Magic pet's black technology lair

Chapter 487 The First 'Bomb'

Cao Yan turned off the assistant's screen and focused on the stage.

Jiao Muqi has rich experience in hosting auctions, and he speaks concisely and sophisticatedly on stage. He stated a few words about the history of his own auction house and his gratitude to new and old customers in a steady voice, and then turned to the main topic of the auction.

"The first lot we are about to launch is the most precious thing I have seen in my nearly 40 years of work. I am sure that this auction will be remembered by everyone because of its appearance."

The broad and fat Jiao Muqi was full of energy, and a few simple words aroused the interest of the audience.

He stretched out his hand and pointed sideways: "Everyone, please look."

The curtain hanging on the auction platform behind him was slowly opened, revealing four young staff behind the stage, dressed in neat black uniforms, pushing a moving auction display table to Jiao Muqi's side.

According to the usual practice, whether the first item in the auction is precious or not will directly determine the next level of the auction.

Therefore, when the first lot appeared, the people who came to the meeting cheered up and looked at the things that were pushed out on the stage.

The item in the first shot was covered under a layer of curtains, and it was impossible to see what it was, which made people quite curious.

At this moment, Jiao Muqi walked up to the lot, grabbed a corner of the curtain, and pulled it off.

This also fully reflects his confidence in this lot. Any foreshadowing is superfluous, so it is so direct.

The curtain was lifted, revealing a watermelon-sized, glass-like spherical container.

The sphere was quietly placed in the center of the display stand. Because it was transparent, one could see a dark green plant inside the sphere, with eight or nine sparse leaves. It seemed to be a branch of some kind of tree.

The strange thing is that even if the branch is placed in the crystal ball on the stage, there is still an irresistible ancient atmosphere and vitality emerging together.

Professionals with keen mental power can also sense a wave of elemental fluctuations of the wood attribute, which is extremely rich.

Some people on the second and third floors unconsciously changed their complexions, staring at the things on the stage thoughtfully.

"This is the first lot carefully selected by our bank for this auction. It is...a branch picked from the World Tree! It is sealed in this crystal ball, and its actual size is larger than what you can see visually. It is much larger, with a length of four feet and one inch, and a diameter about the thickness of an arm. There are nine leaves on it, four of which are intact, and five of which are slightly damaged. Each leaf has a natural magical pattern of wood elements, which can last for a long time Gather elemental magic."

Jiao Muqi's voice fell, and the shooting scene, which was originally a little discussion, suddenly became quiet.

The space where hundreds of people gathered became audible.

The legend about the World Tree has been passed down for a long time.

Almost all professionals have heard the name of the World Tree. According to legend, it is a tree of the gods, the first plant after the birth of the world, and it can be traced back to the origin of all life.

It can be said that the world tree is one of the few mysterious things that have the most legends and the highest reputation in the green jungle world, but almost no one has seen it.

If this is really a branch of the world tree, no one can take it lightly.

Even in the several private rooms on the third floor, some bigwigs who came here just to improve their relationship with Cao Yan and plan to take pictures of a few random things were extremely surprised.Someone suddenly stood up from the seat, looking at the tree trunk on the stage with a solemn expression.

"The branches of the world tree, how could something of this level suddenly appear here?" someone questioned.

Jiao Muqi on the stage barely suppressed the excitement in his heart.This branch of the world tree was taken out by Cao Yan not long ago. When he first saw it, his first reaction was that it could not be a real branch of the world tree. Later, he found someone to conduct a professional magic appraisal, and he was sure. This is the real world tree twig.

Jiao Muqi's old heart was almost tense, his head was short of oxygen, and his face turned green with excitement.After calming down a bit, he also persuaded Cao Yan that even if something of this grade was going to be auctioned, it had to be fully warmed up and publicized in order to attract high-rollers and perfectly sell this branch of the world tree.

Jiao Muqi still remembered that Cao Yan reacted indifferently after he said something about it, and only told him to put it up for auction and not to think about other things.

At this time, Jiao Muqi stood on the stage, facing the eyes of all kinds of people, he stabilized his beating old heart, tried to maintain the proper posture, and said calmly: "Everyone, after getting this world tree branch After entrusting the auction, I specially invited Ms. Sona, the president of the Mage Association to participate in this auction, and conducted an appraisal with other members of the Mage Association. They can confirm that this world tree branch is at least 10 years old It is more than one year old, and the trunk contains abundant regular fragments of wood elements, as well as a special wood-attributed substance, so it can be determined that this is a branch of the world tree..."

Jiao Muqi was eloquent, and took out a magically binding appraisal scroll, on which the beautiful magic words shone brightly, and it was stamped with the official seal of the Mage Association.

This was Jiao Muqi's magic appraisal conducted by someone from the Mage Association who came to participate in the auction temporarily in order to save Cao Yan's face before the auction started.

His few short explanations clearly responded to everyone's doubts.

While Jiao Muqi was speaking, in a private room on the third floor, Sona Meditation Eliza, the president of the Magic City Mage Association, narrowed her eyes slightly with a playful expression.

Originally, she came here in person because of the cooperation between Cao Yan and the Mage Association in the ancient continent, and helped the Mage Association decipher many semiotic problems.

But the appearance of the branches of the world tree surprised her too.

The branches of the World Tree are especially precious to mages. If the branches of the World Tree are used to make a staff, the magical conductivity will be irreplaceable. It only needs to use simple magic alchemy methods to make a staff. A precious staff with a legendary level.

At this time, Sona, the president of the Mage Association, spoke lightly.

She used magic to amplify the sound, and the voice came from the private room, but it could be heard by the audience: "This cut branch is undoubtedly a branch of the World Tree. My Mage Association has an ancient method left over, which can identify the World Tree. Unique attributes. However, it is not the mother tree of the world, the ancestor of all plants and trees in the legend of our green forest world, and the totem sacred tree worshiped by countless ancient people. Otherwise, its age will exceed tens of millions of years, not the current one. More than [-] years old, this is a branch of a young tree of the world tree."

What do you mean?
Isn’t it the legendary World Tree in the Green Jungle World?

Is there more than one World Tree?
A series of questions popped up in the hearts of everyone in the audience.

Sona said again: "According to my analysis, this branch of the world tree may have come from the ancient continent. In a sense, the ancient continent was separated from our world in ancient times, and it can be regarded as an independent small world. It is theoretically possible to produce a world tree. Coupled with the recent birth of the ancient continent, it should have been brought back from the ancient continent."

Cao Yan was amazed, the president of the Magic Association, Sona, is really amazing.She didn't know that the tree branch was provided by Cao Yan, but the analysis was not bad at all.

That World Tree trunk was indeed obtained by Cao Yan on the ancient continent.

During the confrontation with the four-winged gods of the church, the world tree in the core area of ​​the ancient continent was broken and severely injured.

The world tree was later nourished by the core system of the ancient continent. Although it quickly recovered from the damage, the broken trunk was scattered around the core area.

At that time, the big worm was taken away by Cao Yan, and the half-body skeleton soul fire turned into purple flames, frantically looking for the traces of the god corpse and the big worm, and left the core area.

Cao Yan took the opportunity to let the ants go out with the animal trapping balls, and secretly took away most of the broken branches and leaves of the world.

Fishing in troubled waters and wretched development have always been Cao Yan's forte, and every time he reaps good results.

And he took these tree trunks up for auction after consideration in advance.

One is their own auction house. It is not easy for others to find out who commissioned the auction of this tree trunk.Taking a step back, with his current status and technical value in the Pet Masters Association, there is no need to keep everything a secret. Even if someone finds out that it was Cao Yan who brought it out, who can do anything to him?He has no obligation to explain to anyone.

The attitude of being coercive is such a wave. What to do at what stage, the key is a matter of scale.

Conversely, taking out a twig of the world tree for auction will not only elevate the auction to an astonishing height, but it will also be of great benefit in expanding the popularity.It can also be exchanged for a large amount of funds, which is helpful for the next step of development and some things that Cao Yan is conceiving.

The advantages outweigh the disadvantages, there is nothing to hesitate.

What's more, the branch he took out for auction is only a small part, far less than the stock in his hand.

At this time, in the shooting venue, everyone who saw the appraisal results all became excited by coincidence, and many of them blushed.

Even if it is not the world mother tree in the legend of the green jungle world, it is a world tree after all. It is of great value and has a wide range of practical uses. Some people with financial resources are eager to try it.

On the stage, Jiao Muqi said again slowly: "How precious this tree branch is, Jiao will not go into details. Its starting price is set at 8000 million, and each bid must not be less than 100 million..."

Such a high price made the people in the audience stagnate, but compared to the item itself, it was quite a low price.

After the audience was silent for three or four seconds, a voice first came from a private room on the third floor, calm and unwavering: "I will offer [-] million."

The people sitting in the scattered seats on the first floor looked at the third floor in unison.

What kind of hero is this? He has increased the starting price by 2000 million at once. His financial resources are too frightening.

The voice came from private room No. [-] on the third floor. Cao Yan arranged that private room for several ancient families from the Central Region.

These ancient families were rich and powerful, and if they were placed on the earth, they would be equivalent to large chaebols, with a fund of one or two billion yuan. To them, it was actually not a huge sum of money at all, and they just shouted it out.

Cao Yan is going to use this auction to digest a lot of things accumulated in his hands during this period of time, and at the same time make a fortune. Seeing that the branches of the World Tree have a good effect, he thought to himself: You can grab it, the ones in this auction There are still many 'bombs', I hope you have enough money.

He signaled to Wang Li, Director Xiao, and Supervisor Xu that he wanted to go out for a while, then got up and walked out, preparing to go to the private room of Archbishop Binsuo of the Dark Bishop Sect.

There were too many people just now, and it was inconvenient to say some things. Before entering the private room, Bin Suo gave Cao Yan several small glances.

Cao Yan didn't understand what this guy's little eyes were trying to express, so he was going to ask what the hell was going on?
