Chapter 22, Auction Storm
"Let's go, next team."
Seeing Meng Bai's happy expression, Zhai Shuo couldn't help but roll his eyes at him and stretched helplessly.
Things like Na Rings are actually quite rare. According to the information revealed by Meng Bai in the past few days, only the Jiang family in this oasis can stably produce Na Rings. At the same time, their industry: the Refining City, It is also a giant on the oasis.
Whether it is weapons, armor, rings, or various materials and equipment, they all fall within their manufacturing scope. Therefore, the Jiang family has enough foundation to occupy the position of a first-class family, second only to the three major families.
But getting back to the subject, although it is good to accept the precepts, it cannot be used to accommodate the precepts. Therefore, for Zhai Shuo, this kind of thing is nothing more than a burden.
Moreover, his own Na Ring is an intermediate Na Ring, how could he value such a thing?
"Hehehehe..." Hearing the speechlessness in Zhai Shuo's voice, Meng Baile smiled happily, and then without hesitation, he took out the map and glanced twice, then led Zhai Shuo towards the next target.
The map is the direction of action they searched from the Meng Yun Na Ring. Each fighting spirit has its own search area, which provides them with a lot of convenience...
…
In the following days, under the leadership of Meng Bai, Zhai Shuo used thunderous means to instantly kill five Meng family teams. At this point, all the Meng family secret guards in the north of Huansha City had been wiped out by them...
The leaders of these teams are either two-star or three-star Dou Ling. If they were to compete head-on, Zhai Shuo would not be able to escape every time. He would more or less have to delay the death-defying counterattacks of the powerful Dou Ling. layer of skin.
It's a pity that these unlucky secret guards of the Meng family were killed by Zhai Shuo falling from the sky and beheading them every time when they were at their most lax...
So after a few days, even Zhai Shuo's clothes were intact. This result made his assistant sigh again.
Already superior in strength but unprepared, the Meng family may be bleeding heavily this time...
But what does this have to do with his Meng Bai?
With a bag full of Najie in his arms, Meng Bai just wanted to say: Die! The more deaths the better!
Of course, not only did Meng Bai receive a rich harvest, but Zhai Shuo also received many precious things, including elixirs that he had never studied before, rare medicinal materials that were regarded as weeds, fifth-level monster essences and blood, and magic cores, as well as There are all kinds of strange supernatural beings...
Anything that Zhai Shuo thought might be of some benefit to him was included in his taboo.
By now, half a month has passed since Zhai Shuo walked out of Lin's house...
Zhai Shuo killed with great joy. As the "victim", the Meng family naturally noticed a strange atmosphere...
At this time, in the luxurious hall of the Meng family, Meng Kuo, who was wearing a black shirt and standing with his hands behind his back, was facing away from three masked men who were half kneeling on the ground. His immature green face was so gloomy. Somewhat scary.
"Master Meng, we have searched the entire southern part of Huansha City. All passers-by below the five-star fighting master level have been checked by us..."
"The same goes for the west side of the city..."
"The east part of the city is also..."
The three masked men bowed their heads in turn and said, no matter how much they criticize the moody young master of the Meng family behind their backs, they still have to restrain their tempers at this time, because this is not a vegetable market, but the core of the Meng family!
"You haven't returned from the north of the city?" Meng Kuo shook his fingers and said in a deep voice.
"My subordinates report that there has been no news from our brothers in the north of the city for several days. It seems...as if the world has disappeared..." One of the masked men paused and replied.
"A bunch of trash!"
Meng Kuo shouted angrily, and just as he was about to raise his hand to clap, he realized that there was no table next to him.
"Damn it, Zhai Shuo, has he already entered the spirit battle?"
Meng Kuo gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart.
He was no match for Zhai Shuo half a month ago. He thought he had broken through to Dou Ling now and was ahead of him, but he didn't expect that boy to be able to defeat even a strong Dou Ling expert?
"Master, what should we do now?"
Seeing this, the three of them looked at each other and said hesitantly.
Although the Meng family's senior management did not object to such a high-profile matter, their subordinates had a lot of complaints about using so many people just to find an unidentified mysterious genius...
"Withdraw it. I have other things to do in the future."
Meng Kuo, who had been pondering for a long time, gradually calmed down and said coldly.
Hearing this, the three of them were stunned, and one of them said with great reluctance:
"Master, then our brothers in the north of the city didn't die in vain..."
"Hmph! A bunch of fighting spirit losers, even a great fighting master can't deal with them. They deserve to die!" Meng Kuo waved his sleeves and turned around, showing an expression of hatred for steel.
After being scolded by him, the masked man bowed his head again and remained silent.
"Since you can't deal with him, then I will take action myself!" Meng Kuo continued with his eyes shining brightly.
If the head of the Meng family hadn't only allowed him to use Douling secret guards, he wouldn't have done this at all.
"Master..."
When the three of them saw this, they all laughed bitterly inwardly. Many of their people had died, so what's the use of a star fighting spirit like you going up there?
"As long as you get that thing for me..."
Ignoring the three people's persuasion, Meng Kuo flexed one hand, and the purple thunder in his palm beat, gradually forming a tiny thunder wing. Looking at it carefully, the purple thunder in his palm looked like a miniature version of a phoenix!
…
East of Huansha City.
On the top of the pavilion of an inn somewhere, two figures in black were crawling on the top. It was Zhai Shuo and his two men who came here a few days ago.
But at this time, their deep eyes were more or less filled with a hint of depression.
Because it has been three days since they arrived in the east of Huansha City, but they have not seen even a single Meng family secret guard...
"Master Xiao, I guess they have evacuated early, what should we do?" Meng Bai glanced at the surrounding streets and asked.
Zhai Shuo pursed his lips, turned over and lay down, resting his head on his hands:
"Let's go, what can we do?"
The ten days of reverse siege gradually made him a little exhausted mentally and physically. It was satisfying to kill people and seize treasures, but if the same thing was repeated for a long time, it would become somewhat boring.
Only at the beginning will there be some pleasure in seeing new things...
Moreover, the wealth of these fighting spirits was not that rich. Every time Zhai Shuo only took a small and rare part, most of which were cheaper than Meng Bai...
"Where do you want to go, Master Xiao?" Meng Bai asked curiously. If you follow such a ruthless person, as long as you don't provoke some powerful people with terrifying strength, you won't have to worry about food and drink.
"Where? What do you recommend?" Zhai Shuo narrowed his eyes slightly and said lazily.
He originally thought that breaking through the Great Fighter Master would be enough for him to make a living in the outside world, but now it seems that it seems to be a little less interesting...
Although the level of fighting spirit in the early stage is as good as that of a chicken or a dog in his hands, when facing some powerful fighting spirits or fighting kings in the later stage, he can only feel helpless.
Leaving the oasis too early may lead to bad luck...
"Um…"
Meng Bai held his chin and said hesitantly: "Master Xiao, do you want to go to the east of the oasis to have a look?"
"Is there anything special there?" Zhai Shuo yawned and asked. He originally planned to go all the way north, but Meng Bai aroused his interest.
Based on the latter's familiarity with the oasis, there might be some strange things happening there.
"After arriving in the east of Huansha City, I heard a piece of news mentioned by passers-by. The Oasis Auction Conference, which is held only once every five years, has been advanced..."
"And the venue is just east of the oasis." Meng Bai explained.
"Well, keep talking." Zhai Shuo's eyelids trembled slightly and he said calmly.
In the final analysis, he is not particularly interested in places like auctions. His strength is too weak. Even if he gets some rare items in such a place, he is not confident that he can hold on to them...
Zhai Shuo is not the only one who likes to rob money and belongings.
Of course Meng Bai knew that this young man must have never heard of such a prosperous trading era, so he organized some words before continuing to explain:
"This auction conference is fundamentally different from the auction house in Huansha City. It is not organized by the Qian family, but by the Alchemist Guild..."
"Oh?" Hearing a key word, Zhai Shuo suddenly opened his eyes and replied with some surprise:
"Oasis... also has an Alchemist Guild?"
He had been in the northern continent for more than ten years and had never heard of any guild organization. He only knew that most of the alchemists in Huansha City had their own dependent forces. Unexpectedly, he was so ignorant that he was so ignorant...
"That's right." Meng Bai nodded, a solemn look flashed in his eyes:
"This Alchemist Guild seems to have some irresolvable grudges with our City Lord's Mansion. More than ten years ago, all the alchemists in their guild were kicked out of Huansha City, and even the old site of the guild was destroyed. A ruin…”
"This matter is too long ago, and it is also the only taboo declared by the city lord's palace. Over time, no one will mention this huge force anymore. It is normal for Young Master Xiao not to know... After all, when the guild was disbanded, many alchemists were taken under the command of major forces. , after so much development, Huansha City does not lack high-level alchemists."
"They didn't leave the oasis?" Zhai Shuo digested for a moment and frowned.
Isn't this level of grudges a time bomb buried in the oasis?
Meng Bai shook his head:
"Back then, the senior leaders of their guild, along with a group of loyal alchemist subordinates, went to a small city to the east of the oasis to reorganize their forces. This city was also renamed by them: Sand Refining City..."
"What a sand refining city..." Zhai Shuo smiled. The ambition of such a name is self-evident.
Not paying attention to Zhai Shuo's interruption, Meng Bai continued to explain patiently:
"Master Xiao himself is a fifth-grade alchemist, so he naturally knows the value of this status. This once low-class town benefited from the influx of those alchemists, and it rose rapidly. If we talk about the background, I am afraid that today's They can already be rated as the second largest city in the oasis..."
…
"Um…"
After listening to his long speech, Zhai Shuo only responded lightly, thinking it was just to gain some knowledge for himself.
After all, the grudges between these two top forces are not something he can get involved in now.
Knowing that Zhai Shuo was not very interested in this, Meng Baishixiang continued:
"As for this auction conference, it should be regarded as a derivative of the transaction between their alchemists."
"Although the Alchemist Guild was kicked out of Huansha City, they still treat everyone equally on certain matters, and that is their trading house."
Meng Bai paused:
"Young Master Xiao should know better than me. When an alchemist is short of certain medicinal materials, as long as he has plenty of money, he will usually choose to exchange them with other alchemists to save time and effort. The same is true for this trading house. During the conference, almost everyone can To describe it, there are huge crowds of people.”
"As for some extremely precious things, most people would not dare to put them in front of so many people, so the auction conference came into being."
…
"I see."
Zhai Shuo nodded and murmured, Meng Bai's meaning was already quite obvious.
This auction conference is essentially a form of treasure holders entrusting the guild to sell them.
For this reason, the things in their hands are basically extremely rare things.
Otherwise, wouldn't such a large trading house be able to put on the table all kinds of rotten fish and shrimps?
"How is it? Mr. Xiao, do you have any ideas?" Meng Bai rubbed his hands and asked expectantly.
Trading conferences of this level are extremely rare in the entire northern continent. For a person of his level, the things inside can basically be regarded as high-quality products and extraordinary...
Even if you don't get those things, the blessings you experience are enough to make you feel that the trip is worthwhile.
"Well…"
On the side, Zhai Shuo twitched the corner of his mouth and did not respond immediately. The hesitation in his eyes seemed to be weighing something.
With his little strength, if some powerful people notice something about the treasures on his body, then something really bad will happen...
The intermediate Najie does not have the function of defending against detection!
Seeing his hesitation, Meng Bai suddenly looked anxious, gritted his teeth, suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and whispered:
"Master Xiao, I also heard that at this auction, there will be flying fighting skills..."
! ! !
Upon hearing this, Zhai Shuo's lying body jumped up, grabbed Meng Bai's collar, and his eyes ejaculated.
"Is this true?!"
