Although the tree branch was emitting strong magical waves, it was still a tree branch. How could it be considered a treasure?
"What … What kind of treasure is this? Could it be made into a magic staff? But the thickness and length don't seem to be enough to make a magic staff. "
How could a treasure look like this? Even if it couldn't be compared to the Origin Potion that had been auctioned for 3,000,000 gold coins, it should at least be similar to the Twilight Dragon Armor. However, looking at the nameless potion that had been auctioned for 10,000,000 gold coins and this tree branch, what exactly was William trying to do today?
Even though the Glittergold Trade Union had bid 10,000,000 gold coins for the nameless potion concocted by an unknown mage, no one believed that the potion was really worth 10,000,000 gold coins. What a joke! 10,000,000 gold coins were enough to establish a powerful force. What kind of potion could be worth that much?
"Yeah, there's nothing special about this thing. It should be from the Elven Kingdom, but to say that it's been passed down for countless years …"
"There are many plants that contain mana in the Emerald Forest. Who knows where he chopped this tree branch from? However, if it's a tree branch, it's not wrong to say that it's passed down for countless years. Perhaps that unlucky tree has really lived for countless years. "
Everyone was discussing fervently. Actually, they were all saying the same thing — they didn't believe it. What Elven Kingdom? What inheritance? What treasure? Wasn't it just a tree branch that contained some magical elements? Any material used to make a magic staff was the same, but this tree branch wasn't even enough to make a magic staff.
However, there were some people in the crowd who seemed to be deep in thought after seeing the tree branch. They weren't affected by the discussions around them at all.
One of them had just mocked William with the person on his left, but when he turned around, he realized that Sarde, the third member of the Wolf Brotherhood, had a strange expression. He asked curiously, "President Sarde, what do you think of this auction item? Do you know its origin?"
"Hmph." Sarde snorted in disdain. He didn't even look at the other party, and said proudly, "Captain Cole, I wonder if you've heard of Legolas."
"This … President Sarde, you must be joking. How could I not know about Legolas? He is the most famous Legendary powerhouse among the elves." A trace of displeasure flashed in Coll's eyes, but he did not show it on his face. He continued to smile as he asked, "What does this Legolas have to do with the branch on the stage?"
In the Breezy Plains, Legolas was far more famous than Grand Duke Hedrick. This was not only because he was an elf with a handsome face that would make women jealous, but more importantly, he was also a powerful Legendary-mage.
Although they were both Legendary powerhouses, a Legendary-mage was much stronger than a Legendary Sword Sage. In the eyes of ordinary people, Legendary Sword Saints were very powerful people, while Legendary Mages could already be considered gods. This was the difference between Legendary powerhouses.
Although Hedrick's deeds were earth-shattering, nearly a thousand years had passed after all. When people heard his legends now, they were no longer as moved as they had been in the past. However, Legolas was different. Although people knew of the existence of the Elven Kingdom, there were very few who had actually entered it. What could be more attractive than a mysterious powerhouse who walked out of the Mysterious Kingdom? Moreover, it had only been a few hundred years since Legolas was active. It was not so long ago that people had forgotten about him.
"Pfft, do you need me to remind you again? This branch is not an ordinary branch." Sarde raised his chin slightly, and said confidently, "Do you think that William has gone senile? Perhaps you feel that the magical energy contained in this branch is not very strong, but I have to tell you that you are wrong. But I have to tell you that you are wrong. The magical energy contained in this branch is definitely the purest elemental power. Pure, do you understand? "
Although Sarde was not a mage, as an outstanding assassin, it was necessary for him to have skills such as scouting and searching for traps. Hence, in terms of sensing magical energy, he was even more sensitive than ordinary mages. This time, it was obvious that his senses were indeed more accurate than the half-baked mage beside him.
Power that was too pure would be difficult to sense. It was precisely because of this reason that most people felt that the branch on the stage was very ordinary. In fact, pure magical energy was the most powerful. Perhaps a little bit of it could cause a magical storm.
"This … What do you mean?" Coll was a little confused. What did this branch have to do with the Legendary-mage Legolas?
"After the end of the Dark Age, the elves recuperated in the Emerald Forest. From the founding of the Elven Kingdom until now, there were only a few elves who appeared in the human kingdom. Among them, the most powerful one was the Legendary-mage Legolas. I don't believe that anyone has the ability to sneak into the Elven Kingdom to steal this treasure. Hence, the only person who could bring this treasure out is the elves themselves. "
Sarde's eloquent speech not only attracted Coll's attention, but also attracted the attention of the people around him. They listened while nodding their heads continuously, as if they agreed with what he said.
Although the Elven Kingdom was mysterious, everyone knew how powerful it was. There were even rumors that a Legendary-mage had entered the Emerald Forest, but did not make it out alive. In fact, it was not difficult to imagine that all the elves were soldiers. Coupled with their natural long lifespans and the talent of the High Elves' bloodline, only God knew how many Legendary-mages there were. It would not be surprising if there were even Sanctuary-realm powerhouses. Perhaps only Geresco would be able to steal such an important treasure from the Elven Kingdom.
"Hence, I think that this branch should have been brought out of the Emerald Forest by Legolas, and he has always been carrying it with him." Sarde was indeed an outstanding assassin. Before an assassination, an assassin would have to carefully plan the details of the operation and make countless assumptions in case of any accidents. After a series of deductions, he finally came to a conclusion.
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement. There were too many possibilities as to why the treasure ended up in this auction. Perhaps it was lost, or perhaps Legolas had already been killed by someone.
"President Sarde, what you said does make sense, but the problem is, how are you so sure that this branch came from the elves?" Coll suddenly asked. However, as soon as he asked this question, everyone around him turned their heads and looked at him as if they were looking at an idiot.
"Are you kidding me? How dare you question Master William's ability? Look at its appearance and feel the pure magical energy. If you don't have the ability to judge it yourself, you should just listen to the appraisal master, "someone mocked. After listening to Sarde's reasoning, some people immediately changed their attitude. They had just been doubting William, but in the blink of an eye, they had become his staunch supporters.
Sarde was not the only one who thought of Legolas. After all, the Legendary-mage Legolas was too famous. There were even people who found evidence from poems and used specious verses to prove that Legolas had once possessed a branch-like treasure.
"What a joke. These people really dare to say anything!"
After listening to his subordinate's report, Tedya sneered and looked downstairs. He was extremely disdainful of these people. He had originally asked his subordinate to gather some information to see if anyone could recognize the branch on the stage. However, he did not expect them to drag Legolas into this matter.
Although the Dark Blade had not yet been established when Legolas became famous, the Darkness Shrine, which had as long a history as the Brilliance Shrine, was behind the Dark Blade.
In order to learn Necromagic, Tedya had visited the Darkness Shrine many times and stayed there for a long time. Such miscellaneous information could be read by anyone in the Darkness Shrine. Hence, he had enough confidence in Legolas. He knew more details than others, and it was also more truthful.
If it were someone else, Tedya might have to consider it. However, he was very sure that it was impossible for this Legendary-mage Legolas.
The branch-like auction item did indeed have the aura of the elves, and the magical power it contained could be considered a treasure. However, this treasure was no different from a piece of trash in the hands of Legolas.
Seeing William open the box personally, Wilkinson immediately felt a wave of pure Elemental Power filling the entire auction venue. Originally, he had lost interest in the last auction item, but now, the auction item in the box grabbed his eyes tightly.
The aura of the last auction item was very familiar to Wilkinson, but he could not figure out what exactly this branch was.
At this moment, the discussion downstairs got louder and louder. Wilkinson vaguely heard someone mention the Legendary-mage Legolas, which made him think that there was something wrong with his ears. But after listening carefully, although it wasn't very clear, he still understood what they meant from the few words they said.
Hearing the buzzing discussion, Wilkinson felt amused. It seemed that the locals of the Breezy Plains did not know as much as him, an outsider. Although Wilkinson had always been in the Alanna Pharmacist Guild, he had only seen the outside world when he was sent to the Tower of Dusk for training. However, it was important to note that the Pharmacist Guild interacted with legendary powerhouses like Legolas, who was looked up to by all.
