Don't confiscate my citizenship

Lan Qi felt that the premium of more than 10,000 pounds was still too much, mainly because of the collection value.

Converted into the simplest method of measuring purchasing power, ten thousand pounds can buy 30 million bottles of mineral water.

As the auction progressed, the auctioneer's voice echoed in the venue.

Whenever a work of art is auctioned, there will be a burst of discussion in the auction hall, and occasionally there will be cheers and applause when extremely high-priced items are sold.

In addition, outside the door of the hall stood professional art collectors to ordinary curious reporters. They were either crouching or standing, focusing on recording everything that might become the content of reports through the small glass window of the door.

"Okay, distinguished guests, now comes the main event."

The carefully arranged auction table was still the focus of the audience. The auctioneer stood on it, wearing a dark suit and holding a small silver gavel symbolizing authority.

His fast-paced speech immediately focused all eyes on him.

It was like a wonderful solo that pushed the atmosphere of the entire venue to a climax.

Immediately afterwards, a demon servant was brought onto the stage.

"Celestia, a sixth-level demon, has a well-trained all-round scouting function. She was the former captain of the 35th Brigade Pioneer Exploration Force of the Sixth Army of the Demon King. After surrendering, in order to avoid the death penalty, she chose to sign a three hundred Fifty-five years of servant contract, that is to say, she currently has 231 years left in her legal contract.”

The demon servant introduced by the auctioneer has a light blue complexion that is different from humans. Her pupils are as deep as the night sky, and her long ears tremble slightly.

Despite the adverse situation, she maintained a calm demeanor.

As the auctioneer finished introducing the special abilities and identity background of this demon servant, the atmosphere in the venue became more tense. Many rich people seemed to want her.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Celestia not only looks outstanding as a servant, but also possesses extraordinary combat power that can double the strength of any noble family."

The atmosphere in the venue was ignited, and the auctioneer once again attracted the attention of the distinguished guests with his charismatic voice.

“What’s even more unbelievable is that once she becomes your servant, she will protect you and your family for the rest of your life.

He cleared his throat and continued.

offstage.

Thalia looked away, no longer wanting to focus on the stage.

Her eyes could not be seen clearly under her bangs, as if they were covered by shadows.

"..."

Lan Qi looked at Thalia beside him and said nothing.

He could probably understand how Talia felt as a subjugated princess seeing her people being auctioned off.

At the same time, she couldn't argue, because the demons who would be auctioned did not complain, and she understood this very well.

On the stage, the auctioneer tapped the podium with a silver auction hammer, announcing that the auction was about to begin.

Many wealthy businessmen immediately started bidding, each hoping to take home this powerful sixth-level demon servant.

The number of bids rose rapidly, from several thousand to tens of thousands in less than half a minute, and every increase in price was accompanied by surprised murmurs from the audience.

This bidding is not only a display of wealth, but also a fight for power and status.

A sixth-rank servant would be a strong contender even if he entered the Flower City Holy Grail Familiar Contest. Moreover, as a true former Demon King, Celestia had combat experience and practical ability beyond imagination.

The expressions of the participants are mixed with anticipation and calculation, and they are observing the strong competitors from time to time.

The demon stood quietly on the stage, with no fear in her eyes, as if she had seen through the noise and vanity.

"55000 pounds."

In the end, when a blond nobleman wearing a formal dress and sitting in the VIP stand on the second floor quoted the final bid with an astronomical sum, everyone in the audience stopped bidding.

The auctioneer made the final decision with a hammer, and the demon servant just bowed her head slightly and accepted her new fate.

"Meow meow……"

Boss Cat has never seen so much money in his life.

It was dumbfounded.

"The main reason why she sells for such a high price is because of her strong abilities and long work contract."

Not considering Celestia's death midway and the risk of her harming her master, this is equivalent to a long-term employment contract of more than two hundred years.

In addition, Celestia's contract also clearly states that she cannot be forced or harmed, that the work content must be legal, and that she should be given basic living care, a meager legal minimum salary, and normal holidays.

"Part of the reason is because she looks very good. The price of beautiful demons in the auction house will often double."

Lan Qi explained to the cat boss.

"..."

Talia's eyes immediately locked on Lan Qi.

"Leave aside the strength and just talk about the performance, she must be the best poet in the world. No demon can surpass her peerless appearance."

Lanci looked at Thalia and said.

Thalia looked away.

The powerful and unparalleled beauty of the crazy love demon is indeed the most perfect.

"Meow meow."

Boss Cat felt that these two people were starting again.

"Speaking of which, if the vampires are captured and sold, will there be more success... The high-low signing will start with fifty thousand years..."

Lan Qi seemed to suddenly think of something and muttered to himself.

"Meow meow!"

Just by listening to Lan Qi speak, Boss Cat could already imagine Xiubao kneeling in front of the statue of the goddess and sobbing.

More than half an hour flew by while they were chatting and watching the show.

Occasionally there are a few interesting auction items, and after a while there are VIPs entering, or customers who feel they have lost interest and leave halfway.

Lan Qi occasionally saw something he wanted to buy, but thought about it and decided not to.

For example, [Shadow Petal] is a mysterious plant that is said to grow on the edge of the void. It can temporarily allow the user to blend into the shadows, achieving a short-term invisibility effect, covert operations, assassin missions, or highly confidential exploration. Use it for great love. It would be pretty good for a poet to have a skin.

There is also the [Traveler's Compass], an antique compass magic device that allows the holder to not get lost no matter where he is.

You might come across something weird every week, and you might not be able to buy it all if you really want to.

On the stage.

The auctioneer paused and glanced at the crowd in the audience.

"Next, there is another product contract for a demon servant. Maybe her starting price is still high - but remember, the chance to obtain a legend will never be too expensive."

As the auctioneer finished speaking, the entire auction hall became lively again.

The distinguished guests exchanged words and looks with each other, waiting to appear.

Soon, a woman who looked like a demon boy with pale skin, smooth silver hair, and a thin body was brought up.

"Alvin, originally belonged to the logistics force of the Ninth Army. Although she is only a second-level demon and is not a fighting demon, she has multiple functions such as housekeeper, magic chef, and gardener, and can provide your home with a comprehensive quality of luxurious life. Guaranteed, her contract has 950 years left, and the starting price is pounds. Let us see who will be her new owner now!”

offstage.

Boss Cat's eyes suddenly brightened when he read her message.

Although his cooking skills are far inferior to those of Miss Lissansi whom he met on the airship, his rich life functions make the cat boss think it is worthwhile to hire such a chef.

"She is stronger than Pranay!"

Boss Cat praised.

It saw that although Pranay never made any mistakes at work, most of the time he just stood behind the bar and wiped glasses.

And Pranay seems to be very weak, and even it cannot feel the magic power of Pranay.

"Uh."

Lan Qi felt that Boss Cat might really have been optimized by the restaurant. He didn't realize how efficient Pranai was at work. It was just that Pranai was relatively low-key and didn't seem to be working.

Often useless bosses don't realize that the employees who are the real pillars of the company seem to be idle.

If you take an ordinary demon back and discover the true identity of the big demon in the store, you may be frightened and faint.

"1100 pounds."

Lanci held up the sign.

The cat boss was slightly interested in this demon with cooking skills. Lanqi called out a price for him, but it was quickly surpassed.

"Are you still filming? Boss Cat."

Lanci watched the price rise to 1500 pounds in a short while.

If it really costs 2000 pounds, it's actually quite a loss. It's purely because this demon looks pretty good that other people will bid with them.

"Meow, let's take the photo. The premium doesn't matter. It's a long-term contract anyway."

Boss Cat felt a little distressed.

"1550 pounds."

Lan Qi raised his sign again.

"2000 pounds."

The new bids coming from high places immediately made the auctioneer on the stage smile, while Lan Qi was slightly stunned.

"What did Boss Cat say?"

Lan Qi lowered his head and asked the little black cat for his opinion.

"Try again."

Boss Cat said reluctantly.

"2050 pounds."

Lan Qi raised his sign.

"2500 pounds."

Along with a slightly mocking voice, a voice came from above again.

Boss Cat stopped talking this time, and Lan Qi also put down his sign.
