End of Auction 1

Shortly after the tenth item of the night was auctioned off, the first of the last three items of the night that were publicly known in the city appeared in the middle of the auction platform.

The auctioneer smiled and displayed a multifaceted emerald crystal about ten centimeters in length. 

The crystal glowed with a pulsating inner light and was encased in golden metal, with engravings of dragons and runes. 

The native presented the item to everyone. "This is the Ascending Dragon Prism. It is an absorbable artifact of immense power, created to integrate into living bodies like an appendage, granting extraordinary abilities and the ability to form a powerful exoskeleton.

By integrating with this artifact, its bearer can become an unbeatable warrior even at the high level of the 11th stage.

When it is not activated, it integrates into the wearer's body like an appendage at the base of the spine, as shown in the painting depicting it."
