In the auction hall.

“Welcome to the auction of Bone City.”

An enchanting and sexy beauty stood at the forefront of the auction table, she was the auctioneer this time.

“The first auction item is the work of Kevin, a famous sculptor in the county town Dream of White.”

“The starting price: 50 gold coins, one raise of 5 gold coins at a time.”

Behind the glass cover was a delicate pearl necklace, under which there was a shiny luminous pearl. Under the light of the luminous pearl, the necklace emitted a milky white luster, which was very beautiful.

Hearing the introduction, the crowd immediately became lively.

“It’s Master Kevin’s work!”

“My wife happens to need a pair of the necklace. I want this one!”

Looking at the excited people in the hall, Locke was confused. Perhaps it was because he had seen a lot of Hephaestus carvings, but now when he looked at the pearl necklace, Locke felt that it was just so-so.

Athena, who was standing next to him, also had a look of disgust on her face.

“Fifty-five gold coins!”

“Sario, you want to buy the necklace of Master Kevin with 55 gold coins. Are you dreaming? I will pay 70 gold coins.”

“Eighty gold coins!”



In the end, the necklace was sold for 100 gold coins.

Locke was surprised to hear the final price. Are these aristocrats so rich? To spend 100 gold coins on a common necklace.

Locke felt the decline of the Capet family again. The count family had only a few thousand gold coins in savings. Perhaps his family couldn’t even compare with some viscount family.

Strictly speaking, Count Capet was also a civilian. He knew that the people’s livelihood was poor, so he often commuted tax. When encountering some disasters, he would pay his own money to save the victims.

Although Locke sighed, he didn’t mean to blame Count Capet at all. He was even proud of Count Capet.

The auction was still going on.

Half an hour later, Locke began to feel bored. He found that all the items on the auction were luxury goods.

In the auction field, an auction item was sold, and the attendants brought a cage covered with black cloth.

With one hand supporting her chin, Athena looked at the cage with eyes flickering, lost in thought.

Under everyone’s gaze, the auctioneer uncovered the black cloth. Under the black cloth was an iron cage, in which there was a fiery red bird, only half the size of a palm.

The bird’s eyes were red and kept beating the iron cage, but in front of the hard subway cage, any struggle was in vain.

“This is a flame bird cub.”

“Everyone knows that an adult flame bird is a level-2 magical beast. Possessing this flame bird is equivalent to having a powerful level-2 mage.”

“Take it down, and the flame bird will become the strongest power of your family!”

The auctioneer’s words were very ingenious, praising the strengths and avoiding the shortcomings. She portrayed the advantages of the flame bird simply and clearly.

“The starting price is 500 gold coins. Each bid will be no less than 50 gold coins.”

After describing the advantages of the flame bird, the auctioneer began to offer the base price.

However, although the auctioneer had boasted, no one bid for it. They could afford 500 gold coins, but they were not idiots.

Not to mention whether this cub had the chance to become a level-2 magical beast or not, even if it could become a level-2 magical beast, it would take a long time. Moreover, the resources of a level-2 magical beast needed were not something an ordinary noble family could support.

The hall was silent for more than 10 seconds.

“550 gold coins.”

A deep voice came from the third floor.

“Yes, Sir Castellan.”

Looking at the direction of the private room, the people below instantly knew the identity of the bidder.

Now, the others were even less interested in the flame bird. No one dared to compete with Sir Castellan for a useless thing.

Of course, Locke didn’t want to raise the price. Even if the bird grew up, it was only a level-2 magical beast, which was totally out of his eyes.

“Buy this bird.”

However, just as the auctioneer shouted for the second time, Athena said to Locke.

“600 gold coins.”

Hearing Athena’s words, Locke shouted without hesitation.

“How dare someone bid with Sir Castellan!”

“It seems that the voice is also from the third floor. This time to bid, did he have a conflict with Sir Castellan?”

When they heard Locke’s voice, they were shocked at first, and then the whole room was in an uproar.

“Let’s wait and see. How dare you offend Sir Castellan?”

Some of them even chuckled and were ready to watch a good show.

To everyone’s surprise, just when they thought Sir Castellan was going to get angry, there was a chuckle of Sir Castellan in the private room. “Mr. Capet, since you like this flame bird, I’ll make you happy and give it to you.”

“It’s Locke Capet!”

Hearing the name shouted by Sir Castellan, everyone froze again, after yesterday’s experience, Locke’s weight in their hearts skyrocketed.

“Thank you, Sir Castellan.”

Turning in the direction of Donahue’s private room, Locke smiled and thanked him.

Even Sir Castellan didn’t participate in the bidding, and the others didn’t ask for a snub and bid with Locke.

Locke bid the flame bird smoothly.

In just a short while, the servant of the treasure pavilion brought the flame bird up.

“The flame bird is irritable. Before you tame it…”

The servant was stunned with his eyes wide open as if he had seen something incredible.

It turned out that Athena had opened the door of the cage, but the usually irritable flame bird didn’t seem to be about to riot at all. Instead, it flew intimately to Athena’s hand.

“You may leave now.”

Locke said to the servant who stood still with a smile.

After the servant left, Locke asked curiously, “Is there anything special about this flame bird?”

“Don’t you think it’s cute?”

Athena teased the flame bird and said without looking back.

Cute? Locke’s mouth twitched. Well, that was indeed a good reason.

Stroking the flame bird’s head, Athena continued, “In addition to its good-looking appearance, it also has the Phoenix blood in its body.”

“Phoenix bloodline?”

Shocked, Locke walked up to Athena.

The flame bird lay in the palm of Athena’s hand, rubbing its little head against hers.

‘This little guy has the Phoenix bloodline? I’ve never heard that the flame bird has the Phoenix bloodline.’

Looking at the chirping flame bird, Locke was confused in his mind. ‘Is it not a flame bird, but the people of the treasure pavilion mistook it?’

Anyway, he had benefited!

After all, Phoenix was one of the most powerful races in the world. Even if he had a little blood power, he would still be very powerful.

After biding the flame bird, Locke and Athena didn’t want to stay more and decided to leave the treasure pavilion.

On the second day, Locke and others had already set out, preparing to go back to Lister.

On the way for Locke and the others towards Lister, the other team was more than 200 miles away from Lister.

It was a team with 16 people. They walked fast and orderly. Obviously, they were well-trained.

The leader was an old man with white hair. He had a cold face and sharp eyes. It seemed that it was unusual for Locke Capet to defeat Monroe, who was a level-2 mage.

However, he dared to provoke the Brandon family. Locke Capet, just waited for the death!
