As those words left John Collin's mouth, the entire hall became silent. Moments later, one after another, everyone's gazes turned toward Theo Murphy's pale face, excited at the calamity that befell him.
"Haha, 100,000 gold coins for two bottles of Elixir Pills .. This guy is really rich!."Seeing Theo Murphy's claustrophobic face, Edward lowered his head in an attempt to hide his mischievous smile and muttered.
Looking at the reveling Edward, Violet smiled and, softly laughing, she said."Normally, a second rank pill would have a market value of at most 30,000 gold. The Elixir Pill was a magic medicine capable of increasing the training speed to a Fighter Elite and was relatively rare, so its price had to be much higher than a second rank pill. However ... use 100,000 gold to buy it, this Theo Murphy is really serious “boros”."
Edward laughed as he nodded in agreement. She licked her lips in desire before she smiled and said."If a bottle of second-grade Elixir Pill could sell for tens of thousands of gold, wouldn't this mean that such a great alchemist would be able to swim in gold?."
"Alchemy is the richest profession on the continent, this is a fact, every Alchemist has a huge amount of property."Violet smiled as she nodded her head. Turning his gaze to the Elixirs Pill on stage, he continued."When the Alchemist rank rose, they did not auction their products often. Instead they prefer to barter, because money is no longer of value to them …"
"Barter?."Edward's brows were encouraging and realized that he was gaining a bit of insight into the Alchemist.
"Yes, they use things like Battle Techniques, Spirit Methods, rare alchemy ingredients or high-level Monster Cores to trade for such pills.” The corner of her reddish lips tilted upwards, forming a smile as Violet continued her lecture."As a result, it is often said that Alchemists are the most feared profession on the continent. Everyone dreams of becoming an alchemist but that dream is often shattered by harsh and unattainable requirements."
Seeing the somewhat regretful Violet, Edward rubbed his nose, grateful that he had a system.
Deciding not to continue the conversation, Edward turned his gaze toward Theo Murphy's pale face.
Similarly, Theo Murphy was startled by the words of John Collin, he looked foolishly at John Collin who easily succumbed to the bidding war as the corner of his eyes twitched in disbelief. It felt like half a day had passed before finally coming to her senses. Theo Murphy cursed in a hoarse tone."Bastard, you're cheating on me again! It's all acting!."
"Hehe, aren't you trying to do the same thing, except that lately your mind has been a little distracted and your acting, it's too fake."John Collin laughed out loud, his tone full of ridicule.
"Well, good, very good, very good, the best, John Collin, I, Theo Murphy will remember those words!."Theo Murphy continued to inhale a few breaths in anger, his gaze cold and venomous.
John Collin ignored his threat, with a final sneer he turned to face Yolanda and said."Miss Yolanda, let's start the final auction."
Nodding her head, Yolanda smiled while maintaining her impartial expression. But inside, he felt dizzy with laughter at this turn of events. This auction had surpassed his wildest expectations and better profits, with this, the mysterious young Alchemist would have a favorable impression of the Primary Trading House.
Giving a comforting smile towards Theo Murphy's pale face, Yolanda once again bowed to pick up the last two bottles of the Elixir Pill. Completing her red lips with a dazzling smile, she announced."Ladies and gentlemen, this is the last bottle of potion, too, the initial offer is 30,000."
Upon seeing the last bottle of potion, Harold who was around John Collin trembled and hurriedly looked at John Collin with clear intentions.
Calmly sitting in his chair, John Collin paid no attention to the signals of the old man. Instead his gaze revolved around the auction house, sweeping his gaze around the full hall before finally announcing in a cold tone."50 000."
In another corner, Rolan Hopkins stared at the quiet John Collin. By furrowing his brows and banging his fingers against the back of his hand, Ronal Hopkins' eyes faintly flickered in a revelation movement. For a moment, he faintly smiled and said."55,000."
The three great clans of Javes City had a strange relationship, each wanting to consume the other two businesses, yet each was afraid to act against the other clans, because a neutral clan would benefit from them doing so. Yet even if two of them join hands, they cannot avoid suspecting their ‘pair’. Thus, unless they were confident of completely wiping out one party, the three parties could only continue the complicated stalemate and stick to the rules formed between them.
Each of the three great clans had a grudge, each unable to bear seeing the other. Although before, Ronal Hopkins had mocked Theo Murphy and now that John Collin was bidding, Ronal Hopkins was more than willing to compete with John Collin so that the Collin clan would lose a little more money.
Ronal Hopkins' offer did not make John Collin face a change in expression. With a glance, John Collin exclaimed."65,000."
65,000 was a bit too much for the regular market price for the Elixir Pill but John Collin also knew deep down that in the fight between the three clans, there was a huge amount of money for the Elixir Pill, it is impossible to buy Elixir Pills at a low or even fair price.
"Hehe, Clan Leader Collin is really amazing but I'm afraid of being tricked by you. I already have the Elixir Pill, so I'll give this to you."After John Collin's offer, Ronal Hopkins began to hesitate. It seemed that after Theo Murphy's great loss, he had even become more cautious.
John Collin looked at Ronal Hopkins and relaxed in his chair while laughing. That smile, or whatever Ronal Hopkins was showing on his face was definitely not what the man felt. Regardless, John Collin was still blabbering afterwards."Damn it, I have to pay 10,000 extra. This bastard is of no use."
Hearing those words, Edward thought it was funny. In a battle like this, was there a good man? If the other party wasn't afraid of ending up in trouble like Theo Murphy, he would definitely continue to raise the bid even more before finally letting the matter fall.
Touching his fingers, Edward cast his gaze on the stage at Yolanda who had just dropped a small hammer, signaling the end of the auction. Inwardly, he heaved a sigh of relief, this amount of money would be enough for a period of time. Now, all that was left was the alchemy ingredients and to refine the Cooler Pill…
"Soon, I will be able to suppress the dragon bloodline and increase my spirit cultivation again!."
Edward licked his lips and let out a long sigh, the first obstacle in his training journey will be overcome soon!
