章節 171: Chapter 171: Auction of Blood Soul Banyan Demon Seeds, Snake Man Hiding in the City!
"What about this seed?"
Zhang Chenran gave up the idea of auctioning the Holy Marrow of Tianyan and took out the seed of the Blood Soul Banyan Demon and placed it on the appraisal table.
Feeling the scent of the seeds, the appraiser stood there in a daze.
"Jun, a plant species with monarch-level bloodline?"
The appraiser's eyes changed completely when he looked at Zhang Chenran.
If the previous Holy Marrow of Heavenly Flame was an accident, then this plant species with monarch-level bloodline could not be explained by luck.
For a monarch-level plant-type demon, only the first seed born has a bloodline with the same potential.
In other words, this is no different from a cub with the highest demon bloodline!
Plant monsters will protect their seeds. If you want to obtain their seeds, you have to kill them.
This seed has no signs of growth yet, so this is the best time to cultivate it.
It is extremely valuable in the eyes of summoners and some plant mages!
"I want to auction this seed, what's the starting price?" Zhang Chenran asked again.
After the appraisal, the appraiser responded:
"One billion! Judging from the bloodline of this plant demon seed, the transaction price will not be less than 2 billion!"
When this Blood Soul Banyan Demon seed is cultivated to its peak stage, it can definitely reach the level of an orthodox monarch!
However, if one wants to cultivate such a monarch-level plant monster, it will require even more resources.
Two billion is the value of the seeds themselves. If there are big customers competing for them, the price will definitely be more than that!
...…
After leaving the appraisal room, Zhang Chenran took Jiang Yinyun into the auction hall.
The auction hall was already half full.
It would definitely not be so lively in the past, unless there were some treasures worth everyone fighting for.
Zhang Chenran was not surprised by this and was secretly delighted.
The news of the auction of the Blood Soul Banyan Demon Seeds was only released for about a few hours.
It is normal to attract so many powerful people in the capital of Australia.
The seeds of the Blood Soul Banyan Demon were the finale of the auction, and the previous auction items were all at least valuable treasures.
However, Zhang Chenran was not interested in those things.
After waiting for several auction items, he finally got what he wanted.
Soul-nourishing Spiritual Source Honey!
It can nourish and strengthen the soul to a small extent, and it also has a significant effect on improving mental strength. The starting price is 350 million!
There were not many people bidding for this item, and Zhang Chenran bought it for 800 million yuan.
The appraiser of this auction item secretly told him that it had an effect similar to that of a mind stone in enhancing mental strength.
Although the degree of improvement is far different from that of the Mind Stone, it can play a key role when breaking through the spiritual realm!
After auctioning off the Soul Nourishing Spiritual Source Honey, he quietly waited for the finale, the Blood Soul Banyan Demon Seed.
Finally, the thing that everyone had been waiting for for a long time appeared on the auction table.
The auctioneer shouted loudly,
"The last lot is also the highlight of this auction. It is a plant demon seed with the blood of an orthodox monarch. The starting price is one billion!"
As soon as the words came out, everyone rushed to bid for it.
The mages present came from different forces, including the Magic Association, the Hunter Alliance, the Magic Family, and the Military Mages
. In the end, the seeds of the Blood Soul Banyan Demon were bought by a super-class hunter mage for 2.4 billion.
"Twenty four hundred million, four hundred million more than expected." Zhang Chenran muttered softly, with the corners of his mouth slightly rising.
Leave the auction room.
Jiang Yinyun couldn't help but ask:
"Chen Ran, you didn't take the monarch-level bloodline plant seed to auction, did you?"
She had made some guesses when she saw Zhang Chenran's expression after he learned the transaction price of the Blood Soul Banyan Demon Seeds.
"Yes." Zhang Chenran smiled at her and did not hide it.
Jiang Yinyun didn't ask about the origin of the seeds. She pursed her lips and blushed slightly:
"Chen Ran, I, I want to buy clothes."
"Okay, the ones I saw on the road have pretty good designs."
"No, not that kind of clothes!"
Jiang Yinyun lowered her voice a bit and her face turned even redder.
Hearing this, Zhang Chenran understood what she meant and looked at her with a strange expression.
"I, I'm just afraid that if I buy it secretly you won't like it!" she explained in a low voice.
"I like whatever you wear." Zhang Chenran smiled evilly and said:
"Let's go."
Jiang Yinyun heaved a sigh of relief, the blush on her pretty face slowly fading away
...
The two searched for a while and came to a street with fewer people.
There is a store on the street with a very eye-catching doorplate.
Master Ling's Youthful Lifestyle Museum!
Before entering the store, Jiang Yinyun began to back out just by seeing the styles from outside the door.
She hugged Zhang Chenran's arm and couldn't help but say:
"Chen Ran, how about we just..."
"Now that you're here, how can you just leave like this?" Zhang Chenran couldn't help but laugh when he saw her shy look.
However, this was also his first time visiting such a store.
Although his facial expression was calm, he was still very embarrassed inside.
Just as the two were about to walk into the store, they saw a familiar figure sneaking out of the store.
When they saw that person, Zhang Chenran and Jiang Yinyun were stunned.
Zhao Manyan paused when he saw them.
Immediately, he put his index finger on his lips with a nervous look, signaling the two not to speak.
"follow me!"
Zhao Manyan lowered his voice very low, as if he was afraid of being discovered by some scary monster.
The two followed him to a nearby alley and hid there.
"What's wrong with you?" Zhang Chenran asked in surprise.
Zhao Manyan swallowed his saliva, thought for a while, and explained,
"I went there after I separated from Ai Jiangtu and the others. This is not important. What's important is that there is something in that store that eats people!"
"eat human?"
"While the shop owner was changing his clothes, I noticed something was wrong and found a secret room at the back of the shop. There were many dead bodies there. Their brains and hearts were gone!"
Zhao Man slowed down his panic and continued:
"Not only that, there are several strange creatures in that secret room. They have human bodies, but their tongues are very long and separate. There are scales on their bodies. I saw them eating the heart with my own eyes!"
Zhang Chenran and Jiang Yinyun looked at each other, and the former asked,
"Is it a demon disguised as a human, hiding in the city and eating people?"
Zhao Manyan nodded:
"That should be the case. When they disguised themselves as humans, they didn't even have the slightest demonic aura.
But the man-eating monsters in the secret room all had the aura of a general, so I didn't dare to alert them.
If I stayed a little longer, I would probably become their food.
Alas, the boss lady is so beautiful, how could this happen?"
"Stop!" Zhang Chenran interrupted him and said:
"If they were demons disguised as humans, they wouldn't all be gathered together.
In other words, this area should only have the few in "Master Ling's Youth Life Museum."
Hearing this, Zhao Manyan also came to his senses and nodded in agreement.
"Without further delay, let's go and inform the Magic Association."
Just as Zhao Manyan was about to walk towards the Magic Association's defense line, he was pulled back by Zhang Chenran.
"Notify the magic association. Aren't we here to gain experience and slay demons?"
"Yes, we can solve it ourselves!" Zhao Manyan said this inexplicably.
"Old Zhao, you are already a high-level wizard. Even if you haven't mastered high-level magic, you shouldn't be afraid of a few generals, right? Look how scared you are." Zhang Chenran said.
"Yeah, why should I be afraid of a few little warriors?"
Zhao Manyan did not refute, but scratched his head with a puzzled look.
They are obviously just a few warrior demons, why is he so scared?
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and follow me!"
Zhang Chenran's voice, which was originally very close to him, now came from more than ten meters away.
Zhao Manyan was startled and looked up. Zhang Chenran and Jiang Yinyun were already more than ten meters away.
Is there something wrong with my perception? Why can't I even detect the presence of these two people leaving?
He looked around and then trotted after the two of them:
"I'm coming!"
...…
Zhao Manyan, who realized it belatedly, looked at the two of them, as if he had caught them cheating:
"That's not right? Why are you two in a place like this?"
After asking this question, the answer instantly popped into his mind.
What else can you do in Qingqu Store?
I didn't expect that these two people who usually look quite serious would be like this!
But it's normal to think about it. Who doesn't like to seek novelty and excitement?
Hearing this, Zhang Chenran looked embarrassed, and Jiang Yinyun's pretty face turned red.
"These things are not important, let's kill the demon first"
Zhang Chenran was halfway through his words when he saw a dozen mages wearing the uniforms of the Canberra Magic Association not far away.
There were traces of fighting all around, and four corpses.
Seeing the three people, one of the mages gave an order, and more than a dozen mages rushed up at an extremely fast speed and surrounded them.
"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! We are mages!"
Zhao Manyan quickly drew a divine shield to prove his innocence.
Hearing that Zhao Manyan was speaking in Interlingua, the high-level mage also spoke in Interlingua in a deep voice:
"Some mages assimilated by snake people can also cast spells. Let me see your hands!"
In order to avoid trouble, the three of them did as they were told.
The high-level wizard took a look at the hands of the three men and waved his hand to signal his subordinates to let down their guard.
"Three friends from other countries, snake people are very active in this area. I am sorry for offending you just now. My name is Patul!" said the high-level wizard.
Patul was a high-level wizard, so he could naturally sense the level of cultivation of these three people.
Especially the black-haired young man, who gave him a feeling of being unfathomable and invincible.
"It's okay, it's okay. We were just about to kill those monsters, but we didn't expect you to take action first."
Zhao Manyan pointed at the four corpses and asked, "Are those four demons snake people?"
"Not exactly. They are a subspecies of snakemen, not real snakemen. Snakemen are creatures that are created when ordinary people or wizards eat snakemen's flesh. Pure-blooded snakemen are better at disguising themselves than them!"
Patul paused and explained:
"If you want to distinguish between humans and snake people, just look at whether there is a white crescent on the fingernail. If not, it is a snake person!"
Hearing this, the three of them suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Patul wanted to see their hands just now.
"Are there many monsters like this in the city?" Zhang Chenran asked.
Patul nodded:
"Not only in Canberra, but also in other cities, there are many snake people, but Canberra is the place where snake people appear most frequently."
By this time, Patul's men had already dealt with the four bodies of the snake-men subspecies.
"Three of you, we still have a mission to accomplish. Please be careful in this city. Even high-level mages can be easily fooled by the disguise of snakemen!"
After Patul finished speaking, he withdrew with his men.
Except for Patul, the rest of the team from the Magic Association are the best in the mid-level field.
No wonder the four general-level snakemen subspecies were dealt with so quickly.
"Old Zhao, you should learn your lesson. You might have had some unclear dealings with the demons one day." Zhang Chenran advised earnestly.
"Tsk! So what if she's a foreigner? As long as she doesn't eat you and is so beautiful and willing to give herself to you, will you let her go?" Zhao Manyan said unhappily.
Hearing this, Zhang Chenran's face froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly and uncontrollably.
"Zhao Manyan, are you sure you saw those snake people in the 'Master Ling's Lifestyle Store'?" Jiang Yinyun asked, looking at the connected shops.
Among those stores, only one clothing store and a nearby food store that was affected showed signs of fighting.
However, the "Master Ling Youth Life Museum" was not damaged at all!
"Of course, I remember it clearly!"
After Zhao Manyan finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at the shops, saying in surprise:
"Eh? They arrested the snake man in the clothing store, so they don't care about the snake man in 'Master Ling's Youth Life Center'?"
"No matter how rampant the snake people are, they shouldn't be so rampant as to open two stores so close to each other, right?" Jiang Yinyun looked at Zhang Chenran.
The latter pinched his slightly stiff face, took a deep breath and said,
"Let's go and take a look!"
The three of them stepped into "Master Ling's Youth Life Museum", which contained various styles that were not suitable for children.
But he couldn't find the beautiful lady boss that Zhao Manyan mentioned.
"Old Zhao, are you mentally stable? The store employees all said that the lady boss didn't come today and they don't know you." Zhang Chenran couldn't help but say.
"Impossible!" Zhao Manyan refused loudly:
"Let's not talk about whether the boss lady is here or not. You saw me running out of the store just now. How could they not recognize me?"
Zhang Chenran did not respond to him, but fell into deep thought.
Although the statements of the shop assistants were consistent, they were full of loopholes when compared with what happened to Zhao Manyan.
"Old Zhao, I don't think things are that simple." Zhang Chenran said.
"Nonsense, you still need to tell me that!"
Zhao Manyan, as a person involved, has a deep understanding of this.
Zhang Chenran shook his head and said seriously,
"It's not a snake man. I think there's something wrong with you too."
Zhao Manyan was stunned for a moment, his voice trembling slightly: "Chen, don't scare me!"
Zhang Chenran's analysis:
"If there's something wrong with the store clerks, they're either snake people or controlled by snake people.
But you also saw that the snake man was killed by the people from the Magic Association. When the caster died, the spell on the person being cast would be lifted.
But look at them, they keep saying the same thing, and their confused eyes and true inner thoughts can't be disguised. Excluding this point, then there is something wrong with you!"
"I, what's my problem?"
Zhao Manyan swallowed his saliva, feeling very nervous.
"Maybe you're crazy about women!" Zhang Chenran said with certainty.
Seeing his serious yet smiling expression, Zhao Manyan's face fell:
"Get lost! What I, Zhao Manyan, don't lack the most is women!"
At this time, Jiang Yinyun walked out of the store with a red face and head lowered.
She pushed Zhang Chenran and gestured to the bag in her hand.
Under Zhao Manyan's cannibalistic gaze, Zhang Chenran put the bag back into his personal space with an expressionless face
