Chapter 304: The Main Event
"Hiss!"
Even in the cage, the dark elf bared her teeth at the high elf.
The dark elf was making movements that showed she was ready to attack. Those who understood could see this was the typical starting move of a thief, aiming for a quick kill.
The dark elf’s eyes held a hint of murderous intent; she completely ignored the people around her, focused only on the high elf, as if killing her was the only thing that mattered.
In contrast, the high elf looked terrified, curled up, and did not want to make contact with the dark elf at all.
Karoso frowned, a High Elf fears a Dark Elf?
Just as the netizens said, this High Elf is strange; it’s probably not a normal High Elf.
On the stage, Merlin straightened up.
During this auction, even she suppressed her power to the seventh tier and used a seventh-tier deck.
She took on someone else’s identity and quietly came to the auction, with the goal being the High Elf.
In theory, levels are irreversible, but Merlin is an ancient being who has survived, and she understands all sorts of strange things, including odd spells.
This is the biggest difference between elves and humans at the same level; humans have a shorter lifespan. Even at the eighth tier, they cannot live beyond two hundred years, and at the ninth tier, unless they take that next step, living beyond two hundred is the limit.
In a limited lifetime, even with the boost of Arcane Intellect, how much can humans really learn?
Elves are different; what they have is time.
Especially the female elves, in this world, female elves live much longer than male elves.
"High Elf and dark elf together? This…"
"When they see each other, they will probably fight, it’s a deadly rivalry."
"This is just too beautiful, isn’t it?"
"If I bring this back…"
"I can’t take it anymore!"
"No way, no one can take this from me, I want to buy it!"
"Among these elves, there is an extremely rare dark elf…" The beautiful woman smiled and said, "Dark elves are very rare now, it’s hard to even see one, let alone catch one."
"We must keep the source of this dark elf a secret."
"And this High Elf… Hehe, everyone can rest assured, she has no identity as a black household; she just became an adult this year, and no elf village can hold her accountable."
"I believe everyone knows that dark elves and High Elves are bitter enemies; it is normal that this High Elf hasn’t learned any battle skills yet. How to make them get along harmoniously will depend on everyone’s methods."
"I am sure many people have an image in their minds, that is, dark elves and High Elves serving you together… This is your kind of romance, gentlemen!"
"These two elves are original, not trained at all; they are bundled together with a starting bid of 10,000 Magic Crystal Coins, and each bid must increase by at least 1,000."
Karoso stroked his chin; it seems that my card really is a bit over the top.
Ten thousand Magic Crystal Coins correspond to the auction items being worth around tens of millions of Forged Coins, while my item…
Tsk, I should have known to sell it in the VIP area.
At first, Karoso thought selling it for two hundred thousand would be good, but now he feels that one million five hundred thousand is a loss.
This is related to the education Karoso received; he is a pragmatist and doesn’t understand why the so-called first item is so valuable—aren’t the effects of the later items the same?
If a piece of clothing costs thousands of Forged Coins, he can understand that, but this symbolic item has its price raised so high…
"Twenty thousand!" A man with bad intentions couldn’t hold back any longer.
"Twenty-two thousand…"
"Twenty-six thousand…"
"Fifty thousand!" Merlin called out a price in one go.
The people present became much quieter.
After all, these two fairies were just for fun, and if they were too expensive, it wouldn’t be worth it, no matter how rare they were; almost anything would do.
Soon, Merlin bought the two fairies for fifty thousand Magic Crystal Coins.
There was another person at the scene watching coldly, quietly observing the auction.
If Karoso looked closely, he would see that a servant was his sister, who he had noticed before, wearing light clothing.
Although there were many good items in the auction later, even two that sold for over a hundred thousand, which came from the VIP area, Karoso had no interest at all.
By letting Aileen see the knight being auctioned, he had achieved his goal.
"Well, today another honored guest has become our true VIP, a friend of the Corleone family," the auctioneer smiled. "The next auction will be held in three days, and this time, I can make an exception and tell everyone about two items that will definitely be in the next auction!"
"We want to try something new; this auction will be held in two places at the same time."
"A sixth-tier dark elf thief and a sixth-tier elven wizard."
"Please note, it’s an elven wizard, not a Nature Mage!"
"This elven wizard is very old, over six hundred years, and has a vast amount of knowledge."
"The dark elf is about the same age and is also an experienced thief."
"These two people were found on a deserted island, and they have not registered their identities; they are both living under the radar!"
"In their minds, there may be some unknown secrets about why they stayed on that island for so long…"
"All of this can only be uncovered by someone who can buy their trust!"
Merlin’s heart tightened; these two were the main focus.
The fairy that had disappeared for so long, she must find her.
However, she did not have the strength to confront the Corleone family.
Money? Merlin has money, but she is not rich enough to rival a nation.
A person like her, who makes an honest living, has not saved much wealth even after all this time. For example, someone who evades taxes would earn more than she could with a regular salary, even if she worked since the time of Qin Shi Huang!
Moreover, Merlin has to earn and spend at the same time; as one of the few old fairies, most of her money goes to support her kin to ensure the Elven people do not vanish.
……
The auction finished, and Karoso carried the unconscious Aileen outside.
After deducting the five percent from the auction, he earned one million four hundred twenty-five thousand Magic Crystal Coins, enough to support his army for now.
Since Karoso made the most money today, Rio specially came out to see him off.
"I can’t believe you dared to sell this card…" Rio said, smiling, "You were right there, and everyone knows this card was invented in Canglang Province. It won’t be hard to guess this one came from you. Aren’t you afraid of being targeted?"
"I live in the Church of Dawn Goddess, and I welcome anyone with bad intentions anytime."
"Ha, you have guts! I’ll definitely come to see you in three days, my friend!"
"Sorry, I won’t be free that day. I’ve made enough. I only like to earn money, not spend it."
