my age of magic

Chapter 758 258. Reverse Auction

I don't know when it started to drizzle in the sky. The rain and mist that drifted around with the wind, sticking to the body, will soon make the clothes on the body very wet, and even the hair will be covered by the thick water. The fog was stained into strands, and Kalantso ordered the orc warriors to hastily put away the leather hanging in the yard.

Under the cover of rain and fog, the magic wall lamps on both sides of the street emitted dim and yellow lights.

Watching the two of them slowly disappearing at the end of the quiet alley, I thought: No matter what, Brandon and Felix finally relaxed their brows, to those nobles who entrusted them to come to find out the news out of friendship , They should be able to give you a more satisfactory answer.

Kalancuo took off his hard leather bust and wore only a linen vest with off-the-shoulder sleeves. He bent over and spread a dry quilt on the wooden bed in the bedroom.

I don't know what kind of agreement she and Katerina have. It seems that the two of them have a silent understanding that they will never appear in front of me at the same time in private. They are responsible for taking care of my daily life, but they have their own perform their duties.

Sitting on the chair by the window, I suddenly thought of Cavalier Disraeli, and I didn't know how he was feeling at this moment.

Sister Guoguo's water elemental spirit is dancing happily in the courtyard. Although she has not awakened, she is growing faster and faster, and her learning ability is getting stronger and stronger. I am worried that some of her Tian suddenly awakened, possessed elementary wisdom, and then erased the memory fragments in the soul deep in the body, that is the last thing I want to see.

However, now I can only watch her keep growing in front of me, but I can't do anything.

Thinking of these things on the plane of Yero, it is considered to be coming to an end, but I don't know what kind of reward the Duke will give me.

According to Qige and I's plan, of course we want to use these meritorious deeds to exchange for a higher title, at least to become an earl, so that we are eligible to compete fairly with the Prince of Wales, otherwise with my current status, if the Prince of Wales knows I am his rival in love, and he only needs to use his identity and the privileges of the upper nobles of the Green Empire over the lower nobles to play tricks on me.

But wanting to become an earl is not an easy task. Not only do you need to have enough meritorious service, but you also need to have land that is equivalent to the earl's status. At least a manor as big as Duke Zimmerman is required, and To have a private domain the size of a small town, you can have a team of cavalry consisting of followers and retinues.

It can be said that the earl is like the mayor of the town, but the power he can exercise is much larger than that of the town, just like the emperor of a small town, he can also legally establish his own army.

Perhaps the feats we have achieved on the Hierro plane are enough for me to be promoted to an earl, but I don't have so many private lands. Originally, these lands required me to bring my followers to some lands that were still burning with war. On the fertile plane, through fighting one after another, one-third of the new territory opened up will be handed over to the real owner of the plane, the Duke of Samoyed, and the other three will be handed over to His Majesty the Emperor of the Green Empire, Charles the Great. One, and the rest belong to the Blazers themselves.

Obviously I don't have time to fight around these rich planes, but I need a piece of land of my own, only in this way can I become a veritable earl.

So everything Qige and I did today was a bait for the nobles of Tanton City. We wanted those fish to chase after the fishy smell. Obviously, we have a perfect first step. start.

Kalancuo put both hands on my shoulders, pinching my stiff back, and the hair on her head rubbed against my face, feeling itchy at this moment.With her by my side, I can relax. People who have never seen her fight on the battlefield will never know what kind of explosive power her arms possess.Recently, I found that she has become more and more feminine. Her gentle, considerate, and meticulous care makes it hard for me to think that a female beast warrior can do these things.

I just heard her say: "Should I sleep for a while? Katerina just said that Miss Qige still needs to prepare for two hours. The ice-attribute magic power contained in the winter thorn grass is extremely unstable. The configuration of Luoxue ink appears A little trouble!"

For Qige, a young scholar of herbalism and magic who can gain a foothold in the Imperial Magic Research Institute, there will be no small troubles in preparing simple magic ink. They have completely reached the expert level in controlling the attributes of magic herbs. level.

If Qiger had made Katerina come here to inform us of this incident, then what happened should never be a small trouble.Thinking of this, I felt chills running down my spine, and I didn't know what kind of tricks Qige was playing in Luoxue ink.

Although I was a little apprehensive, I could only stabilize Kalancuo's emotions and said to her: "It's okay, first help me get the peeled skins, we need to quickly cut them into one-foot-square blank magic paper, don't you Knowing Qiger, she works like a madman, and by the time she says she's ready, we're trying to trim these swamp crocodiles, and it's too late."

Of course, Kalancuo obeyed me. Hearing what I said, he hurriedly went to the drying rack outside to bring in some crocodile skins that had not been completely dried, and spread them on the writing table.

It was pitch black outside the window, and the snoring of orc warriors came from the side room.

Karan reached out by mistake and took off the lampshade of the magic desk lamp on the writing table to make the light in the room brighter. The soft light reflected on her wheat-colored smooth skin like satin, with a delicate luster. Her face A faint maternal radiance emerged, and those eyes were full of tenderness.

At this moment, I actually seemed to resonate with her in my soul. We seemed to build a bridge between our hearts. I clearly felt what she was thinking, and she also opened her eyes wide in horror. I looked over, as if something incredible had happened.

What came out of her was the deep miss and concern for little Ella, which made me realize that we have been away from the imperial capital for at least a month, and we just took a little half-orc girl who never left her mother, from here It's a bit too irresponsible to bring her out of the orc village and then leave her alone in the imperial capital.

Miss Qi didn't make us wait too long. The first bottle of Xueluo ink sent was a bottle of ink overflowing from ice-type magic elements. When I inserted the magic engraving pen into the ink bottle, I could clearly feel it. When I entered the ink bottle, the sound of the nib being frozen, I quickly injected a little magic power to turn the Luoxue ink in the ink bottle into a liquid state, took a deep breath, and held the magic engraving pen like a snake dancing with a dragon. On the skin of the swamp giant crocodile like a cicada's wing, along the traces of the dark lines, magic pattern circles were quickly drawn.

Those magic lines appeared in front of me one by one. I had to keep outputting magic power to keep the ink on the nib from freezing into ice, and to maintain a stable output of magic power. I had to guide those inks into the crocodile-skin magic paper. The "Frost Nova" magic scroll gradually appeared in front of me, and there was an extremely cold breath in those lines.

I don't know what method Qige used to stimulate all the ice attribute mana of the winter thorn grass.

Not long after, a slightly enhanced version of the 'Frost Nova' scroll was successfully drawn, and then the scroll was skillfully tied up with Malan grass leaves. Such an ice-attributed scroll drawn from water-type monster leather has good magic properties. Well, this magic paper made of water-attribute monster leather is more powerful than ordinary magic paper, and the ink used has been improved. This magic scroll is full of strong ice-attribute magic.

Even if I don't unfold it, I know that this is a very perfect 'Frost Nova' scroll, and this scroll is extremely light, only the thickness of a thumb, just like the thinnest scroll.

This night, I was almost rushing to make this kind of magic scroll.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Miss Qi waited for the black eye to come to my room, took a look at me, and then took Katerina, who was also dozing off, back to her room to catch up on sleep. Instead, I continued to concentrate on drawing the magic scroll.

……

When I woke up, it was already afternoon.

I sat up from the bed drowsily, and there was a loud noise from the yard. I jumped onto the floor with bare feet, ran to the window, pushed open the stained glass window, and leaned out to look outside. .

I saw that the yard was full of people. To be precise, the long wooden chairs should be full of nobles from the city. These nobles had different expressions, some with satisfaction, and some with Deeply remorseful, some people's eyes are full of anticipation, some people's foreheads are beaded with sweat, and their faces are full of anxiety.

These people were dressed in aristocratic dresses and gathered in the courtyard. For a while, the noise in the courtyard was like a vegetable market. Those voices reached my ears, which made me feel a little annoyed, but when Qige standing in front of the railing Hearing the sound of the window, he looked back and saw that I woke up, and immediately turned to me happily and said, "Oh, Ji Jia, you woke up at a bad time, our auction will end soon."

I was a little sleepy yet, so I asked Qige in a daze: "Auction? What are we going to auction? Aren't we going to use some black magic crystals to buy some magic materials we need?"

Qige narrowed her eyes and explained to me: "So what we are going to auction is the Black Magic Crystal! As for what they want to buy, as long as it is not gold coins and silver coins, anything else is fine. What about crystal-equivalent commodities, isn’t it interesting?”

"This is really a unique auction!" I smiled at Qige, then closed the window casually, quickly put on my magic robe, and appeared in the yard.

Qige, who lost the shackles of traditional etiquette, began to do whatever she wanted, and she always had some new ideas of her own.

Pushing open the door and walking out, I saw a dozen orc warriors wearing leather armor maintaining law and order around the yard, but their role is basically for decoration, they are more like bronze statues, here Beside the stone pillar remained motionless, with a serious expression, staring at all the people in the yard with big cloudy eyes.

Kalancuo and Katerina were beside the cargo pile, arranging the various magic sealing boxes that were piled up like hills and filled with magic materials.

There are many kinds of these magic materials, but after careful screening by Takama and Kalancuo, they were divided into several categories and placed casually under their own roof.Of course, after they opened the box and checked the magic materials inside, the most harvested were the leather of the swamp giant crocodile and the magic herb winterthorn. These two things can almost be regarded as special products of Trum.

These magic items are also mixed with some so-called high-quality magic materials. For example, I happened to see that Kalancuo found a fist-sized piece of fine gold in a magic sealing box, and found five pieces of gold in a very heavy magic sealing box. A one-foot-square metal rune plate made of mithril, and even a box containing a golden ginseng was turned out.

I was a little dumbfounded, and I don't know how many black magic crystals Qige used in exchange for so many magic materials, but it seems that Qige doesn't have too many black magic crystals in his hand. Most of the black magic crystals are currently stored in my In the magic pocket.

Katerina was wearing a long white dress, standing in front of an auction table at the door, and then placed five black magic crystals on the table from a tray.

She was smiling in front of everyone, as if a warm spring breeze was blowing on her face. She smiled at the impatient nobles in the yard, and then said: "The following group of black magic crystals , a total of five yuan, the same category is not limited, as long as it is a rare magic material, everyone has a chance, please write the magic material you want to exchange with us on the parchment, and after 1 minute, I will let the waiter Get the parchment back."

Katerina is very beautiful, and her voice is very soft, so I heard her say to the nobles slowly: "Everyone, I will choose a piece of parchment that I think best meets our current needs. As the successful target of this transaction, we will publicly share the exchange materials written on this parchment, and publicly announce the name and quantity of the materials we exchanged during this transaction."

Among the many nobles in the audience, some were happy and some were sad. After hearing Katerina finished speaking, almost half of the nobles began to bow their heads and write on the parchment.

Afterwards, Takama and Kalancuo became waiters who collected the parchment notes, gathered all the notes written by the nobles who wanted to trade the black magic crystal, and finally sent them to Qige for her to decide who to choose.

At this time, Qige saw me walking out of the room, and hurriedly called me over to choose the transaction party with her.
