Douluo: After I Traveled Through the Book, I Became the Big Sister of Shrek

At this time, Lu had already left the gate of Shrek Academy and arrived at Tiandou City.

Tiandou City is prosperous, and there are shops selling all kinds of things, but the Qibao Liuli Sect has always been rich, and it seems difficult to get the other party to like any valuable gifts. Lu also looked around for a long time, but didn't find anything suitable, and was a little worried.

Until a building came into view.

The building has a peculiar shape. It is not an ordinary high-rise building, but a semicircle, like an upside-down bowl on the ground. There is an auction hammer symbol above the gate, which makes it clear what the building is used for.

The deer also had an idea and walked towards the building.

This auction house was obviously quite large. Just by peeking in from the door, one could already see the orderly and magnificent scene. Four tall, well-proportioned, well-trained women stood in front of the gate. Seeing Lu also walking towards the gate, one of them stepped forward and bowed slightly, and asked politely, "Hello, how can I help you?"

Lu also said, "I'll come to the auction."

She had previously made a lot of money by gambling in the city of Sivers, and now she had 60,000 gold soul coins in her pocket, which made her feel very confident. After submitting proof of assets of 10,000 gold soul coins under the guidance of the woman, she successfully entered the auction house and received a mask.

Many novels have descriptions about the black market and the auction house. In some books, the auction house is even inseparable from the black market. As an old tasker, Lu also has some understanding of the rules of the auction house. As soon as he entered the auction center, he saw the short skirts with slits to the thighs and the exquisite and charming figures of the waitresses, and he already understood most of it.

It happened that a middle-aged man came in with her. For some reason, he was not wearing a mask. He was dressed in white, with an elegant appearance and a very gentle temperament. He seemed to have been observing Lu Ye. When he saw her sit down, she thanked the waiter and looked at him strangely: "You are the first person I have seen who is so calm to these waiters when she comes to the auction house for the first time."

Anyone who can go to the auction without a mask must be someone extraordinary. The auction area is divided according to strength, with white being the most common and lowest level. But for some reason, this middle-aged man insisted on sitting in the white area, which was very strange.

Lu Ye asked, "How do you know this is my first time at the auction?"

"You are not very old. If you were a regular at the auction house, I would definitely recognize you." The middle-aged man said with a smile, "People who come to the auction house for the first time either hate and disdain these waiters, or have evil thoughts in their hearts. But you don't seem to have any opinions. You just treat them as ordinary people."

"He's just a poor fellow." Lu Ye said, "I do have some opinions, actually. There are no male waiters here. The nobles of Tiandou City are really too conservative."

The middle-aged man was stunned, then laughed twice.

The auction was already underway, and Lu Ye was observing the items being brought up one by one, very seriously. There didn't seem to be any heavyweight items during this period, and so far, the items sold were not too expensive, mostly around 10,000 yuan, and the most expensive soul guide was sold for just over 40,000 yuan, which was still within Lu Ye's affordability.

"Little girl, you came to the auction house, is there anything you want to bid for?" asked the middle-aged man.

Lu did not deny it and nodded: "A friend of mine invited me to her home, and I want to prepare a gift for her."

"Come to the auction house to choose a gift?" The middle-aged man was surprised and a little amused. "I guess your friend must have a very prominent family background."

Lu Ye said, "That's right. Sir, you are a distinguished guest of the auction house. You should be very familiar with the items sold here. Is there anything you can recommend to me?"

The middle-aged man was somewhat amused. This little girl treated him as a shopping guide. However, he also had a good impression of Lu, so he did not expose her. Instead, he really introduced her to her: "There are all kinds of items here. They will auction everything you can think of. If you are giving this gift to an elder in your friend's family, the thought is sometimes more important than the price. Does your friend have any hobbies or needs?"

Lu was about to speak when the host on the stage suddenly raised his voice and said with a smile, "Next, we will auction a rare treasure. Please pay attention if you are interested. Especially male guests."

A cart covered with red velvet was pushed out by several big men. Lu Ye's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the host on the stage showed a mysterious smile: "The starting price of this item is 100,000 gold soul coins, and each bid must not be less than 10,000 gold soul coins. Male guests, this is the best of the best..."

He grabbed the red cloth and pulled it off.

Under the red cloth was no commodity at all, but a huge iron cage, in which curled a naked girl. She seemed to have not seen the light for a long time, and when the red cloth was opened, she shrank subconsciously and covered her eyes with her arms.

Instantly, the deer also heard the sound coming from her brain. It was as if a raging wave was coming over her head, and the huge wave swept her up high into the air—and then slammed her hard against the cliff.

In the huge waves, there was the coldness of the iron cage and shackles, the panicked cries of the girls, and the dirty, lustful gazes of countless eyes. The auction bidding, the whispers, and the malicious laughter of the crowd, like maggots on the tarsal bones, drilled into the depths of her memory.

[…The current world has lost its connection…The mission…failed…]

[…The tasker is about to be thrown into a punishment dungeon…]

[Please...survive...]

The host whipped the girl in the cage with a stick. The girl shrank even more because of the pain, and her body twisted, revealing a snow-white cat tail behind her.

The bidding from the audience became louder and louder, and in an instant it reached 150,000.

The middle-aged man noticed that the deer had not spoken since then. He turned his head and saw that the deer under the mask had no expression on his face, but his wrist was unconsciously exerting force, and veins on the back of his hand were already bulging. When he looked closely, he found that the hand was trembling slightly.

——"A new maid has been sent in?"

——"...Hurry up...The last Duke got tired of playing..."

The girl's body, covered with bruises and scars, was dragged out of the door. Her bulging eyes stared at her with fear and despair. Lu also closed her eyes and stabbed the man's already cold body again. The blade pierced through the soft flesh and internal organs, and blood splashed on her face. She wiped the blood off her face, put on the man's outer robe, and climbed out of the window.

After that, it was endless escape.

She climbed over walls, hid in garbage dumps, crawled through dog holes, ate rats, and killed the people who were chasing her one by one. She escaped death countless times and became more and more skilled in killing. However, no matter how she ran, she could never escape this hell on earth.

Because it was the dirtiest and most desperate apocalypse, with the upper class living in luxury and debauchery, while the lower class was barely clothed. The rich were living in luxury, while the poor were freezing to death on the streets. This was vividly demonstrated in that world. The rich regarded the lower class as ants and trampled and humiliated them at will, while the poor did everything they could to survive. No one could be trusted, because even the most seemingly weak and innocent child would sell her out without hesitation.

There was a click.

The armrests of the seats in the auction hall were also broken by the deer.

Until then, Lu seemed to sober up a little. She loosened her hand and looked up at the middle-aged man: "Sorry, I lost my composure."

The middle-aged man did not pursue the matter. In his eyes, the deer was just expressing his true feelings because he was too angry to see a living person being auctioned. As a teenager, such emotions were normal. If the deer remained indifferent, that would be really strange.

"I don't have many hobbies, but I occasionally save prostitutes. It seems that you and I are kindred spirits." He pressed the bidding button and said to Lu Ye, "How about this, after I buy her, I'll let you take care of her, how about that?"
