Chapter 7 The Auction Begins (Part I)
In the three hours that the auction began, Zhou Yuan went out to "smoke a cigarette" almost every half hour. Then, within three hours, about a quarter of the first floor of the auction hall was found.
Well, in fact, all of these quarters are auction-ready items, and they still don't seem to be very valuable. At least, Zhou Yuan looked carefully for a long time, and he didn't find anything that he couldn't buy with the money in his hand. And you must know that although Zhou Yuan is rich, Song Hana is far richer than Zhou Yuan - these funds in Zhou Yuan's hands are estimated to be less than a fraction of Song Hana's. To be honest, if Song Hana wants to, it is more than enough to buy all the auction items in the entire auction hall and even the auction hall together.
So far, I haven't found any useful news...... Although most of the map has been lit up by Zhou Yuan, it is obvious that it is in vain to find any useful information. Seeing that the auction was about to start, Zhou Yuan hurriedly returned to his room, leaning on the sofa and listening intently to the message from Mikoto Misaka.
Moreover, from the beginning of the auction, all bodyguards and other personnel are forbidden to leave their break rooms. Moreover, although there is no monitoring equipment in the smoking room, there is a device in each lounge, so Zhou Yuan can only lean in the lounge.
You can't blatantly violate other people's rules, right? In that case, Zhou Yuan will be fresh if he is not arrested.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's eight o'clock sharp, and this auction starts on time! As you know, the owner of this auction is a new organization that has emerged all over the world, and the black claw forces that pursue a balance between people, intelligent machines, and projection. Naturally, the fact that you received an invitation from Blackclaw is a testament not only to the strength of all of you, but also to the strength of Blackclaw - well, without further ado, this auction starts now! I guess you can't wait...... In that case, let's put the first lot in the auction right away!"
After a slight pause, the voice of the host of the auction hall came from Zhou Yuan's headphones again.
"I think you all know this thing now. This item was carefully prepared by the Black Claw Organization and sold as the first lot in this auction...... There are ten pieces in total, all of which are produced by the Fisca Academy in the name of "order" - the inner core of the city! As we all know, this core has a super-powerful almost lossless energy conversion function, and can order energy. So, I don't need to say more about the role of this kernel, right? The starting price is 5 million standard common currency, please bid!
Okay...... I worked hard to get one, and Black Claw TM actually took ten out at once and sold it?
Moreover, although the production of the urban core is small, it can be obtained in less than a month if you make an appointment with the Fisca Academy. Although this thing was taken out a lot at once, it was not a scarce or scarce thing on the market, that is, expensive enough, but not rare enough. Such an item is also a good choice to start this auction.
However, most people are waiting for the auction item to follow, and with the reasons mentioned above, this thing is estimated to be less than half the price of the City Kernel sold by Fisca Academy...... Black Claw directly took out ten city cores this time, and it was really bloody......
But I haven't heard of any of the cities under Blackclaw's control? In other words, the cores of these cities were not removed from the city by Blackclaw, but purchased from the Fisca Academy. Black Claw is a nascent organization, and public opinion is indeed very good, and its strength is quite strong, but where did it come from? This underground auction venue can also be said to be occupied by Black Claw, after all, such a huge underground space cannot be built in a short period of time. However, you can just take out ten cores......
Considering the Black Lily incident again, think about it...... The Blackclaw organization may have existed for a much longer period than Zhou Yuan, or even the rest of Overwatch believed.
However, the inner core of the city is of little use. In the energy conversion part, Dr. Winston's improved energy converter is much more efficient than the general-purpose core made by the Fisca Institute, and in the intelligent part...... Who could compare to Athena......, who was a member of Overwatch? The rules of Overwatch are that only those who have the memories of the previous world can become the core members of Overwatch.
Athena is a core member of Overwatch, and her authority is even higher than that of Chief Morrison. How could an intelligent being who had been in the previous world, that is, an intelligent machine that had been a human being, have intelligence that surpassed Athena? Of course, the same is true of Master Zenyata. It's just that Master Zenyata is, after all, an individual-type intelligent AI, and his computing power is still far lower than that of Athena.
It was during this time that the final results were already in. After the price reaches 40 million standard common currency, there is no way to continue to rise. Indeed, the price, as Zhou Yuan had guessed, did not reach the price of the city kernel sold by the Fisca Academy, which was half of the 100 million standard common currency.
Even if this thing is for personal use, just one piece is enough. Buying so many cores at once is not only useless, but it's not very easy to get rid of, and it takes up capital, which leads to the current situation - that is, it can't be sold at all.
Of course, Anna's seniors are also quite calm. I can hear what happened over there - Anna's predecessor didn't even come up with a price at all, and just ignored this thing.
"Alright, now for the next lot. The auction item is a weapon left behind by a projection that has gone completely berserk, determined to be uncommunicative, and extremely dangerous. This weapon seems to have an incredible power attached to it, not only is it extremely sharp, but it can also increase the strength of some users themselves - this is this katana! According to our tests, when this katana is handed over to our personnel, it can increase their strength by about 20% on average, which is a rare item brought by projection!"
It's useless. Although it is a weapon brought by the projection...... But it is estimated that the attributes are similar to the rare weapons in the dungeons and warriors, and they may not be as good as the rare weapons, and the 20% increase in strength is not very sufficient......
