The farce brought about by the druid soon ended with the emcee walking out onto the stage.
Everyone turned their attention back to the stage.
The druid sitting next to Toji Hisami lowered his voice:
"Boy, you are really not afraid of death."
"Haha, after we leave here, everyone will be living in different places. I won’t be doing right by my parents if I don’t give you a slap."
Toji Hisami still clasped his hands in front of him without looking at the druid.
This gesture made the druid even more angry.
But at the same time, Toji Hisami’s calm attitude also made him feel a little worried.
In his opinion, Toji Hisami was so calm because of his monstrous background.
Yet thinking that he was forced to hand over the seed made him feel heartbroken.
"Boy, do you really think I can’t find you?"
"If you want to find me, it will only be possible if I cultivate that seed, right?"
"Um?"
"Aren’t you afraid that I will turn around and give that seed to others? For example, the king’s leader? Do you dare to go then?"
"Hiss..."
The druid took a breath and felt like his teeth were aching.
Indeed, he had this idea from the beginning.
That seed was very special. As long as it was cultivated successfully, he would be able to recognize the thing at a glance and catch it accurately when the time came.
But he had not expected that Toji Hisami had seen through this already.
If he really transferred the seed to others, especially the king’s leader he mentioned, he really didn’t have the ability to ask for it back.
Not to mention a royal territory, he was not capable of confronting a duchy either.
When he thought of this, the druid felt extremely regretful about why he had suddenly approached Toji Hisami today.
"Actually, I think there is still a possibility of cooperation between you and me."
Toji Hisami suddenly turned his head and looked at the livid druid next to him.
At this time, the emcee on the stage had already begun to introduce the first auction item of the day, which was a stone slab with a mysterious skill.
But the druid paid no attention. Obviously his purpose this time was not this stone slab.
After hearing Toji Hisami’s words, the druid almost laughed out of sheer anger and turned to look at Toji Hisami.
"Why, do you think I will cooperate with you after you blackmailed me?"
"I tell you, it’s impossible!"
"Even if I am taken out of here and my territory is destroyed, I will never cooperate with you!"
The druid’s attitude was very determined, but Toji Hisami remained calm.
He smiled and said to the druid:
"You are very powerful in cultivating plant seeds, but in fact, I am not weak either."
"This seed, if I guessed correctly, should be a tree species. After development, it can grow into a spiritual tree containing the breath of the world."
Toji Hisami took out the seed again, but this time it had turned into an illusion.
The real seed had been transmitted to his hands long ago, and the druid couldn’t take it back even if he wanted to.
Toji Hisami, who possessed knowledge in nine subjects and had successfully analyzed the basics of four subjects, could indeed see some clues about the seed.
However, the druid’s expression was still full of disdain.
Even though his face was actually disguised with tree bark, various expressions could be vividly expressed.
"How about this."
"If I can cultivate this seed by myself without any help from outside forces, will it be possible for you and me to cooperate?"
"Ha, I got this seed in the Void Battlefield. Unless you have the strength of an earl or above, you can’t cultivate it."
"You just said that if I have cultivated it, is there any possibility of cooperation?"
"If you can cultivate the seed by yourself or through your territory without resorting to external forces, cooperation is not impossible!"
The druid’s face was filled with disbelief.
But for some reason, when Toji Hisami asked him in a serious tone, he still gave the answer.
Then he saw Toji Hisami put the seed away again and pretend to continue watching the auction.
"I hope you will remember what I said today when you pay attention to the results in the main world one day."
"Cooperating with me will be beneficial and harmless to you. Trust me, you won’t regret it."
After Toji Hisami said this, he ignored the druid.
Many people thought that he made a very wrong decision today and offended the druid for nothing.
But in Toji Hisami’s own opinion, this was nonsense.
Everyone met by chance, and after leaving the auction house, it was not so easy to find someone in such a vast world.
Everyone wore masks, and their identity information and faces were blocked.
With Toji Hisami’s current strength, when an opportunity came his way, he naturally wanted to maximize his profits!
Druids were a branch of the elves and were good at all things natural, animals and plants being the two most common.
This druid carried so many fine seeds with him, so he was obviously a boss in the plant field.
For such a big boss, if one could get some new discoveries related to plants, what did today’s mere contradiction mean?
As long as Toji Hisami’s talent was still there, when he took these seeds back, he would naturally arrange for people to conduct special research.
Putting 100% of his energy into it, he dared not speak in terms of breadth, but in terms of specialization, he would soon be able to give surprising answers.
Moreover, with a few seeds given by the boss as a reference, the starting point for research would be very high, and the time for achieving results would be greatly shortened.
As long as the druid could see the results, everyone would have a basis for cooperation.
For people like the druid, the most important thing was to have a new breakthrough in the field that they were good at.
It didn’t matter if a few seeds were coveted today; the druid might even rush to give him seeds in the future!
In fact, Toji Hisami’s calm attitude did scare the druid.
Despite the disdain on his face, there was an inexplicable sense of expectation in his heart.
If Toji Hisami really cultivated that seed by himself, the druid really wouldn’t refuse to cooperate.
He was a genius himself, and he deeply understood what it represented and what impact it had on himself.
But it was too early to say this right now. The druid planned to inquire about it immediately after leaving the auction.
Being able to enter the auction at such a young age, he should not be an unknown role.
It was just that 99% of the people in the auction venue, including the druid, could not have imagined that Toji Hisami was someone who had not yet passed the trial!
Except in one of the private rooms on the top.
Inside, the slim-faced Max was drinking a beverage and cracking melon seeds, his eyes glancing back and forth at the druid and Toji Hisami.
Next to him, there were several wealthy and powerful people sitting, and the aura of divine equipment was faintly emanating from each of them.
"Next, let’s invite the next auction item, the Spirit Jade!"
"This piece of white jade, according to our calculations, is made of jade veins that have been condensed by feeling the power of the gods all year round."
"Although we don’t know which god it is, we can 100% gain insights about the gods through the Spirit Jade."
"The starting price is five thousand coupons, starting now."
On the stage, the emcee explained to the crowd in an enthusiastic voice. Finally, with a wave of his hand, a piece of white jade appeared on the stone pillar behind him.
It was the piece submitted by Toji Hisami.
Someone soon raised a sign outside the field, and the price started at 500, soon reaching 950.
At this moment, Max suddenly smiled and raised the sign in his hand.
"Twenty thousand."
The voice was very soft, but the emcee on the stage could clearly catch it, waving his arms excitedly.
"Twenty thousand! A distinguished guest bids twenty thousand! This is a treasure that can bring enlightenment from the gods. Is there anyone else who wants to bid?"
"Twenty thousand going once!"
"Twenty thousand going twice!"
In his seat, Toji Hisami still watched calmly and did not show any excitement.
The druid next to him clicked his tongue and was obviously a little moved.
The sign in his hand moved again and again, as if he were making a final hesitant struggle.
But at this time, someone in another private room also raised a sign.
"Twenty-five thousand."
A wave of surprise swept through the auction.
Even though the master of ceremonies talked about this piece of jade in a lavish way, it was essentially just a piece of jade.
It was said that there was a chance to gain enlightenment from the gods, but who knew whether it was the gods who sat on the jade to gain enlightenment, or whether the gods’ aura merely seeped into the jade while they were resting casually?
The price of 25,000 coupons was obviously beyond the value of this thing.
The druid put down the sign regretfully, and Toji Hisami gave him a strange look.
At this time, Toji Hisami was also a little curious about which big boss was raising the price.
But Toji Hisami didn’t care. Anyway, the higher the price, the happier he would be.
This meant that he had more coupons on hand and could buy things more comfortably.
