Full-Time Magister: Dark Throne

"The man standing next to me is none other than Qin Zhan, the Cold Hunter King, who just won the title of 'Hunter King' in last year's World Hunter King Selection!"

Cold Hunter King stood on the stage, smiling and nodding to the crowd.

He An, sitting in the audience, was shocked. It turned out that the spirited middle-aged man on the stage was the Cold Hunter King who died in the original work because of his pursuit of the Red Demon!

If you calculate the time, it turns out that he had been dead for less than three years!

Three years... I wonder how much I'll have grown.

If I'm able to help then, I'll lend a hand...

While He An was pondering, the auctioneer on the stage spoke eloquently.

"This item was also provided by Cold Hunter King, and I'm sure everyone will be very interested in it."

The auctioneer clapped his hands, and several staff members pulled back the red curtain in the center of the display stand.

Beneath the curtain lies a specially crafted cage made from a mixture of several unique metals, designed specifically to imprison demons.

Inside the cage, a giant eagle covered in golden feathers stood proudly, showing no fear even in the face of so many mages present, its eyes filled with the pride of a winged bird of prey.

The auctioneer pointed to the giant eagle behind him and introduced it to the crowd:

"This is a young golden-feathered giant eagle from the legendary Penglai Immortal Island."

According to our chief appraiser's professional assessment, this golden-feathered giant eagle possesses the bloodline of a commander-level being. In other words, if it is raised to adulthood, it will undoubtedly become a commander-level demon!

Secondly, the Golden Feathered Giant Eagle is also an excellent flying mount. At the Servant level alone, its flying speed is twice that of the Sky Eagle!

So, its starting price is... 150 million! Each bid must be at least one million higher!

"Now, everyone can begin bidding!"

The auctioneer stepped aside, giving everyone space to carefully observe the golden-feathered giant eagle.

The appearance of the golden-feathered giant eagle caused excitement throughout the entire auction hall!

This is a demon with a commander-level bloodline. If it is raised normally, it will become a commander-level combatant!

It's a rare flying mount, which makes it even rarer!

Who wouldn't want to ride such a raptor and soar freely through the sky?

One hundred and eighty million!

Two hundred million!

Three hundred million!

Despite the starting price being a high 150 million, these nouveau riche still waved large sums of money and argued fiercely.

In the end, this golden-feathered giant eagle was bought by a wealthy summoner from the capital city for a high price of 310 million.

"Next up is a pre-selected item, a top-grade earth-type spirit seed with three times the power."

The auctioneer waved to the audience, and a woman in a red cheongsam with a slit brought the vessel containing the bewitching swamp to the auction stage.

"Is a mere top-grade earth-type spirit seed with three times the power enough to cut in line? Of course not!"

As everyone here should know, some special elemental seeds nurtured by nature possess unique sub-attributes. These elemental seeds are often far more powerful than ordinary elemental seeds!

Seeing that the audience's emotions had been stirred up, the auctioneer stopped in suspense, made a fist, held it flat in front of him, and loudly introduced:

"Solid Rock!"

"Poison Swamp!"

"Bewitchment!"

For each sub-attribute mentioned, the auctioneer would raise a finger.

"A top-tier earth-type spirit seed possessing three sub-attributes—the Bewitching Swamp!"

The auctioneer shook three fingers held up and raised his voice to the crowd below.

The crowd in the hall was in an uproar.

Compared to the rare Golden Feathered Giant Eagle, a top-grade spirit seed that possesses three sub-attributes is a truly rare and precious treasure!

It's already rare and precious enough for a spirit seed to possess two sub-attributes, let alone three!

Especially since this last one is a sub-attribute related to the mind!

"Three sub-attribute top-grade earth-type spirit seeds, Bewitching Swamp, starting bid: 50 million!"

Unfortunately, although this spirit seed possesses as many as three sub-attributes, as a spirit seed, its maximum multiplier is only three times.

Powerful mages look down on it, while weaker mages feel it's not worth it.

It was stuck in a position where it couldn't go up or down, which was quite awkward.

In the end, it could only be sold for 70 million. After deducting the commission and taxes, the remaining profit would be transferred to the account left by He An the next day.

The later auction items weren't particularly impressive; they were mostly ordinary magical artifacts, magical tools, and spirit seeds.

Apart from a few interesting items, the rest were uninteresting, leaving He An with little interest.

The auction is nearing its end, with only three or five items remaining, but they are all top-quality pieces that could be the grand finale!

"Next item: Demon-slaying tool, Nightfall!"

The auctioneer put on a pair of white gloves and drew the long sword from the sheath of the woman in the red cheongsam.

Place the longsword under the light, bring your left index and middle fingers together, and run them along the spine of the sword, creating a glint of light.

With a flick of his finger, the longsword emitted a clear, lingering hum.

"Clang!!!"

After a sword rang out, the young woman took the longsword and placed it flat on the display stand.

"This is an ancient demon-slaying tool unearthed from the ruins of an ancient kingdom. When it was discovered, it was enshrined on an altar. The statue that originally received sacrifices to it had disappeared, leaving only a line of ancient characters beside it:"

At the end of the cycle of time and space, one sees the Lord of Endless and Supreme Darkness.

The auctioneer pointed to the spine of the longsword, where a small section of ancient text was engraved.

"This demon-slaying weapon is called Aredos in ancient times, which translates to: Lord of Boundless Darkness."

Domestic scholars have named it "Nightfall".

According to the legends in the murals of the ruins, this was a longsword forged with the full strength of the nation for an ancient and powerful king, symbolizing his boundless dark power and supreme shadow divine authority!

According to historians, this may be a relic left behind by an ancient archmage of forbidden shadow magic.

The craftsmanship and materials used in this demon-slaying weapon are extremely luxurious; the hilt even appears to be made of monarch-grade material!

After recounting its origins and craftsmanship, the auctioneer let out a sigh.

"Unfortunately, for some unknown reason, no matter how those experts and scholars tested it, this demon-slaying tool could not exert even a fraction of its intended power."

This may be due to the complexity of the forging technique or the damage caused by the passage of time.

Of course, it's also possible to buy it and keep it as a beautiful collectible. Starting bid: 30 million.

When it was time to bid on this demon-slaying weapon, the auction hall was noticeably quieter.

In this world where magic reigns supreme, anything without magic will be greatly diminished in value.

Few people would think of spending a high price to buy an unusable ancient demon-slaying tool as a collectible.

Except for He An.

When the auctioneer took out the demon-slaying weapon, He An had a premonition.

This demon-slaying weapon was forged for him!
