C12 (1/2)
Nangong Jue sat in the private room of the underground auction. Through his mask, he looked at the items on the auction's list and frowned.
Although there was something he needed here, the auction was still going on. The slave was completely naked, and the children were written on the auction list. He had no good impression of this underground auction.
However, this auction house had really done a good job in terms of secrecy. The people who had come in were all wearing a long black cloak and a bronze mask. This way, other than the people around you, no one else would know your identity.
However, they didn't know who had done it in the capital without anyone knowing.
However, the items for this auction were indeed complete. Furthermore, there were all sorts of strange and bizarre things that could be found here.
As for Mo Yunfei, he actually had an invitation letter from the auction house, and it was even a VIP invitation letter. He lent it to him without any hesitation and didn't even ask any questions. He didn't even know what was going on.
”Your Highness!” When Thunder heard the sound below, he quickly reminded his master.
”Yes.” Nangong Jue recovered from his thoughts and stared at the auction stage below. His expression was still the same as before.
”Next, the item that we will be auctioning is a pill refined from the poison of the doctor, named Puppet Pill.”
The host paused for a moment before continuing.
”This pill is able to confuse the will of others. The person who consumes this pill will completely listen to your orders within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. He will do whatever you want him to do.”
The host's gentle voice came over, causing everyone's spirits to rise. Although the pill's time was a bit short, the effects of just this made him want to do whatever he wanted, causing many people to rush over like a flock of ducks.
As long as the pill was used properly, it could bring a lot of benefits, or it could achieve some unspeakable goals.
The host looked at the whispers, whispers, and the fanaticism in their eyes as they looked at the bottle that was protecting the pill. He could tell that this atmosphere had almost been stirred up.
”Alright, let the auction begin. The starting price is one hundred taels of gold.”
”Clang …”
As the gavel fell, the auctioneer said, ”Alright, the auction begins now.”
”One hundred and fifty taels!”
”One hundred and seventy taels!”
”275 taels!”
”Three hundred taels!”
”...”
In an instant, everyone raised the tags in their hands to bid, and the scene unexpectedly showed signs of spiralling out of control.
”Your Highness, this …” Thunder looked at the heated bidding and couldn't help but to be worried.
”One thousand taels!” Nangong Jue shouted loudly from within the room.
As his voice rang out, the bidding entered a stagnant state for a moment. Everyone looked at room number 7 in bewilderment. For a moment, there was a flurry of discussion, and there were no more bids.
”Alright, a thousand taels once!”
”One thousand silver twice!”
”A thousand taels three times!”
”Deal!”
The auctioneer dropped the gavel in his hand...
”Thunder, take this ring and trade.”
Nangong Jue passed the Ghost Head Ring that Mo Yunfei gave to him to Thunder. Then he sat down on a chair and leaned back in satisfaction.
