!" After Sylvia saw the shape of the monster clearly, she immediately closed her eyes and pulled the cloth down again. At the same time, she couldn't help but wonder: "How could it be? How could she believe in the God of Wrong Words?

,Didn’t the God of Wrong Words fall?”

"The God of Artful Words?" After hearing Sylvia's words, Leo immediately recalled the relevant information in his mind, and confirmed: "The God of Artful Words you mentioned was the first Orthodox Church to disappear.

A god of faith?”

"Yes!" Sylvia nodded and said: "Back then, the Orthodox Church was indeed sure that the God of Arrogance had fallen, and the Church of the God of Argument was quickly disbanded. Both the clergy and believers were dispersed.

Other churches." As she spoke, Sylvia tried to lift the cloth and looked at the Vampire Baroness again. After confirming that she had read correctly, she couldn't help but wonder: "Why does the God of Wrong Words still exist?"

"Are you sure this is the God of Arrogance?" Leo frowned and said, "I remember that in the Orthodox Church's teachings, the God of Arrogance is a handsome young man. There is a huge difference between him and this extremely ugly monster.

Already."

"Don't speculate on God's things based on human common sense." Sylvia suddenly said to Leo in a serious tone: "On the first day I joined the Orthodox Church, the old knight who led me to join said this to me.

, just like a bird sees humans as monsters with teeth and claws, we see God in the same way, but for the adaptation of ordinary believers, the church creates a human-like statue for people to worship."

Leo no longer dwelled on the appearance of the god. He had seen Omega-level advanced life forms with even weirder shapes when approaching, and the appearance of the God of Wandering Words was obviously quite normal.

"A fallen god is now resurrected, and there is also a vampire believer?" Leo frowned and said, "Why does this seem strange?"

Sylvia also nodded in agreement. If she was still the judge of the Orthodox Church, she would definitely investigate this matter and spread the news about the resurrection of the God of Wrong Words. But now she is just a bystander. As long as the matter is not

She won't pay attention to these questions if they bother her.

While the two were talking, the venue had been tidied up again, and the baroness also stood in the auctioneer's position. She rang the bell twice, and then directly announced that the auction of special items in the second half had begun.

And he motioned to the attendant behind the stage to bring up the first auction item.

The first auction item was so large that it required the efforts of six vampires to lift it and move it to the center of the stage.

After placing the auction items down, the Bloody Baroness gestured to remove the cloth on the auction items to reveal the objects inside.

Everyone who saw this object exclaimed in exclamation, but only Leo was so shocked that he stood up from his chair. His abnormal behavior also attracted Sylvia's attention, which made her
