Chapter 377 Auction begins
Finnie Cotton brought Flynn to a room on the fourth floor.
This is an auction room that is much smaller than the auction venue of the Great Weed Auction House. There is a semicircular auction table on the front side, and there are one seat after another on the back side.
There are only more than one hundred seats in total, and more than half of them are already full at this time.
There are men and women, wearing high-end custom-made clothes, obviously of high status.
Finnie Cotton led the way and brought Flynn straight to the front. Flynn was asked to sit down in the first row with sofas and long tables, obviously reserved for dignified people.
Seeing that Flynn was led by Fenny Cotton himself, and was invited to sit down in the first row, some people were thoughtful, while others whispered to the people next to them with puzzled faces.
After inquiring about Flynn's identity, his face was full of surprise and bewilderment.
"Ferring, when did you come back?"
Ferring just sat down when someone shouted to him from the side.
He looked sideways, and saw a young woman with aqua blue hair, it was Ivy.
"Just came back today."
Flynn said with a smile.
"Director Sox, I thought you wouldn't come."
Beside Ivy, sitting a majestic middle-aged man, is Ivy's father, Earl Wilton Freeman.
Each golden invitation letter can bring one person to the auction. The one who received the invitation letter should be Earl Freeman, and Ivy should be brought by Earl Freeman.
"Seeing the invitation letter, I realized that there was still time, so I came here."
Flynn said.
"Wait a minute, are you free? If you are free, please come to Freeman's Villa as a guest."
Earl Freeman said with enthusiasm.
After first learning from Ivy that Flynn has a stronger talent than her, he realized Flynn's potential and came up with the idea of ??making friends with Flynn.
Although he already overestimated Flynn's talent, he still didn't expect that Flynn would become the deputy director of the Conston City Security Bureau so soon.
Moreover, with the identity of an extraordinary seed, as long as he does not fall halfway, he is destined to become one of the most noble figures in the Security Bureau and even the Kingdom of Heidelberg in the future.
"Then I will interrupt later."
Ferring really had nothing urgent to do next, so he agreed.
"This is Flynn Sox..."
Sitting next to the front row, Viscount Gorek cast a dreadful glance at Flynn, who was sitting in the first row and was talking with Earl Freeman.
Last year, Miss Lindy of the Duke of Harrowen's family personally stood up for Flynn Sox, causing him to lose face in the aristocratic circle of Conston City.
Following the investigation, it was found that Flynn Sox not only had a good relationship with Miss Lindy, but also had a good relationship with the two direct descendants of the Earl Freeman family.
This made him puzzled, why the other party with an ordinary background had friendship with Miss Lindy and two direct descendants of the Freeman family with a huge difference in status, and the friendship was not shallow.
It wasn't until a few months ago that Flynn Sox became the deputy director of the Conston City Security Bureau that he realized it.
The reason is that Flynn Sox is a mystic of the Security Bureau, and he is a very talented one. This can be inferred from the fact that the other party has become the deputy director of the Constant City Security Bureau at a young age.
"I hope there will be no trouble today."
Viscount Goleck frowned.
In order to gain the attachment of the Moore family, he offended Flynn Sox.
Although he later apologized, it was due to pressure from the Harlowin family.
Taking this as a shame, he just put on a show and didn't show up in person.
This made him worry unavoidably, whether Flynn Sox would be secretly dissatisfied with this.
Without waiting too long, the auction started, and a man with a braided chin beard walked onto the auction stage.
"Thank you for coming to this auction. I am Carl Edmund, the auctioneer for this auction."
"A total of 58 items have been prepared for this auction, each of which is a rare boutique."
"I believe that you can't wait, then we will start the auction now, please invite the first lot."
As soon as Carl Edmund finished speaking, a young woman in a standard long skirt carried a tray, walked up to the semi-circular auction stage, and placed the tray on the auction table.
Carl Edmund took out the first lot from the tray. It was an object shaped like a candle, more than ten centimeters long and white in color.
"This is an inexhaustible candle. Of course, its characteristics are not limited to this. Its name is Lie Candle, which is a type I alchemy item. After it is lit, as long as someone lies, it will go out."
"The people present are all well-known people, and they have many servants or employees. How can you tell if they have deceived you? This alchemy item can help you."
"The starting price is 1,000 gold pounds, and the auction starts now."
Hearing Carl Edmund's description, many people were moved.
Those who can come here must have servants or employees under them. An alchemy item that can protect them from being deceived by their subordinates is obviously a very practical alchemy item.
Hearing Carl Edmund say "start the auction", even if someone makes a bid.
"1200 gold pounds."
"1500 gold pounds."
"1600 gold pounds."
…
"3000 gold pounds."
The price climbed all the way, and finally, this lot was bought by a baron at a price of 3,000 gold pounds.
The first lot was removed, the handover procedure will be carried out after the auction, and the second lot was put on the auction stage.
Carl Edmund took the second lot out of the tray and showed it to everyone, and everyone immediately saw a ring inlaid with red gemstones that looked quite beautiful.
"This is an alchemy item that can save lives at a critical moment. It's called the Vampiric Ring."
"When the wound is bleeding, use this ring, the bleeding of the wound will stop, and the injured will have enough time to go to the hospital for stitching and treatment of the wound."
"If you lose money, you can make it again, but if you lose your life, you really lose it. I believe you all know the value of such an alchemy item."
"The starting price is 1,200 gold pounds. The auction is now open."
Carl Edmund is very good at grasping the psychology of bidders and guiding the bidders' desire to buy. As soon as his words fell, someone called out for a price.
In the end, this alchemy item called the Vampiric Ring was bought by a wealthy businessman.
One after another, alchemy items were auctioned off, and most of the buyers were those at the back.
Those in the first and second rows had no bids. Flynn hadn’t come across any alchemy items that could replace the Fang of Madness, while the others were rich and didn’t care about alchemy items that only reached Type I.
"The forty-fifth alchemy item, a Type 2 alchemy item strengthening gem."
Carl Edmund took a white gem the size of a pigeon egg out of the tray and showed it to everyone.
"The ability of strengthening gems is strengthening. It is an alchemy item that can strengthen and bless the body, making a certain aspect of the body temporarily stronger."
"The objects to be strengthened include strength, speed, defense, smell, hearing, and vision."
"One alchemy item can be blessed with strength, speed, defense, smell, hearing, and vision. To a certain extent, this is an alchemy item with multiple extraordinary abilities."
"In addition, this alchemy item is the top among Type II."
"If it is strengthened, it will have the power comparable to that of a six-ring mystic who practices the secret art destroyer."
"If you strengthen your sense of smell, you will have a sense of smell that is comparable to that of a six-ring mystic practicing secret art hunting."
…
After hearing Carl Edmund's description, many people became emotional, including Flynn.
Judging from the description, this is an alchemy item that is very suitable to replace the Fang of Madness.
But whether it matches Carl Edmund's description, you need to confirm it yourself.
He immediately used his appraisal eye to check the introduction to this alchemy item.
Type: Alchemy Item
Name: Enhanced Gemstone
Grade: Type II
Extraordinary ability:
Possesses a special ability to strengthen, which can strengthen the body of the holder. The strengthening objects include strength, speed, defense, smell, hearing, and vision.
Cannot be strengthened at the same time, only one of them can be selected, and the strengthening effect reaches the level of six rings.
"As described, it is an alchemy item that is very suitable to replace the Fang of Madness."
Felin closed his appraisal eye, and the idea of ??buying it became stronger in his heart.
It was the right time to come to the auction this time. It was indeed for him to meet an alchemy item suitable for replacing the Fang of Madness.
Of course, for such an alchemy item, the final transaction price may not be low, and I hope that my current savings are enough to bid for it.
"The auction is now starting, with a starting price of 10,000 gold pounds."
Carl Edmund smiled and looked at the fiery gazes below the stage, and said.
"12,000 gold pounds."
A tall man quoted.
He comes from a medium-sized occult organization, and is the person in charge of this medium-sized occult organization in Constant.
"14,000 gold pounds."
A man with two small beards quoted.
He is a viscount of a viscount family. Although the family is not as famous as the Gorek family, it is quite wealthy.
"20,000 gold pounds."
Viscount Goleck quoted.
"22,000 gold pounds."
Flynn also quoted.
"23,000 gold pounds."
"24,000 gold pounds."
…
"30,000 gold pounds."
The price rose rapidly, and soon reached 30,000.
Thirty thousand gold pounds, this price has reached the limit of most type II alchemy items.
Only a few Type II alchemy items with extremely special extraordinary abilities can have a higher price than this.
At this time, there were fewer people participating in the auction, leaving only Flynn, Viscount Gleck, and the tall man who made the original bid.
"33,000 gold pounds."
The tall and tall man hesitated for a moment before making a quotation.
"34,000 gold pounds."
Flynn Quick Quote.
"35,000 gold pounds."
Viscount Goleck quoted.
"36,000 gold pounds."
The tall man didn't make any more offers, obviously giving up. Flynn was about to reach his limit, but he continued to make offers.
The value of such an alchemy item in his hands will be far greater than its own value. As long as the money is enough, he will not give it up.
"37,000 gold pounds."
Viscount Goleck glanced at Flynn, and couldn't help frowning.
After he participated in the bidding, Flynn Sox participated in the auction, and now he has become his only competitor, which made him a little suspicious that Flynn Sox was targeting him.
"38,000 gold pounds."
Ferring made another offer without any hesitation.
"39,000 gold pounds."
Viscount Goleck gritted his teeth and made a quotation.
Although the Gorek family has considerable assets, the key is to see whether it is worth it. It is already not worthwhile to buy a Type II alchemy item with no special ability for 39,000 gold pounds.
