Chapter 205: Spirit World Coordinates of the Dream Realm Creature Island
"Medusa's Petrification Eye?"
Hearing that the first auctioned item was so explosive, Jia Na's eyes widened slightly.
"Medusa is a powerful creature comparable to a First-Level Wizard, and their eyes are even comparable to Wizard-level Wizard Tools. For ordinary apprentices, just getting close to the 【Medusa's Petrification Eye】 will result in the Petrification Curse..."
Moreover, when Jia Na was looking through the auction catalog that day, she had not seen this item.
"Please don't panic, this auctioned item is a specially treated 【Medusa's Petrification Eye】. The energy intensity within it is only one-thousandth of that of a Wizard-level 【Medusa's Petrification Eye】, and it will not cause any impact on ordinary people—"
The host on the stage was personally served by Jarvis Roland. After listening to his general description of the auctioned item, Jia Na gradually came to her senses.
"So, it's just a replica."
The 【Medusa's Petrification Eye】 that Jarvis Roland was currently introducing, to put it plainly, was just a magic item injected with a weak 【Medusa】 Bloodline energy, not the genuine article that Jia Na had imagined.
However, for Bloodline Side apprentices with snake Bloodlines, this was indeed an excellent Bloodline evolution material.
"Starting bid, eight thousand jin sule, each bid increase must not be less than three hundred jin sule—"
"Hiss—oh my goodness, this is too expensive!"
Liji-Xiaosi, who was not clear about the specific use of the 【Medusa's Petrification Eye】, couldn't help but take a deep breath after hearing Jarvis Roland's bid.
"It's almost catching up to top-tier Wizard Tools for apprentices!"
"Well, after all, it's used to improve the Bloodline of Bloodline Side apprentices, so it will definitely be a bit more expensive than ordinary materials."
Unlike apprentices of the Element Side, the resource investment for apprentices of the Bloodline Side in the early stages can be said to be massive.
In addition to various potions that enhance physical fitness, a large number of tonic items of the same source Bloodline are also necessary investments for Bloodline Side apprentices to quickly improve their strength in the early stages.
As the Bloodline concentration increases, the appetite of Bloodline Side apprentices can no longer be confined to ordinary food like humans, so the food expenses in the later stages of being an apprentice are also a considerable expenditure—
Blood food, high-energy potions, Bloodline purification materials—... In addition to these, there are still other things that require a lot of money.
Especially top-tier Bloodline purification materials like 【Medusa's Petrification Eye】 for "snake Bloodlines", for Bloodline Side apprentices, they are simply things that are hard to come by.
"Too crazy—it's only been a moment, and the price has already soared to ten thousand jin sule—"
Looking at the rising price and Liji-Xiaosi's continuous low exclamations, Jia Na also felt startled.
The reason for Jia Na's shock, in addition to the price factor, was mainly her worry about her future "money prospects"—
"My current savings are only enough to buy some elemental essence—anything more is completely insufficient."
Currently, Jia Na's main expenses, besides the materials needed for the Summoning ritual and the occasional purchase of elemental essence, are no other large expenditures.
However, as the number of Jia Na's Contract Summoning creatures increases, the scale of resources she needs to invest is also becoming larger.
The plant essence purchased before, Jia Na has not yet used for the Thorn Flower Fairy.
It's not because she is reluctant, but as Jia Na's Plant Affinity talent improves, the Thorn Flower Fairy, which has received feedback, also shows signs of evolving.
Therefore, Jia Na is preparing to rely on the secondary soul feedback after obtaining the second Growth Law Fragment,
Coupled with the energy infusion of plant essence, to instantly catalyze the evolution of the Thorn Flower Fairy.
This can also effectively avoid the risk of nearly failing to evolve due to insufficient energy, like the Celestial Sparrow did last time, when comprehending the Purification Law Fragment.
"When I am promoted to a Three-level Wizard Apprentice again, with my current resources, I'm afraid I won't be able to support the resource needs of new Contract creatures—"
Once the next Contract creature is a magical beast that consumes extremely high Bloodline resources, such as a snake or a bird, Jia Na might have to find another part-time job.
"No wonder back then, Professor Margaret had to sign a short-term loyalty contract with the Rose Family—otherwise, with Professor Margaret's status as a common apprentice at that time, it would have been impossible to bear the huge investment in the early stage of 'Magic Food' production—."
"Twelve thousand jin sule once, twelve thousand jin sule twice, twelve thousand jin sule three times—congratulations to Guest No. 9 for successfully bidding!"
While Jia Na was distracted, the 【Medusa's Petrification Eye】 successfully ignited the entire hall at a price of twelve thousand jin sule.
"Twelve thousand jin sule—how long will it take me to earn this much—"
Liji-Xiaosi, who was greatly shocked by the rich people, after observing this auction, fully experienced the disparity between people.
In addition to Wizard Talent, the huge gap in wealth also made common apprentices like Liji-Xiaosi realize what a cognitive gap is.
"It's okay, you're just a Sound-type apprentice, you don't need to spend that much money."
"Yes, it's also lucky that I'm a Sound-type apprentice, otherwise, I'd probably be stuck at the Two-level apprentice stage for the rest of my life. Speaking of which, I heard that Summoning apprentices like you spend a lot more money in the later stages than Bloodline Side apprentices."
Jia Na, whose sore spot was once again poked by Liji-Xiaosi, could only shrug her shoulders helplessly.
"You're right, so I have to work even harder to make money—"
After the 【Medusa's Petrification Eye】 was sold, several other top-tier Bloodline materials with prices exceeding ten thousand subsequently appeared. One of them was 【Yaoging's Blood】, which could enhance the Plant Affinity talent.
However, this material was a Bloodline modification material, and for Jia Na, who currently did not want to change her own Bloodline, there was no strong desire to purchase it.
As the auction gradually came to an end, the subsequent auctioned items were clearly not as eye-catching as items like 【Medusa's Petrification Eye】 and 【Yaoging's Blood】.
"The last auctioned item is the Spirit World coordinates of the 【Dream Realm Creature Island】, with a starting bid of two hundred and fifty jin sule, and each bid increase cannot be less than fifty jin sule—"
"The last auctioned item?"
Hearing Jarvis Roland's words, Jia Na's brows couldn't help but furrow.
"Could it be that that necklace was temporarily removed from tonight's auction?"
However, Jia Na inferred from the abnormally active plant-type magic power within her body that the necklace containing the Growth Law Fragment
should still be nearby.
"Three hundred jin sule once, three hundred jin sule twice—""
