Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

John raised an eyebrow. 

This little card had such an impressive effect? 

The highest standard of treatment was nothing he cared much about. 

But a 10% reduction in the consignment fee was quite a shocking figure.

As time passed and players continued to explore the game, this effect would become even more crucial. 

By then, the items and equipment for auction would undoubtedly become more advanced. 

The 10% fee reduction would significantly increase John's income from each auction.

John pocketed the Dark Gold VIP Card and then turned his attention to the broken tooth-like item. 

However, the result of the detection spell was:

[????]

John's eyes suddenly sharpened. 

Even though he hadn't activated his divine skill, the Eye of Artemis, his current power level was enough to detect the details of most items. 

Yet, when he cast it on this item, he couldn't even find out its name. 

This object was far more intriguing than it appeared.

However, he didn't activate the Eye of Artemis right away. 

Instead, he called to Master Reo, who was about to leave. 

"Master, wait a moment. What is this?"

Master Reo glanced at the tooth-like object in John's hand and answered with a smile. 

"Two years ago, a mysterious old man traded this to our auction house as collateral. According to the agreement we signed at that time, if he didn't redeem it within a year, the item would automatically become the property of our auction house."

"Later on, the old man went to the Sunset Mountain in the northern border of Silverglow and was never heard from again."

"I must confess, in my lifetime as an appraiser, I have been unable to determine any information about this object. I can only assume it to be a tooth from some kind of beast. Though its purpose remains unknown, the high level of mystery surrounding it surely hides a secret," Master Reo said. "This item has remained in our warehouse ever since. We've invited other master appraisers to help, but all our findings have been the same—unknown. With your abilities, perhaps you might be able to uncover the truth behind this tooth."

John nodded thoughtfully as Master Reo exited the room, leaving only John and Isabella, who was staring at him with an awestruck expression. 

Her intense gaze made John slightly uncomfortable. 

"Miss Isabella, is there anything else?" he asked, bringing her back to her senses.

Blushing, Isabella immediately realized what she had just done, staring foolishly at a man. 

Lowering her gaze, she replied in a whisper, "Mr. Galewind, your earnings from the auction have been transferred to your account, a total of 140 million. Please check."

John was taken aback, "According to your auction house's commission standards, there should be a 20% deduction. How come it's as much as 140 million?"

Regaining her composure, Isabella looked up, "Didn't you forget? The Dark Gold VIP Card given to you just now reduces the commission by 10%, so our auction house only deducted 10%."

John stroked his chin, deep in thought, "I see. I thought it would only apply for the next auction."

"Then, in that case... Send me your account information."

Confused, Isabella sent him her account details. 

Shortly after, she received a notification:

"You have received a cash transfer of 10,000,000 in your savings account at xxx bank. Your current balance is 1xxxxxxx.xx..."

Isabella was stunned. 

It was 10 million. 

An amount she had never dared to dream of, not even a million. 

In real life, Isabella was just an ordinary girl from a normal family. 

She chose a life player role in the game Godslayer because it required minimal investment and could supplement her family's income.

Her lips parting in disbelief, she asked, "Mr. Galewind, what are you doing?"

John replied with a casual smile, "Consider it a reward for your diligent efforts in auctioning those two pieces of equipment. We will have many more opportunities to collaborate in the future. Keep up the good work."

Suddenly, Isabella felt a wave of happiness enveloping her. 

She was taken aback by the warmth filling her heart, and her carefully made-up eyes started to mist up.

This left John speechless. 

He quickly asked, "What's wrong? Is 10 million too little?"

Isabella shook her head vigorously, choking back tears, "No, not at all. 10 million is too much. I feel unworthy."

John chuckled lightly, saying nonchalantly, "Not at all. It's what you deserve..."

Isabella chuckled through her tears, her heart growing even warmer from his recognition. 

Out of the blue, she said, "Thank you, Mr. Galewind, for acknowledging my efforts. You really are the best person in the world." With that, she rushed out of the room.

John was left standing dumbfounded. 

He touched his nose and shook his head wryly, "I can't believe I got my first 'nice guy' card here. How dramatic."

...

Silver Manor. 

The largest and most lavishly decorated pub in Silverglow. 

The fact it was called a manor attested to its grandeur. 

Located in the northwest corner of Silverglow, it spanned hundreds of hectares. 

Building such a vast pub in a city where every inch is valuable says a lot. 

Rumor has it that the owner of Silver Manor might have close ties with some members of the Northern Myst Empire royal family.

The main building of Silver Manor was a gigantic castle, surrounded by an incredibly expansive open-air courtyard, complete with pavilions, bridges, and ponds. 

A squad of heavily armored warriors stood guard at the entrance.

John casually cast a scouting spell, surprised to find that the average level of these warriors was over 100. 

John raised an eyebrow. 

Silver Manor was indeed more profound than he had thought. 

These doormen were even stronger than the high-ranking soldiers of the city guard.

Entering the manor's main gate, John headed towards the castle, passing many small, pavilion-like structures intended for patrons who enjoyed their drinks alfresco. 

As he saw the imposing 10-meter-tall castle, his astonishment grew.

The NPCs entering and leaving the castle were all notable figures in Silverglow. 

If not the boss of a large business, they were senior officials from the Silverglow City Hall. 

While admiring the high production value of the game, John walked into the castle.

The noise that greeted him made him frown. 

The first floor was bustling. 

NPCs and players were clustered in small groups, discussing topics of interest. 

Uniformed waiters weaved between guests, periodically placing trays of drinks on the tables.

Upon seeing John enter, a gracefully curved female waiter came to greet him. 

"Welcome to Silver Manor, esteemed guest. Do you have a reservation?" 

John glanced at the waiter. 

To his surprise, the stunning woman with a curvaceous figure was dressed in rags. 

The few pieces of cloth she wore covered only the sensitive areas, the rest of her was exposed to the air.

Her head was adorned with bunny ears, adding to her seductive allure. 

John silently marveled, "Daring to employ such scantily clad women as waitresses, the owner of Silver Manor sure isn't afraid of customers losing control after drinking."

However, it didn't take him long to understand why the patrons didn't dare to get frisky with the waitresses. 

He cast another scouting spell and found out that the level of this waitress was a whopping 120, even higher than the guards at the entrance, and her class was...a mage.

This revelation made John even more curious about the owner of Cloud Manor. 

What sort of powerful backing did it take to have a team of level 100+ mages serving as waitresses?

Noticing her new guest seemingly lost in thought, the waitress did not rush him. 

She patiently stood by John's side, her smile unwavering. 

After a moment, John snapped out of his reverie. 

He gave the waitress an apologetic smile, "Sorry, I was lost in thought. Yes, I have a reservation..."

John checked his chat log, "Where is Suite No.8 on the 'Heaven' floor?"

The bunny girl waitress bowed slightly, extending a hand in gesture, "The 'Heaven' suites are on the second floor, please follow me." 

With her movement, her ample bosom undulated impressively.

After John nodded, the waitress led the way. 

Each sway of her hips seemed infused with a mesmerizing charm. 

Suddenly, John furrowed his brows. 

He realized these waitresses weren't typical mages; they were more like a seldom-seen class: Enchantresses.

Enchantresses also belonged to the mage class but were primarily female practitioners, with skills mainly centered around passive charming abilities. 

John's suspicion arose because he found his gaze involuntarily attracted to these waitresses.
