My cousin is becoming a legend.

Chapter 25 Falician Book

That potion was auctioned off for a long time.

It was eventually bought by a Umaman for 1100 silver nis.

Items were continuously brought up for auction.

Lynn was not interested.

"The next exhibit is also a trophy from the front lines."

Phoebe lifted the red cloth off the display vehicle.

"This is a set of alchemy tools. If you keep it as a collectible, it will be a very rare item. But if you try to use it for alchemy, then I imagine the next day a high priest from the church will personally visit your residence."

Phoebe made a half-warning joke, which drew laughter from the room.

"The starting bid for this item is 100 silver nis. Please begin the bidding."

"110 Silver Nethers"

"120 Silver Nethers"

......

Prices continue to rise.

Lynn, however, showed little interest.

This item is clearly something the church uses for fishing.

It has no value other than being a collectible.

Besides, Lynn doesn't need this kind of thing right now.

He can now make this kind of first-tier, first-star potion by kneading it in an iron pot.

"But is the scale of this auction really this large? They even brought in something like this."

Lynn secretly pondered the idea of ​​selling the potions.

Meanwhile, the next item was pushed up.

Phoebe lifted the red cloth and introduced with a smile, "This item is an ancient book written in Old French Rik. Due to technical limitations, we do not know its contents. However, due to its age, it has certain collectible value. The starting bid is 50 silver nis. Please begin the bidding."

The words fell silent.

It seems no one would want to spend such a huge sum of money to buy an ancient book they can't understand, especially since it's a foreign book.

Seeing this, Lynn had an idea.

He had heard of the name Faric.

That was a country that had already perished.

There are some uncertain rumors about this country.

As is well known, the Kingdom of Sirnus lies to the north of the Kingdom of Uma.

Further north lies the Kingdom of Areca, the place with the most advanced alchemy and the longest history of alchemy.

Why does the Kingdom of Areca have this honor?

The royal family of Areca inherited the legacy of the Kingdom of Falik.

In the century following the fall of the Kingdom of Falik, Areca received countless libraries and great alchemists.

This laid the foundation for the world's leading alchemy nation.

It is said that the Faric people at that time were extremely fond of alchemy, to the point that almost every household learned alchemy and had access to alchemical products.

There are countless books on alchemy.

Its technical sophistication and breadth of knowledge far surpass those of current alchemy books.

Therefore, this ancient book is most likely a book about alchemy.

A mere 50 silver nis, is it worth the gamble?

Even a storybook can be used to improve the skill of "reading widely".

In short, you won't lose out no matter what.

Lynn held up the sign.

"50 Silver Nethers"

The host on stage, Phoebe, breathed a sigh of relief and said with a bright smile, "Mr. Number 150 has bid 50 silver Nice. Does anyone want to raise the bid?"

There was no movement for a long time.

Phoebe was a little disappointed and picked up the small wooden hammer.

"50 silver Nethers, for the first time."

No one raised the price.

Phoebe raised the small wooden hammer again.

"50 silver nis, for the second time."

Lynn was overjoyed.

Just as Phoebe was about to deliver the final blow.

A discordant voice broke in.

"I'll bid 60 silver Nethers!"

Lynn frowned.

I never expected that someone would actually pay a premium for something like this.

He held up the sign.

"65 Silver Nethers"

"75 Silver Nethers!"

Lynn raised the sign again.

"80 Silver Nethers"

"90 Silver Nethers!"

Lynn hesitated and did not raise the price further.

If this continues, he will have no choice but to give up on the book.

It's really strange. The deal was almost done, so why would someone keep coming and relentlessly raising the price?

And the voice sounded somewhat familiar...

Miss Phoebe was happy nonetheless.

"Mr. Number 5 has bid 90 silver Nice. Does anyone else want to raise the bid?"

Lynn looked in the direction of number 5, and his face instantly turned gloomy.

It's Najib.

Najib from the alchemy workshop.

It seems he noticed me just now, and is he disgusting me now?

But since they're acquaintances, things are easier.

Lynn raised his sign and continued to raise the price.

His budget was only 100 silver dollars.

But whether he can buy it or not, he has to get this book.

"95 Silver Nethers"

"105 Silver Nethers!"

Lynn did not raise the price further.

Miss Phoebe finally announced the results.

"The hammer falls for the third time, and the auction is complete!"

"Congratulations to Mr. Number 5 for winning this ancient book with a bid of 105 silver dollars!"

Lynn calmly looked up, while Najib in the private room was thoroughly enjoying himself.

That idiot.

Lynn couldn't understand why he still dared to provoke her.

Items were auctioned off one by one.

Finally, the auction came to an end.

Miss Phoebe gave the closing remarks.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in twenty minutes the renowned bard Violet Fox will be performing the opera 'The Graceful Wind' on this venue. Please do not leave if you are interested..."

Lynn kept her eyes on room number 5.

Seeing Najib leave, Lynn also got up from his seat.

On the street, Najib searched for his carriage.

He was in a great mood at the moment.

I never expected to run into that damn guy tonight, and God actually gave him the chance to disgust Lynn.

It's truly a blessing from heaven.

Najib decided to have a few more drinks at his mansion tonight and invite two mistresses over for a proper celebration.

Just as Najib was immersed in joy, a hand with tremendous force dragged him directly into a side alley.

Najib's expression changed, and he reached for the knife at his waist.

However, before he could react, Lynn snatched the knife from his hand.

Lynn smiled and said, "Isn't this my dear colleague, Mr. Najib? I heard you just bought an antique book; is that true?"

Najib was startled when he saw Lynn's face.

He was scared because he felt guilty.

But after careful consideration, Najib realized that he had not violated any laws or regulations, and immediately became assertive.

"Lynn! Are you trying to rob me in broad daylight? Let me tell you, that's illegal!"

Lynn waved his hand and smiled innocently, "Mr. Naji, you've misunderstood me. How could I possibly steal your things? I just wanted to borrow them to take a look."

Najib gave a cold laugh.

"Fine, Lynn, then I choose not to lend it to you."

Najib turned to leave, but Lynn pushed him back.

Naji was just an alchemist; he was no match for Lynn, a dual-profession individual.

He slammed his head against the wall, clutching his shoulder and crying out in pain.

Lynn still wore that smile.

"Mr. Najib, if you don't want to sleep in this dirty alley with rats, then lend me the book."

Najib's eyes showed some fear. He reluctantly took the ancient book out of his pocket, but he still kept arguing.

"Lynn, you've gone too far! The Baron won't let you get away with this!"

Lynn laughed and said, "Wasn't this Mr. Naji's own choice? And I would also welcome you to report this matter to the Baron. I am quite looking forward to how the Baron will handle it."

Najib was so angry that he trembled all over, his finger hovering in mid-air, pointing at Lynn, unable to speak for a long time.

Lynn didn't have time to waste any more time with him.

He still needed to go to the theater and wait for Night Fox to make contact with him.

"That's settled then, Mr. Najib, I'll be taking my leave now."

Lynn turned and headed back towards the White Horse Tavern.

As Lynn reached the door, the hunchbacked man blocked her way again.

They said you have to pay money to enter.

Lynn handed over a silver coin, somewhat speechless.

He rushed to the venue.

The play had only just begun.

On the stage, a stunningly beautiful woman with platinum blonde hair is softly reciting poetry.

The sound was ethereal and sacred.

Lynn was taken aback.

It sounds amazing; it actually evokes the effect of a mixed voice from a past life using only the vocal cords.

Is she a superhuman?

Or rather, is she the so-called Night Fox?
