My Magic Age
Chapter 758 258. Reverse Auction
I don’t know since when, it started to drizzle in the sky. The rain and mist that was blown away by the wind would soon make the clothes on the body very wet, and even the hair would be soaked by the rich water. The fog was so stained that it turned into wisps. Kalancso directed the orc warriors to hurriedly put away the leather hanging in the yard.
The magic wall lamps on both sides of the street emitted a dim and dim light under the cover of rain and fog.
Watching the two of them slowly disappearing at the end of the quiet alley, I thought: No matter what, Brandon and Felix finally relaxed their brows and looked at the nobles who asked them to come here to inquire about the news based on their friendship. , they should be able to give everyone a satisfactory answer.
Kalancuo took off his hard leather half-armor and wore only an off-shoulder and sleeveless linen vest. He bent down and spread a dry quilt on the wooden bed in the bedroom.
I don't know what kind of agreement she has with Catalina. It seems that the two of them have a silent understanding that they will never appear in front of me at the same time in private. They are responsible for taking care of my diet and daily life, but they have their own differences. Perform their duties.
Sitting on the chair by the window, I suddenly thought of Knight Disraeli, and I didn't know what his mood was at this moment.

Sister Guoguo's water elemental spirit danced happily in the courtyard. Although she has not awakened, her growth rate is getting faster and faster, and her learning ability has become stronger and stronger. I am worried that she will Tian suddenly awakened, possessed primary wisdom, and then erased the memory fragments in the soul deep in the body. That was what I least wanted to see.
However, now I can only watch her growing up in front of me, but I can't do anything.
Thinking of these things in Hiero's plane, it can be considered that it is coming to an end, but I don't know what kind of reward the Duke will give me.
According to Qige and I’s plan, of course we want to use these meritorious deeds in exchange for a higher title, at least becoming an earl, so that we can be qualified to compete fairly with the Prince of Wales. Otherwise, with my current status, Will If Prince Si knew that I was his love rival, he would only need to use his status and the privileges of the upper-class nobles of the Green Empire over the lower-class nobles to play tricks on me.
But wanting to become an earl is not a simple matter. Not only do you need to have enough merit, but you also need land that is equivalent to the earl's status. You need at least a manor as big as Duke Zimmerman, and also To have a private territory as big as a small town, you can have a team of cavalry composed of followers and retinues.
It can be said that the earl is like the mayor of the town, but he can exercise much more power than the mayor. Like the emperor of a small town, he can also legally establish his own army.
Perhaps the merits we have achieved on the Hierro plane are enough for me to be promoted to a count, but I don’t have that much private land. Originally, these lands required me to take my followers with me in some areas that were still burning with war. On the fertile plane, one has worked hard through wars one after another. Those new territories that have been opened up will be given to the real owner of the plane, the Duke of Samoyed, one-third, and another three-thirds to the Emperor of the Green Empire, Charles the Great. One, the remaining ones belong to the pioneers themselves.
Obviously I don't have time to fight around in these rich planes, but I need a land of my own. Only in this way can I become a veritable earl.
So everything Qige and I did today was to lay bait for the nobles of Tandon City. We wanted those fish to chase after the fishy smell. Obviously, we have a perfect first step. ’s start.
Kalancuo put her hands on my shoulders and squeezed my stiff back. The hair on her head rubbed against my face, which made me feel itchy at this moment. Having her by my side makes me feel relaxed. People who have never seen her fighting on the battlefield will never know the explosive power her arms have. Recently, I have discovered that she has become more and more feminine. Her gentleness, thoughtfulness, and meticulous care make it hard for me to imagine that a female beast warrior can do these things.
Just listen to her say: "Would you like to sleep for a while first? Catalina just said that Miss Qige still needs to prepare for two hours. The ice-attribute magic power contained in the winter thorn grass is extremely unstable, and the configuration of the falling snow ink appears. Got some trouble!"
For young scholars of herbalism and magic like Qi Ge, who are able to gain a foothold in the Imperial Magic Academy, they will not encounter any trouble at all in preparing simple magic ink. They have completely reached the expert level in controlling the properties of magic herbs. level.
If Qige had asked Catalina to come over to inform us of this matter, then what we encountered should not be a minor trouble. Thinking of this, a chill ran down my spine, and I didn't know what tricks Qige was playing in Luoxue Ink.
Although I was a little uneasy, I could only calm down Kalancso's mood and said to her: "It doesn't matter. Bring me the peeled skins first. We need to cut them into one-foot-square blank magic paper as soon as possible. Don't you? “Knowing Qig, she works like a madman and by the time she says she’s ready, we’re trying to cut the skin off these swamp giants and it’s too late.”
Of course, Kalancuo obeyed my words. After hearing what I said, he quickly went to the drying rack outside to bring in some crocodile skins that had not yet been completely dried, and spread them flat on the desk.
It was pitch black outside the window, and the snoring of the orc warriors came from the side room.
Kalancuo reached out and took down the magic lampshade on the desk, making the light in the room brighter. The soft light shone on her wheat-colored skin as smooth as silk, and a delicate luster appeared on her face. A faint maternal glow appeared on her face, and her eyes were full of tenderness.
At this moment, I seemed to have a resonance with her in my heart. It seemed that a bridge was built between our hearts. I clearly felt what she was thinking, and she also looked at me with wide eyes in horror, as if something incredible had happened.
The deep longing and concern for little Ella that came out from her made me realize that we had been away from the imperial capital for at least a month. We just took a half-orc little girl who had never left her mother out of the orc village, and then casually left her in the imperial capital without caring about her. It was really a bit too irresponsible.
Miss Qi didn't let us wait too long. The first bottle of snow ink sent was a bottle of ink overflowing from the ice magic element. When I inserted the magic engraving pen into the ink bottle, I could clearly feel the sound of the pen tip being frozen inside the ink bottle. I quickly injected a trace of magic power to turn the snow ink in the ink bottle into liquid. I took a deep breath and held the magic engraving pen like a snake dancing and a dragon swimming. On the thin skin of the swamp giant crocodile, along the traces of the dark lines, I quickly drew a series of magic patterns.
Those magic lines appeared in front of me one by one. I had to continue to output magic power to keep the ink on the pen tip from condensing into ice, and maintain a stable magic power output, leading the ink to be injected into the crocodile skin magic paper. A set of 'Frost Nova' magic scrolls gradually appeared in front of me. There was an extremely cold breath in those lines.
I don't know what method Qi Ge used to stimulate all the ice attribute magic power of the winter thorn grass.
Not long after, a slightly enhanced version of the 'Frost Nova' scroll was successfully drawn, and then the scroll was skillfully tied with the leaves of the amaranth. This ice attribute scroll drawn with a water-based monster leather has good magic properties. The magic paper made of this water-based monster leather is originally more powerful than ordinary magic paper, and the ink used is improved. This magic scroll is full of rich ice attribute magic.
Even if it is not unfolded and used, I know that this is a very perfect 'Frost Nova' scroll, and this scroll is extremely light, only the thickness of a thumb, just like the thinnest scroll.
This night, I almost rushed to make this kind of magic scroll.
In the early morning, Miss Qi came to my room with dark circles, looked at me, and then pulled Katarina, who was also dozing off, back to her room to catch up on sleep. Instead, I continued to concentrate on drawing the magic scroll.
…
When I woke up, it was already afternoon.
I sat up from the bed drowsily. There was a noisy sound coming from the yard. I jumped onto the floor barefoot, ran to the window, pushed open the colored glass window, and leaned out to look outside.
I saw that the yard was full of people. To be more precise, the long wooden chairs were full of nobles from the city. The expressions of these nobles were different. Some looked satisfied, some looked deeply regretful, some had expectations in their eyes, and some had beads of sweat on their foreheads and anxious looks on their faces.
These people were wearing noble dresses and gathered in the yard. For a while, the yard was as noisy as a vegetable market. Those sounds reached my ears, making me feel inexplicably irritated. However, when Qi Ge, who was standing in front of the railing, heard the window noise, he turned around and saw that I woke up. He immediately turned around and said to me happily: "Oh, Ji Jia, you woke up at a really bad time. Our auction is about to end."
I was still a little sleepy, and asked Qi Ge in a daze: "Auction? What are we going to auction? Aren't we going to use some black magic crystals to buy some magic materials we need?"
Qi Ge squinted her eyes and explained to me: "So we are going to auction black magic crystals! As for what they want to buy, as long as it is not gold and silver coins, anything else is fine. It can be a commodity that they think is equivalent to black magic crystals. How about it, isn't it interesting?"
"This is really a unique auction!" I smiled at Qi Ge, then casually closed the window, quickly put on my magic robe, and appeared in the yard.
Qi Ge, freed from the constraints of traditional etiquette, began to do whatever she wanted. She always had some new ideas of her own.
When I opened the door and walked out, I saw a dozen orc warriors wearing leather armor maintaining law and order around the yard, but their role was basically just for show. They were more like bronze statues, standing motionless beside the stone pillars, serious and staring at everyone in the yard with their turbid eyes.
Kalancuo and Katarina were sorting out the various magic boxes filled with magic materials piled up like a hill next to the pile of goods.
These magic materials are of various types, but after Takama and Kalancuo carefully selected them, they were divided into several categories and placed casually under their eaves. Of course, from the magic materials they opened the boxes and checked inside, the most harvested were the leather of the swamp crocodile and the magic herb winter thorn grass, which can almost be regarded as the specialty of Trum.
Among these magic items, there are also some so-called fine magic materials. For example, I happened to see Kalancuo find a fist-sized piece of refined gold in a magic box, and five one-foot square metal rune plates made of mithril in a very heavy magic box, and even a box containing a golden ginseng.
I was a little dumbfounded. I don’t know how many black magic crystals Qi Ge used to exchange for so many magic materials. However, it seems that Qi Ge does not have too many black magic crystals. Most of the black magic crystals are currently in my magic waist bag.
Katarina, wearing a white long skirt, stood in front of an auction table at the door, and then placed five black magic crystals on the table from a tray.
She was smiling in front of everyone, like a warm spring breeze blowing on their faces. She smiled at the nobles who were waiting impatiently in the yard, and then said: "The following is a set of black magic crystals, a total of five pieces, and the same category is not limited, as long as it is a rare magic material, everyone has one chance. Please write the magic materials you are going to exchange with us on the parchment. In one minute, I will ask the waiter to take the parchment back."
Catrina was very beautiful and her voice was very soft. I heard her say to the nobles slowly: "Everyone, I will choose a piece of parchment that I think best meets our current needs as the successful object of this transaction, and then publicly announce the exchange materials written on this parchment, and the names and quantities of the materials we exchanged in this transaction."
The many nobles in the audience were happy and sad. After hearing what Catalina said, almost half of the nobles began to lower their heads and write on the parchment.
Afterwards, Takama and Kalancuo became waiters to collect parchment notes, and gathered all the notes written by the nobles who wanted to trade the black magic crystals together, and finally sent them to Qige, letting her decide who to choose.
At this time, Qige saw me walk out of the room, and hurriedly called me over to choose the trading partner with her.
