Yuqiongyin
Chapter 365 Yuqiong Necklace (12
The two were about to sit down in the private room when maids and waiters came out one after another, carrying silver trays and bowing.
But after a while, the auction officially began.
The auctioneer and the waiter stood on the auction table, accepting the gaze of thousands of people at the auction. Despite this, the expressions and smiles on their faces were just right, without the slightest bit of tension or discomfort.
The auctioneer smiled and nodded to the people in the audience, and opened the ceremony with a loud and clear voice: "Dear guests, welcome to today's auction! I am the auctioneer of this auction, and I am very honored to host this grand event for you. Now, let us enter this world full of surprises and expectations together!"
As the auctioneer finished his words, the entire venue erupted in applause and cheers. The guests showed excited expressions and their eyes were focused on the auction table.
The auctioneer continued, "On this wonderful evening, we will present to you a series of rare items and works of art. These treasures have been carefully selected and identified, and each one has its own unique value and charm. I hope that in the coming time, all of you will be able to bid on your favorite treasures and leave here with a satisfied harvest."
Sylvain sat in the box, leaning her chin to look out the window, taking in the entire situation below.
The auctioneer stirred up the guests' excitement over and over again, making the atmosphere more and more heated.
The crystal chandelier above the head emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the auctioneer's position. Precious items were carefully placed in the display cabinets, and each one showed amazing craftsmanship and artistic value.
The gauze and silk, as thin as a cicada's wing, emit a faint glow; the glittering pearls are like the bright stars in the night sky, shining with charming brilliance.
In addition, there are countless magic stones and potions that contain powerful magic.
The auctioneer introduced the items one by one. The guests stared at the items intently and uttered exclamations of admiration from time to time.
However, Sylvaria noticed that Lucas did not show much interest in these treasures from the human world.
"Is there nothing you like?" Sylva Ria asked lazily, curling her now platinum-blond hair with her fingers.
She looked at Lucas, trying to understand the human's thoughts.
After all, this auction brought together many precious items, including some rare treasures, but Lucas didn't seem to be interested in them.
Lucas smiled and shook his head slightly.
He closed the list in his hand and said slowly, "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't like these items, but I have limited interest in them. However, it is also an interesting experience to learn about the origins and values of these items through the auctioneer's introduction."
Sylva Ria nodded, indicating that she understood Lucas's idea.
Although these items are not necessary for him now, it may be a good experience to learn the stories and history behind them.
However, if you simply appreciate the works without actually buying them, then the trip to the auction may seem a bit futile.
Therefore, whenever Lucas's eyes lingered on a certain item for a moment, Sylvaria would raise the sign in her hand to bid, and eventually she successfully bought it at a price twice the value of the item.
Lucas wanted to stop her, but then he thought he couldn't ruin her mood, so he didn't say anything.
Sylvarea seemed to enjoy this process very much. The book said that humans like to consume, and it seemed that this human was in a good mood now.
Later on, even though Lucas didn't even look at the item after it was acquired, Sylvaria still held up the sign and bid. It seemed fun to tease those humans.
The auction finally came to an end and it was almost noon.
Sylva sipped her tea and looked down at the auction table. The auctioneer deliberately prolonged the ending of the word to keep people in suspense.
"Next is the last lot of this auction, and also the highlight of tonight, the collection of Count Lucas—!"
As soon as the auctioneer on the stage said this, everyone stretched their necks, looking forward to the last item.
As the auctioneer revealed the mystery, he slowly lifted the red cloth covering the display case, his voice filled with excitement and pride, "Count Lucas's necklace!"
In an instant, a dazzling light burst out from the display case, instantly enveloping the entire venue in this brilliant light.
That’s right, what was displayed before everyone was exactly the legendary necklace—the necklace from Count Lucas’ collection.
Under the illumination of the crystal chandelier, it is breathtakingly beautiful, as if it is a treasure from fairyland.
Everyone was amazed and their eyes were fixed on the item in the display case.
The craftsmanship of this necklace is exquisite. Every detail has been carefully carved. The meticulously carved lines are smooth and natural, just like a master-level work of art.
The necklace is made up of countless butterflies, which are arranged closely together. The body and antennae of each butterfly are delicately carved. The butterfly wings are slightly spread, full of artistic sense and vitality, as if ready to fly at any time.
The pendant in the center is even more eye-catching. It is a lifelike jade flower, inlaid with layers of purple-red gems of varying shades, creating a nearly perfect sense of layering.
Each gem sparkles with a unique brilliance, and the contrast between them makes the entire jade flower appear more vivid and lifelike.
All the people present were fascinated by it. They opened their eyes wide and carefully admired this rare treasure.
Some people even couldn't help but whispered: "It's so beautiful... It's simply beyond words!" "I have never seen such a beautiful necklace..."
There were bursts of exclamations from the crowd from time to time, and everyone showed great interest in the necklace.
It is not only a precious piece of jewelry, but also an amazing work of art, which embodies the efforts and wisdom of countless craftsmen. Every detail is carefully carved, as if telling an eternal story, exuding an ancient and charming charm.
The color of the gem is deep and rich, revealing a mysterious atmosphere. This color seems to be the precipitation of time, witnessing the changes of history and the passage of time.
It brings to mind the glory and legends of the past, which are now a distant memory but are preserved in this necklace.
This necklace is like a bright star, shining quietly.
But if it were just beautiful, this item would not be worthy of being the finale.
"It is said that Count Lucas made this necklace to remind people of someone he had seen. After it was made, the necklace was sealed forever until our auction house redeemed it recently."
The auctioneer paused, glanced around the audience, and smiled faintly, "Speaking of the special features of this Yuqiong necklace, I think everyone has heard that this necklace was cast with magic by a magician, and it has the power to travel through time and space."
As soon as these words were spoken, there were sighs and doubts from the audience.
Some people looked at the necklace on the stage with surprise and disbelief; while others sneered, expressing their doubt and disdain for such a statement.
After all, things like traveling through time and space are too fantastic and bizarre to be believed.
However, some people showed great interest in it. They stared at the necklace intently, their eyes revealing a desire to explore the unknown, and they looked forward to more explanations and proofs.
"This Yuqiong necklace has been sealed in this box until now, and no one knows whether the rumor is true or not." The auctioneer said slowly, his voice low and solemn, as if he was telling an ancient legend.
His words attracted the attention of everyone in the audience, and people couldn't help but look at him sideways. Those who were whispering just now turned their eyes to him, expecting him to continue to uncover the story behind this mysterious object.
"But the auction house has confirmed that it is indeed a rare treasure. Regardless of whether it has the ability to travel through time and space, it is enough to attract everyone's attention. If the guests are curious about this item, you can raise the sign in your hand, bid for it, and then find the answer in your heart.
The starting price is 50 million gold coins, and each bid increase must not be less than 1 million gold coins!! "
As the host finished speaking, the entire venue fell into silence.
