Lord of the Nation: My talent is 100 million points strong

Chapter 300 Broken Blade and Blue Rose【5000】

Under Kelly's guidance, Lei Xiao and his party walked straight to the Shanglu Fair.

After Lei Xiao's arrangement, in order to deceive others and avoid unnecessary troubles.

With white erect ears and a big tail, Bai Wei, who has obvious characteristics of the werewolf clan, and Lin, who is the branch leader of Kongqing Town, and the knotweed as the trump card, are all hidden in the newly obtained invisibility cloak, and all Equipped with a ring of concealment.

As for the rest of the subordinates, Lei Xiao was also divided into two groups, himself in the group with Chao Yan, and Fang Hai in the group with A Ling and A Bing, pretending they didn't know each other.

In this way, even if I got a lot of items later, if the two teams were split, it would naturally not be so eye-catching.

During the auction, you can also wait for your own auction item to appear, compare and bid with each other, and raise the price a little, so as to maximize your profit.

Before this, through Kelly's introduction, Lei Xiao had already learned about it.

The three auctions in the afternoon, evening and evening were all held inside the huge Shanglu Fair.

However, the first two sessions were in the normal auction room of the fair.

And the last one, of course, is the special auction hall that was carefully arranged by the city lord Fanyin to attract members of the mysterious organization.

Facing the scorching sun overhead, one big and one small, and walking up the shiny stone steps of the trade fair, Lei Xiao noticed.

At this time, except for the original guards of the trade fair, those who were on duty at the entrance of the trade fair.

There are also elite soldiers in silver-white armor and elite soldiers in dark brown leather armor standing neatly.

I saw the guards' piercing eyes, constantly scanning back and forth on the surrounding crowd.

The weapon in his hand, also under the bright sunlight, reflected a series of cool and cold lights, which looked quite majestic.

On the roof of the Shanglu Trade Fair, where there was no one before, and the tops of some surrounding high-rise buildings, you can also see from time to time, groups of archers with quiver on their backs, watching everything on the street closely.

"The defense is quite strict, and there is no shortage of Tier [-] powerhouses. It seems that this is obviously the defense force of the Fanyin City Shanglu Trade Fair, Fanyin City Lord, and Fanyin City Mercenary Union."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and muttered to himself in his heart: "It really makes people look forward to the arrival of the night."

"Fanyin City Lord's side, the mysterious organization's side, plus many powerful people from various forces who participated in the meeting but didn't know about it, and my appearance... At that time, something very interesting will definitely happen."

While Lei Xiao was thinking secretly, under the guidance of Kelly, the group of people had already stepped into the gate of the Shanglu Fair and entered the luxuriously decorated hall.

I saw that the hall was already very lively and crowded with people. The business counters in the previous two office areas had been removed, and a lot of luxurious sofa seats and long wooden dining tables had been added.

On the dining table covered with exquisite light white tablecloth, there are some exquisite desserts and iced champagne for the guests to eat freely.

In twos and threes, the nobles and wealthy businessmen dressed in fine clothes, either gracefully shook their wine glasses and stopped to talk in a low voice, or laughed boldly.

During the period, there were also a large number of young and beautiful maids walking back and forth with dinner plates to serve. It looked like a large-scale social banquet.

It is worth mentioning that, in addition to the three subordinates hidden under the invisibility cloak.

Lei Xiao and the others were not wearing illusion cloaks, but were simply disguised in ordinary aristocratic attire, so they did not attract the attention of other people present.

"Lord, among the crowd present, there are a large number of second-tier peak, third-tier, and sporadic fourth-tier powerhouses. It seems that most of the powerhouses in the city are basically concentrated here."

The rough voice of the knotweed was quickly transmitted through the words.

"As expected, everyone can follow the steps."

Lei Xiao first nodded to another group of Fang Hai and others beside him, signaling the three to move freely nearby.

Afterwards, Lei Xiao walked towards the crowd leisurely with Chaoyan and Kelly.

At present, aside from the second-level nine-star magical power, Lei Xiao himself, who is a master of both magic and martial arts, has reached the third-level five-star physical strength, and he has mastered [Mirage Magic], a very confusing general-purpose illusion. class skills.

And in the space bracelet, Lei Xiao also carried 24 Tier 200 Earth Guardians with powerful defenses, more than [-] Tier [-] offensive magic scrolls, advanced Pyroblast bombs and Dark Light Bursts.

Coupled with the main powerhouses such as the knotweed, and the [Blessing of the Southern Cross] that can withstand a fatal injury as the trump card, even if there are any unexpected emergencies in the auction, it can naturally be done with ease.

In addition, Lei Xiao's apparent identity was just one of the many nobles who came to participate in the auction, and it was an extremely remote one, an extremely ordinary, even inconspicuous existence, so there was no need to worry about problems with his identity.

"My lord, most of the people who came to participate in the auction this time are well-known nobles, wealthy businessmen, and other large forces in the surrounding area."

In a relatively quiet corner, Kelly Zhu, who was following Lei Xiao, slightly parted her lips and began to introduce in a low voice.

She raised her slender hand and pointed at an elderly nobleman with white beard and hair but a straight body not far away.

Then he continued softly: "For example, that is the great elder of the Xuansen family of the marquis family. He just broke through the shackles recently and stepped into the level of the fourth-order powerhouse. He was not only awarded the title of earl by the Lengyan royal family, but also got a It’s not a small territory, it can be said to be full of scenery, ushering in the second spring of life.”

"It's kind of interesting."

Looking at the old strong man with a red face who was clinking glasses and chatting with several other nobles, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

"And that one is the more famous nearby, Captain Tina of the Blue Rose Knights."

Kelly pointed to the other side, the young female knight who was chatting with several noble women.

Looking in the direction of Kelly's finger, and looking past the noisy crowd around, Lei Xiao noticed.

The female knight named Tina was wearing a set of light blue knight casual clothes, which perfectly outlined her mature and slender figure.

Compared with Lin, who is also a female knight, her pretty face is less heroic, but more charming.

Coupled with the indifferent temperament exuding from her body, she has a feeling of glamorous beauty like a royal sister.

"The strength is comparable to that of Lin, and it seems that she is also at the peak level of the third order. Being able to reach this level at this age can also be said to be an extraordinary talent."

Lei Xiao nodded with great interest, and murmured in his heart: "This is the first time I have seen such a power as the Knights."

With a better understanding of this world, Lei Xiao understands clearly.

In this world, there are roughly two types of knight orders.

The first type is directly funded by the royal family itself, or the powerful nobles, directly under the Knights Order.

Compared with ordinary cavalry units, the Knights not only have stronger combat power, but also have a complete internal personnel structure, have garrison and recruitment authority independent of ordinary troops, and often only obey the orders of the founders themselves, basically It is equivalent to the sole proprietorship company in the previous life.

The second type is an independent knight order established by a less powerful noble or multiple nobles who jointly fund and provide a residence.

The relationship between the independent knights and the nobles who invested is not so much a relationship between superiors and subordinates, but a win-win relationship. During wartime, these nobles will assist these nobles in defending their territories. Basically, it is equivalent to a joint venture company in the previous life.

However, because the amount of funds is far less than that of the directly affiliated knights, most independent knights often need to do extra work by themselves to maintain the normal operation of the knights.

For example, like a mercenary group, accept commissions to earn commissions, or even directly cooperate with large mercenary groups, etc.

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao stroked his chin with a pensive look on his face.

"With my current financial resources, I can easily establish several brigades, or even a knight order with the size of a legion."

"However, even if the funds are sufficient, if it is established from scratch, the recruitment of various talents, the training of soldiers, and tactical drills are too tedious and time-consuming, and it is difficult to form combat effectiveness in a short period of time. "

"Therefore, the fastest way is naturally to directly acquire these ready-made direct or independent knight orders."

Lei Xiao looked at the exquisite back of the indifferent female knight not far away, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Good guy, I was just poaching talents at the beginning, and now I am planning to directly acquire the entire company. As long as the two are carried out at the same time, I can increase my overall combat power faster."

Nodding thoughtfully, Lei Xiao said to the woman in red next to him, "Kelly, what is the strength of the Blue Rose Knights?"

"My lord, the Blue Rose Knights is an independent knights. It is located in Tiege Fort in the middle of Fanyin City and Kongqing Town. The strength composition is unknown."

Kelly bowed slightly and responded respectfully.

"I see."

Lei Xiao casually took the goblet respectfully handed over by a pretty waitress, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

I saw Lei Xiao shaking the rose-colored liquid in it, sniffing the faint aroma of sweet wine, and asked, "Are there any other knights nearby?"

"My lord, there is also an independent knight order of similar size, called the Broken Blade Knights."

Kelly first took a piece of the exquisite triangular cheesecake handed over by Zhao Yan, who was devouring it, and then pointed to a young man not far away, who was also dressed in casual cavaliers and had long hair parted in the middle, and said, "Then The first one is the head of the Broken Blade Knights, named Ryan."

"It is said that the Knights of the Rose and the Knights of the Broken Blade, due to the overlap of some mission areas, often have some small-scale conflicts, and are in a state of incompatibility."

After a pause, Kelly added: "However, fortunately, both of them are more restrained, and they have been living in peace."

"Understood, is the strength also at the peak of Tier [-]?"

Looking at the elegant male aristocrat who acted and behaved quite similar to Ye Cang, Lei Xiao nodded and thought inwardly.

"It seems that these two are my target people."

"However, we can't be too anxious about this matter. Firstly, there are too many forces behind it, and secondly, the details of the other party are still unclear. In addition, my main purpose this time is to obtain the mysterious ancient box. Therefore, as long as you first Getting acquainted with these two people and establishing a preliminary relationship is considered a worthwhile trip."

Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, the flow of people around began to rush towards the corridor ahead.

This undoubtedly means that the auction is obviously about to start soon.

Without hesitation, Lei Xiao and Kelly also took steps to keep up with the surging crowd.

"So fast? I haven't had time to taste the red velvet cake and pineapple buns..."

She acted like a little hamster the whole time, her mouth was never idle, and before she left, she glanced at the long dining table in front of her with regret, and sighed softly with her eyebrows lowered.

"When you came out of the trade fair in the morning, you didn't seem to stop talking, and you didn't miss your lunch, and you don't know where you ate it."

Seeing this, Lei Xiao casually rewarded the other party with a chestnut, and shook his head helplessly.

Next, under Kelly's guidance, Lei Xiao, Chao Yan, and the three subordinates under the invisibility cloak directly entered the VIP passage with less traffic, and walked straight towards the auction hall.

During this process, Lei Xiao also met Keli and several other strange nobles who also walked into the VIP passage.

However, due to the clothes and appearance of Lei Xiao and his party, they have already taken on a new look, and the number of them is also different.

Therefore, it is naturally impossible for the other party to recognize her, but with a gloomy face, she glared at Kelly, and then left straight away, while Nan Yue, who had been in charge of monitoring the other party, immediately followed closely.

As for Klee's vice president's father, he was on his way after being reported by Nan Xing just now.

Walking along the exquisite and soft red carpet, it didn't take long before a luxuriously decorated circular hall came into Lei Xiao's eyes.

At a glance, whether it is the large crystal chandelier inlaid with light crystals, the exquisite landscape wall carvings on the marble walls, or the white stone pillars and figure sculptures on both sides, it reveals a magnificent and luxurious atmosphere everywhere. .

Moreover, some nobles have already arrived at the scene first, talking to each other in low voices.

"My lord, the entrance to the auction house is ahead."

Kelly's crisp voice immediately rang in Lei Xiao's ears.

"understood."

Looking at the nobles with expectant faces, Lei Xiao nodded.

At the end of the hall, a huge door has been opened, and there are beautiful trade fair etiquette personnel standing on both sides, and everyone's face is filled with bright smiles.

"It is indeed a place where only nobles and wealthy businessmen can set foot."

Lei Xiao looked at the rows of young women with exquisite makeup and graceful figures, nodded slightly, and didn't take another look.

If it was in the previous life, Lei Xiao would probably be able to stare out his eyes right now.

But now, for Lei Xiao who can take out millions of golden dragons at will and spend money like water, this is no longer a big scene.

Stepping straight into the interior of the auction house, Lei Xiao noticed.

The light here is dim, just like walking into the projection hall of a movie theater.

I saw that this underground auction house is extremely huge, with a circular layout as a whole, and a large number of seats are densely packed and neatly arranged.

The outermost seats are horizontal rows of seats like a theater, and further forward, there are sofa booths with tables. As for the middle, there is an auction table of suitable height.

Apart from the luxurious decoration style, the most eye-catching thing in the hall is the dark blue dome above the head.

On the dark blue dome, there are inlaid with sparkling light crystals.

Because the area of ​​the hall is too large, the brilliance emitted by the light crystals is extremely limited.

It looks like the stars are dotted, just like the vast night sky full of stars, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.

"My lord, be careful where you step, please follow your subordinates."

Immediately, Kelly's soft voice rang in Lei Xiao's ears again.

Going all the way down the spacious stairs, Lei Xiao and his party finally stopped in the second row booth area near the auction stage.

This position was specially discussed between Lei Xiao and Kelly.

Here you can clearly see the auction items on the stage without being too conspicuous, which is very good.

Looking at the luxurious sofa made of velvet in front of him, Lei Xiao directly bent down and sat down, while Chao Yan, who was at the side, also sat next to Lei Xiao.

Unsurprisingly, as soon as this girl sat down, she was immediately attracted by the exquisite pastries and rich fruit plate placed on the round table in front of her. Her eyes were shining brightly, as if she had seen her prey.

Lei Xiao, on the other hand, was holding a champagne glass, while feeling the soft touch of the luxurious sofa, he turned his eyes to the ordinary nobles and businessmen behind him who were seated in the hard seat area in the back row, and seemed a bit crowded. emotion.

I have to say that in this different world of swords and magic, the privileges of high-level aristocrats I enjoy are indeed fascinating.

"My lord, the subordinate will leave temporarily."

When Lei Xiao was quite emotional, Kelly first picked up the top-quality champagne on the table, filled it for Lei Xiao, and then said respectfully in a low voice.

In front of Lei Xiao, this unreasonable, hot-tempered young lady has already become as docile as a rabbit.

"Go."

Lei Xiao waved his hand casually, and his eyes fell on the people who were seated one after another.

I saw that the first ones to be seated were Tina, the head of the Blue Rose Knights, and several third-tier powerhouses who were also dressed in casual knight clothes.

She is located in the third row of the booth area, just behind Lei Xiao on the left.

From this distance, Lei Xiao could even clearly see the crystal necklace on the other party's fair neck.

The next seat was Ryan of the Broken Blade Knights.

The team configuration of this elegant nobleman is almost the same as that of Tina.

Moreover, there was a booth between the two. The moment Ryan took his seat, Lei Xiao obviously heard two extremely disdainful hums, which came from behind at the same time.

This move made another fat noble who was seated in the middle and whose strength was at the peak of the second order tremble, and quickly took a sip of the champagne on the table to suppress his shock.

"It seems that the relationship between these two knight orders really cannot be described as good."

Noticing this scene, Lei Xiao pouted slightly.

As for Fang Hai and A Ling and A Bing, they were arranged in the last row of the booth area, that is, the fifth row, just diagonally opposite Lei Xiao.

In this way, under the slightly dim light, after about 20 minutes, all the nobles around Lei Xiao were seated, making the huge venue full of people everywhere.

Jingle Bell.

The crisp and pleasant wind chime sounded.

A tall and straight figure, surrounded by several etiquette personnel, slowly walked out of the underground passage in the middle of the auction table.

This undoubtedly shows that the much-anticipated Fanyin City Auction is about to begin.

Seeing this, Lei Xiao perked up, his face full of anticipation.
