The next day, before the auction started, Xiao Zhi and Teague entered the auction venue through the secret door in the lounge.

Because of Xiao Zhi's special need for anonymity, this passage is exclusively for him, leading directly to a private room in the venue, and no one will disturb him on the way.

A magic barrier is set up in the private room, and the people inside can see the outside world, but the people outside cannot spy on the situation inside, and even the sound from it will not come out at all.

In order to ensure the safety of the guests, there is also no waiter in the private room, only a delicate bell is placed on the table. When the guests inside have needs, just ring the bell, and a waiter will come to the small cubicle outside the private room to ask the needs of the guests.

The bidding is done through the magic crystal board on the desktop, which also does not require human assistance, and also provides an advance quota of 3 million, which is simply too intimate.

This is the first time Xiao Zhi has experienced this level of platoon, and he can't help feeling that the life of a boss is probably so unpretentious and boring.

He went to the window and looked down. The window of the private room was facing the auction table, and the view was very good.

There were already many people seated in the spacious hall below, and they came from all over the continent.

In addition to the Xiyue Clan and the Human Clan, there were also the Wood Spirit Clan and the Orc Clan. There were also some people who were wearing cloaks and could not see clearly. Looking at the occasional pale skin, Xiao Zhi guessed that they might be the undead of Hessen.

Xiao Zhi also saw the players in it, and they all had a book in their hands, which seemed to be very serious. But Xiao Zhi knew from the look of the book that these guys were either in the show world or in the water forum.

He also took out the address book, and sure enough, today's World Channel has been occupied by the auction.

"I just asked a scalper who sold me 300,000 for an invitation letter! Why didn't he grab it!!"

"Don't be fooled, the ticket must be fake. I only got the invitation letter after spending 600,000 in the store."

"Worship the local tyrants, poverty stopped me from the door of the auction..."

"Blindly guessed that it was the Xiyue Clan who sold scalper tickets."

"Xiyue Clan +1"

"Ah, ah, I really want to find a rich woman to show me the auction!"

"The rich woman said: Go away, you are so ugly that it affected her gaming experience."

"I'm live streaming [Xinghai Auction], everyone is welcome to watch [link]."

"Thank you for giving me the opportunity to experience the cloud!"

"Thank you for giving me the opportunity to experience the cloud! +1"

"Thank you for giving me the opportunity to experience the cloud! +2"

...

Soon after, the auction officially began.

The auctioneer wearing the Xiyue clan's dress boarded the auction stage. After the welcome speech, the auction items were released one after another.

The Xinghai Auction is worthy of being the biggest auction in the whole continent. All the people on stage are treasures, from weapons and equipment to rare materials, and even antiques and mysterious items.

Every item in the auction will cause a commotion in the player's world channel. With the help of the contact book, the players have become the race with the highest enthusiasm for participating in the auction on the mainland.

Of course, from a bystander's point of view - the Asanassi today are also laughing strangely at books.

The Athanasi are indeed the most difficult race to understand on the continent.

Xiao Zhi looked at the auction site below and the players in the water world, and he had the pleasure of watching.

Teague, however, seized the opportunity to lean against the window, recording the information and prices of the auction items while observing the various interpersonal relationships below, presumably preparing for the next scam.

As a liar, he is also very serious.

After a while, a new lot appeared, and Xiao Zhi took his attention away from the rants of the players and looked at the stage.

What appeared was a bright red staff. This staff was made of some kind of gemstone. The whole was crystal clear, and there seemed to be lava flowing inside.

Obviously, this is a staff made of fire materials.

The auctioneer introduced: "The Fire Staff Soul Chaser, made of Uradis flame crystal, is the masterpiece of the orc weapon master Baluqiang. Not only is it stronger than metal, it can also withstand high temperatures, and it is resistant to fire. School spells have a 5% damage bonus, and - with exclusive attack effects."

Hearing Baluqiang's name, everyone in the audience couldn't help but get excited.

That is a legendary weapon master who has built weapons for many strong people in his life. It can be said that everyone who holds a weapon made by him eventually becomes a giant.

But after a short period of excitement, doubts arose in the hearts of the well-informed bigwigs present.

But it is still too early for the auction to end. How can the works of Master Baluqi be assigned to the last three important positions? Why are you showing up now?

The auctioneer continued: "But unfortunately, Master Baluqiang failed to complete this work. He unfortunately died when he went to the Changyue Desert to search for rare materials. It has been a hundred years since then."

Only then did everyone in the audience understand that it turned out to be a semi-finished product, so it was no wonder that it could not occupy the most critical position.

Xiao Zhi looked towards the Soul Chaser, and the item description was as follows:

Soul Chaser (semi-finished product)

one-handed stick

Use Level: 140

Magic attack power: 1423——? ? ?

Physical attack power: 1786——? ? ?

Attack range +2

Mana Condensation Speed ​​+5

Fire spell damage bonus: 5%——? ? ?

Attack effect: Randomly trigger the special effect "Soul Chasing", the skill power is increased by 100%, and the range is increased by 20%, lasting 30 seconds

Description: The last work of Master Baluqiang, but unfortunately it was not completed completely. It needs secondary processing. Please explore the processing method by yourself.

In ZERO, ordinary weapons only have a dry attack power, such as knowing, hitting, breaking defense, crit, casting speed, etc. in the era of keyboard online games, don't even think about it.

Want to increase damage? Hit the point of the target yourself.

Want to increase casting speed? Please practice by yourself.

Want to boost your hits? Please practice by yourself.

Want to hit bursts? Please practice by yourself.

In terms of attributes alone, Soul Chaser is worthy of being a master work, especially the accompanying Soul Chasing special effects.

On the Dazemenia continent, there are very few weapons with special effects, and only those at the top can have them. As for spell damage bonus, mana condensation speed, and attack range bonus, these are all configurations that only top weapons can have.

But for Soul Chaser, its current position is awkward.

It has the attributes of an advanced weapon, but only has an attack power of level 140. Even because of the sturdy materials, the physical attack power exceeds the magic attack, and it is very easy to sway people.

What's even more embarrassing is that Master Balu has passed away, and he can no longer promote Soul Chaser.

Xiao Zhi believed that the previous owner of Soul Chaser must have also made many attempts, hoping to make it a real top weapon, but now that Soul Chaser is here, it means that the attempt must have failed.

As a low-level weapon, its price is too high for ordinary adventurers to afford. As a high-level weapon, it is a bit worse, making the big guys feel tasteless.

But Xiao Zhi's eyes were bright, this was the weapon he needed now.

The staff he is currently using is level 50, and the attack power is less than 300. Now he is trapped in the game and cannot leave. In order to ensure his survival, he urgently needs to become stronger quickly.

Hidden quests are hard to come by, and he doesn't think he can meet another one right away. Then, getting a powerful weapon is the best option to improve your combat power in a short time.

A soul chaser with a low level but powerful attributes is just right for him. As for the question of money...

He had sold a lot of materials for 770,000 yuan before, and the room had an advance payment of 3 million yuan. In addition, he was very confident in the auction items he took out, so money was really not a problem.

The current Xiao Zhi is no longer the pauper who evaded the ticket with Qianyewu in his back in order to save 800 Jinbei.

As for the upgrade of Soul Chaser, as a player, he has such a huge source of information as the forum, and it will definitely be easier to solve than the aborigines.

It really can't be done... After he has a new weapon, he can ask Teague to sell it to a local tyrant player with a lot of stupid money...

The feelings between players have always been plastic.

The auctioneer announced the start of the bidding: "Staff Soul Chaser from Master Baluqiang, the reserve price is 500,000 gold shells."

Many people who participated in the auction in the audience thought the same question. The native races on the mainland did not show much enthusiasm for the soul chaser, but they only increased the price cautiously.

The players are different. They are probably planning to find clues through the forum. The enthusiasm for bidding is much higher than that of the native races.

"550,000!"

"600000!"

"700,000!"

...

The price went up all the way, and soon came to 1.15 million.

The only people who are still bidding are the people in the two private rooms below. Looking at the books in their hands, they know that they are two players.

"1.2 million!"

The person in the private room on the left said to the private room on the right after bidding, "What are you doing with the good-hearted people? Isn't Ruo Ye a style?"

"1.25 million!"

The one on the right was not to be outdone: "Then why are you God of War joining in the fun, isn't Longinus a swordsman?"

"1.3 million!"

Private room on the left: "We are not allowed to need anyone else!"

"1.35 million!"

Private room on the right: "We also need other people!"

"1.4 million!"

Private room on the left: "This time we have to make an appointment!"

There were no further bids in the box on the right, as if weighing whether to continue increasing the price.

The auctioneer waited for a while and began to count down: "1.4 million for the first time!"

"1.4 million for the second time! Is there any higher!"

The box on the left feels that he has the chance to win: "The best is like water, if you have the ability, continue to add-"

"1.5 million."

The voice in the box on the left was interrupted, and the offer came not from the opposite side, but from the stage.

He looked towards the auctioneer. saw the auctioneer's gaze turned to the row of private rooms on the top floor. It was the exclusive property of every powerful and powerful man on the mainland. It was the legendary top VIP room, also known as the rich woman's happy room.

The bid amount is displayed right below one of the private rooms.

Because of the barrier of the magic barrier, the people below could not see the situation inside at all, and could only see the darkness.

Which side of the big guy has nothing to do and wants to take a half-finished product home to play? Is it a collection fetish?

"Guests from the VIP box bid 1.5 million! Are there any higher bids?"

"1.5 million for the first time!" The auctioneer started the countdown.

"Shit, boss, can we follow?" the player in the box on the left who was in charge of bidding turned back and asked.

"Continue." The man behind replied.

"1.55 million!"

"1.7 million."

"1.75 million!"

"Two million."

The box on the left was obviously hesitant and did not immediately increase the price.

At this time, the box on the right finally found the fun: "Why doesn't the God of War continue? Continue to add if you have the ability~"

"2.1 million..." The box on the left still bid.

"3000000."

Player in charge of bidding: "..."

The other party doesn't seem to be short of money, how do you play this? Can't you give them a little face?

"3 million for the first time!"

"3 million for the second time! Is there any more!"

The private room on the left was silent, and finally stopped increasing the price.

"3 million for the third time! Congratulations to this distinguished guest for winning the Soul Chaser!"

There was applause in the hall, and everyone looked towards the private room on the top floor. Although they could not see anything, it did not affect their curiosity.

Of course it was Xiao Zhi who made the bid, and after capturing the Soul Chaser, he no longer cared about the situation below.

He opened the address book, and sure enough, the two player guilds that had just competed appeared on it. Both parties expressed cordial greetings and sincere wishes on the performance of the other party in the auction just now.

Xiao Zhi ate the melon with great interest. In the gossip, there was still speculation about who was in the box, so he even ate his own melon.

Teague on the side couldn't help but whisper: "So you are so rich..."

Xiao Zhi didn't lift his head: "It's normal."

Teague said tentatively: "I also have an investment project here, which is aimed at all kinds of rich people"

Teague's voice stopped because Xiao Zhi raised his staff.

Forget it, let's study whether there are fat sheep below, Teague decisively recognized the reality.

Finally got to the last item.

At each Xinghai auction, the final auction items will set off a frenzy all over the continent.

Everyone present today is also looking forward to its debut, the hall is quiet, and the players present are no longer irritating the world.

"Now, let me solemnly introduce to you today's last lot, a dress made by Miyuki, a master of Asanasi design six hundred years ago, the Heart of Winter."

There was an uproar downstairs.

Because the name Miyuki is still resounding on the Dazemenya Continent to this day, everything related to her name has been auctioned for sky-high prices.

In the aristocratic circles of various countries, there is even a saying that "If you don't collect Miyuki's works, you don't deserve to be a noble." After this rumor spread, it pushed Miyuki's fame to a peak again.

But most of them are jewelry that can be passed down to the present. Even if a fragile existence like a dress is carefully preserved, it will be dilapidated after 600 years.

Unless... someone is willing to use the shadow of time, a magic circle that slows down the flow of time, to save it, but does anyone really want to be so extravagant? Such a large investment for a dress?

After a while, the Heart of Winter was pushed out by the waiter and displayed in front of everyone, so that people had to pick up the incredible guess.

This is a pure white dress made of Miyuki's most famous original fabric - philanza. It is said that Fei Lansha uses hundreds of materials, and only Miyuki knows how to make it. It has long since been lost and cannot be reproduced.

The design of the dress is exquisite, it seems that every line is in the right place, and every decoration seems to be there. It is the feeling of too much too much too little and too much simplicity that makes it appear quietly in front of everyone and attracts the attention of everyone in the audience.

Moreover, it looked brand new, as if Miyuki had just sewed it up, and it didn't lose its color at all with time.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhi showed a satisfied smile. The storage effect of the player's backpack is good after using it.

Xiao Zhi didn't buy this dress himself, but as a windfall for cutting cubs. He didn't quite understand why the bear-like strong man who was looking for him to PK collected this dream dress.

All the ladies are crazy.

In the circle of ladies, a piece of clothing has never been more than a piece of clothing.

Obviously, whoever gets it will have the top tier of the year. This is not only their personal face, but even represents the glory of the family behind them, and is an excellent opportunity to show their financial resources and expand their prestige.

The local tyrants in the players were also excited. They even understood the value of the word Miyue better than the NPCs in the game, because this one has long since fallen out, and her reputation in the real world is not inferior to that in the game.

Probably this is called "your uncle will always be your uncle".

The players were in a commotion, and the world channel scrolled like crazy, making it almost impossible to see what they were talking about.

"If my great-great-great-great-great-great-grandmother bought an extra piece of clothes in deep snow, now my family will have an extra room with a galaxy view!!!"

"Which big brother's family treasure is this! Did you inherit it from your elders?"

"Hey, why don't my parents have such a good vision!!"

"My family started playing ZERO from the generation of Grandpa Zeng Zeng Zeng. Unfortunately, Shen Xue died long ago at that time, and her works are hard to find."

In another top box.

Duke Sharona looked at his hand: "What a treacherous fellow."

In her hand, she was lying quietly with the brooch that Xiao Zhi gave her before. This brooch and the Heart of Winter on the auction stage below are obviously of the same style, and they are all works from Shenxue. There is nothing more suitable than them. match.

No wonder this gift was so generous.

Duke Sharona showed a playful smile: "A man who is a little careful is even cuter."

She turned her head and instructed her subordinate, "Be sure to take a picture."

"Master Shenxue's out-of-print dress-Winter Heart, the starting price is 5 million!"

Almost as soon as the auctioneer announced the start of the bidding, the price of Heart of Winter skyrocketed, so fast that the auctioneer didn't even have time to bid.

It broke the 10 million mark in 10 seconds.

Then, 20 million, 30 million, 40 million...

There are auctions held by the rich and powerful all over the continent. Once the big bosses who are not short of money grab a lot, the price has been pushed up to 100 million in less than a minute.

However, the pace of rising numbers has not stopped, and it continues to climb.

Those who entered the finals were all boxes on the top floor, and the people below watched as these rooms kept showing quotations, just as the currency they used was not Jinbei but Chinese cabbage.

Compared with them, Xiao Zhi bought a semi-finished staff with 300w, which was simply a matter of thrift and housekeeping.

The bidding speed gradually slowed down, and finally, Winter Heart's bid stopped at 160 million.

"160 million for the first time, has anyone come up with a higher price?"

"160 million second-"

"160 million for the third time! The deal! Congratulations to this honorable guest for getting the Heart of Winter!"

There was crazy applause from the audience, and Duke Sharona in the box slowly raised the corner of her mouth. In the next social season, she has a new bargaining chip.

The last lot was successfully auctioned, and this year's Xinghai auction also came to a successful conclusion. As usual, the auctioneer who presided over the auction stood on the stage to express his gratitude to the guests and welcome them to come again next time.

But at this moment, some people in the audience behaved strangely.

Xiao Zhi noticed that some people who were obviously players were very excited. While opening the address book, they were excitedly talking to the people next to them, and some people were even ready to stand up.

This kind of behavior is very abnormal. According to the tradition of Xinghai Auction, there will be banquets and performances after the auction.

Xiao Zhi learned from them and opened the address book, wanting to see what news made them so excited.

Swiped on the World Channel impressively:

"The Hessian Lord appeared in the Longmoon Desert!! It seems that a new quest instance has been opened!!!"

Exploration dungeon, a form of dungeon in ZERO, will only appear once and can accommodate everyone to enter at the same time, which is almost synonymous with overnight prosperity.

Experience, equipment, hidden quests, limited items, rare materials, lost skill scrolls... each is a word that drives players crazy.Not only players, but all races on the continent are unable to resist such temptation.

Xiao Zhi's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.
