The auction proceeded smoothly. However, although it was smooth, it was somewhat dull. Currently, only Gold equipment and the like were being auctioned. The truly large Guilds had yet to make a move. Hence, although the bidding was not very enthusiastic, the auction would only take two or three calls before the auction was completed.
Li Huailin had not found anything suitable for him, so he had not raised his paddle yet. Li Huailin had always wanted to try raising his paddle, but he had never had the opportunity to do so.
"The next item is item number 021. On page 3 of the manual, this is a rare Warrior Skill Book …" Auctioneer Wang Conglin said.
"Oh?" Hearing the mention of a Warrior Skill Book, Li Huailin, who was about to fall asleep, suddenly woke up. It seemed that he had a chance.
"Everyone, please look over here. This Skill is called Rising Dragon Strike." As Wang Conglin spoke, the Mana Crystal Screen on the stage began to play an image of a Warrior casting this Skill. It seemed that this was a demonstration of someone who had learned this Skill.
"Rising Dragon Strike (LV1, 0/200): Allows you to charge 5 yards forward and attack once upwards, dealing 105% + 75 damage. There is also a certain chance to knock the enemy into the air for 1.75 seconds. The success rate is related to the difference in Strength between both sides. Instant Cast. Mana Consumption: 160. Cooldown: 14 seconds. Class Requirement: Warrior. Level Requirement: 50. " Wang Conglin immediately introduced the Skill. Coupled with the image being broadcasted, everyone quickly understood the Skill's information.
"As everyone can see, this is a very suitable Skill for PvP. Warriors are originally a class with high Strength, so after using this Skill, there is a high chance of knocking the opponent into the air. Right, let me explain the situation of being knocked into the air. After an enemy is knocked into the air, they will not be able to move or attack. However, unlike a Stun, being knocked into the air will not prevent the enemy from using Skills. In other words, while the enemy is in the air, they can use Instant Cast Skills. Everyone, please take note of this. " Wang Conglin quickly introduced the Skill's advantages and disadvantages. "This Skill is very suitable for offensive Warriors with high Strength. So, what are everyone waiting for? The starting bid is 300 Gold, and each increment must be no less than 10 Gold. Please start bidding. 300 Gold, 300 Gold, anyone bidding?"
"Me!" Li Huailin happily raised the sign. He wanted to try raising the sign today. It felt really good.
"Alright, someone has made a bid. 300 gold, number 689 … Eh? This … this seems to be Brother Awesome. " Wang Conglin, who was on the stage, looked down and realized that the person who had made the bid looked very familiar. After thinking about it, he realized that it was none other than Brother Awesome Bro, Chest Like a Forest.
"Thank you, Brother Awesome, for coming." Wang Conglin chuckled, nodding at Li Huailin in greeting. "In that case, Number 689, Brother Awesome, bids 300 Gold. Are there any other bidders?"
"330 …" A voice came from behind. Li Huailin turned his head slightly and saw a male player in his thirties. Li Huailin didn't recognize him.
"330 Gold. Number 370 bids 330 Gold. Any higher bids?" Wang Conglin asked.
"350 Gold," another voice called out. Once again, it was the person behind Li Huailin.
"350 Gold. Someone has bid 350 Gold. Is there anyone willing to bid 400 Gold?" Wang Conglin took advantage of the situation to ask.
"Here." As soon as Wang Conglin finished speaking, someone raised their sign.
"Number 107 bids 400 Gold. Are there any higher bids?" Wang Conglin asked.
"Four hundred Gold …" Another person shouted. This time, it was Number 330 who raised the bid.
"Alright. Number 330 bids 450 Gold. Is there anyone willing to bid 500 Gold now?" Wang Conglin was a little happy. He hadn't expected so many people to fight over the skill book. The price was quite high.
"Here …" Li Huailin raised his sign once more.
"Brother Awesome? Can you accept 500 Gold? "Wang Conglin asked.
"No." Li Huailin shook his head. "One thousand Gold."
"Oh …" Soft gasps of surprise came from the crowd. From 450 Gold to 1,000 Gold, this fellow was really rich.
"Are you sure about one thousand Gold?" Wang Conglin asked.
"Mhm." Li Huailin nodded.
"Alright. Number 689's Awesome Bro bids 1,000 Gold. Are there any higher bids?" Wang Conglin asked as he looked at Number 330. After giving the matter some thought, Number 330 shook his head.
"In that case, one thousand Gold going once … one thousand Gold going twice …" Wang Conglin knew that this price was already high enough. Most likely, nobody else would compete with Li Huailin. Hence, he began to call out the bids.
"One thousand, one hundred Gold." Suddenly, a voice entered the room.
"Huh?" Wang Conglin was slightly stunned. He hadn't expected someone to actually bid. Turning to look, he said, "Number 002, Guild Leader of Spirit World, Kai Wang, bids 1,100 Gold. Are you sure about this, Guild Leader Kai Wang?"
"Mhm …" Kai Wang nodded. He then smiled at Li Huailin.
"Oh? This is quite interesting. "Li Huailin suddenly smiled.
"Kai Wang …" Night Flight frowned. "He's here to cause trouble."
"I know." Li Huailin nodded. Although Kai Wang was a Warrior, he didn't have much need for this Skill Book. After all, the other party's focus should be on the Land Deed. Everyone was pooling their money to bid for the Land Deed. Who would waste their money on something else? Hence, it was obvious that the other party was here to cause trouble.
"In that case … Guild Leader King Kai bids 1,100 Gold. Is there anyone else?" After Wang Conglin finished speaking, he turned to look at Li Huailin.
"Give it to him. Although this Skill Book is very valuable, it's only worth 500 Gold at most. Spending 1,000 Gold is already a loss," Night Flight said.
"The problem is that if I give it to him, he might not have enough money to bid for the Land Deed. If that happens, we won't be able to swindle him," Li Huailin said.
"This …" Night Flight frowned. This was going to be troublesome.
"In that case, 1,100 Gold going once …" Seeing that Li Huailin didn't respond, Wang Conglin began to count.
Li Huailin's side was quite annoyed. The funny thing was that the World King and the others were also starting to become nervous. This was because Li Huailin actually didn't bid anymore. He didn't want this skill book, he wanted the land deed. Originally, he hadn't planned on bidding. However, before the auction began, he received very bad news. Li Huailin had actually brought more than 74,000 Gold to the auction. Unfortunately, Kai Wang had only collected 72,000 Gold after two days of fundraising. In other words, his total Gold was less than Li Huailin's. Seeing this, Kai Wang grew anxious. On the off chance that Li Huailin went all-in, he would lose the Land Deed.
Just as Shi Feng was fretting over what to do, he never thought that Li Huailin would actually make a move. For some reason, Li Huailin had actually taken a liking to the Skill Book. He had even placed a bid of 1,000 Gold. It seemed that Li Huailin really liked the Skill Book.
Kai Wang believed that Li Huailin definitely wanted the Skill Book. He was sure that Li Huailin was here for the Land Deed as well. However, if Li Huailin insisted on bidding for the Skill Book at such a crucial moment, it meant that this Skill Book held a fatal attraction to Li Huailin. Hence, Kai Wang immediately thought of a solution. He would raise the Skill Book's price to at least 2,000 Gold from Li Huailin. That way, he would have more Gold on him than Li Huailin. Then, when the time came for the Land Deed, he would be able to obtain it.
However, Shi Feng never imagined that after he placed a bid of 1,100 Gold, Li Huailin would stop bidding. Wouldn't this give Shi Feng a headache? On the off chance that Li Huailin decided to stop bidding, wouldn't the gap between the two of them widen?
Could it be? Kai Wang looked at Li Huailin. Could it be that Li Huailin did not know how much money he had and had deliberately reduced his bid?
"1,100 Gold going twice …" Wang Conglin shouted once more. At this moment, Kai Wang grew anxious. Brother Awesome, hurry up and shout! I beg of you!
"1,500 Gold." Perhaps Li Huailin had heard Kai Wang's thoughts, but Li Huailin actually raised his hand once more. Moreover, Li Huailin immediately called for 1,500 Gold.
"1,500 Gold?" Wang Conglin was slightly surprised. Naturally, he knew how much this Skill Book was worth. He never thought that it would actually fetch such a price. "Alright. Brother Awesome, Number 689, bids 1,500 Gold. Are there any more bids? Are there any more bids? "
After saying so, Wang Conglin turned to look at Kai Wang's side once more. It was obvious that only these two parties were bidding at this moment.
Kai Wang felt conflicted once more. If Li Huailin bid 1,500 Gold for this Skill Book, he would still have a little more money than he did. This … Kai Wang had to wonder if there was anything else similar to this Skill Book that Li Huailin wanted. If there wasn't, he would still have less money than Li Huailin during the bidding for the Land Deeds.
What if he took the risk to raise the bid again? Kai Wang was truly uncertain whether or not Li Huailin would continue bidding. If Li Huailin really did not bid, wouldn't he be in trouble?
"Guild Leader, let's bid again. As long as Li Huailin bids 2,000 Gold, we'll have more money than him," Vice Guild Leader Li Ren suggested.
"Alright." Kai Wang gritted his teeth. He had no other choice. He could only try bidding and hope that Li Huailin truly liked this Skill Book.
"1,900 Gold," Kai Wang said as he raised his paddle.
"Oh …" A wave of exclamations came from the auction hall. A Skill Book had actually sold for the highest price so far.
"1,900 Gold. Guild Leader Kai Wang bids 1,900 Gold in Lot 002. Brother Awesome, 2,000 Gold. Do you accept this price?" Auctioneer Wang Conglin asked.
"I give up …" Li Huailin smiled faintly. He then raised his hand and said, "Guild Leader Kai Wang seems to really like this Skill Book. In that case, I'll let you have it."
"Nani?" Kai Wang was stunned.
"1,900 Gold going once … 1,900 Gold going twice … 1,900 Gold going thrice … Sold!" Wang Conglin fiercely smashed his gavel and said, "Congratulations to Guild Leader Kai Wang for obtaining this Skill Book for 1,900 Gold."
Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! The auction hall immediately erupted into applause.
"Huailin, this isn't good. With 1,900 Gold, Kai Wang might not be able to obtain the Land Deed." Although Night Flight felt relieved when he saw Kai Wang's face, his plan could no longer be carried out.
"Don't worry … That Skill Book is still mine. I want Kai Wang to obediently give it to me …" Li Huailin said.
