My Magic Age

Chapter 68 69. Auction House (Part 1)

This is actually a bit like a boxing ring, but much smaller than that. So much so that at first I thought I was in the wrong place, and somehow found my way into a black market boxing match. This is a square building with an area of ​​more than 300 square meters. In the center is a platform made of wooden boards that are three meters square and one meter high. There are 7 rows of seats neatly arranged from low to high. The seat at the front near the wooden platform is the lowest, but it is closest to the wooden platform. The farthest seat is already half a meter higher than the wooden platform, but it is not far away from the wooden platform. More than five meters away, you can still watch everything on the wooden platform from a high position, and the location is not bad. There are two passages at the front and back of this square building, both close to the wooden platform. One passage is our way into the venue, and the other is closed and guarded. It is said that it leads to the backstage of the auction house.

I originally thought this was a fighting arena with some performance characteristics. Based on Old Man Su’s introduction, our group found this temporary private auction house on the back street of the town. We asked the waiter at the door and confirmed that it was an auction house. The four of us each spent one silver coin to enter the auction house. Yes, if you want to participate in the auction whether you buy something or not, you have to buy a ticket.

This hall only has four high-legged copper oil lamps the size of street lamps in the park placed on the four corners of the wooden platform in the center. I don’t know what kind of grease is burned in the lamps, but they actually emit a not unpleasant smell of smoke. The roof in the center There is a transom window at the top, and the smoke evaporates and floats up to the roof, where it is swept away by the wind without a trace. When Kuz, Qige, Katarina and I entered the auction house, the auction house was already half full of people. We saw that the clothes of these orcs were much better than those we saw in the market yesterday. The orc vendors are cleaner and tidier, and each one has a heavy money bag hanging around his waist. You can feel that there are some rich orcs here. We were just about to find a place to sit down when we heard someone calling my name softly. I looked up and looked around and found Sister Guoguo and her group of three people sitting at the backmost seat on the left, waving to us. Next to her there were The shield warrior Jonbach and the leader of their storm chaser adventure group, Velu.

When I see acquaintances, I feel much safer. At least I won't be deliberately troubled like in the restaurant yesterday. If I hadn't found an opportunity to restrain Ming Qian yesterday, maybe we would be the ones who suffered. I pulled Qige in front, and Kuz walked at the end along a narrow passageway until I climbed to the end. I heard Sister Guoguo ask me with some complaints: "I haven't been able to find you since we camped yesterday." , I heard that you went to the free market? "

Sitting on her left were Jianbach and Vilu. I greeted them politely, then sat down next to Sister Guoguo and said to her: "Well, originally we wanted to buy a Neti bow. By the way, The long-handled mountain ax was sold, so I went to the shop to try my luck."

Qi Ge sat down quietly next to me naturally. When she saw Sister Guoguo, she nodded politely but did not speak. Katarina was the focus of attention as soon as she entered the auction house. Her long red hair and beautiful face full of youthful atmosphere attracted the attention of most of the male orcs in the auction house. Fortunately, at Qige's request, Katrina Lina was wearing a skirt that did not show off her figure, but the skirt did not cover her towering breasts. The smooth white patch between the collar made many orcs salivate. Catalina didn't expect to cause such a commotion. She was so frightened that her heart was trembling. She followed Qige and I closely, lowering her head as much as possible.

Kurz followed behind without concealing his identity as a werewolf. He even looked at the orcs who looked at us blatantly. The orc werewolves have a very clear hierarchy. Among them, the Silver Moon Wolf Clan has the most noble academic skills. They once ruled the wolf tribe for a long time. For hundreds of years, the Silver Moon werewolves had very obvious crescent moon-shaped marks on their chests, which were easy to identify if they opened their chests. However, now that the Silver Moon family's family fortune has declined, they have faded out of the ranks of orc rulers. The remaining tribes are several major wolf tribes, including the White Wolf tribe, which is still a matriarchal society. They occupy Gaudamir in the southernmost part of the Pai Plateau, and their current leader is Chief Myra Mares. The immortal blood wolf clan that guards the town of Gurudin at the eastern end of the Pai Plateau is Kuz's relative. According to Kuz, their leader is the shaman Koule Paulos. The strongest shaman among the orc werewolves has supreme appeal, and the scepter in his hand represents the will of the beast god. There are several other powerful werewolf tribes scattered around the plateau, such as the Gray Claw Wolf Clan led by King Kutus, the War Wolf Clan guarding the sacred snow-capped mountains, and so on. But the most influential one now is the blood wolf clan, because they have the power of blood inheritance "self-healing". This powerful talent known as immortality on the battlefield has allowed the blood wolf clan to guard it for three hundred years. To the eastern defense line of Pai Plateau. Looking closely at the subtle differences between each different werewolf, Kurtz's body shape and figure are standard for the blood wolf clan, so he has an undisguised contempt for other werewolves.

"Have you bought a bow, Aziz?" Sister Guoguo tilted her head back and asked Kuz who had just sat down.

Kurtz grinned widely and nodded heavily, looking very proud. Sister Guoguo also smiled and invited me again and said, "We will set off early tomorrow morning and enter the northern wilderness. You can just follow us. I won't trust you and Kuz to act on your own!"

I insisted that I would not listen to Sister Guoguo's opinion, shook my head and said to her: "Then what's the difference between us and being in the caravan? It's safer to hide in the caravan. Since we go out to experience, we are not afraid of danger. Every werewolf child has to go through this spring hunt alone, it’s okay for Az and I to go together, sister!”

Qige's eyes looked at me, and the words in her eyes seemed to be: Why didn't you tell your sister that I also want to join your team? Not only did I see it clearly, but Sister Guoguo saw the clues at a glance, and then looked at me with questioning eyes. I buried my head in my chest and said to Sister Guoguo: "Qige asked for it herself. I can't refuse her!"

"I also heard that you had a fight with that group of people in the orc restaurant yesterday. I heard that a child stabbed a noble with a wolfsbane dagger. Do you feel that your life is too comfortable? Find it for yourself. Exciting?" Sister Guoguo reached out and held my ears, which made Catalina next door grin as if she was holding her ears.

I grinned and begged for mercy: "Sister, they came to me. They thought I was a soft persimmon, easier to pinch..."

"Then why didn't you act more decisively with that knife? You'll leave trouble for people to block you in the wasteland! Idiot!" Sister Guoguo's voice became extremely low, and she said it in my ear, but Jianbach and How could Qige not hear it when she was sitting next to us? How could a demon hunting archer like Weilu, who was approaching level 10 and transferring for the first time, not hear it? How could a mixed-race child like Katarina, who was born with the blood of an orc-rabbit whose ears are ten times more sensitive than others, not be able to hear? I observed Jianbach’s dumbfounded expression from the corner of my eye, and thought to myself: Brother, why can’t you get along with yourself like this? How about a woman like Sister Guoguo, who looks as cold as an iceberg but is actually extremely strong and unattractive on the inside?

Weiru's zombie face didn't even move. His eyes were fixed on the square platform in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.

It seems that the wolf nature is deeply rooted in everyone's heart here. I think I have to change the topic and not be criticized all the time! So he said, "Sister, what are you doing here today?"

"Our boss wants to change his bow, so we will come and take a look. If there is anything good and the price is right, buy it!" Sister Guoguo let me go, looked at Qige thoughtfully, and then said lowly to me. He said in a loud voice: "You have suddenly changed from two people to four people. The target is not only twice as big, but also has little mobility. It is difficult to get rid of people who are following you. You can't run and you can't win. , Aren’t you looking for death?”

"We can do it!" I am a tough-necked person, and I will definitely fight for what I have decided on.

There are some reasons why I am so confident. Not to mention that I bought an excellent quality alloy bow yesterday. I spent the whole night yesterday making two fire-gathering magic scrolls. I took a break and made two more. After struggling like this all night, I was asked to make twenty-three fire-gathering magic scrolls. Magic Scrolls, although few were later made Frost magic scroll, but the process was very difficult. After failing seven times in a row, I sadly discovered that the detailed explanation of the magic circle said that milky white ink is needed to draw frost, but I have been using the moonlight ink used to make the fire gathering scroll. Even if it is given I can't do it even if I blow up. It was not easy for Qige to adjust a little bit of milky white ink. The reason was that the material of ice jade was not enough. When I drew the first picture, I discovered that after I used up all the magic values ​​in my body, the magic circle was still short of the last one. If you don't finish a single stroke, I'll give you a hard time!

When I first started drawing, I didn’t pay too much attention to my own mana reserves. I just thought that the mana in my body was almost full, so I took action decisively. However, I didn’t expect that making frost would consume more mana than the Fire Gathering Scroll. Double, so the first one failed decisively again. Fortunately, I succeeded in getting three Frost Magic Scrolls in a row. Qige said she had nothing to say about my extremely high production success rate. Only then did she really realize that talent was like a wall in front of her. It was very difficult to become an inscriptionist without enough magic perception. Qige and I had twenty-two fire-gathering magic scrolls and two frost magic scrolls in our backpacks. These were the results of the whole night's work last night. We carried them to the auction house today because we wanted to get some information before the official auction. The merchants held free auctions to exchange the cost of the materials.

It can be said that there are a large number of magic scrolls circulating in the market. As long as you are a magician, you only need to read the basic knowledge of two inscription masters' introductory chapters. Everyone can make inscriptions, but why the price of magic scrolls remains high? That is the success rate. question. The lower the level of the inscription master, the lower the success rate of making a scroll. An entry-level inscription master like me would be qualified if he could successfully make one magic scroll using the materials of ten. But in this case, the materials spent can be purchased. Got two finished magic scrolls back. Therefore, practicing making magic scrolls is a very expensive thing. If you want to make money, you must have a very stable production success rate, at least a 25% success rate to maintain the cost.
