In an instant, all the noble gentlemen present became as quiet as quails, and no one dared to speak.
The only few who dared to speak out had already lost their heads, so Xier was very considerate and understanding of them. After all, they had no brains left.
"Speaking of which, I feel like what I'm doing now is somewhat inconsistent with the core values of socialism... Forget it, what does Seele's doing have to do with me, Reborite? It would be nice to let go of myself a little and experience the script of the cool male protagonist."
Thinking of this, Lei Bo...sorry, Xier felt much more relaxed.
"Alright, alright, let's get back to the point. Everyone, start bidding now for ten lives. The highest bidder wins. So, the auction begins."
There was silence for a while, and all the nobles looked at each other, but no one made the first bid.
"Four hundred gold coins!"
While everyone was still hesitating, someone had already made the first bid.
"Four hundred gold coins for ten lives. Have you chosen the person you wish to take with you, bidder?"
The noble lord who was bidding was stunned for a moment, but the people around him were not stupid. They all came forward to curry favor with the bidder and expressed their willingness to help him share the gold coins.
"Okay, then we have a deal. It's just the ten of us."
"Four hundred and fifty!"
Before those noble lords could rejoice, another noble suddenly stood up.
"Oh, oh! Four hundred and fifty coins already, and there's no higher one yet. Four hundred and fifty coins at a time!"
"Who the hell are you? I'm Viscount Varlan's younger brother. If you dare to bid higher than me, I'll kill you when I get out!"
"snort."
The noble lord who offered 450 gold coins ignored the shouting of his younger brother. After all, everyone was wearing a mask and no one knew each other. Only a brainless little noble like him would do such a stupid thing.
"Five hundred! We'll give five hundred!"
"Let's unite. After all, no one wants to stay in this hellhole any longer."
"Eight hundred!"
"Hmph, ten people only managed to come up with eight hundred gold coins. Get out of here! I'll give you one thousand gold coins!"
"Everyone, I am the younger brother of Count Lanke. Please give me some face..."
"You said you were Count Lanke's brother, and you are. I said I was your father!"
“You…you! You!”
At this time, these glamorous noble gentlemen all raised their arms and threw their shoulders back, wanting to engage in a free-fighting competition with fists and flesh.
How could they still look like the human beings they did at the beginning?
"One thousand eight hundred gold coins twice!"
Xier shouted deliberately at this time.
After hearing this, everyone started to raise the price again, and the price had reached two thousand gold coins.
"Sister Bronya, how's the observation going?"
Selene kept calculating something above the starlight in front of him.
"I've roughly figured it out, but are you sure your method is feasible, Miss?"
"No, they can lie about a lot of things to survive. But what we need now is to drain their gold and keep an eye on them. After all, these are excellent hostages. If Red Dragon Castle really sends someone, it will be very troublesome."
The noble lords who were still arguing at this time might not know until their death that Xier had never intended to let any of them leave here alive from the beginning.
At this time, outside the auction, a group of rebels were constantly reinforcing the entire auction house, collecting the treasures here, and clearing out the guards outside.
At this time, Ling Minnie was exploring with a small group. They were all familiar with the leader of the group, the Barbarian Blood Vanguard named Warri.
"Be careful! There are many people ahead!"
Wally was experienced and soon noticed that around the corner, one rebel after another was being ruthlessly killed.
From the sound of fighting, Wally could tell that the other side had at least a dozen guards.
Moreover, they are all strong in combat and are most likely great knights.
"Two of you go inform Big Sister Xier that the situation here is beyond our ability to resolve.
Also, go to another road to stop the brothers who want to go there. The enemy is very strong and we can't deal with it. The best thing to do now is to wait for reinforcements."
Wally immediately gave orders, and the people following Wally quickly retreated to carry out Wally's orders.
At this moment in the auction, the noble gentlemen were fighting with each other. Of course, there was also a smart guy who directly stuffed a large bag of gold coins into Xier in order to get a chance to leave here early.
Xier ignored everything that happened here. She just quietly watched the monkey show of the noble gentlemen.
However, you will get tired of watching monkey shows too much.
"In this case, everyone only needs to pay 900 gold coins again to leave smoothly.
Oh, by the way, it's 900 gold coins per person. This time, you can only buy your own life, so for those who didn't understand, please pay attention and be careful of those who are not friendly at heart."
"snort!"
At this time, a noble lord threw a large bag of gold coins in front of Xier.
"Nine hundred gold coins, not a cent less. Can I leave now?"
Xier looked at the proud nobleman in front of her. This man had remained calm throughout the whole process and did not rush to buy at Xier's auction price or to rush to buy with others.
"Well, I, Xier, keep my word. Since you have already paid the gold coins, you can leave now."
The noble lord left here under the gaze of everyone.
