Knowing that this time it would not be so peaceful, Owen looked at the two people sitting opposite him speechlessly.

Although the other party tried his best to hide his nervousness, he was still too young and didn't even notice that the weapon was pushing up the black robe. At this level, he didn't know where he got the invitation. He must have stolen it from his parents. If true, that would be fun.

Not only Owen, but also Count Dekra saw that there was something wrong with the two of them.

But neither of them meant to meddle in other people's business. They attended the secret auction this time just to pass the boring time. It made no difference to them whether they wanted to buy something seriously or watch someone make a big fuss at the auction.

It's just that the secret auction has existed for so many years. There are a lot of people making trouble, but not many can survive. Looking at the other party's guilty look before taking action, I'm afraid the fun won't last too long, because they don't know the other party. If you are an adventurer who doesn't know the origins of the world, you may be a pill. If you have some background, you will have to wait for the other person's parents to pay for the ransom.

The four of them were silent all the way. When the car door opened, they realized they had arrived.

The secret auction was held not in a dark and damp underground, nor in a dilapidated warehouse, but in a noble castle belonging to a rather respectable family.

The main reason why the auction was held in the castle was because the auction was only for ordinary people. Most nobles and a small number of gentry and knights knew about it.

For the big nobles, even the organizers are very clear, because they are shareholders, otherwise you would think that they are blind and let people make a lot of money in their sphere of influence.

However, there should still be some cover-up. For example, the owner of this castle is currently taking his whole family out for fun, seemingly unaware of the secret auction.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, there is a reasonable alibi.

The real situation is that the owner of the castle will receive a few percent of the profit from the entire auction as a reward for lending the castle to a secret auction. This is not a small amount.

Ignoring the two people who got out of the car and hurriedly got into the crowd, Owen looked around carefully. It was his first time here, so he was naturally curious.

Unfortunately, just like what Count Dekra said before, the secret auction in front of him was really not of a high level. There were stalls in the open space of the castle, so the level was immediately lowered. But for Owen, who was here for the first time, it was still a high level. There is a lot to see.

Seeing that Owen was interested in these things, Count Dekra was afraid that he would be too embarrassed to let go, so he said hello and separated, waiting for the auction to start before rejoining.

After Count Declara left, Owen started walking in the open space of the castle with his hands behind his back.

Even if they set up a stall, the things here are not cheap, they just don't qualify for auction, but ordinary people can't afford these things, so they paid money to the secret auction to set up a stall here and look for customers.

Owen looked around and saw that most of them were magic items and materials, some were used to protect oneself and kill enemies, and more were used to increase charm or daily necessities. For example, he saw a stall owner holding a metal piece slightly larger than a ring. Circle, I pulled a customer whose black robe couldn't cover her bulging belly to introduce the magical enchanting ability of the circle, such as increasing the hardness, increasing wear resistance, and elongating and enlarging effects.

The customer mentioned was a little tempted, but because of the price and doubts about the effect, he didn't pay immediately.

The stall owner immediately took out his trump card. He took out a wilted mushroom from his pocket and waved it in front of the customer. The customer's eyes were on fire and he almost hit him. Slapping someone in the face or calling him names without revealing his shortcomings. You not only imply that he is weak, but also call him short-sighted. That man can bear it.

The stall owner must have had some experience, so he hurriedly put a metal ring on the mushrooms. Not only did the enoki mushrooms turn into comatus drumsticks, but they were also hard. When he tapped the palm of his hand, the customer immediately lost all anger and decided to pay.

Owen was not the only one who saw this scene, so soon the stall owner was surrounded by a group of men in black robes. They probably all had something to hide, and some of them were women. They were not multiple parts, but for other people. I bought it from a guy who had really good intentions.

In addition to this kind of magic props, there are also things like love potions that are selling well. A lot of them are sold in a short time, and the transaction volume is around hundreds of gold coins.

Owen wasn't interested in any of this, it was all leftover from his fun, so he continued to move forward.

The front is the area where slaves are sold, but there are no wooden cages or iron ropes. After all, the customers here are people with status, and safety is the most important issue. By displaying these things, doesn't it make it clear that your own slaves are not safe?

Instead, there are small stages. Young and beautiful slaves of all races, regardless of gender, stand on the stage one by one, trying to show their worth, twisting and shaking their hips, trying to be taken away.

But with Owen's eyesight, he immediately saw the problem.

These slaves have obviously had plastic surgery, and they have also been sprayed with something similar to a love potion. With the special lighting around the stage, they completely show their most attractive side. If they are not strong-willed, they can easily be tempted. Money buys it.

It's just that after the effect of the medicine wears off, the situation will be similar to turning off the beauty. Although I won't have to carry the carriage and run away all night, I will probably be nauseated. After all, without the influence of the medicine, my improved appearance and figure will be very good. It's easy to see the problem.

This has nothing to do with Owen. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. As for the origin of these slaves, he does not care and cannot care about them. After all, even if he becomes the emperor, the situation will not be much better, so he just takes a look and not talking.

After an unknown amount of time, the stalls in the open space began to evacuate, and the gate to the castle opened. It was obvious that the real auction had begun.

A man who looked like a mage, escorted by several black knights, stood in front of the door and began to check the invitation.

This is not done to prevent undercover agents from sneaking in, but to verify identity.

Only with status can you have money, and only with money can you participate in the auction. Otherwise, a stupid person with no money sneaks in and pretends to be a big boss. As a result, he can’t get the money out of the auction. Even if he is killed at the auction, he will not be able to recover the loss.

The money was fine, but the key was that it would have a huge impact on credibility, so a mage was responsible for checking the invitations.

Owen was originally not qualified to receive the invitation, but Count Dekra was responsible for guaranteeing it, so not only did he receive it, he was placed in the front row near the auction table.

As soon as Owen sat down, Count Dekra came over with a wine glass. Apparently he had met someone he knew before, but compared to those casual acquaintances, Owen was more important, so he came over as soon as he saw him.

After a while, the surrounding lights gradually went out, leaving only a beam of light on the auction table, and the auctioneer in charge of the auction also walked onto the stage wearing a mask to preside over the next auction.
