Chapter 271: Auction
Chapter 266 – Auction
Knowing that this time would not be so peaceful, Owen looked at the two people sitting across from him somewhat speechlessly.
Although the other party has been trying to hide their nervousness, but still too tender, even the weapon topped up the black robe did not realize, on this level, also do not know where to get the invitation, do not not be stealing the parents, if it is true, then it will be fun.
Not only Owen, even Count Dekra can see that the two have problems.
But both of them didn’t have the intention of meddling, this time to participate in the hidden auction is only to pass the boring time, as for whether it is a serious buy things, or to see someone make a big fuss about the auction, it makes no difference to them.
Just hidden auction exists for so many years, make trouble is a lot of people, but can survive is not much, look at the other side of this deputy has not yet hands on the appearance of weakness, I am afraid that the fun time will not last too long, is not sure of the other side of the origin, if it is not know the sky is high and thick of the adventurers, I am afraid of the pills, if it is some identity background, we have to wait for the other side of the parents to take the money to ransom people.
Four people all the way speechless, and so the car door opened, only to realize that it has arrived at the place.
The place where the hidden auction was held was not in the dark and damp underground, nor in some shabby warehouse, but in a certain nobleman’s rather decent castle.
The main reason for choosing to hold it in the castle was because the secret auction was only for ordinary people, and most of the nobles and a small portion of the squires and knights knew about it.
For the big nobles, even who the organizer was was very clear, because they were participating in it, otherwise do you think they were blind, allowing people to make a lot of money in their sphere of influence.
But there should be a cover up or to have, for example, right now the owner of this castle with a family of old and young out to play, on the surface of the hidden auction things know nothing.
Don’t care if it’s true or not, there’s always a reasonable alibi.
The real situation is to lend the castle to the hidden auction, as a reward, the owner of the castle will get the whole auction a few percent of the profit, which is not a small amount.
Ignoring the two men who hurried into the crowd as soon as they got out of the car, Owen carefully surveyed the surroundings, it was his first time here and he was naturally curious.
Unfortunately, just like what Count Dekra said before, the level of the hidden auction in front of him is really not high, there are still stalls on the open space of the castle, the grade is pulled down at once, but for the first time Owen, there are still quite a lot of things to see.
Count Dekra saw Owen interested in these, afraid that he was embarrassed to let go, so he said hello and separated, waiting for a while the auction began to rejoin.
After Count Dekra left, Owen skipped around the castle’s open space with his hands behind his back.
Even if it is a stall, the things here are not cheap, just not enough to qualify for the auction, but these things are not affordable to ordinary people, so they paid money to the hidden auction to set up a stall here, looking for customers.
Owen looked around, most of them are magic items and materials, there are body protection to kill the enemy, more is to increase the charm or daily necessities, for example, he saw a stall owner is holding a slightly larger than the ring of metal circle, pulling a certain black robe can not cover the bulging stomach of the customer to introduce the circle’s magical magic ability, such as enhancement of the hardness, wear resistance, and elongation and enlargement and other effects.
Said which guest some heart moved, but because of the price, but also on the effect of doubt, did not immediately pay.
The stall owner immediately took out the killer, he pulled out a wilted mushrooms from his arms, but also deliberately shook in front of the guests, look at the guests’ eyes straight fire, almost directly hit people, after all, hit people do not hit the face, scolding people do not reveal the shortcomings of this implies that he is soft, but also said that he is short, the man can stand. This stall owner is estimated to have early experience, rushed to the metal ring to a set of mushrooms, good guys, mushrooms into cocktail mushrooms not to say, but also bang hard, knocking the palm of the hand snapped, the guests immediately what the fire are gone, and decisively shelled out the money.
Seeing this scene is not only Owen, so in no time this stall owner was surrounded by a group of black robed people, presumably have a difficult to say, which there are some women, they are not multiple parts, but for another to buy, it is really well-intentioned.
In addition to these kinds of magic props, there are also ecstasy and other things sell well, a moment of effort to sell out some, the volume are in the hundreds of gold coins or so.
Owen was not interested in these, they were all left over from his play, so he continued to walk forward.
The front is the area of selling slaves, but there is no wooden cage, there is no iron cable, after all, the customers here are people with status, the most focus on security, you put these things out, is not it obvious that their own slaves are not safe.
Instead of a small stage, regardless of male and female races are young and beautiful slaves standing on the stage one by one to try to show their value, twisting waist and shaking crotch, trying to be seen and taken away.
But with Owen’s eyesight, he immediately saw the problem.
These slaves have obviously been cut and reshaped, and their bodies are also sprayed with something similar to ecstasy, coupled with the special lighting around the stage, the most seductive side is completely displayed, if the will is not strong, it is easy to be tempted to pay money to buy.
Only when the effect of the drug subsides, that situation is almost the same as off the beauty, although it is not as bad as carrying a carriage to run away overnight, it is estimated that it will also be nauseated by the light, after all, there is no effect of the drug, the groomed appearance of the body is very easy to see the problem.
This has nothing to do with Owen, a willingness to fight, as for the source of these slaves, he does not care, but also do not care over, after all, even if he became emperor, the situation will not be much better, so just look and do not say anything.
I don’t know how long it took, the stalls in the open space began to withdraw, and the doors of the castle opened, apparently the real auction began.
A mage-like man stood in front of the door under the escort of several black knights and began to check the invitations.
This was not done for fear of an undercover agent mixing in, but to verify identity.
Have identity to have money, have money to participate in the auction, otherwise mixed in a brainwashed no money hard to pretend to be a big brother, the result of things shot down but can not get money, this time even if the auction killed him can not restore the loss.
Money is okay, the key is the impact on the credibility is too big, so there are mages responsible for checking invitations.
Owen was not qualified to take the invitation, but Count Dekra was responsible for guaranteeing it, so not only did he take it, his position was also very forward, and was arranged in the front row near the auction table.
Owen had just sat down when Count Dekra came over with a glass of wine, obviously he had met someone he knew before, but compared to those general friends, it was still Owen who was more important, so as soon as he saw him, he came over.
After a while, the surrounding lights gradually went out, only retaining a beam of light on the auction stage, and the auctioneer in charge of the auction also walked onto the stage with a mask, presiding over the next auction.
