Chapter 675 Part 2: New Auction House
From MC's perspective:
The veteran bloodline wizard reaches the central auction house. He saw a brand new towering building standing in front of him.
People are coming and going to the place. Not only that he also saw several patrol guards on the ground.
"It's open," He uttered in surprise. He recently came to know about the reopening of the central auction house.
But right now, looking at the building. He thinks that business is booming after that incident.
Swish!
Then he landed on the ground and started walking towards the building.
When he entered inside. He was greeted by a staff member. After receiving the request, the staff informed the manager about his arrival.
All the old staff were replaced by the new staff including the manager. A white-haired old man with a goat beard walked downstairs.
He was wearing a tuxedo. Upon seeing the bloodline wizard, he immediately greeted them.
'Elder, what can I do for you?" The manager said. He recognized the uniform and the emblem.
"Elder House powerhouse, which means a Level-7 Wizard," The manager said in his heart.
The next moment, his eyes gleamed with a twinkle. Such a big customer. He doesn't want to miss it.
"Elder, come with me to the guest room. We can talk privately," After saying that he led the manager to the private room to talk.
Meanwhile,
The cab arrives at the closest landmark to the Central Auction House. It was a cafeteria.
After paying the amount to the driver, I started walking towards the destination.
Not long after, I went deeper. I saw many patrolling guards on the streets. They are not doing any inspection. Rather, they stayed in the same spot. Like standing guard.
Soon, I reached the central auction house which is a new towering building. There are 6 floors in it. After appreciating the building, I walked toward the gate.
After recognizing my uniform, the front guards didn't stop me. Then I walked to the front door to enter the building.
When I walked into the hall. I was greeted by a female staff member. A quick gleam flashes in my eyes. The place has a total changeover. Even the staff are new.
"Ahem!"
"I came to sell a few of my collections," I said to the staff.
Then the staff led me to the private room.
"Can you do it fast?"
"I'm in a hurry."
All of a sudden, I heard a familiar voice. Hearing that I stopped my movement and looked at my right side.
The veteran bloodline wizard Ben is talking to the manager.
Seeing the familiar person, my eyes flickered. Then I hurriedly walked forward to enter the room.
"What is he doing here?" I said in my heart. At the same time, I'm having thoughts about revenge. This guy has accused me without any evidence.
A cold chill flashes in my eyes. I haven't fought a level-7 wizard before. A crazy plan comes to mind. But it's not without risk.
Suddenly, I turned around and left the room. The staff was dumbfounded. Even before she asked, I disappeared from her sight.
Then I saw the veteran bloodline wizard is still talking to the manager. I removed my mask and started walking towards the exit.
When I walked past them.
"Wait, what are you doing here?" The bloodline wizard asked. His face was full of disbelief. He didn't expect Vincent Carey to be bold enough to leave the academy.
On the other hand, I ignored his words and opened the door to walk outside.
Ben's face turned ugly. A murderous aura was released from his body. Feeling that the manager and staff retreated a few steps backward.
"You guys wait for me. I have some important work to finish," the bloodline wizard said without turning his back.
Then he walked towards the exit to follow Vincent. Yesterday, he got reprimanded by the council elder.
At the end of the meeting, everyone agreed to deal with Vincent Carey secretly. Because some of the council elders wanted to hear the demise of Vincent Carey.
They can't bear the death of their descendants. Only Vincent's death can calm them.
But unfortunately, they can't act. Their movements are being monitored. And it's not the same case with the elder house.
The level-7 wizards are quite free. When he stepped out of the building. He saw Vincent's back disappearing as he walked into the narrow street.
Seeing that he hurriedly went forward to chase.
Meanwhile,
My heart was beating faster. As I'm misleading the level-7 wizard, I don't know whether he would fall for my trick or not.
So I'm cautiously moving forward. There are shops on both sides of the streets. This is not the ideal place for a fight.
I have to lead him to the narrow alley. Where no one was around.
Soon, I realized someone was following me from behind. Instead of turning back, I continued walking along the street.
The street is leading towards the outer area. Where there aren't many businesses running out there.
The veteran bloodline wizard frowned.
"Is he meeting someone?" He doubted. Unless there is something important, why would someone leave the academy?
Ben's eyes flickered. He thought someone was helping Vincent in secret. As long as he finds their identity, he can get rewards from the council elders.
So he started following Vincent slowly. If he wants he can appear in front of him in an instant, but if he does that he might miss the secret.
10 minutes later,
I finally left the central part of the city. Now there aren't many people on the street. So I continued walking.
After another 32 minutes of walking, I came to the run-down area. There are shop owners who have opened their shops for customers.
But most of the customers here are poor. As I reached the end of the street. I saw a narrow alley where the lights were off.
Not a single person can be seen walking down there. Seeing that my mouth curves into an arc.
Finally, I can test the strength of a level-7 wizard.
