After the full level, my soft rice system is long overdue

Charles waited for a while in the secondary plane, but he didn't wait for the supervisor to arrive. He guessed that the other party was busy with something, so he wandered casually in the secondary plane.

There are a lot of businesses in the secondary planes. In addition to the most classic information transactions, props transactions, and anonymous commissions for various tasks are also countless.

And compared to the adventurer's guild, almost all of them are crusades against XX monsters, or escorting XX caravans to XX places, all of which can be resolved by force. The anonymous task bar in the shadow council is There are a lot of variety.

For example, at first glance, it was written by a certain noble lady, "Investigate the extramarital affair between Earl Aoyama and the dancer of the Imperial Opera House, and collect substantive evidence. The rewards are generous."

Another example is the frighteningly thought-provoking "How to make the knight instructor of the Alan Empire fall in love with a man by offering a huge reward"

There was another anonymous commission written not in the common language of the Western Continent, but in an ancient language that caught Shire's attention—

"I am a lord from the northern part of the mainland. Recently, a large number of plastic straws of unknown origin have appeared in my territory. This has caused great trouble to our lives. Please go to the barren mountains to hand over the information to anyone who knows."

The Barren Mountains are located at the northernmost tip of the Western Continent, where the passage between the Abyss Plane and the Western Continent is located, and are guarded by strong men from the extreme north all year round.

These days, even demons have learned to use the Shadow Council to issue commissions.

Charles was amazed.

He wandered around the commission column, satisfying his curiosity greatly.

Sure enough, gossip is the essence of human beings, even myself is no exception.

At this moment, Charles saw many masked guests walking in one direction, so he grabbed an employee of the Shadow Council and asked, "What are they doing here?"

"This guest, they are going to participate in the monthly auction of our Shadow Council."

The employee spoke respectfully.

Almost all those who can enter the secondary planes inside the Shadow Council are Transcendents of the fourth rank or above, or their own background is quite rich and they have special connections to be introduced, no matter what kind, he, a small employee, cannot afford to provoke them. of.

While talking, the employee quietly lowered his voice: "And this guest, I can disclose in advance that there will be several finale-level auction items in this auction."

"Many distinguished guests came to this auction this time, just for the finale auction items."

"is it?"

The other party's words aroused Ciel's interest a little bit, he knew the urine of the Shadow Council——

It can be called the finale auction item so cautiously by the other party, even if it is not at the level of legendary weapons, it is almost always something related to legendary powerhouses.

Anyway, waiting is idle, so Charles said, "Then take me to have a look."

According to the system of the Shadow Council, every employee who guides customers to shop will get a certain percentage of the other party's transaction volume, so that employee will naturally not refuse, "Okay, please follow me."

……

By the time Shire entered the venue where the auction was held, the high-end auction of the Shadow Council had already reached the middle.

"One time for seven thousand gold coins, two times for seven thousand gold coins, three times for seven thousand gold coins."

"Okay, this "[-]:[-] scale female half-orc action figure" customized by the Black Tower Golem School was purchased by this gentleman. "

The auctioneer in charge of the auction tapped the table three times with a small wooden hammer to confirm the sale of an auction item.

"In addition, according to the bidder's promise, if the gentleman who bought this doll product is willing, he can obtain the membership qualification of the Different Racial Custom Tasting Committee inside the Black Tower."

"Would this gentleman be willing to accept this invitation from the sender?"

"I would, I would love to!"

"I've been wandering for half my life, and I've been stared at by countless people along the way, but I've never forgotten my original intention."

"Now, I have finally found an organization, and my decades of dedication are worth it!"

On the seat behind, a masked bidder's voice was excited, and the mask on his face trembled, and even through a layer of metal mask, he could see the crystal tears in his eyes.

This made the auctioneers sitting around him feel a bit of chill, subconsciously took a few steps back.

Fortunately, the auctioneer still had a sliver of sanity, holding the metal mask with his hands, preventing it from falling off because of being too excited, and preserving his social life at the last moment.

"Okay, please wait a moment after the auction is over, and a staff member will contact you."

The auctioneer seemed to be well-informed at first glance, and he was not surprised by the bidder's appearance. He waved his hand and asked someone to push the female half-orc golem posing with a cart.

Immediately afterwards, the auctioneer's expression suddenly became serious.

"I know what everyone here is here for today, so I won't keep it up anymore."

"The next thing that will be auctioned is the finale of our Shadow Council auction—"

"From [Chief of the Black Tower], [Root of the Forbidden Curse], [Arcane Lord], [The Guardian of the Stars], [Enemy of the Abyss]——"

"Several items used by the legendary strongman Charles Egut once personally used."

boom--

More than half of the guests in the auction sat up straight, and looked at the cart covered with a layer of black cloth, which was slowly pushing towards the auction stage.

"His Majesty Shire, the Deputy Tower Master of the Black Tower, has been living in seclusion, and his whereabouts are unpredictable."

"Even the wizards who study in the arcane city may not have the opportunity to meet his deity, so how can we get his personal items?"

Some customers raised their concerns.

The auctioneer nodded: "This guest's question is reasonable. His Majesty Shire has indeed been rare in the past few years. Even our Shadow Council can hardly know."

"However, everyone has overlooked one point—"

The auctioneer's style changed: "When Shire was not a legend, he also traveled to the Western Continent as an adventurer, and wrote his own illustrious achievements under the name of the "Morning Star" adventure group. "

"These items were left in an adventurer's tavern he frequented ten years ago when His Majesty Shire was still traveling the continent as an adventurer, and the owner of that tavern accidentally cleaned them up recently. Discover."

"According to our shadow parliament's mind detection, memory recovery spells, and multi-party research and verification—"

"We can use the shadow parliament's credit guarantee-these objects are indeed from the hands of His Majesty Shire."

As soon as this remark came out, the guests no longer raised any doubts.

With the status of the Shadow Council in the Western Continent, they will not smash their own signboards for an auction item. Since they have made such a promise, there is nothing wrong with it.

Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, the auctioneer waved his hand and took off the cloth on the cart.

All of a sudden, countless eyes in the auction focused on the small cart.

Those were three small pieces of paper, which looked a bit old, but the writing on them could still be discerned.

Charles casually looked at one of them, and then couldn't help holding his forehead.

There is a line of small characters written on it——

Odd changes to even remains unchanged, and the symbol depends on the quadrant.

Chapter 29 Summer Scholar

Charles rummaged through the spiritual ocean, and finally found the relevant memories of these notes from an inconspicuous corner.

At that time, he had just become a wizard of the third ring, and found that although his total magic power could be increased by killing monsters, the increase in the upper limit of mental power was always quite slow.

The upper limit of spiritual power has always been the biggest bottleneck that has restricted the improvement of the black tower wizards. Except for a few special races that rely on racial talents, the spiritual power of most black tower wizards can only be slowly improved with age .

This is also the reason why most of the legendary mages in the past were quite old, and even an old man with a gray beard like Kieran could be called young and promising.

And by chance, Charles discovered that as long as he kept his brain's high-speed thinking, he could speed up his mental strength training.

So according to the memory of his previous life, he made a lot of test papers for himself. The questions ranged from chemistry to functions to physics. The notes on the cart at this moment were written down by him when he was doing the questions. Mouth sticky notes.

On the other hand, Charles at that time also had the intention of using these incisions to find fellow traversers.

It's just a pity that according to Charles' investigations over the years, he is obviously the first time traveler to come to this world.

So he simply walked all the paths that the traversers could walk, leaving no way for the later generations to walk.

"As you can see, these three pieces of paper have words written by His Majesty Shire at the beginning, but the connotation of these words is difficult to understand."

With a serious expression, the auctioneer carefully took out the three notes from the cart and put them on the display stand for the bidders to watch.

Every piece of paper is surrounded by a miniature transparent magic field, even if a little dust falls, it will be bounced away instantly by the repulsion of the magic field.

"After obtaining these three notes, our Shadow Council specially hired several scholars who have studied the Majesty of Shire and arcane arts to interpret the text, but the progress of the interpretation is not satisfactory."

"Currently, only one note has been deciphered—"

The auctioneer pointed to the leftmost of the three notes, which read "3.141592653589".

"According to the opinion of Archmage Augustus, the chief arcane consultant of the Holy Kingdom of Fares and a well-known Xia scholar, the number written in this note should be pi, which is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to Numerical solution to the ratio of diameters—"

"It's just that, before this, the academic circle only calculated this number to five or six decimal places, but His Majesty Shire has directly increased the accuracy of pi by nearly ten places."

"You must know that if the calculation is performed according to the traditional algorithm, the amount of calculation will be doubled for each digit of precision after the decimal point."

"The opinion of Master Augustus has also been agreed by most of Xia scholars' colleagues."

Charles rubbed his ears, suspecting that he had misunderstood the pronunciation: "What is Xia Scholar?"

And the waiter next to him obviously had received training and had some knowledge of the commodity background of this auction, so he quickly replied: "This guest, Xia Xue, is to study the knowledge of His Majesty Shire."

"This is an academic circle spontaneously formed by scholars from various countries, which can be subdivided into multiple research fields such as life stories, personal preferences, arcane research directions, interpersonal relationships, combat performance analysis and combat power simulation."

"The members of this academic circle are mostly arcanists and well-known scholars from various countries in the Western Continent. Xia Scholar is what they call themselves."

"In addition, some high-level extraordinary colleges have recently put forward proposals to include Xia Xue as a formal elective course into the college's teaching system."

hiss--

Charles imagined the scene where his black and white photo was hung on the classroom blackboard of the Extraordinary Academy, and was pointed at by the instructor of the academy to give lectures to the students in the audience, and he couldn't help but gasped.

"His Majesty Shire is still alive and well, is it necessary to start research now?"

"Your Majesty Shire is indeed still very young, but when it comes to the contribution to the Western Continent and the changes it has brought to people's lives, besides Lord Weimesta, there are several legends in the Western Continent who can be compared with the past thousands of years." Shire's comparison?"

"Even if the first founding monarch of the four major kingdoms of mankind wants to be compared with Shire's crown, I am afraid that it will be almost worthless."

The waiter retorted powerfully, apparently also a loyal fan of Xia Xue: "Those founding monarchs have been written into the history textbooks for future generations to study, and His Majesty Shire certainly has the qualifications."

Although I know you are praising me, but I always feel that there is something wrong...

On the other side, the auctioneer also carefully displayed the remaining two notes one by one.

The contents on the note were "odds change and evens don't change, the symbols look at the quadrant" and "hydrogen helium lithium beryllium boron, carbon nitrogen oxygen fluorine neon".

"The text on the remaining two notes, although some scholars have put forward different guesses—"

"For example, some people think that odd has the same pronunciation as the magic mecha, while even refers to the battle doll produced by the Black Tower Golem School."

"The change of the machine does not change, which means that His Majesty Shire believes that the manufacturing cost of the magic mecha is high and requires skilled pilots to enter the internal control, so it is necessary to add deformation modules to adapt to various combat environments in different forms... ..."

"Battle dolls are cheap, can be mass-produced, and can be remotely controlled through a magic connection. Therefore, it is superfluous to spend resources to add deformation modules. You only need to customize battle dolls of different models and specifications according to different needs and occasions."

"It's just that no scholar's point of view has been recognized by most people."

The auctioneer's voice changed: "However, on the other hand, if it has not been cracked yet, it also means that once it is fully analyzed, it is likely to have quite amazing gains."

"This may imply His Majesty Shire's views and opinions ahead of the entire era, or some special opportunities."

"On the other hand, these three notes, as personal items for Shire's crown that rarely come out on the market, also have a considerable collection value in the field of Xia studies."

"According to the sender's wishes, these three notes will be bundled together for auction."

The auctioneer raised the small wooden hammer in his hand, and tapped lightly on the table, while carefully avoiding the parts around the three notes.

"The base price is [-] imperial gold coins, and each price increase is no less than [-] imperial gold coins."

"The auction begins now."

Chapter 30 "The Forbidden Book of the Dark Demon Sword Maker"

"Fifty-one thousand imperial gold coins."

"Twelve thousand pieces."

"5 gold coins!"

……

The atmosphere in the auction hall was quite enthusiastic, with bids one after another, wave after wave.

If it belongs to other legendary powerhouses, unless it is a legendary weapon that is extremely valuable in itself, it will be extremely difficult to cause such a level of looting.

But Shire's was different.

The experience that Shirna rose like a comet in just ten years and caused earth-shaking changes in the entire Western Continent has always been a topic of great interest to the supernatural beings in the Western Continent.

A considerable number of Xia scholars believe that there must be some shocking secret hidden in Shire's crown, which is why he can break the record of the youngest legend in the Western Continent at such an astonishing speed, and even put forward many speculations about it——
