Chapter 781: Sorceress's Temptation

Everyone in the hall looked at Ren.

This is his home court, no matter what kind of mind the bidders have, as long as they want to get the floating city, they must pay attention to every word he says today.

Even the five powerful Holy Soul Wizards showed a focused look.

Ren didn't have the slightest stage fright, and said with a smile: "This auction will be in the form of a dark auction. Everyone has three chances to bid for a total of three rounds. After each round of bidding, I will announce the winner of this round. but will not reveal the winner's bid and then proceed to the next round of bidding."

"Everyone has an opportunity to talk to me alone, either after the first round of bidding, or before the last bid."

"Of course, this opportunity is not up to you."

"As for the rules of the auction, if you still have questions, you can ask them." Ren looked around. The meaning of this sentence is that I have the final say. The bidders obviously expected this situation, and they also no disagreement.

Ren added: "In addition, I must declare in advance that the starting line I can accept is 60 million gold shields..."

Before he could finish speaking, someone exclaimed, "It's so expensive!"

It was the Duke of Silver Star who spoke out. She stared at Ren and asked, "Is the outer shell of your floating city made of gold, or is the core of Eola made of divine fire?"

Other bidders also nodded, saying that the starting price was too high, and it was unbearable.

The volume of Xinxiang Floating City is the smallest among all the floating cities. In order to build the floating city as soon as possible, the Modu nobles shrunk many designs and reduced the space. Although this will not weaken the offensive and defensive power of the floating city, too small size limits future development and is not conducive to expanding power and influence.

If the core of Eola is removed, the shell of Xinxiang Floating City is worth about 30 million gold shields.

Moreover, the Xinxiang Floating Void City has been damaged, so a discount should be given.

Ren was unmoved.

The Duke of Silver Star is building momentum for the bidding, hoping to gather all the bidders before the start and put pressure on himself to lower the price together.

"Look, where is there a floating city now?" Ren shrugged, "This is the only floating city you can buy. You think it's expensive, and I think it's too expensive."

The overtone is whether you like to buy or not.

Seeing that he didn't like this, Duke Silver Star said angrily: "As long as the floating city is good, then I will definitely buy it. Let me ask you, can you guarantee that this floating city is good?"

Ren's mouth twitched, and he smiled indifferently, "Lord Duke, with my reputation, will I sell you a bad floating city?"

"Just say if you can guarantee it!" Duke Silver Star insisted.

"Is the Duke deliberately trying to find fault?" The smile on Ren's face subsided, staring at Duke Silver Star coldly, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

The Holy Soul Wizards were all used to Ren's strength, and their expressions didn't change.

The others were startled, and they were all very uneasy, thinking that Ren was too daring to speak to the Holy Soul Wizard like this.

And he is also a vassal of the Duke of Silver Star, isn't he afraid of Duke Silver Star's anger?

"Ren."

This time, it was Tim Kennan who was speaking. His attitude towards Renne was obviously different from that of Dean Margarita just now, with a smile on his sturdy face.

Ren replied, "Master Kenan, please speak."

"Before the auction, I want to check the situation of the floating city. There are many rumors outside..." Duke Gray Eagle made a request.

"Okay, let's check then."

Ren agreed.

The face of the three giants of the empire still has to be given, and before the attack on the floating city, the teacher also asked Master Tim Kenan to store the nine-ring cracking technique, which is considered to owe him a favor.

In fact, he was already prepared. The transaction of tens of millions of gold shields is not a child's play. The bidders must confirm the status of the goods. The reason why he hates the Duke of Silver Star like this is to suppress her arrogance and make her feel a sense of crisis that she is not going to sell the Floating City to her, so as to squeeze more oil and water on her.

Sure enough, the Duke of Silver Star saw that Ren immediately agreed to Tim Kennan's request, his face was full of haze and it was very ugly.

"Everyone, come with me."

The voice fell, and a tall portal opened in the middle of the hall.

Ren went in first, and the others followed.

The other end of the portal leads directly to the control room of Xinxiang Floating City. The broken gate has been repaired and closed, and the outside scene cannot be seen. The rune magic circle in the control room is also intact. Here, Ren can use the energy of Eola's core to cast spells and master the overall situation.

The core of Eola slowly rotates in mid-air, like a small sun.

Except for Tim Kennan, Congerard and the Storm Queen, the three Holy Soul wizards who already own the floating city, everyone else entered the control room of the floating city for the first time. After entering, they immediately opened their eyes and looked around. Full of surprises.

The control room is the most important place in a floating city.

The owner of the floating city will never let outsiders in easily. This is a rare opportunity to visit in a lifetime.

Everyone was staring at the core of Eola, the gentle but not dazzling light made them sense the huge energy, and they couldn't help but be fascinated and longing.

"Master Kenan, great sage."

Ren stood under the core of Eola, and a cordon was set up on the ground to indicate that it could not be crossed. He said: "The two masters can check whether the core of Eola is in good condition. Also, the rune magic circle in the control room. It can also be used normally.”

"Your Excellency, it's forbidden to take pictures here."

Although the bidders sent by the two newspapers were legendary wizards, they actually came to make up the numbers. They exchanged a deposit of five million gold shields for an admission qualification. The real purpose was to conduct on-site interviews.

As soon as they entered the control room, they took out the camera, which is completely the style of the reporter.

Ren immediately ordered a ban.

The expressions of the two legendary wizards were a bit embarrassed and regretful, but they had to put away the camera and apologize to Ren.

Bidders move around the spacious control room.

In fact, there is nothing to see. There is nothing in the control room except the core of Eola. Layers of rune formations are engraved on the ground, walls and ceiling, but they are all protected by confidentiality. to what magical knowledge.

After a few minutes.

Tim Kennan and Congerald looked at each other, nodded slightly, and said, "No problem. The core of Eola and the rune circle in the control room are functioning normally."

The bidders are relieved.

The two holy soul wizards with high morals and esteem have done the inspection, and they will definitely not go wrong.

There were also three Holy Soul Wizards, a Destruction Warlock, and an Earth Saint, each with amazing eyesight and insight. If there was a problem, it was almost impossible to hide from their eyes.

As long as the control room is good, I'm not afraid that the floating city won't be able to fly.

"What about outside?"

The Duke of Silver Star stood in front of the door of the control room and asked aloud: "The control room is fine, but other parts of the floating city are also very important. I need to know the overall damage and estimate the cost and time to repair it. Better judge the value of the floating city."

"Silver Star is right." The Storm Queen immediately expressed her support.

The Lord of Hasstaff and his wife also nodded in agreement, as did Dean Margarita, Countess Kaelin, and the Holy Maiden of the Earth.

Ren scanned the bidders.

Obviously, the Duke of Silver Star has learned to be smart this time, and doesn't want to be targeted by him alone, so he dragged his two sisters. The Storm Queen does not have a relationship with her, but in terms of price reduction, their interests are the same, and the Lord of Hettarf is their brother-in-law, so naturally they will not object.

Someone took the lead, and someone immediately followed suit.

"The control room can be seen, but not outside." Ren flatly rejected the request and said lightly: "This is for the consideration of buyers who will eventually win the floating city."

The bidders understood right away.

The control rooms of the floating city are similar, and no information will be leaked.

But the outside is different. From the layout of the floating city, many secrets can be inferred. No matter who becomes the next master of the floating city, they do not want to be known about the internal situation. Even though many people in Xinxiang Floating City have come in, the fewer people who know it, the better.

"As long as you win the auction, you can do whatever you want in the future, but now I'm obliged to keep it a secret for the future owner of the floating city."

Ren's reason was impeccable.

If bidders can see the damage to the floating city, even if it is not serious, they will take the opportunity to lower the price and simply not let them see it. Anyway, the damage to Xinxiang Floating City is not high. It is estimated that it can be repaired with three or four million gold shields and materials, and it is not a scam.

He looked at Duke Silver Star, "I can guarantee that Xinxiang Floating City will be repaired and take off soon, and there will be no risk of crash."

"If you don't believe me, you can quit now, and I will pay back the security deposit immediately."

The Duke of Silver Star was speechless.

In fact, she still has many excuses to find faults, but this auction is an absolute seller's market. Renn's advantage is too great, and he is not afraid that the floating city will not be sold.

The bidders were silent for a few seconds, and no one raised any further objections.

Ren made a gesture of please.

Everyone went through the portal to return to the castle hall. Ren was the last to come back. After closing the portal, he said, "You have ten minutes to think about it, and then give me your first bid."

With a wave of his hand, twelve memory crystals flew up from the tray in Fabian's hand and fell precisely into the hands of each bidder. This kind of magic crystal can memorize the content of thoughts. It can be used in the hand without speaking. Even the Holy Soul Wizard cannot steal it, so it is very safe.

There are also twenty-four memory crystals on the tray for the next two rounds of bidding.

The bidders sat on the sofa, lost in thought.

Most of the people were thinking alone. Only the Lord Hastaff and his wife turned on a small soundproof force field, and their figures were also blocked by a layer of shadows, and they communicated silently with spiritual magic.

Needles can be heard in the hall.

The Viola people who visited the auction did not dare to make a sound, for fear of disturbing these big men.

Ren sat in the middle with a very relaxed attitude.

Someone completed the bid in less than two minutes. The legendary wizard sent by the two newspapers, after entering the content, handed in the memory crystals one after the other.

Ren caught the crystal and read it, his face did not fluctuate.

These two are the atmosphere group who came to accompany the run.

Sure enough, their bids were exactly the same, 60 million gold shields, and then nothing else. Sixty million gold shields is the starting price set by himself, and it is impossible to win the floating city. However, there is no rule that each bid must be higher than the previous round, so they cannot be kicked out on the grounds of elimination.

The third memory crystal flew over, and the bidder was Akland.

He represented the Steam and Machinery Union, and he was a very familiar friend with Ren, but he didn't say a word after arriving today.

"Seventy million gold shields."

"Ren, I want to talk to you privately after this round of bidding."

There are only these two sentences in the memory crystal.

The first round of bids was just a test. Generally, high prices and additional conditions would not be given. The Mechanics Union raised ten million gold shields. Ren glanced at Akland and nodded to him.

Akalander's face beamed with joy.

When the bidders saw the gesture between the two, a few of them couldn't help it. Within half a minute, five memory crystals flew in in a row and gave Ren the price.

Countess Kellin made the fourth bid.

What she gave was 40 million gold shields plus a fief around Modu. The area was similar to that of Glamorgan. It was located in the western suburbs of Modu. More than 20 million gold shields.

This fief was pieced together by the five noble families of Modu.

Countess Kailin represents the overall interests of the five noble families. In order to take back Xinxiang Floating City, she was willing to cede even the fiefs that were the foundation of the nobles. This shows that they attach great importance to it.

Then there was Margarita from the Academy of Warlocks of Eratossa, this beautiful sorceress, who offered 50 million gold shields and the lifetime service of 100 sorceresses to pay her personal allegiance to Ren.

In addition, she promised that if she entered the Supreme Council, she would be willing to join the Modus faction.

The memory crystal also attached the information of one hundred sorceresses, including their names, ranks and origins, their respective abilities, and finally attached their photos.

I have to say that the sorceresses are beautiful, all of them are outstanding beauties, each with their own temperament, thin and fat, and the more powerful they are, the more beautiful they are. Among them, there are two legendary sorceresses who are only more beautiful than Viola. Slightly worse.

This is a naked seduction. I want to set up a huge harem for myself, and I will pile up every day. Even if my body is iron, I can't bear to face a hundred beauties...

Ren didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he was also vaguely moved.

Well, this bid is very competitive!

In comparison, Dean Sabra's bid was boring.

He gave 30 million gold shields plus a batch of magic items worth 10 million, and within 300 years, he unconditionally agreed with Ren's proposal at the Supreme Council.

Sabra especially emphasized that it is not the support of Anse Waldos, but Wren himself, which is very intriguing.

There is a difference.

Of course, if Renne asked to support Anse Waldos, Dean Sabra would do the same.

If Ren's goal is to control the Supreme Council, Dean Sabra's **** vote is extremely valuable, but he is planning to overthrow the Supreme Council!

Not to mention three hundred years.

Perhaps thirty years from now, the Supreme Council will cease to exist.

Ren had already rejected Dean Sabra's bid in his heart. After all, Sabra had just been canonized as the Duke of Blue Oak, and the territory was not warmed up. These 30 million gold shields and 10 million magic items should be Brower The upper limit of the funds that the Institute can come up with.

He even despised the offer from the Church of the Earth.

Saintess Rosita gave 20 million gold shields and the opportunity to conclude a millennium covenant with the Ring of Earth. There is no doubt about the strength of the Ring of Earth. Those Earth nuns who are not afraid of death are extremely powerful in combat. The prestige of this legion is resounding all over the world, and it is one of the most powerful extraordinary legions in the main material world.

If it is fully supported by the Ring of Earth and lasts for a thousand years, the value of this covenant is almost comparable to that of half a floating city.

The Earth Church is very sincere.

It's a pity that Ren has no interest at all. It's been a thousand years, and it's just a matter of time. Moreover, the Extreme Warband and the Thundercast Legion will not be much worse than the Ring of the Earth, and may be stronger in the future.

The Church of the Earth is not rich, and 20 million gold shields is the limit they can give, but the Lord of Hastav is the opposite. He controls the city of Shenzhen and the trading city-state of Turde, and his personal strength and extraordinary legion are far inferior to the earth. Church, but there is money!

The city owner and his wife of Hasstaff bid 75 million gold shields, which is higher than the mechanical union.

In the next two rounds, they will definitely give a higher price.

If the competition is only for the golden shield, there are only two protagonists in this auction, the Lord of Hasstaff and the Mechanical Union, and the Queen of Storms is not as good.

The Storm Queen's bid was fifty million gold shields, as well as herself.

She offered to be Ryan's lover.

In other words, the Storm Queen is willing to pay in flesh.

Ren wanted to complain, is your body made of gold or divine fire? I don't know how many people have tasted it, and it's worth 10 million gold shields? However, it is estimated that Storm Queen's bid is also a test, just playing around, with her unpredictable and smoky personality, it is possible to do it.

Then there is the memory crystal of Tim Kennan, who gave 40 million gold shields and a batch of magic items worth 25 million, as well as the demon soul of an ancient black dragon.

The ancient black dragon is a holy order.

Tim Kennan saw that Ren was already at the pinnacle of legend, and he was probably ready to attack the holy soul, so he took out the demon soul of the ancient black dragon, which can be said to be very heartfelt.

The value of the ancient black dragon's demon soul is much higher than that of ordinary holy monsters.

However, Ren looked at the element information of this black dragon and found that it was not suitable for him, and Duke Gray Eagle's plan was about to fail.

The great sage of Congerard's bid was similar, 40 million gold shields and 20 million alchemy materials, including a large number of rare items, many of which can only be collected from other planes, even if there is money and nowhere to buy them.

Finally, there are two Ain stones.

The value of the Ain Stone is no less than that of the legendary item, but it can be mass-produced The real price is definitely not as good as the unique legendary item. And the more Ain stones, the stronger the power. If there are only two, it is still not enough.

The bids of the two Holy Soul Wizards were slightly conservative.

The Duke of Silver Star was the most tangled. With the last bid, Ren read her memory crystal and saw the core of Eola at first sight, and he was instantly refreshed.

She was quite right, she guessed her needs, and it might be Viola's words revealed to her.

Ren didn't mind this.

With the economic strength of the Duke of Silver Star, she would have nothing else to impress her without taking out the core of Eola. She gave the core of Eola, five million gold shields, and three unconditional votes in the High Council.

Ren smiled contemptuously in his heart, who is he looking down on?

After reading all the memory crystals, he put it in the Nebula Ring, and pretended to think deeply for a while, then he opened his mouth under the nervous gaze of the bidders, and said, "I have finished reading the first round of bids, and I announce that the winner is Dean Margarita."

"what……"

"how can that be?"

Everyone was stunned. No one expected this result. Even Margarita was stunned. When she realized that everyone's eyes were focused on her, she realized that she had a surprise on her beautiful face.
