On September 1st, the Wanbao Auction that everyone had been looking forward to finally began.
It was past seven in the morning when Lin Huang knocked on Yi Zheng's door.
Soon, Yi Zheng opened the door and was stunned to see Lin Huang. He shook his head and said, "I'm not used to seeing you like this."
"I can't help it. To avoid unnecessary trouble, I can only use this identity in Division 3." Lin Huang shrugged. He had disguised himself as Lin Xie. "You'll get used to it eventually."
He had told Yi Zheng about his fake identity last night and showed him how he looked like after disguising himself. It was the second time that Yi Zheng had seen his face, but he was still not used to it.
"You're Lin Xie, right?" Yi Zheng confirmed again. Lin Huang had told him last night and he was worried that he might have remembered wrongly.
"Yes." Lin Huang nodded.
"Then, I'll call you Lin Xie from now on." To avoid making mistakes, Yi Zheng was going to change the way he addressed Lin Huang.
"I think you should get a disguise relic in the future. It'll be best if it's an ancient relic that can fool most imperial-levels." Lin Huang said all of a sudden, "The situation in Division 3 is complicated. There are many underground organizations and some footholds are chaotic. There's about half a year left until the end of the year. You'll definitely get into trouble. Sometimes, even if you don't want to, trouble will come to you. Having a disguise relic will help you avoid a lot of trouble. "
Yi Zheng was not weak and his social experience was comparable to Lin Huang's.
Lin Huang was not doubting his ability and social experience. Instead, he was worried that Yi Zheng did not realize how dangerous Division 3 was. One must know that a moment of carelessness could lead to fatal consequences, especially in a place like Division 3 that was chaotic.
"I know. Don't worry. I won't risk my life." Yi Zheng stopped smiling and said in all seriousness, "As for the disguise relic that you mentioned, I'll get one as soon as possible."
In fact, before meeting Lin Huang, Yi Zheng really did not take this experience too seriously. He thought that with his immortal-level combat strength, he would not encounter any danger. The effect of his training in the past six months might not even be as effective as training at home. However, after listening to Lin Huang talk about the situation in Division3, the distribution of the major forces, and some of the conflicts between the various forces, he suddenly felt as if he had entered a primitive forest. There were ferocious carnivorous monsters everywhere, and he could be devoured at any time.
The two of them chatted for a while before taking the elevator downstairs. By the time they finished their buffet breakfast on the first floor of the hotel, it was only half past seven. After exiting the hotel, the two strolled towards the auction venue. It didn't take long for them to arrive.
In the square in front of the venue, many street stalls had been set up. There were also many people strolling in front of the stalls. Most of them were here to participate in the auction.
The auction would start at 9 o 'clock, and entry would only be open at 8: 30. They still had to wait for about an hour. If they came early, they could only stroll around to kill time.
"Shall we walk around?" Yi Zheng turned his head and asked Lin Huang.
"There's nothing much to walk around. Let's just go in." Lin Huang walked straight to the entrance of the auction venue.
"We can only enter at 8: 30!" Yi Zheng looked at the two guards in suits at the entrance and immediately reminded Lin Huang through voice transmission. He could sense that the two of them were at least immortal-level rank-7 and above.
"I'm a member, so I can enter earlier." Lin Huang did not stop walking and continued walking towards the entrance of the auction venue.
Yi Zheng had no choice but to follow him.
When they arrived at the entrance, the two guards extended their arms and stopped them.
"The auction hasn't started yet. Only members and Supreme members can enter earlier. Please show me your membership card. "
Lin Huang projected the Supreme Member card that he had already bound. The guard on the left projected a beam of red light from his Emperor's Heart Ring and scanned it. Soon, a series of notifications were heard.
"Beep …"
"Approved."
"Identity: Supreme Member, allowed to bring up to three followers."
"A gold flame-level Supreme Member?"
The two guards looked at each other secretly and immediately stepped aside to let Lin Huang in. "Please come in."
Although Yi Zheng did not say anything, he looked at Lin Huang in a strange manner.
As soon as the two of them stepped into the auction hall, a tall waitress came up to them.
"Two distinguished guests, please follow me."
The waitress led the both of them to an enclosed elevator. "Please scan the sensor with your membership card."
Lin Huang projected his Super Member Card and scanned it on the elevator's sensing zone. A number lit up on top of the elevator all of a sudden — 3.
Soon after, the elevator began to move.
Lin Huang could clearly feel that the elevator began to move horizontally after moving up a certain distance in a straight line.
It didn't take long for the elevator to stop working and the door to open.
Lin Huang then noticed that the elevator seemed to have stopped in a room.
The waitress brought the both of them out of the door and into a hall.
"There are a total of eight VIP rooms on the third floor for the Supreme Member. We've assigned the rooms according to the order of arrival. There's already a guest in VIP room No. 1. This is VIP room No. 2. "
"Is this the living room?" Lin Huang looked at the beautifully decorated hall. The area was at least 500 square meters. It was like a small palace.
"Yes, the S-grade VIP rooms for the Supreme Member are designed with the highest standards. Each VIP room is more than 3,000 square meters. Besides the basic functions such as living room, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom, there's also a cultivation room, game hall, cinema, spa, swimming pool, balcony, and garden. Of course, most importantly, there's a grandstand that overlooks the entire auction hall. "
"The VIP rooms are built at such a high cost. Are they empty when there's no auction?" Lin Huang followed behind the waitress. The cost of the VIP rooms might have exceeded the price of an ancient relic.
"No, the VIP room is usually used as a hotel. Not only is this an auction hall, but it's also one of the three most luxurious hotels in Wanbao City. However, our S-grade VIP rooms aren't open to the public. Only members and Supreme Member are eligible to stay there. Non-members can only stay in A-grade VIP rooms. "
"Also, during the auction, all the VIP rooms won't accept any orders from the hotel. Only members and Supreme Member can use them for free. When there's no auction, even Supreme Member will have to pay to stay there. "
"For example, the guest in VIP room No. 1 arrived three days ago. He had to pay to stay there until last night. It's only free today. The other S-grade VIP rooms have guests too. Due to the auction, all of them checked out yesterday. "
"So, your hotel's business is quite good?" Lin Huang raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, it's not bad. The orders are now in until June next year."
"There are so many people in the S-grade VIP rooms?"
"The S-grade VIP rooms are in the queue until September next year. After all, there are not many rooms." The waitress smiled.
"I'm thinking if I should check out of the hotel that we're staying in now …" Lin Huang teased himself.
The waitress brought Lin Huang and Yi Zheng around the room. She spent almost 50 minutes introducing all the functions of the VIP room.
"Sir, if there's anything that you need, you can click on the bell-shaped button on the hotel's check-in page on your Emperor's Heart Ring. I'll arrange it for both of you. "The waitress left after telling them what to do.
"It's almost time to enter the venue. Let's go to the viewing platform." Lin Huang looked at the time. It was almost 8.30 a.m.
The viewing platform in the VIP room was almost 20 meters long. A layer of transparent artificial periosteum separated the VIP room from the auction hall like a gigantic curved transparent glass. .
Looking from the grandstand to the inside of the venue, it was as transparent as glass. However, looking from the inside of the venue to the VIP lounge, it was as if a huge black curtain had covered everything.
Both of them sat on the sofa in front of the viewing platform. Lin Huang opened a bottle of wine and poured some for himself and Yi Zheng.
"I've been wanting to ask since I walked in. What did you auction that gave you the super membership card of the Wanbao Auction?" Yi Zheng asked after he finished his glass of wine. "I've been wanting to ask since I walked in. What did you auction that gave you the super membership card of the Wanbao Auction?"
"To be honest, I've no idea what's the threshold to become a Supreme Member. However, I know that there are only two ways to become a regular member. One is to spend more than 100 million Life Crystals while the other is to auction items that are worth more than 500 million Life Crystals. In other words, even if you're selling ancient relics, you'll have to sell at least 10 of them. "
Yi Zheng paused and added, "Of course, it's okay if you don't want to tell me. I just want to satisfy my curiosity."
