Super Strong Little Divine Farmer
Chapter 1419 - 1420: The Auction Begins
Lin Chen glanced sideways toward the box not far away, seeing a young man in the opposite box staring at him coldly, eyes flashing with a chill.
"Brother Chen, what are you looking at?" Zhang Yu asked beside him.
"Nothing? Just saw an old acquaintance." Lin Chen said casually.
In the opposite box, Yuan Lang was thinking about who the person in front of him was. He looked familiar, but couldn't remember.
Actually, the reason Yuan Lang didn't recognize Lin Chen was that Lin Chen had disguised himself to prevent the other party from recognizing him.
Now, Lin Chen had gained some fame in the world of extraordinary abilities, so to avoid unnecessary trouble when on missions, he simply changed his appearance.
"What's wrong, Young Master?" asked an old man with graying hair next to Yuan Lang.
"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that the person looks somewhat familiar, as if I've seen him somewhere." Yuan Lang withdrew his gaze, puzzled.
"Young Master, you've traveled all over the world these past years, met countless people, and it's not strange to encounter someone who looks familiar." The old man said with a faint smile.
"But for some reason, this young man gives me an extremely cautious feeling." Yuan Lang said, confused.
"How could it be? Young Master, you are already outstanding among the younger generation, what kind of person could give you such a feeling? It's surely a misconception." The old man smiled.
"Perhaps I've been a bit weary from traveling lately. This time, no matter the cost, I must get the Tianyuan Crystal that my father wants." Yuan Lang said coldly.
"Tsk tsk, don't worry, Young Master. We've made detailed plans for the Tianyuan Crystal. Even if the auction fails, as long as the person who wins it leaves Baijiao City, it's still ours." The old man said sinisterly.
"Hehe, indeed, unless he doesn't want to live, who would dare to snatch something from our Yuan family." Yuan Lang said coldly.
In other boxes, the topic among various forces was almost all about the Tianyuan Crystal.
"It seems obtaining the Tianyuan Crystal this time won't be easy!" Lin Chen couldn't help but frown.
The food arrived, and several people ate all the dishes on the table clean.
More than an hour later, even the regular seating below was full of people.
With more and more people, the auction hall became noisy.
At this moment, accompanied by music, the spotlight on the stage lit up.
"Everyone, please quiet down, the auction is about to begin."
A Kong Ling voice sounded, and a hot-dressed young girl stood on the stage.
As the girl appeared, countless eyes gathered on the stage.
Especially many men, whose gazes locked onto the shapely beauty with a seductive physique.
What defines curves, what defines an unparalleled beauty, the girl on stage provided a perfect interpretation.
The girl stood on stage, smiling faintly: "Hello everyone, I'm Mu Xue, the auctioneer for this auction. I won't say much unnecessary words. I can assure you that the items in this auction are absolutely amazing, rare treasures that won't disappoint everyone. Now, I announce the official start of the auction."
As Mu Xue's words fell, the spotlight on stage brightened.
A cylindrical column slowly rose in front of Mu Xue, and there was a glass cabinet on it, containing a long knife flashing a cold light.
Mu Xue flicked her hand and drew the long knife from its sheath.
The cold light spread everywhere, a white thread flashed in the air, and an icy aura instantly enveloped the entire auction hall.
"This knife is called Frost, crafted from Thousand-Year Glacier Mysterious Iron. Martial artists with ice attributes using this weapon can gain an ice attribute bonus." Mu Xue flicked her wrist, and cold air radiated from the blade, making many spectators solemn.
"The starting price for this knife is 100,000, please bid."
Although this knife is nice, it is nonetheless a mundane item, not even considered a Spiritual Artifact, so Lin Chen naturally wouldn't be interested.
However, because the knife possesses the effect of enhancing ice attributes, it still attracts many extraordinary ability users skilled in ice.
Bidding voices quickly rose one after another.
Of course, although Lin Chen was uninterested, it naturally didn't mean others weren't. For a Martial Artist, a suitable weapon is like an Alchemist's cauldron, an essential tool. Therefore, as Mu Xue finished speaking, many bids arose in the auction hall.
Eventually, the knife was won by a white-haired old man for 250,000.
The first auction item fetched a considerable price, and many rare treasures appeared subsequently.
The auctioned items varied in types, including weapons, armor, cultivation techniques, pills, and even some pretty young beauties.
Most of these auction items were of unknown origins, some even obtained through murder, so they couldn't be exposed and had to be auctioned here.
Halfway through the auction, still nothing made Lin Chen want to act.
Clearly, the items auctioned earlier were not particularly precious, so those who acted were the ordinary Martial Artists sitting below, and the strong forces in the boxes just watched the excitement without anyone taking action.
At this point, Mu Xue held an exquisite jade bottle, alluringly gazing at the crowd: "Everyone, I believe you are all men who live the edge of danger and inevitable injuries in battle. However, with the medicine bottle in my hand, you won't have to worry."
Listening to Mu Xue's tempting words, everyone brightened up.
"What rare treasure is it in Miss Mu Xue's hands?" asked a big man.
At this moment, everyone stared at the jade bottle in Mu Xue's hand, with surprise in their eyes.
Mu Xue smiled faintly: "Since everyone is so eager, let me unveil the mystery."
Saying this, Mu Xue opened the lid, and a delicate fragrance wafted from the bottle.
"Is this the scent of Blood Restoration Pill?" Someone quickly recognized the pill's scent.
"Tch, I thought it was some miraculous pill, turns out to be Blood Restoration Pill!" Many people disdainfully remarked.
Blood Restoration Pill is not unfamiliar to Martial Artists; almost everyone present had a few.
"Miss Mu Xue, are you joking with us? Auctioning such a pill." People discussed one after another.
Listening to the crowd's disdain, Mu Xue wasn't angry. Instead, she chuckled lightly and said: "What I have in my hand is not an ordinary Blood Restoration Pill, but a top-grade blood-recovery pill."
"Boom!" Mu Xue's words startled everyone present.
A top-grade blood-recovery pill, that is truly legendary, capable of restoring 100% health, and can almost become a Life-saving Pill.
"Miss Mu Xue, are you mistaken? It's said that it's rare to find even one top-grade blood-recovery pill in decades." Another person asked, puzzled.
Mu Xue smiled faintly: "The Blood Restoration Pills in this bottle have been tested by our Pharmacists and confirmed to be top-grade. There are ten in total, with a starting price of 8 million. Whoever bids highest will get them. Don't miss out!"
"Ten pieces!" Listening to Mu Xue, everyone onsite was amazed.
