"Huh? What's wrong?"
Lu Xiu looked down at Nashida in confusion: "Why can't we go to the World Tree?"
Nashida explained with a serious expression, "The World Tree has been polluted. Even the remnant of the Great Compassionate Tree King that remains within it has become extremely aggressive. Many scholars within Xumi have gone mad after their consciousness accidentally connected to the World Tree during their training. If you come into close contact with the World Tree, I'm afraid you'll also be in trouble!"
"I'll pay attention." Lu Xiu didn't care much in his heart, but seeing Nashida so serious, he didn't show it, but just said that he would pay attention.
Nashida was relieved when she saw that Lu Xiu understood the seriousness of the matter. She was really worried that Lu Xiu would just go to the World Tree without caring about anything.
Lu Xiu has helped her so much, she doesn't want to see anything happen to him.
The two had just chatted for a while when Dishia, Tinari and the other two, who had just left, came back.
Lu Xiu gave the three of them a strange look and asked, "You guys just need to go out for a walk to gather intelligence?"
Dixia chuckled and said, "Don't tell me, just go out for a walk and you'll know."
Tinari and Kelai also said with a strange look on their faces: "We both went out for a walk and found out the reason. It was because of this."
Tinari handed over a flyer, and the flyer clearly stated that an auction would be held tomorrow, and there would be only one item in this auction, which was the canned knowledge of the gods.
The auction was held by the Gilded Brigade of the Eye of Akhmar, who had stolen the canned knowledge of the gods from the House of the Decrees.
After taking a look, Lu Xiu put down the flyer in his hand in confusion.
"The members of this Gilded Brigade seem to be a bit out of their minds. They actually took the initiative to expose the goods. Are they really not worried about the people from the Ministry of Justice coming to visit them?"
"No, quite the opposite."
Dixia, however, held a different attitude and said seriously, "According to my friend, the Order of the Holy Trinity has dispatched a large number of soldiers and disciplinary officers, including the notorious disciplinary officer, Seino, known throughout Xumi. They are all rushing towards Omosay Harbor and are expected to arrive tomorrow."
"And now the entire Port of Omosay has been quietly blockaded by the local Ordovician forces. I'm afraid the Gilded Brigade has also heard about it and is rushing to get rid of the canned divine knowledge for safety."
"That's quite clever."
Lu Xiu asked again.
"And what about time?"
"Tonight at eleven o'clock."
Chapter 257: The mantis stalks the cicada, and a bunch of yellow sparrows follow behind
"Eleven o'clock, right? Okay, looks like our nightlife tonight is going to be quite exciting."
"Everyone, go to bed early. We must get this canned divine knowledge. If someone from the Order House gets it, we'll be in big trouble."
Nashida gave some instructions, and no one had any objections, so they all went to stay in the hotel next to the restaurant.
Late at night, Lu Xiu and his companions gathered at the lobby and walked together towards the auction location.
After twisting and turning in Omosay Port, everyone finally arrived at the auction.
It was called an auction, but in fact it was just a backyard with only a dozen or so people in it. They all wore black cloaks to cover their faces. Lu Xiu and his companions' undisguised actions attracted everyone's attention.
"We should have bought a few cloaks earlier." Dixia complained, and then asked everyone to sit down in the empty seats.
The group didn't have to wait too long before Mizri, the leader of the Gilded Brigade of the Eye of Akhmara, came up holding a box.
Mizri looked around, carefully placed the box on the pillar that had been prepared long ago, and then opened it, revealing the golden-colored canned knowledge of God inside.
As soon as the God's Canned Knowledge came on the road, the people in the audience were amazed.
Mizri clapped his hands for silence, then grinned and said, "Everyone, let's cut to the chase. This canned knowledge before you is none other than the Divine Canned Knowledge. We haven't used it yet, so we don't know what's inside. The starting price is one Mora. Please bid accordingly!"
After Mizri announced the starting price, everyone was stunned. They began to discuss in a low voice with their companions and did not dare to bid out loud.
Upon hearing the price, Dishia couldn't help but complain to her companions, "Is Mizri crazy? He sacrificed the lives of several members for this canned divine knowledge, and now he's bidding for it for just one Mora?"
Tinari shook his head and explained, "It's impossible for someone to actually buy a treasure of this level for one Mora. The so-called one Mora is just a token of appreciation."
Ke Lai was nervous but also a little excited. This was her first time attending this kind of underground auction. "Should we bid? I have 30,000 Mora on me to contribute!"
Hearing this, Dixia opened her wallet and took a look. Then she closed her eyes with a look of heartache and sighed, "I only have 10,000 Mora..."
Lu Xiu couldn't help but chuckle and said teasingly, "Dixia, as a mercenary, you only have 10,000 Mora. Have you not had any work in years?"
Dixia smiled awkwardly and said, "Isn't this just daily expenses and changing equipment a bit too much?"
Tinari turned to look at Nashida with some embarrassment: "Lord Grass King, do you... have Mora?"
Nashida blushed, looking a little embarrassed: "I have been under house arrest in the Jingshan Palace, and there is no place where I need Mora..."
Tinari immediately understood the meaning of Nashida's words, which meant not a cent at all.
Tinari sighed helplessly and said, "It seems that this divine knowledge is no longer available to us."
"No no no."
Lu Xiu stretched out his index finger and shook it gently: "It's just Mora, as much as you want, hundreds of millions are not a problem."
Tinari looked at Lu Xiu in surprise, glanced at him several times, and asked, "Do you carry so much Mora with you?"
"Hey, Mora is just a meaningless string of numbers to me."
Lu Xiu had already unlocked the rights to unlimited Morax blocks when he was in Liyue. He could say with certainty that no Morax was as rich as him!
"But I don't plan to use Mora to buy the canned knowledge of the gods."
"Why?"×3
Dixia and the others were all puzzled. Since Lu Xiu said he was rich, why didn't he just buy it directly, which would be more convenient?
Nashida immediately understood Lu Xiu's intention. She glanced at the other bidders with a strange look and said, "Lu Xiu, do you mean to just grab it directly?"
"That's right!"
Lu Xiu snapped his fingers lightly, then revealed an inexplicable smile: "This is the first time I've had the opportunity to kill people and steal treasures. Hehehe, I'm quite excited."
Of course, Lu Xiu didn’t really intend to kill anyone, but the idea of getting something for free was true!
The main feature of the Block Man is to get something for free!
There's a saying among the Block People community: Uh-huh! Uh-huh! It's all Uh-huh!
Never spend money if you can get something for free, this is the principle of the Block People!
After hearing Nashida's explanation, everyone was speechless, but Dixia grinned and looked at Lu Xiu with admiration.
"Lu Xiu, if you become a mercenary, you will definitely make a name for yourself!"
Tinari whispered to Kelai, "Kelai, this is a very bad behavior, don't learn it!"
Lu Xiu then whispered to everyone, "Please pay attention to these bidders and Mizri on the stage. They have the same idea as us!"
After being reminded by Lu Xiu, several people quickly turned their attention to Mizri and the other bidders.
They all noticed that these people were sitting calmly in their chairs, with no intention of bidding. Mizri was not at all anxious about this situation, as if it had nothing to do with him that the God Canned Knowledge could not make money.
Tinari immediately guessed what these people were thinking and frowned, saying, "I understand. I'm afraid these people have also heard about Senor's arrival in Omos Harbor. They are also waiting for someone to take advantage of them and buy the canned knowledge of the gods. While distracting Senor, they can quietly take away the canned knowledge of the gods. This will not only ensure their own safety, but also get the goods for free."
"That's right." Lu Xiu nodded, looked around and grinned, "The mantis stalks the cicada, and there are also a group of yellow sparrows following behind. We just have to wait."
Mizri stood on the stage and waited for a long time, but no one in the audience bid. He couldn't help but ask, "You can't lose money on a Mora, and you can't be cheated. Are you really not going to bid?"
Perhaps moved by Mizri's words, a cloaked man sitting in the corner raised his hand and said indifferently, "Two Moras."
When they heard someone shouting a price, everyone's eyes were focused on it, and their eyes hidden under the cloaks were shining, as if they saw a scapegoat and a sucker.
Mizri also raised his arms excitedly: "Two Moras once!"
"Two Mora twice!"
"Two Moras three times! Deal! Congratulations to this bitch... ahem, congratulations to this gentleman!"
Chapter 258: El Haisen
"Then this canned divine knowledge is sold for one Mora! Congratulations, sir!"
Mizri happily walked down holding the God's Canned Knowledge and handed it to the man, while holding out his hand for Mora.
"Haha, sir, don't forget to give it to Mora."
The man in the black cloak was a little surprised. He just shouted and asked to give it a try, but the deal actually happened?
This made him a little suspicious, but under Mizri's repeated urging, he took out a Mora and placed it in Mizri's hand.
"Okay, the money and goods are settled. Please be careful when walking at night, sir."
Seeing that his plan was successful, Mizri couldn't help but reveal a cruel smile at the corner of his mouth.
The other bidders couldn't help but laugh and applauded in congratulations.
Seeing that the auction was over, Lu Xiu was the first to stand up and called out to his companions, "Okay, let's go first. The main event will start later."
After putting away the canned knowledge of God, the man in the cloak left in a hurry, not knowing that behind him, the bidders and Mizri who remained at the scene were all looking at his back with sneers.
Mizri's men came out and asked, "Boss, our men have blocked all the intersections outside and are ready to take action at any time."
"Well, then go ahead. This canned knowledge of the gods is not so easy to take away. It is our hope to resurrect Lord Chi Wang!"
"Yes!"
The other bidders were also tempted and hurriedly left the yard.
------------
The man walked in the alley, looked around, then took off his hood and said coldly in the direction of the alley exit: "No need to hide."
Mizri came out with a group of younger brothers, playing with steel knives in their hands with a grim smile on their faces.
"If you know what's good for you, just hand over the canned knowledge of the gods. Don't you think the things I bought from Mora are too hot to handle?"
"I bought the things myself, so why would I think they were hot? But you, Mizri, sold the things to someone else and then turned around and tried to steal them away. Haha, I can't say anything about that."
The man's mocking tone made Mizri very unhappy.
Mizri's men also recognized the man's strength from the corner of his clothes, and said in surprise: "Boss, this man is from the Ministry of Justice!"
"what?"
Mizri was stunned for a moment and looked around panicking, fearing that he had been surrounded by the disciplinary officers of the Ordinance Court.
After looking around, Mizri didn't find any trace of the Church of God, which made him feel relieved. However, when he turned around, he saw the man looking at him with a mocking expression.
This made Mizri furious: "Boy, don't think I won't mess with you just because you're from the House of Lords! Tell me your name if you're capable!"
"Haha, don't worry. I'm just an ordinary clerk of the Ministry of Justice, Elhaisen. You don't have to worry about incurring the wrath of the Ministry of Justice if you attack me."
"That's fine, that's fine."
Mizri secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then waved his arm and said, "Let's go together!"
Mizri's men immediately squeezed into the narrow alley, waving steel knives and surrounded Elhaisen.
Elhaisen looked at the group of people calmly, then drew his sword, and the grass element began to condense on his body.
"Relying on the large crowds to squeeze into this narrow alley is not a wise choice."
Elhaisen stepped forward and easily knocked down three enemies with one sword. The remaining enemies did not dare to attack because of the small space and were afraid of attacking their own people.
On the roof, Lu Xiu and his group drank the invisibility potion and stood there openly to watch the show.
Yandora watched the fight below, her eyes sparkling with wonder: "Wow, this guy is so powerful!"
A hint of approval flashed in Dixia's eyes: "I didn't expect that the clerk of the Ministry of Justice would have such martial arts skills. The Ministry of Justice really can't be underestimated."
After learning about Elhaisen's identity, Lu Xiu couldn't help but complain in his heart. No matter which world, aren't those with high combat power all civil servants?
After glancing down, Nashida turned to Lu Xiu and asked, "There are many people around here who share the same idea as us. Lu Xiu, do you have the confidence to snatch the God's Canned Knowledge from them?"
"Don't worry, unless the gods intervene, this thing will be killed today."
While a few people were chatting, Elhaisen below had already knocked all the Gilded Brigade to the ground, and even Mizri had Elhaisen holding a sword to his neck.
Elhaisen looked at Mizri indifferently and asked, "Are you still planning to resist now?"
Mizri gritted his teeth and could not speak, he could only stare at Elhaisen angrily.
Seeing that he was still resisting so stubbornly, Elhaisen simply swung his sword and cut his neck. Mizri's eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Elhaisen sneered disdainfully: "What a coward! I just used the back of my sword and you fainted from fear."
