Chapter 619: Chapter 309 Deception Fruit_1

"How much?" Long Kongkong looked at Ling Menglu in shock. Even though he had expected the final amount they could use wouldn’t be small, he absolutely had no idea the figure would be so astonishingly big.

However, Ling Menglu calmly repeated the number she had previously mentioned, "316.53 million gold coins."

Astronomical figures, no doubt, for everyone, this was definitely an astronomical number.

Even in the high cost of living in the Holy City, an average family of three’s yearly expenditure was likely between thirty to fifty gold coins. A household with a moderate income would not surpass fifty gold coins per annum. This shows how strong the purchasing power of gold coins are.

At this moment, the staggering figures that Ling Menglu mentioned can only be described by the term ’shocking’. No wonder, previously, Ling Menglu stated that they could still consider Epic Class equipment. They do have the capability!

Long Dangdang had anticipated that the magical beast blood could make a huge profit, but he never imagined that it would be this much. Within these gold coins, a large chunk would probably come from the Ling family. He had no idea how the calculation was made, but upon looking at Ling Menglu’s calm eyes, his heart gradually started trembling.

Ling Menglu grabbed his hand, and stuffed in a dark golden card, "The money is in here, join the auction without hesitation. Anything that you need, you should be able to afford."

Feeling the warmth and softness from Ling Menglu’s palm, Long Dangdang subconsciously tightened his grip around her hand.

Finally, Ling Menglu’s voice trembled slightly, "Apart from weapons and natural treasures, there are miscellaneous auctions too. There will a variety of auctioned items, we have to choose ourselves. However, there’s one thing I need to remind you, I advise against buying too many natural treasures to enhance Cultivation Level, the Cultivation Level improved in this way will be unstable. Moreover, it shouldn’t be of much use to you."

"Thank you." Long Dangdang’s voice was slightly hoarse.

Ling Menglu gave him a sideways look, "If you thank me again, you won’t be holding my hand anymore."

Others exchanged glances, upon seeing their hands held tight there was no mistaking it. Although there were hints previously, the current scene was a public confirmation! However, at this moment, no one seemed to manage a congratulatory sentiment.

"Ahem, it’s beginning." The voice of Long Kongkong gathered everyone’s attention.

Seeing his older brother and Ling Menglu holding hands, he unconsciously began missing Hep Benn, the longing within him started to overflow, he secretly decided, no matter what, he needed to see her.

At this moment, the auction officially started. Ling Menglu withdrew the soundproof barrier, and sounds from the auction stage were transmitted into the box through a specified communication device.

"Honorable guests, our quarterly auction, held every three months, will begin shortly. Good evening, I am the chief auctioneer, Huang Wei, who will host today’s first-half auction."

Auctioneer Huang Wei was a tall and slick-looking middle-aged man dressed in a splendid tailcoat, wearing a professional smile on his face, his small eyes were curved like crescents, giving off a harmless vibe.

"Before the auction begins, allow me to give a brief introduction to today’s auction. This quarter’s auction, compared to the previous ones, has some changes. The most important change is that the total amount of this auction significantly increased from the typical 60% of annual auction, to 80%. Therefore, at this auction, esteemed guests will certainly witness many good things. We hope you will like them."

"Secondly, at this auction, the originally one-off treasures of heaven and earth session, will be divided into two parts. The auction of magical beast blood will be arranged as a separate session. I believe that this is the main objective of our esteemed guests."

"Lastly, this auction will continue over three days, but treasures of heaven and earth, weapons, equipment, and miscellaneous items auctions will be held simultaneously every day. There will be a finale and major finale each day, showing a diverse variety. Enough of the talks, let’s begin our auction. First up, it will be what everyone has been looking forward to the most - the auction of magical beast blood. Esteemed guests, please be prepared. Now, let’s welcome our hosts with our first item."

Following the brief introduction, the auction formally started and soon enough, the first item was brought forth,d it appeared to be a very beautiful... wooden bucket!

The surface of the wooden bucket had an odd, light golden glow, demonstrating the presence of a magic array formation.

"Our first item of today is the blood from an Earth Thorny Dragon. As everyone knows, Earth Thorny Dragon, is a part of the earth dragon bloodline. Although it’s not of a high level, it has a docile temperament. Its blood can be better absorbed when used in Blood Refining Golden Body cultivation. And there have been cases proving that by absorbing the blood of the Earth Thorny Dragon, you can gain its innate talent skill, Gravitational Control. Also note, it is a powerful skill that can be activated using Bloodline Power, also called outer spiritual power. Once possessed, it’s essentially an extra life-saving capability. That’s without taking into account the enormous assistance its blood offers to the improvement of outer spiritual power. Today, we will be auctioning ten barrels of earth thorny dragon blood. Each auction will be separate. Each barrel contains a hundred kilograms, starting price is fifty thousand gold coins. Let’s begin the auction for the first barrel of earth thorny dragon blood. Each bid must increase by no less than a thousand gold coins."
