Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 260
After a while, Angel basically got some information about Whitbyton from Anada.

At first, Angor thought that Whitton was not treated well at home, just like most aristocratic families have some dirty things, and Whitbyn might be a outlet for the Duke's family, so he escaped from the Duke's mansion and became a thief in the end. Do the third-rate things.

However, he was wrong. The Whitbyton family that Anada said was harmonious and friendly, and they were definitely a clear stream among the nobles.Although Whibbitton was not an only child, his own brother did not have an unfavorable relationship with him, and Whibbitt was still very favored.

The only thing that Anada said was vague.Since the age of 7, the Duke of Tebichu has forced Whitbyton not to go out. It seems to be a very authoritarian ban, but Tebichu has never prohibited other people from visiting Whitbyton, which is a bit strange.

He is not allowed to go out, but allows outsiders to see Huibden. If you want to be autocratic, you must be autocratic to the end. Why is it only half of the autocracy?It is really weird to give Huibden a channel to spy on the outside world, but not give Huibden the opportunity to contact the outside world.

"Although Whitbyton has been banned for ten years, we also speculate that there is an inside story. But every time I go to see Whitbyton, I find nothing else, and the Duke of Tepicchu is also very kind to me. When Beaton goes out, the Duke will satisfy any other requirements, which is much better than my father." Anada paused, with worry still on her face:

"Because of this, although Whitbyton is almost full now, he has not been in contact with the outside world for a long time. In some aspects of mind and knowledge, he is similar to a child of seven or eight years old. In fact, he is not only a child from the outside to the inside, so Lords, please forgive him!"

After listening to Anada's narration, Angel did not ask the question of "forgive or not", but became a little curious about this weird family structure.

Suddenly, David pointed to the wall clock on the wall and reminded: "Angel, it will be eight o'clock in half an hour, and the auction will start soon."

Seeing this, Angel said to Anada: "You take care of Whitbyton for a while, as for other issues, we can talk about them when we come back."

After finishing speaking, he left the other courtyard with Prome and David.

On the way from here to the auction house, David asked puzzledly, "Leave them at home, will that brat run away?"

Angel: "Just run away, it's a trivial matter, there's no need to take it to heart."

"If I had known this, I should have beat him up first. Otherwise, where would I beat him up if he ran away!" David was still resenting the stolen purse.

"It's also strange. Why do people in Night Devil City like to steal money bags? That Anada, who can intersect with the Duke's mansion, should be from a family with a similar background. How can she do such a thing that can't be put on the table?" Ann Geer shook his head and laughed.

How strong the attraction of the twilight beat can be seen from the extraordinary people coming and going on the street.

Not only was the ground overcrowded, but there were also wizards rushing to the auction in the air.

Everyone was walking in one direction. Such a grand occasion gave Angel the feeling of a soldier who was about to set foot on the battlefield.Every step I take seems to be paving the way for writing an epic in the future.

After a short walk, they finally arrived at their destination - Twilight Auction.

It is a metal square tower full of metal ruins. There are several long aerial stairs extending to the top of the iron square tower in the surrounding buildings. The sky stairs fly gray and white moon flags at intervals, which seems to be the symbol of the whole building. Add a sense of confusion.

The square iron tower is tall and wide, and each floor has a chimney, which spews out smoke.

Its shell is not decorated in any way, the iron sheet is mottled, with brick-red rust marks, and occasionally there are holes, and traces of repairs with other colored iron sheets can be seen. The overall look is a bit messy, but it has the beauty of ruins and order.

Each side of the iron tower is tens of meters wide, and each side has a gate.So although there are many people, it is not crowded.

It's just... Angel suddenly remembered something: "Master Prome, don't you need an invitation letter for this Twilight Auction?"

When Angor was very young, he accompanied the old Pat to Watford to participate in an auction. It seemed that he needed an invitation letter before entering, but this was his very early memory, and Angor never thought of it until he saw the auction. When I was on the scene, I only vaguely remembered this crop.

Promi smiled and said, "You haven't asked, I thought David told you."

"Twilight Auction, aside from the usual rules, there are two big auctions each year, divided into an outfield and an infield. The outfield is in the hall on the first floor, and you can see the picture of the infield through the central screen. Anyone can enter and bid in the public bidding area, but each person can only bid 3 times, and each bid requires a handling fee of 5 magic crystals."

"The infield can bid at any time, and there is no limit on the number of bids."

This kind of auction mode is novel, and the number of outside bids is limited, so each bid needs to be very high, so high that people in the inner court dare not follow suit, otherwise it will be difficult to win the desired item.Although there are restrictions on outside auctions, at the same time, outside auctions can avoid the risk of being directly threatened by wizards, which can be regarded as a check and balance.

"Do you need an invitation letter for the infield?" Angel asked.

"The invitation letter is for private exchange meetings. There are so many people in the big auction, how can everyone send an invitation letter." Promi said, "There are actually two kinds of qualifications to enter the infield, one is the Twilight Auction the VIPs at the club, and the second is to spend money to buy tickets.”

"So are we going to buy tickets now? How much is the ticket price?" Angel frowned. He didn't shoot much cherished material, so he probably wouldn't compete with the wizard.Therefore, it must be more cost-effective in the infield, and he still feels a little bit reluctant to pay the magic crystal for every auction in the outfield.

Promi smiled and shook her head, looking very fancy.

Seeing this, David immediately stepped forward and flattered: "Angel, don't worry! We don't need to buy tickets at all. Master Prome is a silver card VIP at Twilight Auction!"

"Silver card VIP?" Angel remembered Greya's Barbie restaurant, which was also graded in the same way. Is it customary to use gold, silver and copper in restaurants and bars now?
"The so-called silver card VIPs can not only bring 5 people into the infield, but also have an exclusive silver card VIP area, so no matter when you go, you don't have to worry about running out of seats! Getting a silver card VIP is not an easy task. At least 5000 magic crystals must be consumed at one time, and the Twilight Auction will also evaluate your personal ability, and you will be issued a card after the review team reviews you! Generally speaking, among wizard apprentices who can get a silver card, I estimate that at present There is only Master Prome."

David's sense of humor made Promi smile even more happily.At this time, if he explains that he has a VIP silver card and how precious the silver card is, it will drop in price!That's why it's easier to put on an understatement and calmly pretend to be aggressive with a younger brother who knows how to read and wink with you.

"Oh, that's how it is." Angel's face was shocked, but there was no wavering in his heart.

At this time, it was less than 10 minutes before the official start of the auction, and the hall was basically overcrowded. Promi looked at the crowded people in the hall, and took Angel and David in with high-spirited steps. Infield passage.

Angel thought that the silver card VIP area was probably just a private room.But in fact, the silver card VIP area is actually on the second floor of the infield, where you can see the situation of the auction table condescendingly, and the seats are scattered so that it won't be too crowded.

After the three of them were seated, Angel unbuttoned their coats to free up Toby's sight.

It wasn't until this moment that Angel had time to look at the inside of the entire auction.

The infield is not as big as Angel imagined, and there are not as many people sitting in the infield as he imagined. The venue is estimated to be a little smaller than an ordinary concert hall, and there are only a few hundred people sitting on the first floor.

However, Angel noticed that among these hundreds of people, although most of them were wizard apprentices, there were also a dozen or so full-time wizards whose hidden power was extremely powerful and about the same level as Flora's.

In addition to the ordinary seats on the first floor, the silver-card VIP area on the second floor, and the gold-card VIP private room on the third floor, the private rooms are fully enclosed, and Angor cannot observe the inside, but it is estimated that the gold-card VIPs should all be formal wizards. .

Angel's curious look attracted the attention of many people, including wizards.However, seeing that Angel was just a young boy, he withdrew his gaze.

At this time, Promi began to introduce the Twilight Auction to Angel: "Usually, the Twilight Auction has sub-halls, materials, potions, weapons, etc... There are divisions, go to the corresponding area according to your choice But only the big auction every year is a comprehensive auction, regardless of venue."

Promi talked about his experience of becoming a silver-card VIP again. After about 5 minutes, with the sound of a wonderful horn, all the lights in the infield were dimmed.

"It's started. If you want to bid later, just use magic power to input it into the communicator next to the seat." Because the lights on the field were dimmed, Promi's voice became a little hoarse.

"I am obsessed with the tempering of the years, pursuing the eternal and immortal truth. But the road is far away and arduous. Looking at the sky at the mouth of the well, there is no dust, only the twilight glow is always with my heart." A person shrouded in fluorescent light The dotted middle-aged woman slowly appeared from the illusion.

"Good night, everyone. I am the auctioneer of the Twilight Auction. I have forgotten my name. You can call me 'Twilight'." When the middle-aged woman spoke, the glow around her gradually dissipated.Showing her true face, a plain face.

"Not much to say, after review, there are a total of 173 items that can enter the auction today, many of which are mysterious. Now, let's enter the auction time." Although Twilight's voice is not cadenced, but simple and straightforward, but still Possesses a strange power that can drive people's emotions.

"The first item to be auctioned is a set of velvet potions from Dongxue Pharmacy, with a total of 19 bottles. The starting price is zero, and each price increase must not be less than 30 magic crystals."
