Chapter 257 Queen Nat, the Goddess Seizes Fortune
When the price was announced, the whole place fell into silence. Everyone was so shocked by the astonishing figure that they were speechless. The trafficker leader widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief, and his astonished expression seemed as if time had frozen at this moment.
Then, irrepressible ecstasy surged to his face like a surging tide, and he excitedly raised the auction hammer in his hand, looking so eager that he seemed unable to wait to finalize the deal that would make him rich overnight.
Everyone looked towards the sound, and saw a large number of heroic female soldiers in armor rushing in like a tide. They moved in unison, with firm and powerful steps, instantly separating the people around them and forming a solid human wall. The female soldiers quickly stood in two rows, leaving a wide aisle in the middle. The strict formation seemed to be the result of countless training.
Outside the corridor, a huge pink-gold dragon-and-phoenix-patterned sedan chair carried by eight people slowly drove in. The sedan chair was decorated extremely luxuriously, and the pink silk shone softly in the sun. The delicate texture seemed to be carefully woven by the top craftsmen. The dragon and phoenix patterns were carved vividly, the dragon scales shone with golden light, and the phoenix feathers seemed to be able to flutter in the wind at any time, as if they could take off at any time, showing incomparable majesty and luxury.
The sedan stopped, and a woman in a gorgeous nine-dragon robe walked out slowly with the help of a maid. Her face was absolutely beautiful, and her delicate facial features were like the most perfect masterpiece of heaven, with every line just right. Her skin was as white as snow, emitting a soft luster under the sunlight. Her temperament was noble and majestic, and every movement and every look of hers revealed an innate dignity. Her eyes revealed a kind of wisdom and determination, as if she could see through all the fog in the world. She glanced at the whole audience, and her sharp eyes were like a sword, making everyone present feel her majesty.
Then, she set her eyes on Roth on the auction table. At that moment, it seemed as if the whole world was focused on Roth.
"I want this person." Her voice was not loud, but it was full of unquestionable power. The firm tone was like a rock, making it impossible to refute.
When the people around saw the woman, they all knelt down and saluted, shouting respectfully: "Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen!"
The person who came was the Queen of the Kingdom of Women, whom Roth had observed from above the Kingdom of Women's Palace last night. The Queen raised her hand slightly, and that graceful movement seemed to carry an invisible force, signaling everyone to stand up. The leader of the human traffickers was terrified at this time. He never expected that the Queen would come to the auction site in person.
He trembled and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't know you were so honored to visit me. This... this race, if you like it, I will naturally offer it to you with both hands."
"I won't take it for free. I just said that I will offer this man 500,000 taels of silver." The queen's words were loud and clear, and every word was like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart.
The leader of the human traffickers immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying repeatedly: "No, no, no, it is a blessing for him that Her Majesty the Queen has taken a liking to him. How dare I accept money from Her Majesty?"
The queen narrowed her eyes slightly, revealing a hint of majesty, that majesty was like a mountain pressing down on one's head, making it hard to breathe.
"Not a penny less of the money that should be given, the Xiliang Women's Kingdom has its own laws." After saying that, she waved her hand, and the soldiers behind her lifted up boxes one by one. The boxes were extremely heavy, and the movement of each box seemed to carry a solemn sense of ceremony. All the boxes were placed in front of the trafficker leader, and the female soldiers opened the boxes, which were full of golden gold. The dazzling light made people dazzled, as if a mountain of gold was displayed in front of everyone.
"Here are 50,000 taels of gold, and I'll take the person away." The Queen of the Kingdom of Women said to the leader of the human traffickers, her voice full of unquestionable determination.
Then, she turned to the female soldiers and ordered, "Bring this man to the palace." The female soldiers immediately stepped forward, their actions were decisive and swift. They directly took Roth away, and their firm strength made it impossible to resist.
They surrounded Roth, like stars surrounding the moon, and followed the queen out of the auction. The people at the scene looked at each other, and no one dared to speak out to stop them. The majestic scene made everyone feel the queen's authority, as if at this moment, the whole world had quieted down.
The queen's troops returned to the palace in a mighty procession. Roth was held tightly by the female soldiers, but his mind was full of thoughts. He didn't know why the queen bought him at such a high price.
After entering the palace, the queen went straight to the main hall, and Roth was taken to her bedroom. Roth was imprisoned in the bedroom, and there were many female soldiers guarding outside.
After an unknown amount of time, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door. Then, the door was gently pushed open, and a maid walked in. She brought a plate of food and a pot of water and placed them on the table in front of Lot.
Luo Te didn't know what the Queen of the Kingdom of Women meant. It was the water of the Zimu River. Was she trying to test me? Luo Te knew that the female soldiers guarding him outside had been watching him.
Roth was unmoved by the food and water on the table. He just sat in the chair and closed his eyes.
................................
And in the palace, the King of the Kingdom of Women was looking at the female soldiers below.
"How is it, did he drink?"
The Queen asked.
"Your Majesty, he kept his eyes closed and did not move at all."
The queen frowned slightly, thinking about Roth's actions in her heart. "Keep observing, and report any movement immediately." The queen ordered.
The female soldiers withdrew as ordered, and the palace returned to silence. An old woman dressed like a witch walked out from the barrier behind the Queen's throne.
"I've seen him. There's not a trace of blood or spiritual power in his body. But why doesn't he drink the water from the Zimu River? Could it be that he knew the power of the Zimu River in advance?" said the old woman.
"High Priest, I think he is just an ordinary person, although he does not look like an ordinary person. Are you being too suspicious?" The Queen
The high priest stroked his gray beard and said in a deep voice: "You can send someone to secretly observe his every move and test his background. If he really has problems, he must be dealt with as soon as possible to avoid bringing disaster to the Xiliang Women's Kingdom."
The queen nodded and said, "Let's do as the high priest says. But don't be too radical, so as not to alert the enemy."
"I observed the celestial phenomena at night and found that a man of luck is coming. As long as you marry him, my Xiliang Women's Kingdom will gain infinite luck. If you practice dual cultivation with him, absorb his yang energy, and seize his merits, you will be able to ascend to heaven in broad daylight."
The queen was slightly startled, and a complex expression flashed across her face. On her beautiful face, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her eyes showed doubt and thought. "High Priest, is this person of destiny really so important? But in this vast sea of people, how can we be sure who is the person of destiny?" The queen's voice echoed in the palace, with a hint of uncertainty and expectation.
The high priest looked deep in his eyes and said slowly, "Your Majesty, a person with great luck must have capable people to help him. I think they will come to my Xiliang Women's Kingdom soon." The high priest stroked his gray beard, and his eyes revealed a mysterious light. He raised his head slightly, as if recalling the strange scene he saw when observing the sky at night.
"Your Majesty, the arrival of people with great fortune will bring earth-shaking changes to the Western Liang Women's Kingdom. They carry infinite fortune, which is an opportunity for our country to rise. Those talented people surrounding people with great fortune will definitely exude a unique aura. We just need to pay close attention to strangers entering our country, especially those with extraordinary temperaments and unusual behaviors."
The queen listened to the high priest's words quietly, her thoughts surging like a tide. She knew the current situation of the Xiliang Women's Kingdom and longed for the country to gain greater strength. "High priest, how should we prepare to welcome the arrival of the man of destiny?" The queen asked, her tone full of expectation.
The high priest thought for a moment, then said, "Your Majesty, we should strengthen the border guards and keep an eye on everyone who enters our country. At the same time, we must also be prepared at home to ensure that we can take prompt action once we find a person of luck. We can send some smart and capable people to patrol the city to observe if there are any abnormal situations. In addition, Your Majesty, you must also be prepared to welcome the arrival of the person of luck with the most honorable attitude."
The queen nodded, her eyes revealing a firm determination. "Okay, let's do as the high priest says. Pass the order down to strengthen the border guards and patrols in the country. Make sure to find the lucky people as soon as they arrive." The queen's voice was full of majesty.
