Chapter 45: Secret Auction
It was completely dark, but the city was still full of light.
Many of the shops that are still in business are lit up, and the signs of bars and brothels are even more neon-lit, and you can know the prosperity of the city just by looking at the lights at night.
Britney's arranger led Chi Hua and Yi Fengleng to a single-family villa with a red lantern hanging in front of the gate in the north corner of the city. The visitor just shook the token in his hand, and the gatekeeper put the two of them in and gave them each a mask, and the person who led the way sent it but did not follow up.
This secret auction of the Illuminati was well thought out, and a single mask solved a lot of unnecessary trouble. After the apocalypse, there are many unsolved cases without owners, many camps have been slaughtered overnight, and even the joining forces of the Bright Alliance have a lot of dirty things that stab each other in the back and forget their righteousness, and once they are taken out, they know who did them.
Chi Hua and the others were ushered into the living room of the villa by a waiter waiting on the side. The decorative fireplace in the living room was pushed to the side, and a downward staircase appeared in the original fireplace. Going downstairs, the stairs turned two corners, and a larger underground space than the upstairs living room appeared, which was the auction venue for today.
In the middle of the auction hall, a circular wooden platform of about five square meters has been erected, and two circles of single-seater sofas are placed around the platform, which can seat about 40 people. This arrangement does not deliberately divide the level of guests, and allows everyone who participates in the auction to see the lots.
On the walls on both sides were all kinds of strange torture instruments, many of which still had blood stains on them and dried up dark red. It seems that the owner of the villa is only temporarily using this place as a venue for the auction today, and there are other uses in normal times.
There were already more than 20 people sitting in the auction hall, and Chi Hua and the others did not deliberately look for Britney, but randomly found two empty sofas in the second circle and sat down.
From time to time, some people were still introduced to the auction hall by waiters, and Chi Hua took this opportunity to start looking at the people participating in the auction.
He first recognized Kevin. Astor, he was the only one in the audience who didn't wear a mask. Then he saw Donna again. Collins, Donna wears a mask, but that iconic red hair gives away her identity. Yi Fengleng also recognized Britney from her figure. Onassis, Britney didn't greet anyone, but found a random seat and sat down.
After about half an hour of waiting, all the seats in the auction hall were full. The basement door was also locked from the inside, and no one could leave early until the auction ended.
Kevin. Astor walked to the wooden platform in the middle of the venue, smiled and waved to the people around him, "Friends, thank you for coming to today's secret auction. Again, I need to stress the rules, this auction will only accept offers for the Evolutionary Crystal Nucleus, of course, bartering can be done if both parties agree. As the organizer, we will charge a commission for one crystal nucleus for each lot, regardless of its value, and no one is allowed to disclose the news of the auction after the auction is over, otherwise they will be jointly retaliated against by several of our special envoys of light. ”
Kevin deliberately paused, and when he saw that no one objected, he continued: "The auction is now officially open. As the host of this auction, I provided the first lot. ”
Kevin waved his hand, and the four waiters who had been waiting on the side carried a huge iron cage placed in the corner to the platform. A black cloth covered the iron cage tightly. Kevin grabbed the corner of the black cloth and pulled it hard, and there was an exclamation at the scene, and there were two naked girls in the cage, and the two girls who looked exactly the same hugged each other and squatted in the cage shivering.
Kevin was pleased with the exclamation from the sidelines, "Stand up and take a spin." ”
Hearing Kevin's order, the two girls who were originally squatting in the cage stood up reflexively, and then spun around in place to show their bodies* to everyone present. The girl is only fifteen or sixteen years old, but her body has developed a convex place that should be convex and concave where it should be, and a slightly green little face can arouse a man's desire to conquer.
"The twin sisters are both evolutionaries and virgins, with prices starting at four crystal nuclei, and we can give them a free * if we need them."
Kevin finished speaking, followed by a burst of men's laughter. Although these two girls are evolutionaries, they must not expect any combat power, otherwise Kevin will not take them out and sell them, and buying them back is nothing more than a high-level plaything for the leader of the big camp.
But some people just like this tune, and after Kevin finished speaking, someone immediately shouted for four crystal nuclei.
"Four crystal nuclei, has anyone raised the price?" Kevin shouted three times in a row, but no one raised the price again. The vast majority of the gang and camp leaders present were still very sensible, and there were still a few who were willing to use the four crystal nuclei to buy playthings for their own enjoyment. In the end, the twin girls were sold for four crystal nuclei.
Although it was a transaction at the reserve price, Kevin was still very satisfied, after all, his cost was only two evolution reagents, and in his eyes, the girl itself had no cost, and he could catch as much as he wanted.
After Kevin made a start, he was followed by a tall man. The big man pulled out a slightly curved gray blade from his back, which seemed to be the sharp forelimbs of some kind of mutant animal. Dahan asked the waiter on the side to help find a steel plate nearly one centimeter thick, and the gray blade slashed at the steel plate, and the entire steel plate was neatly divided into two.
The people below were amazed again, and even Chi Hua was nodding slightly, the sharpness of this blade was almost not under the Great Xia Dragon Bird Knife. Although this blade is taken from the body of mutant animals, it is also quite rare, although humans have hunted a lot of mutant animals after the end of the world, there are not many good materials that can really be used, and some of them can't even eat meat, like the first mutant spider hunted by Chi Hua.
Dahan is also quite complacent, and directly starts the price of two crystal nuclei.
For some transformational evolutionaries, with this blade, it can indeed multiply its combat power. Immediately, someone shouted the price, and the voice of the person who shouted the price fell, and immediately someone added three crystal nuclei. After three pieces, no matter how the big man on the stage shouted, no one raised the price anymore. After all, everyone has an account in their hearts, and with the same amount of crystal nuclei, they will increase their combat power by taking it themselves or buying foreign objects to increase their combat power.
Although Dahan was not very satisfied, he had to step down in a huff.
The third man on the stage carried a huge box, and when he arrived on the stage, he opened the box and took out a piece of mechanical parts from it and assembled them directly on the stage, and put one on his body after each piece was loaded, and after five minutes, everyone present understood that it was the most advanced set of individual exoskeleton armor before the end of the world!
After the man finished wearing the whole thing, he looked like a mechanical warrior, and began to show the power of individual armor on the stage, and after the display, the price directly started with three crystal nuclei.
But the result embarrassed the man, no one on the scene bid, and the man shouted several times and still no one bid. The first unsold lot appeared.
In fact, the reason for the failure is very simple, although the individual exoskeleton armor that relies on electricity can greatly increase the user's strength, weight and endurance, but this is only helpful for ordinary soldiers, compared to heavy exoskeleton armor, the evolutionary hopes to directly increase their own strength and speed.
The auction continued, and one by one the lots were displayed on the stage. Most of them are blades and armor made of special materials from mutant animals, and there are also a few pre-apocalyptic weapons with the latest technology, such as someone actually took out a portable laser gun.
During this period, Chi Hua and Yi Fengleng did not make a single move, in terms of materials, the Doomsday Phoenix City had various materials taken from the second-order bear king, and the high-tech weapon Chi Hua even thought that it would not play a role in any matter if it was used alone.
Everyone who participated in the auction had to prepare the lot, and it was Chi Hua's turn. Chi Hua motioned for Yi Feng to go cold, but he was still worried about being recognized by Kevin or Donna.
Yi Fengleng came to the stage and shook off a small lava python scale armor directly on the stage. There is nothing unusual about the red and black scale armor in appearance, and there are similar scale armors made from the fur of mutant animals that have been shown before, and many men are immediately deflated when they see the size.
"Someone with a gun, help shoot a few shots at this scale armor."
The evolutionaries who participated in the meeting were all leaders of a side that had been strengthened by many abilities, and ordinary guns no longer meant anything to them, and none of the more than forty people present had guns. In the end, Kevin asked one of the waiters to go upstairs and get a pistol down.
After a shuttle of bullets at close range, only a few shallow white spots were left on the scale armor. The protection of the scale armor was not bad, but it did not surprise everyone present too much, because this was only a necessary ability that a scale armor should have.
"Somebody's a fire-controlling ability to help shoot a few fireballs at this scale."
Someone made a mistake, and before Yi Fengleng's words fell, a huge fireball the size of a human head suddenly shot towards Yi Fengleng's face. Yi Fengleng blocked the scale armor in front of him, and the fireball exploded on the scale armor, scattering sparks and splashing all over the ground.
Yi Fengleng moved the scale armor away from the front, the surface of the scale armor was already jet black, and when he gently wiped the cloth on the surface of the scale armor, the scale armor was as bright as new, and there was no trace of scorching at all.
The people in the audience were finally moved this time, the scale armor that can protect against bullets and ability attacks at the same time should be regarded as a treasure, which is equivalent to an extra life on the battlefield, and people have begun to look forward to Yi Fengleng's starting price.
Easy air-cooled direct starting price of five crystal nuclei!
The audience was amazed, feeling that Yi Fengleng was a little lion opened his mouth, although this thing is good, it is not worth five crystal nuclei, isn't it safer to have these five crystal nuclei to directly create five evolutionaries to guard by your side day and night?
Yi Fengleng was indeed opening his mouth widely, because he didn't want to sell it at all, and this scale armor was originally intended to be given to Britney.
Just when everyone thought that this scale armor would be slapped, a soft female voice suddenly sounded, "Five crystal nuclei, I want it!" ”
Yi Feng looked for prestige, and couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly, it was Britney who made the bid.
