"500 million Berry, for the second time."
"500 million Berries, third time! Sold!"
"The mermaids belong to the Holy Church of Charlos!"
With this, the auction hosted by Ximen Yan officially came to an end.
Next, we will enter the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.
"Come back to the Holy Land with me to get the money~"
Charles Saint suddenly pointed at Simon Yan and said.
As a Celestial Dragon, he doesn't have the habit of carrying money with him when he goes out.
So even if the mermaid was auctioned off.
They won't make payment on the spot.
Of course, this is a privilege of being a Celestial Dragon.
Other nobles and wealthy merchants who purchased slaves were obviously required to hand over their money on the spot.
"Yes, Saint Charles!"
Ximen Yan quickly responded.
This was something he had planned beforehand.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have personally come out to preside over the auction.
The guards nearby were somewhat puzzled.
After purchasing a suitable slave.
Charles Saint's family will naturally arrange for someone to deliver the money.
Today, Charles Saint sent people along to collect the money!
This clearly surprised them.
However, considering Charles Saint's usual behavior...
Perhaps it was just a sudden whim of Charles Saint!
They can't control things like that.
She was just an auctioneer!
There's no need to worry about it too much.
Thus, under the leadership of Saint Charles.
Simon entered the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.
The next step was to gather intelligence.
Fortunately, Ximen Yan already had a plan.
Charles Saint, who has just returned to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.
They couldn't wait to send people to notify the other Celestial Dragons.
He's going to hold a mermaid appreciation event!
Although it was quite sudden.
But those below dared not say anything.
Moreover, Charles Saint is not mentally sound.
It's not unusual for someone to suddenly have a brain fart and want to hold a mermaid appreciation event.
They could only obediently carry out Charles Saint's orders.
The Celestial Dragons who received the notification.
Some are not interested in this.
These are usually older Celestial Dragons.
After all, they have had or currently have had more than one mermaid slave.
Naturally, I have no interest in admiring other people's mermaids.
However, some young Celestial Dragons are quite interested in this.
In the end, sixteen young Celestial Dragons arrived.
Saint Charlos led these Celestial Dragons to the exhibition hall specifically for displaying mermaids.
As for the guards and slaves brought by these Celestial Dragons...
Naturally, they were left outside.
However, these Celestial Dragons did not see any mermaids after entering the exhibition hall.
Only Simonyan and Gardevoir were in the exhibition hall.
Before these Celestial Dragons could even say anything...
A blue light suddenly flashed in Gardevoir's eyes.
……
It took about an hour to get here.
A group of Celestial Dragons walked out of the exhibition hall with pleasant expressions.
And each Celestial Dragon was also carrying a box the size of a human head.
The guards who followed did not dare to ask any further questions.
After these Celestial Dragons returned to their homes...
He then took the box to the family treasury.
Although in a holy place.
But it serves as a family treasure.
There are still necessary guards.
The Holy Land isn't just home to Celestial Dragons!
Of course, in the Holy Land, no one would dare to steal from a Celestial Dragon's family treasure trove.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, the main function of these guards is...
Actually, it was to prevent the family's treasure trove from being emptied by some Celestial Dragons.
It's not impossible.
After all, some Celestial Dragons aren't very bright.
But as long as it's not some Celestial Dragons trying to empty the family's treasury.
These guards usually don't say much.
However, some guards were quite dutiful.
They will ask the Celestial Dragons about their purpose in coming.
The Celestial Dragons' answers to this were consistent.
Saint Charles gave them a treasure that needed to be stored in the treasury.
One by one, the wooden boxes were placed into the Celestial Dragons' family treasury.
It is currently located inside the Charlos Holy Palace.
Simon Yan, who was leisurely enjoying the high-grade fruit specially supplied to the Celestial Dragons, smiled.
The operation went very smoothly!
The Celestial Dragons who were being controlled were not detected as anything amiss.
The only downside is...
He only identified the family treasures of the sixteen Celestial Dragons.
This also includes the family treasury to which Charles Saint belongs.
The main reason is that a family sent three Celestial Dragons.
In other words, there are still three Celestial Dragon family treasures that he has not yet discovered.
Yes, that's why there are three companies.
That's because Nefit D. Lily, one of the original twenty people who founded the World Government, did not stay in Mary Geoise after the World Government was established.
Instead, they returned to the Kingdom of Alabasta.
In other words, there are actually only about nineteen Celestial Dragon families in the World Government!
Chapter 400 The Execution Begins
Ximen Yan still had his eye on the treasure vaults of the remaining three Celestial Dragon families.
Unfortunately, Charles Saint is rather useless.
His relationship with the other Celestial Dragons is just so-so.
They could use the mermaid's name to attract other Celestial Dragons.
The problem is that the Celestial Dragons of the remaining three families are not interested in this.
Charlos Saint naturally had no other options.
Ximen Yan does have some tricks up his sleeve.
However, there is a risk of exposure.
Ximenyan wouldn't risk losing more than he gained.
As for relying on those Celestial Dragons who are under control.
Some of them were acquainted with the Celestial Dragons from those three families.
Perhaps we can get them to come out.
They just wanted to take advantage of those Celestial Dragons who were being controlled.
He needs to bring Gardevoir closer to the other side.
Unfortunately, Gardevoir's abilities are limited.
When they are too far apart.
There is simply no way to perform precise control.
Therefore, those Celestial Dragons were given orders in advance.
Just like those slaves who were auctioned off by Ximen Yan before.
In the end, Ximen Yan gave up on the idea.
The more you do, the more likely you are to make mistakes.
They were able to obtain the treasures of the sixteen Celestial Dragon families.
That's already a great achievement.
Greed can actually lead to bad things.
After calming down.
Ximen Yan naturally didn't plan to do anything further.
After all, he had already done what he was supposed to do.
All that's left is to wait for the time to come.
During this time, Ximen Yan thoroughly enjoyed the various delicacies specially supplied to the Celestial Dragons!
It must be said that, as a member of the world's aristocracy...
