Darkening Guardian Knight

"Hey... the person who arranged the black magic circle took the initiative to "open the door"? Kate put her chin in her hand and thought, "Or is it some kind of natural ability of hers?" "

"I don't know." Assas sighed, "Anyway, the girl who saved me went deep into the enemy formation alone, and then didn't come back for a long time. Until the end of the black magic circle, a man in white lifted the mysterious girl's body from it. Go out and burn her body in front of us, ruining the last hope..."

"It's a sad story." Kate commented after listening to it, "but since she is really dead, why do you suspect me? Or do you simply think of me as her substitute ?”

"I... don't know." Assas pursed his lips, and replied with difficulty, "Maybe it's because I feel that the magical girl will not die easily. Even in such a desperate situation, she still has the possibility of survival. Or, as you said, I just want to find someone who can replace her and be able to repay her favor."

"You are very honest, Assas." Kate praised calmly, "I know the matter, and I can understand why you are obsessed with me. But unfortunately, I must also answer you honestly, I am really not you someone to look for."

"Sure enough." Seeing the girl's serious expression, Assas didn't feel any surprise.

In fact, he himself knew that the possibility of meeting that girl again was very slim.

But he just couldn't stop thinking about it, and would rather believe in that poor little hope.

Kate looked at the boy whose color had faded, and her mood was not calm.At this moment, she was almost sure that the girl who helped Assas was the real Kate Christian.

And Fernant probably regarded himself as a substitute for the original Kate, so he taught himself the method of disguise.

"It's really a trick of fate." Kate sighed.

She didn't dislike Fernand's behavior, because if it weren't for this, she wouldn't be able to get to where she is now. Kate decided to take this as the price of learning the camouflage method, bravely bear his thoughts, and continue to walk her own path.

In the silence full of deep thought, the two sat for a while, and found that the noise outside the door gradually weakened, and finally became completely quiet.

"It's about to start." Kate reminded, sitting next to the rooftop, overlooking the entire auction house.

"Ah."

Hearing Kate's voice, Assas came back to his senses and nodded slightly to show that he knew.

It seems that he has little interest in this auction.

Recalling that story seemed to tear away his old scars, and Kate's final denial added new wounds, and these wounds would not heal for a while.

The auctioneer of the auction is a young and energetic young man. He appeared on the stage with a bright smile and announced to everyone with his voice magic:

"Welcome everyone to come and participate in this auction hosted by the Illuminati. Before the auction begins, let me declare that most of the items in this auction are from Mr. Kui Julis, the Master of the Illuminati General Assembly."

As he said that, Guanghui gathered in a corner of the venue.

Standing there was the examiner who presided over the third round of the morning Star Wars, the powerful Brilliance of the Illuminati, Kui Jolis!

Opening of the Fifth Auction

Brilliance is dressed in the Illuminati uniform, head to toe white, making him look extremely energetic.

But it seemed that he was not happy to be exposed to the light, he waved his hand to the auctioneer indifferently, and then simply disappeared in place.

"It's a threat..." Kate saw Qiu Lisi's move, and quickly realized that it was a slap in the face. "Is he trying to warn some schemers not to engage in small tricks at the auction? Indeed, the method of disappearing in place just now is amazing. It feels like a combat technique similar to the teleportation of light..."

The teleportation of light is a high-level footwork among the light attribute combat skills, whose effect is quite close to that of teleportation space magic.

There are two versions of this combat skill, the master level and the legendary level. The specific effect is to superimpose the speed of light on the user, and use its terrifying speed to create an effect similar to teleportation.

"But, why is there no breath at all? The surrounding elemental forces don't fluctuate at all, as if no one has ever existed there." Kate was puzzled.

Even if it moves in space, there will usually be traces.

"What? Even you, who have comprehended the mysteries of light in the third round, can't see through his tricks?" Asas's voice suddenly sounded from beside him, which surprised Kate.

"Hey, did you come back to your soul so quickly?"

"Hehe, do I look like the kind of person who would be hit hard by this?" Assas raised his hair and said arrogantly, "It's been so long, the tears that should have been shed have long been dried up, just a little bit It’s just a memory.”

From his tough tone on the outside, Kate heard a soft part, she smiled in her heart, without poking it, and moved the topic to the original place by the way:

"In the third round, although I have mastered the so-called "Profound Truth of Light", I am just getting started, and I can't be compared with the Brilliance Warrior who has been immersed in it for a long time. "

"That's right, otherwise, how could the Luminous One become the pillar-level force of the Illuminati." Assas resumed his usual expression, and said, "As far as I know, it should be a combination of "Light Teleportation" and "Light-shielding Camouflage". "

"It's actually a combination of combat skills!" Assas' words made Kate realize instantly. She hadn't thought about this possibility before, and fell into a misunderstanding.

Combined combat skills refer to the interleaving and use of multiple combat skills that can cooperate with each other, displaying them like a combat skill, which is similar to the compound magic in magic.

In fact, because warriors are more flexible than magicians, the utilization rate of combined combat skills is much higher than compound magic.

Kate didn't consider this possibility, mainly because although she has an extraordinary level of martial arts, she doesn't often use combined combat skills——

To be precise, it is because she has very few powerful combat skills, and there are no good chain skills at all.

"How do you know he's using a combined combat technique?" Kate asked along the way.

"Have you forgotten what my family does?" Assas asked back, curling his lips. "The Illuminati often use this trick, and people with a little bit of status have already seen through it. But it's okay to use it to bluff some novices."

"Xiaobai?" Kate's voice was suddenly terribly cold.

Seeing that the black-haired girl seemed a little angry, Assas quickly added: "Hey, I'm not referring to you, I'm referring to those bandits and thieves who play tricks."

"Hum..." Kate let out a long breath, and didn't say much, and secretly shifted her gaze back to the center of the stage.

On the meeting stage, the auctioneer saw that Qiu Lisi's disappearance had caused a lot of shock, so he laughed and said: "It seems that Mr. Hui Zhe doesn't want to show his face too much, so it's not too late, we can start now." This auction is up."

With a big wave of his hand, the curtain behind him opened, revealing a delicate dark golden long sword: "This is our first lot, the Bright Knight Saber!"

"Knight's sword! It's the first lot?!" Kate saw it, her eyes glowed, and she wanted it very much.

After she came to this continent, she could find very little information about knights, and weapons dedicated to knights were even rarer, so she was very excited.

Assas gave her hints before, but she just listened to it at that time, and didn't really feel the need.But now after seeing the real thing, she realized that this sword might be what she was looking for!

"It looks like you like it very much. Do you want it?" Sensing the mood of the black-haired girl, Assas tentatively asked.

"En." Kate didn't hide her desire for this weapon, "This is a light-attribute knight's sword. It looks like it's at least A-level, but I don't know the price."

It was the first time Assas saw Kate's mood fluctuate to this point. He looked at the black-haired girl, then at the knight sword, smiled and said:

"A-grade equipment costs millions of dollars, and ordinary people can't afford it. But as far as I know, there aren't too many practitioners who understand chivalry in the world. Usually, this kind of equipment is purchased by warrior professions. So even if it has a good historical background, the price probably won't be too high."

"That would be great," Kate replied.

Among all the professions, fighters are indeed the cheapest.Especially low-level weapons, many of them are purely violent blunt weapons or sharp sharp weapons, which cannot cooperate with natural elemental forces, do not require enchanting, and are easy to craft, so the price is also low.

Section [-] The Old Knight's Sword

"If it's really priced at the price of ordinary A-level fighter weapons, it will only cost a few hundred thousand." Assas estimated.

"But that's hundreds of thousands..." Kate smiled wryly.

Although she earned a lot of money from duels in the past month, it was far from hundreds of thousands. After paying her and Joey's living expenses, there were only about [-] to [-] Bright Coins left.

Kate also knew that buying this A-level knight sword was a luxury.

She originally only wanted to buy a C-rank weapon.

After all, as long as it is a graded weapon, it is much stronger than the mortal iron sword she has been using all along.

However, after the silence, the auctioneer on the stage paused, and in the midst of everyone's attention, he loudly announced a price that stunned everyone: "The starting price—one hundred thousand Guangming coins!"

weird!This base price is too cheap!Compared with the expected price of A-level weapons, this is completely the price of cabbage!

"How could it be so cheap?" Assas was also surprised, he thought for a while, and guessed the intention of the price, "Could it be that the seller deliberately did this, hoping to use the bidder's bid to hype the value of this sword up?"

"Probably? But if this is the case, it would be more gimmick to start the auction from scratch." Kate said, "Anyway, the final transaction price will definitely be very high."

"Maybe the [-] yuan is just to set a threshold. It's safer than starting at zero yuan, so as to avoid some uninformed guys from disrupting the situation. Having said that, I have already seen some people ready to move." Assas overlooked the audience and had a panoramic view of most of the dynamics between the venues.

Only a few loud voices clashed like a battle, and the bids of "20" and "30" came one after another.

Although the auction has not yet started, there are already several bidders.They bid each other, and in the end they raised the reserve price to 93 before the auction!

Assas sighed: "This is the first lot, and the smell of gunpowder is so strong. Isn't the operation of the Illuminati too powerful?"

"But the auctioneer hasn't announced the start of the auction for a long time. Maybe there are still things that haven't been clarified?" Kate found that the atmosphere at the scene was very hot, but the auctioneer didn't take the opportunity to hammer the hammer to start the auction. She felt that the sword might not be auctioned at a reserve price for hype. "I'm afraid, this sword is flawed."

"Well, this explanation is reasonable." Assas quickly figured out the reason, "The incomplete A-level equipment is indeed the same price. See the auctioneer's explanation."

Sure enough, upon seeing this, the auctioneer raised his hand to signal the guests to be quiet, then he sighed and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the auction has not yet started. Please listen to my detailed introduction of this sword before considering whether to pay such a high price."

Hearing what he said, those who were planning to participate in the auction fell silent instantly.

Because looking at the atmosphere, there is obviously something wrong with this sword, and it does not have the value of an ordinary A-level weapon.

"This sword is a product of the old era, and it was used by a bright knight in the early days of the Illuminati. However, after time has passed, this sword has lost its style at that time, and the original golden blade has dimmed a lot.

And according to research, originally this sword can increase the user's power of light attribute elements by 30.00%.But for historical reasons, this effect no longer exists now. "

The auctioneer's tone was also a little helpless, "Fortunately, due to its excellent material, this sword is not easy to damage, otherwise it would not be able to survive until now. Its strength is comparable to weaker S-level weapons. Of course, S-level weapons are special. , far better than this sword."

"So, this sword is not so much an A-level weapon, but more like a collection from the old era. So its base price is very cheap as you can see."

The auctioneer caressed the fringe of the knight's sword, then turned to face the crowd and said, "But everything about the old era is of great value, and the starting price of [-] is not too high. If you buy it, you will definitely earn..."

"I've finished what I need to say about this knight sword, so what's next..." The auctioneer walked back to the stage, raised his gavel and tapped it on the wooden base, making a crisp sound, "The first lot, the old-era Bright Knight Sword, has a base price of [-] Guangming coins, and each increase is no less than [-] Guangming coins. The auction begins!"

"One hundred thousand!"

"15 million!"

"18 million!"

The price of the Knight's Sword was slowly increasing, but it didn't grow as crazy as before.After all, this is not a real A-level weapon, without additional effects, it is more of an expensive collectible.

Although the collections of the old era are precious, they are not lacking.

After all, there are too many high-level equipment preserved from the old days, and there are many legendary series equipment that are stronger than A-level.

Of course, based on the quality of the sword itself, its price should not be lower than that of inferior A-level equipment, but that's all, it can't be much higher.

"Sturdy sword, another item from the old era..." Kate stared at the dark golden long sword on the stage, her eyes flickering.

But the desire for this sword in my heart has diminished a lot.

Assas curled his lips: "If it is just used as an ornament, the value of this sword is not that great. An A-level blank weapon is really useless."

"Well. Now most of the A-level equipment has additional effects to some extent. Weapons that do not need to be enchanted generally have special effects that come with the material, such as "sharpness" and "crushing". "

Kate also agrees, "However, the weapons of the old era are not very simple, and it is not ruled out that it may return to A-level after polishing."

"It makes sense, but in that case, it's a bit of a gamble." Assas said with a slight smile, "Would you like to take a gamble and see if it has a chance to be restored to A-level?"

"No, I'll just say it casually. If it could be repaired, the Illuminati would have done it by itself." Kate replied rationally, "If even the Illuminati can't be repaired, it must be hopeless."

"Well, that's right." Assas held his chin and asked Kate very seriously, "But, do you want it?"

Kate frowned in confusion: "What do you mean?"

"I'm asking, do you want this sword?" The boy's expression, movements and voice were full of temptation, "If you want... I can buy it for you!"

Section [-] The Old Knight's Sword

"Wow, don't do this...it's even more disgusting than before." Kate said with a slight twitch of her mouth, "I've already said that I'm not the person you're looking for. You don't have to be too nice to me."

Assas waved his hand and said with a chuckle, "No, no, no, don't get me wrong. I'm not willing to spend money for you for that reason, I just want to lend a helping hand to my friends."

"Lending a helping hand to a friend?" Kate still had doubts about the boy's purpose, and after much consideration, she declined, "Forget it, I accept your wish, I can't afford this gift."

"Hey, you are too cautious." Assas failed to flatter and scratched his head depressedly, "Well, if you need Kate, you can borrow money from me, so you should be able to accept it in your heart right?"

"Borrowing money..." Kate murmured, lost in thought.

Unlike the tough attitude on the surface, she really needs money urgently now.

However, accepting the gift from Assas would cause too many follow-up troubles, and it would not be easy to deal with, so it was not considered.

After all, if rumors spread like the confession incident last time, it will break the normal life she has finally calmed down, which is what she doesn't want to see.

The most important thing is that after she realized that Assas was interested in the original Kate Christian, she was even more unwilling to take advantage of it, which would make her feel indebted to both Assas and the real Kate .

However, loans between friends can be considered.With his earning speed, sooner or later he will be able to repay the debt.So when Assas made this proposal, Kate was very moved.

"Then please... Thank you very much!" Kate finally chose to accept Assas' kindness.

After thinking about it, she still didn't want to miss this opportunity to get a genuine knight sword.

Assas was also very happy to see that Kate agreed to borrow money.To him, the money to buy a piece of A-level equipment is nothing at all.

Even if it can't be a wife, it won't hurt to use it to make a beautiful and potential friend.

Assas smiled, drew up a contract document with his mental power, passed it to Kate, and said, "This is an IOU, just sign it. I will help you complete the auction."
