Hogwarts: Opening Sign-In Mangekyo Sharingan
Chapter 84 Auction! The Cruelty Of The Wizarding World!
Not far away, the location of the auction arrived.
It's just different from the magnificent building that Braun imagined.
It's just an ordinary tavern.
And it seems that the business is not very good~.
At least just from the outside - looking in.
There wasn't a single guest other than the bartender.
"Come on, come in with me."
Pushing open the door of the tavern, Braun quietly followed Augustus without saying a word.
"Ma'am, are you here to buy wine? Our tavern is closed today."
The bartender said with a smile.
"No, I'm here for the auction.
This is my invitation. "
Augustus drew a gold-plated invitation from his pocket.
On it was stamped with red wax paint the same badge as the one on the wall of a fortune-telling shop.
A crystal ball horoscope and tarot intertwined emblems.
The bartender, who was still casual at the moment when he saw the invitation, finally became serious.
There was also a kind smile on his face.
It was no longer the cold smirk just now.
"Of course, ma'am, please come this way. This is the alchemy we prepared for you..."
"No, we have our own."
Augustus glanced lightly.
Braun hastily took out two pale masks without any decoration except for the eyes and nostrils and handed them over.
And with the mask on the face.
Braun's whole body seemed to be surrounded by a layer of mist that others could not detect.
Let the figure of the whole person become a little blurred.
This is a new alchemy item that Braun refined during this time.
There is only one effect and that is to hide.
In terms of materials, he chose Mithril in order to ensure lightness.
As the most malleable and lightest magic metal.
The nature of Mithril is undoubtedly excellent.
Of course, the price is also very objective.
At least Braun didn't dare to have such a luxury before.
It took almost half an hour to walk on the spiral downward stairs.
The one in front of him finally turned into a wide corridor.
Magic lamps hung on both sides of the wall to brighten the entire passage.
There is a staircase in each of the four directions of the corridor.
Several wizards also came out of it.
It's just different from the mask that the wearer of Braun forges himself.
They were all wearing the standard masks that the bartender took out just now.
"May I ask why your mask is different from ours?"
One of the wizards who looked a little thin couldn't help asking.
But before Braun's grandmother could say anything.
The old wizard who came with him couldn't help scolding.
Then he apologized again and again.
After the two left, they angrily reprimanded the wizard.
"How did I tell you to come here and don't ask anything!"
"I'm just curious…………"
The skinny wizard couldn't help but talk back.
The strong man coming down the stairs on the other side couldn't help but sneered:
"Even if they are alchemists or not, those who can wear unique alchemy masks are those purebloods whose families do not lack money.
Brother, please educate the younger generation in your family!"
The voice was a little muffled by the distortion of the mask.
But the taunt from the wizard can still be heard.
Without waiting for the old wizard to say anything, he took his two juniors and left here.
Being interrupted by the strong man, the old man naturally couldn't say anything more.
He just glared at his junior fiercely and led him towards the corridor.
"Grandma, I feel that those wizards are a bit different from the ones I usually see."
Braun couldn't help but say.
Some of those waves of people were wearing wizard robes that were obviously not of modern style.
And there was a kind of coldness all over his body.
And those strong men, if he guessed correctly, they are all wolves!
The function of the standard mask is only to change the voice, but it cannot hide the appearance like one's own mask.
Sharp nails, lush hair, and the animal smell that can't be concealed even after wearing perfume over and over again.
All of these made Braun certain of the identities of those people.
The magic fluctuations of the thin wizard who asked them were just overflowing.
It seems that it has not been sealed by Hogwarts' guardian magic at all.
"I told you Braun, the wizarding world doesn't just have wizards and other magical creatures.
And except for the academic wizards.
More are a large number of wild wizards. "
Augustus said lightly.
It seems that there is no surprise to the scene just now.
"Wild wizard?"
He is a little unfamiliar with this name.
"Wild wizards refer to those wizards who have not experienced systematic magic education and accidentally stepped into the magic path."
Turning a side road, Augustus explained.
"But, don't all teachers have to go through the process of admission and acceptance before entering school?"
Braun asked suspiciously.
Both the Pen of Access and the Book of Acceptance are powerful alchemical items that were created by the four giants after the completion of Hogwarts.
And after a long period of time, with the magical blessings of successive principals, their radiating range also covered the whole of England.
When any child in the Isles first showed a gift for magic, the quill would fly out of the inkwell in an attempt to enter that child's name into the Book of Access.
The book of acceptance will determine whether the child will be accepted according to the amount of magic power.
Any wizard whose name they refuse to write will not be admitted to Hogwarts.
"It seems that Hogwarts has indeed taught you a lot."
Hearing that Braun was able to say the pen of admission and the book of acceptance, Augustus was surprised.
Braun was startled suddenly, then said shyly:
"I only found out after asking Professor Binns from History of Magic."
Augustus did not continue to dwell on this topic.
"The names of these people are naturally also recorded in the access book.
However, this does not mean that they will definitely enroll.
Remember the last sentence on the acceptance letter sent to you?"
"We will be waiting for your letter on July 31st?"
"That's right, this leaves an opportunity for the little wizards to refuse.
According to the agreement between Hogwarts and those wizards who use inheritance, if the other party finds the student before the school.
Then Hogwarts will not have the power to continue to admit them.
This is for the more diversified development of the wizarding world and also for those wizards to continue their inheritance.
However, compared with the orthodox academic school, the students who come out of this way may be particularly outstanding in a certain aspect.
However, compared with the students from colleges, they are generally weak. "
"It's not fair!"
"There is no fairness in this world."
Listening to his grandmother's words, Braun fell silent.
It has to be said that Augustus' words seem cruel.
But also very realistic.
Because no one cares about the thoughts of those little wizards who have not yet entered school.
Among other things, the resources I obtained as a pure blood are actually unfair to those ordinary Muggle-born wizards.
"Okay, here we are!"
Braun's attention was drawn to him.
At the end of the corridor is a huge meeting place.
There are neatly arranged seats in the venue.
In the middle is a high platform that seems to be the place where the auction host will explain.
There were not too many people in the venue, there were almost a few hundred people.
There are not only wizards but also many goblins and centaurs.
Braun didn't sit in those crowded seats like the others.
Instead, after handing out the invitation letter, he was taken to a small box by a dedicated waiter.
The view here is wider and you can see everything on the high platform up close.
The glass has been given a special magic, except for the people in the house, it is pitch black to anyone from the outside.
There are all kinds of fresh fruits, snacks and drinks in the house.
It can be said that compared with the outside, the box is simply two worlds.
The waiting time didn't last long.
After the seats are filled, the auction will officially start this time.
On the high platform in the center, a thin old wizard walked up.
His beard is very long, and the fat wizard robe hangs danglingly on his body.
But with the arrival of the other party, the whole venue became quiet.
"This is the Free family of the twenty-eight pure-blood family. Their family has been running Potions for generations and is also one of the important shareholders of this auction house."
Augustus looked at the old man on the high platform and explained to Braun.
"Welcome! Welcome to this auction!"
The old man's voice was hoarse with fright.
However, after being amplified by the spell, everyone can still hear it clearly.
"Well, you can see it.
There are many old friends here.
Of course, there are many new faces..."
"Old Fry! Let's get started!"
An impatient voice came from a box.
The voice was full of vicissitudes, and it seemed that the old man in the box was not young.
Old Fry, who was talking on stage, was suddenly interrupted and didn't get angry.
Instead, he smiled.
"Well, it looks like some of my old friends are getting impatient with the wait.
Alas, people like to talk nonsense when they are old.
Well then.
I announce the official start of the Summer Auction at the Plutos Grand Auction!"
With his announcement, the entire hall went dark.
Only on the high platform is there still light.
Then two slender women in waiter uniforms walked over pushing a huge cage covered by a curtain.
Although they concealed it well, Braun could still see the fear in their eyes.
"Allow me to introduce today's first lot!
A Zulu servant from Ugly Country!"
Accompanied by a huge red curtain was unveiled.
The things in the cage were also clearly displayed in front of everyone.
It was ten naked Zulus standing sluggishly in a cage.
Five men and five women.
Their expressions were dull, and they turned a blind eye to the gazes of the wizards in the audience.
"They have been controlled by special potions.
We will give you an antidote with your purchase.
After that, how to control it depends on you. "
The wizards in the audience whispered after seeing the lot.
"These are goods from the Ugly Country! These Zulu people are much better than those brought from the Black Continent.
...asking for flowers......
At least you don't need to waste time to adjust the language!"
You are such a waste! This is a fine servant!"
"There are both men and women, it seems that the auction house really has a heart..."
They discussed unscrupulously as if they were buying cattle and sheep.
From time to time, the old Fury who was carried up opened the mouths of these people to look at the teeth, which seemed to be a way of judging whether they were healthy or not.
After about ten minutes, Old Fury tapped the gavel in his hand.
Everyone quieted down.
"Very well, now the auction begins.
This is still the first batch of goods, don't worry there are still a lot of stars today!
So everyone do what they can.
If it doesn’t work, you can catch it by yourself! But then you have to be careful of the Ministry of Magic of Ugly Country!”
Old Fury's words made everyone in the audience laugh.
But it also made the atmosphere a lot easier.
"The starting price is not Peng!"
Old Fry said casually.
Muggles were of little value, they were like field mice that gave birth to brood after brood.
The next few auctions are actually just a warm-up.
Good things have to look at the back.
And the fact is that as he thought, the price increased very slowly.
Basically, it is an increase of a few Sikes.
And when the price reached ten Galleons, no one raised the price.
"Eleven Galleons!"
A voice shouted in the box, and after being blurred, people couldn't tell the men and women in it.
But after this voice, everyone who had been slowly increasing their prices fell silent.
Because there is no need.
It would be a waste of money to buy a material for one Galleon if it was acceptable.
The price/performance ratio is not as good as catching it yourself.
......0
You must know that the monthly salary of the Director of the Ministry of Magic like Arthur Weasley is only fifty Galleons.
Money in the wizarding world is not so easy to earn.
Rich purebloods can buy Bagalon brooms.
And poor ordinary wizards can't even afford to eat.
This is the magic society!
"Well, it's one Galleon!
Is there any more? These people are very physically fit.
And neither smoked that cocoa powder.
It is a good material for experiments. "
After asking a few words casually, seeing that no one needed it, he rang the hammer and announced the ownership of the ten Muggles.
The whole process seemed extraordinarily random.
Then the cage was pushed down.
Lift it up and replace it with a new cage.
The same person is also five males and five females.
"You bought these Muggles to serve as servants?
In fact, Dom and Toby are enough for the family.
Muggles are too young and clumsy to do many things well.
These are for wizarding families who can't afford house-elves. "
Augustus said casually.
There was no anger or other emotions at Braun's actions.
In her time, she had seen cruelties even more cruel than now.
"No grandma, I want to try human body alchemy..."
He said without hiding.
After all, I will definitely not be able to hide it from my grandmother when I do the experiment.
Rather be honest.
"Experiment? Human body alchemy?"
Augustus raised his eyebrows.
"Professor Nicolas May to you?"
"Well, I figured it out myself.
Braun said awkwardly.
You can't expose your bronze book.
"Well, if you have an idea, experiment with it.
Augustus didn't care.
This calm attitude made some of Braun's prepared reasons useless.
I had to sit quietly on the high platform and watch.
From time to time, Braun bought some unique and rare alchemy materials one after another.
These are things he has never seen before.
I plan to use it in future experiments.
And as the lot is sold piece by piece.
It's finally time for the finale.
Even the old wizard named Fury on the stage looked serious.
I saw two girls holding the cushions.
An extremely small egg was placed on it.
The eggs are patterned with blotches like dried tears.
"This is the egg of a divining bird, and it is well known that the number of laying birds is very rare.
Appears only locally in Elland.
Called the Phoenix of Elland.
They are the prophets of death and the best companions of the prophets and fortune-tellers.
A short introduction lets everyone know its value.
Then the official auction began.
Low price of 100 Galleons, start price now!"
"Two hundred Galleons!"
"five hundred!"
"one thousand!"
"I offer two thousand!"
Prices continued to climb.
And Braun in the box became anxious.
"Isn't grandma going to raise the price?"
Just listening to the other party's introduction, Braun knew that this was the goal of his grandmother's participation in the auction this time.
But now that the price was two thousand, the other party still didn't make any move.
Braun couldn't help but start to get anxious.
"Don't worry, it's still early!"
Augustus tasted the black tea in the box and said lightly. .
