Alex surveyed the area and discovered that not only the eye–catching beauty seemed to look on keenly, but there were also some antique store owners who were interested in the onyx.

He could not help but look intently at the onyx that was in the vendor’s hand.

Huh?

The onyx had a special pattern, akin to a rune on it. Generally, antiques engraved with this runic symbol indicated that it was genuine. Some parts of the onyx not covered with mud seemed to be reflecting a faint glow.

This onyx piqued his interest.

Satisfied with his observation, Alex asked, “Good sir, how much is this onyx?”

He knew that the vendor was not lying. The plain–looking onyx was indeed the Palantirstone.

It was a million–year–old naturally–occurring sedimentary stone known as the Noldor shale stone, and since it contained jade and agate in it, it is an almost one–of–a–kind gem.

In a normal auction, these kinds of gems with runic engravings were usually sold for tens of millions, basically at staggering amounts.

The vendor stretched out his hand and gestured, “Eight hundred thousand and not one cent less.”

As he said that, his eyes flickered, revealing a certain trace of craftiness.
