“Eight million elemental crystal stones!”

“Eight and a half million elemental crystal stones!”

“Nine million elemental crystal stones!”

In the auction, the competing bids carried on like a perpetual wave, never-ending in the ear. However, in just a short half an hour, the price had risen to nine million elemental crystal stones.

In luxury suite number twenty-eight, Wizard Darknight’s eyes were bloodshot, fixed steadily upon the puppet on the podium. This puppet which was comparable to an Eighth-level Spell Caster excited him to no end.

Nevertheless, as he observed the constantly clambering, terrifying price, Wizard Darknight could only shake his head slightly. Even though he governed Eternal Night Mountain, and was counted among the relatively wealthy, he was still far behind those distinguished guests in the luxury suites.

“Lady Phillie, how many elemental crystal stones are left from the amount that we’ve brought today?”

Merlin suddenly turned toward Lady Phillie and asked.

Lady Phillie began to check. After her inspection, she said in a low voice, “Wizard Merlin, this time we’ve prepared thirteen million elemental crystal stones. This is the highest number of elemental crystal stones which Bisque City could mobilize for now. Earlier, we had bid successfully for the Hallucinatory Heart, so now we’re only left with six million elemental crystal stones!”

“We’re only left with six million?”

An expression of disappointment clouded Merlin’s face. He was extremely interested in the alchemy formula that could transfigure Eighth-level puppets. This was the item which he was most interested in other than the Hallucinatory Heart throughout this auction.

Nonetheless, it was a pity that he, who had bid for the Hallucinatory Heart, did not have enough financial resources to compete against the other distinguished guests.

In the end, the puppet formula was sold at nine million and eight hundred thousand elemental crystal stones, a price close to the sky-high price of ten million. Although this was an unreasonably high price, one obtained the formula in exchange. If one was able to successfully transfigure multiple Eighth-level puppets, then it would be worth more than ten million elemental crystal stones.

Two premium auction items had been profitably auctioned off at prices which Dara City was satisfied with. Dara City was even slightly taken aback at the final price of this puppet formula.

“The following item is the final item for today, and it’s also the most important item in this auction!”

The charming Seventh-level female Wizard appeared solemn. The auction had sold off two premium auction items in succession. Now, this was also the final item of the auction, a treasure more precious than the Hallucinatory Heart and the Eighth-level puppet formula.

Every Spell Caster directed their gaze to the Seventh-level Wizard who was on the podium.

“Hehe, is that treasure really about to appear?”

“This time, I’m determined to get it!”

“I wonder what this final treasure really is…”

A few Spell Casters seemed to know what this final item was, bursting with eagerness to bid for it with determination. Other Spell Casters did not seem to know what this last auction item was.

Merlin narrowed his eyes slightly. This auction had broadened his horizons. The Eighth-level puppet formula had tempted him. It was because he did not have enough elemental crystal stones that he had to give up somewhat regretfully.

This final treasure was clearly more valuable than the Eighth-level formula. Merlin did not know what it was that was worthy of being the final premium item of the auction.

Therefore, he looked toward the podium in excited spirits as well.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that all of you know that the Glorious Palace had recently issued a wanted notice. Those wanted are a group who worship the wicked god. Over the past millennium, the believers of the wicked god have never truly become extinct. Each time these believers are discovered, they become the highest priority of the Glorious Palace.

“Therefore, this time, the Glorious Palace has announced a generous reward. Anyone who could wipe out this group of believers would be allowed entry into the Glorious Pavilion of the Glorious Palace and stay there for one entire day.”

This news was perhaps not known to low-level Spell Casters, who were now baffled. However, the powerful Spell Casters had received news of this long ago.

Nonetheless, the believers of the wicked god seemed to be inextinguishable. Back then, Wizard Mogan had spent a century slaying the gods. Ever since then, those believers of the wicked god would emerge from time to time.

Moreover, each time they showed up, they would attract the most urgent attention of the Glorious Palace, who would always send forth their experts to wipe the believers out as soon as possible.

It was just that in the past few years, these believers of the wicked god had cropped up again and again. It was hard to slaughter all of them, so the Glorious Palace might as well send out this notice, offering some reward, prompting all the Spell Casters of this dimension to hunt down these believers of the wicked god.

“What’s the Glorious Pavilion?”

Merlin lifted his head and looked toward Wizard Darknight as he asked in a low voice.

“Master, the Glorious Pavilion was personally erected by Wizard Mogan. It contains various spells and even Pandora Demon Abilities, and any Great Wizard can leave a unique imprint in the pavilion such as spells, runology, and so on. Therefore, for anyone who enters the Glorious Pavilion, not only is it a huge honor symbolically, but one may also acquire unimaginable benefits.”

Wizard Darknight evidently paid closer attention to the Glorious Palace, and thus his explanation of the Glorious Pavilion was extremely detailed.

“Even Great Wizards can enter, and they may be willing to leave behind imprints and reflections. There’s a huge possibility that a few Spell Casters from beyond the heavens had left some imprints in there. Perhaps there’s some explanation about dimension coordinates in there!”

Countless considerations flashed across Merlin’s mind instantly, especially the possibility of information regarding dimension coordinates. Besides the Spell Casters who came from the Void Zone, no one else would know about the dimensions, let alone dimension coordinates.

Merlin possessed the coordinates of the Ecuador Dimension. At the same time, Wizard Saitu had left behind the coordinates of the dimension he occupied in the Thunder Maxim.

Naturally, Merlin wanted to visit these two dimensions but did not know how to locate these coordinates. Only after obtaining the relevant information would he be able to search for the corresponding dimensions according to their coordinates.

“The Glorious Pavilion!”

Merlin secretly memorized this place. This might be his only hope to learn about dimension coordinates.

The female Wizard paused for a moment, then softly pulled off a piece of red cloth on the podium. Underneath that cloth was a transparent Memory Crystal, in which one could leave behind a memory message.

“The final auction item is this piece of Memory Crystal. As for the message it contains, hehe, I believe all of you will be interested. The message is mainly about a secret hideout used by a group of believers of the wicked god!”

“Babble.”

As soon as the female Wizard spoke, the entire auction venue burst out in a talk. Countless Spell Casters were unable to locate any secret hideout of those believers.

Once one knew the hideout of those believers, it was a done deal. One could locate those believers of the wicked god, kill them, thus completing the mission set by the Glorious Palace. One would then get to enter the Glorious Pavilion for an entire day.

Staying in the Glorious Pavilion for an entire day was better than any treasure. Back then, as Wizard Dara finished a certain mission of the Glorious Palace, he was able to enter that pavilion and stay for an entire day despite being merely a Seventh-level Spell Caster.

Thereafter, in a mere five years’ time, Wizard Dara became an Eighth-level Spell Caster, one who was the strongest amongst his level. He was even able to escape unscathed when faced with Ninth-level Spell Casters!

Furthermore, the fortune of entering the Glorious Pavilion did not merely belong to Wizard Dara alone. In general, each Spell Caster who entered the Glorious Pavilion had ultimately become the overlord of a group or a very formidable Wizard!

Therefore, now that the Glorious Palace had issued a mission, they had already stirred up the entire dimension, tempting countless Spell Casters with the chance to enter the Glorious Pavilion. However, this was not that easy, and only the Glorious Wizards of the Glorious Palace could enter and exit the pavilion as they wished.

Perhaps this was why the Glorious Wizards did not take on missions in general. It was merely a chance to enter the Glorious Pavilion. To those Ninth-level Glorious Wizards, this could not even be called a reward.

Such a reward was not a rarity to the Glorious Wizards but other Wizards would go crazy over it.

Now, the chance to enter the Glorious Pavilion was right before their eyes. As long as they obtained the Memory Crystal, located the whereabouts of the believers of the wicked god, and then kill them, they would be able to enter the Glorious Pavilion.

Therefore, many Spell Casters were looking at this piece of Memory Crystal with wild passion burning in their eyes.

“The opening bid of the Memory Crystal is five million elemental crystal stones. Each bid must raise the price by no less than fifty thousand elemental crystal stones!”

The Seventh-level female Wizard drew in a deep breath and finally announced the starting bid of the last auction item. As the final premium auction item of this auction, it was not disappointing indeed.

“Great, it really is a Memory Crystal!”

“According to rumors, these believers attempted to awaken a wicked god from thin air once more but this caused them to become heavily scrutinized by Wizard Mogan. They really are stupid. Even the wicked gods who were at their peak were defeated by Wizard Mogan, to say nothing of a recently awakened god.”

“The believers of the wicked god are a group of lunatics who know no reason. However, this group of lunatics can be exchanged for a chance to enter the Glorious Pavilion. This is an opportunity that must not be missed.”

As this involved the entry into the legendary Glorious Pavilion, even the most cool-headed Spell Caster would be incapable of remaining calm now. The first ones to bid were the distinguished guests from those luxury suites, and they had clearly come here for the Memory Crystal. They raised the price one after another until it surpassed the previous auction items by far.

Very soon, the price of the Memory Crystal had broken through the mark of ten million, and it was continuing to rise higher. Merlin could not help but shake his head. Even if he had not bid for the Hallucinatory Heart, he would have no way of competing against these distinguished guests.

In terms of riches, Merlin who had a shallow foundation still could not compete against these Spell Casters with extensive resources.

The price of the Memory Crystal had passed ten million and was soaring further toward a sky-high price. Suddenly, a frigid chill appeared all around the auction venue at an unknown time.

“The Memory Crystal is mine!”

From beyond the doors, a Spell Caster with handsome features barged in. He was dressed in a long, white Wizard robe. With a magic staff in his hand, he pointed casually toward the podium.

Instantly, the Seventh-level female Wizard was surrounded by emerging layers of dense ice, which froze her in place. Following that, the mysterious white-robed Wizard immediately lunged towards the podium.

The white-robed Wizard’s target was that transparent piece of Memory Crystal!
