This guest who received the VIP invitation is quite remarkable. It's said that he's been dominating the auctions lately, and has even had his sea monsters showcase their prowess in the arena.
Although it only appeared once, it attacked an SS-level sea monster and even won against one.
Although her own strength is average, the two SS-level sea beasts she wields are formidable weapons. Such power is something that other deep-sea tribes wouldn't dare to easily provoke.
The Sea Ghost receptionist's mind raced through Gu Xi's spending data, especially after learning that she had just swept through an ordinary auction that morning, which made her even happier.
It was extremely attentive and obsequious. "Welcome to the most prestigious and unparalleled auction house, my esteemed guest..."
Gu Xi, who was already used to it, still didn't want to hear it praising her, so she interrupted it directly.
Do you have any essential items for an auction?
Buy things!
The Sea Ghost receptionist's eyes practically lit up at the thought. It loved being interrupted like that; the more interruptions you get, the more things you'll buy.
"Yes! Yes! An absolutely distinguished guest, what would you like to buy?"
Although it was asking a question, it very astutely began introducing the items in the catalog.
Sea Ghost Receptionist: "There aren't many rules for high-end auctions, and there's nothing particularly noteworthy, but all our distinguished guests love buying these kinds of things."
The Sea Ghost receptionist pointed to a peculiar mask. "The mask is made of Star Crystal. It records the wearer's spiritual power, forming a unique mask just for them. It's inexpensive, only 100 gold coins."
Gu Xi waited for it to continue, but after a few breaths, she found that it had already finished speaking.
"What about the others?" Gu Xi asked.
Sea Ghost Receptionist: "? You're done talking."
"That's it?!" Gu Xi exclaimed in disbelief. She had thought this mask had something special about it, but after hearing what it said, it seemed to be just a custom-made one! Apart from looking good, it didn't seem to have any other use.
Ais suddenly interjected, "Purr~ Star Crystal can isolate mental energy. If this mask is made of Star Crystal, it should have the same effect."
"Is that so?" Gu Xi asked the Sea Ghost receptionist after hearing Ai Si's words.
The Sea Ghost receptionist turned the coil, not quite understanding it either; it had never heard of it before. All it knew was that guests would buy it, but nothing else.
Seeing that it looked like it was about to break, Gu Xi didn't make things difficult for it.
She initially thought it was just for decoration, but if it could isolate mental energy, then it would be a good thing. Wearing it, others wouldn't be able to tell what she was thinking, and it could also conceal her face without making her seem eccentric—a win-win situation.
"Give me two." Gu Xishuang handed over the Hisense cards via express delivery.
After the Sea Ghost receptionist swiped 200 gold coins, he gave her two masks.
Gu Xi took the mask, handed one to Ai Si, and then examined it carefully.
The mask's overall outline is an elegant oval shape. The flattened part features a slightly raised crescent shape, like a new moon in the night, exuding a mysterious aura.
This mask has no eyes, only intricate patterns around its edges. It's more like a work of art than a mask.
After Gu Xi finished looking at it, she leaned closer to Ai Si and whispered, "This mask is really strange. It's fine for people like us with this kind of appearance to wear, but how would those strange-looking deep-sea creatures wear it?"
Ais slung the mask over her head. "Plop! We'll see when we go inside!"
He didn't say it, but he was actually quite curious too. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
