133: Chapter 133 The Gift

They remembered it clearly.

Mr. Chen only made his move after the price exceeded what most people in the hall could afford.

He suddenly made his move.

Aunt Mi Xue held the Healing Gel in her hand.

Countless question marks instantly popped into her mind, and she looked up at Lin Fan.

Could it be... Mr. Chen was interested in her?!

"W-why are you giving it to me?"

After a long silence, Aunt Mi Xue asked softly.

Lin Fan pondered for a few seconds before giving an answer.

"Because you're a good person."

One sentence.

It instantly petrified everyone, who exchanged glances, speechless.

After speaking, Lin Fan did not linger.

People were leaving one after another.

He activated Void Walk and returned to the Alliance Building.

Passing through the teleportation gate, he appeared directly in the warehouse, where Elder Wang and several appraisers were still present.

"Mr. Chen! We thought you had already left!"

"A representative from the Royal Capital Magic University wants to meet you. You probably haven't met him yet, but you've had some dealings before."

Elder Wang saw him and immediately greeted him with a beaming smile.

Lin Fan directly refused, saying he had no time and was about to leave.

"Understood, I'll let him know. By the way, why are you back? Have you already collected everything?"

Elder Wang nodded, a bit puzzled.

Lin Fan said he had already received the items.

He had returned because he wanted to buy an item that hadn't appeared at the auction.

Elder Wang immediately became interested and asked what he was looking for.

He stated directly.

He wanted a magic item similar to the twin triple-link bracelets that ordinary people could also wear and use.

Elder Wang was stunned at first.

He didn't dare to ask too many questions, fearing it would seem like he was interrogating Mr. Chen.

He told Lin Fan that such items were extremely rare.

No mage would waste energy refining magic items for ordinary people.

Most accessories that didn't require magic activation were specially custom-made by the powerful and wealthy.

Or crafted by mages for their families, making them extremely rare on the market.

This branch didn't have any in stock.

He needed to inquire with the Royal Capital, and even their headquarters might not have any.

Lin Fan was a little surprised.

He hadn't expected magic items for ordinary people to be so scarce.

Since he couldn't buy one, he could only go back for now and look for one for Lin Duo if fate allowed in the future.

But he couldn't just go back empty-handed.

He had promised Lin Duo he would bring her a gift from the auction.

If he only bought things for his parents, how would he appease this little ancestor?

What should he buy?

After a moment of thought.

Lin Fan finally had an idea.

Soon after, Lin Fan returned to his home in the suburbs.

It was late at night, and he knocked on the door, not expecting his parents to still be awake, waiting for him.

It was already past three in the morning!

Lin Fan felt a warmth in his heart.

His parents quickly ushered him in, urging him to rest first and talk about the auction in the morning.

Lin Fan had no objections and went straight to his room to rest.

The night passed without a word, and dawn quickly broke.

The family of four sat around the dining table, eating breakfast.

His parents asked how the auction was and if he had a good time.

Lin Fan spoke casually about the grandeur of the auction.

There were many people and quite a few rare items, his tone like a mere spectator, as if he hadn't participated in any bidding throughout.

After speaking, he took out two small rings from his pocket and handed them to his parents.

He explained that.

These were just ordinary rings with a faint trace of magic, very cheap at the auction, and useless to mages.

That's why he bought them on a whim.

Wearing them could ward off cold and slightly improve one's Physique, making them an inconspicuous little magic accessory.

His parents were touched by his thoughtfulness and gladly accepted them.

After putting them on, they didn't feel any abnormalities, so they believed Lin Fan's explanation.

They didn't know.

These two rings would only unleash their true power when their owners encountered danger.

Ordinarily, they were no different from ordinary rings.

"What about me? What did big brother buy for me?!"

Lin Duo's eyes sparkled, full of anticipation.

She stared at the rings on her parents' hands and asked impatiently.

"Hehe, of course I did, how could I forget you? Wait here."

Lin Fan grinned, turned, and went upstairs.

Soon.

He came back with a small box and gently placed it on the dining table.

Three pairs of eyes stared curiously at the box.

Lin Fan stopped keeping them in suspense and slowly opened it.

"Ta-da~"

Inside the box, a small magic core lay quietly!

Lin Duo blinked.

Looking at the smooth bead, she felt it looked familiar but couldn't recall what it was for a moment.

But her parents were completely different.

Both their expressions changed drastically, staring at the magic core in shock.

Then they suddenly looked at Lin Fan, their eyes filled with disbelief.

How could Lin Fan have a magic core?!

"Don't be surprised, this thing is very expensive and cost all my savings, but it's a gift for you."

"When you Awaken your mage talent next year, you can use it to accelerate your Realm progression."

Lin Fan smiled at Lin Duo, a hint of smugness in his tone.

Lin Duo was completely stunned after hearing this.

This was... a magic core?

Big brother bought her a magic core?!

This thought exploded in her mind.

She suddenly stood up and excitedly threw herself into Lin Fan's arms.

"Big brother is the best! Thank you, big brother!"

She smiled, her eyes crescent-shaped, full of joy.

"Hehe, my little sister naturally deserves the best."

Lin Fan gently ruffled her hair.

His parents sat by.

Smiling as they watched the siblings, not interrupting.

After breakfast, everyone went about their business.

His father went to work, and his mother took Lin Duo to buy groceries.

Lin Fan, meanwhile, headed straight out of the city to the outskirts of Baiyun City.

Although he didn't need to grind for experience temporarily...

At least not until he broke through to the Elemental Divine Realm...

He still really needed Demonic Beast corpses.

Last night's auction made him realize that in the world of mages, seven billion yuan was nothing.

He was still very poor and had to earn more money!

Throughout the day, Lin Fan frantically hunted Demonic Beasts outside the city, storing all the corpses in his space pouch.

After reaching the Saint Mage Realm.

His storage space had long become absurdly large, no longer describable as a “pouch.”

In the evening.

Lin Fan returned to the city and headed straight to the Alliance Building to sell Demonic Beast corpses.

This time.

He brought back over ten thousand corpses, including many high-level mutated and aberrant Demonic Beasts.

Such an astonishing number left Wei Donglin and Jiang Tianhai speechless.

The huge room normally used to store items was almost overflowing, with no place to even stand.

The two spent a long time counting, also calling in many staff members to help.

They finally finished categorizing all the Demonic Beast corpses and magic cores.

After Jiang Tianhai calculated the price, Lin Fan's alliance card received 860 million yuan.

His total assets finally surpassed one billion.

But Lin Fan wasn't overly excited.

He knew very well.

This amount of money could be spent on a few magic items; he was still far from those wealthy young masters who squandered money.

After finishing his business at the Alliance, Lin Fan returned home.

The outskirts were peaceful, with Alliance members in uniform, armed with magic weapons, patrolling.

In a few dark alleys, several figures in simple clothes still lingered.
