Chapter 364 Ripple Effects
The grade of snake blood is too high for that gravity kid to buy. A trace of struggle flashes in his eyes. There was one flaw in his plan: he couldn\'t fix the prize of the snake blood.
If he lowered the price deliberately, it would cause a lot of eyebrows to raise. Then many people will be suspicious. He can\'t afford to make such a mistake.
Coming back to that kid, gravity kid. He doesn\'t know who will help him to buy that snake blood. Because he knows the kid\'s background. It\'s impossible for that kid to even buy an entry pass for the auction.
In his opinion, either someone from the elder hall would take action or that Gilbert guy might buy this thing for that kid.
Anyway, with the appearance of snake blood in auction. He can see the attitude of the academy towards that kid.
If there is support behind the scenes, then he will have to make his plan carefully.
"Ko,"
"Is this your work?"
Behind him, a green haired wizard hurriedly walked out. Before both of them decided to take action. But this news came as a surprise.
Ko\'s snake pupil flickered with a slight glint. He simply nodded his head in response.
Green haired wizard stunned. But he suddenly asked,"Bro, do you think it will work?"
"That kid is poor. On top of it, who will allow him to enter the auction house? Don\'t you think it\'s farfetched."
Ko\'s eyes turned cold. Sensing that green haired wizard quieted down.
Then Ko said,"It\'s just bait."
"And I don\'t want to wait any longer to complete the task. If I want to enter Elder House, this is the only chance for me," He added further.
Green haired wizard\'s heart was shocked. He knows the ambition of Ko is high. Compared to the Elder House, the cost of snake blood is nothing to be mentioned.
Even if he was given the chance, he would probably do the same. But again the probability of failure is high. Let\'s see those fools from the Sub-Taboo Hall whether they take the bait or not.
....
At a certain location, outside of the academy. Gilbert opened the communication terminal. He also heard the news about Central Auction. Because he was a regular customer there.
He used to buy one or two auction items every year. Certainly, this time he was intrigued to check the list.
But after a few minutes, a strange glint flashes in his eyes. "Gravity Snake Monster,"He muttered to himself in shock.
Quickly, the image of Vincent Carey comes to his mind. For a moment, he felt unreal. Because it\'s not easy to come across Sub-Taboo Treasure.
Which is also the blood of a 6th order monster.
"That kid\'s luck is quite good," His mouth curved into an arc. He was hoping to buy some things for himself.
But suddenly he decided to contact the superior in the Sub-Taboo Hall. He knows the academy might be starting this thing.
"Not good," He muttered. He remembers the background of the Green Serpent Clan. The appearance of the snake blood is very timely.
He couldn\'t help but think of it as Bloodline Hall\'s Plan. They almost tore off their faces. But he doesn\'t think that Green Serpent Clan or Bloodline Hall would sell this rare treasure to the auction.
Otherwise someone from the academy would definitely monitor them. Coming back to the snake blood, he felt a headache. He knows the snake blood is not only important to their academy. For others as well.
If he goes there as a True House Wizard, then people would definitely raise the price. It certainly needs some planning to buy this or there should be some robbery later.
Anyway he made up his mind to buy this item. "Let\'s go back to the academy," He said to himself. He wants to meet Vincent Carey straight away.
....
The Dragon City,
Code named Black and Blucky also got the news. Because they make huge money every year by the time of the auction.
So when they view the listed items. Both of them looked at each other.
"There is an opportunity," Black became excited. He had never expected an opportunity to fall from nowhere.
"Do you think he will come?" Bucky asked.
Black asked,"What do you mean?"
Bucky replied,"Inorder to buy 6th order blood. You need a lot of money. But that kid is a trifling lower level wizard."
"And what will happen if someone else buys this time in the end," he added further.
Black face sank. He said,"Let\'s report it back to the headquarters. They will think of something."
Hearing that Bucky nodded his head. Not only other power houses are interested in Central Auction. Even the Dark League would step in if there is needed item in action.
Soon, black opened the communication terminal to send the message. And waited for the reply.
A few minutes later,
Black received the reply. After reading the message his pupil shrank, then he let out a deep sigh.
"What happened?" Bucky asked. He noticed the change in expression on Black\'s face.
Black felt helpless before replying. The headquarters will send a True House Wizard for the auction. And our job is to assist him.
Bucky\'s expression changes drastically. He doesn\'t want to become cannon fodder. The higher level wizards in the dark league are inhumane. They won\'t hesitate to sacrifice their pawn.
Thinking about the felt chills all over his body.
Black saw Bucky\'s complex mood. He said,"Don\'t think too much. He won\'t sacrifice us. There will be a lot of people on the day of the auction. The True House wizard won\'t dare to expose his whereabouts."
Bucky calmed down his heart. More than a higher level wizard in Dragon City. He is afraid of higher level wizards in his organization.
Then both of them remained silent.
...
Taboo Hall,
"Gravity Blood," Lara White uttered in surprise. She immediately thought of Vincent Carey. Vincent is a blockbuster everywhere. She couldn\'t help but feel envy.
But again thinking about the other party\'s identity. She calmed down her heart. She heard from her teacher that Vincent is from a backward country and his parents\' were low level healers.
So it\'s impossible for Vincen to buy this thing in Vincent\'s personal capacity.
Creak!
"Lara, I heard you are present at the official duel," A cold voice heard from behind.
Lara White\'s face becomes solemn. She knew someone would definitely come ask her about this. But she hadn\'t expected this one to come.
The door behind her opened and a cold looking young man came.
"Senior Curtis, what do you want?" Lara White turned toward him and asked.
A cold glint flashes in Curtis\' eyes before it disappears.
"Ha...Ha...Ha..."
"I just want to know why you care about that trash," He asked.
Lara White knows he is mentioning the Sub-Taboo Hall and the Bloodline Hall.
"It\'s none of your business," After saying that she got up to leave.
Curtis didn\'t stop her. But his eyes flickered with cold glint. He feels this woman is not stupid. And it\'s becoming very hard to deal with.
"Harumph, sooner or later I will suppress you," He said in his heart. The day of the three academy competition is not far away.
...
(From MC\'s Perspective)
Both walk toward the Sub-Taboo Hall after having breakfast. And no surprise, l came across a lot of eyeliner outside. I clenched my fist in anger.
But I knew it would be a matter of time before I became a level-4 wizard. Then I can deal with some pests.
Ignoring them, we walked into the inside after scanning the details.
Beep!
Carolina received a sudden message. Seeing it was from Senior Gilbert. She immediately thought about the auction. After reading the message, she sighed in relief. She can confirm in her heart that Senior is going to help Vincent.
"Vincent, don\'t go anywhere?"
"Senior Gilbert is coming here to meet you," Carolina said with a smile.
Her words reached my ears. The next moment, earlier gloominess completely swept away in my heart and it\'s replaced with excitement.
I was wondering whether he would help me or not. But hearing that he is coming to me. I couldn\'t help but think about the snake blood again.
If I can consume the snake blood, then it will give me a huge promotion. Not only will I break through, I believe my physique will improve drastically.
I sat on the chair and waited for his arrival. I know it\'s not easy to buy that blood from the auction. There will be severe competition.
Time passed,
One hour later,
Gilbert Reese walked into the Hall. When he saw Vincent Carey. A bright smile appeared on his face.
"Vincent, I envy your luck,"He said without hiding his emotion. At first, it took him some time to adjust his emotions.
The snake blood is a sub-taboo category treasure.
Seeing him coming, I walked up to greet him.
