Chapter 125: Bidding for the Seven-Colored Stone

The Frost Murloc and the two Thunder Nagas were bidded by Gilbert.

As the Chairman of the Storm Empire’s Chamber of Commerce, Belek actually had many doubts before he struck the hammer.

As a direct member of the Pine family, he naturally understood the recent situation in the Storm Empire.

From Mage Aaron, he knew that Gilbert and Nixon, the two great nobles of the Storm Empire, had the intention of rebelling.

Logically speaking, he felt that Harold should at least compete with Gilbert and not give up on the auction as a show of weakness.

However, the scheming of an emperor lay in the mind game. Even he, who was experienced and knowledgeable, could not guess it at all, nor did he dare to think too much.

He continued to look at the next item.

More than an hour later, this was the treasure that Mas had been thinking about day and night.

Another item was brought up.

“Everyone, this auction item is a high-grade alchemy material!”

“For alchemists, this alchemy material is very rare!” The auctioneer smiled and said.

Then, she removed the red cloth from the handmaiden’s hand.

A beautiful Seven-Colored Stone appeared in front of everyone.

……

Mas had already seen this Seven-Colored Stone when he checked the records of previous auction items.

To be honest, Mas had thought about privately discussing with the alchemist who was auctioning the Seven-Colored Stone. He wanted to buy this excellent quality Seven-Colored Stone in private.

However, after some consideration, he decided to forget it.

If the owner of the Seven-Colored Stone told others that he looked for her privately, it would bring about unnecessary troubles.

In any case, not many people would be bidding for this Seven-Colored Stone. After all, it was a high-grade alchemy item. Not many people in the Storm Empire dared to use such a high-grade alchemy item for refinement. Even if they spent a high price to auction it, Mas felt that it would not be a loss.

With four more Seven-Colored Stones and four top-grade steel stones with four attributes, he could refine four magic beads again and raise the Seven Luminaries Battle Armor to the Epic stage.

However, at this point, the host announced a half an hour break.

This gave Mas a chance. He asked for a private lounge that was extremely soundproof.

Then, he took out the Creator’s Alchemy Platform from his personal alchemy space and took out the corpses of the two Hurricane Wolves he had previously obtained. Mas did not have much emotion for being able to refine two new Legendary alchemical creatures. After all, he already had an Epic alchemical creature, so he was not too interested in the new Legendary alchemical creatures.

He took out two Level 6 All-purpose Steel Frames and used the remaining high-grade Space-splitting Eagle Feather and Vajra Wolf Claws.

There were also two Level 6 wind-type magic crystals. Mas placed them all on the Creator’s Alchemy Platform.

A golden light flashed and the five alchemy materials were driven by an invisible force.

The corpse of the giant Hurricane Wolf was straightened by an invisible force.

The All-purpose Steel Frame pierced into the corpse of the huge Hurricane Wolf and completely propped it up.

The feathers of the high-grade Space-splitting Eagle turned into powder and fused into the corpse of the giant Hurricane Wolf.

The Diamond Wolf’s claws began to melt into the shape of mud as they slowly covered the corpse of the giant Hurricane Wolf.

Lastly, it was a Level 6 wind-type magic crystal that was embedded in the forehead of the huge hurricane wolf.

A golden light flashed on the alchemy platform.

The system prompt sounded.

[Congratulations, you have successfully refined a Legendary Alchemical Creature, Storm Wolf]

[Successfully refined a Legendary Alchemical Creature. 100 alchemy EXP obtained.]

Then, an attributes panel appeared in front of Mas.

[Storm Wolf]

[Level: Legendary]

[Ability: Legendary Wind-type Enchantment, Supersonic Running, Sharp Steel Claws, High-grade Power Source]

Looking at the attributes panel of the Storm Wolf, Mas was quite satisfied.

Then, Mas handed the two Legendary alchemical creatures and the control core he casually refined to Belek and asked him to help him sell them to the auction.

As for why he did not go personally, firstly, it would save him trouble if he was recognized. Secondly, he trusted Belek to do things.

After all, the so-called control core could not control the alchemical creatures he refined normally.

Time passed in an instant. In the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed.

The auctioneer finally announced that the auction would continue.

Mas was determined to obtain this Seven-Colored Stone. He was willing to pay any price.

As the demi-human auctioneer introduced the Seven-Colored Stone, everyone also knew that if it were not an alchemist, it would be useless to buy this bright stone. In the end, the demi-human auctioneer finalized the starting price. “Starting price is 5 million! Each increase must not be lower than 100,000!”

“5.5 million!” This time, the bid came from a war alchemist of the Moulan Empire.

“You want to get hold of such a treasure with only 5.5 million? Dream on! 6 million!” This time, the bid was from a Level 6 alchemist from the Beast Empire.

Looking at the rising prices below the stage, Mas finally made up his mind. “12 million!”

After the alchemists below the stage heard the shocking price, they all took a deep breath. It was true that this Seven-Colored Stone was precious, but it was far from being worth this price. After all, if the refinement did not succeed after they had bought it, they would suffer a huge loss.

However, Mas was different. Having the Creator’s Alchemy Platform, what he needed the most was raw materials. No matter how high the price was, he had to obtain them!

“Oh! A gentleman from the VIP room actually offered a high price of 12 million. Anyone else wants to continue bidding?!”

“12 million going once!”

“12 million going twice!”

“12 million going thrice…”

Just as everyone, including Mas, thought that the Seven-Colored Stone would fall into his hands, a voice came from below the stage.

“19 million!” The person who spoke was Gilbert, who had fought with Harold for the auction previously. Mas was not a fool, and naturally could tell that Gilbert was deliberately raising the price. However, the arrow was already on the bow, and he had no choice but to shoot. Mas could only grit his teeth and increase the price to take it.

“20 million!”

“Oh, oh, oh, oh! The gentleman from the VIP room has raised the price to 20 million gold coins. Anyone else willing to offer a higher price?”

“20 million going once!”

“20 million going twice!”

“20 million three times! Deal. Congratulations to the gentleman from the VIP room for obtaining this Seven-Colored Stone!”
