She flipped through the pages for a while, then sighed inwardly. Just as the Book of Greed said, the pearlfish wasn't exactly rare. The only reason it was at auction was because it belonged to the sea creatures.
Pearlfish are gentle and timid. They usually glow with a pearly sheen, but when they encounter danger, their sheen dims.
Gu Xi looked through the information on pearl fish and found that there were several pearl fish being auctioned, with the most recent auction in two days, starting at 5 gold coins.
After confirming the time, Gu Xi exited the special space and prepared to attend the auction two days later.
It's impossible for her not to have any worries, so these past two days she could only turn her anxiety into motivation and intensify her training.
After several days of adaptation and training, the octopus butler has become more and more skilled. Now, in addition to doing housework, it has also mastered simple cooking skills. For this, it even specially took Gu Xi to make a small apron for it.
Following Fish Power and Fish Thug, Gu Xi has now acquired Fish Nanny. Although not yet fully competent, she can already handle most of the housework. Therefore, Gu Xi has freed up a lot of time for training. After several days of mental strength training, her progress bar from B to A level has increased from 0 to 4800, growing at a rate of 600-700 experience points per day. At the current rate, she won't be far from reaching the 20,000 experience points required to upgrade to A level.
According to the Maritime Calendar, day 52, there is a pearl fish auction today, held in auction room number 56, starting at 2 PM.
After finishing her daily training, Gu Xi prepared to pack up and head to the auction house. Suddenly, a cool breeze blew by, and she felt a little chilly. She checked the temperature, which was 18 degrees Celsius.
She turned and went back to her workspace, opening her notebook. Since the heatwave, she had developed the habit of recording temperatures, and she checked the temperatures for the past seven days. Seven days ago, the temperature was 28°C, and today it was 18°C—a drop of 10°C in just a few days. Although the drop was relatively gradual, it was still clear that the temperature was steadily decreasing. A 10°C drop in seven days didn't prove anything. Furthermore, she didn't have enough evidence to hastily conclude that this natural disaster was related to temperature.
Gu Xi closed the laptop, put the gold coins he had prepared into his backpack, took out the invitation, and then began to use his mental power to enter the special space.
She was already quite adept at entering and exiting special spaces, but this was her first time truly venturing into the world of the deep-sea race.
The special space serves as a transit point for the auction. Here, not only are invitations verified, but also the amount of gold coins in the buyer's possession. If a buyer has less than 100 gold coins, they are not even eligible to enter.
She had already registered for today's auction, which starts at 2 p.m., and buyers can enter one hour in advance.
When Gu Xi entered the special space, it was already within the time frame for entering the auction hall.
The special space was different now than before. The small cubes that were originally at the edge of the space had moved out of their positions and were now gathered together about two meters in front of the light screen. They floated in the air, arranged neatly in a circle, rising and falling in rhythm with Gu Xi's breathing. It was as if this formation of stacked cubes had been prepared specifically for her.
As Gu Xi approached, the small cube shimmered with wave-like patterns, sparkling in the space.
When Gu Xi reached the small cubes, they seemed to consciously surround her. Then, a mental voice echoed from the void. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
