Due to the time limit, each of the cyborgs was different. The auctioneer could only give a simple summary of each of them.
At the same time, the auctioneer projected the detailed information of each cyborg on the screen behind the stage.
It was obvious from the projected information that the cyborgs were quite different from each other.
Some excelled in Sword Dao, some in Sword Dao, some in close-range combat, and some even had telekinesis …
"Their abilities are equivalent to double mutated monsters. They have five basic skills and they're similar to custom-made summoning beasts in human form. The price is almost the same as buying an immortal-level rank-9 summoning beast. " Lin Huang raised his brow after reading the information. "However, they're better than summoning beasts since they can acquire new skills through learning. It's more cost-effective than buying summoning beasts, but it looks awkward. "
Lin Huang was not interested in such cyborgs. He had more than ten summoning beasts with more powerful potential, so there was no need for him to buy more cyborgs. Moreover, such living creatures could not be turned into cards directly. Therefore, they could not be strengthened like Bai and the rest. If they could be turned into cards, he would not mind buying one to train them further.
However, Lin Huang had no idea if the cyborgs should be categorized as humans or monsters. If they were humans, he would not get a Monster Card from killing them. The most he would get was a Skill Card. If they were monsters, the probability of getting a Monster Card was low even if he killed all 20 of them on the stage.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Lin Huang decided not to participate in the auction.
"Lend me some if I don't have enough money later," Yi Zheng, who was standing aside, said through voice transmission all of a sudden.
"Sure." Lin Huang nodded right away. He did not lack money, so he was not afraid that Yi Zheng would not pay him back.
On the stage, the cyborgs were sold one after another.
When the sixth cyborg was sold, Yi Zheng, who was standing next to Lin Huang, shouted a bid all of a sudden.
"150 million!"
Lin Huang was stunned to hear that. He turned his head and asked, "Why do you want them?"
"I'm buying them for the military to study," Yi Zheng said through voice transmission, "If it's possible, I'd like to buy three of them. One for a spear cultivator, one for a sword cultivator, and one for a close-range combat. "
"Alright, let me know if you don't have enough money." Lin Huang nodded.
Yi Zheng, who was born in an aristocratic family in the military, actually held a position in the military. However, he was too young, so his current position was just an idle one without any real power.
The main reason he came to Division 3 to train was to add color to his experience. It was just like how most of the Ph.D. students on Earth needed to go abroad to get gilded.
Although Yi Zheng's development direction in the Army had nothing to do with scientific research, it would still be a military merit for him if he could bring the Androids back. Moreover, the military would definitely reimburse the cost of the purchase.
After an intense battle, Yi Zheng bought the sword cultivator cyborg for 270 million.
After that, he bought a Spear Cultivator for 230 million and a Close Combat Physique Cultivator for 240 million.
Yi Zheng had spent more than half of the 1.5 billion Life Crystals that he had earned with Lin Huang and the rest in the ruins to buy the three cyborgs.
"I wonder why he's buying so many male Androids. They're all muscular." A man in a red mask mumbled behind Lin Huang and Yi Zheng. He looked at Yi Zheng strangely under the mask.
"I'd like to buy a female one too, but I don't have one …" Yi Zheng forced a smile.
Most of the people who participated in the auction only bought one while a minority of them bought two. Yi Zheng bought the most and coincidentally, he bought the three most muscular ones. However, Yi Zheng was looking at the three's occupations, initial skills, and test reports when he participated in the bidding. He did not pay attention to the appearance and build of the few Androids at all.
In reality, most of the people who saw the batch of Androids were looking forward to a female one just like the man in the red mask. However, according to the information provided by the auction house, the female Androids' technology was not perfected at the moment. Therefore, they were not put into the trial production. If the technical issues were solved, they might be available next year.
Soon, all 20 Androids were sold. The auctioneer in a rabbit's ear mask brought out the second item.
Ten two-meter-tall cabinets were pushed onto the auction stage by the staff.
After the red cloth was removed, there were ten metal cages with a lady locked in each of them. The ten ladies were naked and looked just like humans. However, their breasts were much bigger than ordinary ladies.
"Busty ladies …" Lin Huang frowned. It was not his first time seeing busty ladies at an auction. The last time he saw them was at the Mystery Auction with Leng Yuexin.
The busty ladies were not humans but mutants that were hybridized between humans and busty beasts.
However, such mutants were almost extinct 800 years ago. Even if there were descendants of the Blood of Sin, it was impossible for there to be ten of them at once.
These ten busty women were obviously created by using genetic technology to create genetic modification drugs, using living human female bodies to modify them. During this process, countless women had died, and only these ten finished products were created.
"The Wanbao Auction and the Mystery Auction must be related." Lin Huang did not think about that when the Androids were being auctioned earlier. However, after seeing the busty ladies, he roughly guessed that the two auction houses must have the same source of supply. They might even have the same boss behind them.
Soon, the auction of the busty ladies was even more popular than before.
Clearly, the Wanbao Auction had set the order of the auction on purpose. They would auction the male Androids first to arouse people's anticipation for the female Androids. Although there were no female Androids, they had the busty ladies to replace them.
Although Lin Huang pitied the ladies, he did not participate in the bidding. Yi Zheng, who was next to him, did not bid either.
That was because there was no point in buying them. As long as there was a continuous supply of such mutants, there would always be busty ladies and other mutants being sold at various auction houses.
Thinking about the mutants' situation, Lin Huang could not help but think of Xiao Mo whom he had met at the Purple Crow Training Camp. That kid was also a mutant.
Although there was nothing different about him that made him different from a human, the mark of the Blood of Sin had always been on him. To him, it was a mark of shame for the rest of his life.
"I wonder how Xiao Mo is doing now …"
Soon, the ten busty ladies were auctioned off to the crowd's enthusiasm.
In the third round of auction, a batch of combat-type mutants were auctioned off.
Looking at the three consecutive batches of items, Lin Huang fell into deep thought.
"There must be an organization that specializes in genetic modification behind the Wanbao Auction. They're capturing humans illegally and producing these mutants in batches. Even the Androids might be related to this organization. If they dare to do that in the Coalition government's territory, I'm afraid the Coalition government isn't clean either … "
As he thought about this, Lin Huang recalled how a group of demigods had planned to kill Mr. Fu in order to obtain the secret to becoming a Virtual God. He frowned even harder.
