Chapter 128 The auction begins

In the corridor of the hotel, Alisa turned her head sideways, looked at Lynn who suddenly "increased" a lot beside her, and asked in doubt.

"Why do you have to click in?"

Lynn also turned his head to look at her: "Since it's a masquerade ball, there must be dancing, right?"

"Can you dance?"

"No." Alyssa replied calmly, "But, I can learn."

"Study?" Lynn was slightly taken aback.

"This kind of thing should be very simple, right?" Alisa said softly, "Although I may not be able to learn the twists and turns, if I just imitate the movements, it shouldn't be too difficult."

"."

Alisa's words surprised Lynn a little.

You know, dance is about the coordination of the whole body and the familiarity with the movements. Let alone whether a magician can really make every muscle of the body obey the arrangement of the brain. There are quite a few dances that are more complicated.

Even Lynn, it took him a while to get acquainted. Although not many, it is definitely not something that can be learned at a glance.

But Alyssa said she could do it.

Lin En didn't feel that the girl was talking, but just sighed inexplicably at the other party's strong learning ability.

Shaking his head, he responded: "In short, we still managed to get in, and the others are not important."

Alisa nodded in agreement: "Although most of the time, the process is more valuable for research, but the ultimate goal is to achieve the result."

This time, Lynn didn't reply to her again.

Because they have already arrived at the auction site.

This is a large hall, and there is no place similar to a stage box around it. Everyone is in the center of the hall, wearing their own masks, and sitting in their respective positions.

Lynn and Alyssa randomly found a low-key seat and sat down, quietly waiting for the start of the auction.

Occasionally, during the boredom of waiting, they exchanged something in whispers.

"By the way, what is the process of the auction?"

"Normally, it's the opening. The organizer brings things up and asks interested people to call for prices. The one with the highest price wins."

"Then, what's abnormal?"

"Abnormal."

"Then, change the subject, you."

During this short period of communication, Lynn felt that his judgment of Alisa might have to change slightly.

Originally, he thought that Alyssa was a relatively taciturn person.

Because of her limited time in the academy, she hardly communicates with other people.

But now, he's changing that label.

Not only is Alisa not taciturn, but she is definitely a chatterbox, and she is also a chatterbox who likes to ask questions.

During this period of time, she was able to lead the topic from the auction to astronomy, then from the sky to the ground, and finally to Lynn herself.

If it wasn't for someone coming up on the stage, Lynn felt that she might even ask her what color her underwear like, and she could even come up with a reason to explain why she asked this question.

Don't think it's impossible.

A few days ago, the barrage used a wonderful metaphor to describe Alyssa's character.

[If Irene gets annoyed by the question, there is a high possibility of a conflict, because Xiao Ai is a person whose desire for knowledge is stronger than her desire for sex! 】

Lynn didn't know what sexual desire was, but he did see the strong desire for knowledge.

"That." Lynn pointed to the stage, "The auction is about to start, shall we prepare first?"

Alyssa closed her mouth without further thought, nodded obediently, and looked at the stage.

On the stage, a middle-aged man in a formal suit stood at the front of the stage with a smile and bowed deeply to everyone.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! Tonight is bound to be an exciting night."

"Because, at this auction, we have prepared a lot of good things."

The familiar opening remark, in just a few sentences, directly gathered everyone's attention and led to the main topic.

The auctioneer flipped his palm, and a gem appeared silently on the white glove.

"This is a Brilliant gem." The auctioneer said with a smile, "I know that although a Brilliant gem is precious to everyone, it is not particularly difficult to obtain. The same is true for the top layer."

"So, if it's just like this, this gem is not worthy of us tonight."

He gently turned the gemstone over to reveal the star engraving on the back.

When the engraving was displayed in front of everyone's eyes, the originally quiet field suddenly became lively like a bomb being dropped.

"Unexpectedly, it is a gemstone from the imperial capital!!"

"Mr. Enoch, can you even get this kind of thing?"

"This is who will be lucky enough to get this gem."

"."

Looking at the engraving on the gemstone, Lynn narrowed his eyes slightly.

The so-called "Emperor Capital" in these populations does not refer to the capital of the Holy Xinghui Empire, but the royal family.

Because from their point of view, there is no difference between Catalina and Xinghui's capital, and they are both places for ordinary people to live anyway.

Only the palace where the emperor lives can be called the imperial capital.

Therefore, this gemstone from the "Emperor Capital" should actually be exclusively used by the Xinghui royal family.

"They seem to be very keen on this kind of stuff?"

Beside her, Alisa asked puzzledly: "If there is no problem with my perception, although the gemstone is full of energy, its magic power is enough and it is not special. It's just that there is more magic power and more impurities."

"Even if this kind of thing is used to provide magic power to experimental items, it may affect the experimental process due to impurities, right?"

"But these people."

"It doesn't matter what it is." Lynn said softly, "What matters is the engraving on the back of the gem."

"For these 'nobles', face is the most important thing."

"If guests come to the house and they show this gem to the other party, the other party will definitely be shocked how they can get something from the Xinghui royal family - this kind of shock is to give them face."

"So, although its practical value is not high, the gems named 'emperor' are not practical, and to them, it is completely unimportant."

"Because after they take it back, I'm afraid they will have to find a place to give it to them. They will definitely not give up on using it."

Alyssa shook her head, expressing her incomprehension.

Lynn didn't explain much, just continued to look at the stage.

Above, the auctioneer was holding up his auction mallet and shouting loudly.

"Now that everyone has a preliminary understanding, then..."

"The starting price for this gemstone from 'Emperor Capital' is."

"—a gold coin!"
