BXBX NOVEL Chapter 371 - 371
"The Ability Potions will be going for the same price as the last. Start at 100,000 Supreme Coins and with a minimum of 1,000 coins per batch! Bidding, Start!" Deia called out the next moment, not giving them time to contemplate the manipulation.
Immediately, those who had lost out roared and began furiously bidding, while those who had won earlier paled. Now that they had gone this far, they had become vicious. They wanted to see things to the end and have the path forward for their competitors completely cut off!
As such, they traded even more of their precious goods for Supreme Coins just to bid once more. The first bid soared past 700,000 Supreme Coins quickly, the potions exploding even higher than the scrolls as the desperation got worse.
The first bid ended at 865k Supreme Coins. The second at 908k, then 1100k, 1230k, 1490k, 1540k, 1588k, 1,597k, 1,651k, and the tenth one at 1,782k Supreme Coins.
When this round came to an end, the tension reached a peak. Some powers directly went berserk in their VIP rooms, but were soon shocked when their rampage dealt very little damage to the walls.
Just what the hell kind of material was this building made of?!
However, this made them rather calm down, taking deep breaths as they controlled their feelings and thoughts. Even though they had lost out, all hope was not gone.
Heh, thanks to the excitement before, those who had won had left some clues in their behavior. All these powers had to do was wait for the auction to end and the goods to be delivered, then what happened next did not need to be explained.
As for the auction house, there was nothing they could do.
They certainly couldn't babysit these fellows all the way home, could they? They also couldn't dispatch guards to protect their customer's home bases as that would cause many different problems on its own.
Realizing this, those who won paled as they trembled in their VIP rooms. They wanted to leave immediately, but that would be even more damning, so they could only remain and start to plan out measures to escape after they received the goods.
This left the auction floor with two extremes, the feeling of cruelty and the feeling of fear. The intentions of predator and prey mixed around, creating this strange combination that left the area stifled.
"Right, now that we are done with that, we shall move onto the Space Stones. We have 100 of them for sale, and we'll be selling them in batches of 20! After all, Space Stones are better used in quantity to perform various tasks, hence the large batch amount."
Deia tapped her lips smugly. "Of course, the price will rise to reflect this. Each batch will be sold at 120,000 Supreme Coins with a minimum increment of 2,000 Supreme Coins for each! Bidding, start!"
The bids immediately began, as many powers were in great need of Space Stones.
The Space element dungeons and resource zones across the entire Faust were very scarce.
Even worse, their drop rate for things like Space Stones was low. One normally had to at least venture to the levels with Adept stage bosses to have a somewhat reliable chance to get one. Naturally, such stones were more valuable the deeper one dived in such a dungeon.
The only reason Foldo used to have one in his possession was because one had secretly been found by a very lucky fellow in Yunian City's Space element dungeon.
But no one in Andrato had a fucking clue what that was since they were too poor to have portals. If Andrato had been like Fraterina or Favelian, it would never have been Darius' turn to luck out on discovering such a thing.
The bids began to climb for the stones, as it was mostly Empires from Fallon, Sects from Pan, Prefectures from Houto, and Holy Lands from Unyris who fought for such things.
The 5 batches were sold at 446k, 564k, 622k, 898h, and the final batch a 1220k Supreme Coins. Those who got them were extremely satisfied, as they would be able to use them for so many things.
Deia then captured the attention of the crowd once more. "Our fourth item is something you can only wish for but never acquire. Even if it were completely normal, its rarity and value would be enough to see it placed in the highest auctions. Here, we have a superior version on sale, something we can only produce sparingly, so make sure to bid for it."
"I'll be honest and admit that it might take months if not years for us to stock another one in one of our shops, so these 100 pieces might be all that will ever be sold. Please keep that in mind when bidding."
After Deia spoke, the crowd was abuzz once more. Nothing was more effective than selling something extremely valuable and precious that had a low supply. Just like before, it would spark desperation and a fear of being left out.
"The starting price for the Omni-Elemental Enchants is 200,000 Supreme Coins for a batch of 5. The minimum increment is 5,000 Supreme Coins, so let the bidding begin!"
Immediately, bids were called out quickly and furtively. In the end, the price had escalated from the first - and cheapest one- at 1345k to the last at 5590k Supreme Coins, breaking the record of the highest spent so far.
The auction reached an unprecedented stage of calm and serenity as many powers relaxed in their seats. It was over, this hellish auction that was full of allure and danger was finally over.
However, they suddenly remembered that there was still the climax item that the auctioneer had kept in reserve to be announced at the appropriate time.
Back when Fabio had taken a look, Deia had mischievously put her hand on her lips, stressing him to keep things a secret.
Just what could it be?
