Dragon Race: Lu Mingfei Returns from Warhammer

Chapter 58 Alchemy Weapons
The first auction item was brought up, and it was covered with a piece of red velvet. All the guests in the opera house stared at the tray in the hands of the auctioneer.

"Tonight's first auction item."

The auctioneer carefully placed the tray on the display stand, and immediately bowed deeply to all the guests of the opera house.

"The past of this item is full of gloomy mythology, and even more of a curse."

"In the past, its holders, without exception, chose to commit suicide by jumping off a building to end their lives."

"This also includes the 18th-century Russian princess Leonila Galitzine-Bariatinsky."

The auctioneer's voice became gloomy and deep, describing the weirdness of this item.

But the look of anticipation on the faces of the guests did not fade away because of these, on the contrary, it aroused their interest even more.

Those who can come here are all mixed races, and they know very well that the so-called weirdness is not the real weirdness.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the venue had been mobilized, the auctioneer stretched out his hand and pinched a corner of the red cloth and gently pulled it apart, allowing the item on the plate to be fully bathed in the spotlight of the opera house.

But that precious item was not illuminated by the light, it was still dark and deep, like a bottomless black hole, quietly lying on the tray.

"Black Orlof, also known as the 'Eye of the Creator'."

The auctioneer read out the name of the black diamond.

"It is said that in a grand 'Brahma Temple' in the Pondicherry region of ancient India, there is a statue of 'Brahma', the god of creation in Hinduism, whose eyes are inlaid with the most precious gemstone in India. "

"There was a monk in the temple who was blinded by wealth and stole an eye from the statue one night. It is said that Brahma was furious and cursed that everyone who owned this black diamond would die."

The deep, dull diamond caught the attention of all guests, especially the women.

Gemstones are inherently fatal to women. They gently cover their snow-white chests. Even with all kinds of terrible legends, they cannot extinguish the sparkle in their eyes trying to take this gemstone as their own.

"The Eye of the Creator weighed 195 carats when it was removed from the statue. It was divided into three pieces in order to break the legendary curse, and was collected by folk collectors. Since then, no accident has happened to its owner."

The auctioneer said that hands wearing white velvet gloves carefully held the black gemstone so that guests in the opera hall could better see the mysterious gemstone.

"The main reason is that the alchemy field in the diamond has been removed, otherwise even the mixed race would not be able to withstand the stimulation of its field."

Someone beside Lu Mingfei said softly.

He turned his head and saw the young girl sitting next to him, about 20 years old, her eyes were like two faint golden lights.

"Clarissa Donna, you can call me Donna."

She smiled and stretched out her hand to show friendliness to Lu Mingfei.

"Katos Lu."

Lu Mingfei thought for a while, and held the delicate palm of the other party.

"You're quite low-key," Donna smiled and withdrew her hand after the etiquette was over, the golden light in her eyes dimmed, "I don't know since when, someone lit up the golden pupils to show off the purity of their blood, and wanted to give It's like a masquerade party under pressure from others."

"It's nothing to brag about."

Lu Mingfei disagreed.

"It's true that maintaining this state looks awe-inspiring, but it's actually exhausting."

Donna agrees.

"You said that there is an alchemy field in that diamond?"

Lu Mingfei is more interested in these stories.

"That's right, a field of alchemy that has been waking up."

"Ordinary humans who hold it are confused and stimulated by it, and have the illusion that they have become angels, wanting to flap their wings and fly - and then jump off the building and fall to their deaths."

Donna said, "But it should be harmless now. The alchemy field has been physically destroyed. If an alchemist wants to buy it back and study the incomplete alchemy field, it is not impossible, but the biggest use of this diamond is to make a necklace and wear it on On the chest of a beautiful woman who is overwhelmed by the country and the city."

Seeing that the atmosphere on the stage had reached a threshold, the auctioneer on the stage put the black diamond back on the tray, and knocked it down with a small mahogany hammer:

"The owner of the black orlof gave us the right to price it to Sobeys Auction House. This diamond was divided into three black orlofs, the smallest of the diamonds. Its weight also reached an astonishing 61.5 carats. It has perfect color without impurities and profoundness, plus the mysterious story and history behind it—”

"According to Sobeys' jewelry appraisal, the starting price for this piece of black Olof will be $400 million, with each increment not less than $10."

$400 million to buy a rock... Lu Mingfei shook his head, only a fool would—

Unexpectedly, as soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, there was a "fool" impatiently holding up the number plate:
"410 million!"

But the auctioneer didn't do anything, just smiled gracefully and looked at the whole opera house.

"450."

"480."

"500 million!"

……

The price calls are like waves of money.

In various story books, dragons are creatures who love to collect gold and gems, and they lie down and sleep in the piles of treasures piled up in mountains.

Apparently, half-breeds have inherited this penchant. According to Angers, half of the top art collectors in the world are of mixed race.

In the end, the black Orlof diamond sold for $900 million.

"There are so many fools."

Lu Mingfei put down the signboard in his hand, and quietly waited for the appearance of the "Lifting Weights as Lightly" alchemy field construction book.

"Indeed, for a smart person like me, Cary only has a minimum deposit of 200 million US dollars. I am afraid that the starting price of most auction items is more than this amount. I just come here to watch the fun."

Donna laughed.

The auction continued. The second lot was a heavy topaz brick carving. It didn't have any curses or legends like Black Orlof. It didn't have much special features except for a few dragon inscriptions. It belonged to an art collection. .

The starting price was US$420 million, and the transaction price was US$950 million after several rounds of bidding.

The third...

Fourth...

Until the sixth auction item caught Lu Mingfei's attention.

This time the auction item was carried out of the scarlet curtain by two burly men.

This item is also covered with red velvet silk, and it looks like a long flat box. I don't know if this is one of the auction items.

"Gentlemen and ladies, the next auction item is an alchemy weapon."

"Its creator..." the auctioneer paused, "Have you heard of 'Mímir'?"

Every time the trader introduces the auction item, he will reveal some small stories or rumors about it. As soon as he said this, many buyers who are familiar with Norse mythology stared at the auction item with golden eyes. more blazing.

"Who is Mímir?"

When the auction item was brought up, Lu Mingfei vaguely guessed that it might be a long sword or a big sword;
But as for who "Mímir" is in Norse mythology, he has no impression.

He asked Donna beside him.

"Mímir, Mimir, the wisest god in the Ethir tribe in Norse mythology, lives in a well under one of the three roots of the world tree, known as the well of wisdom, and the main god Odin drinks water from this well And gained wisdom."

"At the same time, he is also a mythical blacksmith, a master of casting, casting many things known to the Lord God Odin."

Donna explained to him softly.

On the stage, the auctioneer uncovered the red velvet cloth, and the spotlight fell on the long wooden box carried up by two burly men on the display stand.

Inside the wooden box lies a two-handed knight's long sword. The hilt is made of silver brambles, and the crosspieces on both sides are bent like wings towards the sword body;
The sword body is tough and slender, and the black-gold sharp light flows along the sides of the sword. When the strong white light of the spotlight falls on the sword body, a faint cyan light emerges, as if turning into a waterfall and pouring down.

"Alchemy long sword, yet to be named, the length of the sword is 153cm, the width of the sword is 5.7cm, and the normal weight is 43.7kg. Its style is similar to that of a medieval cavalry two-handed sword."

"It is rumored that Mimir in the real world is a noble subspecies, but he is indeed a true alchemist."

"This alchemy long sword came from him, and the sword has his name of Long Wenzun."

The auctioneer said that the burly man behind him who hadn't left yet took out the knight's long sword in the wooden box, and lifted it high with both hands grasping the crosspiece with difficulty.

When the guests saw the dragon pattern on the sword, they also saw the hideous veins on his biceps and triceps.

"This alchemy long sword comes with an unknown alchemy field. When hybrids with lower bloodlines use this sword, the weight of the sword will increase several times or even ten times;"

"When used by hybrids with high bloodlines, the weight of the sword will remain unchanged."

After the auctioneer finished speaking, he quietly looked at the VIP room on the second floor.

Those young mixed races who had stood up and walked to the window sill, their eyes were more blazing than anyone else.

Lu Mingfei's heart started beating "bang bang", and his body seemed to involuntarily resonate with the sword on the stage.

He quickly adjusted his mind and calmed down, but his gaze on the long sword in the center of the stage was also a little fiery.

He is also a good swordsman!
The chainsword has been used as a weapon in the warband-that is because the warband is so poor that it only has the chainsaw sword, and the only power sword is the exclusive weapon of the chapter leader.

"The alien alchemy weapon... the quality should be very good."

Lu Mingfei has already picked up the sign, and is going to buy it first.

"The starting price is US$700 million, and each increase must not be less than US$20."

The auctioneer knocked down the mahogany hammer, "Please start bidding."
