In the evening, the three of them had dinner at the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce. Gong You also introduced the two young wives of the president to the employees of the chamber of commerce. He also made it compulsory for the wives of the president to have the same rights as the president, and made all the employees of the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce listen to Hilo and Luana's orders. This was to make it easier for the two women to take over the chamber of commerce after he left. Compared to the sincerity of the two women, a mere chamber of commerce with a few hundred million in book balance was nothing.
When night fell, he set off for the auction with two women and a few trusted aides. The three of them were wearing magic robes, while the trusted aides were dressed as butlers. They rode in the Chamber of Commerce's own simple box carriage. It was different to have someone to wait on them. Not only were all the procedures done, but they did not even need to open the door themselves. It was really classy.
When he walked out of the carriage, the first thing he saw was the bunny girl attendant at the entrance of the auction house... No, it should be the female attendant of the human-rabbit hybrid race. It made him feel that the Otherworld was also very playful. After he held the two women and followed the rabbit-eared attendant who led the way through the door, he found a large number of golems in charge of security standing on both sides of the courtyard aisle. As the three of them had already seen a more advanced version of the obsidian doll in the maze, they were not too surprised by the golems. But in fact, the combat power of these golems was comparable to a knight regiment.
After using Omniscient Search, he found out that these golems were not owned by the Church. They were created by the Guild of Magic and were rented to the venue for temporary use. They were trial products designed by the guild to restore the magical technology of the ancient civilization. There were also simple artificial personalities installed in the golems. Although they could not carry out overly complicated orders, they were enough to cooperate with the commanders to protect the order of the venue.
The confidants of the Chamber of Commerce were stopped by the organizers and stayed in the central courtyard. The three of them passed through the central courtyard and entered the official venue. It was a huge stone building with stone pillars supporting the ceiling. The overall size was as wide as an indoor gymnasium. In the middle was a half-meter-tall ceremonial platform the size of a basketball court. Around the platform were more than a hundred seating areas separated by screens. There were four single sofas and a small table. At this time, the table was already filled with refreshments.
Under the guidance of the rabbit-eared waiter, the three of them entered the seating area of the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce. Their seats were in the corner of the venue. It seemed that the auction was arranged according to the size of the Chamber of Commerce. After the waiter explained the auction rules, he did not leave. Instead, he waited outside the screen of the seating area.
He casually picked up the bidding sign and played with it for a while before putting it down in boredom. He looked around and realized that the other chambers of commerce were blocked by the screen, so he could only tease the two girls to pass the time. Luana left the sofa and sat on his lap, while Hilo sat on the other knee. The three of them were just about to confirm their relationship and soon kissed. In this atmosphere, even Hilo and Luana held back their shyness and asked for a kiss.
"Hmm? What fruit is this?" Luana picked up a small exotic fruit on the table and asked casually. However, before she could answer, she stuffed the fruit into her mouth. After a while, she spat it out and said with a bitter face," It tastes strange. You guys have one too."”
Luana picked up two exotic fruits and stuffed them into Gongyou and Hilo's mouths. They tasted a little like grapes, but the skin was a little bitter. He could not help but say," Idiot, you have to peel these before you can eat them."”
"You're the idiot, hmph." Luana also thought of the reason why the exotic fruit tasted strange, but she didn't want to admit that she was wrong.
Seeing that Luana was acting coquettishly, he helplessly picked up a fruit that tasted like grapes and peeled it before stuffing it into her mouth. She happily kissed him again, while Hilo picked up a fruit and peeled it before feeding it to him. He happily hugged her and kissed her. When Luana saw this, she immediately put the peeled fruit in her mouth.
After the three of them had been intimate for more than ten minutes, there was a sudden cough outside the seating area. Hilo jumped back to his seat as fast as lightning, while Luana continued to sit on his side. A few seconds after the cough, the waiter came in to inform him that someone was looking for him, but before he could reply, the group of people walked around the screen and entered the seating area.
The leader of the visitors was a middle-aged businessman who looked very neat and tidy. He was followed by several businessmen of different ages. The middle-aged businessman looked at Gongyou and Hilo for a while before introducing himself." Hello, I'm Mars Blake, the president of the Blake Chamber of Commerce. You must be Mr. Gongyou and the two ladies, right?”
Gong You looked at the person who looked very similar to the mustache man and immediately obtained all the information from Omniscient. Then, he patted Luana's back and asked her to return to her seat. He did not stand up to welcome the evil guest, but casually pointed at the only empty sofa and said," I am Gong You. Please sit."”
Mars Blake frowned at Gongyou's rude behavior, but he still held back his temper and sat down. After Mars sat down, he straightened his posture and said to Gongyou with a serious expression," I believe Mr. Gongyou has expected this meeting. My brother had a misunderstanding with you this morning. I hope you can..."
"There is no misunderstanding. I never have any misunderstandings with the dead. If you want to talk about this matter, please leave. I am very busy and have no time to entertain you.”Marzu did not understand the difference in status between the two of them. Even if he was the eldest son of Marquis Blake's uncle and the cousin of the current lord of the Capital of Commerce, he could kill Marzu with a thought, as if he was crushing an ant.
"…I apologize to you on behalf of my brother. I hope that we can reconcile this mistake. This is also what the bishop wants.”Mars said while suppressing his anger. If the chief priest had not pressured the marquis, he would not have come to meet this small fry. He was just a mid-level adventurer, and he could kill several of them with a word.
"Oh, what does the Grand Priest mean? Alright, you still have a chance to say one more thing.”He did not want to have a conflict with the Church now, be it in terms of power or for the sake of Hilo, so he decided to give Mars a chance.
"... Ten magic crystal coins (900,000 RMB) and the friendship of the Marquis family, I hope…" Mars thought for a moment before proposing what he thought was a very generous settlement condition. He believed that the small fry opposite him would agree ecstatically, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by the lazy-looking mid-level adventurer.
"Please go back. I'm tired. You should go back early and use ten magic crystal coins to order an enchanted urn for your brother.”Gong You waved his hand angrily. He was a transmigrator who spent tens of millions of RMB per hour. Now, his net worth alone was worth hundreds of millions of RMB. Money was the least valuable thing to him. How could he have the time to talk about a few hundred thousand RMB with The Clown?
At this moment, a young noble who had barged into the seating area with Mars could not help but step forward and point at the commoner. He berated," Shut up, you damned commoner. How dare you…"
Gong You was furious after hearing the stranger's scolding and secretly activated his private server.
'…Private server in trial operation…Internal spell detection normal…Connecting to external public Mana Net, failed…Detection, external Mana Net signal blocked by unknown (Forbidden Mana Jade)…Activating internal energy reserve to continue operation…Magic incantation import complete…Real-time lock transmission through eyes automatically…0.3x spiritual suppression activated…'
Without waiting for the reckless person to finish, he raised his head and glanced at the young noble with his pale golden pupils. The young noble's knees went weak and he knelt on the ground. The simplified version of this mental suppression was a small trick that he had developed urgently after the incident in the morning. He had only recorded it into his private server more than an hour ago, although it was not very powerful.(It didn't consume magic spell slots in the outside world, but the energy stored in the private magic net), but it could be used freely even in the auction house surrounded by the magic restriction jade.
" Demon Eye!?" The followers standing behind Mars around the seating area immediately screamed in horror and fled. Even Mars was so frightened by this sudden situation that he stood up. The only magic that could be instantly cast next to the magic-sealing jade that shielded the magic net was a bloodline-type natural spell, and the change in the shape of the eye was a characteristic of the activation of the magic eye. However, after a moment of fear, Mars saw that the young noble was not really injured. At this moment, he was still able to escape on all fours. Therefore, Mars, who was used to seeing all kinds of storms, sat down again. Mars discovered that the young adventurer who had just arrived from other places had held back and concluded that he did not want to completely fall out with him.
Luana was gloating as she watched the young noble crawl away without any regard for his image. She covered her mouth and giggled. She had probably forgotten that she had been beaten up by Common Freedom more than an hour ago. However, the fun between lovers had always been settled at the end of the bed. Hilo had been sitting quietly on the sofa watching him from the beginning of this sudden meeting. She supported Common Freedom's choice.
After calming down, Mars observed the black-haired young man carefully again. The black-haired young man who had no respect for nobles was not as bad as his brother had said. At least, he was not a mid-level adventurer who had become rich overnight in Bayfield. Mars found that the robe he wore was very simple and looked very cheap, but Mars felt that it looked familiar. After thinking about it seriously for a while, he remembered that it was the mainstream magic robe in the Empire. Then, Mars looked at the two rings on his hands. He had wanted to settle the matter quickly, so he had not noticed them. Now that he took a closer look, he realized that they were enchanted rings. The bracelet on his wrist, which should be made of magic gems, was also expensive. Thinking about how he had once bought a Chamber of Commerce, perhaps his identity was not as simple as Mars thought.
" I apologize once again for my brother's recklessness. I happen to have a magic book in my private collection, and I hope to use it as a gift to ask for a settlement and the dismissal of the lawsuit.”Mars sat up straight and advised seriously. As proud as he was, he could only choose to ignore the impatience on Gong You's face and continue the negotiation with the shrewdness of a veteran businessman.
" That bearded man's rotten life is actually worth a magic book? Why do I feel like I've made a profit? Originally, he did not have high expectations for Marzu's conditions, but magic books were his Achilles 'heel. He needed a large number of magic books to expand his private server database.
"Is it a combat magic book? What rank?" Although Gong You really wanted to get his hands on the magic book, he still asked unhurriedly. Combat magic books were not available on the market now.
"It's a magic book with a Basic Spell weapon.”Mars finally heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Gongyou had finally responded. It seemed that there was hope for the mediation led by the chief priest to succeed. However, this compensation required the use of his private property and could not be credited to the public account of the Chamber of Commerce. It was especially painful for him to bleed out his savings for many years.
"Six people broke into my room this morning. One magic book is not enough.”After knowing that the previous conditions were not Marzu's bottom line, he began to increase his chips. Anyway, the ants in the morning were not important. If he could really exchange them for a magic book that could not be bought with money, he would have made a profit.
"…Well, I'm adding a work-related basic magic book on lime extraction.”Of course, Mars could not ignore the deputy commander of the knights and the four garrison knights who had been implicated by his brother. Otherwise, if people said that the Marquis family could not even protect their subordinates and threw them away as scapegoats when something happened, the hearts of the people in the territory would be scattered.
"Yes, send the spellbook to the Church before noon tomorrow, and I'll agree to the settlement.”Gong You nodded and agreed to the conditions. He made a choice between venting his anger and burning ants or Happy building a private server. The lives of one or two people did not mean much to him, and building a private server was more important. Strength was the foundation for him to stand in the Otherworld, and it was also necessary for him to protect his lover. He was no longer alone, and he should consider the future of the three of them.?
Mars politely bid farewell and left. He had business to attend to at the auction tonight, and the reconciliation was just a casual act after hearing from his subordinate that he was also present. After the outsiders left, the three of them were once again intimately hugging each other. The little episode just now did not affect the fact that there were only Gongyou, Hilo, and Luana.
.
After another half an hour, it was almost 8:30 p. m. The auction, which had been delayed due to the late arrival of some important guests, officially began. The surrounding magic stone lamps were dimmed, while the stage in the middle was brightly illuminated by several magic stone lamps. Traces of a barrier could be vaguely seen on the ground. At this moment, a young man was standing in the spotlight with a magic amplifier in his hand.
" Welcome to the pre-match special auction held by the Church of the God of Forging and Steel..." The young male emcee announced the start of the auction on the high platform in the middle of the venue in a calm and clear tone. Then, the believer said a series of words of praise to the God, which lasted for several minutes before it ended.
"Then, the auction will officially begin. The first item for auction tonight is the Guardian Gem. It is a miraculous item created by the Church of the God of Forging and Steel in accordance with the standards of the various churches. It can…start at 1 magical crystal coin (90,000 RMB). Each increment must be at least 1 gold coin (3,000 RMB). Please begin the bidding now.”The host introduced the first item for auction. It was the Guardian Gem that saved Gongyou from the Lich in the old capital. It was a miraculous item designed by the Church to fight against the Chaos Faction or the Evil Faction. Basically, every Church in the Order Faction could make it.
After a round of bidding, the Guardian Gem was finally bought for a total of 183,000 RMB, which seemed to have exceeded the common price of 1 gold coin announced by the Church. Those who were competing with him just now stopped bidding after hearing this price. Instead, they began to ask around for information about the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce.
"…Congratulations to the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce for winning the first auction item tonight.”Even the emcee was curious about the background of this Chamber of Commerce that had suddenly appeared, but his professionalism allowed him to quickly return to his senses and continue hosting the auction.
The second auction item was boring, but the third item piqued Gong You's interest.
" The third item is the Full Rejuvenation Potion. This potion..." The emcee continued to explain for half a minute before he finished explaining the function of the purple potion.
This potion was the complete version of the Vitality Potion that Gongyou had bought from the Fairy Village. One purple bottle was worth four pink bottles, and the starting bid was 20,000 RMB. Gongyou had also bid once, but Omniscient had determined that it was only worth 30,000 RMB. Because it was not a necessity, he had stopped bidding halfway. In the end, the potion was bought by a certain Chamber of Commerce for 100,000 RMB.
……
" The fifth auction item is the Giant's Potion. This potion..." The host explained the black potion on the display stage very enthusiastically, and the reaction below the stage was also very enthusiastic.
He used Omniscient to check the information of this potion and found that it was the complete version of the Great Strength Potion. Its effect was several times stronger. Ordinary people could fight against high-level adventurers for a short time after drinking it. Its value was 80,000 RMB. However, perhaps because the competition was approaching, the potion that started at 20,000 RMB was finally sold at 200,000 RMB.
……
" The seventh item is the Advanced Magic Scroll, Lightning…" The emcee openly explained the effects of the military single-target killing scroll, ignoring the kingdom's law that prohibited the possession of Advanced Magic Scrolls by non-nobles.
This seemed to be the high-level version of the intermediate magic scroll, Little Lightning. The energy contained in it had reached an exaggerated level of one billion Joules (1e9J), and the upper limit of its power was equivalent to a small cloud bomb with a yield of more than 240 kilograms. However, it seemed that the large merchant associations could obtain high-level magic scrolls through other means, so the final competition was not too intense. It was won by a total of 300,000 RMB.
……
" The tenth item is the Longevity Fruit..." As soon as the host announced the name of the item, a series of exclamations came from below the stage, forcing the host to stop for a few seconds and wait for the noise to die down before continuing the introduction.
This was a miraculous fruit that had anti-aging properties and no side effects. The three young people were not very interested, so they ate the melons while watching the various chambers of commerce compete for this fruit. It was clearly not outstanding in terms of the eternal youth and rejuvenation that they saw in the trial maze rewards. It could only allow a person to live to about 120 years old safely, but at this time, the big shots in the venue had already gone crazy.
Generally, the assets of a low-level noble family were only a few million RMB. Some poor honorary nobles could not even afford a White-grade Knight Armor that was worth tens of thousands of RMB. On the other hand, the assets of high-level noble families were mostly more than 100 million RMB. However, assets were assets. Under the condition that they did not sell their fixed assets, it would be good if the high-level nobles could withdraw a few million RMB in cash. Some non-real-power nobles who did not operate well could not even gather a million RMB. Only the big nobles could afford to take out tens of millions of RMB in liquid funds. However, the final price of the Longevity Fruit in this auction had reached 30 million RMB, which was enough to prove the desire of the rich and powerful for longevity.
……
" The thirteenth auction item is…" The auctioneer introduced a special item this time. The bidder he was facing was also a major faction.
This was because the auction item was a batch of weapons made from monster materials. Each of them had an average price of about 20,000 RMB, and there were more than 100 of them in total. The quality of the weapons was indeed excellent compared to ordinary metal weapons, but it was far from reaching the level of enchanted equipment. It was not as good as the top, but it was better than the bottom. Anyway, he was not interested in it at all.
" The 14th item is…" This time, the auction item was also targeted at major factions. It was a batch of high-grade minerals used to forge weapons. Because Gong You did not plan to waste time setting up a weapons workshop, he sat in a corner and watched the show again.
……
" The twentieth auction item is an alchemy puppet, the crystallization of modern alchemy technology…" The emcee introduced it with great effort, but there was little reaction from the audience.
The auction item this time was the latest experimental product produced by the Alchemist Guild. Its performance wasn't bad, and its combat power was already comparable to a Bronze Adventurer. In other words, it was comparable to an Obsidian Doll, but the maintenance cost of this puppet was very high. It was relatively more cost-effective to hire a high-level Adventurer.
The starting price of three million RMB was only sold for five million RMB. The merchant association that won the auction probably didn't know the details. When they discovered the monthly maintenance fee of several hundred thousand RMB, they might cry. This kind of puppet was left untouched for this maintenance price. If it was frequently moved, the maintenance cost would more than double. As for whether it could really be used in battle, it would be a problem if it could last for several hours without being damaged.
……
" The 30th item is the Epic-level equipment set,'Ta Rasha's Dharma Logies'. This set of Epic-level equipment is a replica made by the Guild of Magic to commemorate the 1,000-year birthday of the Honorary Elder Ta Rasha…" The host finally introduced the target of tonight's auction. They had been preparing for a long time to bid for this set of equipment.
Epic-level equipment was different from White-grade equipment, Enchantment, Rune Words, and other equipment. Anyone below Epic-level equipment could use it. Even a villager with Rune Words could use it in battle. However, the Epic-level equipment set at the auction required at least 18 spell slots to activate. The wielder had to first use their own spell slots to link and bind to the Epic-level equipment. The internal magic circle would be indirectly connected to the magic net through the spell slots before it could unleash the true power of the Epic-level equipment.
The magic circle inscribed in Ta Rasha's Dharma and Logos was a comprehensive resistance against magic, physical damage, mental damage, mental damage, soul damage, poison, paralysis, petrification, wind damage, lightning damage, and high temperature.(Burning), Low temperature It had the ability to resist abnormal statuses such as freezing, high pressure (gravity), impact, shock, dizziness, decay, filth, infiltration, curse, instant death, suffocation, and so on. In other words, any attack that could not break through the upper limit of the Epic-level equipment's defense would be blocked by it. Even if the wearer stood still and did not resist, and hundreds of knights from the city's garrison attacked him together, he would still be unharmed. Even if he went to the city's liege's residence to block the door, the entire Marquis 'family would not be able to do anything to the wearer.
"... The Golden Boots Merchant Association has shown their bidding board. The current auction price is 1,200 Magic Crystal Coins (108 million RMB). Is there any higher? Oh, the Blake Merchant Association has also shown their bidding board. The current auction price is..." The emcee shouted crazily. The starting price of 50 million RMB was raised to 100 million RMB in a short while. Every time he raised his bidding board, he would need at least 10 Magic Crystal Coins (900,000 RMB).
The two girls were dumbfounded. Although they had been brought to the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce by Gong You, he had only introduced them to his employees and did not explain in detail how much assets the chamber of commerce had. Therefore, the two girls were worried when they found out that he had raised the auction price so high. They wanted him to successfully buy the Epic equipment, but they were also afraid that he would court bankruptcy for their chamber of commerce.
"…It's the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce again. The current auction price is 2,000 Magic Crystal Coins (180 million RMB). Is there anyone else who wants to bid? This is an Epic Set Equipment, an Epic Set Equipment that is rarely seen in ten years…" The emcee frantically encouraged the various chambers of commerce and dignitaries below the stage, hoping to push the auction price to an even higher level.
However, the nobles present had already given up. After all, the price was too ridiculous. Moreover, not everyone could use this equipment after the auction. Without at least 18 free spell slots, they would not be able to fully activate the epic equipment set. Those who could activate it did not have the money to buy it, and those who had the money to buy it did not have the ability to activate it. In the end, Ta Rasha's Dharma was auctioned for a total of 180 million RMB.
" Just the imitation was sold for nearly 200 million RMB. How much is the real thing worth? No matter what, it had to be ten times more…Was two billion enough?'He only felt relieved after seeing the auction was settled. Although he had already known the final price from Omniscient, he was still worried that something unexpected would happen before it was realized.
In the front row of the seats that the three of them could not see, the president of the Blake Chamber of Commerce, Mars Blake, was so angry that he broke the tea set on the table. He had prepared 120 million RMB in cash for this set of epic equipment in advance. Although the total assets of his Chamber of Commerce exceeded 10 billion RMB, these assets were mainly fixed houses and goods. Squeezing out more than 100 million RMB of working capital almost caused problems in the operation of the Chamber of Commerce. Just now, in order to bid, he had borrowed nearly 60 million RMB from a few allied chambers of commerce. All his efforts had been ruined by a small chamber of commerce that Mars had never taken seriously. That mid-level adventurer that Mars looked down on had actually used his wealth to defeat him, the president of the largest chamber of commerce in the commercial capital, in the auction.
……
" The last auction item tonight is the Elf Bag. It's a special elven item that's comparable to a legendary item, personally made by the demigod Elemental Elf King..." The emcee explained the last auction item. It was a special item that did not belong to equipment.
When he heard the word " demigod " appear at the auction, he immediately shifted his attention away from the two women. He urgently checked Omniscient Wonder to obtain more complete information than the emcee. The Elf Bag was only the size of a handbag, but its capacity was comparable to that of a large carriage. The principle used was probably to compress the atomic distance of objects. The bag also came with an anti-gravity and anti-inertia barrier. Although the durability of this item was only about ten years, it was indeed a spatial storage item.
"Are there no storage rings on the market?”After reading the information, he could not help but mutter to himself. He did not want anyone to answer because he had already gotten the answer from Omniscient.
"All tools that involve space are at least Legendary, and storage rings are…divine artifacts, divine artifacts.”Hilo, who had never taken her attention away from Common, answered the question. She had read the church's classics since she was young and had seen the description of spatial storage items in the book.
The technological content of spatial props was so high that even complete nuclear technology could not compare to it. Nuclear weapons were nothing in front of spatial props. For example, if this prop was lost to the world before the Common Cause, even a big country would gamble their country's fate in order to compete for this prop, and it might even trigger the third world war.
As the three of them watched the show calmly, the Fairy Bag was competed against by the manager of a magic tool shop and the representative of the royal family. The bidding price kept rising, and in the end, the representative of the royal family had the advantage of being local. He won the capital transfer over the merchant of the empire and auctioned off the most valuable finale item of the auction with 1.11 trillion RMB in cash and 15% of the national tax for the next three years.
"…Once again, I would like to thank all the guests who have participated in tonight's auction. Now, please let us give a round of applause to celebrate the successful completion of the auction.”The emcee looked at the venue, which was already 11 pm but was still packed, and raised his hand to applaud.
.
After confirming that they would be able to win the Epic Set, a staff member had already gone to the central courtyard to find an employee of the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce to receive the funds. Therefore, after the auction ended, a staff member immediately came to receive the three of them and brought them to the treasure vault in the temporary backstage of the auction. In this auction, all items worth more than 5,000,000 RMB had to be personally entered into the treasure vault to retrieve. After a series of procedures, he finally obtained the Epic Set that he had dreamed of--Ta Rasha's Law.
This Epic Equipment Set had nine parts: a necklace, a ring, a bracelet, a headband, a shirt, gloves, a belt, pants, and shoes. Each part had several to more than ten incomplete magic circles. The entire set of equipment could be assembled into 79 complete Epic magic circles. Because the number of spell slots required to bind was the square root of the magic circle, multiplied by two, this set of equipment only needed 18 spell slots. Most of the Epic equipment had the ability to fly, and this set of equipment was no exception.
[Explain the binding steps in detail.]
[Omniscient: First of all…]
With Omniscient Common Cause, it did not take him long to complete the binding of spell slots. It was a complicated structure that other mages below the Epic realm would need months to understand. He directly ignored the process. He did not need to understand the principle. He only needed to follow the steps of the omniscient solution. It was just like when others needed to think hard to solve a math problem, he directly copied the answer from Omniscient. Therefore, the speed of binding was not much slower than the producer personally entering the arena.
After the binding was completed, he took off his magic suit and casually waved his hand. The Epic suit automatically flew up from the table and onto his body. When he controlled the Epic suit, it was like riding a unicorn through a spiritual link. After he found the feeling, he could move unconsciously. When he was slightly familiar with it, he could maintain his toes ten centimeters off the ground and fly out of the treasure vault. The two women waiting outside were shocked when they saw him. At this moment, his body was covered in a layer of translucent light membrane. His entire person seemed mysterious and unpredictable. Now, he could even use his face to receive the battleship's main cannon (5e8J) without any harm.
"Gongyou, you've become so unfamiliar.”Luana said with a sense of inferiority. Born in this world, she understood the difference in status. She was so scared that she didn't dare to speak when she was talking to the Marquis's cousin.
"Mister Gongyou is so far away." The two most important people in Hilo's heart were Common Cause and Earth Mother. Now he was becoming more and more mysterious, which worried her.
"It's okay. Come over and kiss and hug.”Gong You said jokingly and led the two women behind a scenic spot not far away.
"Shame." Luana said, but she still threw herself at Gong You obediently.
"You're not serious." Hilo stepped forward obediently after scolding him. She was too short to stand on her tiptoes and reached out to wrap her arms around his neck.
He had changed the protective light film to a reaction activation type and increased the clarity, so Luana directly penetrated the light film and came into contact with his body. She even stuck her tongue in. How could he tolerate this? He immediately wanted to retaliate, but he was no match for the hundred-year-old martial arts on the tip of his tongue. He was beaten into a mess by the self-taught her.
After letting go of Luana in anger, he comforted Shiloh. Their tongues intertwined for a while before letting go of the defeated Luana. Although it was her first official kiss this morning, she had already become familiar with it in less than a day. This was all because she had enough practice opportunities. She was also serious and had an amazing learning ability.
After helping the two women regain their confidence, he held their waists and floated in the air for a while. The two women who were hugging him tightly were excited and happy. This feeling of flying with their own strength was different from riding an airship. It was very fascinating at first. It was not until the auction organizer sent someone to remind the three of them that the venue needed to be closed that they landed from the courtyard.
It was already close to midnight when he walked out of the venue. The accompanying employees of the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce were patiently waiting in front of the box carriage. Two of his trusted aides were left behind to drive the carriage back to the Church of Earth Mother, while the other employees were given paid leave. He was in a very good mood tonight.
When they returned to the temple, the three of them quietly entered from the side door. They did not wake up anyone except the guard who was on duty. After returning to the room, they let Luana put on the dragon scales and the gemstone bracelet that he had replaced. She seemed to love the dragon scales so much that he took the opportunity to give her both swords and shields. This time, Luana did not refuse. Perhaps it was because she knew that he would not be injured in the adventure without these equipment, so she accepted it. In the end, he even gave her the Epic Set. Aside from the Guardian Gem and the Ring of Regeneration, all the other equipment was given to the two girls. Shiloh received the Strength Bracelet and the Agility Bracelet.
With this, his combat power had risen from Quasi-Epic to Epic. Although he was only at the Low-Level Epic stage, he had already surpassed mortals. On the other hand, Luana's combat power had risen from an ordinary high-level Adventurer to a subtle state that surpassed a Gold-ranked Adventurer but was not yet at the Epic stage. This was almost the limit of combat power that could be accumulated by Rune Words. As for Hilo, he did not have many requirements. When necessary, he only needed to activate the Holy Artifact Ring and the Holy Wall Robe to protect himself. Its actual combat strength was just enough to kill an ordinary silver medal adventurer.
As it was inconvenient for the three of them to stay in the visitor's area of the temple, Hilo went back to her room alone after taking a shower. She did not dare to sleep with Gongyou in the temple, while Luana openly took him to the bathroom and had a good time. Fortunately, he had already activated the Barrier Stone to create a silent environment, so it did not affect the other people living in the temple. However, this made her very relaxed. Gongyou could not withstand it even with the Ring of Rebirth. In the end, he had to drink a few bottles of Energy Serum to not embarrass the man.
The two of them played all kinds of games without Shiloh knowing, but Shiloh already knew about the things between Gongyou and Luana, but she had to pretend not to know and not care, because only then would she not be embarrassed to continue to stay by his side. As long as he still loved her and left a place for her, as an orphan, she was already very happy.
.
On the morning of the 38th day, it was already bright outside the window. Gongyou, who had slept late last night, was woken up by the heavy pressure. When he opened his eyes, he saw Luana sitting naked on his waist.
"What are you doing?" Gong You asked in a confused tone. His brain was still not very clear after waking up.
"Morning exercise." Luana answered matter-of-factly. However, the morning exercises for the past two days were a little different.
"Is this the reason why you're riding on me?”Gong You said unhappily. Last night, he was tired until midnight and slept very late. He was still a little tired.
"Don't worry, I've activated the Barrier Stone.”Luana's body was already close to the limits of a mortal when she was in the secret plane. Although she was still far from reaching the Epic stage, she was already stronger than an average mid-level magical beast. Therefore, she did not feel tired even though she slept very late.
Gongyou wanted to refuse, but Luana was too big. It was not until 8:30 pm that Hilo could not help but knock on the barrier to save him from Luana's suppression. Hilo hugged him and gently massaged his temples. In the end, he even put his head on his knees and fed him the breakfast he brought.
When Hilo finished serving the servant, she looked at the empty Energy Serum on the bed sheet and became angry. She grabbed Luana and scolded her for overworking the servant, but Luana only replied with a smile and did not take it seriously. She was already addicted to love on the third day. The pleasure of deep contact with her lover had long lost her consciousness and beliefs. No morality was more important than him.
Hilo also realized that his preaching was not very effective, so he decided to watch him more closely in the future and try to reduce the chances of them being alone. In the past three days, he had spent more than six hours with Luana. Hilo was really worried about his health. There was a limit to taking Energy Serums frequently. Even with the help of the Regeneration Ring, he could not withstand the endless conquest.
Leaving Gongyou to rest in the bedroom, Hilo pulled Luana to the reception room of the temple. A butler of the Marquis 'family had been waiting for a long time. Although the Marquis' butler was a little dissatisfied with the male master Gongyou not showing up to meet the guests, his professionalism made him politely explain his purpose.
The first thing was that the misunderstanding between Gongyou and the Marquis 'cousin had been resolved after the bishop's mediation and the consent of the parties involved. The Marquis' family had given two magic books as a gift of friendship between the two parties. Of course, this was only an excuse to the outside world. In fact, the Lord had decided to admit defeat after learning that Gongyou had successfully bound with the Epic Set overnight. The second thing was the invitation to the Marquis 'family. The three of them were invited to attend the thirteenth birthday party and engagement party of the last daughter of the local lord's Marquis tomorrow afternoon.
Magic weapons could create temporary energy weapons. They were the weaker version of the church's miracle weapons of light. They were as strong as ordinary white equipment. Lime extraction could extract lime powder from rocks and soil. It was often used in some workshops, which was very convenient for workshops that needed lime powder in small quantities.
The spellbook and invitation were collected by the mistress, Hilo. She was nominally the common fiancée, so she barely fulfilled the conditions of the agent. After sending the butler away, she also donated 20 magic crystal coins (1.8 million RMB) to the Church on his behalf. This was what he had asked her to do before. After all, she could not use the name of the Church to intimidate others without showing any gratitude.
At half past ten in the morning, when he woke up for the second time, he found that Hilo was watching over him by the bed. She was reading a book that she had borrowed from the temple library. When she saw that he was awake, she quickly put down the book and helped him sit up. At this time, he had already alleviated the abnormal state of the valley under the effect of the Ring of Regeneration.
"Why are you the only one here? Where's Luana?”Gong You asked after stretching. He had basically recovered after just over an hour of recuperation.
"She is training with the monks in the backyard of the temple. Are you feeling better?”Hilo asked with concern. He was pale when she went into the bedroom to rescue Gongyou.
"I'm fine. I just didn't get enough sleep before.”Gong Yu did not try to be brave. His physical fatigue could be recovered through the Ring of Regeneration, and his mental fatigue had just been recovered through sleep.
After getting off the bed, he pulled Hilo over and kissed her. He only released her when her uneasiness had subsided. He held her on his knees and sat her on the edge of the bed. The two of them simply kissed each other in the bedroom. Since they had achieved their goal of coming to the Commercial Capital, the three of them had nothing important to do for the time being. There was no hurry to build a private server and perfect their private magic net.
Hilo told the public about the marquis 'invitation. He did not want to attend such a boring banquet, but Hilo said that she and Luana wanted to see what a noble banquet was like. So he agreed to accompany the two girls to the banquet. Anyway, it was only an afternoon at most, so he would accompany them to relax.
At noon, Luana came back to have lunch with the two of them. They had a harmonious conversation with the high priests in the dining hall. Almost all the clergymen praised him for donating a large sum of money in the morning, so the atmosphere at the table was very harmonious. Unfortunately, the higher-ups of the church were not eating in the dining hall. He could only thank the high priest later.
In the afternoon, the three of them went out shopping and went to the magic tool shop to get the magic crystal armband. Their main goal in the afternoon was to buy a batch of furniture. They also planned to move. In this world, the house renovation did not use stimulating chemicals, so the house he chose was barely habitable after an emergency cleaning. Previously, the staff of his Chamber of Commerce had done their best to renovate the house.
They finally finished moving before evening. This was the third time they had moved within a short period of time. The three of them went to the temple office to thank the priest and bid farewell before returning to their new home. It was fun to prepare dinner together in the kitchen like a newlywed couple. At this time, even Luana's deliberate disturbance made it even more interesting.
"Wait, Miss Luana, don't play with food.”Hilo said angrily to Luana, but Luana only put down the ingredients with a smile and continued to cause trouble while Hilo was cooking seriously.
"Ah, Mr. Gongyou, can you not touch my butt here?”Shiloh looked at Gongyou shyly and scolded him. However, he was washing vegetables with his hands in the basin. After shooting a warning glance at Luana, who was smiling evilly, he was too lazy to explain.
"Ah, I told you not to touch it now. Can you touch it at night?”Hilo was really angry this time. She hated it when people messed with her cooking, even when it was her favorite cause.
"It's Luana." Gong You could only helplessly explain when he saw that Hilo was really angry. He also felt that it was time to deal with that troublemaker.
" Ah, I'm sorry, Mr. Gongyou." Shiloh finally realized who had touched her butt. She was angry because she had wronged Common Cause. She scolded Luana," Miss Luana, go out and wait in the living room."”
"Don't leave me alone. I won't cause trouble anymore. I'll just watch from the side, okay?”Luana begged pitifully. Hilo nodded in a soft voice, and Luana's target was changed to Common Cause, which made him feel helpless.
After dinner, while Hilo was washing clothes in the bathroom, the two of them played in front of the newly bought full-length mirror. Halfway through, Hilo found out that they were playing in the mirror, and the two of them were scolded. Later, in order to prevent Luana from continuing to mess around, Hilo also followed the two into the bathroom to take a shower. At first, she covered her private parts and did not dare to look into Luana's eyes. In the end, she was teased by Luana, who was eager to play. This made Hilo even more embarrassed, but Luana was also watched more strictly by Luana. She had tried several times to break through Hilo's defenses and get in touch with him, but Hilo had stopped her. In the end, both of them were unhappy, and only he, who was lying in the big bathtub and feasting his eyes, was happy.
He finally had a good night's rest on his bed. With Hilo keeping an eye on Luana, he could safely link his mind to the Philosopher's Cornerstone without worrying about Luana's merciless consumption of his physical strength. However, this also caused him to be physically fine but mentally exhausted. In the middle of the night, Luana wanted to drag him to the bathroom, but Hilo, who was sleeping and hugging him tightly, found out. Therefore, he did not manage to do anything that night.
.
In the early hours of the 39th day, Luana got up early and went downstairs to the front yard for morning exercise. She and Hilo slept together until seven o'clock. The three of them spent the whole morning in sweet love. Even Luana temporarily forgot about the unhappy things from last night.
The three of them did not go out in the morning. They spent a peaceful time together in the living room. It was worth mentioning that every time Hilo went to the bathroom, he would pull Luana away with him, which increased the progress of building the private server by a lot. However, in the end, Luana still got the opportunity to be alone with Hilo twice a day. It seemed that the expected progress of the private server would be delayed.
Near noon, a subordinate of the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce delivered the banquet gift that he had instructed him to prepare yesterday. It was a dynamic oil painting. The characters in the painting would make different movements in the morning, noon, and night. However, although this painting was unique, it was not drawn by a famous master. Because if it was too expensive, it would be regarded as clingy, and if it was too cheap, it would be regarded as contempt. Therefore, the value was neither high nor low, and it was suitable as a gift. The dress that Luanna had custom-made in the City of Agriculture was also delivered by the subordinate.
The three of them changed into ordinary and expensive formal attire and took a carriage from the Chamber of Commerce. Because their new home was in the North District, they arrived in less than ten minutes. After the subordinate handed in the invitation, the carriage drove into the courtyard and stopped in front of the main building. When the three of them got off, the Marquis 'family naturally arranged for people to receive them.
The receptionist was a maid. Her job was similar to that of a housekeeper, and was usually held by the second daughter of a low-level noble. The maid was an ordinary person who was hired. There was still half an hour before the birthday party officially began, so she let the maid show the three of them around the courtyard.
The interior of the marquis 'mansion was like an independent town hidden in the midst of prosperity. Compared to the grandeur of the old capital's palace, it was more like a garden. There was a waterway in the courtyard that mimicked a river, and the front yard was filled with trimmed landscape plants. The two girls even chased and played in the shade of the trees for a while.
After walking around the courtyard, they realized that it was almost time. The three of them were about to enter the main building of the residence. From afar, they found that there was a magic seal jade shielding the inside. The foundation was even buried with a barrier base. Although it was not as exaggerated as the one under the old capital, it had consumed a lot of resources to set up this barrier. It seemed that the security here was very tight.
There were three types of nobility in the kingdom, namely, three levels and thirteen levels. The three levels referred to real nobles (feudal lords), honorary nobles (people who served the powerful), and life nobles (great contributions).
[Level Zero] Pope (God's spokesperson in the mortal world, continent level), Saint (Honorary Lord, God's apostle), social status equivalent to the Legendary Realm;
[Level 1] Emperor (ruling population of more than 50 million, big country level), Descendant of God (Honorary Lord, God's bloodline), social status equivalent to the Church's Chief Judge;
[Level 2] King (20 million people under his rule, national-level), Prince and Empress (honorary title, legal spouse of the emperor or king), social status equivalent to legendary combat strength;
[Level 3] Archdukes (Honorary Lords, Dukes who establish autonomous countries), Princes and Princes (Honorary Lords, people who have the right to inherit feudal countries), social status equivalent to the Church's archbishop;
[Level 4] Duke (5,000,000 people under his rule, Quasi-National Level), Kurfürst (Honorary Duke, Marquis with the right to inherit the royal family), social status equivalent to Epic Level;
[Level 5] Marquis (one million people under his rule, provincial level), Border Earl/Fang Earl (Honorary Duke, Earl with military power), social status equivalent to the Church Bishop;
[Level 6] Earl (200,000 people under his rule, mostly city-level), Young Master and Princess (Honorary Duke, descendants of the country's head without inheritance rights), social status equivalent to Epic combat power;
[Level 7] Viscount (50,000 people under his rule, City-level), Court Earl/Courtier (Honorary Lord, non-titled among the core ministers), social status equivalent to the Church's Assistant Bishop;
[Level Eight] Baron (10,000 people under his rule, town level), Prince (Honorary Lord, the child of a great noble with the right of inheritance), social status equivalent to the local priest of the church;
[Level 9] Knight (300 people under his rule, village level), Quasi-Baron (Honorary Baron, a person who is in charge of important positions without a title), social status equivalent to high-level adventurers and the Church's Great Priest;
[Level 10] Lord (50 people under his rule, street level), Quasi-Knight (Honorary Lord, non-titled person who has contributed to society), social status equivalent to middle-level adventurers and members of the Knight Order;
[Level 11] Citizens (citizens with registered occupations), farmers and craftsmen (people with real industries), soldiers with social status equivalent to low-level adventurers and real lords;
[Level 12] Commoners (people without tax records). Their social status is equivalent to the wandering villagers in the countryside and the unemployed people in the towns.
One to three were the heads of the country, four and five were the great nobles, six to eight were the upper nobles, and nine and ten were the lower nobles. In fact, according to the changes in the population of the territory, the sixth rank count could be divided into first rank count, second rank count, and third rank count.
.
Gong You's current social status was equivalent to the sixth rank. On the surface, Hilo and Luana were only at the tenth rank, the moustached man and Mars were at the eighth rank, the deputy commander of the knights was at the ninth rank, and the members of the knights were at the tenth rank. Of course, this was only a tacit rule among the nobles. For example, the Church had another set of status standards. In the eyes of the Church, Hilo's status was higher than that of a marquis. However, at today's banquet, even a fifth rank marquis would not underestimate Gong You. The other nobles with lower social status naturally did not dare to underestimate him.
Hilo and Luana held each other's arms. The moment the three of them entered the banquet hall, they attracted everyone's attention. The guests discussed the three of them, and those who did not know the three of them remembered them under the explanation of the surrounding people.
"That black-haired youth is the wielder of the Nation Protection Grade weapon.”
"The one with brown hair beside him is the main wife, and the other one with brown hair is the side wife.”
"What a pity. I originally wanted to recruit him as my son-in-law.”
"My youngest daughter has just come of age. Let's temporarily put him on the list of son-in-law candidates.”
"The main wife is a member of the Church. Do you want your daughter to be a side wife?”
"He alone can defeat the entire knight regiment. Our baron family is not as particular as you.”
"Anyway, we'll try to talk after the banquet begins.”
The three of them casually strolled around the banquet hall, looking at the scenery of the house or the standing dishes. Because the host had not yet entered, no one came to disturb the three of them.
At noon, a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes walked into the banquet hall from the corridor inside the building with a young girl in hand. The guests who were originally chatting enthusiastically quieted down after seeing this. The silence spread throughout the banquet hall like a virus. The three of them noticed that the surroundings had suddenly become quiet and followed the focus of everyone's gaze.
At this moment, the middle-aged man who seemed to be a Marquis had already led the girl to the center of the banquet hall. He first politely thanked the invited guests and then introduced the girl to the guests. Although most of the guests had already seen the girl before, they still greeted her as if they were meeting for the first time. It seemed that the girl who looked like a junior high school student was the star of today's banquet.
The three of them did not join in the fun. They had just fought with the Marquis 'relatives the day before yesterday. Although their relationship had eased, they did not want to take the initiative to climb up the social ladder. Today, they just watched the show in the corner.
After the dignitaries of the Capital of Commerce greeted each other, the next step was for the servants to carry a huge birthday cake. Then, the little girl was carried up by the Marquis and happily cut the cake together. However, in the end, none of the guests ate the cake. After the little birthday girl cut it, the servants moved it away. As expected, this was just a ceremony.
At this moment, another group of servants carried a large number of gift boxes of various sizes. These were birthday gifts from the guests. The gifts for the three of them were also mixed in. The staff of the Golden Boots Chamber of Commerce who had followed them earlier was responsible for handing them over to the butler. The little girl randomly chose a few gift boxes that were placed in special positions and opened them. She also thanked the guests with higher status as a formality.
After the rehearsed birthday party, the engagement ceremony was immediately followed. At first, the three of them thought that the engagement would be the little girl's brother or sister, but the marquis did not let the older child appear. Instead, he directly announced that the last daughter, who had just turned thirteen, would be the bride of the engagement. Then, the marquis said something to the butler, and after a while, the engaged man was brought into the banquet hall.
Gong You's eyelids twitched when he saw the farce in front of him. He didn't even have the mood to complain anymore. He saw that the engagement party was a boy who was less than ten years old. Even when he attended banquets, he carried a pitch-black greatsword that was taller than a person on his back. Such a conspicuous feature was one of the people who had fought on the street at the entrance of the Adventurers 'Guild on the first day the three of them came to the Capital of Commerce. It turned out that this boy had not been arrested and thrown into prison, but had been captured and brought to the wedding hall.
The boy looked confused. He followed the butler's instructions step by step and completed the engagement ceremony with the four-year-old girl. He observed that the black sword carrying the artificial personality on the boy's back was not sealed, but it did not object to the engagement. It seemed that it had been convinced by the marquis.
After the ceremony ended, the engaged couple were brought into the courtyard by the butler and maids to play. After the teenagers left, the adult banquet officially began. Soon, they were entangled by the nobles. Some nobles brought their daughters over to greet them and invited them to their homes as guests. He was very touched, but he declined politely. After the first noble left, a new noble replaced him. Then, with the same reason, he invited him to his house and introduced his family to him. The two women's faces had not been good since the nobles surrounded them. This was a cuckold in front of them and a poacher.
He declined all the invitations from the nobles, including the honorary nobles among the marquis 'retainers. For example, the eldest son of the marquis' aunt came to recommend his young daughter. There was also a noble family that did not have a son and strongly hoped that he could marry into the family and inherit the family. In short, there were all kinds of people looking for a son-in-law.
The reason why this happened was because the power of Common Cause had already transcended the constraints of the laws of this kingdom. To put it bluntly, even if he killed, robbed, or set fire, as long as there was no concrete evidence left behind, the rulers would have to turn a blind eye to it and not dare to pursue criminal responsibility. If it were him now, even if he had ten guts, he would not dare to come up and provoke him.
After dealing with the guests, the marquis, who was the host of the banquet, also came over to chat for a while. In the atmosphere of the banquet hall, both parties did not feel awkward. They roughly talked about the relationship between the ranks of adventurers and the ranks of the army. For example, low-level adventurers were equivalent to soldiers, mid-level adventurers were equivalent to knights, high-level adventurers were equivalent to commanders, and some of the more powerful gold and silver adventurers became life nobles before they retired.
There were also stories of epic, legendary, and demigods. For example, in the Empire in the northwest, a Legendary champion had summoned a meteor shower to destroy a city due to a personal conflict with his liege, killing hundreds of thousands of people on the spot. The emperor did not even dare to say a harsh word in front of his ministers, and even sent a diplomatic mission to apologize. The Legend was still living in a large floating castle, watching the world coldly from the sky.
The Four Legends of the world were even more powerful. They were the Great Explorer and Adventurer Guild's Chief President, the Ivory Tower Lord and Mage Guild's Chief President, the Floating City Lord and Mercenary Guild's Chief President, and the Magic Emperor and Alchemist Guild's Chief President. That's right, the four guilds were backed by Legendary powerhouses, which was why the guilds could cross the international borders and not be controlled by local rulers. Some branch presidents were even on equal footing with the great nobles.
However, there was a more powerful organization above the guild, and that was the church that was backed by the gods. If the emperor and the king violated the taboos of the church, they would still be dragged out by the church and burned to death. In short, if all the organizations were arranged according to the rights of the world, it was almost the Church> Guild> Congress (Royal Family)> Chamber of Commerce (Nobles)> People. This was a seemingly peaceful world, but it was a cruel world of theocracy> royal power> human rights.
The banquet lasted from noon until late in the evening. During this time, they saw the Marquis 'two cousins, the moustached man and Mars, among the guests. The moustached man immediately shrank his neck and hid in the inner room of the building when he saw the three of them. It was like a mouse meeting a cat. Whether the mouse could survive or not depended on the cat's mood at that time. Mars, on the other hand, turned around with a bad expression and went to chat with the other nobles in the distance. It was like a wolf seeing an elephant. The wolf could live because the elephant wanted to be a vegetarian, while the wolf pack needed to gather in large numbers to protect themselves.
The three of them left the Marquis's mansion and went straight home. After the banquet, they felt tired both physically and mentally. They ate something and went to the bathtub to take a bath. The second time they took a bath together, Shiloh was able to let go. Even if they accidentally touched her body, they could still be safe. After leaving the bathroom, Luana asked Shiloh to fulfill her promise. Then she pulled him back to the bedroom and left Shiloh alone in the living room to wait.
However, after reading for an hour, Hilo realized that something was wrong. The two of them had agreed on a number of times, but they had not agreed on a time. So, she hurriedly rushed upstairs into the bedroom, only to find that the empty bottles of Energy Serum were rolling all over the floor. Luana could only be forcefully pulled open after she finished the first batch under Hilo's supervision.
After that, Hilo immediately dragged the priest to take a bath. Luana was asked to stay in the bedroom alone to reflect on herself. Half an hour later, Luana realized that something was wrong. The two of them had been in the bathroom for too long, so she hurriedly rushed into the bathroom to arrest them. However, Hilo had already taken advantage of the opportunity to confess to him about the decision of the Church and her own selfishness. Then, he half-heartedly and logically connected two of the three holes.
The night was extremely playful. The two women fought and fought until they were tired. It was not until late at night that the three of them lay quietly in bed and hugged each other. In order to prevent Luana from stealing food, Hilo even asked him to hug him to sleep. Luana hugged his back like a cheetah lurking in the jungle, waiting for an opportunity to attack. What was even more tragic was that he still had to endure the fatigue of Wen Yu's arms and carry out the private clothing construction work that he had scheduled for today. He stayed up until he could not stand it anymore before he fell asleep.
