Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Robbio was also a mage, but his limited potential ant that he couldn’t have many accomplishnts in terms of magic. After hearing Lin Li’s introduction about the benefits of the Myth Potion, Robbio’s eyes widened and lit up. As a mage with limited potential, nobody was clearer about what increasing ntal strength ant than him.
“However, this is my first ti making this potion. So, I cannot guarantee anything. If anyone suffered from any repercussions after drinking this potion, you need to find at the Tower of Dusk imdiately. Maybe you can still be rescued,” Lin Li reminded kindheartedly.
“But...” Hearing this “however”, Robbio was stunned. 10,000,000 gold coins! He didn’t know if Master Hoffman would pay for this potion. However, he had followed Master Hoffman’s order to buy whatever potion Lin Li had made at all costs. Yet, since the potion’s effect wasn’t guaranteed, he couldn’t repay the 10,000,000 gold coins even if he sold himself!
Robbio didn’t have the mood to sit still anymore. He said goodbye to Lin Li and left the room anxiously.
William was rather pleased with the new record-breaking auction. As for the effect of the potion, that wasn’t sothing he needed to worry about. He wondered if the treasure from the Elven Kingdom could break another record. He hadn’t been in such a good mood for a while.
First, it was an Origin Potion which allowed people to learn five magic powers that broke the record of the Ti Consignnt Store for many years. A mysterious man had bought it at the whopping 3,000,000 gold coins. Everyone thought that this record wouldn’t be broken for many years.
However, much to everyone’s surprise, the very next item auctioned was a naless potion concocted by an unknown mage. This mage didn’t even specify the effect of the potion clearly, yet many rich and powerful factions competed during the bidding.
This auction today would be destined to be unforgettable for everyone who attended. The new record of 3,000,000 gold coins was broken after just 15 minutes. Afterwards, every bid surpassed the record a little. Everyone on the first floor turned from surprised to shocked, and finally totally numb. A record of 10,000,000 gold coins was not just a record for the Ti Consignnt Store or Anril, but rather a first in history.
However, the the of this auction wasn’t just selling the Tower of Dusk’s wares. The real thing hadn’t even co out yet. Everyone suspected if William still had the confidence to take out the so-called mysterious treasure after the record-breaking auction of 10,000,000 gold coins.
Actually, William was rather nervous during the auction just now. If that Myth Potion hadn’t been auctioned off just now, William’s reputation would have certainly been damaged. However, William wasn’t a fool to auction such a strange item without introduction for no reason—he had his own intentions behind doing so.
The news of high-level pharmacists in the Tower of Dusk had spread throughout the Breezy Plains. Every faction sward towards this newly established Guild of Magic like sharks that slled blood. Everyone had the sa intention: to poach those pharmacists for their own faction from a small influence like the Tower of Dusk.
However, William had noticed sothing else. The several rich and powerful families didn’t do anything amidst this fierce competition for pharmacists. This was truly unbelievable, since these rich and powerful families usually couldn’t resist the temptation of pharmacists, much less high-level pharmacists.
What those rich and powerful families were worried about was the mysterious pharmaceutics organization behind the Tower of Dusk and the young President of the Guild of Magic. William had done detailed research on this President Felic, but he got more confused the more he researched. He seed to have found out a lot—that Felic ca from the Jarrosus Guild of Magic, what he did in Alanna, how he got the opportunity to establish the Guild of Magic in the Breezy Plains, etcetera. However, William still couldn’t figure out who he exactly was in the end.
From the information that he had collected, William could see that this President Felic was sowhat associated with those rich and powerful families. However, he had no chance of asking directly exactly what their relationship was. If they were close, why didn’t the rich and powerful families speak up for the Tower of Dusk when the other factions attempted to raid the pharmacists? Even the Malfa Family who had participated in the destruction of the Syer Bandits didn’t do anything.
William actually wanted to use this ridiculous auction as an opportunity to know how important Mage Felic was to those rich and powerful families. Of course, he wouldn’t risk his long accumulated reputation for sothing so trivial.
Though William didn’t know the actual effect of that potion, he could see with his experience as a master appraiser that the potion was extraordinary. Moreover, even if nobody bid for it, he could always say, “Let us welco Mage Felic to introduce the effect of his potion!”
Although he realized the extraordinariness of the potion, William was still very surprised that it could fetch a price of 10,000,000 gold coins. However, unlike the shock from the audience, William had prepared to break the record with that mysterious treasure. Even with the new record of 10,000,000 gold coins, William was still confident that his last item would fetch an even higher price.
After everyone had cald down, William stood emotionless at the center of the stage as if the 10,000,000-gold-coin deal had nothing to do with him. Everyone in the audience admired William greatly for that. No wonder William was the most esteed master in the Breezy Plains. He hadn’t depended on luck to get to where he was today given his way of managing the Ti Consignnt Store.
While people admired William, they were more curious about the main course of this auction—the mysterious treasure from the Elven Kingdom—even though they didn’t think anything could possibly break the record of 10,000,000 gold coins.
“I am extrely honored that such a record could be achieved during this auction. However, let us not forget the the of today’s auction. Yes, the mysterious treasure from the Elven Kingdom! I am sure it will end this auction on a perfect note!” Unlike during the auction of the potion just now, William finally behaved like an auctioneer now.
A rather heavy gray tal box was lowered onto the display stage. Its exterior was adorned with rose-gold mageweath, and light waves traveled through them. Just looking at this box, many people were curious what was inside. Though they didn’t know what the mageweath was for, they knew that the use of mageweath ant that the item inside was definitely impressive.
Sitting in the guest room, Lin Li’s eyes narrowed slightly upon seeing the so-called mysterious treasure from the Elven Kingdom being loaded onto the stage. While other people didn’t know, how could a Guru of Inscription and Blacksmith Guru like him not understand what it ant?
The tal from which the box was made was Frost-gray Thorium that was extrely insulating to magical elents. Though Frost-gray Thorium was rare, it didn’t have many uses. Most of the ti, it was used to insulate magical elents, stop the corrosion of items by magical elents, or prevent the dispersion of certain item’s magical elents. As for the sealing mageweath on the box, it was also used to insulate magical elents, and was often used interchangeably with Frost-gray Thorium.
Clearly, the use of both Frost-gray Thorium and sealing mageweath were for preventing the dispersion of magical elents of sothing in the box. Yet the problem was that any of these two could serve the purpose of insulating magical elents. Now that both were used together, Lin Li could still feel slight waves of magical elents from the box. How powerful did this magical object have to be that even this box couldn’t totally seal off its magical wave?
“This is the next item we will be auctioning: a treasure that’s been passed down to generations of elves for countless years. As for its origins... Sorry, I can’t reveal the owner’s na due to his requirents. I seek your understanding. Now, let us appreciate this treasure from the Elven Kingdom!” William walked towards the box and opened it on all four sides.
After the box was opened, everyone couldn’t help but gasp. It wasn’t because of so treasure inside the box, but rather the fact that the box was a dozen centiters thick. Rather than saying that it was a box, it was more accurate to say it was a piece of tal with a hole dug inside. No wonder people struggled to carry it up the stage.
Lin Li secretly shook his head. The density of Frost-gray Thorium was very high, and ordinary thickness was enough to insulate magical elents. However, this box was so much thicker. No wonder Warriors carried it up—a normal person wouldn’t even be able to move it an inch.
Everyone was shocked at this outrageous box. However, they were dumbfounded again upon seeing the so-called treasure in the box. They even thought William was joking with them to put it up for auction.
When the box was open and the so-called treasure from the Elven Kingdom was revealed, everyone sighed. No doubt it was from the Elven Kingdom! Was it for magic or an ingredient waiting to be processed? Or maybe it was a herb from the Elven Kingdom? What laid in the box was a branch.
