Chapter 110
The auction house was very quiet, and no one was bidding.
Looking at the quiet auction house, Count Brandon looked calm, neither happy nor sad. He knew that someone would definitely bid for it.
“Seven hundred thousand gold coins.”
Sure enough, there was a sound from room 1.
Then came the laughter of Marquis Hyman, “I heard that the magic book of thunder is not bad. A cultivation method of thunder is needed in the military camp.”
Hearing Marquis Hyman’s words, Count Brandon’s face darkened. If the magic book of the Brandon family was really used by the army, then the Brandon family would be humiliated.
However, the Brandon family had prepared for this auction for a long time. Besides, he was clear about the strength of the Hyman family.
Therefore, Count Brandon was sure to win this auction. Looking in the direction of room 1, he sneered and said, “Really? I wonder if Mr. Marquis has so many gold coins.”
“You don’t have to do that.”
Marquis Hyman’s calm voice came from room 1.
Seeing the tit for tat between the two people, the onlookers on the ground suddenly became excited. They came to the auction just to see the competition between the peak forces!
“Eight hundred thousand.”
“Nine hundred thousand.”
“One million.”
“Eleven hundred thousand.”
Neither of the two sides wanted to give up. The price soon reached 1.1 million gold coins.
In room 3, Count Brandon’s face darkened. ‘Hyman, you bastard! It was supposed to cost 500 thousand, but now it cost twice as much!’
In sharp contrast to this, Marquis Hyman in Room 1 was extremely happy. This level-4 magic book of thunder was dispensable to the Hyman family. The reason why he raised the price was that he wanted to give disgust to Count Brandon.
“Fifteen hundred thousand gold coins.” The bidding came again from room 1. This time, Marquis Hyman increased four hundred thousand gold coins directly.
After raising the price this time, he waved his hand, indicating that his subordinates beside him not to continue bidding. He knew that the Brandon family was determined to get the level-4 magic book, so even if he raised the price to 1.5 million gold coins, the other party would follow him.
According to his understanding of the Brandon family, the bottom line should be about 1.5 million gold coins.
“Sixteen hundred thousand gold coins.”
Sure enough, another voice came from room 2.
With a professional smile on his face, the auctioneer looked around the auction house and said slowly, “1.6 million gold coins. Is there anyone else who wants to raise the price?”
It was over.
Seeing this, the people sitting below sighed in their hearts. Even Marquis Hyman, the biggest rival of the Brandon family, had given up, how could there be anyone else to raise the price?
There was no doubt that the magic book would come back to the Brandon family soon.
“Sixteen hundred thousand first.”
“Sixteen hundred thousand second.”
The auctioneer shouted. Knowing that it was a foregone conclusion, the auctioneer didn’t waste any more time. “1.6 million last chance…”
“Sixteen point one hundred thousand.”
A voice came from the crowd.
Someone was bidding!
The people below were stunned and didn’t seem to understand what was going on. If he continued to bid at this time, he was completely against the Brandon family.
Moreover, they felt like he was making fun of someone when he raised the price by ten thousand?
Those who had come to watch the show were all excited at this moment. For them, the auction item was not the protagonist, but the fight between the major forces!
“It’s room 11!”
Someone quickly figured out the direction of the voice.
Following the direction the man pointed, everyone looked at the private room where Locke was. They were full of shock and confusion.
Who was in room 11? How dare he go against the Brandon family?
“I’m sorry. I suddenly remembered that my table at home has a short leg. I think this book is so good to pad the leg. Mr. Count, would you like to give it up?”
Locke’s voice was calm and orderly, as if he was talking about something reasonable.
Hiss!
Hearing this, all the people below were stunned. What did they hear?
The table at home was uneven, so you wanted to take this magic book back to pad the table leg!
He was going to take the inherited magic book back to pad the table leg!
It was a pure humiliation!
In the room, hearing Locke’s words, Athena burst into laughter.
The maid behind them was stunned. She didn’t expect that Locke would be so bold to make trouble for the Brandon family in public.
The expressions of the people in the private rooms were also very wonderful.
In room 1, Marquis Hyman was also stunned for a while and then burst into laughter. After laughing, he ordered the person beside him in a low voice, “Go and check who is in room 11.”
The man nodded and went out.
In room 2, there was also a strange look on Mallory’s face. He turned his head to look at Mrs. Beulah and asked with uncertainty, “Is the voice… Is it from Locke?”
“It should be him.” Mrs. Beulah nodded resignedly.
In another luxurious room, Count Grace and Rosaline looked a little surprised. Even though they knew that Locke had a grudge against the Brandon family, they didn’t expect that Locke would choose to confront the Brandon family head-on at this time.
There are three level-4 mages in the Brandon family!
Athena was the only level-4 mage by Locke’s side, so it was obviously irrational to be against the Brandon family now.
The one who had changed most was Count Brandon in Room 3. He stared in the direction of Locke’s room, with cold killing intent in his eyes. Finally, he slowly spat out two words, “Go on.”
“Eighteen hundred thousand.”
Butler Dyna shouted.
In room 11, Locke smiled faintly and said slowly, “Eighteen point one hundred thousand.”
Although he didn’t have 1.81 million gold coins with him, he was not anxious at all. After all, there was a level-6 soul restoration elixir in the system space. It was the reward given by Asclepius when he thought Locke was friendly enough.
Of course, he just wanted to disgust Count Brandon. He was not stupid enough to really take this magic book. The soul restoration elixir was just his asset.
“This guy is deliberately making trouble for Brandon. Did he have any conflict with Brandon before?” in room 2, Mallory asked in confusion.
Mrs. Beulah sighed and said, “No matter what conflicts there were in the past, with Brandon’s vengeful character, the relationship between the two may have reached an irreparable level.”
“Two million.”
“Twenty point one hundred thousand.”
Locke said slowly.
It was very quiet in the auction house. People could only hear their breaths getting heavier and heavier. They finally realized that the price increased by ten thousand at a time. It was just a joke on Count Brandon!
While they were shocked, they were also very curious about the background of the people in room 11 who dared to make trouble for the Brandon family.
Looking in the direction of Locke’s room, Count Brandon’s face turned livid with anger.
“Brat, you still need to have a clear estimation of yourself. Otherwise, you won’t even know how you died.”
