Quick Wear: Host, are you playing here?

Chapter 300: The Downtrodden Noble 17

"Six million."

"Eight million."

"Ten million."

"..."

Elliot turned his head stiffly, his eyes questioning.

Hua Xia's expression was sincere: "It was the one I lost."

Elliot: "......" Who asked you to identify it? !

Hua Xia continued: "Hey, just say it's a coincidence that I can get this."

Elliot didn't know whether it was a coincidence or not. He only knew that this thing couldn't fall into the hands of others, so he had to go through the trouble of buying it.

The voice almost came out of his chest: "Fifteen million."

250: [......] So, the host is here to make money today.

The treasure map was finally sold at a nearly sky-high price.

Hua Xia initially thought that she was just here to make money, until the last item appeared.

It was a flower with a faint blue hue, and its petals and leaves were translucent with a frosted texture, like a glass handicraft, placed in a transparent glass container for everyone to appreciate.

The auctioneer's professional smile turned mysterious. To arouse everyone's curiosity, she said quietly, "The last lot was also sent anonymously. When it was sent to the auction house, it was immediately sent to a doctor of plant research for identification. The result was that it was a flower waiting to bloom, and it was a new variety that had never been discovered in the history of botany."

“There is also a story sent along with the item.”

A story, the auctioneer paused deliberately, and everyone immediately showed an expression of interest.

The auctioneer had whetted everyone's appetite before he said quietly, "Come to think of it, it has some similarities to the last treasure map."

"That flower came from the mysterious Sea of ​​Death - the Pullman Sea. This flower is the only one that drifted out of the Pullman Sea. It entered the human vision along with the legend circulated among the ancient mermaids in the deep sea."

"It is said that the king of the mermaids has been sleeping for a hundred years on the seafloor thousands of meters below the Pullman Sea. Legend has it that on an unnamed island that the mermaids have been guarding, there grows a light blue creeper. The creeper wraps around the entire island like a silk thread and sinks to the bottom of the sea, accompanying the mermaid king in his sleep."

"When the creepers grow flowers, the whole island will turn into a sea of ​​orchids, which is a color more beautiful than the sea. You can imagine how spectacular the scene will be."

"What's even more shocking is that the legend of the blue flower sea in the Pullman Sea is the king of the mermaid tribe's romantic desire to welcome his bride and his determination to die for his lover."

"Now there are flowers drifting out of the Pullman Sea, which means that the king of the mermaids may have awakened."

“No reserve price.”

Speaking of the determination to die for the one she loves, Hua Xia felt the scorching gaze on her right. At the same time, everyone found it interesting and started raising their signs one after another.

"Once in ten thousand."

"Once in fifty thousand."

"Once in a hundred thousand."

Hua Xia: “…”

A large hand reached out from the side, gently pulled the handle of the sign in her hand and shook it.

Hua Xia turned her head and asked silently, "Didn't they say that they were all over the island? And she still needs to spend money to buy them?"

The handle of the sign was shaken again. Hua Xia pulled out the handle at the end that was caught by Barcelos and raised it up silently.

Not far away, Collide, who was disguised as a waiter, cast a look of watching the show.

250: [Host, what is he laughing at? ]

Hua Xia gritted her teeth and said, "No one except Collide will pick up the money that has flowed out of the Pullman Sea. He even told a story to package it, and then a large number of people who are not short of money will come to pay for it."

After he raised it several times, even the male protagonist of the world looked over and whispered, "It seems that the Earl is interested in this kind of thing."

The tone was not good. Needless to say, it was full of resentment after the entire venue was filled with resentment after being cheated out of money.

Hua Xia said casually: "Your brothers are looking at you."

Elliot's act of competing with his fellow kings to get that half of the treasure map undoubtedly revealed his ambition. These royal families might have to devote some energy to dealing with him.

Elliot's face instantly darkened.

The last item seemed to be something Truman wanted to do in order to have an interesting ending to the auction. No one was chasing after a useless flower, so the item finally fell into Hua Xia's hands.

After the event, Truman held a dinner party, but Hua Xia was not interested in participating and took Baseles, who was holding flowers, back to the villa.

The next day, Elliot received the second half of the treasure map that Hua Xia had hand-drawn as promised. This made Elliot, who had been dealing with his brothers all night, very angry.

After two days of calm, on the third night, a drizzle began to fall from the sky, and the sound of the rain was slowly growing louder.

In the living room on the first floor, Hua Xia sat on the sofa and looked at the rain outside the window. The dim light in the yard made the raindrops hit the floor-to-ceiling glass and soon gathered into raindrops and dripped down.

"My Lord Earl, is this door not closed?" The butler stood aside and looked at the darkness outside the wide-open door. A cold wind blew, bringing in some rain water diagonally and wetting the ground.

"It's not closed. Guests will be here soon." Hua Xia's voice was light and casual, with her chin supported by her hand as if she was here to enjoy the rain.

The housekeeper and the guard standing by looked at each other. Where did the guests come from so late at night?

Besides, what kind of guests would come to visit so late at night?

Perhaps guessing what the housekeeper was thinking, Hua Xia glanced at him and said lazily: "Of course he is an uninvited guest~"

Without waiting for the butler to react, the sound of rustling footsteps could be clearly heard outside the door as soon as he finished speaking. It was the sound of cold boots stepping on the rain, lightly and quickly.

"Swish."

Several black figures suddenly appeared at the gate. Raindrops dripped through the waterproof cloth onto the floor. Several masked men with guns in their hands silently confronted the people in the house. The leading man even pointed the muzzle of the gun directly at Hua Xia's forehead.

Hua Xia tilted her head and looked at the housekeeper: "Well, let me tell you, the guests are here."

The butler was sweating profusely and was speechless. He wanted to say, "My Lord Earl, you are still in the mood to make jokes. I don't disbelieve you!"

He opened his mouth, but it was blocked by the black muzzle of the gun and he couldn't say anything. Although he was obviously afraid, he still moved his position with his old arms and legs and stood in front of Hua Xia.

Hua Xia opened her mouth: "How can I see if you're blocking me?"

The housekeeper shed tears silently: "......." Thinking of his loyalty...

Hua Xia turned her body and faced the men in black again. The leading man seemed to sneer, and the muscles at the corners of his mouth caused the black cloth on his face to move.

Hua Xia: "You don't need to cover up. I'm face-blind and I can't remember your faces even if I see them."

The man in black raised the gun in his hand silently.

There were not many guards patrolling the villa. They were just called into the house by Hua Xia. They reacted quickly and raised their weapons to confront the enemy.

"Sir, is there anything wrong? I suggest you speak nicely and don't use violence." Hua Xia said in a gentle voice.

The guest part-time killer came straight to the point: "Hand over the other half of the treasure map in your hand, and everyone present can survive, otherwise..."

Before he could finish his words, a pancake-shaped object was thrown to his feet.
