"Let's see what they'll do to Candlelight."
While the several players who had been chased out of the Candlelight Trading Firm were feeling pleased with themselves, thinking that their actions would cause the Candlelight Trading Firm significant losses. However, after some time had passed, they suddenly discovered that the number of players entering the Candlelight Trading Firm had actually increased.
Moreover, many of these players were members of the various large Guilds.
There were even a large number of advanced carriages parked outside Candlelight's entrance.
"Hurry! Hurry! If we're any later, the items will be sold!"
The Guild players disembarking from the advanced carriages grew anxious, one after another.
"What's going on?" The several players who had been chased out also felt that something was amiss. However, they could not put their finger on it.
Seeing the members of the various large Guilds swarm into Candlelight like madmen, they wanted to enter the building to investigate. However, no matter how hard they tried, they could not take even half a step into Candlelight. All they could do was watch from the outside.
"Brother, do you know what's going on inside Candlelight?"
"I heard that a new item has appeared in Candlelight's first-floor hall. After my friend notified me, I immediately rushed over. The new item this time is called the Advanced Mana Armor Kit. I heard that its Attributes are far superior to the Intermediate Mana Armor Kit's. However, it is extremely rare to produce them. Hence, Candlelight intends to auction them off in a moment. If we can buy one, our prices will definitely multiply, just like the Intermediate Mana Armor Kit."
"Advanced Mana Armor Kit!"
The several players who had been chased out by Shifeng were dumbfounded.
Their mission was to monitor Candlelight's movements and cause trouble inside Candlelight.
Yet, just as they had been chased out of the building, Candlelight had begun selling the Advanced Mana Armor Kit. Yet, they had only found out about it so late.
The Intermediate Mana Armor Kit was famous throughout the Starmoon Kingdom and even the neighboring countries. However, due to the limited availability of the kits, very few players were able to obtain them. Only the Ling YI Society's Guild Points could purchase the kits. Moreover, only elite players could purchase one kit, while core players could purchase three kits.
Hence, the various large Guilds could only purchase the Intermediate Mana Armor Kits from the Ling YI Society's members at a high price. Meanwhile, only the Guild's peak experts were qualified to use the Intermediate Mana Armor Kits.
Now that the Ling YI Society was selling the Advanced Mana Armor Kits, this news would definitely shock the entire Starmoon Kingdom. It was no wonder why the various large Guilds desperately rushed to the Auction. Even large Guilds that had come from other kingdoms to grind abyssal monsters had swarmed into Candlelight.
Thinking up to this point, the few of them hurriedly contacted Blackwater's upper echelons, hoping that they would send someone to purchase the kits immediately. If they could make it in time for the auction, they might even be exempted from the Guild's punishment.
However, as soon as they started contacting Blackwater, they heard cries of surprise coming from inside Candlelight. Following which, a loud voice echoed throughout the street.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Candlelight! The auction for the Advanced Mana Armor Kits will now begin!"
Shortly after this voice ended, some of the players that had just arrived rushed into Candlelight, panting heavily, smiles appearing on their faces.
They had rushed over from the Teleportation Hall using advanced carriages. If they had arrived a moment later, they might not have been able to purchase the Advanced Mana Armor Kits.
The several Blackwater members that had been chased out of the building by the Shifeng were stupefied. With this situation, they had no way of explaining themselves to their superiors. Even if they had rushed over from White River City's Blackwater Trading Firm, it would have taken them at least ten minutes. By then, such an important auction would have ended.
As for mailing the Coins over, although they could barely make it in time, they could not enter Candlelight.
Meanwhile, inside Candlelight, many Guild members and independent players began to bid.
The starting bid for the Advanced Mana Armor Kits was set at 10 Gold. This was a price that no one had expected. After all, just the Intermediate Mana Armor Kits had sold for more than 10 Gold in secret, not to mention the Advanced Mana Armor Kit, which had even higher Attributes.
Everyone had already seen the Advanced Mana Armor Kits' Attributes, and they all coveted them.
As long as they collected three kits, they could increase their Basic Attributes by roughly 10%. Although this increase might not be much to Tier 1 players, once they reached Tier 2 and above, the difference would become massive.
When everyone thought about how the Advanced Mana Armor Kits could be used even after players reached Tier 4 or Tier 5, their gazes became even more fervent as they looked at the Advanced Mana Armor Kits.
This time, a total of ten kits would be auctioned, with only one being sold at a time. This situation caused the various large Guilds present to curse Candlelight inwardly.
A single Advanced Mana Armor Kit's effects were not particularly significant. If one wished to maximize the Advanced Mana Armor Kit's effects, they needed to collect three kits. In other words, if someone managed to collect two kits, they would have to buy the third kit regardless of the price. This situation would cause the competition to become even more intense.
Although the starting bid for each kit was 10 Gold, the price had already exceeded everyone's expectations.
"The Hundred Flowers Palace will take 50 Gold!" Cleansed Rue, who wore red and blue mage robes, shouted softly.
Immediately, everyone in the auction hall gasped when they turned to look at her.
This reaction was not only due to Cleansed Rue's peerless beauty, but also her astonishing bid.
With 50 Gold, one could purchase a piece of Level 35 Dark-Gold Equipment with acceptable Attributes.
At this moment, a stern-looking youth stepped forward and said, "Your Hundred Flowers Palace sure talks big. Isn't it just 50 Gold? The Secret Pavilion will bid 100 Gold!"
This youth was none other than the Secret Pavilion's genius newcomer, Cold Autumn. He had already reached Level 40. Moreover, he was fully geared in Level 40 Dark-Gold Equipment. Many of the Guild members present were astonished by his appearance.
"110 Gold," Cleansed Rue said unhurriedly.
She was determined to obtain the Advanced Mana Armor Kit. If the Ling YI Society had placed the Advanced Mana Armor Kit in this auction, the Hundred Flowers Palace might not have had much of a chance. However, this auction was too sudden. Many Guilds had not made it in time. Fortunately, she was preparing to purchase a plot of Land in White River City for a Guild Residence. Hence, she had plenty of Gold Coins on hand. She could definitely challenge the Secret Pavilion.
However, Cold Autumn had no intention of giving up. He continued to shout out bids.
A short moment later, the price of the Advanced Mana Armor Kit had risen to 150 Gold, causing everyone to give up on bidding.
Although the Advanced Mana Armor Kit was a good item, collecting three kits would only increase one's Attributes by 10%. Spending so much money was not worth it.
"I bid 200 Gold!"
Just as everyone was about to bid for the Advanced Mana Armor Kit, a woman in green mage robes extended her hand and gestured.
