"Eye of the Thunder, Level-45 Rare-grade sniper rifle."
"Attack 750, Attack Coefficient C-, + 10 Strength, + 20 Agility, effective shooting range 1300m …"
On the auction stage, as the 3D image of the Eye of the Thunder was transmitted by the auction system to the floating screen in front of everyone, the elegant male auctioneer in white casual clothes began to introduce it excitedly.
"Rare Attribute: 15% chance of the bullet having an electric current effect, causing 1500 points of additional electric damage!
"Of course, this is the attribute of the Eye of the Thunder with a perfect evaluation. However, even with a standard evaluation, the rare attribute's trigger rate is still as high as 10%! "
The male auctioneer kept talking about the various advantages and attributes of the Eye of the Thunder, trying to "heat up" the auction.
"Most importantly, in addition to the additional damage of more than 1,000 points, the electric current on the bullet will trigger the 'electric shock' effect, which can cause the target to enter a state of severe mobility impairment. For a Sniper, I'm sure everyone understands the importance of this! "
"In addition, perhaps many people will think that the 10% trigger rate is not high. However, please note that in the attribute of this sniper rifle, there is a 35% reduction in the shooting interval. This means that when other sniper rifles fire two shots, it can fire three shots. This means that the trigger rate is directly increased by half! "
The male auctioneer looked excited as he loudly "hoodwinked" the buyers!
As a professional auctioneer, he used some words that sounded reasonable, but in fact were not, to hoodwink the buyers into thinking and then successfully bid for the item!
As for the buyers who won the item and thought about it seriously and realized that it was not the case, then it was not the auctioneer's problem!
"Moreover, the 10% trigger rate is only for the case of one Eye of the Thunder. Think about it, what if there were ten Eye of the Thunder? The rare attribute's trigger rate would increase tenfold to 100%!
"This is something that other sniper rifles can't achieve, but the Eye of the Thunder can.
"Because it is a mass-produced top-notch Rare sniper rifle!"
The male auctioneer no longer cared if the math teacher would vomit blood. The more he spoke, the more excited he became!
"I believe everyone knows the meaning of equipment 'mass-produced.' This is a reward that can only be obtained by creating a perfect-grade Eye of the Thunder!
"In this auction, we will provide everyone with Perfect, Excellent, and Standard sniper rifles of different grades. And in the first round of the auction, we have provided everyone with a total of ten Eye of the Thunder! "
"Imagine if ten sniper rifles fired at the same time, with 100% Rare Attribute activated, neither players nor monsters would be able to fight back at all!"
"Even a Level 50 Elite, Commander, or even a Quasi-Boss with high Agility would be completely suppressed by it, not to mention in a PK match. It is an unbeatable existence!"
…
The two auctioneers on stage took turns to praise the Eye of the Thunder. Some players' eyes were already shining!
Of course, there were many sober people.
Because there was actually a huge problem with his words.
Firstly, one Eye of the Thunder had a 10% chance. Ten guns having a 100% chance of triggering the rare attribute was clearly a false conclusion. It was a deliberate misdirection!
Secondly, it was impossible for ten Eyes of the Thunder to hit a player simultaneously during PvP.
Even if a Heavy Armor Warrior was hit ten times by the Eye of the Thunder, it was almost impossible for him to survive. There was no need to trigger the rare attribute!
In fact, the "electric shock" effect of the Eye of the Thunder was different when used on non-humanoid monsters. The bigger the monster, the smaller the effect.
Feng Luo had tried using the Eye of the Thunder on a Level-40 Mutant One-Horned Heavy Rhinoceros that weighed more than a ton. Under the condition of triggering electric shock damage, the Mutant Rhinoceros' movement was not affected at all. It still furiously sent a few Bladed Beetles flying!
"F * ck me. This kind of Rare Attribute sniper rifle with a control effect. If ten of them really aimed at me, I might really be kited to death!"
Big Pineapple, who was in the private room, stared at the auction stage and mumbled to himself.
Well, Feng Luo had forgotten that there was a guy with insane defense beside him.
However, Big Pineapple did not know that Feng Luo was the creator of the Eye of the Thunder. This was because players could choose to remain anonymous when creating equipment. This was the choice of some players who did not want to reveal their identity.
Feng Luo did not leave his ID on all the guns he brought up for sale.
"After saying so much, I'm sure everyone is already very interested."
"Then, in the first round, the auction for a total of ten standard-grade Eye of the Thunder will begin!"
"Ten standard-grade Eye of the Thunder, starting price 4 million credits. Each increment must not be less than 100,000 credits!"
"4.2 million!"
"4.5 million!"
"4.8 million!"
…
As soon as the male auctioneer finished speaking, the auction price displayed on everyone's screen had already risen!
"Brother Night, these Eye of the Thunder are quite valuable. The president said to let you auction 10 to 20 of them back. Also, the louder the auction, the better. That way, the outside world won't suspect that we're here for the Whisper of the Wind and the equipment! "
In the sixth luxurious private room, September Night Rain sat alone on the sofa with a gloomy expression as he watched the situation on the auction stage. A "little brother" beside him bent over and whispered to him.
"Hmph, got it!"
September Night Rain snorted coldly. He placed his finger on the designated spot on the screen and typed out a price using his voice.
"6.3 million!"
"Wow!"
The auction hall was filled with noise. The price was directly raised to 1.5 million credits. Moreover, the name of the auctioneer was actually displayed as September Night Rain (it could be displayed, or only the number could be used).
"September God!"
"September God!"
"September God, I love you!"
In the hall, the cheers of some fans could be heard again.
This made September Night Rain's expression slightly better, and he revealed a slight smile.
…
"What, are you still going to increase the price?"
In the tenth luxurious private room, Neutron Star turned around and asked Black Panther beside him.
"The attributes of this gun are indeed very suitable for me, and it can be used with my current sniper rifle. However, we don't need so many of them. The price has already been raised to this extent, so there's no need to continue bidding!
"Later, when the perfect-rated Eye of the Thunder is auctioned separately, I'll just buy one!"
Black Panther looked at Red Queen's expressionless face and turned around to speak.
…
"7.1 million credits. Congratulations, customer September Night Rain, for winning the opening equipment of this auction. Our staff will immediately send the equipment to your private room! "
A minute later, the 10 standard-grade Eye of the Thunder were bought by the September Guild at the price of 7.1 million credits.
Of course, the ID of September Night Rain, who had bought 10 Rare-grade sniper rifles in one go, was once again shouted by some people below.
Apart from that, this price naturally heated up the atmosphere of the auction, and the prices of the equipment continued to rise from the base price.
Of course, Feng Luo did not say anything to September Night Rain's strong support.
Feng Luo did not say anything. It was more important to make a fortune in silence!
…
"770,000, sold!"
"This Eye of the Soul premium Excellent necklace goes to customer number 10344!"
On the auction stage, the tall female host, whose face was almost flawless after the system's plastic surgery, said in a gentle voice.
On the virtual screen behind her, the status of a Level-50 necklace with a black eye engraved on it changed to "Sold!"
"Haha!"
In the second luxurious private room, Big Pineapple laughed loudly.
This was because this Rare-grade accessory was one of his spoils of war. Although it was Excellent grade, it was still comparable to premium Rare equipment. After all, Rare-grade accessories were too rare!
At that time, being able to sell it for 770,000 credits was also due to the large number of people paying attention to the auction.
It was important to know that apart from the 50,000 people present, there were also many people paying attention to the auction through terminals or forums. Any item with good attributes would have hundreds or even thousands of people participating in the bidding!
"Old Feng, War is really awesome!"
"In the games I used to play, even the most expensive equipment was only 20,000 to 30,000 Star Coins per piece. And among the equipment being auctioned today, just the equipment above one million credits is more than a third. "
"This game can totally make a fortune!"
Big Pineapple said emotionally.
All of this was not surprising. Normal virtual reality games could never compare to the realism of War.
The other biggest reason was that the Star Federation had forced everyone on the planet to have a War account. It was a monopolistic game that covered all citizens, and it was almost equivalent to a second reality.
How could the equipment in this game be compared to those in other virtual games!
Feng Luo was also very clear that premium Rare equipment and accessory sets worth more than one million, five million, or tens of millions of credits were not the end.
Because as the game updated, new equipment and games were continuously released, the economic impact of the Star Federation was getting bigger and bigger. The price of new equipment would definitely continue to increase!
Moreover, the Legendary equipment "Desert Crown" at the end of this auction was very likely to be auctioned off at a jaw-dropping sky-high price!
After all, someone was pushing it from behind the scenes.
…
"Next, the equipment for auction is a set of Light Armor Warrior armor!"
At that time, the tall female auctioneer on the stage had already continued the auction, and the big screen behind her also switched.
[SSG – Thunder (Level 50 Rare, five-piece set)!]
This was a set of Light Armor Warrior alloy armor that was slightly blue-black in color. The overall design was very light and had the style of ancient war armor, but it also had the flavor of individual soldier armor.
"The starting price is two million credits, each increment is no less than 100,000 credits!"
"2.5 million!"
Feng Luo sat up straight and made his first bid since the start of the auction.
