Versatile Mage: Ice Soul

Chapter 77 Military Department Ai Family
...............

The next day, seven in the morning.

The golden morning glow has dyed the sky over the North Sea red.

The sunlight fell silently on Ye Baiqiu's handsome cheeks. He opened his closed eyelids slightly, stretched out his hands to rub his face, and then sat up straight.

I looked at the time and saw that there were still a few hours until the afternoon auction.

After washing up and having breakfast downstairs, we started walking around Haidu.

I still have time, so I naturally have to go shopping. Since I’m here, I definitely want to experience the local flavors.

The streets are bustling with traffic and flow, and many tourists will be attracted by the dazzling array of goods in the shops along the street, carrying large and small bags, feeling satisfied.

Ye Baiqiu took one of Haidu's special snacks, Xiangxiang Bao, and bit into it. Since he was here, he must follow the local customs and eat some food that the locals love.

After eating, I walked inside and walked on the ground paved with stone bricks.

There are also some shops inside, but unlike the various ones outside, most of them sell all kinds of magic tools, so the business is particularly hot.

Ye Baiqiu looked at the brightly lit shops with interest, but in the end he targeted a medicinal material shop inside.

He slowly walked into the store. At this time, there were a lot of people in the store and the clerks were also busy, so no one came to greet Ye Baiqiu who had just entered the store in a short period of time.

No one came, and Ye Baiqiu was happy to be at ease. His eyes slowly swept over the glass cabinet. When his eyes passed by a jade box, he was slightly startled.

There is a dark green stone stored in the jade box on the transparent counter.

"Please take this thing out."

Slowly withdrawing his slightly fiery gaze, Ye Baiqiu raised his head and said to a clerk who came over.

The clerk who was stopped glanced sideways at Ye Baiqiu, who was wearing a white windbreaker, then turned around and took out the items from the counter.

"A hundred-year-old wood spirit crystal, an intermediate medicinal material, priced at 200 million."

Ye Baiqiu stretched out his hand to take it, ran his fingertips across the cracks in the stone, and lightly smelled the smell on his fingertips. Suddenly, a strange color flashed in his eyes.

"You are so lucky. It was the same in your last life. Wherever you go, there are no good things."

At this moment, a strange voice came from Ye Baiqiu's spiritual world, but soon, the voice became smaller and smaller until it disappeared.

It seems that this guy still hasn't recovered.

Ye Baiqiu said to himself.

Xuan Ling Jing, a medicinal material that can absorb the essence of plants, looks very similar to Wood Spirit Crystal.

But the effect is quite different. Xuan Ling Jing contains a lot of vitality, while Wood Spirit Crystal is just an ordinary refining material.

This thing can be used to make up for Ye Baiqiu's body's lack of resilience. In this way, his body can truly rival the commander level.

The demon's body is not only hard but also extremely tenacious.

Although Ye Baiqiu's body is comparable to that of a demon of the same level, his recovery power is far behind, so encountering this thing now is like giving him timely help.

"I want this thing, swipe the card." Ye Baiqiu handed over a card with a deposit of more than 1000 million.

The clerk took it and walked to the cashier to operate it. After a moment, he handed the card back to Ye Baiqiu.

After putting away his things, he turned around and left the store. Looking at the dazzling sun, he checked the time.

11:30 noon.

Find a place to have lunch, and then you can almost go straight to the auction.

Thinking of this, Ye Baiqiu walked towards a high-end restaurant not far away.

Went into the restaurant and sat by the window.

"Hello, sir?"

After sitting down for only a moment, a service staff came over immediately.

"It's just me." Ye Baiqiu said.

The waiter nodded and then took out an exquisite menu from under the table.

After taking the menu, Ye Baiqiu looked at the dishes very naturally, but when he saw the prices of the dishes above, he couldn't help but frowned.

It's not that I can't afford it, but I feel it's unnecessary. The price of the above dishes can almost buy half a magic weapon.Seeing this, the waiter said: "The ingredients we use here are made of high-grade demon meat, combined with many precious medicinal materials. It also has many benefits for magicians, so it is guaranteed to be value for money."

"It's interesting..." Hearing this, Ye Baiqiu became interested.

The origin of medicated diet is very ancient, but it is said that medicated diet has very good effects, especially in modern times, human beings have become more and more thorough in research on monsters, and some foodies have also researched some weird foods.

It is said that the medicated diet made by some master medicated dietitians can even prolong life.

It's just that medicated food usually needs to be taken for a long time, and basically only those rich and powerful who don't know magic will touch it or even study it in depth.

"Take two portions," Ye Baiqiu said.

"Okay." After saying that, the waiter left.

After a while, two medicated meals arrived.

The rich aroma overflowed, and Ye Baiqiu picked up the spoon and started eating without any hesitation.

"This should be regarded as a medicinal tonic. An ordinary mage should be able to strengthen the body and internal organs, but it is useless to me."

After eating, feeling the changes in his body, Ye Baiqiu commented.

He got up, went to the front desk, paid for the meal, and left directly.

………………

Haicheng Auction House is the largest auction house in Beihai, and it also belongs to the Luo Family in the north.

The Luo family is barely considered a relatively large family in the entire north.

Arriving at the auction house, Ye Baiqiu showed his identity as a master hunter.

The staff respectfully brought Ye Baiqiu to his seat.

"Have you heard that people from the Ai family in the north also participated in this auction?"

"Ai family, is it real or fake?"

Ye Baiqiu felt a little surprised when he heard it. The Ai family of the Northern Military Department?What are they doing here?

In the hall, there are no more than [-] seats surrounding a booth.

As everyone took their seats, the host of this auction also took the stage.

The host was smiling as she and the ground beneath her feet slowly rose.

"Welcome all distinguished guests to participate in this auction specially sponsored by Roche Group. I am the auctioneer of this auction, A Li..."

"Without further ado, the auction begins."

"Now I present to you the first lot."

A Li wore white gloves and carefully opened the covering cloth.

The originally dim environment in the venue was quickly illuminated by a flash of golden light.

Looking towards the light source, Ali held a golden horn in his hand.

"The first item on auction is the single horn of the golden horned insect. Its formation is extremely difficult."

"The Golden Horned Insect is a kind of monster that can reach the warrior level when it reaches adulthood, and a small number of them are born with a special spine. This type of Golden Horned Insect has a certain probability of breaking through to the Commander level, so they will become members of their respective groups. As a beloved child, during the growth process, the Golden Horned Insect will transfer part of the energy in its body into its own horn, and when it needs to break through, it can increase its chances by swallowing its own horn."

"This is the origin of the Golden Horn. As long as it is a contracted beast of the water system, when it breaks through the leader, it can grind the beads into powder and use it to shape the bones. This can increase the success rate of the breakthrough by [-]%."

After listening to the introduction, everyone in the audience started discussing.

"Although it's only [-]%, this is a breakthrough from the leader!"

"Hey, didn't you hear that you need a water-type summoned beast?"

"Indeed, if there were no restrictions, the value of this thing would be immeasurable."

Ye Baiqiu was not interested in this thing, after all, he was not a summoner.
