The spiritual herb was soon delivered to Severin.
"That's amazing, Brother-in-Law! We got this on the cheap, didn't we?" Megan asked with a smile.
Severin answered, "We did. There are a lot of valuable items here, and it's almost like we're building up our own stock from the auction."
"The next item to be put up for auction is very valuable, though some people might not find it valuable at all," Caroline began.
Caroline's introduction left Sheila scratching her head. "How can something be valuable to some and have no value to others? It's really weird."
"This here is an cauldron. It's a third-grade spiritual tool that can increase the success rate of one's pill refinement by fifteen percent. More importantly, it is a triple-chamber cauldron. This means that there are three inner furnaces of which one batch of the same material can be placed in each respective chamber. This comes to a total of three batches, thus allowing the alchemist to refine three pills simultaneously. Though it is very demanding to control with one's mental power, an alchemist can achieve triple the result with half the effort," Caroline explained.
"There it is. That's what we came here for!" The girl in VIP Room Three looked at the small cauldron excitedly.
Someone in the audience exclaimed in surprise.
"Perhaps the person who put it up for auction believes that it is a genuine treasure, and they’re not wrong for thinking that way. An alchemist would find it exceptionally useful, but ordinary people like us won't have any use for it," an old man said with a chuckle.
Another old man beside him smiled wryly, "I am a first-grade medium-rank alchemist, but I can't afford to bid for it because it requires at least a second-grade alchemist to achieve proper control. Low-level alchemists aren't worthy of such a good cauldron, and they cannot use it either."
