Chapter 381: Yoda's Eye of the Storm
Green Wing's eyes couldn't help but be a little moist, and his body leaned towards Zhang Fan. Dark Sakura didn't quite understand, but she also obediently snuggled up to Zhang Fan's side, for her, this was a very beautiful thing.
The three of them were enjoying a romantic time in the Pacific Ocean in the morning light, but Akon sent an untimely message. It turned out that the organizers sent out a catalogue of the auction. probably felt that the on-site trading was a little lively, and launched its own products in a timely manner, reminding everyone not to spend all the merit value, and the good show is still to come. Akon passed a copy, and there were a lot of things.
Zhang Fan is engaged in collecting, naturally accustomed to this kind of catalogue, unexpectedly this catalogue is very professional, thick and large, in Chinese, English, Japanese, Russian, Arabic and other languages with the most populous languages to make prop annotations. And the types of props are also classified, melee class, ranged combat class, armor class, law class, support class......
"It's not expensive!" Green Wing was startled when he saw it, it was about the same price as standard equipment.
"The auction is all like this, and the low price is set very low," Zhang Fan said with a smile, "As soon as the price is increased, it will go up, and the owner and the organizer will increase the price themselves." "He's familiar with the process, and that's how the price of collectibles is inflated.
"Isn't that going to be expensive?" Greenwing was a little deflated.
"Of course, it's all props that are upgraded in the scene through special circumstances. It's like Akon's 'Huangquan Ghost Record', how much merit value do you say is it? Zhang Fan said with a smile, "Actually, you see, they have pointed out that they can apply with the organizer and exchange them for props of comparable value, and no one has so much spare money, mainly to change equipment." However, I think that our blue-green supply items should be hard currency, and you can exchange them for some haode props, no problem. β
"Then we'll send it!" Green Wing was happy, pointed to a delicate dark gold arm shield, as if an ordinary girl had taken a fancy to a piece of jewelry, and shouted coquettishly: "I want this!" Dark Sakura, you can pick one too. β
Dizzy, Zhang Fan feels a little like taking his girlfriend and going to a shopping mall in reality......
"Actually, it's not in a hurry, I think that after Shijie comes back, there will be a party, and it's not too late to buy it at that time......," Zhang Fan said.
Akon disagreed, "I'm afraid the price will be high at the next rally." Because everyone is about to enter the scene, they are all anxious to need life-saving equipment, and they don't care about merit value. And this time, everyone has just come out, the supply of equipment is relatively sufficient, and the price will be a little lower. β
That's right, the three of them took stock of their props and made a list of the equipment they needed, and Akon estimated it, and was startled, it was not enough to sell himself.
"Hey, I wonder if those gold and silver treasures can be exchanged for props?" Zhang Fan looked at the list of props needed, and thought that Akon had robbed the Emperor's treasury and collected a lot of treasures, and sighed unconsciously.
"I think it should be possible, but I don't know the exchange value. There must be someone among these high-ranking vows who knows the value of these gold and silver goods. You can directly buy important people in the scene and exchange for props, who doesn't like such an important item? In the scene, it's even easier to use than merit points. However, judging from the amount of exchange we have in the scene, don't look at the amount we have collected now, if we really want to exchange for high-level props, it is really useless. Akon said with a smile.
"Besides, you've been around the market for most of the day, and have you seen anything good?" Zhang Fan asked.
"To be honest, most of them are not as good as those in the catalogue, but the price is relatively cheap. There are also a few good things, probably because I was afraid of earning intermediary fees for the organizers, so I didn't take them for auction, but the price was not low! Akon immediately came up, "There's a dark gold bracer, which is pretty good!" With a shining skill, it is specially designed to dazzle the opponent's eyes when attacking, and the defense is also very high, and the green wing is very suitable. It's just ridiculously expensive! And a pair of pale green boots, which can actually teleport ......"
"Forget the boots, Yoda makes leather armor, it's all a suit with boots, and the bracers can be taken a look......" Zhang Fan was immediately tempted when he heard that Green Wing was easy to use.
"Hey, if I used it well, you wouldn't be so energetic."
"You're still thinking about this, like a. Green Wing will be weakened in the next scene, so you have to arm her fully, or she will be very dangerous! Let's go and take a look......" Zhang Fan pulled him to the restaurant.
"It's all closed, no hurry. Besides, it's so expensive, no one else can buy it. After the auction, we went to look for it alone, and it is estimated that he is not in a hurry to sell, but is feeling the market. Akon stopped him.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Because of the catalogue, the volume of transactions in the bazaar has plummeted. The organizers are very cunning, the low prices of the auction on the catalogue are very low, which makes people feel that there is a cheap choice, and deliberately does not annotate the finale of several props, and the three zuihou also make a black shadow as a gimmick, and they can't even see their true faces, so that everyone is worried about it, and they don't dare to spend money indiscriminately.
The auction was held at noon on the third day, and hundreds of vow-bearers received their number plates and entered the restaurant in advance. It was a luncheon with a lot of dishes, and everyone was talking about the props that were being auctioned while eating. The auctioneer was dressed very formally today, and every time he was at this time, he felt like he was back in reality. The small auction hammer turned between his fingers, and he proudly calculated the considerable income after this auction.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Everyone, please be quiet, everyone's long-awaited feast of props has begun, and let's welcome the main hammer of this auction, Richardβ" The host introduced the auctioneer. Our Mr. Richa, with a professional smile, came on the field, nodding his head around very gracefully, and performing aristocratic courtesy. Then he motioned to his assistant to start the auction of the first item.
ββ¦β¦ It's a great dark gold shield, and if you get it, you'll get a second life! It's so cheap and so low that I can't help but want to bid...... The low price is 45,000 merit points, and you must know that the equipment upgraded by the Taoist alchemy pawnshop costs 44,000 merit points! This item is a combination of at least three or more pieces of excellent equipment! A 1,000 ...... increase each time Oh, that gentleman made a bid......" Richard hurriedly clicked the number plate on the field, "Forty-five thousand for the first time...... haode, someone has raised the price, forty-six thousand! Ah, forty-seven thousand! 48,000 ......" the auctioneer got busy.
Zhang Fan sighed, it seems that his team's money is really not enough. The merit value of the three people is all added, and it seems that there are more than 100,000 merit points, and they can't shoot any of them. It seems that my team is going to sell a few things that are not commonly used first, or they can only be exchanged. However, the valuation of the exchange props may be relatively low.
When the bidding reached the remaining two vows, a different situation occurred from the real Shijie, and the two quoted the same price and did not increase the price again. It seems that this is what both sides agreed to settle privately.
"Okay, since the two of you are stingy, please go to the sidelines to discuss." Richard probably encounters this kind of thing very often, and immediately prepares the next lot, but there is a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
Zhang Fan was also surprised that there was really such an unspoken set of rules in the auction in the hometown of the precept holders. This looks like it's going to be a fight! The ring-bearers on the field didn't care, it seemed that this was a common thing. Some presumably knew two bidders, raised their glasses to greet them, or patted them on the shoulder in encouragement.
The auction lasted until late at night, with most lots being sold and very few unsold. In this respect, the auctioneer named Richa is really powerful, and the auction organization is also very right. Secondly, the unspoken rule of using duels to determine the ownership of lots also saves a lot of irrational bidding for the vow-holders, so there are more people willing to bid, making the transaction rate very high. On several occasions, a group of bidders tacitly agreed to come up with the same price, and the auctioneer asked three times in a row, and when no one followed, they went to the deck, and I don't know how so many of them could negotiate.
And Akon went backstage to learn about the valuation of the merit value of the props, which is still quite reasonable. As with the real-life shijie, an intermediary fee of 8% to 10% is charged. However, Zhang Fan's team did not make a move, these props are indeed very strong, but the function is similar to that made by Yoda on his body, and some are the same as those made by Yoda, which are made of the alchemy materials of the demon beasts in the scene. Although there are a little stronger, the price is really unbearable, for a full-time alchemist like Zhang Fan Aken, who is used to picking up cheap ones, the cost performance is almost cheap.
A batch of finale lots from Zuihou came on, and as soon as the organizers announced the data, the audience exclaimed! Zhang Fan Aken was also surprised that among these items, there were props similar to Aken's 'Huangquan Ghost Record'. Of course, it's much worse than 'Huangquan Ghost Record'. The price is amazing, astronomical!
ββ¦β¦ Obediently, that 'Iron Wall Hidden Fortress' is an excellent prop for positional warfare! β
"There is also a concealment function, which can be used in the wild......"
ββ¦β¦ That light armored car is also very powerful, much more useful than the 'undead truck' that was shot earlier! β
"One is aggressive, the other is transport, how can it be compared to ......"
ββ¦β¦ That 'eye of the storm' anti-materiel sniper rifle can actually destroy heavy fortifications! Is that still a gun? It's a cannon! Siege warfare can come in handy! It's so much better than the sniper rifle in front! β
"I just don't know what will happen if I shoot that 'Iron Wall Dark Castle', hehe......"
"After all, it is used by individual soldiers, and it can have such power, which is stronger than that kind of field artillery and siege engine, it does not take up space, and it is also hidden......"
"That machete is really ugly, but I don't even know the runes on it...... and that ring, it hasn't entered the rating yet, it's so powerful......"
For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the restaurant, and some anxious precept holders rushed to the front of the stage.
However, these equipment are still not very attractive to Zhang Fan's team, because there are relevant props in the team, and it makes no sense to change or add them. Zhang Fan only found out at this time that the equipment in his hand was still relatively complete, although these lots were very good, but the cost performance was not high, and there was really no need to waste merit value. However, it seems that the 'Eye of the Storm' anti-weapon gun is good, but unfortunately no one in the team uses it.
At this time, Yoda came over, and he actually wanted to borrow Zhang Fan's auction number, wanting to auction off the 'eye of the storm'. "Master, that 'eye of the storm' is very useful, I'll pay for it." Yoda had a big tone, could it be that he had been with the sloppy Taoist for a few days, and his net worth had already been able to win the finale of this auction?
The audience fell into a frenzy, and the 'Iron Wall Castle' was the most fiercely contested, this thing was rare and required a specific large basic defense item as a foundation for upgrading, and secondly, battlefield survival was still the first goal of these high-level ring holders. Only by living can we have greater gains. Moreover, this prop can accommodate a team of more than five people and less than ten people, and almost all the teams of high-level vow-bearers present can be used. It's much more practical than 'Huangquan Ghost Record'. Any occasion! If there was such an item when Talas was guarding the city gates......
When it was the 'eye of the storm', there were relatively few vow-bearers following the price. Because this kind of offensive weapon is the most numerous, although it may be relatively bulky, or a little less powerful, but the combat requirements are fully satisfied. There's no need to waste precious merit points and high-level items. Willis chased it all the way, and it seems that it has participated in auctions before, and it is familiar with it. Zuihou was left with a precept holder who followed the price and gestured, meaning to settle it off the court. The goblin was far away, gritting his teeth and still insisting. No matter how hard its force is with others, it can only rely on financial strength to crush its opponents. But Greenwing stopped it, nodding at the Ring Bearer over there. The other party was visibly relieved.
There is no suspense about the ending on the deck, and the Green Wing, which has three basic stat bonuses to 300, is likely to be the highest in this party! Although the opponent is not weak, he is still a defensive mage who restrains the martial artist, but before the absolute gap, he is broken by the green wing at the strongest point! That 'sword forehead spear' is not a joke, it specializes in breaking defenses!
"Friend, if you can give us that 'eye of the storm', we will give you two special props for martial artists, each of which is definitely not weaker than that 'eye of the storm'!" The Mage's teammates are ranged possession-type Ring Bearers and are in need of the Anti-Materiel Sniper Rifle.
Greenwing was naturally a little moved, and looked back at the goblin, and Yoda shook her head resolutely. Green Wing sighed and took Yoda back to pay. Yoda didn't even have half a merit point, but it took out a broken Shikigami puppet. That's actually fine! You must know that these puppet gods are all rune arrays carved by Eternal Sight Zhenai, and they can't be cracked at all!
Even the sloppy Taoist can only appreciate and figure out the mystery of Solomon's seal, and cannot untie the dead knot that these puppets cannot control after the loss of their master! According to the Taoist people's words, there is a dead circuit of the rune array designed here, and the spell can be solved by finding a way, but it also requires the control code of Eternal Sada himself, and this password is the blood of Eternal Sada himself when he helped him make these puppets. Nagami Zhenai has long been deified, and he may no longer have the key to deciphering the secret.
As a result, these golems are useless and can only recover a little material. Most of the golem materials are depicted with dense runes that cannot be utilized, as new runes cannot be drawn. Akon collected so many puppets, and the goblin himself was still the maker, and he only collected some leftovers carefully, although there were a lot, but he couldn't piece together a large puppet! For this, Akon was still uncomfortable for a long time. Later, Yoda borrowed from those small one-wheeled puppets and the five-element god of eternal chastity, and found that the collected materials could be used to make a miniature version of the one-wheeled five-element god. I have a little balance in my heart.
Is it possible to take this useless broken god now and exchange it for a superb prop? The answer is, yes! And this Shikigami is also very popular! For no other reason, what is the most important thing in the 21st century besides character? It's knowledge! This large-scale god's body is carved with rune arrays, although it is incomplete, and the goblins have deliberately damaged the key positions, but it is enough for knowledge-type ring-holders to take a keen interest in these sophisticated rune arrays!
You must know that if you can live to become a high-level precept holder, if you don't have such super luck as Zhang Fan, you must have a sophisticated mind, just like Aken. Maybe I bought this badly damaged Shikigami and couldn't copy one, but maybe I could be inspired by the alchemy skills and other props that made it, and this is also the most precious treasure left by Nagami Sada! These talismans are even a little appreciative of the sloppy Daoist Daoist alchemy!
The appraisal department of the organizer estimated the value of the remnant rune array of this broken god, and actually found that in addition to giving the 'eye of the storm' to Yoda, he also had to give him more than 100,000 merit points! That's the value of knowledge! This is the culmination of the Japanese Onmyoji and King Solomon's rune formation! Therefore, the organizers of the rally persuaded Yoda to choose a prop that was not auctioned.
The goblin thanked Greenwing for giving her the beautiful dark gold arm shield. The unsuccessful auction of this prop is not because it is too bad, but because it is too expensive! Green Wing did a good deed, and he got what he wanted, but it saved Zhang Fan a lot of money.
Zuihou's finale prop is a crystal ball, and this prop has not entered the rating system, so it can predict the future in a limited way. It's a lot of money! And it has high intellectual requirements for users! This prop seems to be a bit chicken, because everyone has experienced historical wars, as long as you carefully read the relevant historical materials, it is not difficult to predict, so what use will this crystal ball that seems to have a very good skill? However, the scene of on-site bidding seems to be relatively intense, although the number of people is not large, but the price is very tight. Moreover, Zhang Fan found that most of them were relatively low-key-looking teams of ring-bearers bidding.
"This is used in skirmishes, and the helpers can be of great help to the fighters in the front of the fierce confrontation!" Akon analyzed that he could use this item himself.
"Shall we bid too?" Zhang Fan asked.
Akon shook his head a little hesitantly, and then looked at Zhang Fan and smiled reluctantly: "Then I will rely on this prop to make judgments in the future, which will reduce my ability to calculate......" But it seems that he still wants to get this prop, but there is a voice in his heart that tells him not to do this, and he struggles very much.
Zhang Fan saw it and patted him on the shoulder, "Your own ability is the most important, and at this point, we are not as good as Green Wing." β
Patigul also seems to be bidding......
