Shock! The Spell Is In English! Chapter 494
Advertisement
If not for the discussion below, the etiquette lady would have thought that she was dreaming. When she thought about the large amount of commission and promotion she could get, the etiquette lady was extremely happy.
However, her long-term professionalism prevented her from doing anything out of the ordinary.
The Ice clan leader sat on his seat. He was a little surprised that Clan Leader Leiluo had raised the price to 20 million.
This wasn't like the Leiluo clan's patriarch that he usually knew, but what was important now was whether or not he wanted to follow.
Although the son of the patriarch of the Ice clan was also highly regarded by his father, he still had other people to support besides this son.
After eight generations of inheritance, there were a large number of direct descendants in the family. These people needed to consume a large amount of resources every day. Even if they couldn't compare with the son of the patriarch of the Ice clan, they still needed to use a lot of resources.
If the patriarch of the Ice clan spent 20 million gold coins to buy the Jade Bed for his son, a large number of people in the family wouldn't agree. This was because 20 million gold coins wasn't low for the family.
If they bought a large amount of resources, it wouldn't be a big deal if everyone used it together. No one would say anything.
But this Jade Bed could only be used by one person. That was the son of the patriarch.
When others couldn't gain anything, they still had to use their benefits to make up for the clan leader's son. Normally, their resources were far inferior to the clan leader's son, but now, for the sake of the clan leader's son, they were squeezing out their benefits.
How could they be convinced by this? Even if you were the clan leader, you couldn't be so biased towards others.
But Clan Leader Leiluo was different. He had the financial resources of the Ice clan, but his clan had many disciples.
This resulted in the resources of the Leiluo family being far more than the Ice family.

Moreover, Patriarch Leiluo's son was the eldest grandson of the family, and was favored by the family. Therefore, Patriarch Leiluo could buy a Jade Bed for his son and spend 20 million gold coins.
Moreover, everyone in the Leiluo family knew that the potential of the son of Patriarch Leiluo was very strong. Everyone in the Leiluo family felt that the son of Patriarch Leiluo was the key to the family's continued strength.
Everyone supported allocating a large amount of resources to the son of Clan Leader Leiluo.
The two clans would be able to determine the victor after this round.
In the end, Clan Leader Leiluo auctioned off the Jade Bed for 20 million gold coins.
When the etiquette lady knocked down the hammer in her hand, it meant that Clan Leader Leiluo had successfully auctioned off the Jade Bed.
After the ninth auction ended, the last auction was the tenth.
As Lugh's perfect grade medicinal pill was added at the last moment, it was not included in the normal order of this auction. After the final product was auctioned off, the auction for Lugh's perfect grade medicinal pill would begin.
After a few brawny men carried the Jade Bed away, another person carried up a blueprint made of an unknown item.
After everything was prepared, the etiquette lady began to introduce it.
This blueprint was a distribution map of a treasure location, and it was a treasure that was about to be born.
If one obtained this blueprint, they could easily enter it.
This blueprint was the treasure map of the Dragon Pagoda that was about to come out.
It turned out that this treasure map of the Dragon Pagoda was obtained from a tomb that had recently been ransacked by a few pirates.
These ocean pirates searched for the location of the treasure map, but after finding it, they were unable to enter. The place where the treasure was hidden was protected by a formation.
They could only enter on the night of the full moon, and there was still some time before that time.
These ocean pirates, in addition to the treasure map, also had some blueprints of the Giant Dragon Pagoda. This allowed them to enter safely according to the blueprints.

However, the problem was that no one could understand the blueprints and the words on them.
This blueprint was useful, but it was also useful. If it was useless, then it would be useless.
A blueprint that couldn't be understood was a piece of waste paper. Therefore, the people in the auction didn't know how to set the price, so they arranged it for the last auction.
Because they did not know how to set the price, the people at the auction set the price of the blueprint at 100 gold coins. There was no limit to the increase in price.
After the auction started, everyone stopped looking like they were going to auction.
This was also normal. It must be a blueprint that could not be understood and a place that had an unknown amount of treasure.
Although some people wanted to try their luck and buy the blueprint, it would be difficult for them to auction if no one increased the price.
Everyone was waiting, waiting for the first person to bid.
The etiquette lady looked at the somewhat awkward crowd and felt a little awkward.
If after a minute, no one went to auction, then it meant that the auction had failed.
If no one auctioned it for five minutes, then they could only bring this thing down. At that time, the auction would compensate the seller based on the ridicule.
After a minute, no one had any intention of auctioning it.
The current situation was that if a small family had the money to auction it off, it would definitely be a low price of 100 gold coins. However, they knew that this treasure was not something that a small family like them could go to. Otherwise, it would be easy for them to be completely wiped out.
If they did not have the ability, then they should not join in the fun. This was the survival rule of small families. Otherwise, these small families would have long disappeared.
Small forces didn't have the ability, but large forces knew some inside information in advance. That was because this blueprint had appeared many times.
This was because when the ocean pirate obtained the blueprint, there were several copies. This meant that this blueprint had already been leaked and was completely meaningless.
To obtain the blueprint, one had to be one step ahead of the enemy to obtain the treasure. Now that this blueprint had been leaked, what was the point of auctioning it?
Moreover, all the major powers knew that they couldn't understand the blueprint at all. It didn't matter whether they had it or not.
"100 gold coins."
After waiting for two minutes, Lugh saw that no one was auctioning for it and decided to auction it off himself.
This was because although the others couldn't understand the words and patterns on it, he, Lugh, could.
After using the system, any formation or blueprint, the language of words, wouldn't be a problem for Lugh.
To Lugh, blueprints that were useless to others were very useful.
As soon as Lugh made his bid, the etiquette lady immediately agreed. There was no other way. If the auction did not go through, the auction house would accompany the people who paid a lot of money for the blueprints. Now that someone was auctioning, it was time to hurry up and buy some.
After Lugh auctioned, everyone perked up. The next thing they knew was the main event, the perfect grade medicinal pills.
In the backstage of the auction, all of Lugh's perfect grade medicinal pills had been inspected. All of them were perfect grade medicinal pills. Now, they had been re-sealed and were pushing a small cart towards the auction venue.
In order to ensure the safety of these medicinal pills, the president of the auction personally followed behind to prevent anyone from stealing them.
It was completely possible that the items in the auction would definitely be stolen.
The other items in the auction house were all large items that were not easy to take out. The blueprints were of little value, so there was no need to look at them too much.

New God
Who said being a God was easy. If you started omniscient; omnipotent and omnipresent then it might be. However, without those powers it would be a different story entirely. This is that story. Adam is thrown into a new world with no choice and no instructions. At least he is a God, whatever that means... Lovely Royal Road readers: Imagine a tutorial with no instructions and no idea what the game was meant to be and what you are trying to achieve. All you know is that you are a God (whatever that means). So this is quite slow to start; mainly world building for me; a bit of base building by the MC and some good old minion development. I'm developing/practicing my writing and love the format of RR to get it out of my head. So hopefully it gets better with time as I get better. All feedback welcome - but please critique and tell me why you don't like it (if you don't) I'd rather a 1-star review than a 2-star(plus) rating!

Terms and Conditions
The planet Earth –galactic name Driew—has always been an ordinary and peaceful planet with a small population of ape-beings ruling it. Conflicts do break out from time to time, but that is to be expected since most living planets die by either solar flares or some form of self-destruction. But, unfortunately for the Earth, a Mustela named Exflibberaguil was approaching this planet, and something destructive seemed to always follow him—though he would say it was just his destructively-hot looks. Marine Nick Lucifay is a female inhabitant of Earth, always too ready to run. When presented with an opportunity of adventure, her ape-brain figures that adventure is probably worth the consequence of death. And so, setting off to the nearest McDonalds, Marine Nick finds herself in the midst of an intergalactic struggle that involves a great quantity of bubbles. Chased by the most unlikely of enemies, Exflibberaguil must give up his secrets to save a world—and Marine—from running to their deaths.

The Shadow Paradigm - Book 1: Project Orb Weaver
Gardening, cooking, innovation, preservation, charity events... Madzistrale, Tom and Gabzryel does it all. But when they encounter the mysterious Shiakar Paradigm Society, a clash of paradigms ensues. Although both groups are aiming to make humanity stand stronger, their ideals and methods could not be further apart. Between the trio's optimistic yet naive ideals, and the SPS's tried-and-true surgical methods, determining the answer which methods can better humanity is a struggle that both parties must resolve in their own ways... Welcome to the 7th revision of my 10+ years ongoing novel trilogy. This revision took out some flawed plot concepts to re-introduce a more down-to-earth, film noir-like ambience, where a battle of wits is what will determine the outcome. It also added instead more in-depth expansion into the lives and mindsets of the characters, especially the heroes (a missing factor in older versions). Third-view limited storytelling was also introduced more prominently over my favoured third-view omnipotent, with each chapters concentrating as much as possible on a single character's point of view instead of head-hopping. So I shall begin uploading the chapters as I finish them; they're edited as much as I can, but there'll most likely be some typos and mistakes. As always, I welcome your comments and critiques, and I hope you enjoy reading that story as much as I did creating it! A parting poem to introduce the story (translated from its original French version): Credit: Les Mots, Mylene Farmer & Seal Firmly, the sky writhes When a mouth begets a death There, I will give my life to hear you To tell you the most tender words When all becomes all alone I'll break my life for a song And to lives that stoop to notice mine I know I will say goodbye But a fraction of this life I would give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives You could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple If one swept the world away One could touch the universe I will tell you how the sun rose high We could with a word become one And for all those words that hurts us There are those that touches us Which illuminates, touches the infinity Even if nothingness exists For a fraction on this life We will give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives We could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple
