C26 Poor

Morna Garland directly took out a magic crystal the size of a fist from her inventory. In an instant, a powerful magic swept through the entire hall. Everyone in the hall paused. Wiley opened his eyes wide. What kind of concept was a magic crystal the size of a fist? Under the passivity of connoisseurship, he could see that the purity was 99%.

Paul's eyes widened. He thought the magic crystal Morna Garland had given them was big enough. He didn't expect her to take out another one the size of a fist.

"Come in with me!" Wiley said urgently. If something happened in the hall, it would not be good if there was someone who was interested.

Morna Garland understood what Wiley meant. If they were in the hall, something might happen.

The three of them moved to a room with a barrier. Only then did Wiley heave a sigh of relief and said happily, "Can you take it out for me to see again?"

Morna Garland wasn't worried that Wiley would cheat. After all, what else could he do in such a big auction? A mere appraiser wouldn't have much combat ability.

Wiley held the magic crystal in his hands. With his connoisseurship, he could feel the strong magic nourishing her. In just a short moment, he could feel his magic getting warm. Magic crystals were too powerful and rare.

"I'm sorry, I lost my composure." Wiley regained his elegance, put the magic crystal on a tray at the side, and used a defensive barrier to protect it.

"May I ask how much this magic crystal of mine can be sold for at least?" Morna Garland was still worried about the price. She had to sell it for a good price. Previously, she said 200 gold coins for Paul and the other two was also an estimate. Logically speaking, the market price might be even higher.

"A fist size like this, and its purity has reached 99%. The starting price is at least 3000 gold coins, so please believe us. But I want to charge you 10%. I hope you understand." Wiley said.

"Alright!" Morna Garland nodded. Three thousand gold coins! She felt that she was going to be rich. She still had hundreds of magic crystals as big as this one, and she also had several that were as big as pillars. One was even like a small mountain. In the future, just by buying magic crystals, she would be able to become rich.

"This is your black card." Wiley handed a card with a special symbol to Morna Garland. "This black card can enter the auction house unconditionally, and the items will have priority in the auction. You can have priority in the auction. I hope you'll be on time for tonight's auction."

"All right." Morna Garland took the black card and walked out frantically. She whispered to Paul, "Let's go for tea. You haven't used up the one gold coin you gave me."

"Can't you save a little?" Paul had passed the poor days, so he kept saying that he couldn't do without saving.

"Aren't I going to have money soon? I don't bring money with me when I'm alive, and I won't bring it with me when I die. Why don't I let it display its value?"

In the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly. Sitting on the balcony, Morna Garland crossed her legs and sipped her tea. She felt more relaxed than she had in a long time as she looked at the bustling city.

At this moment, there was no turmoil or ugliness. This world was gentle.

"Ah! Look at the sun! The rivers and mountains are beautiful! The south wind is beautiful." Morna Garland was intoxicated by the wind. In Paul's eyes, she was a living idiot.

Paul took back his previous words about how poor Morna Garland was. He could even take out a magic crystal the size of a fist. Money meant spending.

"Didn't you give us three magic crystals? I didn't expect you to hide such a big one... How many do you have?"

Morna Garland pretended to think for a moment. She was just as generous as she was now. "I might have a few tons..." she said casually.

When Paul heard this, he spat out a mouthful of water. If it wasn't for Morna Garland's quick reaction, she would have been drenched in water.

"Cough, cough, cough... A few tons?"

It was too terrifying. Did Morna Garland rob the mines? Or did she go somewhere and rob them?

"Then, you have so many magic crystals, why don't you give them to Kai? Look at his level..." It was worrisome. He remembered that when he first saw Kai, he was only at the third level. Now that he finally had a level 7...

"What's the use of leveling up? It still depends on strength. He should train more. I'll give it to him when I'm in a good mood."

When Paul heard Morna Garland's perfunctory words, he couldn't help but feel sympathy for Kai. After following Morna Garland for so long, he still challenged those of a higher rank every day and fought with his life on the line. Then he thought of himself and Sean Gabriel. Could it be that they were going to live like this too?

"I didn't say anything about the profession!"

The two of them took advantage of the beautiful afternoon to go shopping. Morna Garland was still full of energy, and Paul was already exhausted.

As soon as he was "cured," Paul's strength returned, but his heart was bitter. After hanging around with her for a long time, he was tired. This was even harder than going out to fight monsters.

At night, the lights of the Rainbow Auction House flickered, creating a few pillars of light in the sky. Morna Garland thought they had arrived at some kind of disco. People walked in and out, all of them people with status. Their professional levels were at least level 30. For a moment, she wondered if it was really good for her to wear this tattered black dress. Look at all the jewelry. Just in terms of aura alone, she had lost by a large margin.

Suddenly, a person behind Morna Garland said in a cold voice, "That blind guy is blocking my way? Get out of my way!"

Morna Garland's back was covered in cold sweat, and her heart was extremely embarrassed. Could it be that she had met some local snake? Who did she offend? She was just walking, yet she met such a troublemaker. She turned her head and saw a yellow skin. This skin was really a little yellow.

"Occupation: Beastmaster

Level: 35"

Morna Garland was puzzled and asked, "Who are you?"

Paul whispered into Morna Garland's ear: "It's Hull!"

Who was Hull? She had never heard of him before. Could it be a famous internet celebrity of the Black Moon Dynasty?

The man's veins popped. "Don't you know the Josaf family? I am Hull Josaf. The second young master of the family!"

Matt Josaf's son? Why is this world so small? When Silvia was killed, the brother happily went to the auction house. Morna Garland could not be angry in this place, so she could only choose to endure.

"Young Master Hull, I'm sorry to block your way. I'll get out of your way right now." Morna Garland pulled Paul aside and gave Hull a fierce look. Hull instantly felt an inexplicable chill on his back.

Paul originally thought that Morna Garland wouldn't be afraid, but he didn't expect her to show weakness.

Paul didn't know anything about Silvia, so Morna Garland explained, "I'm not afraid of him. I just want to teach him a lesson in the future. Let him know that there's always someone better in the world, and that I'm that person!"

"Please show us your tickets," said the soldier, his legs trembling. They suspected that these were the two men who had come that morning, but it was hard to tell them apart in their black robes. If it was not them, they would be punished by the higher-ups if they were found and let in some random people.

"Here!" Morna Garland handed over the black card.

The soldier did not even look at it. Just by hearing the voice, he knew who it was. He immediately stepped aside and said respectfully, "Please come in!"

As soon as Morna Garland entered the auction house, everyone inside seemed to know that she was there. A waiter walked over and said, "Hello, Miss. We, Lord Wiley, have prepared a VIP room for you. Lord Wiley is also waiting for you inside. Please come this way!"

Morna Garland smiled at the waiter and whispered to Paul, "I didn't expect the service of an auction house to be so good. It's really good to be a VIP."

The waiter led Morna Garland through a door and walked directly to the top of the auction hall. The auction hall was set up in the center, and below and around it were the positions of the auctioneers. As a VIP, she naturally did not have to squeeze into a pot of porridge with the people below. They just had to stay in the room above. The walls of the room had been enchanted. The people inside could see the situation of the auction outside. The people outside couldn't see inside. It directly guaranteed the VIPs' privacy.

"You two are finally here! The auction is about to begin!" Wiley welcomed them warmly.

"Lord Wiley sure is enthusiastic." Morna Garland pretended to smile embarrassedly.

"Of course not! You are honored guests. It is our duty." Wiley led Morna Garland and Paul to their seats.

As expected, she could clearly see the situation of the auction hall from here. She then looked around. The decoration of the room was simple and elegant. It seemed that the big boss behind Wen Hong had put a lot of thought into doing business.

"It's also my first time here. I wonder what good stuff will come."

"Then please wait and see, Miss. But we have known each other for a long time. May I know your name?" Wiley began to get close to her. In the Black Moon Dynasty, there were very few women who could come to this auction house, but all of them were either from large families or were brave men with outstanding strength.

Morna Garland didn't care. She wasn't an internet celebrity, so she didn't bother to think of a name. "Morna Garland."

"Oh! So it's Miss Lu. Our auction has begun. Please take a look!"

Morna Garland looked in Wiley's direction. Suddenly, in the center of the auction hall, a man in uniform appeared. He looked exactly like Wiley next to him.

"Don't be surprised. I'm a little lazy today, so I called someone who knows how to disguise himself. I'll go later," Wiley muttered.

On closer inspection, Morna Garland saw that the man was indeed a fake. At first glance, she thought he was a fake, but at second glance, he didn't look like one at all.

"You really know how to slack off. Don't you want to deduct your salary?"
