Chapter 123 Energy Recovery Magical Device
Top floor of China World Trade Center——

The auction began not long after the three of them sat down. The auctioneer stood on the stage and introduced each item one by one, each of which was priced over five million.

"Muzi, have you sold the seeds of that pseudo-terror demon?"

At this time, Mo Fan remembered that the pseudo-demon seed he found in Jinlin City was still in Xu Mu's possession. It was an item worth 40 million!
"I forgot about this a long time ago." Xu Mu took out the seeds of the pseudo-terror demon from the storage space, threw them to Zhao Manyan, and said, "Old Zhao, I'm counting on you."

"The one from Jinlin City?" Zhao Manyan took a closer look, then looked at Xu Mu and the others suspiciously.

How did these two guys get the pseudo-demon seeds?
"Yes, the auction has already started. Can we add more items?" Mo Fan nodded and asked.

"Of course, it's not possible to auction ordinary items, but the seeds of the pseudo-terror demon are different. But instead of selling this thing cheaply to others, why not sell it to me?"

Zhao Manyan immediately put away the pseudo-demon seed, patted Mo Fan on the shoulder and said, "One price, 60 million, how about it?"

"Sixty million..." Mo Fan thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Although the bloodline of the pseudo-terrorist demon is excellent and can grow into an extremely powerful general in the future, the bloodline of the plant-type demon has great disadvantages, and normal summoning mages will not buy it at all.

Only plant-based mages would purchase Pseudo-Demon Seeds, and plant-based mages are extremely rare.

The only plant-based mage that left a deep impression on Mo Fan was Mu Nujiao. It was a pity that she didn't need it, otherwise he could have sold it to her.

"Great! I'll exchange it for you after the auction is over. The price might be even higher than 60 million." Zhao Manyan said with a smile.

He bought it on behalf of an elder in his family who was a plant expert. 60 million was just his lowest estimated price, and the actual transaction price would definitely be higher.

At this time, the auctioneer began to introduce the next item.

"The next item to be auctioned is a water-attributed elemental spirit seed - [Purple Water]. It was taken from the flower sea in the west, and its magic amplification is 2.5 times..."

The starting price was set at 15 million, and soon someone raised the price to 17 million, and then to 20 million and so on.

"Is there no additional effect of the spirit seed?" Xu Mu stroked his chin and thought.

This spirit seed was too weak. Its magic amplification was only 2.5 times, and it didn't even have the most basic spirit seed additional effects. This really made him lose interest in participating in the auction.

"Aren't you going to make an offer?" Zhao Manyan turned to look at Xu Mu in confusion and asked.

"It's rubbish. It doesn't even have the added effect of a spirit seed. I don't like it." Xu Mu shook his head.

“That’s right. With your strength, if there is no additional effect of the spirit seed, it’s better not to have it.” Zhao Manyan nodded in agreement.

For mid-level mages, it doesn't really matter whether the elemental spirit seeds have additional effects or not; what matters is how many times the magic is amplified.

After reaching a high level, the mage's training system becomes more complicated. Due to limited personal energy, high-level mages need to devote different levels of concentration to the three aspects of major magic, secondary magic, and auxiliary magic.

Among them, the quality of the main magic is very critical, everything must be the best, and although the progress of the secondary magic may be slower, it is only slightly inferior to the main magic in strength.

As for the secondary magic, its cultivation and combat effectiveness may not be satisfactory, but it must have some unique features.

Water spirits are often accompanied by various additional effects, such as giving water magic the ability to heal itself, having corrosive properties, or heavy water properties that enhance its attack power, and other well-known additional effects.

But this kind of special water spirit species is often very rare and expensive.

Even Zhao Manyan, who came from a wealthy family, did not pursue luxury when choosing a water-type spirit seed. He only chose a spirit seed with an amplification of 3 times and an ordinary effect, instead of choosing a better one.

“There are quite a few spirit seeds being auctioned today. I still remember one is a water elemental spirit seed.” Zhao Manyan said.

"I hope there are better spirit seeds." Xu Mu sighed. If it doesn't work, the water system can only find a spirit seed at random. The transaction price of the [Purple Water] spirit seed was finally settled at 23 million, and the next item was a special energy recovery magic weapon.

"This is an extremely special energy recovery magic weapon. It was made by a favorite disciple of a certain forging master. It can increase the energy recovery speed of water magic to an astonishing 300%!"

The auctioneer introduced its origin and magical features in detail.

"What? The energy recovery rate increases by 300%? Such a powerful magic weapon actually appears at the auction!" There were bursts of exclamations from the crowd in the audience, and people's faces showed expressions of disbelief.

Not only the others, but even Xu Mu and the other three could not help but be shocked.

The energy recovery rate of 300% is quite amazing even if it is limited to water magic!
For a magician who majors or secondarily studies water, obtaining this magic weapon will greatly increase his strength.

Zhao Manyan's eyes sparkled with excitement, and his expression clearly conveyed his determination to obtain this magic weapon.

To be honest, Xu Mu was also very attracted by this magic weapon.

His water magic power has the effect of nourishing and strengthening the body. If you possess this magic weapon, it will greatly improve the progress of your physical fitness, and a physical breakthrough will be just around the corner.

But he didn't think he could beat Zhao Manyan. After all, he couldn't invest 300 million yuan in one go to bid for this magic weapon.

"However, it should be noted that since this was forged by an apprentice, even though the forging materials are all top-grade, this magic weapon is only effective against mid-level Nebulae and below."

“Once it reaches a high-level galaxy, its effect will be weakened to 150%.” The auctioneer’s tone was filled with embarrassment and regret.

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, everyone's enthusiasm cooled instantly, and their previous expectations disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

“What a rubbish magic weapon…” Mo Fan couldn’t help but complain.

“It’s really rubbish.” Zhao Manyan also retracted his excited gaze and echoed Mo Fan’s words.

“I guess the starting price of this magic weapon will not be higher than 20 million.” Zhao Manyan said.

"Twenty million is too high. I think a little over ten million is about right." Mo Fan said after thinking for a moment.

"Can you two show a little respect to the blacksmith?" Xu Mu gave them a dissatisfied look.

This is a magic weapon forged with top-grade materials, how could it be so expensive?

"Then how much do you think it's worth?" Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan looked at Xu Mu at the same time and asked.

"Five million, right? It can't be more expensive than the Nebula Magic Device, right?" Xu Mu answered uncertainly.

After all, the price of the Nebula Magic Weapon is around 20 million, and although this energy recovery magic weapon looks very powerful, for most mid-level mages, except hunters, they will not go into the wild, so this magic weapon is actually quite useless.

Hunters usually work in teams, with as few as a few people and as many as a dozen. Energy-restoring potions are a must-have for everyone, and they can be found in large quantities.

There is relatively little intermediate magic energy. When there is no magic energy left, they will stop to rest and recover. They will save as much as possible. No one will buy this so-called useless magic weapon.

"The starting price for this magic weapon is ten million!" the auctioneer announced loudly.

“It’s just as I expected.” Mo Fan said.

"Ten million? This probably just barely covers the cost of materials." Zhao Manyan smacked his lips. He had originally thought that the blacksmith behind the scenes would set the starting price at twenty million because of the expensive materials.

It seems that this person understands the market situation quite well.
