Chapter 1167: Liam Campbell
Chapter 1167: Chapter 1167: Liam Campbell
"Two guests, please wait a moment."
The woman who had led Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero over greeted them and then parted the red curtains that hung together. She walked inside, with her figure vanishing into the folds.
For a while, only Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero were left outside.
The two of them waited quietly.
"Is there an ’Inscription Formation’ set up for soundproofing as well?"
Soon, Wyatt sensed with his spiritual power that the large tent, made of iron frames and covered by red cloth, was enveloped by a simple Inscription Formation.
Of course, it was simple only in Wyatt’s eyes.
It was an Inscription Formation meant for soundproofing.
No matter how noisy it got inside the tent, none of it could be heard from outside. Therefore, eavesdropping on what rare items Campbell Family’s auction house had prepared was nearly impossible.
Inside the tent, the lights were bright, and figures bustled about.
As soon as the woman who had split from Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero entered, she was stopped by a middle-aged man who asked in a deep voice, "What are you here for? Don’t you know the rules?"
"Liam Campbell, Vice Steward."
Upon seeing the middle-aged man, the woman quickly bowed and paid her respects.
The man was one of the several Vice Stewards of Campbell Family’s auction house, normally responsible for maintaining order during the auctions. If anyone caused trouble or disturbance, it was his job to deal with it.
"What are you doing here at this time?"
Liam Campbell asked impatiently.
"There are two guests who have brought two auction items. They wish to put them up for consignment at our Campbell Family’s auction held today."
The woman hurriedly explained, not daring to delay.
"Oh?"
Hearing the woman’s words, Liam’s eyes brightened.
At this time, their Campbell Family’s auction house only accepted ’finale’ quality auction items for consignment. Since she had brought over the guests with the auction items, it indicated that those two items were not ordinary.
"Take me to see them," Liam directed the woman.
"Yes."
Although it wasn’t Liam’s area of responsibility, since he had said so, the woman didn’t dare to refuse and quickly led him out.
Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero waited outside, and it wasn’t long before they saw the woman reappear with a middle-aged man following her.
"Two guests, this is Liam Campbell, Vice Steward of our Campbell Family’s auction house."
The woman looked towards Wyatt and Winnie, introducing him.
At that moment, Liam’s gaze landed on Winnie Romero. He couldn’t move his eyes away from such a devastatingly beautiful woman with such an extraordinary temperament—it was his first time seeing her.
Only when Winnie’s eyebrows knitted did Liam manage to withdraw his gaze, smiling as he asked, "May I know what items the two of you would like to consign?"
"Didn’t she tell you?" Wyatt asked indifferently, glancing at Liam.
"Huh?"
Liam looked towards the woman beside him.
"Vice Steward Campbell, these guests have come to consign a ’Grade One spirit sword’ and one ’Grade One Return-Life Pill.’ That..."
As the woman was about to explain the extraordinariness of the two items, Liam interrupted her sternly before she could begin.
"A Grade One spirit sword? A Grade One Return-Life Pill?"
Liam looked at the woman, furiously asking, "Is this your first day working at our Campbell Family’s auction house? Don’t you know that our auction house, which holds a major auction every three months, does not accept consignments for ’finale’ items just before the auction?"
"Or perhaps... in your eyes, a mere ’Grade One spirit sword’ and ’Grade One Return-Life Pill’ are enough to be the ’finale’ of our major auction held every three months?"
Liam interrogated the woman repeatedly, his tone becoming increasingly hostile towards the end.
A Grade One spirit sword, a Grade One Pill Medicine.
Though they were precious items.
Yet, in the ’mainland’, as long as it was a power with a decent reputation, one could acquire Grade One Pill Medicine with the expenditure of more original stones, and even other rare items.
As for a Grade One spirit sword, though it was harder to obtain than Grade One Pill Medicine, it wasn’t impossible.
Thus, these two items certainly did not qualify to be the ’finale’ at the Campbell Family’s major auction held every three months.
"Vice Steward Campbell, the ’Grade One spirit sword’ the guests brought is different from ordinary Grade One spirit swords," the woman, flushed red with urgency after being questioned repeatedly by Liam, finally found a chance to speak.
"Hmph! What could be so different about it?" Liam scoffed.
"This guest’s ’Grade One spirit sword’ can amplify one’s strength by ’ninety percent!’ I’ve tested it myself; indeed, it’s a Grade One spirit sword that can amplify strength by ’ninety percent.’"
The woman hurriedly explained.
A Grade One spirit sword that amplifies strength by ’ninety percent?’
And already tested?
Upon hearing the woman’s explanation, Liam’s pupils slightly contracted, and he quickly looked back at Wyatt Barnes and Winnie Romero. His face, previously grim, now blossomed with a radiant smile.
"May I ask if you two would be willing to let me test this Grade One spirit sword?" Liam requested.
Wyatt Barnes gave Liam Campbell a casual glance and handed him the first-grade spirit sword he had just taken out.
After receiving the first-grade spirit sword, Liam Campbell began to test it out.
He found out that it indeed was a first-grade spiritual weapon capable of amplifying "ninety percent" of one’s strength!
It should be known that a typical first-grade spiritual weapon, which could amplify "eighty-seven percent" of one’s strength, was considered quite good; if it could amplify "eighty-eight percent" of one’s strength, it would be seen as a rare item.
To amplify "eighty-nine percent" would classify it as top-notch.
And to amplify "ninety percent" was undoubtedly the cream of the top-notch!
At that moment, Liam Campbell’s breathing became hurried as he flipped over the first-grade spirit sword in his hands, handling it with extreme care.
"The cream of the top-notch..."
After a moment, Liam Campbell gently caressed the blade of the first-grade spirit sword in his hands as if he were caressing his lover rather than a cold object.
Perhaps the additional amplification this first-grade spiritual weapon offered over the ordinary ones was not much and nothing significant in and of itself.
However, the value of this first-grade spiritual weapon was not entirely in how much it could enhance a martial artist’s power.
A first-grade spiritual weapon that could amplify "ninety percent" was extraordinarily rare.
In the eyes of those ’Grade One Artifact Refiners’, it was undoubtedly a treasure beyond compare.
If one were to use such a first-grade spiritual weapon to tempt a Grade One Artifact Refiner, it could definitely make him agree to help you forge hundreds of first-grade spiritual weapons.
Such a first-grade spiritual weapon was a treasure for any ’Grade One Artifact Refiner’.
Perhaps they too could learn the method of forging this first-grade spiritual weapon, enabling them to create one capable of amplifying "ninety percent" of strength and thus become famous throughout Cloud Skies Continent, earning a name that would last for eternity.
For Artifact Refiners of Grade One, they essentially lacked nothing.
What they lacked was a testimony of history, a witness to their existence.
Even if they were forgotten after a few hundred years, or even a thousand years, they had shone brilliantly once and had been remembered for hundreds or thousands of years.
This way, their journey in this world was not in vain.
"Vice Steward Liam, does my first-grade spirit sword have the qualifications to be consigned for auction at your Campbell Family’s auction house right now?"
Wyatt Barnes asked indifferently after giving Liam Campbell a glance.
"Of course it does!"
Liam Campbell nodded without any hesitation, and his eyes lit up as he looked at Wyatt Barnes, asking, "Customer, do you also have a Grade One Return-Life Pill you wish to consign? Could you bring it out for me to appraise?"
Having seen the first-grade spiritual weapon that could amplify "ninety percent" potency, Liam Campbell was very curious about the Grade One Return-Life Pill brought by the person before him.
He had a strong intuition.
That Grade One Return-Life Pill, just like the first-grade spirit sword in his hands, was no ordinary object, not comparable to an ordinary Return-Life Pill.
"You?"
Wyatt sized Liam Campbell up and down for a while, then shook his head, "Better find an alchemist to take a look."
"Customer, Vice Steward Liam is indeed an alchemist," said the woman standing beside Liam Campbell.
For a moment, pride flashed across Liam Campbell’s face.
However, his smile soon froze because of the next sentence Wyatt uttered.
"You’re an alchemist? What grade?"
Wyatt scrutinized Liam Campbell with a frown, saying, "To thoroughly see through a Grade One Pill Medicine’s purity, at least a ’Grade Two alchemist’ is necessary..."
"Customer, I am a Grade Three alchemist. Although I can’t completely see through the purity of a Grade One pill, I can still discern something," Liam Campbell took a deep breath and said.
"Grade Three alchemist?"
Wyatt Barnes’s brow furrowed deeper, then relaxed, and he said indifferently, "Alright, it will do."
Alright?
It will do?
A strong twitch appeared at the corner of Liam Campbell’s mouth, as he fought to suppress the anger in his heart, and forced a smile onto his face, "Then please, customer, take out the pill medicine for me to appraise."
Whoosh!
Wyatt Barnes reached out his hand and handed over the prepared Grade One Return-Life Pill to Liam Campbell.
Liam Campbell took the Grade One Return-Life Pill and started to examine it intently, his gaze shifting from initial confusion, to surprise, to shock—all within the blink of an eye.
"Pure... above ninety percent purity for a Grade One Return-Life Pill!"
Finally, Liam Campbell exclaimed softly.
In an instant, the woman standing beside him was also startled.
A Grade One pill medicine with purity above "ninety percent" – did such pills truly exist?
If it was said that the spiritual weapon that amplified more than "ninety percent" didn’t offer more enhancement to a martial artist over a common first-grade spiritual weapon, its value mainly lay in the ’Grade One Artifact Refiners’ desire for it.
However, a Grade One Return-Life Pill with purity above "ninety percent" not only possessed the same value as the former but its efficacy was also several times that of an ordinary Return-Life Pill.
Such a Grade One Return-Life Pill could be life-saving at a critical moment!
What a regular Return-Life Pill couldn’t achieve, it could.
If one were to truly speak of value, this Grade One Return-Life Pill with purity above "ninety percent’" was even more valuable than the first-grade spiritual weapon that amplified "ninety percent" of strength.
"Customer, where did you get this Grade One Return-Life Pill? Do you have any more?"
Liam Campbell’s eyes were fixed intently on Wyatt Barnes, and within their depths, a glint of greed flashed briefly.
