《Witcher: I Can Extract Everything》Chapter 44: Auction
Advertisement
The Treasure House had this kind of service. Female Apprentices like Sharman were specially trained and knew how to satisfy customers.
As she spoke, she raised her hand and reached out to Heath.
Heath calmly moved to the side and nimbly avoided her.
He said, "There's no need. If it's possible, just give me a book to read."
These female Apprentices had to serve at least dozens of people a month. To put it bluntly, he did not even know what they had packed or washed...
It was still the same thing. Although Heath did not mind letting go of his ego, he could not let go of his ego with just anyone. He did not dare to say how high his requirements were, but he still had to at least pay attention to hygiene...
Sharman nodded and stood up. "Okay. If you change your mind, you can call me anytime."
"Okay."
Sharman sent a book to Heath and then left. Heath sat on the sofa and began to read.
After waiting for about half an hour, the door opened again. Sharman carried a one-foot-long treasure chest into the room.
She placed the treasure chest on the coffee table and opened it. Inside was a scroll made of sheepskin. The isolation wax that prevented information from leaking was emitting a faint purple light.
Sharman held the scroll in both hands and handed it to Heath. "Hello, distinguished guest. This is your [Gods' Seal]."
Heath took the scroll, tore open the sealing wax, and took a look. After confirming that it was correct, he put the scroll into his interspatial ring.
This kind of high-end spell had a huge amount of information. It was better to go back and find a quiet environment to extract it. Anyway, he was not in a hurry.
Sharman then sent over a silver badge with a crown pattern. "This is a silver badge given by our Treasure House to our distinguished guests. With this badge, you can enter the market three times a month for free."
Heath nodded. "Okay."
Sharman then sent over a stone coin. "In addition, this is an auction coin worth 10 Magic Stones. You can use it to participate in the auction of our Treasure House for free."

Heath raised his eyebrows, picked up the coin, and asked, "Auction? When?"
Sharman said, "Every Wednesday afternoon, there will be a small-scale auction. In addition, we will hold large-scale auctions from time to time. You can tell us the address, and we will arrange for the Raven to inform you."
Heath said, "There's no need to trouble yourself. Just help me introduce it."
Hearing Heath's tone, he seemed to be interested in it, so she quickly said, "We have a large-scale auction this afternoon, and there will even be an official-level Wizard tool auction. Do you want to go and take a look?"
Heath's eyes lit up, and he said straightforwardly, "Of course."
When he was in the tower, he had heard of the auctions in the Wizard market. Before the goods entered the market, the market would first screen them, and some rare and precious items would not be put on the market, but would be specially reserved for the auction.
Now that there was such an opportunity, of course, he had to go and see it.
The smile on Sharman's face grew wider. "This way, please."
Then, Heath followed Sharman out of the hall.
After leaving the door, Sharman naturally leaned over and held Heath's right arm. A pair of plump... rabbits tightly attached to Heath's right arm.
She then held Heath's arm and walked all the way to the depths of the palace. After passing through a few corridors, they soon entered a unique place.
It looked like a theater. It was round and had two floors.
The lower floor was a hall. There were rows and rows of single seats. There were hundreds of them. At this moment, the hall was full of people. It looked quite crowded.
The upper floor was much more spacious. There were sofas and coffee tables arranged in every seat. It was like a reception room. Moreover, the seats were far away from each other. There were only about a dozen seats on the second floor.
There was no light in the entire venue. The light was very dim, making Heath unconsciously think of the movie theater he frequented in his previous life.

"Distinguished guest, do you have any special requirements for the seats?"
"Whatever. As long as the view is better."
"Okay."
After the two entered, Sharman brought Heath to the second floor. At this moment, seven or eight seats on the second floor had already been occupied. She chose a seat with a wide view and arranged for Heath to sit down.
Later, Heath found out that only distinguished customers who spent tens of thousands of Magic Stones could come up to the second floor.
"There's still a while before the auction starts. I'll prepare some refreshments for you. Please wait a moment."
"Okay."
Sharman left. Heath sat on his seat and looked around. This was the first time he had come to such an occasion. He felt that everything around him was very new.
"Hmm..." At this moment, heath suddenly heard a particularly obvious sound. A voice.
He subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of the voice. It was a sofa on the left front.
A young man was sitting on that sofa. At this time, a young girl in a similar outfit as Sharman was sitting with her legs crossed...
Although there was a skirt covering them, anyone with a sound mind could guess what they were doing...
Heath was speechless. 'No way, at least pay attention to the occasion, right?'
He felt that his classmates from the Shadow Tower were already licentious enough, but at least they would still put on a show on the surface. It would not go so far as to put on such a show in public...
But then again, in this dim environment, it was indeed a rather seductive desire. There was an inexplicable pleasure of stealing...
"Giggle." At this moment, a soft laugh sounded.
It was Sharman who had returned.
She placed the food and drinks in her hands on the coffee table, then turned her head to look at the sofa in front of her. She pursed her lips and smiled at Heath. "Then, has Your Excellency changed your mind?"
Heath retracted his gaze and shook his head. "No."
Sharman said with slight disappointment, "Then it's really a pity."
Sitting on the sofa, drinking fruit wine and eating roasted lizard legs, he waited quietly.
About half an hour later, a beam of light suddenly lit up on the stage below, and an old man walked onto the stage.
The eyes of the crowd all focused on the old man.
Standing still, the old man spoke in a loud voice, "Good afternoon, future Wizards of the Underdark Treesea. Welcome to my Treasure House auction house..."
"...Then, the auction officially begins!"
After a short opening speech, the old man cut to the point.
The old man first took out a bottle of magic potion. Through the transparent bottle, one could see that it was a colorful liquid. Upon closer inspection, the liquid was actually made up of countless tiny elemental particles, but it was too dense to look like a liquid.
The old man gave a simple introduction, "This is the 'Elemental Water'. I think I don't need to explain too much about its effects."
With just a simple sentence, the whole place instantly boiled.
Even Heath could not help but be moved.
Elemental Water was a magic potion that any Apprentice would not be unfamiliar with. This magic potion was made by official-level Wizards using many powerful materials to refine pure elements. It was specially prepared for Apprentices, and could greatly increase the strength of Apprentices.
There was no need to refine it, and there were no side effects. It could directly be poured into the mouth and consumed, which could bring about an increase in spiritual power. It was definitely a treasure during the Apprentice period.
All Apprentices who had not consumed this magic potion were eager for it.
Seeing that the mood was almost exaggerated, the old man took out a small hammer and gently knocked on the table mat. "The starting price is 5000 Magic Stones."
