Wizard Immortality

Chapter 95: Encounter with the Queen of Deep Star | Deep Malice towards Vic

After the auction begins.

One after another, mysterious creations made of precious materials and expensive items appeared on the stage.

The bidding competition at the venue was intense.

In order to get a bottle of magic potion, the bidding parties exchanged sharp words and made sarcastic remarks, which was very lively.

Even the dark room on the second floor was being fought over from time to time.

But Vic was unmoved.

He came to the auction this time just to get a volcanic core. He was not interested in other things.

Wait until more than ten lots are bought one by one.

The volcanic core that Vic wanted to buy finally appeared on the auction table.

This item needs to be obtained from the bottom of the molten magma. Without special witchcraft, it is very difficult to obtain, and it is also a stabilizer used in alchemy.

So the price is extremely high.

As soon as he came on stage, the auctioneer announced the reserve price.

One thousand five hundred soul stones.

Each increase in price must not be less than two hundred.

The auctioneer finished.

The venue fell inexplicably silent. For a moment, no one made any bids and everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Wizards who are able to participate in the Eternal Auction are all people with extraordinary strength and background.

The volcanic core with a base price of 1,500 soul stones is not expensive for them.

But this material can only be used by first-level alchemists.

If you act rashly to fight for it, you are very likely to make enemies with them.

There are disadvantages but no advantages.

The Hanging City and the first-level alchemists from the Krama sect are all prominent and of extraordinary status, and they are in competition with each other.

Although volcanic cores are precious and rare, they have a high opinion of themselves and do not want to be the first to bid, as this would make them appear to be inexperienced, eager for quick success and instant benefits, and thus lower their status.

This leads to a situation where the items are put up for sale but no one is making an offer.

The auctioneer was very experienced and it was obviously not the first time he had encountered such a situation.

He first introduced in detail the origin, specific effects and functions of this thing, and then swept his eyes over a wizard whose identity was hidden under the stage.

The latter understood and shouted out the price.

"Since no one wants the volcanic core, I'll offer two thousand soul stones."

The words fell.

The auctioneer said loudly, "Someone offered 2,000 soul stones. Do you have a higher bid?"

Subsequently.

A voice came from the dark room on the second floor.

"Humph, you want to buy it for 2,000 soul stones? I'll offer 4,000 soul stones."

He just finished speaking.

A sarcastic laugh suddenly came from the dark room next door, saying, "Haha, Chalek, if you are short of money recently, I can lend you soul stones.

You and I both know the value of the volcanic core.

You have the nerve to spend four thousand soul stones?
I'll give you six thousand."

Unlike previous auction items, where the price was increased by one hundred soul stones each time, the financial resources of the alchemists were fully demonstrated at this moment.

After going back and forth for just two bids, the price had already been raised from the reserve price of 1,500 soul stones to 6,000!
Even though the wizards who participated in the auction had extraordinary backgrounds, they couldn't help but be secretly amazed.

"As expected of an alchemist from the Hanging City, he can easily spend thousands of soul stones. His financial resources are amazing."

"I can't even come up with 6,000 soul stones even if I empty my family's savings. I'm so envious."

Vic watched from the dark.

Although the volcanic core is a first-grade material, it is not used up all at once. It can be divided and used after purchase. It is not difficult to understand why the price is extremely high.

He estimated.

To get this material, you will need at least 10,000 soul stones.

So he was not in a hurry to bid.

Wait until the bid reaches a high of 10,000 soul stones.

The other alchemists withdrew and stopped bidding.

Only the two people who made the initial bid were left. They disliked each other and kept raising the price wildly.

"I'll give you 1200."

"I'll give you 1400."

"Knicks! There is no hatred between you and me. You deliberately raised the price today. Are you trying to make me your enemy?!"

The voice in the dark room was already filled with anger, loudly scolding.

But the other party continued to be sarcastic and sneered.

"No grudge? Haha, Chalek, have you forgotten about the last time you sent someone to secretly kill me? It would be fine if I didn't tell you, but you want to deny it?!"

"You were ambushed when you went out, what does that have to do with me? There is no evidence, and your empty words are just bullshit!" "You are looking for death!"

Seeing that both sides were aggressive, the mental pressure was crushing outwards.

At this time.

A woman's soft voice suddenly came from the dark room next to Vic.

"Since the two of you are at an impasse, why don't you give me some face and let me buy it with 11,000 soul stones?

I will reward you handsomely afterwards."

Although I haven't seen you for many years.

But wizards have excellent memories.

Vic frowned slightly, wondering how it could be the voice of the Deep Star Queen.
Both of them are members of the Night Crow Society, and their identities are kept secret from each other, and only Grant and his confidants know.

If we accidentally recognize each other at the auction.

It is disadvantageous to both parties.

Vic simply adjusted the muscles in his throat and changed his voice so that the other party would not recognize him when he made his bid.

but.

This incident also gave him a wake-up call.

Grant has always been very meticulous in his work and it is impossible for him to make such a low-level mistake.

Obviously.

The struggle between the Night Raven Society and the Eternal Chamber of Commerce has reached a white-hot stage.

Someone wants to take advantage of this matter.

Force Grant to step down, and then take advantage of the situation and seize the Chamber of Commerce.

Moreover, most of his confidants have probably been bribed.

About it.

He will not sit idly by when there is a conflict of interest with Vic.

As a member of the Night Crow Society, he had not been there many times in recent years, but every time he had a need, he always gained something.

He won't let go easily.

Afterwards he would look for an opportunity to secretly warn Grant.

at the same time.

In the dark room opposite Vic, a pair of eyes were observing the room where he and the Deep Star Queen were.

This person is no one else.

It was the young wizard who had spent soul stones to instigate Hill and another senior apprentice to fight each other at the entrance of the auction.

This is completely different from the image of a lawless second-generation rich man he shows to others.

Dark room.

This man restrained his cynicism and had a blank expression on his face. He sat on the sofa like a trader, with his eyes slightly narrowed, looking down below.

The viciousness of his mind is far beyond others' imagination.

He had deliberately teased Hill outside before.

The purpose is to test Vic.

As the son of a city councilor of the Hanging City, he had already sent people to investigate Vic's identity and resume thoroughly, and even Hill's affairs were not spared.

The woman who could get Vic's help obviously had a close relationship with him.

but.

After testing at the door, he gave up the idea of making a big fuss about Hill.

In his opinion.

Victor probably had some personal connections with the now-extinct Thorn Flower Family, so he offered his help.

otherwise.

His actions outside the door.

Vic couldn't remain indifferent.

Thinking of this, he felt a sense of boredom in his heart.

Lover, student, descendant.
These are a wizard's weaknesses.

Once he has it in his hands, the matter of the Night Crow Society’s quota will no longer be a matter of whether Vic wants to withdraw or not.

Think of this.

He felt angry.

Grant is a man who will not give in to any soft or hard tactics. The power structure of the Night Crow Society cannot be changed, and even if it is expanded, it will be downward.

Even his request to join the society was rejected.

Humph.

Go against him.

act recklessly.
