【242】Auction
This box of hidden weapons, named Innuendo, was improved by Tang San and like the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, it could be fired three times.
It's just that the power is weaker than the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, but it can still fire 36 steel needles each time.
Tang Sect's classification of machine-type hidden weapons is mainly based on power. The reason why the famous Heavy Rain Pear Blossom Needle ranks among the best is not how intensive its attacks are, but its attack power.
The attack power of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow is already terrifying, three times that of the innuendo.
The Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle is more than five times as powerful as the Zhuge Divine Crossbow. Its firing speed and penetrating power can be imagined. It is a terrifying hidden weapon that cannot be dodged at all.
A series of dense ding ding sounded from the wall ten meters away, Tang San stretched out his hand, mobilized his soul power, used the Crane and Dragon Capture Kungfu to condense the yellow mist in the air, and shot out a blue silver grass from his fingertips, Absorb the poisonous mist on it.
Pointing to the opposite wall, he said:
"Please see."
The appraiser stepped forward quickly. When he saw the situation on the steel wall, he couldn't help but take a breath and said in surprise:
"What a domineering weapon."
The steel needle, about three inches long, was fully half submerged into the steel plate. The tail of the needle was still trembling violently. From the blue color of the steel needle, one could see the poison contained in it.
This does not include the yellow mist sprayed when launched. Such penetrating power is no longer something ordinary soul masters can withstand.
Tang San said:
"My insinuation can be fired three times after filling the steel needle, each time accompanied by a drug-like poisonous mist.
The steel needle itself contains paralyzing toxins. Once it pierces the skin, the paralyzing poison will occur.
According to my calculations, it can absolutely kill soul masters below level [-].
Soul masters above level [-] who have no ability to resist poison are also easily attacked.The steel needle is simple to make and can be reused. I can also provide a bottle of paralyzing venom. "
Tang San also walked to the steel plate, raised his right hand, and unhesitatingly took off the steel needles on the steel plate one by one, and pressed them back into the innuendo. The poison on the steel needles had no effect on him at all.
Xuan Yu Hands not only made his hands as hard as iron, but also blocked out all toxins.
Seeing Tang San put away all 36 steel needles that he shot, the appraiser finally came to his senses.
"Dear guest, although the material of your weapon is ordinary, its exquisiteness is the only one I have ever seen in my life.
Perhaps it is not very useful to a soul master, but to ordinary people, it is an excellent weapon.
I'm going to give it a starting price of one thousand gold soul coins. What do you think? "
The cost of this insinuation was only twenty gold soul coins. Of course, that was just the material cost.
This production process can only be completed by Tang San in the entire Douluo Continent.
Smiling and nodding, Tang San handed the insinuation to the appraiser, nodded and said:
"No problem, let's let it participate in the auction. Now we have the right to participate in the auction here."
The girl in charge of reception hurriedly said:
"Of course, our auctions are non-stop 24 hours a day and are all held in the auction center. You three, please follow me.
Your lots will appear at the auction soon. I will take three of you to go through the formalities first. "
The procedure is not complicated, just set up an account associated with the Golden Soul Coin stored value card at the auction house.
Through this account, Tang San can not only obtain the corresponding income after deducting the handling fee after the auction of the item, but also conduct auctions, provided that the amount in the account cannot be exceeded when bidding.
At the same time, the reception girl also briefly told them the rules here.
As the largest auction house in the entire Heaven Dou Empire, any lot may appear here.
The first rule of the auction house is not to inquire about the details of the seller, let alone disclose the situation of the auction items in the auction house to the outside world.
The business hours here are very long, with 24-hour cycle bidding and no rest time.
Every night is the time of the best auction. During those two hours, only buyers with a deposit of more than 100 million gold soul coins can participate.
At other times, any bidder may participate.
These rules are very simple, but Qian Bing can see that the 24-hour auction brings huge benefits to the auction house.
A [-]% commission for a precious auction item may not seem like much from a certain perspective, but in fact, it adds up to a terrifying amount of wealth.
It is even more huge than the income of a large soul fighting arena.
"Please take us to the auction house."
Under the leadership of the girl, the three finally got what they wanted and entered the real core of the Tiandou Auction House.
The auction center is located on the second floor of the auction house, and there are eight stairs to log in from the lobby.
Before entering the auction venue, the reception girl gave each of the three people a mask and told them that they would need to wear masks before participating in auctions in the future. This was for the safety of the customers.
Next time, no one will receive them again.
The girl took them to the entrance of the auction center before turning around and leaving. There was another attendant in the auction center.
Compared with the girl who led the way before, the dress of the waiters here couldn't help but make Qian Bing and Tang San blush a little.
The same white clothing is still a skirt, but the feeling is completely different.
The waiters in the auction center were all women, and their height was about the same as the girl who led the way before, but her figure was a little hotter.
The white skirts they were wearing had a large front placket and no sleeves. The short skirt was just seven inches above the waist, revealing their soft and smooth thighs. Coupled with the white high-heeled shoes, it was even more tempting and alluring. People have wild imaginations.
Even though Tang San was determined, he couldn't help but take a few more glances.But just at this glance, his lower back immediately hurt, and Xiao Wu's threatening voice could be heard in his ears.
"What are you looking at? Don't look at it."
Tang San felt pain and hurriedly whispered:
"You think I'm fat, go in."
Xiao Wu used her slightly taller figure than Tang San to try her best to block Tang San's sight, and then walked into the auction center led by that hot waiter.
The auction center feels more like a large auditorium. The layout is similar to the main fighting center of the big fighting arena. There is a circular podium in the center, with a ring of seats arranged in a radioactive ring around it. It is divided into five parts.
The three rows of seats closest to the podium are red, followed by black, purple, yellow and white, which are obviously set according to different levels of bidders.
The girl at the reception told them that the innermost red seat is entered through a special passage and is protected by special security personnel.
There is the so-called million-level VIP area, and people must be of status to qualify for the red VIP status.
The black seats placed around the outside are ordinary million-level VIP areas, and anyone who has money can enter.
Further outward, the purple ones are for 50-level VIPs, the yellow ones are for ordinary [-]-level VIPs, and the outermost white ones are also the largest seats, which are the most ordinary VIPs like Tang San and Xiao Wu.
The waiter took the two to the white area, indicating that the two could choose freely.
I don't know whether it was because Tang San and Xiao Wu looked too young, or because their VIP qualifications were too low, but the waiters were not enthusiastic.
He just led them to their seats professionally, without even the professional smile that he had when receiving young girls before.
Tang San didn't care, but Xiao Wu was a little dissatisfied.
"Hmph, dogs see people as inferior."
"This is true for all the waiters here, and it's not directed at you."
A gentle voice came from the side.
When Qian Bing turned around to look, he saw an elegant-looking middle-aged man in white smiling and nodding to them.
Strangely, he was not wearing a mask, and no service staff came to question him.
Xiao Wu couldn't help but ask:
"Is this the case? Why?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said:
“These waiters themselves belong to the auction house, including their lives.
They were all commoner women who were bought at an auction house at a very young age and were trained from an early age.
They are not only the service staff here, but also part of the auction.They can be bought and sold if someone is willing to pay for them. "
"Wouldn't that mean he became a slave? But didn't the two empires prohibit the slave trade?"
Tang San said with some surprise.
The middle-aged man smiled calmly and said:
"There is a lot of helplessness in this world. This is the Tiandou Auction House. Let alone slaves, there is nothing that we dare not sell here.
The reason why those girls have dull expressions is because they no longer have their own hearts, let alone their own destiny.
All they can do is obey.Although she looks beautiful, she has no soul of her own.What I gave them was only the word "pathetic". "
After listening to the middle-aged man's words, the expression on Xiao Wu's face gradually changed.
If she was disgusted with those scantily clad beautiful waiters before, then now her heart is full of sympathy.
"How much do they cost?"
Xiao Wu asked.
The middle-aged man seemed to have read through her thoughts.
"Do you want to buy them and set them free? That's just another tragedy."
Xiao Wu asked in confusion:
"why?"
"These waiters don't have any survival skills other than serving men. Even if you buy them, with their beauty, they will still fall into the arms of men in the end, and their fate will be even more miserable.
They have no soul and no world of their own.What's more, the price of each of them is as high as [-] gold soul coins. This price... not everyone is willing to spend money to buy them. "
There was a bit of helplessness in the middle-aged man's tone. He seemed to have a special temperament, which made it easy for people to feel kind from the heart.
At this time, there were not many bidders in the auction center, and only about one-fifth of them were sparsely seated.
A soul tool similar to a belt is being auctioned on the auction platform, and the price has already increased to [-] gold soul coins.
Next to each seat, there is a special bid button with four different buttons of one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand, and one hundred thousand, representing each additional price.
The middle-aged man seemed to be very interested in Qian Bing and the others, so he changed the topic and asked:
"You came to the auction house at such a young age, do you want to buy something?"
Xiao Wu said:
"We're not here to buy things, we're here to sell them."
"Oh?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said:
"You're selling things. Can't you tell, you're already auctioning off things at a young age."
Xiao Wu said:
"Who says you can't participate in auctions at a young age? Maybe in the future, when we have money, we can buy a soul bone to play with.
Hey, how do you know we are young? Do you have clairvoyance? "
Everyone was wearing a mask. Although Xiao Wu and Tang San's figures were still a little worse than adults, they weren't that much worse.
The middle-aged man praised:
"Okay, you have ambition, no wonder you can have such strength at such a young age.
Although you are wearing a mask, your childishness and eyes cannot conceal your age, and anyone with a discerning eye can naturally see it. "
After hearing these words, Tang San couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. Could it be that this person could see the strength of himself and Xiao Wu?
But why don't I feel any threat from him?
At this time, the soul tool on the stage has been successfully traded at a price of [-] gold soul coins.
The host on the podium held a megaphone and said to the bidders with a smile on his face:
"What we are going to auction next is a rare treasure. Please pay attention to those who are interested, especially the male VIPs."
While speaking, he motioned to the audience, and three strong men pushed up a cart.
The cart is covered with a red cloth, so you can't see what's inside, but from the appearance, it looks like a big square box.
Tang San, Xiao Wu, and even the middle-aged man's eyes were all attracted by this new lot, and they stopped talking.
The host said somewhat mysteriously:
"Can you all guess what this is? Well, let me first reveal the base price to all the distinguished guests. The starting price of this lot is [-] gold soul coins.
Each price increase must not be less than [-] gold soul coins, which is the best of the best. "
As the host of the auction house, mobilizing the atmosphere and the enthusiasm of the bidders is obviously a compulsory course, and he has successfully attracted the attention of the bidders.
"Now, all distinguished guests, please look carefully."
While speaking, he grabbed the red cloth and yanked it off.
After the red light flashed, what was revealed was not a box, but a huge iron cage.
Inside the iron cage, curled up a young girl.
Only key parts of the girl's body were covered with shells. Because she was curled up, her appearance was unclear, but her figure was almost perfect.
The fair skin is like crystal jade, and the short light green hair is unique.
"Perhaps the VIPs are wondering why such a girl can have such a high reserve price, the same price as the beauties trained in our auction house for many years.
But if you observe carefully, you will find that she is special. "
While talking, the host took out a stick from somewhere, stuck it into the iron cage, and gently lifted the short light green hair next to the girl's ears, exposing her ears.
Those ears did not belong to humans, but small, pointed ears similar to those of cats. Under the light touch of the stick, the ears turned slightly red.
