Chapter 36 35 Why is everything so strange
After lunch in the afternoon, Chu Qian, who didn't want to eat anything, took other teammates who also didn't eat, and Jia Luoqing, who was the only one who ate happily, set off together.
This time, the teammates were really taken aback by Jia Luoqing, probably seeing what Jia Luoqing made or a certain color of sauce in a short time would not be appetizing.
Jia Luoqing, who had participated in several business alliance auctions a long time ago, only remembered that the auctions were held in various branches of the business alliance, and probably this time the venue was also held in that store.After watching so many auctions from the sidelines, Jia Luoqing really didn't expect to be a staff member.
As expected by Jia Luoqing, this auction shop that doesn't even have a name is held in its own branch, but it seems that no one can say the specific location.
It looks so mysterious, why is it like this?
Chu Qian led the whole team, according to the request of the task client, turned left and right, and finally came to a dark alley on the other side of the commercial street.
For some reason, as soon as they walked into this dark alley, everyone felt that the surroundings were much darker.Feeling that the alley is not just dimly lit, Jia Luoqing can only say that when she sees all the objects in the alley, it is as if a gray filter has been added.
As far as I can see, everything is gray, and I feel gloomy and weird.Obviously, the colors I saw just outside the alley are brighter.
Strong winds blew past, blowing the debris occupying the alley instantly.But because the wind blows quite frequently, the shopkeepers usually don't put the items outside the shop to avoid being blown away. Therefore, except for the occasional broken pieces or sundries of unknown years and unknown names, the whole alley It still looked clean.
[It's so dark, how could it be like this? ] Jia Luoqing, whose hair was blown flying and squinted, frowned.But the wind blowing is quite fun, if not for fear of danger, Jia Luoqing would probably have been thinking about how to make a concave shape (...).
Although there are many dark alleys similar to this in the commercial street, most of those places are doing all kinds of strange transactions, some exist like a red light district, and some sell various abnormal props.
Could it be that the client did this kind of thing?This is unreasonable.
Those who can be linked to the academy can only be some serious forces. (However, what is serious? Hehe.)
Other teammates also noticed that something was wrong here, and captain Chu Qian also looked surprised: "Hey, how could this be? Did I go wrong?...Hey, no, it is indeed here! Then what do you see? Is it a strange place?"
Everyone replied that they did not come.
At this time, Jia Luoqing seemed to remember something, pulled the princess forward, and patted the captain, "I'll go to the front, I'm the only one here who can find the trap, and I can find out any traps in time."
"Then let me see if there is any poisoning." Hearing Jia Luoqing's words, Mao Xian also came over.
"Come, come, be careful." Chu Qian patted Mao Xian's shoulder and reached out to pat Jia Luoqing's head, then retreated to the crowd, walked side by side with the twins, and said to Yuchi Ke with a smile : "Please also Yuchi."
"Okay." Yuchike smiled sweetly, "There is no ambush around here."
[Why do we only think of this now, is this really good? ] Jia Luoqing felt that these unreliable people gathered together, probably died without knowing why, and it was quite sad to think about it.
Captain Chu Qian once again commanded Jia Luoqing, who was walking ahead, to continue forward with a puzzled expression, "Ah Qing, go forward, and you will arrive there in about a while, everyone be careful."
A strange feeling lingered in the midst, but everyone still didn't notice anything strange all the way.
"Hey, Ah Qing, we're here." Chu Qian called out to Jia Luoqing who had been walking.
Finally, Chu Qian led everyone to a shop whose door was only opened a crack. Jia Luoqing and Mao Xian stepped forward, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, Jia Luoqing reached out and knocked on the door.
Hearing the door opened with a low and hoarse "crack" instantly, revealing the warm yellow light inside, the bright hall and the dilapidated alley outside formed a strong contrast.Jia Luoqing looked around for a moment, but after seeing no mechanism, she stepped forward.
The decoration in the store is resplendent and magnificent, from the expensive embroidered sofa beside him to the carpet hanging on the wall in the distance, all the characters on it are woven lifelike, all kinds of tall decorations, let visitors know that the boss is a real person The money man is coming.Cough, isn't this nonsense?Okay, okay, let's not say more.
Jia Luoqing, who came to watch the decoration with admiration, pulled other teammates and sat on the sofa. While straightening out the hair that was blown by the wind, while observing the decoration here, he suddenly saw something extraordinary.Those decorations have actually been modified, and they are all alchemy armors.
With these artistic armors, this house can probably withstand a battle with a sixth-level powerhouse without any damage. Thinking of this, Jia Luoqing can't help wondering, does this small place need such powerful armors?
Unless there are many objects that need to be protected, or important people.
If it is normal to say that the auction house needs high-standard armor, but the reception hall needs these, does it mean that the customers who come here are wealthy nobles with both reputation and vision?
If so, it seemed strange that she hadn't been here.And these decorations probably require a certain background to be eligible to own them. In this case, it is worth thinking about who is the owner behind this auction house.
However, this place doesn't seem like the place where the auction will be held. The place here is too small to see all the arrangements at a glance.
The number of people that can be accommodated in the store is limited. It seems that apart from this hall that can fit ten people, there are only a few small secret doors leading to unknown directions. However, based on Jia Luoqing's knowledge of space magic, it is impossible to expand here It's an auction house, it's a very strange place.
Looking at the layout inside, Jia Luoqing finally found the bell on the table used to summon the waiter.
He stretched out his hand and pressed it, and soon, silver-blue dark lines flashed across the wall.
A place the size of a door panel in the middle of the wall on one side suddenly sank, revealing a secret passage, and a delicate girl in a uniform dressed as a maid walked out of it.
"Excuse me, are the students from the Magic and Martial Arts Academy?" The maid smiled and nodded to them, and with a "click", the wall behind her returned to its original shape when she spoke.
"Hello, here is Chu Qian, the captain of the team." Chu Qian came over and held out her hand to the maid.
"Hi student Chu, I'm the staff responsible for leading you to the auction, you can just call me Ash." The maid Ash stretched out her hand and shook it back.
After hearing Chu Qian's name, the maid Ash didn't react at all.As the young master of the Chu Qian Chamber of Commerce, it is impossible not to know the people who work at the auction, so this Ash should already know the identities of everyone in their team.
But that's right, after accepting the task, the academy should give the client the simple contact information of their team, which must include their names.It's not that Jia Luoqing is narcissistic, but those who are a little rich in the academy are usually people who are well-known in the imperial capital, so it's not surprising that this person knew in advance.
However, seeing Ash's calm reaction with a professional smile, he was calm enough, at least for a senior receptionist.
"The auction will start on time tonight. Before arriving at the venue, please listen to my explanation." Ash smiled politely at them, and then began to explain what they were going to do later.
It is nothing more than helping with tidying up and delivering goods. The purpose is just to let the students see the behind-the-scenes work of the auction. It is also one of the tasks that belong to the work category, but it is much simpler than the mercenary task.
The difficulty factor of the task is so low, and the points that Chu Qian said before are high, is it true?
"Okay, that's it. After you put on this ring, you will automatically change into our uniforms after you put it on, so that others can easily identify the identities of your staff." After Ash explained and distributed it, he walked to the Beside the wall, I looked up, and suddenly stretched out my hand to twist the lampshade on the wall, conveniently opened a trap, and another secret door appeared in front of everyone.
"Everyone, please follow me." With the same smile on Ash's face, he pushed open the door and walked in first.
Behind the door is a dark space, only the giant magic circle glowing with green light underground is clearly visible.The space behind the door was not too big, and Jia Luoqing, who felt the wall as soon as he entered, reckoned that it was just enough for all of them to walk in.
"We will be teleported to the auction house, students please be careful." Ash's voice spread clearly in the small space.
. . .
Speaking of traveling through the world of Western Fantasy, how can we not come to the auction?
There are mainly two kinds of auctions here, one is open and legal, and only auctions various goods found by the store or consigned by others; the other is for those who cannot be seen underground Light transactions, such as various captured creatures, storage rings of celebrities, and rare and rare treasures that are extremely rare.Of course, everyone has tacitly understood the source of goods, and everyone knows that this cannot be asked.
Usually, the income of auctions is higher than that of direct sales to merchants, so the items sold at auctions are often more precious. After all, sellers also want to obtain greater profits.
So what kind did they go this time?Cough, of course it is impossible for the second type to be assigned to the school.
The auction house is like a movie theater or a theater. The auditorium is dimly lit, and the only place with sufficient light is the stage, which is the place where the auction starts. shape of the alchemy table.
It seems that there are guests of different races, wearing all kinds of dresses, who are not employees, and Jia Luoqing knows that the customers are creatures from all over the world of floating clouds.
What's strange is that all the guests get along very harmoniously, and the enemies will at most glare at each other when they meet, and they don't do anything out of the ordinary.Rather than saying that they are educated, it is better to say that they are afraid to do it because of some rules or people.
According to Jia Luoqing's speculation, the guests would come to the venue through the teleportation array inside the store in different places just like them.But after Jia Luoqing was caught by friends from the Alchemy Department to chat, he learned that the number of participants was far more than what he had seen.
Just like the modern times with advanced communication technology, concerts are also broadcast live, many customers choose to stay in the private rooms in the branch, watch the real-time projection of the auction, and use various alchemy equipment to bid, and finally use the teleportation array to get back the auction proceeds of goods.
This method seems to be safer, no wonder there are so many advanced armors in the lobby when I came here, if all the branches use these advanced armors, it would be a big deal, unless the owner is a super powerful alchemist who doesn't worry about materials .
It seems that this should be a relatively high-end auction in this world, and the organizer is able to coordinate the conflicts among various races, and possesses a large amount of high-end armor, so it must not be an ordinary person.
Cough, by the way, why was Jia Luoqing arrested for chatting?
The thing is like this, when Jia Luoqing was helping to carry the less expensive things, several fellow alchemists who were connected with Jia's family saw her passing by and arrested her to chat. Jia Luoqing immediately knew that most of the people here, including The maids and porters are all part-time workers, and the permanent workers are only those who are above the manager level.
(Chu Qian: Ah Qing, is it really good for you to chat while you are doing tasks?)
[It's so strange, why don't you just hire permanent workers and only recruit part-time workers. ] Jia Luoqing felt more and more that something was wrong here. Why does such a powerful place always have a temporary feeling?
Also, what does the Alchemy Department do?It's just making those real-time projection products. Normally, they don't have anything to do now, but those friends of Jia Luoqing are boring people. After work, a group of people rented a box to watch the auction. Passing by Jia Luoqing who is a staff member.
And these people chatted until the auction was about to start, when Chu Qian came to look for Jia Luoqing.Fortunately, they are all students who have come here to learn a lot. If they were really employees here, they would have been fired a long time ago if they were so passive and sabotage.
The author has something to say:
The orz that seems to be written in a weird way (in short, I don’t feel it, it’s a bit bad, I feel sorry for myself and the people who read it, I’m sorry, it’s my fault, cover your face)
My head hurts these days QAQ
Classes start again today orz
After today, there will be a chance to update the next day if I don’t have time
I feel like no one will watch it, but let me tell you in advance^^
