Chapter 1315 Avalon Auction I
Unlike the other territories owned by other players that have restriction, Adrian let anyone be able to go to his territory. Any race is welcomed which means he could gain something from this auction. In fact, a lot of other races that are hated by human led settlements have come early to also put things for auction.
The floating islands became the envy and awe of others as they saw the sight of it. The large Tree of Life and Death located at the middle island named Alpha also garnered the most attention. The auction is not just for players because NPCs are also participating since it was told to all surrounding nations.
The merchant guild grandmaster even attended in person as he wanted to see the Pocket Dimension Auction Hall. The merchant guild grandmaster is surprised by the auction hall as it did not adhere to the rules of the outside world. The VIP rooms that the auction hall has could be described as mini pocket dimensions.
The security is top notch that guards are almost unnecessary. In fact, the security of Avalon is so high that the merchant guild only hired a few escorts since the Daemos are very alert. The other races that live in Avalon also revere Adrian as he is the Champion of the Twin Gods. He is their proxy on the mortal plane which is why they dare not to desecrate his territory.
The merchant guild is located at the island of Gamma since Pann does not want his babies to be disturbed by merchants. Most of the businesses is located at Gamma Island as the island of Alpha is a restricted zone only available to the members of the Church of the Twin Gods.
Since an event is being held in Avalon, Adrian told the guards to be very alert as there might be followers of gods with bad intentions. All the Daemos Corps that are not fixing rifts are stationed in Avalon along with the paladins of the Church of the Twin Gods. Adrian also left his soulbounds in all corners of the territory to guard them.
Saena could be seen circling on top of the Tree of Life and Death as she did her duty as the guardian. It also meant to warn anyone that she will attack any being that dares to enter the main island. Teleportation circles are available in each island that can directly transport you to another island which is why any excuse of being lost is unacceptable.
The provisionary guild members are also tasked with guarding Avalon, but they are also being monitored by Adrian. He told the demons tasked as observers to report to him immediately if they do something suspicious. Adrian even tasked Sirius to send them directly to the Shadow Realm should they do something unruly.
"The number of guests far exceeded my expectation! Princes from other countries even went here to join the auction. This is the biggest player auction that I have hosted!" Piggy Bank stated as he did not expect such a reception.
"Just make sure that everything goes according to plan. We must make sure to show them the specialty of this territory. Each of the races under me presented something to be auctioned which they made for this auction. You could say that all of Avalon has poured their heart out for this auction." Adrian stated and Piggy Bank nodded his head.

"We cannot risk going there, Mistress Mikaela. The demons are being very vigilant. The seven already declared the demons the enemies of all our kind. They will surely attack us on sight." One of the angels stated.
"We will be safe as long as all of you behave and show no sign of using light elemental magic. The scouts said that the chosen Nephilim is there in Avalon." Mikaela stated.
"Can we not say that we were not welcomed?" another angel aid possessing a human stated.
"We must see for ourselves what level the demons are. You do not win in war if you are blind to the power of your enemy. It is fortunate that this body I am possessing is of royal blood. We can just go inside without a problem because we have an invitation." Mikaela stated as she wanted to get information of the territory of Avalon.
The angels could not even use their mastery of light to peer inside Avalon because of the aura covering the territory. The Tree of Life and Death is obscuring the territory from the prying eyes of any magic or artifact. A lot of territories have tried but all they see is a blurry silhouette and some have been warned by the demons as they were caught peeping.
It was not just the angels that are thinking of surveying Avalon. All the territories that want to conquer other territories are even thinking of allying themselves if they see how powerful Avalon is. This auction is not just a normal auction as this is also way for other lords to assess their strength.
A lot of eyes are also in Avalon as the auction is also broadcasted as the Pantheon guild members wanted to increase the territory\'s reputation. It is also a way to broadcast to players that are unable to go to Avalon what the territory has to offer. Adrian wanted to increase the trade happening in Avalon and he is starting this revolution.
