Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 641 Star Stone
In the huge venue, the surroundings were silent.

"Only us?" Enzo looked around and found that there was no one in the auditorium around him, so he couldn't help being a little puzzled.

"of course not."

Curtis shook his head and said, "This dimensional space is an auction house specially prepared for congressmen in the northern border. In order to respect personal privacy, every congressman will be in an independent space when entering here."

A thoughtful expression appeared on Enzo's face.

He probably understood what Curtis meant. This dimensional space should have independent rules. It seems to be in the same space, but every congressman who enters here is in an independent area.

The surrounding auditorium is a private venue for every congressman.

Only the most central high platform is shared by everyone. After the auction starts, the councilors will conduct item auctions one by one.

"Be patient."

Curtis said: "At this stage, the Faceless Ones are communicating with the councilors to collect the items that need to be auctioned. In two hours at most, the auction will start. If you have any items that need to be sold, you can also hand them in." To the Faceless."

Enzo thought for a while and nodded.

Afterwards, he summoned the Faceless, handed over the sealed ball to the opponent, and at the same time took out a burning heart from the space ring.

"Baro's heart of the flame demon?"

A trace of surprise appeared on Curtis's face, and he said in surprise, "This is a good thing, where did you get it?"

"It's just a fluke." Enzo didn't say much.

This Barlow Balrog Heart was his spoils when he went to the Lost Continent. At that time, in the Kingdom of God on the Lost Continent, he killed a Ballow Balrog and collected the opponent's body.

The Barlow Balrog is a lord-level demon.

As for the whole body, only this heart is the most valuable, and Enzo has already used other things for experiments.

"Smack! It's a pity."

Curtis shook his head and said, "This kind of precious material should be able to fetch a lot of money in the century-old auction. This kind of annual auction is actually just an exchange meeting between congressmen."

"Those big figures like the speaker will basically not participate."

Enzo nodded with a thoughtful face. After he was promoted to the fourth-level wizard of all souls, he needed some star stones as a transaction currency. He originally planned to throw the Hunger God he had just captured at the auction.

It seems unnecessary now.

According to Curtis, most of the participants in the annual auction are fourth-level wizards of all spirits, and the speaker-level figures above the fifth level will not easily appear in an auction of this level.

"In this case, let's do these." Enzo nodded.

The meaning of participating in this auction is mainly to see the world, and at the same time exchange some star stones as basic wealth.

The Faceless Man disappeared after taking Curtis and Enzo's auction items.

A few more hours passed.

The surrounding space suddenly distorted, Curtis' face was calm, the sky gradually fell into darkness, and the stars lit up like lights.

"It's about to start." Curtis said.

On the high platform in the middle of the auction house, a huge silver scale appeared, with a ghostly figure floating on it, as if imprisoned.

"This is?" Enzo frowned.

"Equivalent to Libra."

Curtis saw Enzo's doubts, and took the initiative to explain, "In the era when the gods ruled in the first era, the currency system of human society was not perfect, so a god of Libra was born."

"The god of the scales is just an inferior god."

"The real combat power doesn't even reach the level of a fourth-order life body, but it is indeed a god. It is said that it is a soul that comes from nowhere. It is a god who was promoted after accidentally obtaining the divine fire."

"The fighting power of the God of Libra is weak, but it symbolizes the fairness of the transaction."

"Therefore, as soon as the concept of trading came into being in human society, the God of Libra began to absorb the power of faith and punish those profiteers who used bad methods in trading. Although there is no church established, it is admired by people."

"Until later, the age of the gods ended."

"The weak God of Libra hid during the invasion of the abyss demons, so he did not participate in the Battle of Heaven Mountain. After the rise of wizard civilization, he carried out a hunting operation, and the God of Libra was therefore capture."

"However, this God of Libra has a peaceful personality."

"There is almost no threat to the wizard civilization. In addition, the God of Libra actively chooses to surrender, and the parliament retains his self-will. It is just branded and let him serve the wizard civilization."

"The God of Libra readily accepts this."

"Although he is only a weak god, the God of Libra has his own authority. He can measure the value of items and attach divine power to the balance for wizards to exchange items at equal value."

Curtis slowly recounted the story of the God of Libra.

Enzo had a pensive expression on his face, and he immediately understood that the balance in the center of the auction site should be the balance with the power of the God of Scales, which can measure the value of items.

"Anything can become a god!" Enzo couldn't help complaining.

"Ha, don't underestimate the God of Libra."

Curtis chuckled and said, "In the multiverse, there are all kinds of gods and spirits. Each god has its own authority. Although the fighting power of the God of Libra is extremely weak, it is absolutely fair."

Enzo nodded and agreed.

At the same time, I learned more about the gods. After the end of the age of the gods, the wizards launched a war to hunt the gods and hunted the gods in the wizarding world. Existences like that survived because they chose to surrender.

"The person who knows the current affairs is Junjie."

This sentence suddenly appeared in Enzo's mind, no one can change the trend of the times, but when faced with a choice, one needs to weigh the pros and cons.

The rise of wizarding civilization is unstoppable.

The gods who fell in ancient times, because they couldn't see this clearly, ended up miserable in the end. If they can make the right choice, maybe they can also get the eternity of losing freedom just like the God of Libra.

Just as Enzo was thinking, the auction had already started.

"Follow the principle of equivalent exchange, the trade fair starts now!"

A gentle voice came from the balance in the center of the auction house, and then two faceless men appeared in front of them carrying a shield.

Boom!

The bronze shield was still on the left side of the scale, and immediately fell to the bottom.

"What does that mean?" Enzo asked.

"That's the way auctions work."

Curtis explained, "The councilors throw the auctioned items on the scale. If someone wants to buy it, they can throw the item to the other side until the scale is completely equal, which means the deal is reached."

Enzo frowned, feeling a little surprised.

The Northern Council is the center of rights in the northern continent. The auction will use such a primitive method. Although it follows the principle of equivalent exchange, it does not seem to be absolutely fair, because the value of each item is different for different people. .

At the same time, the Faceless Man on the high platform also began to introduce the attributes of the shield.

It was a shield of holy quality, a piece of equipment that a fourth-tier wizard spent 50 years building. It could withstand attacks from a third-tier wizard, but if the enemy was a fourth-tier wizard, it could only withstand a few times.

"Bad items." Curtis said with disdain.

Enzo also nodded. The annual auction is essentially just an exchange of items between councilors. For third-tier wizards, holy objects may be valuable equipment, but most fourth-tier wizards look down on them.

"One hundred star stones."

After a while, someone finally made a bid, and a hundred star stones were thrown over. The scale immediately lifted slowly, but it did not reach a balanced state.

Enzo frowned and shook his head.

"The principle of equivalent exchange is a rule left by the ancestors." At this time, Curtis also saw Enzo's expression, and said helplessly, "We follow the meaning of this sentence, but sometimes, this may also become shackles."

As Enzo thought before, different items have different values ​​for different people. The principle of equivalent exchange seems to represent fairness, but in fact there is absolute fairness in the world.

The scale faltered, and the congressman raised the price again.

Another hundred star stones were thrown up, and this time the balance was finally balanced, and the bronze round shield was obtained by the congressman. Due to the particularity of the space rules, Enzo could not know the other party's information, even men and women. .

"Actually, apart from the Northern Auction, there are also some small private gatherings among congressmen." Curtis said, "The auction is not bound by the scales, and it is relatively more free."

"I'll introduce you later."

"Thank you, Your Excellency Curtis." Enzo said.

He has just been promoted to a fourth-level wizard. After returning to the wizarding world, one thing Enzo needs to do is to integrate into the circle of fourth-level wizards as soon as possible. The importance of information and intelligence is obviously self-evident. The crisis in the sea blue world has not yet been resolved. .

Soon, several more items were auctioned off.

Curtis didn't seem very interested, because those were all sacred object-level auctions, which didn't have much meaning to fourth-order wizards, and almost every fourth-order wizard could manufacture them.

And those fourth-order wizards who choose to buy are mostly for the younger generation to use.

Even second-tier wizards can establish wizard families, not to mention fourth-tier wizards. Any fourth-tier wizard has a huge power behind them. They not only enjoy the benefits brought by the power, but are also guardians.

"The following auction item, the sealed ball."

On the high platform, the Faceless One placed a black crystal ball at one end of the scale, and then introduced, "A large amount of abyssal breath is sealed inside, which can be used for experiments or refining items."

The auction of the sealed ball begins.

However, it was embarrassing that no one bid for it for a long time. The breath of the abyss is not too precious to fourth-order wizards. If it is not for experiments or refining equipment, no one will collect these things.

A trace of helplessness appeared on Enzo's face.

And at this moment, someone finally made a bid, and a councilor directly threw a hundred star stones onto the scale, and obtained the sealed ball.

"I originally planned to go to the abyss."

In a certain part of the auditorium, a witch yawned and said, "The recently bred demon species are growing slower and slower. I wonder if giving them some abyssal breath this time will have any effect."

On the other side, a smile appeared on Enzo's face.

After the sealed ball was sold, he also got 10 star stones. Converted into high-level magic stones, it would be about [-] million, which is equivalent to half a year's resource income of the war ghost world.

The price was not high, but Enzo was in a good mood.

Looking at the star stone sent back by the Faceless, Enzo thought deeply. This is the universal currency in the multiverse, which contains special energy and can be used in almost any world.

"It's amazing!" Enzo sighed.

Afterwards, the auction continued, and one item after another was purchased by members of parliament, some of which were also unsold.

"The following item, the heart of the demon lord!"

After dozens of items were auctioned off, it was finally the devil's heart's turn. When the flaming heart was thrown on the scale and the Faceless Man gave a brief introduction, almost immediately there were councilors who chose to bid.

Five hundred star stones!

A thousand star stones!
Three thousand star stones!

The biddings of three successive councilors failed to balance the balance. Enzo showed a pensive expression on his face. He seemed to finally understand the meaning of the principle of equivalent exchange, which is the absolute equality of value between items.

"This Barlow flame demon heart, at least five thousand star stones."

Curtis stroked his chin, and said, "The demon lord is a fourth-order life form. Even if a wizard wants to hunt it down, it will take a lot of energy and even take risks. Therefore, the five thousand star stones are very reasonable."

While speaking, another member of parliament chose to bid.

In the end, the heart of the demon lord was sold for 20 star stones, and a smile appeared on Enzo's face. This is already equivalent to [-] million high-level magic stones, which is the resource income of War Ghost World for [-] years.

"Sure enough, plundering and hunting are the fastest ways to accumulate wealth!"

Enzo couldn't help sighing. He was a little complacent when he originally owned the War Ghost World as a resource contribution point. Now it seems that the resources contributed by the world are small streams, far inferior to plundering.

Kill a demon lord, you can get thousands of star stones.

And if you capture a living fourth-order life body, it can even be worth tens of thousands of star stones. This kind of harvest is fully comparable to the resource output of a world for a hundred years. Perhaps the only advantage of plane resource output is persistence .

At the same time, hunting life of the same level also requires taking great risks.

You must know that in the multiverse, the magic crystals of wizards are also very valuable items. Many devils and demon lords are proud of collecting the magic crystals of fourth-order magicians.

Such is the law of the Black Forest!
Different races and civilizations fight and plunder each other, and the victor gets everything from the loser, which naturally includes life.
