"Who the hell has the time to torture these good-for-nothings …" Gerian glared, and the few mages who were afraid of getting into trouble quickly shrank back. Only then did the fat old man continue, "When you first came to the Guild of Magic, wasn't I negotiating with the people from Shadow Capital? We were talking about the control of the Demon Fall Valley. I guess you remembered it then …"
"Oh! Yes, yes, yes … I remember now! That place belongs to our Guild of Magic? "
The words "our Guild of Magic" made Gerian feel great. This meant that Lin Li had gradually regarded himself as a member of the Guild of Magic. This was definitely a good sign in Gerian's eyes. He believed that as long as he put in more effort, he would definitely be able to put the hat of the President of the Guild of Magic on this kid's head.
"That's right!" Feeling great, Gerian was more patient in answering questions. "The reason why the Guild of Magic is still the number one force in Jarrosus today is that we have the control of the Demon Fall Valley. There are three rare mineral veins there, and all kinds of herbs are everywhere. Most importantly, it also produces all kinds of high-level magical crystals. When the Arcane Magic Potion is sold out, I'll bring you there to take a look, and you'll know."
Just as the two of them were talking, another three bottles of Arcane Magic Potion were sold. Among them, the lowest price was more than 30,000, and the highest had even reached 60,000 gold coins.
"From this auction onward, the number of Arcane Magic Potions will be increased to three bottles." The gavel in Kevin's hand landed heavily on the stage. "The base price is 50,000, with an increase of 5,000. Bidding begins!"
"50,000 gold coins!"
"70,000 gold coins!"
"80,000 gold coins!"
"100,000 gold coins!"
Kevin's gavel had just landed when the bidding voices rose and fell, each price higher than the other. In the blink of an eye, the three bottles of Arcane Magic Potion had been raised to a high price of 100,000.
"See that? The Rolin Family has made their move. Those earlier were just small fights. From now on, it's the main show. Just watch, if the final price of these three bottles is less than 200,000, I'll wring my own head off!" Gerian smiled proudly at the side.
"120,000!"
"140,000!"
The patriarch of the Rolin Family was in a killing frenzy. Competing with him was a beautiful young woman who looked to be in her thirties. She was as pretty as a flower, had a voluptuous figure, and a sweet and soft voice. Her every movement was full of charm. Perhaps only a wily old fox like Gerian could recognize that this beautiful young woman was actually Daphne, the leader of the Dark Moon, one of the six underground forces of Jarrosus. She controlled all the thieves in Jarrosus.
This was what Gerian said to Lin Li. "Do you remember the woman's face? If you ever lose your purse in the street, you can't go wrong looking for her. Remember, she's the chief thief, not the madam of a brothel. "
"…"
Anthony Luo Lin was so angry that his nose was about to bleed. He didn't think that the big families that he was most worried about didn't make a move, but instead provoked this crazy woman. He didn't think that this crazy woman would be so ruthless. She had already raised the price to one hundred and forty thousand, but she still wasn't willing to let go. If she continued to raise it like this, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to take it anymore.
One hundred and forty thousand gold coins had actually exceeded the bottom line of the Rolin Family, but Anthony Luo Lin had no choice but to hold on.
These three bottles of Arcane Magic Potion were his best chance. Now, giants like the Merlin Family, the Mannes Family, and the Saruman Family hadn't made a move. Once they did, there would be nothing left for the Rolin Family.
Moreover, Anthony Luo Lin really needed these three bottles of Arcane Magic Potion. The youngest of his three sons was already sixteen years old, but he was still only a level-four mage apprentice. He was only one step away from level-five. Just one step, but that step couldn't be crossed no matter what.
Which parent in the world didn't want their children to be successful?
So when he heard that the Guild of Magic was about to auction the Arcane Magic Potion, he was really overjoyed. He immediately raised a large sum of money and even dealt with a few profitable businesses at a low price, all so that his three sons could smoothly become mages. But the Rolin Family was not the Merlin Family. The funds he could mobilize were only about two hundred thousand. If this crazy woman continued to hold on, Anthony Luo Lin really didn't dare to imagine …
But things in this world were often like this. The more you didn't want it to happen, the more it would happen.
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, Daphne bid again, "Two hundred thousand gold coins!"
When he heard this number, Anthony Luo Lin suddenly felt his vision go black …
At this moment, Anthony Luo Lin even thought of pouncing on this crazy woman and strangling her to death.
But this was just a thought. Not to mention that this crazy woman's strength was not inferior to his, he probably wouldn't be able to strangle her to death even if he pounced on her. Disrupting the auction alone was probably enough to make him suffer. This was not the Emerald Tower of the past. Now, the Guild of Magic was like the sun in the sky. Even the Merlin Family didn't dare to confront it head-on. Provoking the Guild of Magic head-on was no different from courting death. With that old fellow Gerian's character, he would probably be blasted down by a fireball before he could pounce on the crazy woman.
Anthony Luo Lin hesitated for a long time, and finally put a hand into his coat pocket.
"Two hundred thousand going once!
"Two hundred thousand going twice!
"Two hundred thousand going thrice …"
Just as Kevin was about to knock for the third time, Anthony Luo Lin suddenly walked out from the crowd. "Wait a minute, Mage Kevin!"
"What's the matter? Mr. Anthony. " Kevin's heart leaped with joy, but he forced a look of embarrassment on his face. "Do you have any questions about the auction process?"
"No, no, no, I absolutely, absolutely didn't mean that …" Anthony Luo Lin waved his hands repeatedly. This was not a joke. Having doubts about the auction was tantamount to having doubts about Gerian's character. It was tantamount to provoking the Guild of Magic. Even if he had ten guts, he wouldn't dare to provoke the Guild of Magic that was like the sun in the sky.
"Previously, I remember Mr. Gerian said that if there is insufficient cash, we are allowed to replace it with items of equal value. Now I would like to ask Mr. Gerian to appraise how much this thing is worth."
