There is a lord who just wants to draw cards, what's wrong with that?

"Many people will never be able to see the scenery at the top of the giant tree in their entire lives. Don't you want to take a look?"

Under the gray hat, Domi's lips curled into a confident smile, as if a mysterious knight would lead them to the Garden of Eden that they had never dared to imagine.

Both Morey and May swallowed.

The top of Blofield Territory is a strategically located place. Even high-ranking officials cannot get there as it is as difficult as climbing to heaven.

Even if Morey, who has been struggling at the bottom of society, struggles all his life, he will still stop moving forward.

If the Light Shield Family had not yet declined, Mei might have had a chance to go up once, but with her previous identity, she had never even thought about it.

But now, someone came out and told them shamelessly: "You want to go up?" No problem, you can go up anytime.

How unexpected that would be.

Arriving at the 'Giant Tree', which was the interior of the Mage Tower, they entered the central floating elevator that led directly to the top floor. As the hatch closed, the elevator began to slowly rise...

"Do you know what the world is?" Domi stood in front of the two of them, with his back to them, and spoke.

Morey thought for a moment and said, "Can I eat luxurious meals and live a noble life?"

"Saved the world?" Mei also said.

Domi shook his head and said:

“The so-called world is the side of the world you see.”

"I can eat delicacies from land and sea every day, enjoy the wealth and splendor at my fingertips, appreciate precious works of art, and listen to the music played by the symphony orchestra just for me. This is my world."

"But I can't tell whether wheat or leeks are planted in the fields. I don't know how the price of an egg will fluctuate between morning and evening. In order to survive in a poor and difficult environment, what means should be used... I don't know these, but you know that this is your world."

"Saving the world is the world of heroes. Everyone has their own world."

"Proust never traveled far because of asthma, but he wrote the famous book "Remembrance of Things Past" without seeing the world. There was a doctor named Kant, who was just a country boy who never traveled far, but he had a profound impact on our current medical technology."

“Only fools say that others have never seen the world.”

"So there's no need to feel sad because people say you're ignorant, because they're the real fools."

"But this alone is not enough, you also need to know what it means to truly see the world:

I have seen the best, and I don’t like things;

Know the worst, and do not feel sorry for yourself;

The flowers are blooming, but my ambition to soar to the sky remains unchanged;

He is well-read but does not talk big.

I believe that both of you can do the following three things, but you have never had the chance to practice the first one, so I would like to take this opportunity to show you that standing at the top will make you stand out from the crowd. Small mountain scenery! "

Domi turned around and adjusted the brim of his hat.

The broadcast in the suspended lift platform issued a reminder:

[Attention, we are about to reach the top of the magic tower... Attention, we are about to reach the top of the magic tower...]

His arms stretched out like an eagle spreading its wings. At the same time, the tightly closed door slowly moved to both sides. The strong wind above the clouds swept in, blowing their hair into disarray.

"Ladies and gentlemen," Domi said proudly, "Welcome to the highest level in the world~"

As he spoke, he took the lead and stepped back out of the lift, leaving the broadest view to Morey and Mei.

They walked out with trembling feet, and what came into view was a flawless blue sky. The rising sun was hanging on the not-so-distant skyline, and the clouds that were once far away in the sky were now within reach.

If you bend down a little, you can see the town on the ground below the clouds, which looks like an ant nest.

The situation was exactly as Domi described.

Morey's lips trembled silently:

"I will climb to the top of the mountain and see all the other mountains below... I have seen the best and I am not happy with things." Think about how Duomi behaves...

"My Lord, I understand!"

Chapter 79 Dragon's Lair

Chapter 79-78- Dragon's Lair

On the second floor of the Nightwish Tavern, in the converted multi-functional office.

Mei was already dressed up. At the age of 18, she could be very beautiful with just a little dressing up, not to mention dressing up for the event. Morey was immediately fascinated by her.

He was sure that Mei was now the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life, except for his mother.

Especially those faint crimson-purple pupils, paired with such a harmless face, they look both pure and charming.

It was hard to imagine how these two words could appear in the same person, but he just felt that way.

And yet, it was this beauty who was helping him adjust his clothes in front of a full-length mirror. The large expanse of whiteness was particularly dazzling against the backdrop of the dress, making this eight-year-old, full-blooded boy a little absent-minded, and he didn't know where to look.

"Did the Master say where to wait for him?"

At this time, Mei suddenly asked.

"No. 301. He has prepared a box for us. Just wait for the adults there. He will come after he finishes spending time with his brothers and sisters."

"By the way, the adults also said that if there is anything we want, they can take pictures for us."

"Morey, it's better not to..."

"Why? This is a kind gesture from the adults."

"I don't want to owe you too much. I'll feel guilty and afraid I'll never be able to pay you back."

Having said that, although Morey felt that there was some truth in this, he still expressed his thoughts:

"Mei, we definitely don't need luxury goods like paintings and jewelry.

But if it is something that can improve our abilities, we should not be too modest with adults. After all, only when we grow up can we be able to repay adults for all they have invested in us.”

"We who have no ability are wasting the trust of adults. Don't you think so?"

Mei thought about it carefully and nodded in agreement with Morey's point of view.

She is obviously ten years younger than him, but she can think so much... She also needs to work hard to improve herself.

"Let's go, the carriage is waiting for us outside."

Just as Morey and Mei had set off for the Dragon's Lair, a group of children in the castle had already happily gotten into the carriage.

Edward was still chattering away, like a kindergarten kid about to go on a spring outing, a real atmosphere setter.

Even Argyle, who usually doesn't talk much, was unexpectedly excited and said several more words.

Domi and Rosa sat quietly together, looking into the eyes of Edward and Argyle.

"Let me make this clear first," Argyle reminded, "Father gave us a separate box. If you like anything, you can bid for it, but you can't maliciously drive up the price. There are people specifically assigned to do this. And you can't run around outside the box, so as not to disturb other people's bidding. Do you understand?"

At this time, Argyle is like a big brother.

Although he was born only a few seconds earlier than Domi, he is still very responsible.

"no problem!"

"understood."

"I'll just follow my brothers~"

"Okay, let's put it this way. Osmond (Captain of the Guard), we can set off now."

"Yes, sir." Osmond's rough voice came from outside the car.

The short-range magic circle burst into light, and the next moment, the carriage moved from the top of the mountain to the road at the foot of the mountain, speeding towards the dragon's nest.

The Dragon's Lair, as the name suggests, is a giant building transformed from the remains of a giant dragon.

This dragon was the white dragon that was killed by the Blofeld family. Its corpse fell in the central ring of the city.

Rather, the city was built around this dragon corpse. It is also the symbol of the family and one of the most dazzling business cards of Blofeld County. The other two are the 'Giant Tree' Mage Tower and the mountaintop castle.

The Dragon's Lair has two functions.

To create a sense of atmosphere, the auction house was built underground.

On the ground, inside the circular, coiled keel is the arena and the official certification site for the mage level assessment.

There are entrances from all directions, and there are even special passages and parking lots for carriages. In Domi's opinion, this is too advanced.

And the number of people coming here today... is too much, it's simply a sea of ​​people!

They came from all corners of the world - from different territories within the empire, even from different countries and tribes, and even from across the ocean. Some people heard the news and came from thousands of miles away to participate.

Humans, elves, orcs, dwarves... except for the demons, almost all races and sub-races were present, wearing all kinds of costumes and with all kinds of faces, walking together, just like a comic convention filled with all kinds of cosplay.

Once they entered the underground parking lot and got off the carriage, they would go directly to the main road leading to the auction house. The five of them would be separated in an instant by the surging flow of people.

Of course, they will never squeeze in with most people. Privileges should be treated as privileges.

Scarface Osmond led the way for them:

"Master and Miss, please go this way. You can go directly to the private room area."

It is not much different from the description in the comics I read in my previous life:

A huge circular underground space, like the auditorium in the Roman Colosseum or the lecture hall in a university. Below the box area, there are layers of ordinary seats stacked up, densely packed, at least tens of thousands of ordinary seats.

The platform at the bottom, in the middle, is where the auction items are placed.

The best view is available in the upper-level boxes. If your eyesight is poor and you can't see clearly or can't see the back, there will be a magic projection directly in front of you.

If you are thirsty, there are free fruit drinks; if you suffer cardiac arrest due to excessive stimulation, there are professional medical and funeral teams on standby at all times to provide a one-stop service including treatment, emergency treatment, admission to the museum, and banquet.

The service is quite comprehensive.

The four siblings sat on the four soft chairs that had been prepared in advance, except for Osmond, who had to stand guard at the door...

Except for Domi, everyone else was chatting, and he was the only one who was recalling the list of auction items.

When he went to Carlos to ask for an extra box, he also took a look at the list of auction items.

Carlos was originally not allowed to show it to him, but after Domi's constant nagging, he reluctantly let him take a look.

However, Carlos would never have thought that Domi had the ability to read ten lines at a glance.

He only needed to take a glance to store all the information in his brain, and then he could remember it completely by memorizing it in a short period of time.

The benefit of high mental strength is that memory is greatly improved.

Now, he is probably the only person besides Carlos and the tour guide who knows all the information and order of the auction items.

However, his understanding of the auction items was limited to their names, and he had to guess at their functions. However, this was enough for him to find a suitable area to meet up with Morey and the others.

Once all the guests were seated, the auction began quickly.

The lights in the venue went out one by one, and only the stage in the center was still illuminated by the spotlight.

"Da da da……"

Then, a woman dressed quite coquettishly and with a good figure, wearing a one-shoulder tube top evening gown and high heels, walked onto the stage with enchanting steps, entered the public's field of vision, and spoke in a graceful and generous manner:

"Everyone is welcome to attend the 'Universal Hand' auction hosted by the Blofeld family!"

The pleasant and seductive sound can undoubtedly arouse the primitive desires in men's hearts, making them lose their minds and spend a lot of money to buy the collection.

The auction controls human nature by constantly stimulating people's greed and desires! It turns this place into a place of decadence, chasing dreams, and winners take all while losers eat dust!

"Clap clap clap!"

The whole audience burst into thunderous applause. Many people have been waiting for this moment for three years...

Come on! My favorite money game!

Chapter 80: Racing with Money

Chapter 80-79- Race with Money

"The first round of auctions will feature paintings by outstanding masters from all over the world. After appraisal, they are all of high artistic level and have extremely high collection value. If they are hung in the lobby of a home, it would be a great thing."

As soon as he finished speaking, the maids lined up and placed the paintings neatly on the table, covering them with curtains, which were then opened one by one by the beautiful auctioneer.

No one here is short of money, the only difference is how much money one has. A small famous painting can still be bought, and if it is kept for a long time or if the painter dies suddenly, the value of the painting can still appreciate.

It is also a good choice to use it as an excuse for tax evasion, and it can also be sold when you are short of money.
