Chapter 372 0 Yuan Purchase
Moreover, this time the statue is not in reverse position, but placed upright, with beautiful lilies of the valley planted near it, emitting starlight.
Could it be——
"What kind of ceremony is this?" Pasha's black horns blocked Lilith's way, and she was curious about why the two people were in this posture.
"Ahaha, this is——"
Lilith laughed and tried to stand up straight, but she felt the hair on her neck fluttering in the breeze, and the veins near her temples throbbed for no apparent reason. The noise around her was instantly weakened, and she turned her head abruptly -
The pedestrians on the road were still casting inquiring glances at these foreigners as before, but... not this! She just felt a gaze that was like a thorn in her back.
"What's wrong?" Ian walked up to her side.
Lilith looked carefully at the dark shadows in the corner again, but still found nothing. She shook her head and said, "Nothing."
"This is not a good place to have fun, we'd better leave quickly." Ian pulled up Lucas, who was unable to straighten his back, and reminded the two of their business.
"But this isn't——?" Lucas looked confused. Did he make a wrong judgment? This wasn't the god of the elves? Otherwise, how could it appear in a place like Mulete, where the Dark Moon Goddess was revered.
A scream came from not far away. Lilith turned her head quickly. It was Pasha. She was being held upside down by her feet in the hands of a dark-skinned man as tall and strong as a mountain.
“Tsk, isn’t this the puppy raised by the bald guy on the second floor? This is not a place for you trash, get out!” The burly man stood at the door of the largest gate on the corner of the street, picked up the tiefling’s feet, swung it, and threw it out with a look of disgust. The others on the side laughed when they saw this.
Lilith rushed over and stretched out her hands, barely catching the tiefling, glaring at the man, "Then whose dog are you?"
The man didn't care about Lilith's words at all. He took a bite of the raw mushroom in his hand and ate it with a crunch like a fruit. He just watched Lilith and the others laughing with ambiguous expressions.
"This is Lady Minnian's guest."
Pasha was not as angry as Lilith, and seemed to be used to being ridiculed by others. "They want to buy back what they sent before—"
"You must be joking." The man interrupted Pasha impatiently before she could finish her words. "I told you, idiots who don't know the rules, don't deserve to come to a place like this!"
He pointed his thumb at the brightly lit door behind him. Taking advantage of the gaps between people coming in and out, Lilith caught a glimpse of the brightly dressed men and women inside. They did not look like they were in a dark underground place at all. Instead, they looked like they were attending a high-class party in the royal capital.
"This is the largest and most reputable auction house in Shadow Rock! In fact, it's the best auction house in the entire country of Mulet. We never have the rule of withdrawing an auction here. If you want something, prepare the money. If you don't have money--" The bald man looked at Lilith, "Then find a way to earn it!"
That look made Lilith extremely uncomfortable. She subconsciously touched her waist, but it was empty, which made her even more upset.
"I have to know when the things I want will go on sale." Lilith said coldly.
"Tsk--" The bald man sneered and turned back to signal his younger brother beside him. The other party understood what he meant and ran into the room and took out a booklet for Lilith.
Lilith immediately began to look through the book. The book was very delicately made, with detailed illustrations and introductions. There were many rare treasures that Lilith would be amazed at, as well as some potions made from Mulete's specialties, magic props, and some rare magical beasts. If the timing was not wrong, she would really like to come here and buy a few of them, but -
"Where's the sword?" Lilith frowned and looked up at the man in front of her who was chewing raw mushrooms again. The mushrooms seemed to have some hallucinogenic effect. She saw that the man had a dazed look, but she still suppressed her disgust and asked, "The sword sent by Madam Minian, made of cold steel from Dragonfang Castle."
"What cold steel?" The other party seemed to be unable to answer her. The younger brother who helped the man pass the auction brochure to him said, "How can that kind of thing be compared with the treasures in the brochure? It's just a warm-up decoration. It will be put in the brochure when the occasion is right. Come back in a few months!"
"Ah?!" Pasha and Lucas screamed in unison.
Pasha immediately turned around and looked at Lilith. "I won't waste a few months with you. Pay me the commission now."
The little tiefling's incredible pragmatism left Lilith speechless.
"Okay—" Lilith nodded after a long silence.
"Before that, your last job is to help us find the best hotel."
………………
"Lilith, I think you need to calm down." Ian watched Lilith put a few gold coins into the tiefling's hands, and then closed the door and advised after she happily sent him away.
"That's right. I think you've lost your mind a little." Lucas lay on the table, studying the exotic tea sets with great interest. Many of the products here were painted with star and moon symbols, and they were obviously products of the country of Mulet.
"No matter how special that sword is, it's not worth your spending a lot of money to buy it back, right? What's more, we don't have the time to waste so much time here. Everyone is still waiting outside!" He looked up at Lilith who was standing by the window.
Although tieflings only care about money, they will do their job if they are paid. Their hotel is located in the central area just as Lilith requested. Looking out from the window, Lilith can see half of the door of the auction hall.
"It's indeed not worth it." Lilith hid behind the curtains, intently watching the people coming and going in the auction hall and responded randomly with a perfunctory tone.
"Tsk, she still won't give up." Lucas shrugged helplessly at Ian. Before the latter could say anything, they heard a rustling sound. They both turned around and saw that Lilith had already drawn the curtains and left the window, and was throwing out all the miscellaneous things stored in her space ring.
"It's time to eat?" Lucas even took advantage of the chaos to get a pot of hot beef brisket stewed in red wine. Now he was holding the pot with a confused look on his face.
"That's right." Lilith's eyes were as bright as if they were burning with fire, "We're going to have a big one!"
She had already lowered her bottom line step by step and was mentally prepared to spend money to buy back the stolen goods. She didn't expect that this ghost place would become more and more outrageous. Even a clay figure has a temper!
Darkened, what are you buying! It was originally hers, she wants to take it back herself!
With another flick of the ring, a pile of seeds appeared in Lilith's hand.
"You're not going to steal..." Ian lost control of his expression for the first time, "Lilith! Stealing is a serious crime that will be punished by the gods--"
"Ahem, what do you mean by stealing?" Lilith immediately denied it righteously, "I just got some inspiration from Pasha!"
"——Well, have you ever heard of zero-dollar shopping?"
