Beast Throne

Chapter 223 Girl's Long Dress

Things like crystals are not of high use value, and are generally used as handicrafts.

Crystals are all naturally formed, and they are produced in caves and sea crevices. Although the number is not very large, it is still a large number compared with pearls. This crystal is made into carts and cages, which is relatively rare. Crystal, if it is carved into handicrafts, it can also be sold at a very high price.

After all, there are many wealthy nobles on the mainland, and those with a good face are more, so it is something worth showing off to have a life-sized crystal statue at home.I believe that even if the people of the Holy See come, they are willing to buy it back and carve it into a statue.

But such a large piece of crystal turned into a cart and a cage, so no one would buy it.Buy it back and live in it or show off?People will just think you're an idiot.

But such a large piece of flame crystal is indeed a treasure that has never been seen before or since.

Crystal crystal, you can tell from the name that it has a little water attribute, otherwise it would not be produced in large quantities on the bottom of the sea.But flame crystals do have a true flame attribute, and they can usually only be found near volcanoes. The number is much smaller than pearls, and they are all formed by accident, unlike pearls that are produced every year.

Flame crystals are not only fiery red in color, but also contain a lot of fire elements.The magic crystal of the fire monster is also of the fire element like the flame crystal, and it also contains a lot of fire elements.But the comparison between the two is like the difference between diamonds and corundum. A capable fire magician will choose flame crystals instead of fire magic crystals when making wands.

The nobles and merchants who came to participate in the auction looked at this eight-foot-high flame crystal with a waist circumference of eight feet. They couldn't turn their heads for a while. Everyone knew that the largest flame crystal was only the size of a fist, and it could just be inlaid in On the wand, the smaller one can also be made into a ring, but this... is too exaggerated, it takes a long time to eat it.

There is also this exaggerated fire attribute. The flame crystal contains a lot of fire energy, but generally it is warm when held in the hand at most. This one is so rich that it can ignite things.No wonder they set up a crystal cart and cage in the crystal hall, and they packaged them up for auction.If it was replaced with a wooden cart, I am afraid that it would be burned directly. Without this cart and cage, I would not be able to take it home.

After the auctioneer ignited the covering black cloth, he did not continue to introduce, giving everyone enough time to react.First of all, everyone knows what the flame crystal is, so there is no need to talk too much.Since such a large piece is placed here, it can explain the problem very well. It is useless to say more, and you can understand it by looking at it.

This time the auctioneer did not use his imagination to fabricate a gorgeous birth and connotation for it.As he said before, this flame crystal was really discovered three years ago, and he did not lie about this.In fact, when an ordinary small caravan was sailing, they found that the nearby sea water was actually hot. After sending people to search, they found this crystal. That happened not long after the tsunami.

Generally speaking, whoever discovers the things in the ocean belongs to them. The Kamikaze Empire would not do such unsightly things as robbery and robbery. The small caravan thought so too, so they immediately salvaged them.But unfortunately, the surface temperature of this flame crystal is extremely high, whether it is a rope or a person, it can be ignited.The small caravan was not strong enough. After three years of busy work, it still failed to salvage it smoothly. Instead, many people were folded in. They were really "human hands" and they were all burned.

In desperation, the small caravan could only report this matter to the Crystal Hall with an empire background, and let them salvage it. Of course, they can only get a small reward, which can be regarded as comfort, otherwise they will really fall into the trap. on this crystal.

It was half a year ago that the people in the crystal hall saw this flame crystal. Faced with such a ruthless character, they could only postpone the salvage date. Transfer this flame crystal in and send it to the auction house.They were very smart, so they simply sold the flame crystal and the cage together, and put the salvage costs on the seller's head.

After a brief pause, the auctioneer resumed his work and launched a new round of auctions. The starting price was set at 100 million gold coins, plus one hundred thousand.This price is considered very high, and the black pearl was only sold for 20 just now.

Unsurprisingly, as soon as the auction started, the scene immediately fell silent, and no one called for a price.This is normal. Although the flame crystal is precious, it is not a necessity. Mage with fire attributes may like it very much, but it is useless to others.Besides, the price is really high, and you can't earn [-] gold coins just by doing business, so why bother?

After an embarrassing wait, this exaggerated and peerless flame crystal passed the auction smoothly... "Hmph, how cunning!" the black-haired girl Qiong shrugged her nose and snorted coldly.

"What's wrong, miss? This flame crystal is indeed very precious, but the price is too high." Aunt Bai was puzzled.

"Hmph. Aunt Bai, if it's really just flame crystals, of course they can't be sold at such a high price, but have you ever seen flame crystals that have to be placed in a crystal cage? How can flame crystals be used to ignite cloth? I think The people in the crystal hall don't know what it is, they simply call it the flame crystal, and they set an outrageous price. Their intention is to spread the matter through the mouths of the following merchants. The flame crystal that can ignite cloth , such a big piece, just wait and see, it will be lively in a few days."

Aunt Bai showed a dazed expression, and suddenly remembered that there was an auction to be held in the Crystal Hall half a month later.They took out this flame crystal now, probably for the next publicity.Ordinary people don't think this thing is very useful, but for real practitioners, this flame crystal is probably the key to breaking the shackles, and it is worth paying more money.

The black-haired girl was right. In just a few days, a large number of fire magicians and other experts flooded into Yuwang City. Walking on the street, one could see magic wands dotted with crimson flame crystals everywhere.Auntie Bai admired Miss more and more. She couldn't feel it alone, but after seeing the epic flame crystal and looking at these small flame crystals, each of them became a whiteboard stall, which made Auntie Bai feel that these People are very poor.If that piece of epic flame crystal was thrown on the street, these people would definitely fight on the spot, and even if they bit it, they would have to bite off a piece before they were reconciled.

Half a month later, still in the crystal hall, the auction started again.

The black-haired girl booked a private room with Aunt Bai in advance, and waited patiently for the start of the auction just like everyone else.

"Miss, we really should go back after this time is over." Aunt Bai said again tirelessly.

"Got it, got it. Oh, Aunt Bai, I beg you, don't say any more, I can hear calluses in my ears." The black-haired girl pulled Aunt Bai's sleeve in a gesture of begging for mercy, and it was immediately effective.Aunt Bai stopped nagging, and changed the question again: "Miss, what are we doing here again? Maybe you also want to buy that flame crystal."

"Look, look, let's talk after looking." The black-haired girl neither admitted nor denied, which made Aunt Bai feel anxious.

Obviously different from the last time, the number of people in the auction was more than several times, and the little nobles who could book a private room last time could only squeeze helplessly in the hall on the first floor this time.In addition to the good-for-nothing nobles, there are also many unnamed fire magicians. They may not be famous, but their strength is beyond doubt.Not all powerful people are willing to be driven by the empire, some people like freedom.

But at this time, freedom obviously cannot be used as money. Compared with those people with backgrounds, the chances of them being able to buy treasures are very slim, but despite this, they still came.You can't do it face to face, but you can always do it behind the scenes.

The auctioneer was very straightforward this time, and he didn't tease everyone's patience with some useless things.With so many fire magicians present, even the temperature in the hall was much higher.As soon as the auctioneer appeared, without saying a word, four staff members came up again pushing the creaking crystal cart, and this time they didn't even bother to cover it with cloth.

"We are very clear about the purpose of everyone's visit. Hehe, the last time I told everyone that it was a flame crystal, it was actually not accurate." The auctioneer was very thick-skinned, and admitted without any scruples that he had lied last time .

"Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. Now things are here. If you have any problems, unfortunately I can't solve them. I don't even dare to touch them. But in order to meet everyone's needs..." The auctioneer took out an hourglass from his pocket and placed it next to the flame crystal.

"From now until all the sand in the hourglass falls, everyone will come to the stage to check it. No matter what method you take, this hall will not interfere. Of course, if you want to knock off a piece and take it back for research, presumably other people will also I won't agree. Hehe, please, you're welcome." The auctioneer made a gesture of please and stepped aside.

With the Kamikaze Empire as the background, it is indeed arrogant enough. Things are placed here, and you can check them at will without worrying about any problems.When the auctioneer said no matter what method to take, he really wanted to take a hammer to knock a piece off, but if he did, he might not be able to get out of the crystal hall.

Everyone has warmly invited them, and of course the magicians with clear goals will not be polite.After all, it is for the purpose of breaking through the shackles, and no one wants to spend a large sum of wish money inexplicably.All of a sudden, many magicians rushed to the booth, gathered around the crystal cage like an old Chinese doctor, and used various methods such as looking, hearing, asking, and even boldly chanting spells at the flame crystal.At that time, several strong men pretending to be staff reached into their sleeves to feel for the dagger, but they seemed to put it down after hearing something.

"Fireball!" A smarter magician thought of the easiest way to cast a small fireball next to the flame crystal.The effect was remarkable, the fireball released was several times bigger than usual, the magician who thought he was smart didn't pay attention for a while, and his beard was burned by the flames.

For a while, everyone followed suit, and countless fireballs were lit up on the booth, and the scene was spectacular, making the black-haired girl laugh out loud.

After tinkering with it for a while, not only did I not see the problem, but I became more confused.A group of fire magicians even forgot where they were and started discussing with each other.For such a scene, the auctioneer was still smiling, and he would say anything when someone asked him, without hiding anything.The auction temporarily turned into a seminar, and the meeting was carried out in a friendly, peaceful and pleasant atmosphere.But when the voice got louder and the magicians really forgot the purpose of their trip, the generous auctioneer cleared his throat, walked slowly to the crystal cage, and picked up the hourglass.

"Hehe, everyone, the sand has all fallen down."

Unfortunately, the time has come, and the purpose of the Crystal Hall has also been reached.The magicians were taken aback for a moment, but they had no choice but to walk down the booth step by step.

It's like a beautiful girl slowly lifted up her long skirt in front of you, and then put it down again when a section of snow-white thigh was exposed, which made you (bath) burn.

Still want to see?Give money!
