Chapter 38 Auction.
Lu Xia watched the camel cart pass by, listening to the voices coming from all directions——
"What's going on? Is this another male from the Rafaeld family?"
"Look at the white hair, it should be. After all, except for the Rafaeld family, the empire is rich in white-haired orcs. The appearance of white hair in other families is accidental. What's more, they have a pair of beautiful golden eyes, which are most loved by the nobles. Every time they appear, they can be sold at a good price at the auction!"
"Isn't it? It's a pity. The Rafaeld family lacks gene fusions. I don't know if they have been abandoned by the Beast God!"
"Today's auction is going to be lively again. Let's go. Don't sell anything. Pack up your things and go to watch the excitement!"
...
Lu Xia looked at the crowd who had left their stalls and followed the camel cart to watch the excitement, and couldn't help but ask softly: "Is the Raffield family famous?"
Grace withdrew her eyes from the camel cart and nodded: "Famous for their beauty, the orcs of their family all have white hair and golden eyes, and they have inherited the feather gene, but the probability of activating this gene is very low, so there are very few orcs in the Raffield family who have gene fusion."
Sure enough, the backward and weak will be beaten.
Because the family is not strong enough, beauty becomes a disaster coveted by others.
After saying these words, Grace glanced at the little female obscurely. He was a little worried that the appearance of the Raffield family would make Lu Xia soft-hearted.
But after listening to his words, Lu Xia didn't ask any more questions, as if she was only interested in the Raffield family.
In fact, Lu Xia didn't plan to meddle in other people's business. The purpose of her coming here today was to get the raccoon gene fusion preparation, and she didn't want to cause trouble.
There was still half an hour left before the auction at Toya Auction House started, so Lu Xia followed Grace to the auction house.
Led by the waiter, they came to the private room.
The dark private room was filled with incense. As soon as they entered, they could see a huge floor-to-ceiling window facing the auction table. In order to facilitate viewing of the auction items, a separate visual light screen was set up next to it.
The waiter left after serving the fruit plate, pastries and tea.
Lu Xia took off the mask on her face, stood in front of the glass window, and looked at the crowd of spectators participating in the auction below.
Grace handed Lu Xia the auction house's list of items tonight: "This is the list for tonight."
Lu Xia took it, glanced at it, and found that the raccoon gene fusion potion she wanted was ranked quite high, at the fifth place.
The Raffield family orcs they had just met did not appear on the list, but at the bottom of the list, there was a line of small words - mysterious items.
Lu Xia felt that this was most likely it.
There are many items on the list, and they are varied. In addition to the gene fusion preparations that Lu Xia is looking forward to, there is also a fire spirit gene that makes Lu Xia very curious.
During this period, her understanding of gene fusion technology also made her know that fantasy species exist in this world.
For example, the black dragon gene in Grace. According to Lu Xia's understanding and analysis, the dragon gene in Grace belongs to the Western dragon clan.
If the genes are perfectly fused, you can even grow wings.
This makes Lu Xia look forward to what Grace will look like after the perfect fusion.
Thinking of this, Lu Xia couldn't help but look up at the man who was making tea for her.
Feeling Lu Xia's gaze, Grace looked up and said suspiciously: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I was just wondering, according to your situation, what it would look like after the perfect fusion of genes."
Hearing this suddenly, Grace's heart tightened: "Do you think that I will have this day?"
"Why not, your gene fusion rate has reached 65% now, it is no longer a so-called defective product. Since
the beast gene in your body has been activated, it is only a matter of time before it is perfectly integrated." When Lu Xia said this, her tone was very firm, as if she had never doubted this and always believed that Grace would have a perfect transformation.
Grace didn't know how to express her feelings at this moment.
All these changes were not what he expected, but Lu Xia's attitude towards him had never changed. Whether he was a defective product or a gene
fusion , Lu Xia was always the same to him.
"Lu Xia, thank you." He suddenly said this, which made Lu Xia a little confused. She stared at him for a while and suddenly smiled, "Why are you thanking me? I didn't do anything. You should thank yourself the most for having such a good opportunity. You didn't give up, so you have such an opportunity."
In addition to providing Grace with spiritual spring water, Lu Xia didn't think he had done anything else for Grace.
And this spiritual spring water was not provided for no reason, but also to test whether it was useful to Grace.
Grace was of great research value to her.
So she did not need Grace's thanks, because she had already got what she wanted.
As they were talking, the auction had already begun.
The previous items were not attractive to Lu Xia, she was just waiting for the gene fusion preparation to appear.
The gene fusion preparation ranked fifth did not make her wait for long, and was soon sent to the auction table by the staff.
When the host lifted the red cloth, he announced loudly: "I guess I don't need to say much about this item, the raccoon gene fusion preparation, the starting price is 15 million, please start bidding!"
However, as the host's voice fell, no one bid below.
The price of 15 million for a gene fusion preparation is not high, after all, this kind of gene preparation also starts at 10 million outside.
But for a gene fusion preparation with only a 25% probability, at least 2 or 2 pieces are needed to take effect.
And at the Toya auction today, there is only this one, and the probability of 25% is too low. No one is willing to pay such a sum
of money to bet on an uncertain future.
But this is a good opportunity for Lu Xia. She only wants to do research and doesn't care about the probability.
So in the dead silence of the venue, Lu Xia pressed the bid zero.
After hearing this, the host on the stage, who was in an awkward state, immediately said loudly: "The guest in the VIP room on the second floor offered 15.5 million. Is there anyone else bidding... Okay, 15.5 million for the first time, 15.5 million for the second time, and 15.5 million for the third time. Congratulations to the guest in the VIP room on the second floor for the successful bid!"
Seeing that the real person had bid for this gene fusion preparation, many people looked up at the VIP room on the second floor curiously, wanting to see
who this rich man was.
Lu Xia knew very well that she would probably be regarded as a fool with a lot of money.
But no one knew that she wanted this gene fusion preparation for research.
She didn't bother to explain.
Now that the gene fusion preparation is in hand, the only thing left for her to look forward to is the Fire Spirit Gene. I hope that no one will compete with her for it by then.
