Chapter 1236 Elysium of Nymphs

The fairy was glad that the grandmaster and the group did not look offended by her actions but there was a big question on her mind.

Why was this group purchasing items from the ground floor and the first floor with so much gusto when everything here was overpriced?

Only country bumpkins would do something like that. Could these people be stupid by any chance? If so it was a perfect opportunity for her to make some connections!

"Esteemed Grandmaster, if I may be so bold, please allow me to say something. Beware that the prices here are much higher than the typical prices of a system shop, goods being sold at a huge profit margin."

Hmmm. Liam paused. He wondered why the fairy attendant was being polite but he did not care about it too much. "Thank you for the information." He replied and continued walking.

The fairy seemed a lot more talkative, giving him all sorts of information about the rare goods in the shop which made Liam think of something else. "Tell me more about this world." He asked the attendant.

"Ah." The fairy became excited and started talking about Nymphomania. Even though she was a woman herself she did not have any problems talking explicitly about the pleasure palaces in Nymphomania and which establishments were famous and had high-quality women.

She also had no qualms talking about slave auctions and mentioned that the fifth island had the best slaves in the whole market.

Liam let her continue talking and finally, after she finished her introduction, he probed about this so-called twenty-first island.

The fairy appeared a little startled but then her expression relaxed. Perhaps she assumed that it was natural for someone who had a Grandmaster title to have extensive connections and hence know these things.

"Esteemed Grandmaster, the twenty-first island is the continent where the nymphs reside. It is said to be their homeland. They do not allow any outsiders to trespass in the region."

"But there is a section of the twenty-first island which is indeed open to a select few. This section is known as 'Elysium of Nymphs,' and it's a place of incredible beauty and even more incredible treasures." "It's where the rarest auctions are held, and items of unimaginable power and rarity are traded."

"However, gaining access is not merely a matter of wealth or status. You must be invited by the Nymphs themselves or someone of equivalent influence in Nymphomania. The invitations are rare, and the criteria for selection remain a mystery to most."

Liam listened intently, processing the information. It aligned with what Gary had mentioned, adding a layer of credibility to the lizardman's claims. "And how does one attract the attention of the Nymphs or earn such an invitation?" he inquired, curious about the protocol.

"Grandmaster Liam, if you are considering seeking an invitation, I would recommend establishing connections with influential figures here. Your status will certainly open doors." "Unfortunately, I am unable to help you more in this regard." The fairy then added with some hesitation. "I am only an attendant here. I hope that you are not offended by my inadequacy."

Liam nodded with a terse reply. "I appreciate your honesty and the information you've provided. It has been very helpful."

He then silently contemplated the newly acquired information just like the three walking behind him. No one had thought that there could potentially be some truth to what the crazy lizard spewed out but it turns out that not everything he said was bullshit.

This changed a lot of things. Liam suddenly found himself very interested in attending this exclusive auction.

The fairy then brought them over to the next floor which predominantly consisted of items. There were a lot of Rare-grade and Epic-grade items with powerful attributes and effects. Just one look at these made everyone drool but at the same time, their cost prices were enough to give heart attacks.

Liam did not bother buying anything from this level as he had already amassed a lot of items from the elves. His haul was better than the collection here on this floor.

The third floor also had a mix of raw materials and items and Liam did not find anything interesting enough to make a purchase.

The fourth floor was entirely devoted to alchemy and Liam's eyes gleamed as they entered the fourth floor. The air was thick with the scent of herbs and the essence of countless potions. Shelves and display cases were lined with vials and bottles of every shape and size, filled with liquids that shimmered, bubbled, and glowed and pills that inconspicuously sat.

The room buzzed with the energy of magical concoctions and rare ingredients and this floor was once again quite crowded. Alchemists, both amateur and experienced, milled about, examining the goods with keen interest. Some haggled with the attendants, while others whispered excitedly about their finds.

Liam moved among them, his eyes scanning the labels and descriptions. The fairy explained that each item here was of rare grade or higher and that many were one-of-a-kind. The prices were astronomical, reflecting their rarity and power.

Liam examined each item closely, noting their properties and effects. While many were impressive, offering immense boosts in strength, speed, and magical ability, none specifically targeted soul healing.

Liam then had an idea and turned to the attendant. "What about custom orders?" He inquired about custom orders or the possibility of acquiring such an item through the shop's connections.

The fairy hesitated a bit before shaking her head helplessly. "Please forgive me, esteemed Grandmaster. Our shop does not accept any custom orders."

However, it looked like it was not all bad news. "If you would like services such as this, perhaps you could visit the Pikachu Pill House."

Liam was seriously paying attention to the fairy's words when his expression abruptly changed and he almost stumbled forward. "Pikachu? Did you just say Pikachu?"

The fairy blinked her eyes innocently. "Yes, esteemed Grandmaster. Do you perhaps know of them beforehand? They are quite famous in Nymphomania."
