There was no hope. One million and seventy thousand gold coins were all the funds he had. Even if he had one thousand more, he couldn't afford it.
Seeing the whirlpool crystal so close to him on the stage passing by him, the man in black robe almost wanted to snatch it directly.
But in the end, he suppressed this thought that tempted him like a devil.
He knew very well that if he tried to rob him here, there would be no other result than catching himself.
The Gloria Auction House is guarded by ninth-level professionals all year round, working with the auction house's large element pool and high-level binding circle. Don't talk about him, even if it were replaced by a real ninth-level relative, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to please him.
Looking at the direction of the top box with sinister eyes, the masked man in black robe did not act rashly, but continued to wait silently for the continuation of the auction.
Without being able to capture the crystal, the auction was meaningless to him.
But leaving on his own at this time would seem a bit conspicuous. He didn't lack this time, so he might as well wait for the auction to end and leave with other guests.
He never thought about intercepting and seizing the treasure halfway. Due to the existence of the private teleportation array, it was simply impossible to rob and kill a VIP of Gloria Auction House.
No matter what, that crystal egg must not be lost.
He had made up his mind. After returning, he would immediately arrange for someone to investigate the identity of the person in the top box today and find a way to get the crystal egg back.
By any means necessary——
.….….
At this moment, in the top box, as the auction came to an end, the whirlpool crystal egg that the people in black robes longed for was personally carried by the person in charge before and delivered to Anvis.
After paying the full amount of gold coins, Anvis played with the crystal.
Without the special magic light on the auction stage, the crystal now looks far less dazzling than when it was displayed on the stage, but it is still emitting beautiful azure fluorescence.
However, after delivering the lot, the person in charge did not leave immediately, but made another request.
"This distinguished guest, our chief appraiser has a private request. I wonder if you are willing to tell us in private the true purpose of this crystal.
As a thank you, our bank is willing to contribute 30% of the final price of this lot to you with our own funds! "
Upon hearing the request from the person in charge, the two players in the room held their breath slightly, waiting for Anvis's response.
Thirty percent of the bidding price is a full 321,300 gold coins!
The total number of gold coins they have now is not even as much as the smallest fraction of this money.
"..."
Anvis just smiled and looked at the person in charge, silent.
"...I understand, I'm very sorry."
Nodding with some regret, the person in charge bowed again and slowly exited the room.
After the person in charge left, Anvis stared at the clear whirlpool structure in the crystal, and with a little bit of mental power, he inserted it into the crystal.
Soon, a unique feedback came back from the mental power.
Although it seems to be frozen, when the spiritual tentacles really penetrate the whirlpool, it feels like being in a real deep sea whirlpool, being sucked into the depths of the whirlpool without any resistance.
Feeling the wonderful feeling of falling and weightlessness, Anvis shook his head slightly, pulled out his spiritual tentacles, and regained consciousness.
As if because of this influence, his hand suddenly shook, and the azure clear crystal suddenly slipped from his hand and hit the ground heavily!
"!?"
Seeing this sudden scene, the two players and Fiona took a deep breath, and their heartbeats almost stopped for half a beat.
Although the auctioneers had specifically emphasized its sturdiness, this did not mean that they could watch indifferently as crystals worth millions of gold coins smashed to the ground.
"Don't be nervous, it's just a routine test."
Seeing the horrified expressions on everyone's faces, Anvis smiled in a wicked way. At the same time, the crystal floated up on its own and returned to his hand.
"By the way, you should take a look too."
Afterwards, Anvis placed the crystal on the antique coffee table and allowed the three curious people to check it out on their own.
He is not worried that the two players will take it for themselves, because the ownership of the crystal is still his, and the players cannot bind it if they get it.
Unbound items will all be dropped when you die.
As Avis expected, the properties of this crystal were displayed on the game board between the two.
【Strange Object Crystal】
Quality: Legend
Description: A mysterious crystal from the sky. The vortex structure in it can slightly increase the meditation speed, and it seems to hide a deeper secret.
Effect: Carry it with you during meditation to increase the speed of experience gain.
Special status: lack of energy
Seeing the last item, Anvis nodded with satisfaction. The player panel is still so easy to use. Especially when using others, it feels even more exciting.
He had only heard of the reputation of this thing, but he didn't know how to hatch it. Now, he has ideas for testing.
Under the reluctant gazes of the two players, Anvis put it away again, and then turned to Fiona.
"Okay, Fei, let's go."
"Brother, shall we not continue watching?"
The girl looked at the auction that was still going on with some confusion.
"There's nothing left to see."
Shaking his head, Avis gestured to Fiona. The latter quickly stood up with the kitten in his arms and followed him obediently.
At the same time, looking at the two players who 'consciously' followed, Anvis waved his hand slightly to stop their actions.
"The place we are going to next is quite special and we cannot take you with us. You two can stay here until the auction is over. If you want to take away the fruits and refreshments here, please feel free to do so.
But be careful not to try to touch other furnishings here! Otherwise, you might run into some trouble. "
After giving the instructions, Anvis took Fiona to a compartment on the side of the box.
That is the teleportation room. Through the fixed-point teleportation array there, you can directly teleport back to the academy teleportation point according to the spatial coordinates in Pamir's identity card.
Before leaving, Avis gave the last dragonborn a crystal ball to use to contact him in the future.
The elf's strength is currently too low. Anvis once again gave him a task, so that the elf can follow the caravan under his name to gain experience and improve his level and skill proficiency.
Of course, this is not mandatory. The Last Dragonborn can leave at any time if he has his own arrangements.
As the two brothers and sisters disappeared in the light of teleportation, the two players immediately wiped away all the demonized fruits on the table.
If it hadn't been for Anvis's advice, it's hard to say how many things would have been left in this box.
In the past six months, the aborigines have had a preliminary idea of the existence of players.
How to tell whether a thief has entered a house or a stranger has entered?
It's very simple, if there are things left in the house, it means there is a thief.
