The end of the month of vitality in the year 1009 of the Holy Hui Calendar.
In the underground world of Icewind City, the dazzling auction that countless people are looking forward to will begin tonight.
In the Shining Tavern, nobles wearing gorgeous clothes and masks entered one by one.
In the small hotel, Levi came out of the state of practicing breathing techniques.
"Harris." Levi shouted.
Outside the window, a snow-white bird of prey swooped down from the skyline into Levi's room in a perfect arc.
This speed is comparable to that of the peregrine falcon in the previous life.
Even Levi, who now possesses intermediate speed, is far behind.
After all, this is a dive speed comparable to that of a high-speed train.
A distance of 100 meters only takes less than one second.
Levi had seen speed-type knights before, and the pale shadow was obviously one of them.
The speed at which he exploded almost formed a phantom black line.
That speed is still not as fast as Harris's diving speed.
This is the evolutionary advantage of birds that has perfectly combined aerodynamics and gravity over millions of years, which is difficult to match with the flesh and blood of knights.
Harris ate the meat obediently on Levi's shoulder. Now Levi's wild heart could begin to communicate with Harris.
Every day during the day, he would let Harris eat and then go to hover over Icewind City for a walk.
From the information Harris brought back, Levi knew that there were a lot of people from Icewind City today, and many of them came to attend the auction.
Master-level Mithril Armor has not appeared in Icewind City for a long time.
"It starts tonight."
"After this period of dormancy, I have almost completed my training."
"The next step is to wait for the prey to take the bait."
Levi——
…
Siren Breathing Technique: Level 5 (1/30000), special effects: intermediate speed, shrinking and changing shape.
Giant Rhino Breathing Method: Level 5 (limit, can be broken, current limit-breaking progress is 2/3), special effect: intermediate strength.
…
Now, Levi has successfully mastered the Blue Falcon Breathing Technique to the fifth level, and then integrated it into the Siren Breathing Technique. After the Siren species devoured the Blue Falcon species, it successfully broke the limit.
This means that Levi can continue to gain experience in the Siren Breathing Technique. After reaching the sixth level of the Siren Breathing Technique, he will possess advanced speed.
During this period of time, the Giant Rhino Breathing Method also successfully reached the fifth level. As he expected, the fifth level was the limit of the Giant Rhino Breathing Method.
He gave the Savage Bull Breathing Technique and the Giant Bear Breathing Technique to the Giant Rhino. Now the progress bar for the Giant Rhino's Breathing Technique to break the limit is only 1 point away.
Power-type breathing methods are relatively common, and it won’t be long before the Giant Rhino Breathing Method will break the limit.
Now, in Levi's heart, the seeds of life lurking above include the giant rhinoceros species, the siren species, the human-faced spider species, and the black snake species that is above them.
Other life seeds came and went in a hurry, but only the proud black snake looked down on it all.
When night fell and he was fully prepared, Levi brought all the poison, spell materials, hidden weapons, bows and arrows, and equipment. He touched the Frost Giant Armor under the Dragon Armor, and then he went to the Shining Tavern with confidence. If nothing unexpected happened, the big knight should have arrived in Icewind City.
…
The Shining Tavern, the auction venue, which used to have sparse seats, is now packed.
The armor that a craftsman spent half a year to create is the dream treasure of many knights and nobles.
After all, in the eyes of knights, a set of high-quality armor is more sexy than the most beautiful woman in the world and more delicious than the rarest delicacy.
This is what Sharktooth Knight thought. As a great knight, he is powerful, but not defensive.
So even he needs such armor.
In this way, when he fights with strong people of the same level, his weaknesses will become fewer and fewer.
Earl Yinshan thought so too. In the VIP seat of the Shining Tavern, a man wearing a silver mask and with beautiful silver hair was sitting there leisurely, waiting for the auction to begin.
Although he was wearing a mask, his iconic silver hair and unparalleled temperament still betrayed him.
"Earl Silver Mountain is here in person? Oh my God?"
"Oh my god, it's really him. Such an important figure has come in person. It seems that Earl Silver Mountain is determined to get him."
The crowd was whispering, they knew that when Earl Silver Mountain arrived, ordinary nobles and knights would lose the qualifications to auction the Leviathan Armor.
"Ah, it is worth living like the Golden Hammer Master."
"That's right. The forged works are good enough to make even the high and mighty Earl and the Great Knight personally come to work. Maybe this is what a craftsman is."
The crowd sighed, and the auction began.
Levi did not wear a golden mask, but a white wolf mask, hiding inconspicuously among the ordinary seats.
His intermediate vibration perception was fully activated, and his eyes casually swept across the entire scene.
There were two characters that caught Levi's attention, one of whom was naturally the famous Knight of Silver Mountain, one of the Seven Knights of the North and the ruler of this city.
As for the other character, he wore an iron helmet and heavy armor, like an ancient giant beast. He sat in a corner, silently looking at the stands. On his back was a broadsword with serrated edges like shark teeth.
This iconic and unique weapon directly exposed his identity.
"That unknown knight, the Duke of Black Mountain's man!"
Levi hid his anger and calmed down.
Now he has successfully led the enemy to Icewind City.
The next question is how to deal with him. The enemy is in the open, while Levi is in the dark. He must make good use of this advantage and deal with the opponent more safely.
Even with the Frost Giant Armor, Levi was already very confident.
But it won't go wrong if you play it safe.
Soon, the auction began. The auctioneer didn't waste any time and started auctioning the items one by one.
Levi also wanted to see if there was anything he needed at this auction.
Then, the third lot gave Levi a surprise.
"Red Pig Breathing Technique, the ancestral blood breathing technique of the Red Pig family that was destroyed a hundred years ago. The starting price is 20 gold coins, and each bid must not be less than 1 gold coin."
the beautiful auctioneer shouted.
Before Levi could bid, he heard Earl Yinshan in the VIP seat bidding.
"30 gold coins." Earl Silver Mountain's voice was pleasant, with a magnetic bubbling sound.
Levi frowned. This was a basic level of blood breathing method. Why did Earl Yinshan want this?
Could it be that he is a collector of breathing techniques?
"40 gold coins." Levi naturally wanted to take it.
This Red Pig Breathing Method is obviously a power-type breathing method. I only lack a power-type breathing method to break the limit of the Giant Rhino Breathing Method, so I naturally cannot miss it.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes were on Levi.
"Who is this ungrateful kid? How dare he compete with Earl Yinshan for the breathing method?"
"He must be a foreigner. I don't know if this is Earl Silver Mountain."
Levi wears a mask and is fearless.
In the end, he and Earl Yinshan competed after some bidding.
The Red Pig Breathing Technique, which was not very valuable, was auctioned for 100 gold coins and was finally won by Levi.
Earl Yinshan is indeed a great nobleman, even though he was insulted by Levi.
He still sat there calmly, and did not use his status as a count to scare Levi.
Although Earl Silver Mountain is rich, the breathing technique is just for his collection, and he has to save the money for the auction of the Leviathan Armor.
"Very good, there is no problem breaking the limit of the Giant Rhino Breathing Technique."
Levi was in a good mood, having achieved good results right from the start.
But his happiness did not last long as he was overwhelmed by an even bigger surprise.
The auctioneer came up with a small tray.
She lifted the black cloth covering the tray.
In the gloomy auction venue, a dim blue light came from the tray like a blue flame.
Levi looked closely and saw that it was a dark blue walnut-sized stone with countless tiny holes.
The surface of the stone is full of holes, and wisps of faint blue mist emerge from the holes. From a distance, it looks like rising blue flames.
"This is a gem from the Kingdom of Eternal Night in the Far North: the Heart of Frost."
"This gem is extremely beautiful. Holding it in your hand, it feels extremely cool. In the hot summer, it feels like holding a piece of ice, which is very comfortable."
"Also, it seems that this gem can help people stay awake and calm, and help them practice breathing techniques, but the effect is relatively weak."
"Anyway, the starting price is 30 gold coins. If you buy it, you won't suffer any loss or be cheated. It's also a great gift for your lover."
Levi was excited, this was not the Heart of Frost!
This stone with holes all over its surface and emitting a faint blue mist is clearly the core of the undead recorded in the exorcism notes!
This is the most crucial spell material for the Seal of Hell!
With this, Levi can perform the Seal of Hell.
It must be taken. Even if the Jade Emperor comes, he can't stop Levi from taking the Undead Core.
He was already prepared to have a falling out with Earl Yinshan.
Yet, silence.
Deathly silence.
No one took pictures at all.
"What the hell is this? This spooky gem? Who dares to take it?"
"Ominous, I sense an ominous aura from the stone!"
"Wait... I think I've seen this thing before. Damn it, this is something inside the snow demon's body! How can you sell something like this at your auction?"
Suddenly, the knights below gasped.
Although most people here have never seen the Snow Demon, it is very famous in the Kingdom of Eternal Night.
Although so far, there has been no trace of the snow demon in the Emerald Kingdom.
But everyone's fear of what they believe to be "evil spirits" has penetrated deep into their bones.
Therefore, after hearing that it belonged to the Snow Demon, no one bid for it anymore.
Levi, who didn't believe in evil, called out a low price alone.
Levi was in a good mood. He felt that he had made the right decision to come to the auction.
A book on breathing techniques and a core of the undead were things he urgently needed.
It was worth the trip.
Next, Levi waited quietly for the Leviathan Armor he had consigned to be carried onto the stand as the finale.
"Everyone, I'm sure you've all been waiting for a long time."
"Next, the heavyweight works of this auction are about to appear!"
"The Leviathan Armor was forged by the genius craftsman, Golden Hammer Master Terra, who emerged last year. It took him half a year and millions of hammers to forge it. It was an invincible armor that represents the strongest forging technology of this era!"
That piece of armor shining with bits of mithril was so dazzling there!
Everyone held their breath!
"The starting price for this armor is 200 gold coins! Each bid increase must not be less than 10 gold coins! Now, the auction begins!"
In an instant, the atmosphere of the auction was completely ignited.
“210!”
“230!”
“240!”
…
"400!" Shark-Tooth Knight shouted loudly, looking at the excited little nobles.
This time he came out, he only brought a thousand gold coins, and now he had very few left to spend, so he looked at the Silver Mountain Knight.
"500." Silver Mountain Knight said calmly and elegantly.
Sharktooth Knight gave up.
Anyway, I can bring the Master of the Golden Warhammer back to Black Mountain City next, and then ask the master to forge one for me.
"550." Someone in the ordinary seat called out the price.
Levi thought 500 was the ceiling, but he didn't expect there were quite a few rich people at the scene.
Finally, Yinshan and the rich man in the ordinary seat started bidding, and won the Leviathan Armor at a sky-high price of 1,000 gold.
"So rich." Levi was happy to see this scene.
After deducting the cost and the Shining Tavern's handling fee from this auction, I made a net profit of 600 gold coins, which was a great profit.
After the auction was over, he went backstage to get the Red Pig Breathing Technique and the Core of the Undead that he had been longing for, and then left quickly.
By the third day, the aftermath of the auction had passed.
He then changed his appearance and became the Master of Golden Hammer Terra.
He rushed to the Shining Tavern and got his share.
On the way back to the hotel, he sensed through vibration that someone was following him, and it was naturally the big knight.
Then he smiled, changed his route and headed out of the city.
"Come on big guy, I have a big gift for you."
