Ouyang Shuo was not the only one who had ambitions for the [Teleport Token].
All the Lords who wanted to expand their territory, especially those who wanted to expand their territory, had ambitions for the [Teleport Token]. For example, William, Caesar, and Jack.
The fourth system update had greatly increased the basic marching speed of the army. The Lords who were still fighting in their country were not willing to join in as they could not reach it.
Hence, when the price was pushed to 900,000 gold coins, only Ouyang Shuo and the other three were left to compete.
"One million gold coins!"
Ouyang Shuo quoted a critical price.
No matter how good the [Teleport Token] was, it was not worth it for the Lord to spend so much money. After all, it was only the third auction item.
"One million and one hundred thousand gold coins!"
Caesar was the one who made the bid. He turned his head and gave Ouyang Shuo a provocative look. Seeing this, William and Jack simply gave up on competing and let the two of them fight alone.
Ouyang Shuo ignored Caesar's provocation and said calmly, "One million and three hundred thousand gold coins!"
"…"
Caesar's expression became sluggish. He originally wanted to trick Wei Yue Wuyi, but looking at Wei Yue Wuyi's current expression, Caesar was unable to determine whether Wei Yue Wuyi really wanted this command token or was also setting up a trap to trick him.
If he continued to bid, Wu Yue would be in big trouble. If he did not bid, he would be in big trouble.
Caesar thought for a while, but in the end, he did not make another bid. Caesar was not impulsive. He would not waste his precious funds because of a fight.
Hence, Ouyang Shuo won the [Teleport Token] with a price of one million and three hundred thousand gold coins. From the beginning to the end, his expression did not change at all.
Caesar, who was far away, frowned when he saw this.
"Did I cheat him?" Caesar was conflicted.
…
The next three auction items were treasures suitable for adventuring players. There were rare artifacts, hidden occupation transfer scrolls, and powerful cultivation techniques.
Ouyang Shuo turned a blind eye to all of this and sat quietly to watch the show.
On the other hand, the adventuring players, especially the group of western players, fought fiercely for the artifact staff. In the end, a sky-high price of one million and eight hundred thousand gold coins was set.
After the three auction items were auctioned, an hour had passed.
The pace of the entire auction was very fast, there was no pause in the middle, one item after another.
The seventh item was a custom-made item for the China server — the Kunlun Dungeon Key. With this key, players could directly access the Kunlun Dungeon.
"Kunlun" was set at the end of the Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty. It told the story of the protagonist Liang Xiao's legendary experience of growing from a vagabond to a great hero. It was hailed as a classic of the new school of martial arts in the 21st century.
With millions of words, the novel unfolded a magnificent picture of Jianghu to the readers. The plot was full of ups and downs, the characters were distinct, and the whole story was full of references. The content included many elements such as Jianghu chivalry, love and hate, family, country, and the world. It involved astronomy, geography, mechanisms, mathematics, military deployment, and many other aspects. It could be called a masterpiece of the new martial arts novel.
The China server released the "Martial World's Winds and Waves" expansion pack. Other countries also released similar expansion packs, but the setting was no longer Wuxia. Instead, it was a cultivation system with local characteristics.
Of course, the China server still had the most adventure dungeons. After all, China's cultural heritage far exceeded that of other countries. Gaia had no choice but to be biased.
The competition for the seventh item was limited to Xie Siyun and Blood Romance.
"Eight hundred thousand gold coins!"
After saying so, he turned to look at Xie Siyun. Smiling, he said, "This is the last time I'll make this offer." The two of them could be considered half-allies, or at least partners. Blood Romance didn't want to push things too far.
Moreover, Blood Romance had already bought the map, so she had limited funds.
Xie Siyun hesitated for a moment, then finally bid eight hundred and fifty thousand gold coins, successfully winning the key.
This was a global event, so it wasn't suitable for the two of them to fight too fiercely. Moreover, this was only a key. It was still unknown what kind of fortuitous encounter it would bring.
Xie Siyun's previous hesitation was because she received Ouyang Shuo's message.
Considering Song Jia's wishes, Ouyang Shuo proposed to Xie Siyun that he was willing to use two hundred thousand gold coins in exchange for Song Jia's right to enter Kunlun.
Kunlun was a level 5 dungeon, so Ouyang Shuo's two hundred thousand gold coins was already very generous.
This was a win-win situation, so Xie Siyun naturally wouldn't refuse.
Even if Ouyang Shuo didn't pay this sum, considering their relationship, Xie Siyun would also agree to Song Jia's participation. It was just that she wouldn't be able to explain it to the guild members.
In this regard, Ouyang Shuo was very considerate.
… …
After the dust settled, the auctioneer began to introduce the eighth item. "Magic Seal Scroll. Upon activation, it can stop all teleportation arrays within a thousand li from functioning for a day. The starting price is 500000 gold coins. There is no fixed price. Please make your bids. "
Di Chen and Lord Chunshen's expressions suddenly tightened. They pretended to casually glance at Ouyang Shuo.
Ouyang Shuo smiled inwardly. He knew what Di Chen and the others were worried about. If it was before the Battle of Yunnan, Ouyang Shuo would definitely have bought this scroll. However, now, it was no longer useful.
If he really bought it, it would have the opposite effect and affect Bai Qi's' black chess' plan.
Seeing the expressions of Di Chen and the others, Ouyang Shuo was even more certain that the [Yan Huang Alliance] was planning some sort of teleportation array. Therefore, he was afraid that Shanhai City would use the Magic Seal Scroll to ruin their plans.
However, even if he didn't buy it, he still had to perform when it was time to perform.
Ouyang Shuo slightly smiled, and took the lead to bid. "600,000 gold coins!"
Ouyang Shuo wasn't the only one who was interested in the Magic Seal Scroll. Even in the game, a thousand li radius was almost the size of a small country.
If used properly, it could decide the outcome of a battle.
"700,000 gold coins!"
"800,000 gold coins!"
… …
"1,000,000 gold coins!"
The price of the item soared, and Ouyang Shuo made another bid.
"1,200,000 gold coins!"
The one who made the bid was the leader of the Russian region, Pushkin. It was his first time making a bid.
Once he made a bid, it was already extraordinary.
Anyone who knew Pushkin knew that the Pushkin family was a huge crocodile in reality. They dominated both the political and business worlds, and were indeed a ruthless character.
Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo pretended to be regretful and gave up bidding.
Seeing this, Di Chen and Lord Chunshen secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Just like the China region, Russia was also vast. Pushkin probably had many competitors in the country, so it was no wonder that he was so interested in the Magic Seal Scroll.
The other leaders of the European region, including William, Henry and Kaiser, did not make a bid at all. This was because they had already established themselves as the overlords of their respective countries, and no one could shake them.
In the end, the Magic Seal Scroll fell into Pushkin's hands.
… …
The auction was nearing its end, and there were only two items left.
Ouyang Shuo was also a little disappointed. He had 4 million gold coins, but had only spent 1.5 million, and did not see anything that caught his eye. Hopefully, the last two items would give him a pleasant surprise.
The ninth item was a red and white ball, and it was only the size of a fist.
"[Territory Lucky Beast]. After using it, one can summon a young territory lucky beast. The starting price is 500000 gold coins, and there is no fixed price. Everyone, please bid. "
"What's a lucky beast?"
The leaders were confused. They knew about guardian beasts, but they knew nothing about lucky beasts.
"Could it be a mascot?"
The leaders looked at each other. Who would be stupid enough to spend hundreds of thousands of gold coins on a mascot?
But according to Gaia's nature, it would definitely not put up any useless items in this kind of auction. The only possibility was that this lucky beast had some special ability.
When Ouyang Shuo heard this, he felt an indescribable excitement in his heart. He did not know nothing about the lucky beast. The most well-known ability of the lucky beast was that it could bring luck to its territory.
Just this ability alone was extraordinary.
Even so, Ouyang Shuo did not make a sound, and allowed the other leaders to test the waters with their bids.
"550,000 gold coins!"
"600,000 gold coins!"
… …
"700,000 gold coins!"
"750,000 gold coins!"
… …
This was the item with the slowest rise in price.
"800,000 gold coins!"
Ouyang Shuo made his first bid.
Instantly, it attracted the attention of the other leaders.
"Do you know what special ability the lucky beast has?" Henry turned to ask Ouyang Shuo.
Ouyang Shuo obviously would not tell the truth. He said with a smile, "This is the first time I've heard of a lucky beast. Gaia's products are definitely exquisite. I'd rather buy the wrong item than let it go. "
"Rich god!" Henry gave a thumbs up and decisively withdrew from this round of bidding.
After a few more rounds, the price finally rose to a million gold coins. During this period, even Lord Chunshen and Di Chen joined in.
Although Di Chen did not have a good impression of Ouyang Shuo, he was impressed by Ouyang Shuo's foresight.
"1.3 million gold coins!"
Ouyang Shuo made another bid, scaring off many competitors.
Although everyone present was considered a tycoon, people like Ouyang Shuo might not be able to spend more than a million gold coins just for something that might be good.
Perhaps this was the difference between a tycoon and a rich god.
"1.4 million gold coins!"
Di Chen gave up, but Lord Chunshen gritted his teeth and followed up with another round of bidding.
When Ouyang Shuo saw this, he gave Lord Chunshen an indifferent glance and said, "1.5 million gold coins. This is also my last round of bidding. If you want to follow, it's yours. "
Lord Chunshen's expression turned sluggish as he said bitterly, "I'm not stupid."
"Then thank you very much." Ouyang Shuo smiled slightly.
In that instant, Lord Chunshen felt some regret. He wanted to go back on his words and bid again. At the crucial moment, Di Chen stopped Lord Chunshen and whispered, "Don't fall for his trick."
Di Chen also wanted to see Lord Chunshen make a fool of himself, but not at such an occasion.
Lord Chunshen was alarmed. He looked gratefully at Di Chen, but he did not bid again. Finally, Ouyang Shuo successfully won the [Territory Lucky Beast] with a price of 1.5 million.
At this point, there was only one last item left in the auction.
