Tang Ling had no idea that something interesting had happened on Base. On the contrary, the auction of the King's Bone made him experience the true meaning of torture.
Indeed, to Tang Ling, so many good things had appeared before his eyes and he had to experience how good they were. However, none of them had anything to do with him. It was indeed a kind of torture for him.
More importantly, the strange rules of Auction House Zero prevented Tang Ling from even having a chance to compete for the items, which further aggravated the torture.
On top of that, he seemed to be rich every time. However, he would become a pauper every minute.
Fine, even if he did not become a pauper this time, he would be slapped in the face by reality every minute, telling himself that he did not have that much money.
What kind of torture was this?
Tang Ling leaned back on the comfortable egg, feeling a little depressed. He was thinking about whether he should stop looking at the items or not. It had nothing to do with him anyway.
At the end of the day, he had to save up enough funds for the gene serums. He did not even have the right to buy anything.
At this point in the auction, two-thirds of the auction items had been revealed. Perhaps it was because the bones of the super-class Direbeasts were too tempting, but according to the occasional emotional expression of the quiet host, everyone seemed to be holding back on the other auction items. Hence, the atmosphere at the auction was not very enthusiastic, and there were even a few items that were normally precious that were not auctioned.
However, the auction had to continue.
"Level 9 vicious beast essence blood." The host was a little dispirited.
In the auction hall, the Level 9 vicious beast essence blood was nothing. Such an item was not even enough to stir up the atmosphere. It seemed like the auction would have to rely on the super vicious beast's bone in the end.
However, the host's lack of interest piqued Tang Ling's interest.
The Level 9 vicious beast essence blood was exactly what he needed!
Back in the Dream Domain, Kun had given Tang Ling an extremely precious spirit formation. After completing the first layer, Tang Ling truly felt the benefits of the formation. His spirit was growing every day.
Therefore, Tang Ling really wanted to complete the second layer of the formation.
However, it was once an unattainable thought. After all, the requirements for the ingredients were too harsh, especially the blood of a Level 9 vicious beast.
After Tang Ling became rich, he purposely searched for the materials, but all he could find in the black market was some Level 9 vicious beast blood with insufficient activity. The active blood required by the body array was nowhere to be found, let alone the Level 9 vicious beast blood in the ring that Tang Long had given him.
Many shopkeepers told him that he could only try his luck at the auction if he wanted to find the blood.
However, he did not have the time to participate in that many auctions and try his luck.
Whether it was the Seagod's Gift or the Seagod's Tear, they were all different from this kind of blood. As for why it was different, Tang Ling had no idea. All he heard from the owner of the deserted island was that the difference was due to time.
In other words, whether it was the Sea God's Gift or the Sea God's Tear, even though they were blood, they could only be formed after a long period of time and certain harsh conditions.
They were undoubtedly more precious, especially the Neptune's Tear.
But so what if it was precious? They were not a substitute for the Level 9 vicious beast blood.
Tang Ling had originally decided to put the body array aside, but he did not expect to be so lucky.
Therefore, he was determined to get his hands on this tube of blood that contained around 20 drops.
Holding back his excitement, Tang Ling focused on the data that popped up in front of him.
It was a tube of standard Level 9 vicious beast blood with high activity. It came from the Silverstriped Lightning Wolf King, which was considered mid-tier among the Level 9 vicious beasts.
The data was very detailed, and there were even a few examples of the uses of this tube of blood, including body arrays.
However, Tang Ling did not have the time to care about all that. After going through the data, he joined the auction without a second thought.
Perhaps the blood of a Level 9 vicious beast was not that valuable in this kind of auction. After the base price was revealed, it was only 150,000 Origin Source.
Tang Ling heaved a breath of relief when he saw the number. The price would not affect his purchase of the gene serum, so he could only hope that the big shots were not that interested in the blood.
Luck was on Tang Ling's side this time. The big shots did not seem to have much demand for the blood.
After all, many of the people in the auction house were strong enough to fight a Level 9 vicious beast, so there was no need for them to buy the blood through auctions.
The rest of the people had their own connections, so they might be able to get the blood at a cheaper price through other means.
Therefore, there were only four to five people who joined the auction. After two to three rounds of bidding, everyone lost interest.
Tang Ling bought it at a price of 280,000 Origin Stones.
After the auctioneer dropped the gavel, Tang Ling heaved a long breath of relief. He was satisfied that he was able to get something out of an auction of this level. He was already planning to draw the second layer of the body array and purchase the materials through the professional managers.
'The next item has nothing to do with me anymore.' Tang Ling thought. He had no intention of bidding anymore.
However, when the next item appeared, Tang Ling's heart was filled with complicated emotions.
"Horror Lullaby, also known as the Tinder List Book Set," said the auctioneer. As the host spoke, a large, exquisite crystal box appeared in front of him.
In this crystal box, there were seven copper-colored pages.
Five silver pages.
Two golden pages.
One dark gold page.
Finally, there was even a sparkling diamond book page.
After the book set appeared, Tang Ling did not see any data or description. Instead, the reserved auctioneer gave a rare introduction, "Everyone here knows what it's used on the surface.
However, the deeper use is still unknown. It's the most important legacy of the legendary Dragon Army leader, Tang Feng.
Those who need it will naturally collect it. "
After a few simple introductions, the auctioneer went quiet. Other than the auctioneer, no one else was present in the auction house. Therefore, Tang Ling did not receive any response from anyone.
He looked at the book set on the stage with complicated emotions. He looked at the big screen that displayed the book set over and over again, unable to describe his feelings.
Should I join the auction? But what does Tang Feng's legacy have to do with me? This kind of booklet was of no use to him.
Should I not join the auction? Tang Ling was a little absent-minded. He kept thinking about the journey to Darkness Port and the so-called map notebook that he flipped through from time to time. That person in the notebook had a strange conversation with him.
Even the conversation was annoying, but it felt like … like … like …
Tang Ling clenched his fists. He was not a person who was afraid to face his own heart, but he was unwilling to admit it. It felt like that person had been with him all the way, accompanying him through this lonely and dangerous journey.
With that in mind, Tang Ling reached out his finger and wanted to join the auction on the screen.
However, he still felt like he would hate himself if he joined the auction.
He would think about that night when Tang Long, no, his brother, left. Tang Ling's lonely figure on the boat.
Tang Ling must have hated him more than he did.
If not for Tang Feng, he would not have become brothers. With that in mind, Tang Ling quickly retracted his finger.
The auctioneer said lazily, "There's no special experience or introduction. According to the rules, you will have two minutes to think about it. Now, the countdown starts. 10 seconds left. "
Tang Ling looked up abruptly when he heard the auctioneer's words.
10, 9, 8 … Every single countdown felt like a dagger stabbing his heart.
Boss Huang also has a lot of diamond pages. Why don't I want them? Why don't I feel this bad?
It's because I always feel at ease when I'm at Boss Huang's place! It won't end up in the wild. However, this set even includes the diamond pages …
It was then that Tang Ling finally extended his hand and pressed the button to participate in the auction heavily.
He could not help it. He could not force Tang Feng to stay. The thing that he valued the most would end up in the wild, even though it was useless.
Tang Ling stared blankly at the starting bid after he chose to join the auction. It was 3 million Sources, and his mind buzzed.
It's a very expensive price! Every increment must not be lower than 30,000 Sources! I should just randomly bid later, shouldn't I?
Tang Ling unavoidably regretted his decision, but as soon as he regretted it, he started to feel pain.
The seemingly useless auctioneer showed a slightly excited expression at that moment. Judging from the first time he showed such an expression, Tang Ling knew that there would be a lot of people joining the auction this time!
3,030,000 Sources!
From the moment the auctioneer announced the start of the auction, the first number jumped on the screen eagerly.
Then, a series of numbers popped up on the screen. While Tang Ling was struggling with his emotions, less than 20 seconds later, the price rose to 4 million Origin Stones. It seemed like someone was getting impatient with the 30,000-30,000 Origin Stones increment.
"Even a strand of hair from Tang Feng's body is fragrant? I don't even know what it's used for. "Tang Ling clenched his teeth, but he still joined the first bid.
The first bid was an additional 200,000 Sources.
"F * ck! Am I crazy?" The price had exceeded Tang Ling's bottom line because it would definitely affect the quality of the gene serum.
However, this price could not dampen the enthusiasm of those bigwigs for the list of tinder.
The price was still rising!
In the blink of an eye, it had reached 5 million Sources.
"Should I give up?" At that very moment, Tang Ling's eyes were bloodshot and his breath turned heavy.
