Reflected Years was furious, the black representative was furious, and so was Muyun's representative.
Coincidentally, the leaders of the three guilds agreed to give them 10,000 gold coins for the time being. Everyone had the same idea. There were a thousand people in the guild, so 10 gold coins for each person wasn't a big deal. Now that the bid was only 1,000 gold coins, there was a lot of room for the upper limit of 10,000 gold coins. During this time, the guilds could negotiate and gather more people. The best result would be to end the battle within 10,000 gold coins.
In the end, as soon as the three of them reached the upper limit and regained their confidence, the Han Family's young master, who they didn't see as a competitor at all, casually walked by and called out the price to ten thousand.
The three of them were dumbfounded. They looked at each other, at each other, and then at him.
Xi Xiaotian didn't care. He knocked Yun Xiang, who was beside him. "Time it!"
Yun Xiang was also stunned. She hurriedly did what Reflected Years had asked her to do and started to time. In order to create a sense of pressure, the countdown method was still used: "30, 29, 28, 27 …" Yun Xiang counted seriously.
"No, not this time." Reflected Years seemed to have woken up from a dream and suddenly shouted.
The black representative and Muyun's representative also reacted and shouted at the same time. Their voices were even louder than Reflected Years'. The three of them suddenly united because they had a common opponent: the troublemaker, unreliable, and spy-like Han Family Young Master.
"What requests do the three of you have?" Xi Xiaotian said with a smile.
"Han Family Young Master, don't go, come back!!!" Reflected Years roared. After this Han Family Young Master called out 10,000 gold coins, he wandered around as if nothing had happened. Was this an auction or a stroll in the park?
Would the Han Family Young Master listen to him? He just tilted his head, gave him a look, and left.
Fortunately, the Han Family Young Master wasn't the only one in the rosy clouds. Reflected Years said to the other players in the rosy clouds with a dark expression, "What's going on? Will your guild pay 10,000 gold coins? "
How could they not be shocked by the Han Family Young Master's behavior? At this time, they were busy reporting it to President Gu Xiao Shang! However, when the Reflection of Time questioned them in such a tone, they couldn't help but feel a common enemy. They glared at the Reflection of Time and said, "It's none of your business."
Shadow Years wasn't fighting alone. Black Representative and Mu Yun Representative were now his assistants, and they came over to give advice. "What are you guys talking about? As you can see, the auction was going well, but you suddenly raised the price so high. What's going on? "
"What's going on? I'm just bluffing! If you want it, then state your price. If you don't want it, then give up. What's with all this talk? " The players in the rosy clouds' tone suddenly became more and more forceful because they had received instructions from the president. "10,000 it is. We can still afford it. What are you guys making a fuss about?"
They were ashamed of being lectured by the president. Then, they felt that Han Family Young Master's unusual bid had shocked the representatives of the three major guilds. It was a very satisfying thing, so they happily stood on the Han Family Young Master's side.
At this time, Yun Xiang's countdown had reached "10," and it was already "9, 8, 7, 6."
"Stop, stop first! This is a special situation. We need time to think about it. " Reflected Years hurriedly came over and shouted. He felt that the auction house wouldn't refuse this request. After all, once they discussed it, it was possible that the price would rise. If they continued to count, it was very likely that the price would stop at 10,000 gold coins.
Xi Xiaotian waved his hand, and Yun Xiang's countdown stopped. Just as the people from the three major guilds heaved a sigh of relief, the people in the rosy clouds started to complain. "What's going on? What's going on? Do you guys have any rules? Didn't the three of you say 30 seconds? You changed your mind when you realized that it wasn't good for you? No, continue counting! "
The three representatives were so anxious that their foreheads were covered in sweat. Indeed, they were the ones who wanted to count, and now they were the ones who called for a stop. It didn't seem right for the three of them to do everything. The three of them couldn't find any reason to argue. At this time, they only hoped that the auction house would be more unscrupulous and shamelessly comply with their request based on the principle that it was beneficial to them.
In the end, the auction house was so cultured. Xi Xiaotian shrugged helplessly and gestured to Yun Xiang. "Continue."
"Five."
"Wait!" The three of them cried.
"Four."
"Guild leader! 10,000 isn't enough! "
"Three."
"It's already 10,000? What's going on? "
"Two."
"There's no time to talk. Can you still add?"
"One."
"Wait."
Wait my a * s! At the last second, the three of them received the same reply from their guild leader. Their hearts sank.
"Ten thousand gold going once." At this time, Xi Xiaotian began the regular three-second countdown, giving the three representatives another three seconds. The news sent them into a frenzy.
"There's no time. One, two, three. Can we go up to 20,000?" the three shouted in unison.
"Ten thousand gold going twice."
There was no reply from the guild. The three of them were so anxious that they were on the verge of tears.
"Ten thousand gold going thrice." Xi Xiaotian raised his right hand. Although there was no hammer in his hand, his swing was no different from a hammer.
"18650 gold!!!" At this moment, someone shouted. Everyone turned to look and saw Reflection Time's fierce expression. This price had come from him.
Reflection Time also hadn't received a reply from the guild leader. But unlike the other two representatives, his position in Unhindered was quite high. Although Unsworn Sword was the guild leader, Reflection Time had the same right to speak. The only thing Unsworn Sword had was the system authority that the guild leader had. In this regard, Unsworn Sword wouldn't bicker with Reflection Time. After all, the two of them were old buddies.
After waiting for a long time without receiving a reply, Reflected Time made up his mind and decided to raise the price again. Only after he was done did he inform Sword of the Unsworn Sword. Unsworn Sword was still in the midst of discussing with the others when he found out that Reflection Time had raised the price to 18650 gold. He was shocked. It wasn't that Reflection Time had taken matters into his own hands. More importantly, this was an auction. He could've just raised the price slowly. Why did he raise the price by 8,000 gold in one go?
Reflection Time's actions bought everyone another 30 seconds of time to discuss. The representatives succinctly reported the situation to the guild leader and asked for his opinion. At this time, Han Family Young Master also passed by like a ghost. He looked at Reflection Time and said, "Not bad at math!"
The Han family's young master raised the price to 10,000 gold coins, 8,650 gold coins. According to the system's auction rules, this was the lowest bid, and it was difficult for the Reflection of Time to raise the price without missing a single coin.
"What are you trying to do now?" Reflection Time hoped that the auction would end quickly while this person wasn't around. He had a feeling that Han Family Young Master wasn't here for the auction. He was just here to cause trouble. The people from Rosy Clouds said that this auction might be caused by Qianli Drunk and Sword Demon, but wasn't Han Family Young Master their comrade? Could it be …
Reflection Time couldn't help but wonder. When the black representative and Muyun representative saw Han Family Young Master appear, they also stared at him. They had even forgotten to ask the guild leader for an answer.
"Could it be that this person …" Everyone had the same thought.
As expected, Han Family Young Master didn't disappoint them. He waved at Xi Xiaotian and said, "30,000 gold, thank you."
Everyone's faces paled. Han Family Young Master turned around and poured himself a glass of wine. He raised his glass to everyone and drank it in one go. He smiled and said, "How is it? I didn't disappoint you, right? "
At this time, the three representatives all received a reply from the guild leader. "Alright, the result of the latest discussion. Everyone in the guild will fork out 30 gold. The upper limit is 30,000. Feel free to bid!"
The three of them read the message in a daze. A bitter smile appeared on their faces as they replied together, "It's already 30,000."
"What?" The guild was in an uproar. Today's auction was really exciting!
Reflection Time was no longer irritated. He calmly sent a message to Unsworn Sword, "Stop bidding! I think Han Family Young Master might be up to something. "
"Oh? What if he's not up to anything? "
"Not up to anything? Then let Gu Xiaoshang get the quest. Are you happy with it? "Reflection Time said.
"Mm, not bad." Unsworn Sword acted cool.
The black representative and Muyun representative had the same opinion. They strongly condemned Han Family Young Master's actions. At the same time, they expressed that if this continued, they would only end up bleeding. There was no need for them to give up.
Thirty seconds passed, and the three representatives didn't move. Xi Xiaotian counted down from three, and the three still didn't move. Han Family Young Master smiled and raised his glass to everyone. "Thank you."
"30,000 gold coins, sold!" Xi Xiaotian finally waved his hand, and the auction came to an end. Gu Fei and the others who were hiding in the dark were all gritting their teeth. They had heard the entire auction. They had every reason to believe that Han Family Young Master had already noticed something and was deliberately causing trouble.
"Congratulations." Xi Xiaotian greeted Han Family Young Master.
"You're welcome. Call them out!" Han Family Young Master said.
"Call who?" Xi Xiaotian didn't understand.
"Do you still want to hide?" Han Family Young Master patted the pile of wood behind Xi Xiaotian.
"What's wrong?" Xi Xiaotian continued to be confused.
The young master of the Han Clan raised his head, and the people he had brought with him all stepped forward. "Push it down." Han Family Young Master pointed at the pile of wood. The people immediately came forward and pushed and shoved, but the logs didn't move at all.
"What are you doing?" Xi Xiaotian asked curiously. At the same time, there was a flurry of footsteps. A large group of people from Among the Colorful Clouds had all entered the sawmill. Han Family Young Master waved his hand and pointed at the piles of wood around them. "Let's take a look."
"Wait!" Xi Xiaotian suddenly stood up to stop them.
"What's wrong?" Han Family Young Master smiled meaningfully. At the same time, he sent a message to Gu Xiaoshang, telling her to prepare for battle. Gu Xiaoshang understood and gave the order in the guild chat. The people from Among the Colorful Clouds gradually surrounded the piles of wood.
Xi Xiaotian didn't panic. He pointed at NPC Werther on top of the pile of wood and said, "This is the NPC for this quest. The quest's plot is related to the surrounding wood piles. Your actions have destroyed the structure of the wood piles. If the quest can't be accepted because of this, then whose fault is it?"
"Oh, I wonder what quest's plot is related to these wood piles?" Han Family Young Master said.
"Count the number of wood piles." Xi Xiaotian said.
"Oh? You guys don't even have the ability to complete a counting quest? "Han Family Young Master laughed.
"Of course there's a parallel quest. We have no problem with counting, but we can't kill NPCs. Now that you've dismantled the wood piles, I can't guarantee that the quest will still be there. If you guys can't receive the quest, then we'll have already given up for nothing. Will you guys still pay the thirty thousand gold? "Xi Xiaotian said.
"So it's like that. Then it's simple. We'll first receive the quest, then we'll dismantle the wood piles. That should be fine right?" Han Family Young Master said.
"Oh, then if you guys still can't receive the quest, then the system doesn't have this setting. We'll just have to admit that we're unlucky." Xi Xiaotian said.
"Our escape route is already paved!" Han Family Young Master laughed.
"Do you want to receive the quest?" Xi Xiaotian confirmed.
The quest needed to be received by the guild leader. Gu Xiaoshang had already arrived at this time. He was called over by Han Family Young Master. After nodding his head, Xi Xiaotian pretended to send a message and nodded his head, "Okay, we've already given up on the quest. As long as you receive the quest, please pay."
"Okay." Gu Xiaoshang nodded his head. NPC Werther was on top of the wood pile. Gu Xiaoshang said as he prepared to go up and receive the quest. Han Family Young Master moved to Xi Xiaotian's side and tilted his head, "There's really a quest?"
"Of course." Xi Xiaotian laughed.
Gu Xiaoshang was already halfway up when Han Family Young Master suddenly had a thought and hurriedly said, "Wait, wait, don't go up yet."
Gu Xiaoshang turned his head, expressing his confusion.
"Is this pile of wood sturdy enough?" The young master of the Han Family suddenly walked forward and patted the pile of logs.
"What do you mean?" Xi Xiaotian asked.
"Dismantle the wood pile. If you don't receive the quest, you'll still pay. Is that okay?" Han Family Young Master said.
"As long as there's money, we don't care." Xi Xiaotian shrugged his shoulders.
"What do you mean?" Gu Xiaoshang didn't understand.
"Come down!" Han Family Young Master gestured for Gu Xiaoshang to come down and called the players over, "Dismantle the wood pile. There's no need to dismantle anything else, just this pile."
The people in the rosy clouds immediately got to work. They transformed into workers in the lumberyard and came over to move the wood pile. The players were simple and violent. They didn't care what kind of structure it was, they just pulled whichever one was convenient. In just a few moves, the wood pile collapsed. NPC Werther, who was on top of the wood pile, couldn't stand still and fell down. The players in the rosy clouds had been waiting for orders and were all ready for battle. However, there was no one in the rolling wood pile like what Han Family Young Master had said.
The representatives of the three major guilds hadn't left yet. They looked at the actions of the rosy clouds and were a bit confused. Many players who were doing normal quests heard the commotion and came over to watch, discussing what kind of large scale quest this was.
Xi Xiaotian acted as if nothing had happened. He waited until the rolling wood piles stopped one by one before saying to Han Family Young Master, "You can pay now. As for whether there's a quest or not, that's not our responsibility."
Han Family Young Master's expression was very ugly. Did he miscalculate this time? But the truth was right in front of him. There was no ambush in the lumberyard. He had thought that the wood pile was hollow and that there were players hiding inside. NPC Werther was on top of the wood pile and had to climb up to accept the quest. If the wood pile was empty and there was no support, Gu Xiaoshang would immediately fall into the trap and be slaughtered. Han Family Young Master had predicted that this would be the step of the auction. However, there was no one … What was worse was that although there was no quest, the other party had already used the previous auction to escape. The 30,000 gold had to be spent.
Gu Xiaoshang didn't care about that and walked up to talk to Werther. The boy's silly lines didn't seem like he had a quest at all. Xi Xiaotian looked at Han Family Young Master sympathetically. "How unfortunate!"
Han Family Young Master looked at Xi Xiaotian and didn't say anything. He casually took out three money bags from his pocket. Perhaps there was a mission, or perhaps there was no mission at all. However, due to the young master of the Han Clan's misjudgment, there was now a situation where there was no mission but he had to pay the gold coins. The young master of the Han Clan did not hesitate and decided to bear the burden himself. He threw the three bags of coins to Xi Xiaotian and said, "You win."
"Same to you." Xi Xiaotian smiled and turned to Gu Xiaoshang. "It's a pity that Guild Leader Gu didn't receive the quest. Perhaps you can try piling up the wood again and send the NPC up again."
Reflection Years and the other two guild representatives were having a great time watching this. There was no quest, but the money was still paid. Moreover, it was from Han Family Young Master's own pocket. There was actually such a great thing in the world. The three of them tried very hard not to laugh out loud. Reflection Years and the others had been ripped off by Han Family Young Master many times. Now that they saw him lose thirty thousand gold for nothing, it was as if the heavens had opened their eyes.
Gu Xiaoshang walked in front of Han Family Young Master and clicked his tongue. "You're rich!"
"So-so!" Han Family Young Master said.
"Don't say that I'm not loyal. Here, I'll give you twenty thousand gold. Don't feel too bad about it." Gu Xiaoshang said.
"No need, it's just a small amount." Han Family Young Master said.
"What do you think about this?" Gu Xiaoshang was a straightforward person and didn't push things around with Han Family Young Master. He directly threw the money at Han Family Young Master.
In the end, Han Family Young Master didn't even take it. He allowed the two bags of money to fall to the ground and kicked them back like he was kicking trash. He said, "The quest definitely doesn't exist. However, there's one thing I'm not sure about. Is this a trap set up by Drunk Qianli or is it a scam set up by this girl?"
"If it's a trap set up by Drunk Qianli, then the goal shouldn't be money right?" Gu Xiaoshang said.
"Of course not …" Han Family Young Master said.
The other three guilds had already retreated when the thirty thousand gold hit the hammer. Of course, they were still concerned about the quest. Apart from leaving the three representatives behind, they also left some people behind to see if there were any opportunities to take advantage of the situation. As for the others, they returned to their positions. Those who ran quests continued their quests and those who did reconnaissance continued their reconnaissance. The guild leader brought the remaining members back to the resurrection camp and set up camp.
"Guild leader, there's something up ahead!!!" The Unchung Mutsu who was returning to the resurrection camp suddenly received a report from the Hawkeye Sharpshooter.
A hundred meters in front of their team, a figure appeared. He stood against the wind and beside him was a dark purple longsword stabbed into the ground.
"A thousand people is a bit difficult. If it's two or three hundred, we can still try …" Gu Fei played with the ring on his hand and nodded.
