Chapter 319: [Whip of Torture]

After the few people returned to the study, Ethan directly handed the whip to Doguli's hand.

"Your Excellency Doguli, take a look and see if this is the whip you want."

Doguli took the whip and gently stroked the patterns on it.

Feeling the fluctuations of star power coming from it, he was very sure that this was one of the seven sins artifacts [Whip of Abuse].

"That's right! This is it! Mr. Ethan, how much do you want it to cost?"

"I don't know its value, please give me a price!" Ethan replied with a smile, looking indifferent.

Doguli lowered his head and pondered for a while, and finally made an offer: "Four hundred and thirty thousand gold, this is the limit we can offer."

After hearing this, Ethan was slightly shocked.

What was shocking was not the price, but the fact that Doguli took the initiative to reveal the true price.

Doesn't he think I'm stupid?

Why did you suddenly change your temper?

It turns out that Catherine had just told Ethan that this whip was worth hundreds of thousands of gold.

Ethan was shocked at the time, but he didn't say anything. When he was about to negotiate, he used the other party's fraud to raise the price.

But as soon as the other party came up, he gave a fairly fair price, which instantly frustrated his plan.

And Doguli originally planned to deceive Ethan.

After seeing that Ethan even lost his title order and didn't even know it, one can imagine how clumsy this person is.

If this happened to the Borgia family, it would cost several lives.

But not only was he not angry, he actually didn't even say a harsh word to the little girl.

It's simply unbelievable.

However, on the other hand, it can also be seen that this great sword master has a kind heart.

This is a good quality, but being kind-hearted is in other words stupid.

Although Doguli had already defined Ethan as a fool in his heart and was ready to implement his plan, but at the critical moment, he suddenly figured out that it was not worth offending the sword master to save some money.

Since you bought the artifact, sooner or later it will be used, even if you don't use it, sooner or later the value of the artifact will reach Ethan's ears.

If the other party knew that he had been cheated, he would have been cheated so miserably.

Considering the strength of this great sword master, the consequences would be disastrous.

In this world, the only people who can be fooled are those who have no strength.

Because they won't resist, and they don't have the time or energy to resist.

But if you fool such a rich, powerful, and absolutely powerful sword master, things will not be that simple.

He can easily get this artifact once, then he can get it a second time.

There is no doubt about this.

Why take the risk when you can solve the problem with money.

So, it’s not worth it!

Doguli finally made a realistic offer.

Of course, he also reserved a hand. It can't be said that he reserved a hand. It can only be said that he didn't give a full price.

But you can't blame him. After all, there is no record of artifact trading in the world, and no one knows how to measure this thing in terms of money.

Therefore, it is normal for him to be conservative.

He hopes to end the fight in the four hundred thousand range.

However, Catherine didn't think so.

"This old bastard's base price is 700,000. He won't be able to afford it any higher."

Hearing Catherine's telepathy, the corners of Ethan's eyes twitched.

Wow, this broken whip is actually worth so much money, that’s amazing!

However, Ethan did not directly report his price, but said: "Sir Doguli, you may not know how much risk I took for this whip.

Perhaps Miss Camilla told you that I defeated [Twisted Hand] effortlessly, but that is not the truth.

What she saw was only the result, she didn't see the process clearly.

In other words, she didn't understand at all.

The degree of danger is actually far beyond imagination.

After all, the other party is the Four Horsemen of Heaven's Punishment. I think you should understand what I mean.

It shows that what you see is not necessarily the reality.

In fact, I was already in danger when I competed with him. It was a competition of will and endurance.

At that time, as long as I made a small mistake or my willpower was slightly weak, I would be the one who died.

…”

Ethan chattered for half an hour, during which he did not say a word about money, but every word was about money.

This is a trick he learned after suffering many losses.

I originally thought that Doguli would be impatient when he heard it, and then he would interrupt the conversation like he did before, and then quote a more sincere price.

Unexpectedly, Duo Guli was not impatient, but actually listened with great interest.

Ethan's mouth was dry when he said it, and he ran out of words he could make up, and he couldn't get the other person to speak.

Only then did Ethan realize that this trick could not be used by just anyone.

Likewise, it doesn't work for everyone.

It was only at this time that he admired Torisk's eloquence even more.

That old boy is really amazing. He talked about the postpartum care of Eagle Eagle for several hours.

Starting from the hatching of eggs, he talked about various precautions for raising them as adults, and the more he talked about it, the more excited he became.

As if he has found a confidant, he shares his nurturing experience endlessly.

It can be seen from this that he really likes eagles and is sincerely doing research in this area.

But Ethan killed the [Twisted Hand] in a daze. He wanted to make it up, but he really couldn't.

In the end I couldn't talk anymore, so I could only drink coffee to hide my embarrassment.

Doguli could see that Ethan was lying, and he also knew the purpose of Ethan's lies.

But he did not expose it, and listened very patiently, nodding his head from time to time to show his agreement.

After all, patience is the most critical factor in negotiations.

Finally, seeing that Ethan stopped talking, he slowly said: "Does Mr. Ethan know the origin of this whip?"

Ethan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I would like to hear the details!"

"This whip is called [Whip of Abuse], which is one of the seven sins." Doguli said with a smile, "Originally, it was brought out by a very special elf from the elf clan.

She gave this artifact to [Death] Anastasia, and helped humans drive away the orcs.

After driving away the orcs, the whip was not taken back, but remained in the human camp, and has been in the hands of [Death] Anastasia.

At that time, she accepted two apprentices, one was [Element God] Merlin, and the other was [Original [First Witch] Frederica.

Because the [God of Death] favored the [Original Witch], she gave this artifact to the [Original Witch] before ascending.

However, the [Original Witch] herself did not like this artifact. She thought that the name and characteristics of this artifact were too cruel, so she never wore it and just sealed it.

Later, the [Original Witch] was burned to death, and the high-level members of the Witch Cult unsealed the artifact and took it away.

Over the past thousand years, this artifact has been passed around for several times and finally fell into the hands of the [Twisted Hand].

This is the origin of this artifact.

And the [Twisted Hand] is actually an inherited title! "

After hearing this, Ethan was stunned for a long time and didn't understand why Doguli told him this.

But after thinking about it, he finally reacted.

This old guy is saying, look, I know the origin of this whip very well, so I know its value very well.

My asking price is reasonable.
