Chapter 342
Looking at the courtesan who appeared, the people present instantly had their eyes brighten, and they began to discuss in low voices.
Most of the participants were men.
The appearance of this courtesan instantly caused a slight commotion, followed by a gasp of admiration.
This courtesan was dressed in Liyue's unique, complex, and gorgeous clothes, with butterflies embroidered on the lapels, colorful but not vulgar, her long hair draped behind her like a waterfall, a few nimble strands of hair dancing gently around her, as if telling stories of the past.
Her face was decorated with exquisite makeup, her eyes like autumn water, her lips like vermilion, every subtle expression able to tug at people's hearts.
She walked to the very front of the crowd, swept gently over every guest present, and then opened the auction with her soft and magnetic voice: "Respected guests, welcome to the Pearl Galley. Tonight belongs to us all. The auction begins now."
Next, she displayed the first auction item in her hand: a transparent crystal ball sealed with rotating Anemo power, emitting a faint glow, as if one could hear the whispers of the wind.
"Wind-Catcher Bottle?"
Seeing this thing, Lin Mo, sitting at the very top, instantly recognized it.
Wasn't this designed by scholars of the Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt? It was actually being auctioned here.
".~ This is a Wind-Catcher Bottle, different from the Wind-Catcher Bottle in Mondstadt."
At this time, the courtesan spoke slowly: "As everyone knows, the Anemo power contained in the Wind-Catcher Bottle will be condensed into so-called seeds; one can be released to form a wind field, helping adventurers pass through dangerous places, which is very helpful in the wild. If used well, it can even save your life."
"But this Wind-Catcher Bottle is different; it is hand-polished by a famous Liyue master, and inside is no longer a seed condensed from Anemo power, but an Anemo power source. Even if it is used up, it will not dissipate; instead, it can be replenished by absorbing Anemo power. And this released Anemo power, besides being able to blow away enemies, can also create a wind field. As long as it is not broken by powerful force, it can be used continuously; even using it as a family heirloom is possible."
As soon as the courtesan's words fell, there was an uproar below, and many people's eyes were flashing with excitement and longing.
"An improved Wind-Catcher Bottle?"
"Interesting; with this thing, I won't have to worry about being robbed or monsters when walking in the wild in the future."
"The Wind-Catcher Bottle in Mondstadt can only create a wind field, and it's gone after use; it seems a Wind-Catcher Bottle can only be used five times, and even then, it's priceless."
"I didn't expect Liyue to be able to improve this Wind-Catcher Bottle; good stuff. If used well, it is indeed a family heirloom."
One person after another exclaimed excitedly, and as everyone was speaking, the courtesan continued: "Our starting price is one million Mora, and each increment must not be less than one hundred thousand Mora. Please begin."
With the courtesan's announcement, the auction officially kicked off.
For a time, the bidding sounds came one after another, and the lively atmosphere on the Pearl Galley reached its peak.
In the following time, Lin Mo witnessed one treasure after another, things that were beyond Lin Mo's expectations.
Time passed quietly.
"Is there anything you're interested in?"
Yelan, sitting beside Lin Mo, suddenly chuckled: "If there is, you can bid for one; don't worry about the money, I'll pay for it, just consider it a gift from me."
"I don't need it."
Hearing Yelan's words, Lin Mo shook his head gently.
These things were good for adventurers or Vision holders and were very helpful, but for him, they were of no use.
Now, the abilities and power he possessed were enough to deal with most crises.
However, it was quite nice that Yelan could bid for something for him.
"What about Collei?"
Hearing Lin Mo's words, Yelan smiled and looked at Collei: "Is there anything you want? Don't be polite with me."
Yelan understood Lin Mo; since Lin Mo said he didn't need it, he definitely didn't need it.
Thinking of Lin Mo's Sword Flight Art and powerful ice-attribute power, Yelan was relieved.
"I, I don't need it either."
Hearing Yelan's words, Collei shook her head gently.
Although some of these things were very helpful to her, she didn't need them while being by Lin Mo's side.
She just wanted to accompany Lin Mo and make him happy.
Hearing Collei's words, Yelan shook her head and laughed.
She didn't expect to meet two people in a row today who didn't need auction items; this was a chance for a freebie, yet they didn't want it, which was somewhat beyond Yelan's expectations.
This treatment wasn't something ordinary people could enjoy; she hadn't spoken such generous words to outsiders before.
"Everyone, next is the final treasure."
At this time, the courtesan clapped her hands, and after signaling for someone to bring up a large rectangular box, she clapped her hands again and spoke slowly: "I know many of you came for this thing."
"It's here."
"The final divine artifact."
"I just don't know what it looks like; if it's a sword or a blade, that would be comfortable."
"I don't get it; the auction held by the Feiyun Commerce Guild and the Pearl Galley is actually auctioning this level of item; shouldn't they keep it for themselves?"
"Who knows? Anyway, winning this thing only has benefits and no drawbacks; I've seen many people who didn't bid, specifically coming for this."
Seeing this scene, one person after another had their eyes brighten, and they looked over immediately.
Although many people couldn't afford to bid, for...
