"Have you heard? This iron ore may be the last batch. In winter, the Royal Court will go to war with the Galloping Horse Plains!"
"That's a pity. The quality of Ye Qicheng's potions and magic scrolls is so good now!"
"I don't think we can start a fight. Those barbarians don't dare to fight against the orcs."
Next night, in the lobby on the first floor of Daddy Camel’s Tavern, the orcs were discussing the current situation. The Hindukel Basin is adjacent to the Galloping Horse Plains. The valley states sandwiched between the Human Empire and the Orc Plateau, during peacetime, are It was a transit place for exchanges and business between the two places, but during wartime it was a place of conflict between the two armies.
Lant and several barbarians followed a camel man up the stairs from the corner of the hall, which attracted the attention of several beasts: "Those are the people from the barbarian caravan, right? How come they were invited to drink upstairs?" "
"You don't know? There is a galloping horse plains special event in the auction hall at the back tonight. People from all the families are coming to participate. It is said that the last few auction items are rare treasures in the world."
"How many treasures can there be? A magic pattern sword, a magic pattern armor, or a magic pattern plate?"
The chaotic sounds in the hall were blocked as Lant and his party went up to the second floor. There was also a small bar on the second floor, but the light here was dimmer. There was a whole wall made of squares behind the bar. There is a bottle of potion wine in each grid, which looks quite spectacular.
The second floor is a relatively high-end venue. The public space is not very large. There are a few tables and sofas arranged, but there is no attendance. The guests are all in small private rooms.
Rand and his party were led into one of the rooms. After entering, they saw gorgeous wallpaper, crystal lamps on the roof, and landscape oil paintings on the walls. In the middle of the room, there was a large 3-meter-square table filled with fruits and drinks. , and there is a circle of long beds around the room.
"Dear guests, this is a feature of our orc area. This kind of bed can not only allow the upright orcs to sit or lie down, but also allow the noble beast gods to lie down comfortably," the messenger introduced thoughtfully, and The barbarian captain was invited to lie on his side in the top position.
It was a huge bed of 5 meters long and 3 meters wide facing the door. Even to the barbarians, it looked more like a full bunk bed, but to the beast-shaped favored ones, this size was not an exaggeration.
Except for this largest one, the rest of the beds are more suitable for humans or orcs. Most of them are more than 2 meters long and 1 meter wide. There is a backrest at the head of the bed, which can be leaned on or completely sideways.
After everyone went to bed, the female half-orc waiters in the tavern entered the room. They picked up the wine bottles on the bedside table, played local orc musical instruments, and skillfully served the barbarian distinguished guests.
Soon, Rand and the captain were invited to the third floor to meet with Abadi's tyrant Shahman al-Dulaziz. Compared to the noise on the first floor and the luxury on the second floor, the decoration on the third floor actually feels like returning to nature.
Shahman was wearing a white robe and a simple decorated crown on his head. His face was very peaceful. In front of him was a table with three cups of steaming drinks: "Friends from Benma Plains" , this is our specialty drink here,”
After Lant and the captain sat down and took a sip, Shahman continued: "The most expensive guests, thank you for the products you brought. What kind of products do you have? I came here specifically to see Mr. Sha. Where’s the appraisal?”
"Honorable Shahman, I was entrusted by Yeqi City to bring you a few treasures that can only be produced there. I hope it can add some interest to your auction." Lant said very respectfully, holding on to his hand A crystal bead has been taken out from the space ring.
"This is amber secreted by high-level magic plants collected from the big forest. A nourishing magic pattern is engraved in it, and it is embedded in a mithril pendant. It has a very good nourishing effect after wearing it."
"Hmm..." Shahman was a little surprised, because simply speaking, the price of this pendant was much lower than a set of magic pattern armor. There was no need to show him the pendant alone, but he got the amber pendant. , the texture is really good. "The quality of this amber is really good, it does seem to come from a high-grade magic tree."
“It’s great that you recognize the quality of this pendant,” Lant then took out a 1-meter-square, 40-centimeter-high magic pattern box, “so this set of 16 pieces of jewelry of the same quality will definitely satisfy you.
The whole set includes hairpins, hairpins, tiaras, earrings, bracelets, wrist rings, anklets, 4 rings, necklaces, nose studs and the pendant on your hand. The hair accessories, headwear and hand accessories are embedded The magic patterns are all different. When worn in combination, there are at least 5 obvious nourishing, concentration or other bonus effects. If worn in full, it will definitely be as good as a good robe. "
When Lant brought 5 tons of amber to the high-grade beech, the original more than 900 amber on the beech tree, as well as the amber rough stones he had secreted before, all belonged to Lant. Amber itself can be decomposed by heating, and its good plasticity makes it easier to draw magic patterns inside, making it more cost-effective to make a complete jewelry set.
"Ah... Is this the latest specialty of Yeqi City?" Shahman opened the gem box and found that the box itself also had some magic patterns. Each piece of jewelry was accurately fixed in its exclusive position. "If you brought all If it’s an item like this, I really need to authenticate it myself.”
"That's great. I believe Yeqicheng's sophisticated craftsmanship will make your trip worthwhile."
…
Camel Daddy's Tavern is divided into two buildings, the front and back. The front is a 3-story tavern, and the back is a 5-story auction house. The garden area between the two buildings is not too small, with pavilions and pools. After passing through, you will see Arriving at the theater-sized auction house building.
"Our bank has a total of 7 auction halls, 1 hall specializes in gems and ores, 2 halls specialize in magic plants and potions, and the remaining four are special halls. The auction items you brought today are all in Hall 1, and we The biggest hall here.”
Lant and the captain were led upstairs by the waiter. The main seats in the hall were on the first floor, and the special box they entered could clearly see the entire auction hall.
On the far left side of the hall, there are several huge long beds, and now at least four beasts of various kinds are lying on these beds, including lions, bears, lynxes, and a not-so-big otter. He is the noble beast god's favorite.
Their appearance is like large beasts, but their essence is the same as humans, elves and ordinary beasts. As the most powerful beings in the tribe, the favored ones are as strong as beasts and can carry loads at any time. The God of Warcraft descended upon him.
The middle seat in the hall is wider, and it is full of pure-blooded orcs. The only bright spot among them is Hornier, whom Lant has seen before. This female knight sat directly in the front row in the middle, and the orcs around her He was also quite polite to her. On the far right side of the hall are mostly half-orcs, half-dwarves, and some other races.
"Do we still have human representatives here?" Lant pointed at Hornier and asked the waiter in a low voice.
