The Lord of Ashes

It must be said that the pink-tailed mermaid in front of him is the most exquisite female creature that Thain has seen so far.

Why not say she is the most beautiful, because Thain feels that Lina in his memory is the most beautiful.

The word beautiful actually contains many subjective factors.

Not only Lina, Thain felt that his cousins ​​Serena, Irene, and senior sister Fei'er were also first-rate beauties.

Of course, Thain's mentor Lu Lianman is also included.

Putting aside these subjective factors and judging only from an objective perspective, Thain has never seen a more exquisite member of the opposite sex than the pink-tailed mermaid in front of her.

She is like a beauty who stepped out of a painting. Apart from her pink tail and long wavy hair, the most impressive thing is her charming eyes.

A transparent water tank five meters long and three meters wide is the temporary home of this mermaid.

Perhaps because she wasn't used to being watched by so many people, this pink-tailed mermaid kept slapping the water in the tank with her tail while being flustered and anxious.

The sound of "gurgling" water appeared in the auction hall, and the only decorations on this pink-tailed mermaid were the two white shells on its chest and the green kelp in its hair that resembled a bun.

It has to be said that marine life seems to be naturally more unrestrained.

The female six-armed Naga that Thain had seen before had nothing on her chest, and her breasts stood proudly in front of the public.

The mermaid in front of me really needs to be a little more conservative. At least she used shells to cover up her two spots of beauty.

But judging from the results, it is better for her not to cover it up, because with the shells as decorations, the looming feeling is more attractive.

The yellow-robed magician on the auction stage was still chattering about the mermaid in the water tank.

The magician was so eloquent that he practically stripped the mermaid naked and showed it to everyone.

For example, this person obviously seems to be a relatively stable magician, but he can introduce it without changing his face: "When using charm or other soul magic to make this mermaid sacrifice itself, the mermaid will release its dorsal fin and the fish's tail will Turn into legs and have sex with people.”

"And after losing his virginity, he gained the ability to walk on land and will never betray him."

Such obscene and private words not only did not make the atmosphere at the auction awkward, but many people became eager to try it, especially the knights at the lower level of the auction. Their desires were much stronger than those of the magicians.

It's just that in terms of financial resources, most knights are not as rich as the magicians.

Thain was also examining the mermaid, but apart from his initial surprise, Thain's next focus was on a blue crystal necklace hanging around the mermaid's neck.

The special water element fluctuations and obscure space fluctuations allowed Thain to discover the difference in the necklace with an alchemist's sense of smell.

At the end, the auctioneer also introduced the necklace around the mermaid’s neck.

"This necklace is a magical device given by the auctioneer. In addition to having a certain increase in water element, the greater function of this necklace is..."

The yellow-robed magician first raised his voice, and after arousing the interest of many people, he used his magic power to activate the necklace around the mermaid's neck.

The mermaid, who was slapping the water in the tank, disappeared instantly.

Instead, there was a lifelike mermaid silhouette in the middle of the crystal necklace floating in mid-air.

The situation at the auction caused many people to whisper in surprise.

As an alchemist, Thain couldn't help but stand up from his seat in the box in an instant.

This is a relatively advanced manned space equipment in alchemy. ,

To this day, the space equipment that Thain can produce is only for carrying cargo.

Thain can basically make ordinary space rings now.

However, relatively advanced space equipment that can carry living creatures is not something that Thain can deal with yet.

On the contrary, Thain's previous mentor, Moses Duo, had abilities in related fields.

For example, the space flute that carries Xiao Qi was the handiwork of Moshe Duo when he was seriously injured at that time.

But Moses had so many accomplishments, which were a manifestation of his tireless alchemical achievements for more than 800 years.

How many years has it been since Thane embarked on the path of alchemy research and magical truth?

Even if he inherited Moses' inheritance and many magic books, some hard growth was not something that Thain could achieve in a short time.

Needless to say, Thain did not spend all his energy on alchemy. His fire magic, light magic, Jade Fire Tempering and other knowledge mysteries all required him to spend a long time and energy to study.

The appearance of this crystal necklace in front of him made Thain once again have a desire to research manned space equipment. Yes, compared to this beautiful mermaid, what Thane thinks is more valuable is actually this crystal necklace.

And he felt that this crystal necklace should contain more space-based alchemical secrets than the space flutes made by Moses.

Because Moxiduo's space flute only allows monsters like Xiao Qi to enter, but the crystal necklace in front of him is enough to carry humanoid creatures.

I just don’t know what its specific carrying capacity is and whether there are any other restrictions.

While Thain's mind was still diverging in the field of alchemy, a new round of bidding had begun in the auction hall below.

The high base price did not stop the enthusiasm of those knights and magicians.

The knights and magicians in the boxes on the third floor and below are basically just watching the excitement. Those who really participate in the game are some hidden existences in the boxes on the fourth floor and above where Thain is.

Because of the cover of the box and the privacy and convenience provided by the auction house.

Morals and rules completely disappear here, and all that exists are naked interests and desires.

The final transaction price of this pink-tailed mermaid was fixed at 4,734 magic coins.

This price is lower than Thain's psychological expectations.

Don't know what the specific reason is.

Thain did not take this as a scapegoat. When the mermaid in the water tank was carried off the field again, Thain was still thinking about the mysteries related to the manned space equipment.

"Teacher Moshe has inherited more alchemy skills. In fact, it is senior brother Zorro who has inherited more."

"I wonder if Senior Brother Zorro has mastered the secret of manned space equipment. If I can see Senior Brother this time when I go to the Western Islands, I must exchange knowledge with Senior Brother on the inheritance of mentor knowledge." Thain mused. .

After the pink-tailed mermaid was carried off the stage, Thain's auction trip has basically come to an end.

The starting prices for the subsequent auction items were basically no less than 1,000 magic coins. These auction items were all aimed at at least second-level magicians.

However, Thain was patient in the end and participated in the entire auction, which was of great use in improving Thain's vision.

As for the third-level peak biological core, which was designated as the finale item of the auction, the final transaction price was as high as more than 33,700 magic coins.

This made Thane feel very passionate about the fire-breathing dragon king in his mentor Lu Lianman's laboratory. It was all money!
