Versatile Mage: Sword of the Stars, Slay All Evil Spirits

Chapter 53: First Encounter with Grand Duke Irene

"The starting price is also 1 billion!" As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, bidding began one after another.

Chen Chen looked at the Yan Jing Yalong on the stage, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes, but it only lasted for a moment.

At this time, the middle-aged man who had previously bid for the Blazing Dragon made another bid. He raised the price by 50 million each time, directly suppressing the momentum of other bidders.

Everyone looked at him sideways, wondering who he was.

As the price continued to rise, gradually, only the middle-aged man and a mysterious man in black robe were left competing.

The black-robed man's voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from an endless abyss, and it was impossible to hear his emotions.

When the price reached 1.8 billion, the middle-aged man's forehead was slightly sweaty, while the man in black robe remained calm.

Finally, the man in black robe called out a high price of 1.9 billion, and the middle-aged man had no choice but to give up.

“This price is really embarrassing.”

Seeing this, Chen Chen no longer had any hope of capturing the dragon beast bred by Grand Duke Irene.

"Is this the last one? Everyone is welcome to come. I'm very grateful." An ethereal and sweet voice came from behind the auction platform.

After hearing the voice, everyone sat up straight, their eyes fixed on the back of the auction table.

A dignified lady with blonde hair, blue eyes and wearing a white dress walked out slowly.

There is an indescribable noble temperament in every gesture, which makes people look sideways.
"Grand Duke Irene!"

Many people sitting in the seats began to stand up and greet respectfully.

"No need for that, everyone please sit down first."

Irene leaned forward a little, her eyes swept across the entire auction hall, and finally stopped on Chen Chen.

That face looked more pure than hers, which was why Irene was attracted to it.

Chen Chen also responded with a look. This British celebrity was quite stylish, at least more interesting than those people in China.

Compared to Leng Qing's strong and domineering style, Grand Duke Irene is more easy-going and quiet.

As for the inside, I don’t know yet.

Irene showed a gentle smile, as if to welcome Chen Chen's arrival.

"Where is Grand Duke Irene looking at?"

"It must be me!"

"Fun."

For a moment, several children of noble families in Chen Chen's direction became excited.

These are obviously fools, but where there are fools there are naturally smart people.

"Who is that pretty boy?"

A nobleman sitting in the front row noticed who Irene was looking at, and his eyes were sparkling.

That was the Grand Duke Irene whom he admired. What pretty boy was worthy of her attention!
……

The dragon beast auction continued, and as Irene appeared, the spotlight began to reveal the Asian dragon coming out behind her.

As it gradually came into view of everyone, it also aroused everyone's curiosity.

The important highlight of this dragon beast auction promotion is the dragon beast bred by Grand Duke Irene.

There is no need to say much about the value of this sign.

The dragon was seen emitting a platinum-colored light all over its body, like a ball of flowing light, and the sacred aura on its wings spread in all directions.

A faint dragon aura emanated, and the pair of platinum-colored dragon horns were obviously thicker and longer than those of the three sub-dragons just now.

Its eyes are like the deep starry sky, and just one glance at them can make people fall into it.

Irene personally introduced to everyone:

“This is a dragon of light. In addition to its superb combat capabilities, its holy power can also purify all dark magics. I will cultivate its potential, and it will definitely reach the monarch level!

So the starting price is 1.5 billion!"

The whole audience was shocked when this statement was made. The price was ridiculously high, but no one doubted that it was not worth it.

After all, having the opportunity to step into the monarch and being able to step into the monarch are two different things.

Many people were eager to make a bid, but the first one to make a bid was the man in black robe.

"Sixteen billion." His voice was still cold.

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and then joined the bidding: "1.7 billion."

Chen Chen folded his arms across his chest and watched quietly.

He was determined to get this Asian dragon, but he didn't have enough financial resources, so he asked Lingling to contact Leng Qing and the people in Songcheng to get some money.

Now let the bullets fly for a while.

The bidding became increasingly fierce, and the price quickly rose to 2 billion.

At this point, most people are no longer able to fight.

The only people left on the field were the man in black robe, the middle-aged man and a red-haired woman who suddenly appeared.

"Twenty-one billion." The red-haired woman was obviously very interested in this light dragon.

"Humph!" The man in black robe snorted coldly: "Twenty two hundred million."

"Twenty three hundred million." The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and shouted.

"Two and a half billion, plus a mineral vein worth two hundred million!" The red-haired woman clapped her hands.

"Crazy woman!" The man in black robe and the middle-aged man cursed inwardly.

In fact, when the value of the Light Dragon exceeds 3 billion, it is greatly reduced. After all, it is just a cub and it takes a lot of cost to cultivate it into an adult.

And three billion is enough to hire many super-class wizards.

Just when everyone thought that the auction was about to come to an end.

Chen Chen, who had been silent the whole time, slowly raised the sign: "Three billion."

This action shocked the whole audience, and everyone's eyes were cast on him.

Even Grand Duke Irene looked at Chen Chen, who had an outstanding temperament, with some surprise.

Chen Chen responded to everyone's gazes without changing his expression, and at this moment a panting little figure appeared beside him.

It was Lingling. She got a large sum of money in just a few minutes and was exhausted and out of breath.

The red-haired woman frowned upon hearing this, a trace of unwillingness flashed in her eyes, "3.1 billion!"

She gritted her teeth and raised the price, but this number was obviously the limit.

Chen Chen just smiled and raised his sign again, "3.5 billion."

Including what Lingling got, he now has almost 5 billion. He doesn't believe that he can't get it!
This number is like a huge rock falling into the water, causing a thousand waves.

Everyone couldn't help but speculate about Chen Chen's identity. Anyone who could come up with so much money so easily must be someone important.

The man in black robe gave Chen Chen a sinister look, then snorted coldly and gave up the bidding.

The middle-aged man also shook his head helplessly.

At this time, the red-haired woman's face turned red and white, and finally she could only put down the sign angrily.

Grand Duke Irene smiled and announced, "Congratulations to this gentleman for successfully bidding for the Bright Dragon."

Chen Chen slowly walked up to the stage and handed over this big thing worth 3.5 billion.
When Chen Chen approached the Bright Dragon, the little guy actually rubbed his hand affectionately.

Grand Duke Irene smiled upon seeing this and said, "It seems that it likes you very much."

Chen Chen responded with a smile, stretched out his hand and scratched Yalong's neck, but his heart was as clear as a mirror.

He has one third of the purest red dragon blood and the red dragon heart in his body, any one of which is of true dragon level.

The dragon clan has always respected bloodline. Chen Chen has a more noble bloodline, so the Light Dragon naturally only dares to show goodwill.
