Chapter 249 Annis

The woman in the white dress wanted to cry at this moment.

She had never encountered such a situation in her career.

It would have been fine if the unknown man had been quoting one gold coin, and she could have continued to bid if she had endured it, but now another woman came to join in the fun and raised the price by one gold coin.

She looked up at the box and was stunned when she saw the figure of the person who raised the price, and then her body trembled involuntarily.

It turned out to be... it turned out to be her idol!

It was the owner of Hongguang City, Lord Anis, the Sky Knight!

The woman in the white dress suddenly became excited. Did Lord Anis not stand it anymore and wanted to come out to administer justice! ?

Did Lord Anis raise the price by one gold coin to mock the man and suppress his arrogance! ?

At this time, other people in the venue also recognized who the owner of the voice shouting two gold coins was.

The whole venue was in an uproar.

No one expected Lord Anis, the Sky Knight, to appear at the auction, nor did they expect Lord Anis to personally participate in the auction of this broken sword.

After all, people like this don't even need to speak. As long as they show their intentions a little, others will willingly deliver what they want to them.

Because in this world where great power belongs to oneself, the power of the strong is unimaginable.

What makes everyone feel even more outrageous is that Lady Anis shouted out a bid of two gold coins.

"It's Lady Anis!" Xixi's eyes were full of stars, and her face was full of admiration.

"Sky Knight Anis..." Jorge couldn't help but mutter to himself, his eyes full of admiration.

The moment he saw Anis, he threw the half-elf behind his mind. Anis, who is beautiful, wise and powerful, is his dream lover, his ideal and pursuit.

Lu He narrowed his eyes slightly.

He found that the men at the venue, whether they could still be hard or not, had their heartbeats accelerated, and the women turned into little fans in seconds, and even Yue Ling, who was beside him, was full of admiration.

This charm...

It is simply that it is all-encompassing regardless of gender, age or gender.

To be honest, he was a little jealous.

The half-elf tribe didn't behave like this after knowing that he was a sky knight, nor did they behave like this after capturing Augustine.

For example, Yue Ling and Lala did have a little admiration for him, but more of it was fear...

Lu He thought this was a normal behavior. After all, when facing a strong man who controls your life and death at any time, fear is normal.

When facing him, the people on Earth were mostly afraid, and after coming to this world, the people in this world behaved the same way.

But now he found that it was still possible? Can there be a behavior without fear? A completely worshipful expression?

Lu He felt very uncomfortable.

He slowly turned his head and stared at the old woman Annis above him, looking directly into her beautiful big eyes.

He stretched out three fingers and said, "Three gold coins!"

His tone was very serious.

Because he, Lu He, would never be pressed by a girl, or just pressed by one.

Except for one situation, one scene, he could be pressed by one, otherwise he would not accept it!

Once three gold coins were thrown out, they were more powerful than one gold coin. The VIPs all saluted Lu He.

Want to know why this man is so fierce? It's okay to challenge Kaili Auction House, but he also challenged Sky Knight Anis.

Yue Ling felt the air was a little cold. She looked at Lu He with some fear, knowing that he was angry.

Anis had ice-blue hair and a white face, but she was cold and cold. She stared at Lu He with a pair of beautiful big eyes. There was a faint sense of oppression in her eyes, and her shiny red lips made her look even colder.

At this time, there was no smile on her face. She slightly raised her snow-white chin and examined Lu He.

After a while, she slowly said: "Four gold coins!"

Lu He curled his lips and replied: "Five gold coins!"

Anis stood up and pressed another one: "Six!"

Lu He also stood up and pressed back: "Seven!"

Then the two began to press each other.

The venue was very quiet, with only the sound of counting gold coins.

Xixi was shocked, Jorge was shocked, the woman in the white dress was shocked, and the VIPs were also shocked.

Only Yueling was afraid.

Of course, there was also the steward Murray, whose hands and legs were shaking constantly, but he was just ready to run away at any time.

He was now extremely worried that the two would fight. He had seen the terrifying destructive power of the Sky Knight. Only the Knight rank could resist the aftermath of the battle, and those below the Knight rank would die if they were touched.

Time passed by every second.

The two were also pressing back and forth in a rhythmic manner,

until a certain moment, the number of gold coins stopped abruptly when it reached 69.

Sky Knight Anis surrendered.

It was not that she didn't want to continue, her fighting power was still there, but she felt the increasingly dangerous aura on the other side, and the suppressed blood and qi were like a volcano about to erupt, surging and turbulent.

Anis was worried that the other side would not be able to control the sudden eruption, causing more serious consequences, so she gave up.

Lu He smiled and turned back to sit down.

He actually did it on purpose. If he really wanted to fight, he would not give the other side time to be alert like now.

Instead, he suddenly attacked with a thunderous force, catching his opponent off guard and trying to finish him off within three moves.

The information he overheard yesterday showed that this Anis was more concerned about the Rainbow Light City under her feet.

Now, he just scared her casually, and she was forced to retreat.

At the signal from Lu He to continue the auction, the woman in the white dress woke up from her daze.

She felt very uncomfortable now, with an ugly, almost fake smile on her face and said:

"The next auction is a high-grade spiritual fruit that grows in underground fire caves, the Blue Fire Source Fruit."

"Everyone must be familiar with the Blue Fire Fruit. After swallowing it, it can increase the body's resistance to flames and impart certain burning properties to the energy."

When the woman in the white dress was sitting in the corner on the right, several men and women wearing gray leather armor had extremely ugly expressions.

On their chests they wore a strange emblem of a long scarlet snake with a triangular head and a tail.

The Snake Banner Mercenary Group discovered the Blue Fire Source Fruit being auctioned on stage.

"Captain, what should I do?" Deputy Commander Joseph was worried.

According to the rhythm of the first two auction items, this blue fire source fruit with more than 100 gold coins will be the top bidder today.

And depending on the situation, Lady Anis will not bid again, so there is a high probability that there will only be one gold coin.

The leader of the group, Wells, turned pale. This was because he was anxious.

He regrets it now. If he had known this, he should have sold the Blue Fire Source Fruit to the Soros family instead of listening to the temptation of Kaili Auction House, which led to what happened now.

"The auction reserve price is..."

"No need to shoot, give it to me."

Lu He couldn't think of a single gold coin. In his opinion, this blue fire source fruit was originally his.

He just came to get back what belongs to him, why should he spend money? Spending money is not reasonable at all.

The woman in the white dress was about to cry, her eyes dim with tears.

She looked at the head steward Murray for help, and Murray was carefully observing whether the floor was clean today.

She looked at the box above again. Lady Anis had an expressionless face, crossed her arms and said nothing.

Seeing this situation, the woman in the white dress calmed down. She forced a smile and announced awkwardly: "Then... let us congratulate this gentleman for taking the picture of this blue fire source fruit."

"Stop trading! I won't auction anymore!"

Just when the woman in the white dress was about to drop the hammer, Wells in the corner suddenly yelled.

Lu He ignored him, stood up and walked onto the high platform, picking up the Blue Fire Source Fruit on the table in full view of everyone.

Then he walked towards the door next to him and prepared to leave. Before going out, he realized that he seemed to have forgotten something.

Lu He thought for a while, then turned around and saw Yue Ling pouting her lips, blushing, running towards him quickly with her long legs.

"This is my Blue Fire Fruit. I won't auction it anymore. Please return it to me." Wells walked out at this time and stopped at the entrance of the venue, staring at him with gloomy eyes.

"A good dog doesn't block the road." Lu He advised.

This is a knight, but the aura on his body is a little weaker than Mark's, and the energy flows up and down in his body.

"This is my blue fire source fruit!" Wells was already obsessed, completely ignoring the auction's rules.

"Don't overestimate your capabilities." Lu He shook his head and stepped forward lightly with his right foot.

As soon as his feet fell, the whole venue roared, and the huge sound seemed to shake the church down in an instant.

Everyone's eardrums roared, and there was a fine buzzing sound, which was caused by temporary deafness.

Wells felt the strongest feeling from the front, and his body instantly froze in place as if struck by thunder.

He felt as if he had been frozen, completely helpless, as if his flesh and blood had suddenly turned into cold stone.

boom!

Wells felt an upright and powerful force hit his chest hard, and there was a faint whistling sound like a roaring lion in the air around him.

His body was blown away like a leaf, and his leather armor cracked and shattered, turning into ashes.

The explosive force pulled his body, seeming to tear his entire chest apart...

"Zoron, that's enough!"

Lu He felt a sharp gaze, and he didn't look back. He knew it was the old woman without even looking.

Gently kicking away the dying dog on the ground, Lu He smiled, waved his hand, and left.

Anis looked at Lu He's back, raised her slender and beautiful eyebrows slightly, and left.

The shocked and stunned VIPs and the auction house staff who were on the verge of tears were left behind.

】

"Siva, have you heard of Sauron?" Jorge asked seriously.

Now he just wants to know who this big boss is, and as for his previous little thoughts, he has long been frightened away.

"Never said that." Siwa shook her head in confusion.

"It shouldn't be..." Jorge said to himself.

Such an arrogant and domineering person, who does not even give Lady Anise face, should not remain anonymous.

"Soros family, Earl Sauron." Xixi on the side raised the business card in her hand.

I saw it clearly written on it: Soros Family, Assistant to Count Sauron - the beautiful Ms. Yue Ling.

…

The afternoon sun, like a tired giant eye, gradually closed, covering the world with a layer of pale golden gauze.

In the hotel study room.

There is a zigzag yellow wood table in the middle, with several black leather chairs surrounding it. A square chandelier hangs from a black wire above the table, emitting soft white light.

Lu He sat at the main seat by the curtain, quietly holding a cup of hot drink and drinking it slowly.

The table in front of him was carved with extremely complex hook-shaped talisman arrays.

The red and white talisman arrays are constantly shining with light, with a fixed frequency like breathing. Within the talisman arrays are nested one after another large and small talisman arrays, like countless gears connected together to form a cavity-shaped human brain.

Inside the human brain is a blue fire source fruit. At this time, countless blue flames drill out from the pores on the surface of the fruit.

At the same time, the entire table began to slowly fill with a burning breath, as if the air was also burning and twisting, but was blocked by an invisible light shield.

He was doing preliminary processing on the blue fire source fruit.

He had to wait until he returned to the half-elf tribe to really start refining the spiritual potion. There was a lack of relevant auxiliary equipment here, and in addition, it required special terrain and environment.

The potion that Lu He was going to refine this time was different from the spiritual potion that enhanced the meditation effect before. It was a potion that used the special fire will in the potion to temper the spirit.

The effect should be better than those meditation potions, and much better. It is a more advanced potion recorded in the Eye of Inheritance, and it has a certain effect on second-level wizards.

If it can be successfully refined, he may not lack potions until he advances.

That's why he came here in person to ensure that there would be no accidents.

Ding Dong!

The doorbell rang, and after getting Lu He's permission, Yili and Comanche walked in. They had just arrived in Hongguang City.

"You two take people to guard here, and don't allow anyone to approach my study." Lu He said lightly.

He left after that.

He didn't worry too much about someone destroying his experiment, because both of them are very strong now.

Especially Yili, Lu He injected him with high-concentration blood extracted from Augustine a few days ago, and his life level was further improved, and his combat power became much stronger.

With two people guarding here, no one can break in except the Sky Knight.

Walking out of the study and coming to the living room, the sky outside has turned slightly red, and gusts of cool breeze blew, making it cool.

Yue Ling was waiting anxiously outside. When she saw Lu He coming out, she took the initiative to greet him.

"What's the matter?"

"The forces behind the Kaili Auction House sent someone to invite you to dinner." Yue Ling paused and continued, "It is said that the Sky Knight Pato personally invited you."

Yue Ling handed over the prepared red invitation.

Lu He took it, and it said that it was not clear that the Blue Fire Origin Fruit was what he wanted, so Kaili Auction House accepted the auction commission from the Snake Flag Mercenary Group and said that they had prepared a dinner to apologize to him.

The address was in a manor not far from the south gate of Hongguang City.

Lu He snorted coldly, and with one hand, the invitation card suddenly turned into countless fine powders and scattered with the wind.

"Are you treating me as a stupid dog?"

If he hadn't overheard the conversation between Anis and the blond knight, he might have believed it.

And now, this is a Hongmen Banquet, and it is obvious that they want to trick him out of Hongguang City and kill him.

This Pato thought he didn't know, but thinking about it, it seems that it might be true.

After all, he didn't show any abnormality, and his behavior at the auction house was just normal. Even if he didn't know Pato's plan, he would do this.

It is in line with his usual personality.

"What stupid dog?" Yue Ling was puzzled.

"Go and carry my bow." Lu He smiled and pinched her pointed ears, "Let's go to the banquet."

It's still safer in the city, because Anis will not allow them to take action. If they choose to take action regardless of everything, it's hard to say what Anis's position will be.

But there is no need. Lu He never allows his enemies to breathe the air of the next morning alive.

It's not that he doesn't have the strength.

Yue Ling glared at Lu He, and waited until he felt comfortable before turning to his bedroom to get the half-elf's inherited bow.

At this time, outside the hotel gate.

Pavis stood beside a luxurious golden carriage and tried to calm his nervous mood.

Few people knew about Lord Pato's plan, and he happened to be one of them, and was in charge of the affairs of Hongguang City.

I thought it was nothing for him, and the matter of besieging the Sky Knights was handed over to other colleagues in the family, and he would get through it.

But I never expected that Lord Pato didn't intercept Sauron outside the city and let him slip in.

As a result, it was his turn to face the Sky Knight. What if Zoro found something wrong...

Pavis felt terrible just thinking about it.

He looked at the bright hotel lobby and suddenly hoped that Zoro would not come out, so he would not have to lead the way.

Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished.

Seeing the white robe, Pavis was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth, put on a smile and went forward to greet him.

"Lord Zoro, I am a knight of the Kyle family. Lord Pato instructed me to come and pick you up for the banquet."

Lu He looked at the blond and blue-eyed knight with a little surprise, thinking that he was a talent.

He sensed his nervous breath in the hotel, but he was not nervous after seeing him. His acting skills were really good.

"Let's go." Lu He responded lightly.

"Please get in the car." Pavis was respectful and personally brought a horse stool and placed it in front of the carriage.

"Let's not take the carriage. Let's walk over and take a look at the night view of Hongguang City by the way."

Lu He shook his head and walked straight to the south. He would not take the enemy's carriage. What if it was poisonous?

If he is sure to do so, we must be on guard.

Pavis was stunned, then came to his senses, took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, and hurriedly followed.

Hongguang City seemed more lively in the evening.

The vendors were selling all kinds of delicacies, with all kinds of aromas and noisy throat calls. There were jugglers performing hard on the street corners, attracting a large number of onlookers.

The women and girls who came out to the night market had no scruples about showing their faces, chatting with their companions and laughing.

On the way, Lu He asked Pavis to buy a candied haws for him and Yue Ling, and walked slowly towards the south gate.

"Did Knight Pato only invite me?" Lu He asked casually after taking a bite of the fruit under the rock sugar.

The sudden question made Pavis' heart tighten suddenly. He shook his head and replied: "No, no, we also invited some other forces in Hongguang City."

Lu He smiled and said: "Today's auction..."

"Don't take it to heart, Lord Sauron, just treat it as compensation for the offense of the people below." Pavis was calm.

Lu He's eyes were faintly smiling, and he admired this knight more and more. His performance didn't seem to be acting.

Decided to give him a chance later.

After walking for more than ten minutes, they finally arrived at the South Gate.

There were people coming and going under the city gate, and there was a lot of traffic. Lu He looked up at the city gate, and Anis was watching him above.

A head of shoulder-length hair fluttered in the breeze, a white melon-seed face, clear and bright eyes, and shiny red lips.

She was dressed in white, with the first button of her white shirt unbuttoned, her collar open, revealing her white and crystal collarbone, and the curve below was amazing.

Lu He felt a little dazzled in the night.

"Sauron, the banquet is boring, there is no need to go."

A cold voice sounded in his ears, Lu He was stunned at first, then laughed.

Then he jumped up lightly, came to the top of the city wall, and stood side by side with Anis. Maybe the distance between the two was too close, Anis felt a little uncomfortable and stepped back a few steps.

"You actually reminded me, aren't you afraid that Pato will find you?"

Lu He didn't mind, turned around and walked to the other side, leaned on the city wall, and looked at the land outside dyed red by the sunset.

Anis was startled, she looked at Lu He without saying a word.

She came to the South Gate by some strange coincidence, and wanted to remind Sauron implicitly, but she didn't expect that he had known it for a long time.

"Then why did you..."

Lu He didn't answer, quietly enjoying the beautiful scenery outside the city.

The sky was full of red clouds, and everything on the earth was dyed red. On the edge of the dark red plain, a group of black sparrows were perched on a dense grove of trees.

At this time, Yueling and Pavis also came up.

"The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it is almost dusk."

Lu He murmured, and picked up the half-elf bow behind Yueling under Anis's puzzled eyes.

This bow should see blood.
