Chapter 313: Chapter 303: The Second Showstopper Item
Translator: 549690339
Tsk, nothing more than a young noble profligate who sneaked out to squander wildly.
This attention-seeking youth probably has already spent all the Gold Dragons on him, right?
Well, at least it looks like there will be one less immature competitor in the remaining auction.
“Now, esteemed guests, please look at the next auction item.”
Immediately, Baron Poli took another metal tray.
On the tray were two deep blue, round fruits.
Upon close inspection, the surface of these deep blue fruits was covered with faint golden patterns.
What was even more astonishing was that these golden patterns would occasionally flash on their own, looking like an infinitely vast, dreamy starry sky.
“These are a pair of freshly picked Star-patterned Fruits.”
With a slight smile, Baron Poli took a deep breath, carefully holding the silver plate on one hand.
He continued, “This miraculous fruit only ripens under a full moon and the most dazzling starlight, growing only on the peaks closest to the starry sky. If not picked on time, it will decay and fall off at dawn, making it extremely precious.”
Having said that, Baron Poli first handed the tray to a female etiquette staff member standing beside him.
Then, wearing a white glove, he gently lifted one of the Star-patterned Fruits and turned around to show it off.
“To not conceal the truth, Starry Sky Auction House’s design inspiration comes precisely from this rare fruit. At the same time, this peculiar fruit is also an essential ingredient for refining some Tier 3 Magic Medicines.”
“As for this point, I am sure that the Alchemists present here understand the preciousness of this item better than I do.”
The moment Baron Poli said this, several aristocrats wearing Alchemist Badges on their chests couldn’t help but swallow, nodding their heads and looking at the fruit with passionate eyes.
On the other hand, Leo Ray’s face was once again filled with a trace of delight as he looked at the peculiar fruit in Baron Poli’s hand.
This Star-patterned Fruit was one of the essential ingredients in the Tier 3 Magic Medicines Formula he possessed, the Star Pattern Magic Energy Pill!
“It my territory could produce these fruits in bulk, similar to Rose Gatheing Energy Pills, which can permanently increase one’s power, and further upgraded…
Then, as long as it successfully transforms into a Tier 4 Magic Pill, combined with the previously acquired Sacred Blessing Pill, my Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouses will naturally be able to challenge Tier 4 Powerhouses!”
Considering this, Leo Ray, overjoyed, set down the tall glass in his hand and continued pondering.
“Right now, thanks to Linda’s tireless efforts, I’ve already collected more than half of the materials needed to refine the Star Pattern Magic Energy Pills.
However, there’s been no news about the primary and most rare ingredient, the Star-patterned Fruit. If I can acquire this pair of Star-patterned Fruits and find the remaining common ingredients, success in producing the Star Pattern Magic Energy Pills would be within reach!”
At the same time that Leo Ray realized this happily, Baron Poli carefully put the Star-patterned Fruit in his hand back on the tray.
He then smiled and said, “The reserve price for this pair of Star-patterned
Fruits is 120,000 Gold Dragons, with a minimum increment of 5,000 Gold Dragons each time. Please start your bidding, everyone.”
Immediately, the old white-haired noble Alchemists eagerly pressed their silver bells.
After all, this Star-patterned Fruit was extremely rare in Coldflame Kingdom.
Whether it was to personally refine Magic Medicines or as a bartering item, it could be considered a hard currency among the Alchemists.
For an Alchemist, it was indeed a desirable treasure!
Seeing this scene, Leo Ray smiled faintly, then nodded towards Mason Banks who was on standby not far away.
Before, Leo Ray had personally competed for important items like Storage Rings and Magic Martial Arts.
So, to avoid attracting too much attention, it was Mason Banks’ turn now.
Mason understood and promptly pressed the silver bell on the table.
Dingling, dingling…
“Then the ownership of these two Star-patterned Fruits goes to the distinguished guest at table number 25!”
Thus, after an intense bell pressing competition,
Accompanied by Baron Poli’s magnetic voice, and with the support of Leo Ray’s strong financial power,
Mason Banks eventually acquired the two Star-patterned Fruits for a price of 250,000 Gold Dragons, successfully securing them for Leo Ray.
At this moment, the old Alchemists who failed to win the auction glared bitterly at Mason Banks, feeling a thousand emotions and being too angry to find a place to vent.
For ordinary auction items, they couldn’t compete with the young man at table number 8.
For Alchemy materials, they couldn’t compete with the equally old and burly man at table number 25.
Did these centuries-old nobles, who were usually high and mighty in their territories, come here to be in charge of ambiance?
“Esteemed guests, please prepare yourselves for the next auction item. The following item is one of the highlights of this auction.”
On the auction stage, Baron Poli stroked his curled mustache, revealing his signature mysterious smile again.
He took a long wooden tray from the attendant beside him and slowly lifted the golden silk covering it.
The next second, a Magic Wand that shimmered with intense colors appeared
before everyone’s eyes..
