Chapter 305: This Might Be the Weirdest Auction
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
After picking up the loot, the players quickly flew into the safe zone, afraid that they would be killed, and their treasures would be dropped. The players who exclaimed that they got the three G.o.dly weapons didn’t dare to show them off until they reached the safe zone.
“Hahahaha! The monster troops are lame! Come on! People of the Yuanheng Guild, take a screenshot!”
Many cultivators of the Yuanheng Pavilion stood in the Royal Palace before clicking open QQ and screenshotting everything around them.
Behind them was the huge corpse of the Evil Centipede!
Several hours had pa.s.sed since the monsters began charging at the cities. By now, edicts of the Biqi Royal Palace had been issued, and the monster troops had been stopped.
The players either took group pictures in the Royal Palace or flew back to their main cities to organize their loot.
Excitement, elation, and thrills filled the minds of players in the internet café, and they almost looked crazy!
Beside them, Mo Xian looked surprised. “What was that item? Someone yelled to offer 10,000 crystals to buy it?”
She saw that players fought for the treasures, but she wondered why people would offer such a big fortune to buy the treasures that couldn’t be taken out of the game. After all, the treasures didn’t sound like they were super powerful spiritual spells.
Before she could finish asking questions, she heard someone yell not far from her, “I offer 15,000 for the Bone Jade Staff!”
The disciples of the Nanhua Faction, who had just begun their experience in the internet café, were dazed. “15,000 crystals?!”
In the safe zone of Biqi City, the wizard who had gotten the Bone Jade Staff equipped it and instantly attracted a big crowd from both shops.
The player in the Jiuhua City Shop who had gotten the Judgement Staff also raised it. This staff had a huge black iron body that looked like a bamboo stick. It looked like a Chinese sword breaker, but it was several times thicker; it appeared to be powerful and aggressive.
The entire Biqi City was crowded with people who came to see the three G.o.dly weapons.
“Hahahaha!” Mr. Fang suddenly burst into laughter.
In his backpack lay a silver ring that was inlaid with precious blue pearls.
[Numb Ring – damage: 0-1]
“It has only a damage boost of 0-1. Why are you so smug about it?” Ruan Ning was at a loss for words.
“Damage of 0-1. What is the use is that thing?” Xi Yue said contemptuously, “I got a Strength Ring. Do you want it?”
“No! I don’t want it!” Mr. Fang had a Strength Ring and a Dragon Ring. He replaced the low-level Dragon Ring with the Numb Ring.
Then, he hacked someone randomly outside the safe zone.
New Snow (Nalan Mingxue) asked, “Why did you hack me?!”
Mr. Fang was surprised that he had hacked someone he knew, but he smirked. “It was just a greeting.”
Then, he hacked at Nalan Mingxue again.
Nalan Mingxue was about to hack him back when she sensed that her body turned stiff!
“What’s happening?!”
“The Evil Centipede?!”
“What’s this thing?” Nalan Mingxue froze. If Mr. Fang struck her twice more, she wouldn’t be able to run!
The girls beside them saw the effect and almost jumped up: it was the Evil Centipede’s ability to turn people into stone!
“The Numb Ring has the ability to turn people into stone, just like the Evil Centipede! The shop owner got a G.o.dly weapon!” There were a few players asking Ruan Ning if she would sell the Enchanting Light Skill Book and how much it was, and their eyes widened at this scene.
…
“I also want to see the three G.o.dly weapons.” Standing by the edge of the crowd, Jiang Xiaoyue was frustrated that she couldn’t squeeze in.
At this moment, the crowd grew so big that some of them stood outside of the safe zone.
“How come there’s a monster here?” Jiang Xiaoyue heard someone nearby gasp, and a wizard who was lower than level 30 shot out a Lightning Spell.
A rare beast that had two horns and looked like a Fire Kirin engulfed in flames became furious when it was. .h.i.t by the Lightning Spell, and it stood up on its hind legs and turned into a huge hill-like demon beast!
It spat out thick fire beams and knocked down several players who were about level 20!
“Its damage is so high!” A warrior who was higher than level 30 lost a lot of HP when he was. .h.i.t by several fire beams.
“Where are the Black Demon Guards? There’s another Clan Master?!”
“Come to the lower left of the safe zone! Come and attack it!”
“Its damage is so high!” Some Black Demon Guards yelled in their channel in QQ, “This Clan Master will for sure drop good stuff!”
“It is dying! It is dying!” With a cracking sound, the G.o.dly beast was killed.
“Why did you kill my G.o.dly beast?!” Confused, Jiang Xiaoyue raised her small hand and summoned another one.
“Another one?!” People exclaimed. In the chaotic Biqi City, no one heard Jiang Xiaoyue’s words, and they attacked it again and again.
After the second G.o.dly beast was killed, Jiang Xiaoyue continued to summon.
Sometime later, several Taoists yelled, “Stop! This isn’t a Clan Master! It’s a G.o.dly beast summoned by a Taoist! Summon G.o.dly Beast is a level 35 technique of Taoists!”
“Summon G.o.dly Beast?!” None of them had seen such a technique yet, and they were all dazed.
“It is just as powerful as a Clan Master!”
“So powerful!”
Soon, people swarmed up to see Jiang Xiaoyue.
For the first time, the horrifying power of G.o.dly beasts was presented before the players. Meanwhile, someone yelled in the crowd, “Summon G.o.dly Beast Skill Book! I have a Summon G.o.dly Beast Skill Book!”
Instantly, bedlam broke out among the Taoists!
…
Today was definitely the liveliest day since Fang Qi opened the internet cafes; it was even more crowded than the chaotic war between the two regions!
Many treasures were sold on the spot, but the prices of some treasures obviously weren’t suitable to be determined right now.
For example, two out of the three G.o.dly weapons on the server: the Bone Jade Staff and the Judgement Staff.
The second Enchanting Light and Summon G.o.dly Beast Skill Books on the server.
Some super rare skills including the Half Moon Saber, Ice Roar, and Flame Sword Techniques.
Some skills that were hard to determine the values of right now, such as Devil Trapping Curse, Holy Words Spell, and Teleportation.
The big forces gathered around the Bone Jade Staff, obviously not able to reach an agreement on the price.
Many people were asking about the price for Enchanting Light, and most of them offered more than 10,000 crystals. However, the final price hadn’t been determined.
“Are you planning to sell it?” Fang Qi looked at Ruan Ning and asked since she had a hesitant expression.
“Eh…” Ruan Ning indeed wanted to sell it. She could only use it in the game. In the real world, with her Spiritual River Realm, she could only enchant demon beasts of the Spiritual River Realm, and the value was much less than when it was used by a cultivator of the Divine Ocean Realm.
“How about auctioning it in the inner city,” Xi Yue suggested.
Besides the cultivators who wanted to buy the Enchanting Light Skill Book, there were other cultivators who were stuck in negotiations for the other treasures.
When they heard this suggestion, they brightened up. “Let’s go and do the deal in the auction house in the inner city as well!”
“This Daoist Brother,” Black Demon reminded him, “How about auctioning the Bone Jade Staff in the inner city? The highest bidder will get it!”
“Good idea!” Xi Chenzhou agreed. “It will give me time to prepare crystals.”
“Guys, the next auction in the inner city is imminent. Let’s go and visit the auction house, okay?” the leaders of the major forces suggested.
“Ugh…” Mr. Fang’s face turned dark. “The inner city earns easy money… With so many of us entering the inner city, they will earn hundreds of thousands of crystals, eh?”
After all, one must pay the fee of 1,000 crystal for each entrance!
“Hahaha!” Xi Chenzhou laughed and said, “Mr. Fang, you are new here so that you might not know. Some of the forces in the outer city enjoy the privilege of entering the inner city for free. Otherwise, no one would want to go there.”
“Do I have the privilege?” Fang Qi asked.
“Yes…” Xi Chenzhou said awkwardly, “Qin Honglin of the 36th Block used to have this privilege. Now that the leader of the 36th Block is Mr. Fang, you certainly enjoy this privilege.”
“Excellent!” The red-clothed cultivator who had the Bone Jade Staff said, “I’ll auction the Bone Jade Staff at the auction house in the inner city! The people who want it can bid for it and the highest bidder will get it!”
In the next moment, hundreds of players swarmed toward the inner city!
Before today, no one had ever imagined that these virtual treasures could one day be auctioned together with the treasures in the real world!
