"Six hundred and ten thousand!"
By the time Gavin understood the situation, the auction had already entered a heated stage and the prices had reached astronomical levels.
Even for a legendary piece of equipment, this price already exceeds its value.
If we only talk about gold coins, many people may not have any idea, but if you convert it into weight, you will know how expensive it is. Regular gold coins on the market are around ten grams, and the weight alone can reach six point one tons, which is enough to buy everything in a small village.
The merchants who tried to take advantage of the situation at the beginning have disappeared. If you are not careful, this equipment may end up in your hands.
The rest all have a need for this equipment. Just look at their situation on the Golden Dome Divine Curtain.
Their image was a shadowy mist shrouded in golden light, which contrasted beautifully with the auction item.
This is not their own ability, but the unified mosaic of the Golden Dome Divine Curtain.
Before the bidding begins, the Golden Summit God will automatically ask the bidders whether they are willing to disclose their information.
If agreed, it will be made public as before.
If you disagree, it will remain confidential as it is now.
After all, the equipment they are auctioning now is really too expensive, and its liquidity is usually very low. Once you buy it, you usually won't sell it again for the rest of your life, so you naturally have to be careful.
I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it.
There is never a shortage of desperate people in this world who are willing to take risks for money.
"Six hundred and fifty thousand... It was detected that the total net worth of the 23rd bidder was undervalued, so he has been removed from the auction... The auction will be postponed to the previous round..."
The golden-roofed divine curtain flickered, showing off its other ability once again, giving no chance for those who wanted to take advantage of the situation.
Since he had this ability, collecting auction money would naturally not be a problem.
This ability can only be understood by the bidders who participate in it - the golden light shrouding them is not just to display them on the golden roof curtain, but it has substantial power and will move with them, including teleportation.
During the auction, they will be dipped in the order of the money, goods and equipment they bring.
The value of the dip is exactly what they marked it as, no more, no less.
Once the auction is successful, it will be deducted automatically.
When it comes to goods and equipment, a voice will communicate with them in advance, appraise their equipment and goods, and offer a relatively fair and reasonable price - based on the normal market price.
Only proceed after agreeing.
If you disagree, your bid will fail directly, just like what happened just now.
In addition, there is a third option, which is to make a temporary loan from the Church of Woking.
This option is not available to everyone. Only those who have undergone property registration and wealth assessment by the Church of Woking will have loan amounts of varying amounts, usually related to their wealth assessment value, to ensure that they have the ability to repay.
The Woking Church did not establish its church bank from scratch; instead, it already had a solid foundation. It only needed to optimize and improve the original business, and then further expand on this basis.
"One million and thirty thousand... one million and thirty thousand once... one million and thirty thousand twice... one million and thirty thousand three times... congratulations to bidder No. 8 for winning this auction... This is the highest single item auction in history... This will be remembered in the auction history of Faerun..."
The golden-roofed divine screen flashed three times in succession, and the huge numbers on the screen froze completely, and then turned into a huge golden scale.
At one end of the golden scale is the legendary leather armor called [Hymn of the Night], and at the other end are neatly stacked gold bricks.
If we simply talk about gold coins, many people have no idea, but if we convert it into weight, we will know the gold content.
The Coin of the Gods weighs 15 grams. One million Coins of the Gods weighs 15 tons, which is a square with a side length of nearly one meter.
Killing someone with gold coins is not a joke, it is real.
When the golden scale reached balance, it did a 180-degree rotation, and the chips on both sides turned into two golden lights, falling into the hands of the auctioneer and the bidder respectively.
At the same time, countless gold powders scattered from the golden scales, covering the entire trade square. Everyone present couldn't help but reach out to catch the gold powder.
Although these gold powders are not real objects and will melt away like snowflakes once they fall on your hands, everyone still enjoys doing it.
The silver coin priest couldn't help but smile, and his attitude was more enthusiastic than before. This matter was directly related to his interests. "Madam, you now have three ways to settle the bill."
"Speak." The Shar priestess hiding in the shadows spoke briefly.
“The first method is to settle directly with the gold bricks that the other party has just paid.
The second method is to settle in the currency specified by the lady, whether it is Nord, Gold Dragon, or Goddess Coin.
The third method is the newly launched Gods Coin by our church.
I personally strongly recommend ladies to use the third method. This currency blessed by the gods will gradually replace the Goddess Coin and become the common currency of our Waukeen Church.
Our church promises that you can exchange it for any non-rare currency of equivalent value.
If you agree to this payment method, there is also a special offer, I can open a magic silver card for you, no, a magic gold card.
You will become a VIP guest of our Woking Church and will have priority access to special services that are only available to some of our internal staff.
For example, some commercial information that is not open to the public, such as reward purchases, loans, or remote deposit and withdrawal services, etc., are absolutely guaranteed to be worth the money. "
The silver coin priest demonstrated excellent business ability. He downplayed the other options, but highly recommended the options he wanted to sell. At the same time, he also showed a small box of Gods Coins to the other party.
I saw the newly minted coins of the gods were neatly stacked, and the holy emblems of the gods blended on them, emitting an extremely charming luster, which attracted all the eyes around and could not be moved away for a while.
This is the efficiency of the Woking Church's actions. Many things do not have to wait until the church bank is established before they can be carried out. They can continue under the current name.
When the time is right, the business can be transferred from the Woking Church to the church bank.
Only the person being persuaded by the Silver Coin Priest was not moved at all, and directly changed to telepathy and said: "I don't need the Magic Gold Card. If you introduce me to the Road Builder, I will agree to settle with the Gods Coins."
"Mr. Road Builder?!" The Silver Coin Priest was stunned involuntarily after hearing the conditions, and an embarrassment appeared uncontrollably on his face.
This condition was a bit too much to ask. He had only seen the other party from afar in the Golden Tower before, and they had no contact since then. How could he be qualified to make an introduction?
"You don't have to answer me immediately. You can tell my request to your superior. I can wait." Priest Shar seemed to be able to see through what Priest Silver Coin was thinking.
In front of them, there are no secrets in the world.
"Okay, I'll try it." After a little hesitation, the silver coin priest decided to report the matter for handling.
Whether to see it or not should be decided by the Road Builder, not him.
The silver coin priest had a high EQ and did not leave the Shar priestess hanging there. After asking her a few questions and making sure that she had no other goods to sell, he took her directly into the Golden Tower and sent her to the VIP room to wait for a reply, thus avoiding a series of unnecessary troubles.
The auction price of over one million directly ignited the atmosphere of the entire trading venue, and everyone was discussing this topic.
The whereabouts of the legendary leather armor [Hymn of the Night] is difficult to trace, but the seller has always been in the open. Many people who dream of getting rich overnight can't help but come up to see if there is any chance.
After watching the Shar Priestess follow the Silver Coin Priest into the Golden Tower, he could only wisely stop and continue to wander around the periphery.
As the headquarters of the Church of Waukeen, the Golden Tower is a forbidden area for all thieves. Trying to do anything tricky there is tantamount to seeking death.
This is not something that the Church of Woking claims, but something that countless thieves have proven at the cost of their lives.
The final destination of the legendary leather armor [Hymn of the Night] is a secret to ordinary people, but not to Gavin who sits directly at the top of the Golden Tower.
The legendary leather armor did not leave the city of Astarte, nor did it even leave the trade square. It fell into one of the many shops nearby. It was a very conspicuous shop. If we put aside the Golden Tower, it should be one of the most magnificent buildings.
"Who owns that building?" Gavin asked.
"Rex Bomur." The young Archbishop Barasta only took a glance and answered with full knowledge, "He is the star merchant of Amn. His family controls the docks of the entire kingdom, and all the porters and stevedores must obey their orders.
In addition, they also maintain more than a dozen large and small caravans, engaged in trade in various industries, including both sea and land transportation. As long as there is a profitable industry, they will intervene. "
"So they are not members of our church?" Gavin demanded.
“Although the Bomul family is not a core member of the church, they have always maintained close relations and exchanges with the church, and they donate a considerable amount of money to the church every year.”
Barasta answered truthfully, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with them? Do we need to investigate them?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Don't act rashly." Gavin shook his head and refused. "Our most important thing now is to reorganize ourselves. Only when we become strong can we face any provocation from the enemy!"
"Your Excellency's teaching is correct." The young Archbishop Shangjin said sincerely.
The building that Gavin and his team discussed was just as luxurious inside as the Golden Tower.
However, the furnishings lacked the brightness of the Golden Tower and instead had a tinge of darkness. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, all the guests inside sat in the shadows, and even if they were in the same room, it was difficult to see each other's faces clearly.
"Demon Eater, are you crazy? You actually spent one million to buy a piece of leather armor with unknown effects. Even if it is certified by the Church of Waukeen, it is not worth the price!"
The person who spoke was a woman. Even though she was angry, her voice was still as clear and pleasant as a silver bell, and her tone was like a song.
The person she was scolding was the bidder who had just spent a million dollars to buy the [Praise of the Night].
The person being scolded had particularly dense shadows around him. The legendary leather armor was floating in front of him. Countless thread-like shadows stretched out from the other party, pierced into it, and were slowly rotating, turning a deaf ear to the other party's angry scolding.
Instead, the male figure sitting not far from him slowly said, “For us, this leather armor may not be worth a million, but for the demon-eater, it is worth more than a million.
He is a user of Shadow Web, and perhaps he can glimpse more secrets of Shadow Web from it. This will not only make him stronger, but also be beneficial to our entire Shadow Thieves Guild.
Many of our Shadow Thieves' unique abilities were gained through his research.
As long as I can research a shadow spell with this leather armor, it will be worth it."
"That's the problem." The woman with a voice as loud as a silver bell did not calm down, but retorted angrily, "What's the difference between your current behavior and open theft? The Lady of the Night is in charge of secrets... Do you think you can hide it from her eyes and ears?
This wallet was auctioned by her priestess. Aren't you afraid that it contains the poison of the goddess of night? Swallowing it will bring you eternal damnation."
"Ms. Silver Song, your worry is totally unnecessary. The Lady of the Night is as good at conspiracy as the Prince of Lies. How could she set such an amateur trap? Let her own priestess be auctioned openly?
Wouldn't it be more covert to find an unrelated agent?
And how could she be sure that she would fall into the hands of Lord Demon Eater?" The man who was defending himself asked a series of questions in response to the other party's doubts.
"The other party is fishing with a straight hook, and they are targeting you smart-aleck guys." Yin Ge responded coldly.
"Okay, stop arguing. I didn't call you here to have a fight." The man in the middle waved his hand and said, "Since the photo has been taken, we should try to maximize the benefits.
Lady Night created the Shadow Net not for fun, but to compete with the Goddess of Magic and to replace the Shadow Net.
If she forbade others to use the Shadow Web, then no one would be able to touch it, let alone study and use it.
Why do you have to speculate on Lady Night's intentions in a malicious way, Yin Ge? Isn't it possible that Lady Night asked her priests to release it on their own initiative, just to let Shadow Web users like Demon Eater study Shadow Web?"
The other party is obviously taking sides and is on the side of the bidder.
Then again, without his tacit approval, the auction would not have been successful.
As if in response to his question, flowers made of shadows bloomed from the legendary leather armor, like a hymn to the night.
At the same time, the shadows around the body of the demon-eating Shadow Net user began to change into shadow flowers, spinning rapidly around him, forming a shield, armor, or even flying out.
The leading man couldn't help but show a surprised expression and asked: "It succeeded so quickly?"
The user of the Shadow Demon Net waved his hand, and the entire set of legendary leather armor turned into a shadow flower and sank directly into his body. At this moment, the shadows around his body dissipated completely, revealing a gloomy and pale face.
With a rare smile on his face, he said, “What we just saw was just the result of tuning into it. There are more mysteries hidden inside.
The Nameless One was right. This was what the Lady of Night did on purpose. She needed someone to help her spread the influence of the Shadow Net and needed more people to use it.
It's possible that the shadow abilities I researched for the Shadow Thief won her appreciation and recognition, which is a special reward for me.
That is an in-depth application of the Shadow Network, and since we have a large number of Shadow Thieves, our influence will naturally be greater."
All of these people do not use their real names, but code names of shadow thieves. Among them, the Nameless One is the supreme ruler of this organization and the uncrowned king, which is a metaphor for the untraceability of anonymous capital and the power behind the scenes.
Yin Ge on the side couldn't help but speak again: "Don't presume to guess the thoughts of the gods, especially the Goddess of Night. Her temperament has always been capricious. Your guess may be completely wrong. It's just that you feel good about yourself..."
"That's the end of the matter." The Nameless One waved his hand again to stop him. "Anyway, the research on the Devourer has been beneficial to us so far. We should give it our full support until we really find any problems."
I’m afraid it will be too late by then.
Yin Ge forced himself to hold back these words, because the Nameless One had already set the tone for the matter, and if he continued to argue, he would only make himself uncomfortable.
Compared to the others, he had joined for too short a time and was an absolute outsider. Although the other two men in puffs did not speak, this in itself was a way of expressing their stance.
Some things are deeply rooted in the shadow thieves and cannot be changed by one person alone.
One of them is the enthusiasm for concealing the secrecy of the organization's operations, which makes the organizational system very complicated. Of course, there are huge guarantees in terms of security. Even if a branch organization is uprooted, it will not cause any impact on the Shadow Thieves.
Even at such a high-level gathering as theirs, people were secretive about their appearance and real names. Apart from the nameless one, the few hooded ones did not know each other completely.
However, it also wastes a huge amount of manpower and material resources, resulting in low operating efficiency and a lot of repetitive work. Many times, each of them fights on their own and cannot exert their own huge power. But the other shadow councilors seem to be very intoxicated in this wonderful atmosphere of dominating everything.
This is related to the history that the Shadow Thieves were almost completely destroyed due to internal betrayal, so they are also very strict in preventing themselves from doing so.
But the problem is that the rulers of Waterdeep, whom they regard as their biggest rivals, have no ability to reach out to Amn at all.
Worse still, some people don’t even know they existed, and perhaps think they have long since vanished into the dust of history.
This sentence must never be said. It is the Achilles' heel of the entire Shadow Thief. If you are not careful, the old guys in front of you will fall into a rage.
The nameless man turned his gaze to the right, and the figure who sat straight as a sword even in the shadows said, "Knight, have you made any progress on the assassination of the three masked councillors?"
The voice of the Poncho, codenamed Knight, was as sonorous and powerful as that of the Knight: "Reporting to Master Shadow, there has been no progress so far. The opponent's methods are too clean and neat.
There were no witnesses and no trace of the soul left.
The only thing that can be confirmed now is that the assassin is a spellcaster who is proficient in necromancy, and is most likely a lich..." (End of this chapter)
