Chapter 154: Chapter 154

When the self-driving car stopped, Du You had arrived in a bustling section of the city.

Ignoring the ordinary people around him, Du You quickly headed towards the center, emitting a part of his presence, which commoners dared not obstruct.

"Sir, may I assist you with something?" A retainer approached him as he arrived at the auction house.

"An elf, you must be joking. How could there be such a creature?" Surprisingly, Du You found out that the retainer who received him was an elf. Pointed ears, exquisite facial features, and an unusual hair color distinct from ordinary people. No matter how he looked at it, it was undoubtedly an elf. This was more than a surprise.

After taking a deep breath, Du You said, "I want to auction off some items; what’s the procedure?"

"Can we see the items? We are responsible for the appraisal."

Without any hesitation, Du You brought out Karl’s handkerchief (Used for creating dried corpses).

Seeing the Skill Scroll, the elf retainer’s eyes lit up, "This is a nice item. A skill that can create a large number of soldiers. It’s a war-type item. It’s a boutique item that can be auctioned on the first-tier auction. However, it is not yet a finale product."

Du You nodded slightly. The first-tier auction should correspond to the Awakeners. The second-tier auction, which is higher than the Awakeners, probably corresponds to the second-tier auction. It should be .

So as not to reveal his ignorance, Du You did not ask directly.

"Would you like to wait for the auction, or pursue a direct trade? We also handle trades here, you just need to pay a broker fee. Or, you could see what others have left here and sell directly to our auction house."

The elf spoke smoothly, probably because he often said these words. Du You thought for a moment and then nodded, "Then I’ll see what can be exchanged." Selling these items was only for acquiring other items that he needed.

Unlike the adventuring teams who needed to share the profit proportionally after selling the items, all of his items were his own. Upon hearing Du You’s words, the elf steward quickly provided a list.

"This list changes constantly. Each page is a datum. All of these are items left here by others for trading. They do not participate in the auction and directly exchange goods according to their own requirements, with no further issues. As soon as the trade is complete, the auction house will contact the seller to receive their item.

The auction house collects intermediary fees from both parties, thereby ensuring a profit.

After all, when auctioning items from the Derived World, it is impossible to measure everything with money like ordinary people’s auctions. Many times, even with money and crystal coins, you cannot necessarily get what you need."

Du You saw a spell skill he was interested in, but unfortunately, they were asking for a Blood Marrow Core, something Du You had never heard of before. He had no choice but to give up.

After all, the trader was not on the scene, and the auction house would not compromise with him. If the trading requirements are not met, the auction house will definitely not bargain with him. This is the house rule.

While quickly flipping through, Du You’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Shield Spell: Spontaneously generate a shield with extremely strong defensive abilities that can guard against all types of attacks.

Trading condition: Undead-type skills or equipment.

This was a perfect match. Du You pointed directly to this skill, "I want to trade this. However, in terms of price, the value of my skill scroll should be higher than this shield spell."

"That’s right, according to our trade pricing, the other party needs to compensate you with three thousand crystal coins. Do you agree? If so, we will contact the trader for transaction," The elf replied.

This kind of trade does not require both parties to converse face-to-face, nor leave their names, ensuring privacy. Even after the trade, it would be impossible to investigate the other party’s identity.

Du You nodded and said, "I agree, proceed as planned." Du You sighed. After all, spells were rare and thus priced high. If it was a defensive magic shield skill, the compensation from the other party should be significantly more. The trade was quick, and the skill scroll soon arrived in Du You’s hands.

He didn’t use it immediately. These kinds of items required a large burn of crystal coins to upgrade their star levels upon returning home.

Du You continued scrolling down and suddenly discovered an advanced skill.

Spiritual Perception: Prerequisite of level 7 Spiritual Lock; Carries out spiritual perception on a large range ("level*10" miles). Extremely perceptive within range, and assists in the casting of support magic (1st Tier).

The further-advanced skill of Spritual Lock, he didn’t expect to see it here. Few people train the skill of Spiritual Lock at low levels because the investment outweighs the return; it’s not very useful. However, Spiritual Lock is the prerequisite for many powerful advanced skills, which are highly valued.

He was lucky to come across it. His Spiritual Lock was at level 8, enough to learn this skill.

After pondering, Du You took out the Skill Scroll (Death Fog). Because the trading requirement of the other party was for any skill, without specifying what skill, any Warrior skill, Archer skill, or Undead Mage skill can be traded.

Considering there was one of Undead Mage’s class, he met the requirement otherwise he couldn’t afford it.

"The value of your skill is very high, according to our calculations, it is equivalent to the value of the other party’s skill, you only need to compensate the other party with four hundred crystal coins," The elf said.

Without hesitation, Du You said, "Just deduct it from the previous crystal coins, I still want to continue looking."

The smile on the elf’s face was brighter. With such a customer, his commission for the day would be higher.

Elves are not all as noble and detached from mundane affairs as people imagine. In different worlds, the nature of elves vary. In some worlds, elves and humans share similar personalities.

Encountering such an elf, Du You didn’t feel anything strange.

Direct exchange trades at the auction house require items of at least a glowing white grade. Without such quality, nobody would even give a second look. He still had two glowing white grade items.

Holy Armor Legion Summon Scroll: Summons one hundred 4th tier Holy Armor Legion Soldiers (Heavily Armed Legion), Duration: Two hours (Glowing White 2/2) Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵

Trading condition: Items that increase a warrior’s strength, or weapons and armor.

Although it cannot increase his own strength, it could be incredibly useful in moments of crisis.
