Even for the auction of the Poisonous Plague Fang dagger, Su Li participated and drove the price up to 47,000 Golden Crowns.

Ultimately, this dagger was successfully auctioned off by a Rat People’s puppet at the price of 48,000 Golden Crowns.

However, by repeatedly inflating the prices, everyone remembered this lavishly extravagant territory.

The Hesse Territory, which had been unknown for an entire year, suddenly and directly gained fame across the entire Border Prince’s Territory with this move.

While Su Li intentionally attracted attention, Vandar finally managed to win the inconspicuous Dawn Secret Box for only 400 Golden Crowns, which no one even noticed.

Finally, the auction proceeded to its last segment.

When the four-piece set brought by Hesse Territory was presented on stage, the auctioneer excitedly introduced to everyone, "Next, allow me to grandly introduce this year’s potentially most precious Legendary set—coming from the distant frontier, a fantasy combination made from the Anarik Empress’s spider silk: the Fantasy Stockings, Kisser, Star Dew Sweet Orange, and Encounter Orange Tide!"

"Firstly, these black stockings, created by a Master of Witchcraft using spider silk from the Anarik Empress with a lifespan of several hundred years. Its magical effects need no explanation; surely all here are aware that it not only makes women’s legs more beautiful and smooth, but it also gives them a longer appearance. No woman can resist such beautiful Empress stockings; even a Cinderella transformed into the most charming princess upon wearing them. Let me particularly emphasize that just last fall, such a pair of stockings fetched the astronomical price of 3,700 Golden Crowns at Marle Castle!"

"The Kisser, a most fashionable pet among the Empire’s noblewomen. Just one kiss can rejuvenate a woman’s youth and bring her back to her glorious days. Many perhaps have great misgivings about it due to certain biased rumors. But let me say this: where there are venomous snakes, the antidote is never far away. The supplier of this Kisser has provided a purifying fruit, the Star Dew Sweet Orange, capable of cleansing almost any curses, diseases, and plagues."

"The perfume made from it, Encounter Orange Tide, further greatly enhances a woman’s charm and charisma."

"This set of stockings, Kisser, and 4 Star Dew Sweet Oranges along with 4 bottles of Encounter Orange Tide is an exceptionally rare treasure for any Duchess or distinguished woman. Bidding starts at 10,000 Golden Crowns! Each increment must be no less than 1,000 Golden Crowns!"

The audience immediately plunged into a frenzied pace; many noblewomen had come specifically for this goal today.

Almost as soon as the auctioneer’s voice had dropped, the audience was engulfed in a fervent bidding atmosphere.

"11,000 Golden Crowns!"

"13,000 Golden Crowns!"

"18,000 Golden Crowns!"

Quickly, Su Li saw Senator Smith from the neighboring VIP room No. 3 raise his paddle: "25,000 Golden Crowns!"

Su Li realized that in this bidding process, his and the territory ministers’ valuation would be at least 2 to 3 times overvalued!

This speaks to the vast wealth of Marle Castle, but is also closely linked to the success of this auction, as these noblewomen are willing to spend much more than those in the Border Prince’s Territory for a life of luxury and indulgence.

The auctioneer above was also excitedly saying, "25,000 Golden Crowns! Is there anyone else willing to bid? If not, this precious and priceless set goes to the distinguished guest in room No. 3."

"26,000 Golden Crowns!"

"26,000 Golden Crowns!" The auctioneer’s voice even trembled with excitement: "Is there anyone else willing to bid?"

"26,000 Golden Crowns going once!"

"26,000 Golden Crowns going twice!"

"27,000 Golden Crowns!" A mysterious voice from box No. 9 suddenly raised a paddle.

Su Li felt a bit of regret; this Kisser would be useless to Lady Bayonetta. Otherwise, she and Senator Smith could have driven the price easily past 30,000 Golden Crowns.

And 27,000 Golden Crowns was already the limit for this treasure set; even a Count’s Territory or Duke’s Territory would find it difficult to spend so much wealth on a purely pleasurable luxury item.

One should know that 27,000 Golden Crowns is enough to pay the salary of 5,000 Elite Knights for a year. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Only some foolish women would say, isn’t it just a year’s feed for 5,000 stinking beasts? The Empire is never short of two-legged beasts.

Unless they’re the idling nobles of Marle Castle, anyone would be left jittery at the thought of buying such luxury.

Finally, this luxury item sold for nearly three times Su Li’s estimate, successfully to box No. 9.

And Su Li, with the addition of the Rare Level dagger, reaped over 80,000 Golden Crowns, and smoothly acquired the Tears of Mercy pendant and Dawn Secret Box.

When President Elle finished calculating the commission and delivered the auction funds, Su Li also saw Lady Bayonetta emerge from the room.

This noblewoman didn’t appear to be driven mad by Smith’s actions; instead, she wore a bright smile. As she passed VIP room No. 6, she shot a charming smile at Su Li and said, "Knight from the Bauhinia family, is it? I remember you. Thank you for your generous donation, spending 20,000 in gold to buy my useless pendant."

Su Li, in equally good spirits, said, "I hope that when you realize what you’ve lost, you can still smile as brightly."

"Oh?" The smile on Bayonetta’s face momentarily froze, unsure if Su Li had indeed picked up a bargain from her or was just maintaining a facade.
