Chapter 81: The Final Auction
The battle ended at the forty-eighth minute.
When the last lead singer was decapitated and lay in a pool of blood, the mission of the Trevank Fortress was finally completed.
The entire fortress was littered with corpses, and the blood pooled into a river.
This is the largest, most difficult, most dangerous and most costly battle that Shen Yi has experienced since he entered the city.
More than 70 soldiers were killed or wounded, including more than 10 elite soldiers, of which more than 60 occurred when intercepting the guards on the west side, and the entire interception battle actually took less than ten minutes. Deputy battalion commander Ralph died on the spot in order to save Zhou Yiyu.
The adventurers' side also paid a heavy price in blood, with six adventurers dying in the battle. One of them is a member of the South China Sea team and two members of the wind forest team. The total number of deaths was ten - Ivy saved four people, one of whom died again shortly after being revived by Ivy.
The entire war lasted sixteen days, killing 412 Church Priests, 121 Hell Darkers, 412 Scarlet Skull Mages, 412 Berserkers, 84 Heal Sacrifices, 84 Night Kings, 84 Flesh Hunters, 84 Scarabs, 84 Singers, 20 Ghost Knights, and 3 Legion Commanders, totaling 1,800.
Among them, Shen Yi killed 38 healing priests, 334 church priests, 172 blood skeleton mages, three flesh hunters, four night kings, four berserkers and twelve ghost knights, in addition to his summoning troops and T1000 pretending to be a fat man to kill more than thirty Hell Hidden Crows and a small number of other monsters, which made him alone occupy more than one-third of the contribution, but the share of T1000 that is considered fat will not be counted on his head.
In addition to him, the highest contribution was Zhou Yiyu, who withstood the attack of a large number of guards on the Western Front with his summoned troops, and also created good conditions for the power of the Vulcan Cannon.
In contrast, Hong Lang's contribution was average - he had no time to deal with those hell monsters because he was alone against two corps commanders, and the death of the commander was not counted in the combat contribution due to the bounty points, which made it no wonder that he was so angry at An Zong and the others for their peach-picking behavior.
In this battle, the Broken Blade team received 46 percent of the contribution, an average of 7.66 percent per person, and the others averaged 3 percent, of which the Wind Forest team had six remaining players and only received 18.4 percent of the contribution, and the South China Sea team had four remaining players with 11.6 percent of the contribution. The four members of the Dragon Tooth team received eleven percent of the contribution, and as for the scattered adventurers, except for Luo Sheng, Ivy, Scarface and the Chang family brothers, there were only three left.
These scattered people were originally weaker, and they naturally did not support them when they encountered a bitter battle. But most importantly, they don't focus on cooperation as much as teamwork, and they lack tacit understanding. Shen Yi specially put Luo Sheng, Ai Wei and the Chang family brothers together, and repeatedly told the Chang brothers to protect more and attack less, and he would make up for all the losses, so he could ensure that he would not lose important manpower, and for others, he couldn't take care of so much.
There has to be cannon fodder, right?
In addition to the three commanders, Ghost Knight gives three pieces of jade, a knight's spear, a healing sacrifice gives a ranged healing scroll, the lead singer gives a sonic group attack scroll, the flesh hunter gives a passive skill scroll of archery with range, and the King of the Night gives a skill combination scroll.
As for the three archons, in addition to the six C-level skill enhancement scrolls, Finger of Fire gives a bottle of Fire Enhancement Potion, which can increase the power of fire attacks, including abilities. Shen Yi noticed that when she saw this bottle of potion, Ambella was obviously moved. The Hand of Evil gives a conversion token. Locking a melee skill with this item converts it into a ranged skill with the same power, limited to C-level and below. When a skill level increases, the power increase is calculated based on the ranged skill. In the end, Ice Fist Teucer gave three rune stones very stingy, but at this time, Shen Yi was no longer interested in this thing.
After the battle, there was no auction right away.
The battlefield of the Trevank Fortress still needs to be cleaned, and everyone must also pay tribute to their comrades and soothe their broken hearts. Although we all know that death is the final destination in this world, when it does come, people will still feel pain and sorrow.
Call upon the soldiers to take on the task of collecting the corpses once again.
They dug a pit and buried the dead.
At that time, Shen Yi thought: If this world is a world created by the city, then after they leave, everything here will disappear?
And those who were once real?
He didn't know the answer, and for a moment he fell into deep confusion and thought.
Until King Kong came and whispered into his ear:
"Convert tokens to me. ”
Shen Yi suddenly woke up.
"For heavy blows?" Shen Yi instinctively reacted.
"Yes. King Kong nodded: "It must be very cool to use this after you are promoted to the C level." ”
"Yes, but we have to calculate their earnings first. ”
"Forget it. King Kong replied: "The Wind Forest team contributed 552 points, but they died and don't know how many points they lost, but no matter what, his available assets can't exceed 5,000 points." There's no way he's going to give up the skill improvement scroll, as long as he buys one, their whole team won't be able to run. ”
"What about the South Sea team?"
"348 points to contribute points, the same death, the disposable amount should still be kept at about 18,000 points, at least let her buy four to be insured. But then we don't have anything to buy. ”
"I'll go and say hello to Luo Sheng and them later, and raise the price of that bottle of flame enhancement potion, she will ask for it, it will be very useful to her. Then push the healing scrolls and rune stones to her side, and inform those few, no matter what price she offers, let her take it. As for Zong Tang's side, they definitely want that knight spear, and there is an archer in the Wind Forest team, and the archery scroll will not be missed, and the C-level skill scroll does not need to be left to him, as long as he makes a price, we will grab it, and if he can't grab it, he can only buy something else...... You'll be in charge of the auction, so remember to get the auction ordered, starting with two C-rank skill scrolls, followed by fire potions, healing scrolls, and runestones. Let's squeeze the woman out first, and then shoot two C-level skill scrolls, and when the four are over, Zong Tang can't get one, he will give up completely, and then throw out the knight's spear and the bow scroll, he will definitely ask for it. ”
"But the woman wasn't interested in runestones. ”
"So when I shoot rune stones, I will first ask for a low price of 1,000 and 3 rune stones. Although this woman is smart, she has a small heart and a dislike for us, so she will definitely raise the price. When the time comes, you'll be able to make a decision faster......"
King Kong: "......"
He thought for a moment, nodded and said, "I'll take care of it." ”
Commanded to leave.
As soon as Jin left, the Chang brothers came over again.
They said to Shen Yi with a straight face: "That skill combination scroll our brother wants." ”
Skill combination scroll is to release two identical skills together, so that the power increases. It does not belong to a single skill, but directly binds two identical skills of two adventurers.
Since no one of the current adventurers has the same skill, especially the team is unlikely to let two people learn the same skill, this scroll is good, but it has no effect on improving the current strength.
The Chang brothers want this scroll, so naturally they have a reason.
Chang Zui said: "Our joint skills are the same skills. Originally, it was two separate C-rank charging moves, which stun the target for 1 second and dealt 140 damage. As a result, when we exercised our skills, we found that if two people collide with the same target from opposite directions, when the time is right, the stun time can be superimposed, or even further increased on this basis. ”
Chang Xing: "So we have been practicing this kind of cooperation, but I didn't expect that in the process, the skills would mutate." However, this mutation does not directly increase its power, but only loses a layer of defense weakening, because when two identical skills affect the same target at the same time, the city counts it as one skill. ”
Shen Yi understood: "No wonder you can inflict nearly two hundred points of damage on King Kong with one blow...... If you have this scroll, you should be able to further increase the power of your combo. ”
"That's right. ”
"Okay, I'll buy it for you. Shen Yi readily agreed: "I gave it to you." ”
The Chang brothers are overjoyed.
The reason why they asked Shen Yi to help them buy it was not that they lacked the money, but that it was best to get Shen Yi's consent to do it. Although they didn't know what Shen Yi wanted to do, the two brothers were not stupid, and from Shen Yi's previous instructions, they knew that he had always calculated about the two teams of Fenglin and Nanhai. Buying the skill combination scroll without his consent would most likely disrupt Shen Yi's plan. These two brothers are very good at being people, and they know that the person who can't be offended here is Shen Yi, so they came up to say hello first.
They didn't expect Shen Yi to be so generous, and he agreed to buy it directly and give it to them.
Half an hour later, all the dead were buried, and everyone was ready for an auction. At this moment, Huang Tianyang suddenly stood up: "You guys auction, we won't participate in this auction." ”
Saying that, the four members of the Dragon Tooth Team left one after another.
This confuses everyone and doesn't know what's going on.
Shen Yi made a color at Scarface in the distance, and Scarface stood up knowingly: "I won't participate in this auction either." ”
As he spoke, he left the venue and walked past Shen Yi, and said in a low voice, "Leave me a C-level skill scroll." ”
"No problem. Shen Yi replied softly.
Scarface then followed the four members of the Dragon's Tooth team away.
This incident made everyone baffled, and it took a while to come back to their senses.
Ambella looked at the crowd and said with a gloomy face, "Is there anyone else leaving?"
Seeing that no one wanted to leave, King Kong said, "If it's okay, let's get started." ”
Ambella suddenly said, "I have one more thing." ”
King Kong was stunned: "What's the matter with you?"
Ambella smiled, "It's about a piece of jade that the Broken Blades team used up." According to the agreement, all battle harvests should be auctioned after the battle. The Broken Blades team violated the rules by using a piece without authorization during the battle, which was clearly inappropriate. I suggest that the used jade be put into the auction for a valuation auction. ”
The faces of everyone in the Broken Blades team sank at the same time.
It's clear that Ambella is going to take the opportunity to rip off money.
The jade has been used by the flood waves, and the auction of the used things means that it is destined to be bought only by the Broken Blade team. However, due to the nature of the auction, Ambella could have made a crazy bid for this non-existent jade. Even if she opened 100,000 points, the Broken Blade team could only grit their teeth and bear it.
To Shen Yi's annoyance, this proposal was actually approved by Zong Tang.
Speaking of which, Shen Yi is certainly calculating everyone, but An Zong and the others are good people. The cooperation between adventurers is originally intrigued, and when there is a strong enemy in front of them, everyone can work together, but when the powerful enemy no longer exists, internal contradictions are immediately apparent.
Now that the fifth mission has caused heavy casualties, neither the Wind Forest team nor the South China Sea team is interested in fighting the Hate Cage again, and the first and second missions are obviously the easiest tasks, even if there is no Broken Blade team, the two teams can easily solve it by asking themselves.
Therefore, on the issue of dividing the spoils at this moment, the two teams stood together for the first time to counter the aggressiveness of the Broken Blade team.
In this regard, Shen Yi said: "If you want to count that piece of jade, you can also count it, the ghost knight has a total of three pieces, everyone shoots two pieces first, and the used one is calculated as the average price, and I will distribute it to everyone in proportion." ”
Ambella sneered: "This is not appropriate, is it? What if I suddenly become interested in that piece of jade?"
Shen Yi snorted and said, "I can increase the price by twenty percent on the average price, and I can give up the competition for at least three C-level skill scrolls." If it is not acceptable, I can only think that some people have ulterior motives. If someone tries to force me to break my promise, there is no way to do it. ”
Zong Tang coughed lowly: "I think that's it." ”
He knew very well that it would be beneficial to offend Shen Yi too hard, and it was the right way to accept it when he saw it, speaking of which, Shen Yi's concession was not insignificant, after all, in the previous promise, the two teams originally had no reason to compete for six C-level skill scrolls, and now he gave up half of them at once. The reason why Zong Tang made a big deal before was because he predicted that the fifth task would be quite difficult, and it would be impossible for Ivy to brush the task, so he simply gave up his fantasy and planned for now. His prediction proved right, but he ignored the surprises.
Shen Yi's competition for giving up three C-level skill scrolls was completely unexpected, and with his current economic strength, it was impossible to compete with the South China Sea team, so he could only sigh helplessly.
"So...... Let's start the auction. ”
―――――――――――――
Behind-the-scenes deals determine the direction of the scene, and when everything is doomed to end well on stage, the performance on stage is just a formality.
The auction went very smoothly, and things did not deviate from Shen Yi's planned track.
Ambella really won two C-level skill scrolls, a bottle of flame enhancement potion, and a healing scroll at a price of 22,000 points, and three of the rune stones were only made for 1,500 points, which was simply a free gift. Ambella didn't expect that she would buy the runestone for this price, so she was a little surprised.
Even so, considering the proceeds that should be distributed to Ambella, this woman still did not reach the point of arrears, which made Shen Yi very impatient - he deliberately threw out three C-level skill scrolls, hoping that all of them would be bought by this woman, but he didn't expect her to be so cautious, that is, she didn't owe money.
As for Zong Tang, he really owes money, he can't shoot skill scrolls, so he can only buy knight guns and archery scrolls, which cost 8,000 points. Shen Yi estimated that it was impossible for him to dare to owe four thousand on credit, so this guy must still have some surplus in his hand, but no matter how he calculated, the Wind Forest Team must be in debt now. And for the city, a little debt is enough to kill.
In addition, in addition to the four C-rank skill scrolls, transformation tokens, and skill combination scrolls purchased by the Broken Blade team, the sonic scroll was bought by Ivy.
In the end, there were only two pieces of jade left that had not been auctioned, and at this time, there should be about 4,000 bloody points left in Ambella's hand.
Seeing that the jade was about to be auctioned, Shen Yi whispered to Hong Lang: "Find a way to provoke that woman." ”
Hong Lang was stunned: "What?"
"Quick!" Shen Yi had ordered in a hurry.
Hong Lang was stunned, looked at Ambella in the distance, rolled his eyes, and suddenly said loudly: "Damn, I get angry when I think of this Youyu." Lao Tzu fought two bosses by himself, and he was blackmailed. No way, I didn't dry someone last time. But I can't be blamed for this, the mountains can't fill the sea, and the big J8 can't do the bottomless pit!"
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at the flood wave in surprise at the same time, and some of them turned to Ambella in a little thought. I saw that Ambella's face was blue and white for a while, and her face was indescribably complex and ugly.
Her chest rose and fell several times, and finally she said viciously: "Youyu, three thousand pieces! I want two pieces!"
Anger makes people lose their minds, just to make the Broken Blades bleed a little worse, and Ambella does not hesitate to put the future of the team on the line.
Hearing this, Shen Yi let out a long breath.
Finally it worked.
