Each next item shocked Ye Xiaolu harder then the previous one. Not just rare treasures, but slaves of all kinds of lofty races and as well as a shocking number of magic weapons.
Only now she realized that armor made of 1500 living Golden Armored aliens was nothing. Not since there were other, more dreadful and gruesome, items following it.
“We aren’t buying?”
“We are.”
“What does that mean?”
The ending was near, yet Li Mo had been ever silent.
“And now, the Lost Era.”
As Gu Zheng announced, Li Mo held a trace of expectation.
“Every auction will have a Lost Era part in their program. The name is obviously hinting at the Lost Era’s items.”
“Got it.”
Ye Xiaolu saw Yu Buyi and Lan Qianyi were standing up.
Watching the greed on Lan Qianyi, Ye Xiaolu realized why he gave Ye Xiaolu such an expensive gift. All for the Lost Era.
“A Lost Era appraiser is called an exotic appraiser. Yu Buyi for example is a third rank exotic appraiser, among the highest in the ‘lost’ world.”
Lost Era items started pouring in, not in display cases, but paraded among the audience in carriages.
When someone looked, they’d stop, otherwise they’d tour the audience.
“The Gu Auction’s Lost Era items are of greater quality than in a small shop.”
Li Mo held a hand sized stone disk and handed over his crystal card.
Li Mo bought the disk.
“1.1 million?”
Ye Xiaolu cried in shock at the price.
“One million is the starting price here. There’s no item here beneath that. While a hundred thousand is the price for the reality drug. While buying Lost Era items at Gu Auction one condition had to be fulfilled, it has to be unsealed.“
Sealed was what all Lost Era items were called. Before they were unsealed, these items were no different from your average junk one threw away last year. But once unsealed, Lost Era items would show their splendor.
The auction staff gave Li Mo a vial of ‘reality drug’ and poured it on the disk.
In a flash of light, the stone disk let out a white smoke then split apart.
“What happened? Why is it broken?”
“A bust.”
Li Mo sighed.
Li Mo was the first who bought a Lost Era item, earning the other’s ridicule.
“Not one penny return. A bust of 1.1 million?”
“Yeah.”
“Goddammit!”
After another round, Li Mo spent another 1.1 million over a half a meter long stone stick.
After the reality drug was added, the stick remained… a stick.
But unlike the last one, at least this stone stick was intact.
“Excuse me sir, will you buy a blood vial?”
“No.”
Li Mo shook his head and put the stick away.
“Bust again?”
Li Mo nodded.
“You call that good? Let me have it!”
“Fine, you try.”
Ye Xiaolu started a scrutiny.
Hum~
Bam~
As she was choosing, a golden light shone everywhere.
“A hit!” Someone cried.
Ye Xiaolu found Yu Buyi holding a golden pot.
Yu Buyi tapped the pot with his finger, and golden smoke came out of it. It took the form of a humanoid that started punching.
Pff…
Yu Buyi pressed a finger on the pot’s top and the figure vanished.
“It’s a lost martial art!”
“I saw it too!”
“Gods, a Lost Era’s martial art. How much is that worth?”
“A pity it’s only one move. If it were complete, I could’ve trained in it!”
“Who wouldn’t? That Yu Buyi is too cunning.”
Yu Buyi laughed, turning to the stunned crowd.
Gu Zheng shouted, “The bid starts at 3.6 million for the lost martial art golden pot!”
“35!” Someone shouted.
“50!” Another.
Lost Era martial arts held a powerful attraction to aliens wishing to increase their power.
Yu Buyi said, “I won’t sell it even for 100 million. Not here at least, but at the annual auction!”
Only then did the lost martial art enthusiasts cooled.
“See that?” Ye Xiaolu felt jealousy bursting.
“How much is this?” Ye Xiaolu touched a millstone sized rock.
“3.7 million.”
“I’ll take it! Pay up!”
Li Mo gave his card in stunned shock.
Ye Xiaolu payed 3.7 million for the biggest Lost Era item here.
“The bigger it is, the better it will be. Look at the two you chose!“
Ye Xiaolu poured the reality drug on the stone.
A white smoke came, then a foul stench covered the entire auction.
The stone started twisting, filled with grooves…
“Ughh..”
Ye Xiaolu hurled her lunch on the spot.
Gu Zheng shouted, “The bid starts at 3.6 million for Lost Era feces!”
“Ughh..”
“Ughh..”
Everyone was puking their guts.
“Excuse me miss, this chamber pot…”
“I don’t want it. Get it away from here!” Ye Xiaolu was pale.
The auction resumed normalcy only when the chamber pot left the building.
It went without saying Ye Xiaolu became the butt of the auctioneers’ joke.
“Blast it! What’s this Lost Era doing coughing up every damn item?” Ye Xiaolu was pissed and disgusted.
“Some are good, some bad, some real, some fake. These are lost items.
“Big isn’t always better since some small ones can turn big.”
Hum~
A blue glow shone and not from Yu Buyi, but from a gorgeous babe.
The woman was just like a human with blue, wavy hair.
She was from the Water race!
“Shui Yunlan!” Someoen cried.
Li Mo’s heart skipped a beat.
Shui Yunlan was one of the strongest from the young generation in western quadrant. As famous as Ao Zhan, Ao Zhen and Ao Tong.
“She opened up a Light Ring!”
“Wow~”
All attention shifted to Shui Yunlan.
