Zerg Survival Record

Chapter 183

Lan Yin finally went to an auction house.

This is because Parker and the others were really afraid that he would cause trouble, so they called Kelesel over.

When Kaileser heard that the male insect wanted to go out and play, he had no choice but to take him with him to broaden his horizons. It just so happened that a certain chamber of commerce was holding a temporary auction and invited insects from all parties to participate.

Because it is temporary, no invitation is required. You only need to show your identity to enter the venue.

This is undoubtedly a small auction.

The venue was not very fancy, but it was decorated magnificently.

"Respected Mr. Presiding Judge, welcome."

The female insect who was suspected to be the main family welcomed Lan Yin and the others in.

Lan Yin touched the exquisite mask on his face. This was the mask that Kelesel insisted on making him wear. No matter how advanced the electronic products were, he couldn't tell what he looked like.

When he heard the female insect addressing Kelesel, he knew that Kelesel had borrowed the identity of another insect, and that the other party might even be his subordinate.

But looking at the other party's respectful and flattering look, it was clear that the identity Kaileser borrowed was not a simple one.

Lan Yin felt sympathy for the bug whose identity was borrowed by Kelesel for three seconds, and then he began to look around and observe his surroundings openly.

This floor is very large, with red carpets and decorations mostly in gold. The black and gold seats are arranged in a stepped manner around the central platform, with large distances between them to provide some privacy.

Although it does not make any difference to the female insect's hearing, these superficial efforts also represent the organizer's respect for the guest insects.

The female insect who called herself Wade led them to the front row of seats and then called four servants to treat Lan Yin and the others well before she excused herself and left.

Kelesel asked Lan Yin, "Would you like something to eat?"

Lan Yin shook his head: "I don't eat the food here."

Kelesel looked at him with amusement. "Don't worry, this is a legitimate auction house. If there's any problem, I'm afraid those idiots from the law enforcement department will seal it off in the next second."

Lan Yin still shook his head: "I have to be responsible for myself."

In novels, auctions are generally chaotic occasions where anything can happen.

Even if nothing happened originally, there is a high possibility that something will happen after he comes.

Lan Yin never doubted his attraction to them.

Kelesel did not force it and waved his hand to let the servants go.

He said, "With your status, you can ask all auction houses to hold an auction just for you. They will feel very honored."

Lan Yin couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Living advertisement, how can they not feel honored?"

"Those auction items are bribes. When they have problems in the future, they will have to come to me and ask for help."

Although it was just a small matter for him, he didn't want to give the impression that he would help as long as he was given money.

"You're overthinking it," Kelesel told him. "They wouldn't dare use you as advertising. Besides, the male insects aren't short of money, and there are only a few auction items they'd be interested in. They value their reputations, so they won't take anything for free."

"But if it were you, that wouldn't necessarily be the case." Kelesel looked at him and couldn't help but smile. "You claim to be a country bug, so it's normal for you to be unable to control your desires."

Lan Yin felt like he was going to turn into a puffed-up pufferfish. Although this was true, Kaileser just said it like that. Didn't he have any face?

He was about to say a few words when more insects appeared in the meeting room, so he had to control his temper.

Kelesel was flipping through a booklet that he had gotten from somewhere. He moved quickly and finished reading it in just three minutes, then handed it to Lan Yin.

When Lan Yin took it, she heard him say, "If you want anything, just shoot it and I'll buy it for you."

Lan Yin's eyes suddenly lit up: "Can I light a sky lantern?"

Kelesel only gave him one word: "Get out!"

"Okay!" Lan Yin was still happy. It was such a wonderful thing to have a bug pay for her.

He opened the booklet and asked as he looked at it, "Where did you get this booklet? Why don't I have it?"

"It's this one. I just asked them for it." said Kelesel.

"Then why not make it a holographic projection?" Lan Yin asked.

Kelesail said, "It's easy to leak. Not all bugs come just for the novelty. Some come for something specific. If the list of auction items is released and it doesn't include what they want, a quarter of the bugs at the scene might disappear."

Lan Yin nodded, placed his slender fingers on the booklet, and said, "With so many insects missing, the loss will indeed be huge."

If they take a fancy to something and make an impulse purchase, wouldn't that also be a source of income? Besides, if a quarter of the insects are missing, the scene will become deserted, which will also cause the auction to be poorly managed.

A chuckle came.

Lan Yin didn't care and continued reading.

Not to mention, the things there were quite interesting, and there was even a mermaid auctioned.

This cheered him up. Although the Sass Empire banned the trade of insects, this only applied to its own insect people and did not restrict foreign races.

Mermen naturally also have their own kingdom, and their relationship with the Zerg is average, with no conflicts and generally no wars.

However, if they were sold as goods to the Sass Empire, the Empire would not be kind enough to send them back, but would continue to sell them as goods to dignitaries for their amusement, because the Mermaid Kingdom had the same attitude towards the Zerg.

Lan Yin was just considering whether to buy the mermaid and raise her, since Kelesel had said he would pay for it, when he heard a voice: "Is this your first time here?"

He looked up and saw that the person who spoke to him was a female insect sitting in the seat next to him.

As for Lan Yin's two sides, one sitting was naturally Kelesel, and the other was his personal bodyguard Terraris.

The female insect who spoke to Lan Yin was sitting next to Terraris, supporting her chin with one hand, looking at Lan Yin with interest.

He couldn't tell his age, or rather, as long as the Zerg didn't enter the aging stage, they would look young.

His golden hair has the radiance of the sun, and his handsome face is even more dazzling.

Lan Yin just glanced at him, then looked away and said "hmm" softly, showing that he didn't want to pay any attention to the other person.

But the blond young man seemed to be very interested in him and continued, "I've been here many times. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."

Lan Yin just nodded politely: "Thank you."

Then, he didn't say anything and continued to read the booklet.

The blond young man smiled and didn't argue any further.

Kelesel stared at him for a moment, and when the young man noticed, he nodded and looked away without waiting for his response.

The blond young man, Rui Jin, the owner of the auction house, was a little surprised.

He was well-informed, and the reason he lent the auction venue to the Welsh Chamber of Commerce this time was because of the friendship they had built over the years. Otherwise, this hastily held auction might have a bad ending, casting a shadow on his auction house.

But thinking of the mermaid brought by the Welsh Chamber of Commerce, he regained his confidence. Such a rare item would surely liven up the atmosphere on the scene, and his auction house would also become more popular.

only…

He looked at the silver-haired female insect again.

I just felt that the other party had an amazing aura and a kind of noble pride that belonged to a superior.

Although Wade said that this was the presiding judge, Mr. Navicia, Ruijin felt that the other party was a more powerful giant insect.

The other person looked at him without any hesitation, as if he was not worthy of his attention at all.

Ruijin felt offended.

He observed the female insect next to him again, and was discovered almost immediately, and then gave him a warning look.

Ruijin is already an S-level female insect, but at this glance, she still felt like she couldn't breathe.

He knew that the level of this female insect was definitely above S level, or even a 2S female insect.

But these two female insects are like the guardians of the insect in the middle, preventing other insects from looking at and approaching it.

This undoubtedly made Ruijin curious, even though there was a sense of danger ahead that made him tremble.

After Lan Yin finished reading, he said to Kelesel, "I want to buy that mermaid."

Kelesel wanted to scold him: "Why buy that thing? And then we have to build all kinds of ocean simulation facilities for it."

He still had some words unsaid.

Mermaids have exceptionally beautiful appearances and very moving singing voices. The purpose of buying them is actually very obvious, which is to satisfy one's own selfish desires.

Such words were too filthy, and Kelesel couldn't bear to tell them to the little male insect for fear of polluting his ears.

Lan Yin leaned over and whispered to him, "You don't have that many credit points? It doesn't matter. I won't laugh at you. I have credit points myself."

Kelesel felt he couldn't afford to be looked down upon, so he immediately said, "Who doesn't have credit points? I'm just worried that after you buy it, the novelty will wear off after a few days. Then I'll have to take care of it for you."

Lan Yin only asked the key question: "Will you buy it?"

Kelesel was once again thankful that this guy was not his own son, otherwise he would have committed the crime of beating a male insect.

"Buy it!" he said unhappily.

Lan Yin suddenly smiled brightly: "I knew you were the best to me!"

His desire to buy the mermaid was a subconscious impulse. The word "mermaid" could bring up a sense of loss and nostalgia in his heart.

This may have something to do with his past.

So, within his ability, he didn't mind doing something impulsive and buying a mermaid home.

"Are you interested in mermaids?" The blond young man tried to talk to Lan Yin again.

Lan Yin glanced at him and said, "I'm mainly curious about the difference between him and us."

"I see," the blond youth said. "Mermaids are incredibly beautiful yet treacherous creatures. In ancient mythology, they use their beautiful singing to lure other creatures into the deep sea, where they capture and eat them. They're incredibly cruel."

"Really?" Lan Yin had also heard this version, but in that distant ancient time, even people of the same kind might eat each other, let alone people of other races.

"Yes." Rui Jin smiled. "If you buy the mermaid, you still have to set up protective facilities to prevent him from getting hurt."

Lan Yin frowned slightly when he heard this.

"What's wrong?" Seeing him like this, Kelesel couldn't help but care about him.

Lan Yin said, "Don't keep this mermaid at home after you buy her. Keep her in the villa the Empire gave me and let the housekeeping robots take care of her."

Kelesel was stunned for a moment, nodded, and said nothing more.

After sitting for a few more minutes, the auction finally began.

The light shone on the stage, and a male insect in a white suit walked up.

Lan Yin immediately became interested. He didn't expect that there would be a male insect who would be an auctioneer.

This male insect is tall, with delicate and deep facial features. In a word, he is very photogenic and has a bewitching charm under the light, especially his pair of captivating phoenix eyes.

"Thank you all for coming. Welsh Auctions is honored to have you here. I'm Aitch, the auctioneer for this auction. Now, let's begin. I wish you all a fruitful return. Thank you."

After Aitch finished speaking, applause broke out from the audience.

Lan Yin applauded along with the crowd. As expected, male insects are so popular in any industry. Even if they have a bad attitude or make any mistakes, the public will forgive them tolerantly.

He also knew why such auctions would invite male insect auctioneers. Firstly, it was to attract attention, and secondly, people were more tolerant of male insects, so the atmosphere would not be so awkward.

This is just like Blue Star inviting beautiful women.

It’s just that the Zerg have turned into beautiful male Zerg.

Seeing that he couldn't take his eyes off the male insect above, Kelesel couldn't help but ask, "Why? Are you attracted to him?"

These words not only shocked Lan Yin, but also shocked Rui Jin.

Aitch can be said to be his cash cow. If any powerful person is really on the list, I don’t know whether he will come back to continue working.

Lan Yin was speechless: "What are you thinking? Do I look like that kind of bad guy?"

"Then why are you still staring at him?" Kailesel was against Xiongxionglian's attitude, but if Lan Yin was in Xiongxionglian, he couldn't stop him.

Lan Yin said somewhat helplessly: "Staring at someone doesn't necessarily mean you like them. It could also mean you simply admire their beauty."

Kelesel said, "This is different from us female insects. We don't even look at male insects, except for our own male masters and male offspring."

"Really?" Lan Yin gestured for him to look at the other insects around him.

Kelesel glanced at them and said calmly, "Maybe they are all single."

Lan Yin remained silent.

It is true that most female insects are very loyal, but there are also some who do not take male insects seriously at all.

Some males and females who were united through marriage began to play with each other after giving birth to the heir insects.

Usually, the female insect has a higher status and more power.

And Aichi on the stage is the target of this type of female insects.

After all, he is so handsome, but he doesn't seem to have any background.

Lan Yin listened to Aichi read out the first auction item and suddenly smiled: "He has a B level, why doesn't he become a spiritual comforter?"

That will undoubtedly be more respected and protected by all parties.

"Because he suffers from a mental disorder, he is unable to soothe the female insect's spiritual sea."

It was Rui Jin who spoke up, explaining to Lan Yin, "Mental disorders are a 0.1% chance for male insects, and Ai Qi is unfortunately a sufferer of this symptom."

"He only has a B rank, but he can't mobilize his mental power, let alone extend his mental tentacles out of his body."

Rui Jin shook his head slightly and said, "But he needed money, so he came here."
