Afterward, the middle-aged wizard put the crystal back and snapped his fingers. A flash of light appeared and disappeared. Moments later, someone knocked on the door of the room. Afterward, a wizard walked in and handed a brocade box to the middle-aged wizard.
"Sir, this is the advanced soul crystal that we have in our store."
The middle-aged wizard opened the brocade box and saw a purple crystal the size of an egg sitting quietly inside. Hathaway reached out and picked up the crystal. Afterward, she began to inspect it.
Soon, Hathaway finished her inspection. This was indeed an advanced soul crystal. Since there was no problem with the goods, the next step was to discuss the price.
"Sir, if you want to use magic crystals to exchange for high-grade soul crystals, you will need at least 30 magic crystals of this size to exchange for one high-grade soul crystal." The middle-aged wizard pointed at the magic crystal on the side.
"Impossible. This price is too ridiculous." Suhlen rejected without even thinking.
"Although a soul crystal is precious, its value is not as high as 30 magic crystals."
"Sir, you should be well aware of the preciousness of high-grade soul crystals. These low-grade magic energy crystals aren't bad, but they aren't too rare. If you want to exchange them for high-grade soul crystals, you'll have to raise the price." The middle-aged adept explained with a smile.
"Even so, this price is already more than double! We will not accept this price. "Suhlen shook his head.
"Alright then. How many do you think are suitable?" The middle-aged Magus carefully observed the expressions on their faces, trying to figure out what was going on. Unfortunately, both of them were wearing masks and cloaks, so he couldn't see any abnormalities. This made the middle-aged Magus feel a little disappointed, and he muttered to himself.
"Judging from their size, they should be a man and a woman. Judging from their voices, they should be quite young. It's just a little strange that there are not many Great Wizard-level Witches, and there are only a few of them in the vicinity of the Kingdom of Florence. Besides, there are not many young ones. Could it be that they just advanced? I haven't heard of any wizard organization that has advanced recently. Could it be a wandering wizard or a traveler from somewhere else? "
"The male Sorcerer beside her is a Grade 2 Sorcerer. Could he be the Sorcerer's boy toy? I'm so lucky to have a Great Adept as my mistress. Wouldn't it be easier for me to advance in the future? " Suhlen didn't know that the middle-aged man in front of him had already identified him as a man who lived off a woman. If he knew, he would definitely teach him a lesson personally.
"I think twenty Mana Crystals for one Advanced Soul Crystal is very suitable." Suhlen thought for a moment and said. According to this price, the soul crystals would be purchased at a premium of one-third.
"I'm sorry, but we can't accept this price." The middle-aged Magus shook his head.
After that, Suhlen's group and the middle-aged Adept went back and forth over the price. Finally, they reached a price that both parties could barely accept. Twenty-three magic crystals for a high-grade soul crystal, which was a 50% premium.
After confirming the price, the two sides began to trade. Suhlen took out ninety-two magic crystals of similar size from his storage space and gave them to the middle-aged wizard. He then put away four high-grade soul crystals.
Seeing Su Lun take out so many Magic Crystals at once, the middle-aged wizard was also secretly shocked. "They couldn't have found a Magic Crystal mine, could they?"
After completing the trade, Suhlen's group didn't stay any longer and immediately left the shop. After taking out such a large amount of Mana Crystals for the trade, both of them became more vigilant.
Humans would die in pursuit of wealth, and birds would die in pursuit of food. This was a famous saying in both his previous life and this world. As long as there were enough benefits, he didn't think that no one would dare to do anything to him, a rank 4 great wizard and a rank 2 wizard.
Even though the shops here were very trustworthy, if the person who leaked the money was not a member of the nearby Magus organisation, it was very likely that he was a wandering Magus or someone who came from another region to explore. He still had to be careful to avoid being tricked. Hence, after completing the trade, the two of them didn't stay any longer. They pretended to continue looking for items while being cautious to see if anyone was spying on them.
After making sure that no one was following them, Suhlen and Hathaway continued to walk to the other shops.
However, what happened next made him very disappointed. After entering a few shops, he couldn't find the materials that Hathaway needed. It wasn't that these shops didn't have anything good. Some of the magic materials that the shops actively recommended were very rare. Hathaway was also tempted, but unfortunately, they didn't have enough to trade.
In the Magus World, although Kinnar could be used, many high-grade items couldn't be bought with Kinnar. They could only be exchanged with other materials. Kinnar could only buy some low-grade magic materials and magic items.
He still wanted to see if he could exchange the remaining items in his storage space for a legendary Elemental Core. The most important material in the Arcane Garden was the legendary Elemental Core. With this, Suhlen could start building the Sky Garden.
"Looks like we can only wait for the auction." After walking around all the shops, the two of them stood at the end of the street and shook their heads helplessly.
The auction in the Magus Town would be held in three days. Suhlen and Hathaway naturally didn't plan to wait here for three days. After finding the auction and buying a voucher, Suhlen and Hathaway took the Pegasus from the inn and left the Magus Town together.
The Pegasus' speed was very fast. At about ten o 'clock at night, the two of them would arrive at North Town City. In the next two days, Hathaway began to prepare to make a rock puppet, and Suhlen prepared all kinds of magic materials.
In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. Early in the morning of the third day, after Suhlen had arranged everything, he took Hathaway and rode the Pegasus straight to the Magus Town. After arriving at the Magus Town, the number of Magi in the town had more than doubled compared to the last time they were here. It seemed like any Magus with a little bit of status wouldn't want to miss this annual auction.
At the entrance of the Magus Town, there were also extra people. As soon as they walked into the Magus Town, the whole street was full of Magi in all kinds of clothes. There were many people in strange clothes, and there were even more who wore cloaks like Suhlen and Hathaway.
The two of them didn't stop outside. After settling the Pegasus in the inn, they directly took the auction voucher and went to the huge castle at the end of the street. In front of the castle's gate, a few Magi were buying admission vouchers. There was a layer of water blue light at the gate.
Hathaway took out the voucher and injected a little bit of magic into it. A blue light shot out from the voucher, and the water blue light immediately opened up a two meter wide passage.
The two of them didn't stop and walked in. As soon as they entered, the energy barrier behind them returned to its original state. After entering the castle, they realized that the castle was bigger than it looked from the outside. The whole hall was more than a thousand square meters. At the front of the hall, there was a wide platform. At this time, there was nothing on the platform. There were all kinds of tables and chairs neatly arranged in the hall, and there were some Magi already sitting on the seats.
The Magi in this hall were all Rank 1 and Rank 2 Magi. There were about two to three hundred people in total. On the second floor of the hall, there were individual private rooms. These private rooms were only for advanced Magi, and of course, they had to pay more. Under the guidance of a staff member, the two of them came to a private room on the second floor.
After waiting quietly for more than an hour, there were about four to five hundred Rank 1 and Rank 2 Magi in the hall downstairs. A few bell rings sounded, and the auction officially began.
Suhlen and Hathaway sat in the private room and quietly looked at the platform in the hall. On the platform, a middle-aged Magus in a silver Magus robe was holding a green Magus Magic Staff and briefly introducing it.
"Thorny Magic Staff: This is a Magic Staff made with great care by Master Olivander. The main material of the Magic Staff is magic willow. This material is very suitable for the transmission of magic. The material is also very tough. After being made into a Magic Staff by Master Olivander, it can increase the casting speed and reduce the casting difficulty. It can also slightly increase the power of spells.
In addition, this Magic Staff also contains a defensive spell called Thorny Shield. It can be released instantly without any preparation. The starting price of this Magic Staff is 100,000 Kinnar worth of magic materials. Intermediate magic materials cost 1.5 times the price. Advanced magic materials don't need to go over the price. Every increase is 5,000 Kinnar worth of magic materials. "
The Magus in charge of the auction was a Rank 3 Magus. Although he was a little far away, his voice could be heard clearly throughout the hall. He was very proficient in sound amplification.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately raised their paddle. Then, the price of this Thorny Magic Staff, which Suhlen thought could only be considered decent, quickly rose to 130,000 Kinnar worth of magic materials.
Although this Magic Staff had many functions, such as reducing the casting difficulty, reducing the consumption of magic, and increasing the power of spells, these effects were just barely satisfactory. The Magus who made this Magic Staff wanted to take care of everything, but in the end, it didn't meet his expectations in all aspects.
The following auctions were also carried out in a lukewarm manner. During this time, some decent items appeared. For example, there was a Dragon Skin Robe. The magic light on it had already reached Rank 3. It was a very good robe. Suhlen only called out the price once, and the price exceeded 200,000 Kinnar worth of magic materials. He could only give up.
In the end, this Dragon Skin Robe was sold for 280,000 Kinnar worth of magic materials. This price had actually exceeded the value of the item itself. Of course, it was normal for the price to be higher in an auction.
Other than these equipment, the most popular items in the auction were various potions. For example, the Azure Potion, which could increase the efficiency of meditation, was very popular. Every time it appeared, it would be highly sought after.
