As the ethereal and penetrating sound of the silver bell gradually faded, the previously somewhat noisy venue also quieted down accordingly.
At this moment, the gazes of everyone present were simultaneously cast towards the center of the auction stage, with curiosity or burning enthusiasm in their eyes.
On the other side, the upright figure, surrounded by several beautiful etiquette staff, slowly became clear, revealing a tall, thin, middle-aged man with curly facial hair.
He was dressed in a neatly fitted black tailcoat, with a black bow tie at the collar of his white shirt, exuding an elegant and dignified demeanor.
“Esteemed guests, good afternoon, and welcome to the Viennas City Sanders’ Trading Conference’s Starry Sky Auction House. I am your auctioneer, Baron Poli.
At this moment, on behalf of His Excellency the Lord of Viennas City, His
Excellency the Master of the Viennas City Sanders’ Trading Conference, His Excellency the Master of the Viennas City Mercenary Guild, and His Excellency the Master of the Viennas City Businessmen Guild, I would like to extend our most distinguished respects and greetings to all of our esteemed guests!”
With a magnetic and sonorous voice, the middle-aged auctioneer named Poli elegantly bowed and performed a standard gentleman’s salute before announcing, “Now, I declare that the Viennas City Joint Auction officially begins!”
Upon hearing this, the nobles and businessmen in the audience applauded thunderously, expressing their respect for the organizers.
“Lord, this is my uncle, who is a very close friend of my father’s and takes good care of me usually.”
Kelsey, who had left for a while, somehow returned to Leo Ray’s side.
She quietly introduced, “At the same time, he is also the Chief Appraiser and Chief Auctioneer of the Viennas City Sanders’ Trading Conference, as well as a side member of the Sanders Family. He is one of our own.”
Leo Ray slightly nodded, smelling the delicate fragrance emanating from her body and noticing that Kelsey had changed out of her neat red outfit and was now wearing a simple, girlish red princess dress.
Her every move exuded a completely different style, along with a sense of refined elegance.
“By the way, my Lord, my uncle is also a Tier 3, 5-star Starlight Magician. He was in charge of designing and constructing the Starry Sky Auction House.”
Smiling happily, Baron Poli continued, “The starting price for this Tier 1 Body
Strengthening Pill is 2000 Gold Dragons, with a minimum bid increment of
100 Gold Dragons. Please begin bidding.”
As Kelsey was speaking, a faint golden hexagram-shaped magic circle slowly lit up on the spacious auction platform opposite.
Immediately after, an almost dazzling light flashed and an enlarged identical projection of the auction platform appeared in mid-air above the platform, much like a holographic projection.
The clear images of the middle-aged gentleman Poli and the etiquette ladies on the holographic projection bowed to the audience in unison.
“Wow, I didn’t expect to see such a technologically advanced scene in this world.”
Gazing at the high-definition magic projection before him, Leo Ray couldn’t help but reveal a slightly surprised expression.
Murmuring to himself, he said, “No wonder the auction house was built so large. With this, even those in the back row can clearly see the details of the auction items.”
While Leo Ray pondered, another etiquette staff member stepped out from an independent passage on the auction platform, holding a tray covered with a golden silk cloth in her hand.
“That should be the first auction item, right? I wonder what it is.”
Seeing this, Leo Ray, who was seated in the front row, slightly nodded, revealing a curious expression.
Indeed, just as Leo Ray had anticipated, Baron Poli, the auctioneer, gracefully received the tray, gently lifted the silk cloth, and a small brocade box appeared before everyone.
“Ladies and gentlemen, this is called a Body Strengthening Pill, a Tier 1 Magic Medicine. Its effect is to increase the strength of an ordinary person at Tier 1 by two to three stars.
This magic medicine must be a childhood memory for most of you, right? Do you still remember the unknown feeling of excitement and anticipation when you first took it?”
With an elegant smile, Baron Poli opened the brocade box to display the contents while continuing his introduction, “Although this Tier 1 magic medicine has lost its potency for the vast majority of guests present, it is perfect as a birthday gift for your children, or as a present for friends’ and relatives’ children during their full moon celebration. Not only can it showcase your high-end taste, but it also serves as a symbol of status and identity. It is arguably one of the most sought-after types of Tier 1 magic medicines.
By the way, this auction only has this one reserve. Please do not hesitate to spend your Gold Dragons.”
Smiling happily, Baron Poli continued, “The starting price for this Tier 1 Body
Strengthening Pill is 2000 Gold Dragons, with a minimum bid increment of
100 Gold Dragons. Please begin bidding.”
After listening to Baron Poli’s introduction, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly but didn’t show any strong purchasing intent.
Currently, the lowest-ranked subordinates in his territory, even the weakest farmers, had already reached a Tier 1 Nine-Star level of strength..
