Linda frowned and looked at the former with displeasure.

She was a woman about 1.6 meters tall, with a well-proportioned figure and a broad chest that held up the wide black robe.

The other person was wearing a calico cat mask on his face, and the eyes under the mask were cold and intimidating, like a ruthless predator.

Linda vigilantly reached for the blue sword he had temporarily carried at his waist. Being stared at by this woman, alarm bells rang in his heart and the hairs all over his body stood up.

Although he knew that this was an auction with strict rules that prohibited anyone from taking action, he still felt dangerous as if he was being targeted by a venomous snake.

The woman chuckled, withdrew her gaze, continued walking forward, and disappeared into the depths of the corridor.

The oppressive feeling in the chest also dissipated.

Linda touched his forehead with lingering fear, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on it.

Star level adventurer?

Linda felt a sense of familiarity from the other person's breath, as if he had met him somewhere before.

But when I think back to the star-level adventurers I know, there are no women among them.

What did that low laugh mean... Linda felt confused and couldn't help but secretly be on his guard.

There are no simple people invited to this auction.

Not limited to Baige City, adventurers from nearby Hongtao City and Nanyan City may also come here.

Linda's level of 16 is considered outstanding, but in this auction, there are many adventurers who are level 20.

His strength is only average compared to this.

I glanced at the number on my invitation letter: 412, the twelfth seat in the fourth row.

Linda continued walking down and came to a dimly lit meeting room.

Independent sofas are arranged in an arch shape around the auction table.

There are five rows in total.

The position of each row is very particular.

The one sitting in the front row is quite powerful.

Linda was in the first row and spotted the cat-masked woman who had just bumped into him.

The other party looked forward and seemed not to have seen him coming.

Everyone in the venue was wearing black robes and various masks and was quiet.

In the row in front of Linda, at seat 311, there was a petite person in a black robe wearing a funny clown mask, who stared at him for a long time.

When he looked back, the other person immediately looked away.

'acquaintance?'

Linda thought strangely.

……

The auction officially begins.

The auctioneer on the stage was a hot woman wearing a golden off-shoulder long dress.

Wearing a mask that only covers half of her face, her bright red lips exude strong temptation under the dim light.

One by one, the auction items appeared on the stage.

Linda made bids one after another.

I bought a level 18 earth staff, a level 19 bra, and a level 18 pair of pants.

The quality is all purple and rare, and the total cost is 5 gold coins.

These are prepared for Monica. After wearing them, Monica's magic attack is estimated to exceed 900.

The standard for breaking through the defense of the rare BOSS Black-Armored Crab General is 500 attacks, and Monica has far exceeded that.

Linda's own attack without a main weapon was 563, barely breaking the defense line.

Considering the resistance of monsters like the killer crab to poison, his attack should be at least 700.

"Next, we have our 168th lot, which is also an item that the appraiser has named 'extremely valuable'. Please prepare your gold coins~"

The charming auctioneer named Mei Si twisted her waist and took a long golden box from the waiter.

The long box was opened, revealing a magic sword wrapped in soft white silk.

A dazzling orange light was released from it.

The sword is two fingers wide and engraved with complicated magic runes. One side is a blade and the other side is serrated. It is about one meter and two meters long. A sapphire like a cat's eye is inlaid in the black hilt.

When the long sword was taken out of the wooden box, everyone seemed to hear the sound of sea waves in the venue, and schools of fish passing by!

At this moment, even the most vulgar orc shifted his gaze from the figure of auctioneer Mei Si to the long sword.

Some people simply hold their license plates in their hands, ready to raise them at any time.

A weapon that is extremely top-notch even among orange equipment!

Every adventurer's eyes were lit up with passion, just like a hungry beggar looking at delicacies, or an orc in heat holding the elf lady's hand... ready to make a bid impatiently!

Linda and No. 311 in front of him were also attracted by the blue magic sword.

The graceful and slender sword body and the rough serrations are cleverly integrated.

This weapon is extremely collectible just by its appearance.

Coupled with its strong magical aura, there is no doubt that a bloody bidding war is about to unfold.

Miss Mei Si was very satisfied with everyone's fiery gazes. Her fingers touched down along the blade of the magic sword as if she was caressing her lover's chest.

Many adventurers watched with dry mouths and drooling.

"Weapon, [Azure Sword], the appraiser estimated it to be level 15, orange rare quality, increases damage to aquatic monsters by 40%, increases strength by 300 points."

After saying this, Mei Si looked at the people in the audience with a smile.

With their vision, they naturally understand the value of this equipment.

Ordinary level 15 orange equipment increases damage to specific monsters by about 20%, and the price increases dramatically with every 1% increase.

The Azure Sword increases the damage of aquatic monsters by up to 40%!

For a weapon like this, all words are redundant.

All descriptions are tainted.

The best description is to just tell everyone the power contained in the Azure Sword.

Things are exactly as Mei thought, adventurers, get collectively excited!

Linda's breathing suddenly became rapid. He had 40% increased damage from aquatic monsters and 300 points of strength.

His legendary passive skill [Libra Conservation] also increases his magic power by 300 points.

This attribute value is almost perfect for a level 15 weapon.

The high percentage damage increase that comes with it can prevent it from being eliminated for a long time.

Even if Linda reaches level 30 or even 40 in the future, the 40% increased damage to aquatic monsters from [Blue Sword] can still be used as a countermeasure weapon.

Judging from its attributes, this blue sword has no shortcomings.

If I have to say, the biggest disadvantage is that it is expensive!

Linda still had 45 gold coins left, so it was easy for him to buy other level 15 orange equipment.

But this kind of weapon that increases damage by percentage and is used to counter aquatic monsters even by star-level adventurers... is not a 100% sure win.

Among the VIPs in the first row, some were obviously interested and were staring at the Blue Sword, rubbing their hands ready to get started.

Facing these suspected star-level competitors, Linda's palms were sweating.

His financial resources are far inferior to those of the old star rank.

His only hope is that the other party doesn't really like this weapon, so he might succeed.

"The Azure Sword, starting price, 10 gold coins, each bid increase must not be less than 1 gold coins."

Mei Si knocked the hammer, "Auction, start!"

"15."

"17."

"20 million!"

The sounds of bidding came one after another.

No. 311 looked at the Azure Sword anxiously, but he didn't have enough gold coins, so he tapped his feet on the ground...

"40."

Behind her, a sign with the number 412 was raised, calmly calling out an extremely terrifying number.

It doubled from the previous 20 gold coins!

And looking at the calm look of No. 412, it seems that taking out 40 gold is not worth mentioning.

A trace of confusion appeared on the girl's face behind the mask.

That 412 was penniless when he left the team, how come he is so rich now?

Even though the other person was wearing a mask, those eyes were so familiar that she quickly recognized the true identity of No. 412.

She will never forget the culprit who caused her to become the 'Clown Captain'.

"40 for a level 15 weapon is definitely a huge rip-off."

When the girl cursed angrily,

"41."

The VIP number 009 in the front row raised his placard to bid.

It seems that more than one person thinks this weapon is worth more than 40.

Linda frowned, raised the sign, and spoke in a calm and gentle tone, making it impossible to guess his mood: "42."

"43."

"44."

"45."

At the center of the bidding battlefield, there were only two of them left.

When the price of 45 was called out, Linda felt nervous, as this was all his assets.

If it were in the game, he would have opened the small blue software to apply for a loan, and this sword would bring him greater profits.

But the loan process in the other world is more complicated.

Far water cannot quench near thirst, and Linda did not expect that bringing so many gold coins would not be enough.

"50."

No. 009 holds up a sign.

This number cooled Linda's enthusiasm.

Compared with those star-level adventurers in the first row, the gap in financial resources is still too big.

Any piece of purple equipment dropped in a high-level secret realm can be as expensive as ordinary orange equipment.

Over time, every star-level adventurer has a rich fortune.

And at this moment,

The woman with the number 004 and the cat mask turned her head and glanced at him.

A voice that sounded like an illusion rang in my ears: "Go."

what?

Linda frowned in confusion.

A very strange feeling emerged from the bottom of my heart.
