"Is the last item to be auctioned a god relic?"
"The last demigod sword relic has already been auctioned off. Don't tell me the last item is a god item?"
The last item to be auctioned off was finally brought to the auction stage.
"Now, the last item for today, and also the last item for this auction, is here." Yu Bo was not in a hurry to reveal the red veil. "Do you guys want to know what this mysterious item is?"
"Stop wasting time. Reveal it now!"
"Hurry up. I want to go home and feed my baby!" A hunk with chest hair shouted, showing off his pecs to Yu Bo.
"Hurry up. I need to pee. I can't hold it anymore! Hurry up so I can go to the toilet! "
…
Everyone was shouting. Many of them had forgotten that the young man who seemed to be smiling was actually an immortal-level rank-9 powerhouse of unknown age. He was only one step away from imperial-level.
"I feel like beating someone up …"
Yu Bo did not expect such a reaction from the crowd. He was expecting them to shout "yes!" in unison like elementary school students in class. It turned out that the adult world was much more complicated.
Soon, he adjusted himself and tore off the last piece of red veil, revealing the battle armor that Lin Huang had auctioned off.
The pitch-black armor floated in the transparent display case, emitting a faint black mist. The helmet's eye sockets lit up with two blood-red lights. It was like a humanoid armored monster floating on the auction stage, using its eyes to examine everyone in the room.
The entire hall fell silent as soon as the battle armor appeared.
Many of them froze when they saw the bloody glow. They had goosebumps as if they were being stared at by a powerful monster that they could not defeat.
Yu Bo smirked as he had expected that to happen.
Even with his immortal-level rank-9 combat strength, he was shocked when he saw the item for the first time. He had goosebumps all over his body.
Moreover, most of the people in the hall were not on immortal-level. It was normal for them to be scared by the appearance and aura of the battle armor.
"This demigod battle armor relic is the only demigod battle armor relic that we're auctioning off. According to the three Grade-S appraisers, the demigod relic was not modified from an ancient relic nor was it made from demigod-level monster flesh. Instead, it was naturally dropped by a demigod-level monster after its death. The type of monster that dropped the armor was unknown, but it was certain that it was an Abyssal creature. It was highly likely that it was a demigod monster from the third layer of the Abyss Brink. The armor is 100% intact, and there are no signs of damage … "
"The starting price of the armor is 38 billion Life Crystals! Each increment must be no less than one billion Life Crystals! "
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, the black screen in the VIP room on the third floor suddenly lit up.
"68 billion!"
The one who made the bid was VIP Room 3. He increased the price by 30 billion in one go. It was obvious that he was determined to get this set of armor.
Seeing this price, the hall was filled with exclamations.
"Did this big shot press an extra zero when he increased the price?"
"I'm sure he didn't press the wrong button. This is an auction strategy. He increased the bid by 30 billion in one go, not giving others a chance to bid."
"The big shot in VIP room S3 is quite fierce!"
"Sixty-eight billion. For a real big shot, it's probably just an average amount."
…
Even the auctioneer, Yu Bo, was stunned. He almost thought that he had seen the wrong number.
Before Yu Bo could bid, another black screen lit up some distance away.
"75 billion!"
The one who made the bid was VIP Room 5 who did not participate in the bidding for the previous two demigod relics.
"Is it going to be sold at a sky-high price?!"
"Will it go up to 80 billion? I heard that there hasn't been an item that exceeds 80 billion in the past 30 years at the Wanbao Auction. "
Yu Bo's heart was pounding. He was hoping that someone would continue to bid and exceed 80 billion.
In the past 30 years, the highest price was 78 billion, which was auctioned 13 years ago.
If he could break the record, he would definitely be rewarded by the upper management. He might even have the opportunity to level up to imperial-level.
Yu Bo calmed himself down. Just when he was about to say something to provoke the other buyers, another number appeared on the black screen on the third floor again.
"85 billion!"
The one who made the bid this time was VIP Room 3.
Yu Bo was overjoyed to see the number. "I broke the record!!!"
But in the next second, VIP room number five made another bid, pushing the auction price to a new high.
"95 billion!"
Everyone in the venue felt that the people in the two VIP rooms on the third floor had gone crazy.
"What's going on? It's almost reaching 100 billion! "
"95 billion. This number should be a huge sum for those big shots on the third floor."
"I always thought that I would be happy with money, but now I know that I can't even imagine the happiness of the rich …"
As the auctioneer, when Yu Bo saw the bid of 95 billion, his breathing became a little disordered. Originally, he was only thinking about whether or not he could break the 30-year record, but now his offer had already broken the 50-year record.
Yu Bo calmed himself down a little and was about to say something.
The darkness on the third floor suddenly lit up again.
"120 billion!"
This dazzling number suddenly lit up on the black screen of VIP Room 1, causing everyone present to exclaim in surprise.
No one had expected that after VIP Room 3 and 5 fought for so long, VIP Room 1 would directly open fire and blast the other two competitors into smithereens.
"One … 120 billion …" Yu Bo mumbled in a daze when he saw the bid.
However, he soon snapped back to his senses and quickly searched his brain for the last time the final price exceeded 120 billion.
"I think there was a demigod relic that was auctioned at 130 billion 117 years ago. The highest price that was auctioned was 130 billion. The highest price that was auctioned in the past 100 years was a demigod relic that was auctioned at 110 billion back then. Does this mean that the auction price this time has broken the 100-year record?! "
Yu Bo could almost imagine his position in the Wanbao Auction in the future. "If I'm not mistaken, the position of the chief auctioneer is already in my bag."
As soon as the bid of 120 billion was announced, the rest of the VIP rooms on the third floor fell into silence.
Yu Bo knew that the price should have reached its limit, but he was still ambitious and hoped to push it further.
"The guest in VIP Room S1 has bid 120 billion. This is the highest price that our auction house has ever offered in the past 100 years. Congratulations to the guest in VIP Room S1 for breaking our auction house's 100-year record! "
"Let me add a few more words about this collectible."
"Many of you know that the equipment dropped by the monsters can be refined again. In reality, the same goes for the demigod relic. This item is only a mid-grade demigod relic. However, to the refiners, it's an unpolished raw material. There's a certain chance that it can be upgraded to an advanced-grade item by refining it again. In the entire Division 3, there are only three advanced-grade demigod battle armors that everyone knows about. The one that you're looking at might be the fourth one. "
Yu Bo had prepared to say that since the beginning, but he never had the chance to say it. Now, he finally said it.
Many people at the scene finally understood why the price of this armor was so much higher than the previous two weapons.
Many of them thought that the Supreme members on the third floor were bidding crazily for the battle armor. Now, it seemed like they were bidding for the potential value of the battle armor. They were all smart people.
Even Yi Zheng came to a realization. He turned his head to look at Lin Huang and asked, "Are there different grades of demigod relics?"
"Yes, but it's not that obvious." Lin Huang nodded and explained in detail, "The demigod relics are divided into low-grade, intermediate-grade, advanced-grade, and supreme-grade. There's not much difference between low-grade and intermediate-grade ones. The advanced-grade ones are much more powerful. As for supreme-grade ones, some of them are as powerful as a god relic. However, they don't have the consciousness of a god relic.
"Judging from the price, a low-grade demigod relic can usually be sold at 10 to 30 billion Life Crystals. Some of them can go up to 40 billion, but the highest price won't exceed 50 billion. Middle-grade demigod relics start at 30 billion Life Crystals. They're usually sold at 30 to 80 billion. If it's not a special case, the highest price won't exceed 100 billion. An advanced-grade demigod relic starts at 100 billion. The highest price it can go up to 300 to 400 billion. It won't exceed 500 billion. The supreme-grade demigod relic starts at 300 billion … "
On the auction stage, Yu Bo waited for a few seconds. Nobody was bidding, so he had no choice but to bid.
"120 billion going once!"
"120 billion going twice!"
"Are there any more bids? If not, the battle armor will belong to the guest in VIP room S1. "
Clearly, the price of 120 billion had reached the bottom line that the few guests on the third floor could afford. They knew that it was meaningless to increase the price by a small amount. It would be a loss if they increased the price by a large amount, so they decided to give up.
Yu Bo glanced through the VIP rooms on the third floor. He knew that nobody would bid anymore, so he swung the hammer.
