Capítulo 32: Making new friends
" 5 million? "
Julian spoke the words and laughed for a second before he reached his right hand out.
" You have a deal! I Will have The funds ready for you within a week. "
The clan head smiled, he knew all about the great auction in 7 days. 5 million Will become nothing to him soon.
" So how about a drink in celebration of our deal! "
Julian's eyes lit up and he smiled brightly.
" Brother Kim, That is the best idea I've heard all day. "
" I have some of my clans own craft ale, we call it Amogi ale, good name am i right! Here have a bottle. "
Julian caught the bottle and opened it right up, he smelled the ale then guzzled it down.
" This is indeed great Ale, have a bottle of my treasured golden dragon wine and some tasty mead. Oh and let's listen to some Rock and roll while we celebrate.
" Rock and roll?? "
" just drink and listen okay. Ted start the Rock and roll Playlist! "
* Life is a highway begins playing *
The Two business partners drank and drank for over an hour, Mr Kim got up from his seat and walked over to a incense burner and placed a strange blue power within before lighting it.
" I hope you like this rare Blue peyote powder Sir God emperor! It is the backbone of my clan. It has a slight affect on one's consciousness and can even boost Qi Absorption as well as make food taste even better! It is truly my clans pride and joy. "
Once he lit the burner he sat back down and breathed it in deeply before sighing.
" Take a look at this! "
Julian pulled a Blunt from his kill point store and summoned a small flame from his finger to light it. He took a deep puff and breathed in deep.
" Here, Take a hit of this Good Shit! "
although Sir kim was Slightly taken aback by the Words good and Shit put together he decided to trust in The emperors judgement. He took a Fat rip from the blunt and leaned back into his chair, The t.h.c. flooded Into his mind and he felt a indescribable feeling of relaxation.
" This Is amazing! What is it? "
Kim passed the Blunt back and Julian spoke as he hit it again.
" This is a Very healthy plant called Marijuana or Cannabis. When smoked it helps heal you and gives you a very pleasant high. It can be used as a calming medicine and so so much more. I plan to make it a Staple crop of my empire!
Julian and Kim wukon Partied the rest of the night, smoking and drinking all they could, Julian even felt a little bad for the maids becuase Sir Kim had a severe case of the munchies and ate like a starving Dragon!
....
Isvan City, Early Morning
Machine lord's Mansion
" Brother why must we take these silly names? I do not think " Destruction Lord" is a good name for me. "
The other 3 looked at him and laughed
" Its a great name, each of us will have a cool title like this, just think of the future, these names will become legendary. The Destruction Lord, The Creation Lord, The Energy lord and I The machine Lord. If we claim these titles now and prove our might to the empire than no one will be able to claim these titles in the future. I Had a long discussion with Sir Gold and he told me that soon titles like these would become highly contested prizes so I am taking the initiative for us all. "
The energy Lord had a jealous face and looked at the Destruction Lord. " If you don't like your title I'll trade you! The Destruction Lord sounds a lot better than the Energy Lord. "
" Hahaha no thanks, I may not like my title that much but it still beats your title. "
" Enough you guys, our titles are great! "
" Oh shut up! Your just saying that cause you both have such cool tiles, Creation Lord, Destruction Lord! I envy you too ass hats.
" Allright you 3 enough bickering, if you don't like your title then come up with one on your own and speak to me again. there are still many titles to claim. "
The energy Lord looked up at the machine lord and raised an eye brow.
" Well in that case why don't we copy the 5 high Lord's and call ourselves the 4 Machine lord's Of Isvan. I think this would be more fitting for us, What do you guys think? "
The Destruction Lord nodded and replied
" I won't lie I do like the name of that, and if The emperor finds a way to revive our fallen brother we can become the 5 Machine lord's Of Isvan and rival those High Lord guys. "
The creation Lord didn't speak he simply nodded at His words.
" Then it's settled! We will refer to ourselves as the 4 Machine lord's Of Isvan From this day forth! "
" 5 Machine lord's eh? copycats ay? "
The 4 men turned to look at man who entered the room and discovered it to be the The first Highlord of Isvan Sir Anthony baker.
" Why have you come here uninvited Sir Anthony? "
" I apologize for my intrusion but I have come here in hopes that I may receive some guidance on the path of cultivation. It's almost been two years since the founding of the empire and yet I have only made it to the 4th stage of soul Wandering. "
Garry leery The man who called himself The machine lord stood up from his chair and spoke up.
" The great Anthony Baker has visited us. I am honored. As for your question it is not a difficult one. last year we met a Old man who came to Isvan as a refugee. He applied for our mechanic program and in exchange for teaching him the ways of the machine he gave us a valuable cultivation manual. The Soul Lord Manual. "
Why Haven't you shared this information with anyone? Have you been keeping such a valuable thing to yourselves! "
" Calm down and listen Anthony. For 10 contribution points you can exchange for this at the Cultivation manual storage. In fact anyone in the government or the city can get access to it. It's a good manual but the reason it is so cheap and unused is becuase it requires high grade Natural soul stones. "
" What do you mean? "
" Exaclty what I said. The manual requires the practitioner to level their soul up to the psychic Expert rank and consolidate their yellow soul. Once they have done this the manual states that they will be able to Cultivate With ease up to the peak of the Ascension Realm. Ted Gave us access to the Natural Soul stone storage below The city so we have been progressing smoothly. "
Larry Wynac The man given the title of Destruction Lord pulled a Natural high grade soul stone out of his spiritual ring and tossed it to Anthony.
" this first one should get you started, if you want you can sit down and we can help you learn the manual and start. "
" Alright that sounds good, thank you for helping me. "
.....
Days passed by quickly and the Day of the Auction came. Over the past days Julian met with many family's, clans and sect representatives and made several expensive deals. His Battle with Ratliff was a shock to many in the Zavalla empire, Something even more shocking happend the day after the fight. City lord Ratliff Admitted he was utterly defeated by the Emperor of the Imperium of man. Ratliff even went as far as asking Julian to be his battle brother, And Julian Accepted.
3 men sat in the Top room Of the Auction house. The Amogi clan head on the left, City lord Ratliff on the right, And The God Emperor Of man in the center. The Auction house was slowly filling up and The three Were drinking wine and talking about current affairs.
" So what do you guys think will make me the most money in this auction. personally I think the cores will be worth the most but the peak sacred grade Spiritual weapon bundles are a good competitor. "
" how big were the bundles again? "
" I put 500 in each weapon bundle. they are all the same weapon. same grade and same material. a perfect set of 500 blades. "
Ratliff coughed out his wine upon hearing this and laughed
" are you serious! 500 perfect sacred grade Spiritual blades!! I Reckon that just one bundle will give all the cores up for auction tonight some fierce competition. "
" I agree with Ratliff your majesty, you do not know the rarity of such weapons. especially in the past year due to recent chaos tears across the empire. We as a nation, used to have a surplus of them but now more than half of all weapons below the earth grade have been corrupted by chaos Qi and are un-usable by humans. "
Julian, Ratliff and Mr Kim talked for hours. Soon the venue was filled with thousands of noisy people from various clans and sects across the zavalla empire and Imperium of Man.
" Looks like it is time to start. "
Julian waved to the auctioneer on stage and he began to move.
" Welcome everyone! I am the representative of the Imperium of man here tonight. As you all know my generous emperor has decided to sell off some of his most valuable items here tonight. We will first start off with the items deemed less valuable and make our way to the items you have all come her for. "
The auctioneer motioned to some men behind the stage and a beautiful girl in her twenties walked out holding a wooden case in her right hand. As she opened the case the auctioneer spoke.
" Our first item up for auction today is a 5 piece bundle of perfect grade 5 cores. each belonging to a different beast. The starting price is only 100,000 Hq. "
" 200,000! "
" make it 300,000 "
" I'll do 500,000 "
As the prices sky rocketed up, Julian thought more about his current situation. Unfortunately his system was evil so he had no direct way to level up without killing. If it weren't for his discovery back in isvan he would still be very confused on the whole matter. He figured that he would slowly level up with the help of his empire as every kill a citizen of his got helped him. At first this auction was a money scheme but now it's an influence scheme.
" The final bid for the bundle of 5 Perfect condition Rank 5 cores has been won at 1.2 million HQ to the rocknose Clan of wachaya city. Our next item up for auction will be 5 more Perfect condition grade 5 cores. All 5 cores come from different spitrual beasts as the first bundle. Starting price is once again 100,000 HQ "
" Your majesty, how many Rank 5 cores are you selling this auction? "
Julian finished his drink and looked at Mr Kim with a smirk. " I figured some one would have told you but then again I did knock you out right before I announced what I would be auctioning off. tonight I'm only selling 25 rank 5 cores. 12 rank 6 cores and 3 rank 7 cores. Also I didn't tell anyone but I'm also gonna sell off a rank 8 perfect condition Blue snake king and blue snake queen core bundle. "
The faces of the two men dropped and they fell silent watching the auction unfold. Ratliff wanted the core too but he knew he was far too poor to compete with the large clans and sects of the inner empire. Kim on the other hand was one of the large clans of the empire so he sent a message pigeon back to his clan to check how much money they have in reserve.
" Now that we have finished with all of the rank 5 cores we shall move on to the 12 perfect condition Rank 6 cores. The first core is a Highly sought after Hurricane tortoise Core. The starting price for this core is 1 million HQ "
" Everyone please allow me to win this core, my Master Taoist Wind claw is in desperate need of such a core. I will bid 5 million! I ask that no one else tries to compete with me. "
" Haha so we do have a party pooper after all. sit back and watch guys, I set up button on each Chair and in each room for a situation like this So others can still bid without their identity being revealed to hot heads like this. Now let's sit and see who takes advantage of this button first. "
10 seconds passed by and No one talked, The auctioneer was about to end it but suddenly stopped and hit his hammer to the desk. We have 6 million can we get to 7 million? "
This sudden change caused the man to explode with anger and he started ranting to all of the guests present.
" Do you all have no respect for my Master! You sneaky bastards! "
The man wanted to cause trouble but he felt a pair of eyes burning into his soul from a top room which caused him to sit down and ve quiet. The eyes belonged to none other than Julian who infused his killing intent and psychic force into his gaze.
The auction continued on and Julian forcefully calmed down any hotheads within the crowd.
" The First rank 6 core has been sold to the True wind Clan for 13 million HQ! We will continue with the last 11 cores. "
" Sold for 16 million! "
" Sold for 23 Million! "
The cores sold like hotcakes and soon all rank 6 cores had been sold.
The Crowd thought that it was time for the Rank 7 cores to be brought out but were suprised when a dozen men carried in trunks full of weapons.
" Before we start the final auction for the 3 rank 7 cores. Our emperor has decided to add 10 Bundles of 500 sacred grade Spiritual weapons to the auction. Each bundle will start at 1 million HQ. Begin bidding. "
" 10 million! "
" 11 Million! "
" 12 million "
" 15 million! "
" 20 million! "
Julian smiled as he listened to the frantic calls of his customers. 500 sacred weapons were worth so much to everyone else but to him they were like pebbles and rocks in a mountian range. During the past week he had produced more than 100x what he was selling here. However he knew that if he released too much of his products to the outside world the price would decrease. A mere 5000 weapons would serve as a grand advertisement that he has a large amount of sacred grade weapons. this way he could privately sell weapons to anyone that came knocking.
[ Alert! Emergency Quest! ]
The Dark Trinity, The three leaders of the Zavalla empires Demonic sects have arrived at the front gate of the Auction house.
Kill all 3 leaders and allow the auction to continue uninterrupted.
Rewards: The Dark rings Of moshgaltin
" I'll be back gentlemen. I have some urgent business to attend to. "
His sudden departure was a supirse to the two men sitting besides him but hearing his words they relaxed back down and watched the auction.
