Monster Paradise
Chapter 821: Underground Auctions, Begin!
Early September's Montblanc is already in its early autumn season, with cooler temperatures and long gone summer heat.
Less than seven o'clock at night, it's completely dark.
After dinner, Lin Huang and Yi Zheng arrived at the Marlboro auction house.
The underground auction is not held here, it is just a transit station.
As we entered the auction house door, several staff greeted us.
One asked, "Are the two of you in this together or separately? ”
“Together.” Lin Huang replied.
“Gentlemen, please follow me.” After the interview, the staff member led the two men to the door of the floating ladder.
“The floating elevator will take you to a random empty room underground, where you pick out your favorite mask and cape, put it on, and then go to room B1. Someone will arrange for you to be transferred to the underground auction hall. ”
After this brief explanation, he brushed open the door to the floating ladder and saw the two of them step into it.
With very little access to the floating ladder, the door to the floating ladder reopens and is already an exhibition hall measuring more than 100 square metres.
The exhibition hall is filled with hundreds of simulation models, each wearing a different mask and a different cloak.
Only a few models were left without a cloak or mask, apparently picked up by those earlier in the day.
Yi Zheng had some eye-catching moments and didn't even know which one to pick.
But it wasn't a problem for Lin Huang. He swept away. The style of each mask and cape became obvious in his mind.
Less than a minute later, he picked the mask and cape he wanted.
The mask is made of some kind of light alloy, silver on the bottom, with no pattern on it, and looks extremely simple and rustic.
The cloak is brilliantly chosen as a black robe, equally devoid of any pattern or decoration, with a deep hat.
He wore it on his side, and Yi Zheng didn't even pick one.
“You picked it so quickly? ”
“I am a teacher, I know all the masks and cloak styles as soon as I can read them, and they are naturally simple to choose from.” Lin Huang's opening revealed that his voice had changed. This should be a feature that came with the mask.
“I can see my eyes now, or you can pick one for me.” Yi Zheng is too lazy to make his own choices, "just like your set, try to be as simple as possible, don't have any pattern decorations. ”
“OK.” Lin Huangneng quickly probed the silk thread, picking out three masks and four cloaks for Yi Zheng.
Yi is picking out a set inside, the mask is golden, nothing decorative, and the cloak is also picking out a black robe, similar to the one Lin Huang wore.
He wore a mask and a cloak, and Lin Huang had returned the remaining pieces to the model.
“Let's go! ”
Two people just pushed the door out of the room.
Looking up, the room number that just came out is B18, along the left side of the corridor, and the room number is getting smaller and smaller.
Shortly after walking forward, the door of B11 suddenly opened and came out to a man in a flower mask and a white robe. The figure was thin and the robe was covered, and it could not be seen whether it was a man or a woman.
Seeing Lin Huang and his men, he was slightly stunned, but quickly returned to God and turned towards B1.
Lin Huang and Yi Zheng followed him less than 30 meters behind him and were not in a hurry to catch up with him.
When he arrived at Gate B1, the white man glanced at the side of the door and pushed the door in.
Lin Huang and Yi soon followed the door.
The interior of room B1 is a bit like a conference room, with eighteen people already sitting at a long table and three empty seats.
Seventeen of the eighteen were wearing cloaks and masks of all kinds, and the white man just now was in line. But the only man sitting at the top of the long table, wearing a white mask like a jade, was wearing a black suit that did not look like anyone else.
Almost everyone's eyes fell on Lin Huang and Yi Zheng.
But this mask and this cloak have a shielding probe, and nobody can see anything.
Lin Huang's gaze swept through the crowd and finally landed on the man in the suit. He assumed that the man should be a staff member at the underground auction.
“Have a seat.” If not, the man in the suit opened his mouth after measuring a little bit or two, "the transmission array transmits every 20 people, not counting me, now one is missing. ”
Lin Huang and Yi Zheng only chose two adjacent empty seats to sit on.
In the room of twenty, it soon fell into silence.
We don't know each other, and after the entire body is covered, not only is personal information blocked, but trust between them is minimized, so there's really nothing to talk about.
Although there will be some measure of each other, the eyes will usually not stay on the same person for too long, one will not see anything at all, and one will be perceived by some grumpy people as provocative, causing unnecessary trouble.
Everyone knows that it's not easy to get an invitation to an underground auction, and nobody wants to make enemies of themselves.
But the good news is that the silent atmosphere didn't last long and was broken by incoming newcomers.
Twenty men, the man in the suit, got up, took out a white portal, activated the transporter coordinates, and let everyone step in.
After the portal closed slowly, Lin Huang walked in front of him and found himself in a hall.
Lin Huang looked around when he heard the noise.
Not far away is an auction platform, a woman in a rabbit ear mask stood on top and looked at Lin Huang walker.
“Freshly transferred Guests, find their own seats and sit down. ”
Lin Huanghuang turned his head towards the other side. Most of the audience seats were empty, but more than a hundred people had already chosen their seats. There were almost no more seats in the first two rows.
The noisy conversation just now came from this side.
Lin Huang glanced over and saw several pairs in conversation. It was estimated that the touch should have come with him.
After hearing the women on the stage, the twenty separated and took their seats.
Lin Huang saw that the middle area of the third row was no longer available, and with Yi Zheng, found two adjacent seats in the middle of the fourth row to sit down.
“This is a really small meeting area with only 1,200 seats.” Lin Huang laughed.
“Underground auctions are generally not very large. Besides, Marlborough is under the authority of the federal government. The federal government still has to give it face, so it can't be overstated.” Yi is explaining, "the more people are invited to this auction, the easier it is to make a mistake. ”
It was too early for the auction to start, and the two of them got bored and just chatted.
Waves and waves of Guests are being transferred to the venue, and the more seated the audience is.
Almost 7: 50, the venue for 1,200 people was finally full, and all invited guests arrived.
At exactly 8 p.m., the woman in the rabbit's ear mask finally opened her mouth again.
“Good evening and welcome to this auction. I am the auctioneer Rabbit Ear for this auction, don't question, of course this is not my real name. We hope to have a great evening with you and wish you all the best in photographing what you want. ”
“So much for nothing, now please join us in our first collection!” The Rabbit Ear lady just came out and corrected it again, "was the first collection, to be exact. ”
Her voice fell, and twenty men, all naked, walked in two rows to the auction stand.
At the beginning of the scene, there was a lot of discussion among the Guests below.
“The castrated slave?” Lin Huang's eyebrows are locked, and Yi Zheng's face is not very pretty.
These twenty men, dressed in red fruit, had no trace of reproductive * organs at all.
“Was the surgery too clean?” The man in the grey robe sitting behind Lin Huang couldn't help but mumble.
“Looks like I'll have to add something.” The Rabbit Ear Girl Speaks Again, "these 20 people, they're not the slaves we all imagined. Although it looks exactly like humans, it's actually an artificial human being made through genetic technology. This shipment was only the first of small-scale trial production, with a nine-step habitat. ”
“Twenty people, the starting bid is 100 million life-crystals, not less than 5 million at a time. Start auctioning now from number one! ”
