1623 The Horn of the Deer God (2/2)
Mo Fan quickly paid the money to claim the item. The auctioneer would pay the tax on his behalf.
---
”Sir, do you want to take the item now? We can deliver it to your place...”
”I'll take it now.”
”Sure.”
Mo Fan felt much more at ease after claiming the Horn of the Deer God.
Zhao Manyan came up to him while drinking a bottle of juice, his face depressed. ”I know you earned a fortune from the bounty for the Tears of Medusa, but you shouldn't waste it like that. Why don't you tell me what the heck this shitty horn is good for?”
”Old Zhao, can't you tell?” Mo Fan asked seriously.
”Yes I can, you're an idiot!”
”Are you a pig? I see money as more important than my life, so why would I waste my money on something useless?! This thing, it's a Totem Artifact!” Mo Fan declared.
Zhao Manyan's expression immediately livened up. He took the Horn of the Deer God, currently sealed in a glass container, and studied it carefully. ”Why do you say it's a Totem Artifact?”
”Look, there's a Totem Seal,' Mo Fan pointed at the lines on the horn.
The lines were not obvious because of the horn's condition. Some were thick, some were thin. Only people that were familiar with Totem Seals would notice them.
”I...I don't see it...” Zhao Manyan admitted.
The truth was, Mo Fan had not seen the Totem Seal, either. He only knew it was related to a Totem Beast when Little Loach alerted him!
Little Loach rarely showed any interest in other things, except stuff at the level of the Pharaoh's Spring and the Totem Artifacts.
Mo Fan bid decisively for the Horn of God Deer when he noticed Little Loach was interested in it.
Mo Fan had immediately taken a closer look at the horn, and discovered that the lines on it did resemble a Totem Seal when looked at from certain angles. He was convinced that it once belonged to a Totem Beast!
The Totem Artifacts were all long lost. Shao Zheng had tried looking for them, yet he only managed to find some hints of them. Mo Fan did not expect to find one of them here in Athens!
It might mean that many Totem Artifacts had actually ended up in foreign countries. Some were being displayed in houses as rare collector's items, others were circulating in the auctions!
”It really belonged to a Totem Beast? What could it be?” Zhao Manyan exclaimed, choosing to believe in Mo Fan.
If they could track down another Totem Beast, they might have a chance to break the chains of the Advanced Level, too!
Mu Bai had already found his path to the Super Level. The two of them would have to work harder. It did not feel good knowing that Mu Bai had now caught up to them!
”It must be. We'll look for information about a Totem Beast that resembles a deer… with the Totem Seal, we should be able to find more information about it. Perhaps we can find a Totem Beast like the Moon Moth Phoenix, or something stronger!” Mo Fan conjectured happily.
”HAHAHA, we stumbled across it by luck, despite having no luck when we were actually looking for it!”
