Start Sanctuary: I stole Athena

Chapter 6 At the auction
The weather in the Great Waterway is unpredictable, but the pure land of the Holy Caesar Empire basically follows the changes of the seasons. In autumn, the sun has quietly set at seven o'clock, night has fallen, and the empire has implemented a curfew at night. At this time, the streets are quiet. Quietly, apart from the patrolling guards, there were only the footsteps of the carriages of the nobles participating in the auction.

Those who can go out at night are the big figures of the empire, so the guards naturally dare not stop them, and the entrance of the Heiqiong Chamber of Commerce is soon full of luxurious carriages.

"Hey! Master, here we are." The carriage also stopped at the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce, and the service staff at the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce consciously moved a small ladder with three steps, and stood on one side respectfully waiting for the noble guests on the carriage. get off.

"Your Highness Ke Lin, long time no see. It's a great honor to see you here."

Come to say hello to Colin.

"How honored is it?" Before Colin could speak, Saori in his arms asked.

The manager's smile immediately froze on his face. He has been the lobby manager for so many years, and this is the first time he has encountered such an unconventional player.

"Well... Anyway, it's a great honor..." But just as the manager was about to continue explaining, he saw that Ke Lin on the opposite side ignored him, and had already put down Yarn and dragged her into the chamber of commerce.

"Huh~" Looking at the backs of Ke Lin and the others, the manager couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. He couldn't afford to provoke them, and the manager really didn't know how to proceed.

After entering the chamber of commerce, Ke Lin and the others were guided by the waiter to Room No. [-], Tianzi, which was at the top of the auction.

The Tianzihao Room is located on the third floor of the Chamber of Commerce. There are only 12 rooms in total. It is the most high-end private room in the auction. Its unique design allows people in the room to overlook every corner of the entire auction. There are also dedicated personnel in the room to serve and provide Exquisite pastries and a variety of high-end drinks.

Soon it was eight o'clock, and with the ringing of the bell, the auction officially started.

"Thank you all distinguished guests for coming. I am also very honored to preside over today's auction. Now I announce that the auction will officially start." A healthy old man in his 50s appeared in the middle of the auction wearing a slim black suit. On the high platform, without much nonsense, he directly held the drumsticks and beat the gongs and drums vigorously, announcing the start of the auction.

The old man's name is Adolf, one of the four directors of the Black Qiong Chamber of Commerce, and today's auctioneer.

"Lot No. 3000, the great pirate and giant axe Xinfuni with a bounty of [-] million Baileys, after our training, it is a good choice whether it is to take care of the home or buy it back to improve the bloodline." The first to appear is A pirate with a height of more than two meters and a muscular body, with iron chains on his hands and feet, walked to the middle of the stand and knelt down. His eyes were gloomy and lifeless, as if he was a walking dead without a soul.

Looking at Xinfuni's muscular body and the unusual bulge between her legs, many aristocratic young women in the audience rubbed their legs with red eyes, as if they were about to eat Xinfuni.

"The starting price is 5000 million beli, and each bid increase must not be less than 100 million beli." Seeing the eagerness of the young women in the audience, Adolf tapped the hammer in his hand, and the entire auction suddenly became lively.

"I offer 5200 Baileys."

"I'll pay 5500 million."

It didn't take long for Xinfenni to be photographed by a lady about 1.6 meters tall and weighing about 200 pounds under the pitying eyes of a group of people.

Seeing his new master, she seemed to be thinking of her own tragic future. Even Xinfuni, who had gloomy eyes, trembled slightly. The auction didn't care, and left the venue directly with Xinfuni.

Soon, the second product was a pearl necklace that was said to have been worn by a king of a certain daughter country, the third product was a princess of a small country, the fourth product was an extremely sharp knife with 50 knives, and the fifth product was treasures. A branch of Adam's family, the sixth product, the flintlock once worn by the legendary great pirate Lockes.

In the end, the deals were settled for 3000 million Baileys, 5500 million Baileys, 2000 million Baileys, 7000 million Baileys, and [-] million Baileys.

There are many rare treasures behind, which were quickly snatched up by everyone. Even Ke Lin used 1200 million Baileys to photograph a top chef from Xihai under Saori's shining eyes.

"The next thing is the last auction item of this auction. The finale product of this auction is also the most precious item in this auction. Mongolian shape." Soon under the eyes of everyone's anticipation, a young woman walked to the center of the stage with a tray covered with a red cloth, lifted the red cloth in the sound of Adolf's introduction, and a long A devil fruit with peculiar patterns appeared in front of everyone.

"Is this the Phantom Beast Devil Fruit? This is the first time I've seen it."

"Yeah, it's also the first time I've seen it, in the form of a raging fruit Beamon, it's scary even thinking about it."

"The Heiqiong Merchant Guild really has great powers. You can get all kinds of devil fruits from phantom beasts."

"It's really a phantom beast." Hearing the discussions in the audience, a trace of surprise flashed across Ke Lin's face in the VIP room.

Although he was prepared in his heart, it was beyond Colin's expectation when he saw this fruit.

This is a phantom beast devil fruit, just like the natural devil fruit, it is likely to be able to cultivate a powerhouse of the first level of the emperor, and even if it is used by a deputy level of the emperor, it can directly break through the mirror and become the emperor. Become the new Supreme in this sea.
