Pirate Journalist

Chapter 24

Murphy returned to his seat and continued to watch the auction on stage.

Under the request of St. Charmarco, every auction item passed quickly, and in a short while, the finale of the auction came.

"The long-awaited, exciting moment is coming! The finale, I believe everyone already knows what it is!! Then! Open your eyes wide and take a good look at this rare figure!"

The host doesn't need to explain too much, most people already know what it is, they have read the list a long time ago, and even came here for it.

The staff directly pulled the opening curtain, and the hot atmosphere froze for a few seconds. Then, the whole scene exploded and cheered even more enthusiastically.

"That's a mermaid, it's the first time I've seen it!"

"It's so beautiful, my heart almost melts!"

"Even if I lose my fortune, I still have to photograph her!"

On the stage, in the giant fish tank filled with water, a moving figure was leaning on the glass, under the sky blue wavy hair, the lovely big eyes looked at the audience with fear, a fish tail was dangling in the water, Evoke a seductive line.

That collar is a bit of an eyesore... well, so are the two shells...

It was the first time for Murphy to see a mermaid, and he was somewhat interested. This race is basically born beautiful, and it is difficult to show any embarrassing image before getting old.

"Okay, I believe everyone can't wait any longer. Without further ado, let's start the auction directly. The reserve price is 7000 million Baileys!"

The host waved his hand, and immediately there were many bidding cards underneath, dazzling.

7000 million Pele is not a small amount, but here are either aristocrats or rich people, it is still affordable to grit your teeth.

"Haha, it seems that everyone can't wait, let me see, this gentleman's 1 million Pele is currently the highest in the field..." Before the host finished speaking, the price changed.

Even the bidding cards were ignored, and some people couldn't wait to call out a higher price.

"1 million Baileys!"

"1 million Baileys!"

"1 million Baileys!"

Rubbing his chin with his index finger, Murphy sat under the stage and watched this crazy scene. These people probably never imagined that when they circled around this mermaid, the world had changed dramatically.

But these are small characters. Murphy looked directly at the Saint Charmarco who hadn't made any bids. It is estimated that only one bid would end the auction.

Sure enough, after a while, St. Charmarco showed a dull expression, and quoted a price that shocked everyone: "5 million Baileys."

Everyone quieted down and looked at the Tianlongren with complicated eyes.

Murphy was not surprised at all. There was a similar scene in his memory, and Tianlong people were all of that kind of virtue.

"I thought it was fun for you civilians to fight back and forth, but I'm tired of watching it! It's so boring!"

Saint Charmarco sucked his hatred indifferently, but everyone knew that no one dared to talk back to him, let alone resist him.

"Brother Charmarco can't wait, otherwise we can see more about how these lowly commoners fight for each other, hehehe!" Etilia Palace said softly, covering her mouth.

In the quiet venue, the mocking voice was clearly visible, but everyone remained silent as if they hadn't heard it.

"Is there anything higher than 5 million Baileys?" the host asked on stage, but no one responded.

"Then, congratulations to Lord Charmarco for picking up a mermaid!"

"Customers who have successfully auctioned the goods, please come to the backstage to collect the goods. This auction has come to a successful conclusion, thank you everyone! Welcome to come again on today next month!" The host made the final summary.

Everyone in the audience slowly left, and Murphy came backstage.

The backstage space is not comparable to that of the front desk, and it is also very spacious. A group of people who have photographed goods gather in this place to receive their own items or slaves.

"I'm here to pick up the item, number 13, the left text of Hongxue."

"Okay sir, it's confirmed, it's yours."

After getting Hongxue's left text from the staff, Murphy cut a hole on the table with a swipe.

Really sharp!

He opened [Enhancement] on the spot, looked at the interface, and there were six enhancement options.

In addition to the four that came with the system at the beginning, there are also [Domineering Enhancement] and [Weapon Control].

[Arrogance Enhancement] is added after successfully exchanging primary arrogance last time.

And [Weapon Control] obviously just appeared just now. After clicking it, all kinds of weapons will appear in the list, but for the time being, only Daoshu is bright, and the others are gray.

[Do you want to consume 1000 points to exchange for elementary knife skills enhancement? 】

【Yes】.

He doesn't care much about the 1000 points, it can be recovered in a day, but the points in his hand are not enough for 10000 points for the time being, otherwise he will directly strengthen it to the intermediate level.

With a little more skill and insight in the sword technique in his mind, he played a trick with the sword, and then put the short knife in his waist.

When Murphy was about to leave, he suddenly noticed that the eyes of everyone in the field were focused on the next door to him.

His sight also moved over, and it turned out that two Tianlong people were handing over to the staff in his cubicle.

"Lord Charmarco, the mermaid's name is Shelley, this is the key around her neck, please keep it safe."

The staff member held the key in both hands and handed it to St. Charmarco with a bow.

St. Charmarco took out a key chain from his body, then reached out to take Shelley's key, and put it on it as well.

Another staff member was dragging Shelley over. At this time, Shelley was no longer submerged in the water. There was a ball of air bubbles around her waist, which made her float in the air and facilitated her movement on the ground. Otherwise, the unsplit mermaid cannot move easily on the ground.

Shelley was extremely uncooperative, twisting left and right all the way, resisting non-stop until a gunshot was fired.

Saint Charmarco showed impatience on his face, and was smoking with a gun in his hand. The bullet didn't hit anyone, but it really shocked everyone at the scene.

"Are you disobeying me? Come on!" St. Charmarco urged.

After the gunshots, Xue Lan finally did not continue to struggle. The staff pulled her over and handed one end of the chain to St. Charmarco, while the other end of the chain was around Shelley's neck.

There was a look of despair on her face, she seemed to know the virtues of the Tianlong people, so she could naturally imagine what would happen to her in the future.

"Go back, I can't wait." St. Charmarco said to Itilia Palace.

"Brother Charmarco has gained a lot of money, but I didn't fancy the one today, which is a pity!" Itilia Palace said disappointedly.

The two were talking while preparing to head for the door.

Murphy happened to be in their cubicle. As soon as the two turned around, they met Murphy's watching eyes.

Itilia Gong, who was a bit regretful just now, suddenly smiled coquettishly, and said, "Isn't this the handsome country bumpkin? It seems that today is not completely fruitless, hehehe!"
