Chapter 47 The Attraction of Elemental Fruits
"Fifteen thousand gold coins!"

"Eighteen thousand gold coins!"

"I'll give you 20,000 gold coins!"

……

In just a short moment, the price of the elemental fruit rose from the base price of 5,000 gold coins to 20,000, and the momentum showed no sign of slowing down. Many hidden wealthy people took out their fortunes.

Some people value the elemental fruits that can give mortals magical talents, while more people value the "improvement of talents". For some people, this is the truly priceless effect.

A man in plain clothes instructed the people around him, "Notify the finance department and ask them to transfer all the gold coins in the union to my personal name."

"Yes, boss."

His subordinates immediately walked out of the auction house in a hurry, apparently to raise money.

Situations like this were happening simultaneously in many places in the auction house.

Although many people came prepared, they all came for the last divine relic. Many people did not expect to encounter elemental fruits, which are extremely rare items even in the head office, in a mere branch of Starlight Commercial Bank, so they could only ask their servants to raise money temporarily.

……

"Haha, Ferro, you are still so cunning."

Sitting in the VIP area of ​​the auction venue, Joan, the mayor of Roselowe, laughed out loud.

Drayton beside him nodded in agreement: "Another trick, can you come up with something new?"

"There's no other way. This is the only way to sell the finale at a high enough price."

Ferro knew that his two old friends had easily seen through his little cleverness, so he admitted it generously.

Before the auction of the divine relics, throwing out an attractive bait like the elemental fruit will surely make many people add more budget, so that the price of the divine relics will be one or two cents higher in the final auction.

This is not the first time Ferro has used this method.

Perhaps some people could guess that this was a premeditated plan of Starlight Trading Company, but they could do nothing about it, because the temptation of the bait this time was absolutely top-notch, and few people would remain indifferent when seeing the elemental fruit that could change their destiny.

If you become a magician chosen from thousands, your identity and status will rise. The emergence of elemental fruits undoubtedly gives hope to those wealthy people who have no magical talent.

Of course, not everyone is crazy about elemental fruits.

For example, there was a fat nobleman who was taking a nap while enjoying the smooth and soft touch of a beautiful woman and watching the show.

To Dark, this elemental fruit had no appeal at all. After hearing the reserve price of the elemental fruit, the little thoughts that the two beauties had originally had were completely extinguished. They knew that even if they were sold, they would not be worth even a fraction of the elemental fruit. No matter how rich Dark was, he would not spend tens of thousands of gold coins to please two prostitutes.

And Dark himself really had no interest in elemental fruits, and he was too lazy to become a magician.

Because magicians not only have to practice magic hard, but also have to learn magic spells and even fight monsters. It's simply endless fun. That kind of life is simply not a life for human beings. How can it be as enjoyable as the life of aristocrats today?

So he was happy to watch a group of people fighting for it to the death.

"Twenty-five thousand!"

"Twenty-six thousand gold coins!"

"Twenty-seven thousand five hundred gold coins!"

……

Luo Qiu looked at the girl with amusement as she was staring at the treasure box containing the elemental fruit on the stage.

"Hey, girl, your saliva is falling."

"Ah?" Xia turned pale and wiped the corner of her mouth subconsciously.

The result was, of course, nothing. Luo Qiu was just teasing her.

When Xia saw Luo Qiu smiling and Leticia trying hard to hold back her laughter, she naturally understood everything.

He opened his mouth viciously, revealing two cute little fangs and claws: "Do you want to be beaten?"

"Um...you can try it." Luo Qiu responded with a smile.

"Really? Third-rate adventurer, let me see if you are a little too proud or I can't hold the knife anymore!" "Xia, you may... not be able to beat him." Leticia suddenly hesitantly said.

"Ha? Are you kidding? How could I be defeated by a third-rate adventurer?" Xia stared at Luo Qiu with disbelief on his face.

"He..." Leticia seemed to have thought of something and closed her mouth. She was secretly glad in her heart that she almost let the cat out of the bag again.

"???"

"By the way, don't you want that?" Luo Qiu pointed at the elemental fruit.

Xia, who was full of pride just now, drooped down in an instant, like an eggplant hit by frost, her beautiful eyes filled with tears: "If I had known, I should have saved more money before." There was deep reluctance in her words.

There was no way, as he had just spent all his money. So even though it was an elemental fruit that was extremely attractive to magicians, Xia could only watch with tears in his eyes as its price soared and then was bought by someone else.

"Hey, hey..." Luo Qiu shook his head slightly after understanding Xia's inner thoughts.

Relying on this kind of thing is not the right way. Elemental fruits can only be used as auxiliary tools at best. It may not be a bad thing that Xia can't get it.

"Thirty-three thousand gold coins!"

"Thirty-four thousand gold coins!"

"Forty thousand gold coins!"

The sudden outburst of a certain big shot raised the price of the elemental fruit to a sky-high price of 40,000 gold coins, causing many nobles who had ideas about it to frown.

To be honest, in the past, the finale items of the auction could only be sold for 10,000 gold coins at most. The quality of this auction can be regarded as the highest since the establishment of Rose Lowe's Starlight Trading Company.

Even the well-informed Fuli's beard curled up with laughter when he heard someone offer 40,000 gold coins.

"This gentleman bids forty thousand gold coins! Is there anyone who can offer a higher price? This is an elemental fruit that is difficult for the elves to replicate! Whether you can change your destiny is in your own hands!"

“This old man!”

Hearing Fu Li's excitement, the person who had just made a bid cursed in his heart that if this continued, the price would go up further.

"Forty thousand...one thousand gold coins!"

Sure enough, just as Fulide finished his words, someone else followed up with a price quote. Although he seemed a little hesitant in his words, he did give a quote. However, seeing that he was sweating profusely, it seemed that he was not at ease.

"Boss, did you get rich this time?"

Einbert blinked once, then he shouted.

"Fuck, is this fruit so valuable?"

"Hey, you're too noisy, shut up." Yervin shouted.

"Xiaoye, how can I stay calm? Forty...forty thousand gold coins! Wow, how many magic arrows can I buy with this? I can also get a new set of armor! Oh, and I can also get a better bowstring for Arus (bow name)!"

"Snapped!"

Sally slapped Einbert hard on the back of the head.

"Are you awake from the dream?"

"Wake up, wake up..." Seeing the light in Sally's eyes, Einbert nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

"Doron, this should be enough."

"Almost." Alvis, who had been silent all this time, spoke for the first time.

Several members looked at him.

"Really? Little Weiss, isn't this enough?"

Alves nodded and said, "There are a few people, very rich."

"It seems to be true." Ambro Doron shook his head and smiled: "If I get it, I'm lucky. If I lose it, I'm doomed."
