Chapter 309 The Mysterious Ancient Box【5K】

On the high platform like a stage, the white-haired old auctioneer was making witty remarks. While introducing in an old and loud voice, he showed some magical items one after another, such as colorful paintings painted with magic paint.

This kind of magical painting created with magic paint and painting skills not only looks extremely three-dimensional like a 3D picture, but also the shapes and movements of the characters and scenes can even change, which made Lei Xiao amazed.

Facing these colorful objects, the nobles and wealthy businessmen in the audience also let out bursts of exclamation from time to time.

It's just that the overall atmosphere is not as high as the previous two games.

It's no wonder that in this different world of swords and magic, after all, it is more practical to equip potions that can improve strength or save life.

During this process, the most intense bidding was between a rich and fat nobleman and another wealthy businessman for a painting of "Bright Elf Girl Against the Light".

In the end, the rich and fat nobleman successfully acquired it at the price of 30000 golden dragons.

"Good guy, let him be happy."

Looking at the fat face of the rich and fat nobleman, his face was full of excitement, and Lei Xiao looked at the lifelike women on the canvas, who were playing hazyly by the forest river, and couldn't help curling his lips.

It seems that the rich and fat nobles really made a worthwhile trip this time.

Lei Xiao noticed further while his gaze was shifting.

Judging from the look of anticipation on the faces of most of the guests present, it was obvious that they were all waiting for the finale, the Ancient Box, to appear.

After all, this mysterious thing has just been discovered, and it has attracted the covetousness of unknown forces. I am afraid that there must be some big secret hidden in it.

Super martial arts or magic?A rare potion recipe or potion?The whereabouts of the huge treasure?
Once it is penetrated, maybe it will soar into the sky from now on, it is still unknown!

"Are you really waiting for the appearance of the ancient box?"

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, feeling his palms sweat a little.

The moment the ancient box appeared, it also meant that a bloody storm caused by a fifth-order powerhouse was about to sweep the audience madly.

"My lord, under the guidance of Kerry and Gary, the 13 powerful members of the mysterious organization have quietly killed several teams of Fanyin City archers who were standing guard on the roof of the Shanglu Fair."

Not long after, Nan Xing's sassy voice came to Lei Xiao's ears: "Currently, the other party is entering the interior of the trade fair through the window on the balcony below!"

"Is it finally here?"

Lei Xiao took a deep breath, nodded to the knotweed hidden behind the stone pillar not far away, and signaled him to get ready for battle.

In the position of this visual blind spot, coupled with the assistance of the concealment ring, even the so-called Shura would not be able to detect the existence of the knotweed stick.

As for Lin and Bai Wei, with Kelly's assistance, they have already gone to the vicinity of the most advanced exhibition area of ​​the trade fair, ready to make some big noises at any time to attract Gail to deal with them.

At this point, everything is ready, just waiting for the battle between Fanyin City Lord and the mysterious organization powerhouse.

"The one that will appear next is the finale item of this auction, the ancient casket that was discovered in the ancient ruins not long ago! Presumably, all the guests here have been looking forward to this moment for a long time, right?"

The resounding voice of the white-haired old auctioneer resounded through the entire auction house again: "Then, let us uncover the true face of this mysterious thing together!"

After the old auctioneer finished speaking, all the nobles and merchants in the audience immediately opened their eyes wide and straightened their necks one by one.

On the other hand, Lei Xiao directly swallowed a Fengmu Pill, improving his eyesight to a new level, and watched intently.

The audience was silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on the auction stage at the front.

Crash.

Accompanied by the roar of metal chains colliding, a giant bluestone platform began to slowly rise from the center of the stage.

On the platform, there is a black square object that is one meter square.

I saw that the surface of this black square object was smooth, with magic streamers flashing from time to time, like a huge magic cardboard box.

"This should be the powerful magic barrier that Kelly mentioned, right?"

"It is said that this magic barrier has a perfect energy self-circulation system, and even the fifth-order powerhouse cannot break it. At the same time, it has a constant weight, making it impossible for people to carry it."

Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and continued to observe: "Unfortunately, although it is extremely strong, the covered area is extremely small, and like the storage space, it can only store inanimate items, which greatly improves its practicality. Lower, almost a safe."

Lei Xiao had just thought about this in secret when he saw the old auctioneer on the stage clapping his hands in a cool way, and immediately several teams of heavily armed trade fair guards came out from the passages on the left and right sides under the stage. , completely surrounded the entire stage.

Judging from the breath, the strength of each guard is above the second-tier senior level, and there are also a few strong breaths of third-tier powerhouses mixed in.

This sudden scene made the quiet and peaceful atmosphere in the venue suddenly tense.

"Hehe, please don't worry."

The old auctioneer on the stage raised his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and said with a smile: "You must have heard about it. When this box was first discovered, it was robbed by unknown forces. In order to ensure that everyone and the ancients Only because of the safety of the box, we will take this action.”

"It's a grand-sounding statement, but it's actually just to guard against strong people with mysterious organizations and mix in the guest team, right? But this is obviously not the main force of the trap this time."

Still narrowing his eyes, Lei Xiao murmured in his heart, "The reason why City Lord Fanyin made such an arrangement probably has a false and real purpose to confuse the powerful members of the mysterious organization."

"Dear distinguished guests, please join me in appreciating the true face of this ancient box!"

The old auctioneer said this impassionedly, and then nodded to several magicians who were waiting not far away.

The powerful magicians immediately understood, and went straight to the bluestone platform in the center of the auction platform, followed by the sound of high-pitched and obscure incantations.

Not long after, the splendor shining on the square black enchantment was visibly dimmed.

"This should be the spell to break the barrier."

Looking at this rather miraculous scene, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

According to what Kelly said before, this special high-strength magic barrier has a unique set of sealing and unlocking rules.

Each unlocking spell is completely different and requires multiple people to complete. This is just one of the protective measures.

It is not difficult to see from this that the protective measures of this enchantment can indeed be said to be very perfect.

"No wonder the powerhouses of the mysterious organization have been waiting for the opportunity. As the vice president, Gary naturally knows better than anyone how difficult it is to unravel it."

Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, he saw that after the powerful magicians on the stage had finished casting their spells, the old auctioneer took out a lavender spar from his bosom, and gently stuck it on the already dim Above the black enchantment of light.

Accompanied by the crisp sound of glass shattering, the black barrier above the bluestone platform began to collapse rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this point, a half-meter-square dark gray box finally appeared in front of everyone.

The box is square and a perfect cube. It has no components like a lid or a small drawer, and its shape is very similar to a Rubik's cube.

Under the reflection of a large number of light crystals, its surface reflected a dim and strange light, as if it had absorbed part of the light source.

It seems that the box is made of a special material between metal and spar, which is very magical.

"Good guy, is this the mysterious ancient box?"

Under the influence of Fengmu Pill, Lei Xiao looked at this place carefully, with a look of surprise on his face, he sighed in his heart: "It really is an extraordinary existence."

I saw that the whole body of this mysterious box was covered with mysterious finely-crafted textures, like an extremely complicated maze. Just staring at it for a few seconds would make people feel inexplicably dizzy.

"Looking at it from this distance alone, this box gives people a very heavy sense of age. It seems to have some kind of magical power, which makes people feel awe-inspiring. It is indeed not an ordinary thing."

Surprised at this point in his heart, Lei Xiao took a sip of champagne to suppress his shock, and then continued to think.

"By the way, is this really a box for holding things? Which race left it?"

"The most important thing is, what kind of secret is hidden in it, so that the mysterious organization knows that this place is a trap, but still wants to break in at all costs?"

Lei Xiao had just come here thinking secretly, and saw the old auctioneer on the auction table, slowly introducing: "As you can see, this is the ancient box. According to the judgment of our senior archaeologists in Fanyin City, it is extremely mysterious. The objects tested probably came from the blank age 3000 years ago, and it is still unknown which race they belong to.”

"However, by looking at the clues in the ruins, we have come to a preliminary conclusion, that is, this thing does not come from well-known races such as humans, elves, dwarves, winged humans, etc., but is left by a mysterious race that disappeared .”

"Hehe, after all, in that unknown blank age, there are not a few races that have completely disappeared, which further increases the value and mystery of this box."

Looking at the concentrated looks of the nobles and businessmen under the stage, the old auctioneer smiled slightly and introduced: "After many attempts, we have further discovered that whether it is on the physical level or on the magical level, this The boxes cannot be opened."

"As for why we concluded that it was a box, it was because after we detected it with an expensive professional detection magic scroll, there was some kind of weak magical reaction inside the box, which undoubtedly proved that there must be some kind of magic hidden in it. Mystery."

The old auctioneer paused again, and while stroking the gray beard on the old face, he continued: "Therefore, the respected Lord Fanyin City decided, since our Fanyin City is really unable to decipher the secret, it is better to use this Take out the things and let those who are destined to compete for them."

"Perhaps this predestined person will discover the secret. It's still unknown. Once a guest takes advantage of this to make a fortune, don't forget about our Fanyin City, haha."

As soon as the old auctioneer said this, all the nobles and merchants in the audience couldn't help but stare at the quaint box reflecting the dim light on the stage.

Needless to say, just from the appearance, date, and being coveted by gangsters, it can be completely concluded that this thing is absolutely extraordinary!

At this moment, many thoughtful nobles are already thinking about how to leave Fanyin City smoothly once they win it.

Of course, among the crowd present, only Lei Xiao and his subordinates clearly understood.

All this is just a cover for City Lord Fanyin to lure the enemy, and he will not really auction it off.

"Since the Lord Fanyin has justified the purpose of auctioning the ancient box, even if a mysterious organization comes to attack, other nobles and wealthy businessmen who are affected will naturally not be able to blame him. An old fox."

Lei Xiao rolled his dark eyes, observing the expressions of the guests around him, while continuing to think secretly in his heart.

Although I don't know how much of what the other party said is true or false, but if this mysterious box really came from the blank era 3000 years ago, then everything would indeed make sense.

After all, when I encountered mysterious organizations before, whether it was the ruins of the ancient battlefield or the ruins of the elves on the edge of Shen Banxia's territory, they were all related to the blank era 3000 years ago.

"It seems that the mysterious organization really has some ulterior secrets, no, or a conspiracy is more appropriate."

Just when Lei Xiao frowned and thought about this.

The prompt sound of the recitation sounded suddenly, and Nan Xing's dignified voice came out immediately: "My lord, these powerful people from the mysterious organization circled around, from the high-level area of ​​the Shanglu Fair, and finally entered the first floor In a room behind the main entrance hall."

"Because the door of the room was closed too quickly, both the subordinate and Nan Yue were blocked from the door, unable to enter the room for further inspection."

Nan Xing's voice became more anxious, and he asked for instructions: "My lord, what should I do next?"

"You don't need to act rashly, just stay outside the door."

Having said this softly, Lei Xiao's face once again showed doubts.

"This auction house is obviously on the basement floor. Since the other party wants to seize the mysterious box, how can they enter the room on the upper floor?"

After thinking for a moment, Lei Xiao's body trembled, and he suddenly understood.

"It seems that these guys are planning to take an unusual path, open a hole on the upper floor, and then enter the venue vertically from above the auction table, and snatch the ancient box from the sky! The battle is about to begin!"

Thinking of this, a drop of cold sweat slipped quietly from Lei Xiao's forehead.

Without any hesitation, he immediately contacted Lin, Bai Wei, and Kelly who were waiting outside the auction site, and signaled that they could start a big fuss.

boom!boom!boom!
Accompanied by a series of loud noises, there was a sudden violent explosion outside the auction house.

This is exactly what Lei Xiao has, the sound of the third-order magic scroll and the high-level Pyroblast bomb.

"Can take the precious third-order magic scroll as a tool to attract people's attention, I'm afraid not many people will do it?"

Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, turned his head slightly, and looked at Gail who was in the back row of the venue.

Finding that he really looked nervous, he led several teams of trade fair guards to leave the auction hall in a hurry.

At the same time, this series of loud noises, like a giant water-type dragon roaring out to sea, caused waves of huge waves to set off in the calm auction house.

Many nobles and wealthy businessmen subconsciously stood up from their seats, looked around, with bewildered expressions on their faces.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"Where's my master's guard? Come and protect me!"

"Could it be who is using the ground splitting technique?"

"No, that's obviously the explosion of fire magic!"

"No... Could it be that someone is going to attack?"

In the increasingly chaotic auction field, nobles and wealthy merchants of average strength were all showing panic, while those powerful nobles above the third rank had already drawn their weapons from their waists and were ready to go.

Impressive auras, like bursting flames one after another, began to erupt one after another in the venue, rippling waves of energy around them one after another.

This is a world where the strong are respected.

Although these aristocrats and old men usually pamper them with a superior and drunken attitude, a considerable part of them are no less obsessed with cultivation than ordinary civilian powerhouses.

On the contrary, due to the abundance of funds, the ability to purchase high-end equipment, and the use of potions, coupled with the elite education of the upper class, the strength of most aristocratic powerhouses is far higher than that of ordinary civilian powerhouses .

This is the absolute gap in resources.

Of course, for a heterogeneous person like Lei Xiao who has no concept of money, he naturally doesn't value these things, because it is impossible for anyone to have as many resources as him.

The nobles and merchants on the field were all in a mess, unable to understand the current situation at all.

The old auctioneer on the stage still looked calm and relaxed, while stroking his beard lightly, he smiled faintly at the crowd and said, "Dear guests, please don't worry. Dear Lord Fanyin, early on! All precautions have been taken..."

However, his words were not finished yet.

boom!
Accompanied by another deafening bang.

On the huge auction stage, it was like a rain of mud and rocks, dust was everywhere, and earth and rocks were flying.

A large number of flying stones hit the surrounding walls and the crowd in the front row who had no time to dodge.

Without any warning, under the astonished and disbelieving gazes of the nobles, thirteen figures exuding strong killing intent appeared on the messy stage without anyone knowing it.

"Has it finally appeared?"

Surrounded by his subordinates, Lei Xiao, who was hiding in the crowd, narrowed his eyes slightly with a calm expression.

A good show is about to be staged.
