(Oh, sorry, I have to make a patch. Sheyan's current achievement points should be 241 points, so his promotion to Colonel will increase his achievement points to 350 points. Ah-Tu is very sorry for the inconvenience. Please forgive me.)
Sheyan doubled the price when the rest of the contestants had just bid 10,000 utility points!
After all, not everyone had a good item like the 'Planetary-Grade High-Energy Mechanical Power Gloves'. The Growth-Hunters who owned mechs would shrink back in the face of this price, because the Miner had enthusiastically told Sheyan just now that there were three ways to recharge a mech. The first way was electricity, the second way was energy crystals, and the last way was batteries.
For mechs, energy crystals were the most preferred way to recharge. It was clean, environmentally friendly, simple and fast, and the energy contained in the crystals could be quite huge. It was enough to support the mech for a long time.
Electricity was the easiest to find and the most common way to recharge, but it also took the most time. It often took more than ten hours to recharge a mech, and it could only be found in a civilized world. It could not be recharged in a world similar to the Lord of the Rings.
High-energy batteries were used as an emergency measure at the most critical time.
For mecha pilots under normal circumstances, the purpose of buying high-energy batteries was to save themselves in an emergency. If the price was too high, then they might as well spend more money to buy energy crystals.
Therefore, Sheyan's 20,000 utility points immediately stunned the audience. The rest of the people immediately speculated that he was definitely not a mech-type contestant. He probably had some special equipment on him, which was why he needed this battery.
But just as the deal was about to be closed, someone suddenly bid 25,000 utility points, raising the price by another 5,000 utility points. Sheyan frowned and gave up on the idea. The miner looked at Sheyan in surprise and exclaimed, "That's right.
"Why did you give up?"
Sheyan shrugged his shoulders and replied.
"If I'm not mistaken, the bidder should be the seller. This guy is too greedy. Let the batteries rot in his hands."
Sheyan was not determined to get this pair of batteries. After all, he also had other ways to recharge the gloves. It was just that the batteries were more cost-effective and affordable. If he were to purchase it for 25,000 utility points, the conversion cost would be higher than purchasing the equipment decomposed. Naturally, it was not worth that price.
Speaking of this, Sheyan suddenly remembered something. He still had a few things on him that he didn't know the use of: Soul Crystals x2, High Energy Crystals x1. After listening to the Miner's description, he suddenly remembered that these three things could be used to recharge mechs. So, he took them out for the Miner to take a look.
The Miner immediately confirmed that the Soul Crystal from the Avatar World was rich with powerful Soul Energy. It could be considered a medium-high grade Rechargeable Crystal and should be very popular. However, the High Energy Crystal from the Starship Troopers was a precious item. Its main purpose was to be gifted to humans to increase their friendliness. Since he had brought it out of the world, he could just go straight to the shop and not waste any time.
After confirming that Sheyan had the intention to auction, the miner immediately contacted the auction house. A drawer-like thing popped up on the table in front of Sheyan. After putting the soul crystal inside, the auction process began.
Of course, Sheyan still had to pay 5,000 utility points. No matter whether the item was sold or not, the money would not be refunded.
The Miner then told Sheyan that after the auction was over, there would be a "hodgepodge" clearance of the remaining goods. If the previous two high-energy NiMH nuclear batteries were bought by the seller after failing to raise the price, they would definitely appear in the hall that was being cleared, so there was no need to be anxious. There was still a chance to get them.
The next few rounds of the auction were all auctioned off several items at once. The items sold were all targeted items, such as unknown mysterious items, and so on.
In particular, the auction of unknown mysterious items was quite popular. Many people raised their placards. After all, these were high-end value-preserving goods and hard currency. After all, they would not lose everything after getting their hands on them.
But how many achievement points these unknown mysterious items could be exchanged for in the Realm would be a test of one's eyesight. After all, unknown mysterious items were things that the Realm did not have any relevant information about, so their rarity could be imagined. Therefore, bidding for unknown mysterious items was a very effective way to adjust the auction.
The next item that caused another round of commotion was a dark gold shield!
The whole venue went into an uproar again. Sheyan originally thought that dark gold shields were rare only in his own Realm, but now it seemed that dark gold shields were also in short supply in all the Nightmare Realms. It could be said that a dark gold shield on one's back was a symbol of the status of a top MT.
The dark gold shield was called 'Duel's Vow'. In addition to providing an extremely high defence and HP bonus, it also had an active ability called 'Death or Life'.
Reef's dark gold shield was an AOE elemental attack with a blinding effect. The active ability of this shield was a one-on-one use, a bit similar to Sheyan's' Hornrage '. After activation, the user would run at a terrifying speed and collide with the opponent. The damage dealt was 35% of the wielder's HP + defence x4. The enemy would also be sent flying ten meters away and be paralysed for five seconds.
Although the dark gold shield did not cause a huge commotion like the Sorcerer's Stone, it still triggered a bidding frenzy. The final price was 530,000 utility points and a piece of dark gold equipment.
Next, the two soul crystals provided by Sheyan were auctioned together with a lot of miscellaneous items and unknown mysterious items.
To Sheyan's surprise, there were eight people bidding for the soul crystals at first. There were probably some speculators among them. But gradually, the speculators were cleared out like sand being washed away by waves, triggering a bidding war between three people who seemed to really want the soul crystals. The bidding price soared all the way.
By the time only three people were left, the bidding price had soared to a high price of 100,000 utility points for two soul crystals.
One of the bidders, who seemed to be a reserve-duty Lieutenant General, was the first to speak coldly.
"My next world is the world of Narnia. If my baby runs out of energy in that damn place, it's almost the same as drawing an end to my life. So, I'm determined to get these two soul crystals. If you don't believe me, you can continue to bid for them."
In an auction house, direct physical threats were often useless. Apart from the possibility of meeting each other on the battlefield, the chances of them meeting each other in the same place were very small. Moreover, their identities and faces were hidden from each other.
However, the reserve-duty Lieutenant General seemed to be determined to get the soul crystals when he bid. He actually increased the price by 30,000 utility points. His imposing manner repelled one of the bidders. When the price soared to 160,000 utility points, another bidder quit.
The miner smiled at Sheyan.
"Congratulations, Lieutenant Colonel. Even if you sell these two soul crystals to someone who needs them, the actual price shouldn't exceed 100,000 utility points. You've already made a 60% premium. That's a huge profit."
Sheyan smiled. He did not expect such an unexpected windfall, but after seeing the millions spent on the Sorcerer's Stone, this could no longer make him feel too surprised.
While they were chatting, the bidding price of the two soul crystals had reached the threshold of 200,000 utility points. In the end, the reserve-duty Lieutenant General had the last laugh. He bought the two soul crystals at the price of 210,000 utility points. The reserve-duty Lieutenant General was regretfully defeated.
The organizer obviously did not expect the two soul crystals, whose actual price was 100,000 utility points, to be sold at a 100% premium. This was a big surprise in this auction!
For example, although the actual price of the Sorcerer's Stone was more than 2.5 million utility points, it was originally an intermediate legendary item. It was very expensive and valuable, so its actual price was worth this price! If the price of the Sorcerer's Stone was 100% premium, the final price would be at least 6 million utility points.
"I wonder what the finale will be," said Sheyan as he looked at the rapidly increasing number of utility points. Sheyan looked at the rapidly increasing number of utility points. By now, it was almost 400,000. He was in a good mood and could not help but say with great interest, "Even the Philosopher's Stone is used to support the awkward silence in the middle of the auction. How exciting."
The miner smiled.
"It should be soon. It's a pity that you're too late, Lieutenant Colonel. There might be something you need among the first hundreds of auction items."
While the two were chatting and laughing, the next auction item was placed on the stage. Although it was covered with a layer of velvet cloth, it was already emitting a faint dark golden glow! Sheyan wondered if this was another dark-gold grade shield. At this time, the host's excited voice could be heard.
"Attention, gunmen friends. The next item to appear is a weapon that only exists in legends! It will be your most loyal comrade! "
As soon as Sheyan heard the words "Gunner beware", he felt a little dispirited. Mogensha was not around, so what was there to ask for?
However, the moment the cloth was lifted, a dark golden brilliance gushed out, as though it was going to dazzle everyone's eyes. That faintly familiar silhouette of this weapon, had already caused Sheyan's heart to feel as though it had been struck heavily. When Sheyan clearly saw the name engraved on the weapon, even his breathing became absent-minded!
When Sheyan least expected it, the weapon he had been longing for for a long time had appeared proudly in front of him in such a way!!! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
