Chapter 1044: Old Nine Of The Auction
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Freedom City was only this popular mainly because of the fact that the auction was held in this city.
Therefore, the properties at the periphery were also there to serve these wealthy men which explained why this was also where they gathered large military corps here.
There were large crowds of players standing by the roadside waiting for business and each one of them did not seem to be of low level.
When these players saw unfamiliar faces like w.a.n.g Yu and Fearless, they greeted them from afar, “Boss, do you want protection? We are very cheap…”
Of course, the target customers of these people were pampered sons of wealthy families. Given w.a.n.g Yu’s ability, there was naturally no need for these people to protect him.
The two of them ignored everyone as they walked right to the auction place.
The auction place located right opposite the City Lord Mansion was in a building which looked similar to a church.
Evidently, the organisers of this auction should be players and exceptionally rich players.
The small and remote shop that w.a.n.g Yu owned back at home was already worth quite a sum, let alone a building of this size in this golden district.
“I’m sorry, the auction will only start tomorrow.”
When w.a.n.g Yu and Fearless wanted to enter, Bob and Bobby at the entrance extended their arms to stop w.a.n.g Yu and Fearless.
There was a clear difference between securities in this superior region as compared to security guards everywhere else. They were much more polite than the cold-blooded guards.
“Haha!” Fearless laughed, “We’re not here to buy anything. We’re here to sell!”
Bob sized Fearless up and when he saw the decent equipment on Fearless’ body, he said, “My apologies, please report your ID!”
For auctions like this, they belonged to a private event held by players and did not have system guards to back them up. Therefore, the safety of their event would be comparatively lower and they were obviously not going to let any random stranger enter… Otherwise, they wouldn’t know whether to cry or laugh when things got stolen in there. One must know that the items there were all not cheap goods.
The two guards also hard ID above their heads so it was easier for them to verify the ident.i.ty of the people arriving.
As a hardcore player, Fearless naturally understood this logic which was why he replied, “Quan Zhen Sect, Fearless!”
After Fearless said that, he sent a friend request and underwent the ident.i.ty verification.
However, the two expressions on the two guards’ face changed drastically when they saw Fearless’ ID. “You… You are Sect Head Fearless of the Quan Zhen Sect?”
Concurrently, the two of them also sent a message to the guild chat, “Everyone, please be careful. The members of the Quan Zhen Sect are here!”
Quan Zhen Sect had always been an infamous sect who caused trouble wherever they went. The fact that they were here meant that nothing good was going to happen.
Moreover, the person here was the leading figure of the Quan Zhen Sect.
Even though the two guards were not afraid of these two men because they knew they had an advantage in numbers, they still wanted to be cautious. The Quan Zhen Sect was famous for breaking into a house for robbery and they were extremely experienced in doing something like that.
“That’s me!” Fearless nodded as he continued, “Can I go in now?”
The guard hurriedly replied, “You have to wait a little longer. Our Boss hasn’t replied to us yet.”
“Tsk, tsk… Just look at how infamous you guys have become!”
w.a.n.g Yu couldn’t help but comment after seeing how the guards responded after hearing his name.
While w.a.n.g Yu also knew that the Quan Zhen Sect had a bad reputation, he didn’t expect it to be so bad… They were even guarded against for coming to an auction to sell their items.
“And this is?” At this point, the guard also noticed w.a.n.g Yu and asked him professionally.
“He is Iron Bull!” Fearless pointed at w.a.n.g Yu to introduce him and even turned to w.a.n.g Yu, “Send him a friend request for him to verify your ident.i.ty.”
“Whaaaat!”
Just when Fearless said that, the two guards retreated subconsciously as their shocked expressions turned into fear, “You’re Iron Bull?”
w.a.n.g Yu was just mocking the Quan Zhen Sect’s reputation but what he didn’t know was that the Quan Zhen Sect’s reputation was nothing compared to his. w.a.n.g Yu’s vicious name had overshadowed everyone from the Quan Zhen Sect.
“Haha! Look at how infamous you guys have become,” Fearless mocked.
“…”
When w.a.n.g Yu saw their expressions, he frowned and replied, “That’s me!”
After saying that, he also sent a friend request.
Bob glanced closely at w.a.n.g Yu’s ID before sending their IDs to their Boss.
Very soon, Bob received a reply from his Boss, “Let them in.”
Bob and his partner didn’t understand why their Boss was allowing the wolf into their home. However, he was the Boss so Bob and Bobby could only open the door and said, “Please come on in.”
“Why are they acting like this is such a serious matter?” w.a.n.g Yu complained as he walked in.
“Hehe!”
Fearless snickered as he followed closely behind.
On the outside, the auction place looked like a church but who would have expected the interior to look like one too. It was merely slightly smaller than a typical resurrection point. This Boss of the auction place must have been really wealthy.
After bypa.s.sing the lobby, w.a.n.g Yu and Fearless arrived at the back of the shrine. A fat middle-aged man walked out and welcomed them enthusiastically, “Welcome, my two honourable experts. Old Nine never welcomed you at the gate so please forgive me, please forgive me.”
So this fella was called Old Nine.
“Pah!” When w.a.n.g Yu and Fearless heard Old Nine’s words, their hearts sank as they turned their heads to the side.
F*ck! The two of them had been standing outside for half a day and if he really felt sorry for not welcoming them at the gate, he could have just walked out. Why was he pretending to be so courteous here?
Old Nine was a businessman who understood the meaning of greeting his customers with a smile.
Seeing that w.a.n.g Yu and Fearless did not fall for his trick, Old Nine smiled and said, “It couldn’t be helped. People in our line face greater risk so I hope you two can forgive us.”
This was the truth from Old Nine because they were dealing with extremely wealthy people. Even so, they didn’t have the protection from the system guards. Hence, it made sense for them to be more careful.
Fearless didn’t want to waste time as he went straight to the point, “That’s okay. We are here to auction an item not here to chat with you. Why don’t you take a look and give us an estimation of the price?”
“Oh?” Old Nine smiled, “I wonder what great item you two have to sell it through my auction?”
w.a.n.g Yu smiled faintly, “A small plaything.”
w.a.n.g Yu took out the dragon scales, dragon flesh, dragon bone and basically all the materials he got from Heavenly Dragon.
Old Nine was dealing with rich people’s business on a daily basis so he was undoubtedly more experienced and had better foresight and judgement than any other ordinary players.
Looking at the items on w.a.n.g Yu’s hands, he was slightly taken aback before smiling happily, “I see that they are all dragon materials, Black Dragon! I can’t believe you guys manage to obtain such rare materials! The two of you are indeed capable!”
