Chapter 230: A Tense and Exciting Auction
The auctioneer from the neutral forces of 003 behaved like a robot, very straightforwardly, and waited only about a minute for the second lot to be auctioned.
"The second lot in this auction, the High Relic - the Blade of the Huntress Efilina, this item comes from the treasure of the Hunter Clan of the Ancient Civilization of the Silver Heart, and it is said that the treasure held by the 1954th generation of the Matriarch of the Hunter Clan once used this treasure to hunt a starry sky beast."
"Relic Effect: With this treasure, all ships under your command gain an additional +25% shield damage modifier!"
After a pause, he slowly announced the price of the treasure:
"The starting price of this item is 200 billion cubic meters of refined steel, and the price increase shall not be less than 1 billion cubic meters of refined steel each time, please bid now."
As soon as the voice fell, someone immediately bid 220 billion square meters.
In the next second, someone raised the price by 10 billion square meters.
Immediately after bidding again, the price quickly climbed, and the climbing speed was higher than the previous Doomsday Light mother chip, which soon reached 400 billion square meters.
Li Qing was not in a hurry, he watched with interest the bids of the elders from different races, affected by the isolation materials of the rooms, he didn't know what people were in these rooms, or what race, but it was certain that the people inside were all big people of various races, and it was not strange that there might be a military lord sitting in any room, or even the lord of the Star Sea.
This treasure......
Li Qing was a little interested, but not very interested, he set an expected price for himself, and he wouldn't shoot if he exceeded it.
Although he said that the lots in this were all good things and he could use them himself, he couldn't shoot them alone.
With so many elders from different races coming to this five-year super auction, you can auction everything off by yourself, which will definitely make everyone unhappy.
Although auctions are always the highest bidder, eating alone is bound to attract dissatisfaction.
And you eat alone, and all the treasures are on you alone, so it's hard to guarantee that no one will have any thoughts.
Although this auction will ensure the personal safety of the guests, it is only limited to the 003 galaxy, and leaving the galaxy is not guaranteed, and the people present are all elders, maybe there will be some special means to track, he does not dare to take that risk.
Therefore, Li Qing's idea is to only auction a small part, only a few treasures that are extremely critical to him and urgently needed, and the rest can only be given up and wait for the next auction.
Anyway, every five years.
The price of relics rose rapidly and alternately, and after about ten minutes, it had risen to 1.06 trillion square meters, which had exceeded his psychological reserve price of 700 billion square meters.
I didn't have to wait long, and after about five minutes or so, after a guest of unknown race in a certain room bid 1.25 trillion cubic meters of refined steel, no one else bid, and the final price was equivalent to 487 trillion star yuan.
Immediately after the third lot, a set of master chips for all weapon accessories below the flagship, excluding battleships, a full set of fifth-generation technology.
Before the change, he must have won it with all his might, but unfortunately he already has it, so he can only watch others bid.
Ten minutes later, it was taken by an unknown guest at a price of 14,000 trillion cubic meters of refined steel.
Then came the fourth lot, which was sold in a package of 240 billion foreign civilizations.
The auctioneer projects this race in front of everyone, showing it in 360 degrees and introducing its merits.
This is a humanoid race, it should be some kind of bird evolved, there are wings on the back, can fly on its own, its degree of evolution is very high, the feathers on the body have basically fallen off, the same is true for the face, but the hair position on the back of the head is still small feathers, and there is a cluster of large feathers like a crown on the top of the head, which looks like an ornament and is very beautiful.
Hands and feet have also evolved from the stiff fingers of birds to flexible hands and feet, with three fingers that are extremely flexible enough to handle complex weapons or instruments.
It's pretty good purely evolutionarily, but .....
Li Qing considered the situation of his territory, and finally gave up the plan to buy.
34 billion minotaur coolies have been bought before
Cannon fodder, the territory itself already has about 37 billion Orb people, plus more than 20 billion cyber humans, it has more than 90 billion people, which is already a lot.
Now that the main race of the territory itself is already out of balance, and with another 240 billion alien races, the proportion of the main human race will be further reduced.
In addition to this, the most important reason is that there is nothing too good about this birdman race.
In terms of combat effectiveness, it is not comparable to the Minotaur.
Although it can fly, the advantage of being able to fly in the interstellar age is far less important than in ancient times.
As for wisdom, both the Orb and the human race can use it.
In terms of appearance, not to mention humans, minotaurs are more pleasing to the eye than birdmen, they are just birdmen, not angels.
Therefore, Li Qing thought about it for a while and gave up the purchase.
Not long after, when it was the turn of the fifth lot, Li Qing suddenly cheered up.
"An ancient relic chest, starting from the auction of 100 billion cubic meters of refined steel, each time the price increase is not less than 1 billion square meters!"
"I want this!"
Li Qing directly doubled the price of 200 billion square meters, which immediately attracted the windows of several rooms to fall, and several figures of Mohu looked over.
The box is a pure face, although the ancient relic-level box is generally not too bad, but the possibility of wanting to draw the best is not high, so after someone bids, no one will bid after he directly reaches the price of 300 billion square meters.
Next, a full 10 million units of dark matter, with a starting price of 500 billion square meters.
According to the price comparison, it is equivalent to about 20 million star yuan one unit of dark matter, which is worthy of being an ultra-rare resource.
There is no way for ordinary military masters to get their hands on this thing, and under normal circumstances, only high-level civilizations that have mastered high-level energy can collect it, or some ordinary sixth-level lords can also find a way to collect a small amount.
This thing is of little use to ordinary military masters, because they can't use it, and it is only useful for those Star Sea Lords who try to study and master the energy of high-level dark matter, because a lot of high-level energy-related research requires the consumption of dark matter.
This is quite a chicken rib for Li Qing, at this stage, he doesn't even have the main military technology, so he doesn't have to think about getting any dark matter at all.
Besides, there is a high probability that the on-site competition for this thing is the Lord of the Star Sea, or the top military master, and he is a little lord who has a lot of fun.
So, he sat and watched them bid back and forth, and the price soon exceeded a trillion cubic meters of refined steel, and it continued to rise.
It wasn't until half an hour later that the dust settled, and a guest of an unknown race bid 1,600 billion cubic meters of refined steel for the 10 million units of dark matter.
"Next up is the seventh lot, an unknown star beast egg from an ancient ruin, with a starting price of 1,000 billion cubic meters of refined steel."
"Next is the eighth lot, which is from ....., with a starting price of 800 billion cubic meters of refined steel."
"Next up is the ninth lot, from ...... The starting price is 1.2 trillion cubic meters of refined steel."
It is evident that the value of the auction price is getting higher and higher as you go further back, and the increment is becoming more and more exaggerated.
Soon I saw that a certain lot was a living planet, it turned out to be a three-class living planet, which has been transformed to greatly improve the livability level, and has been developed, with a population of more than 8 billion people, located in the northernmost part of the Perseus spiral arm, in the territory of a powerful civilization called the Commonwealth of Ferrosa.
This civilization called the Ferosa Consortium is located in the eleventh star field of the Immortal Spiral Arm, the Tianzhu Star Field, and its territory covers the entire Tianzhu Star Field, and accounts for half of the Asuna Star Domain of the Twelfth Star Field, and this life planet is located in the northern part of the Asuna Star Domain of the Twelfth Star Domain.
Anyone who photographs this living planet will also be eligible to join the Commonwealth of Ferrosa and become a member of its noble senate.
If a civilization is suffixed with a union, it generally means that the civilization is composed of multiple species, not a single species.
For example, the Shata Tribal Union originally consisted of eight civilizations.
The Bruwan Union is made up of more than a dozen different civilizations.
Well, the United Emperor of Humanity
The country is the exception, but although there are no other species, it is a coalition government composed of a large number of large and small warlords.
Moreover, the United Empire of Humanity belongs to the player civilization and cannot form a joint civilization with other civilizations.
Then the auction continued, and one by one the precious treasures were taken out for auction, Li Qing was dazzled, but he didn't bid for most of the things that were not very important, and he was a little low-key, so as to reduce the heat for the good things in the back of the auction.
But there are too many good things, although he has repeatedly said in his heart that he must hold back, but when he shoots some good things, he still can't help it.
For example, the fifteenth lot is a 100th and 8th order super Rubik's Cube, called the Mysterious Rubik's Cube, which is spread among the Silver Heart races, and it is said that if you can unlock the secret of this Rubik's Cube, you can find the home planet of a super civilization that once ruled the entire galaxy in ancient times, and inherit all the heritage of the super civilization that dominated the entire river system.
According to the auctioneer, this thing appeared more than a million years ago, and has gone through hundreds of owners one after another, but no one has been able to solve its secrets.
Normally, this thing is enough to be the finale, but the reason why it is not the finale is mainly because this thing is too old for anyone to unlock its secrets, and the legend is just a legend, and it is not certain that it is true, so its value cannot be determined.
If the legend is true, the value of this thing is more than the value of all the items in the entire auction combined.
But if the legend is fake, then it's a fool.
The key is that no one has been able to solve the secret for more than a million years, and its former owners are all big names such as Star Sea Lord or Star Sea Lord who can't solve it, which causes everyone to put a big question mark on the authenticity of this thing.
The starting price was only 5 trillion square meters, and Li Qing raised the price to 8,000 billion cubic meters of refined steel many times, and no one raised the price, and he easily won it.
"Ma, who is this, so rich?"
Hundreds of people competed for more than a dozen lots, and he took four by himself, and no matter how low-key he wanted, he couldn't keep a low profile.
If it weren't for the fact that all the people who could participate in this super auction were the elders of various clans, and there was no shortage of Star Sea Lords among them, a bunch of people would definitely come to check Li Qing's identity if it were an ordinary auction.
The sixteenth lot, another high-class relic.
The seventeenth lot, a special token, can communicate with an immortal-level existence in the Void, ask her to shoot three times.
Lot 18 is a talent package of 585 Purple Names plus 28 Orange Names and 2 Gold Names of Alien Geniuses, including scientists, naval commanders and admirals, and administrative talents.
Here Li Qing gritted his teeth and endured it for a long time, but in the end he couldn't help but make a lot of money.
There's no way, talents are rare, and the time span for those newborns in the super livable area to grow up is too long, at least more than 20 years, and I can't wait that long.
The starting price of this thing is 5 trillion, but there are very few bidders, just two people have bids, or 10 billion 10 billion plus, Li Qing has 6 trillion and no one has bid anymore, which is a small leak.
It is estimated that they all know that he is rich, and the bid is very fierce, but this thing is only useful for a new lord like him, and the people present are all elders, and there is basically no shortage of talents under his subordinates, and the two gold names and twenty-eight orange names are of some value.
But it's a pity that there is no naval commander in their most needed among these two golden names, and this value is somewhat discounted.
Coupled with the fact that these are all aliens, the value is somewhat discounted.
There is no need to question why the dignified golden name is not valuable to these elders, generally speaking, even scientists like this golden name are very valuable, especially the golden name naval commander, whose talent and skills are strong, its value will be higher.
The point is that they can't guarantee the absolute loyalty of their subordinates, and they are not like Li Qing who can be turned into servants of light to ensure absolute loyalty.
For example, if the innate ability of the naval commander of the Golden Name is so powerful, what will happen if he is allowed to lead a large army for a long time, such as a hundred years, two hundred years?
Humans are not able to marry these aliens, not to mention the huge differences in appearance, and reproductive isolation alone determines that loyalty cannot be guaranteed by marriage.
If loyalty cannot be guaranteed, and beware must be guarded, who would dare to put military power in their hands with confidence?
You must know that any rules are obtained from bloody lessons, and it is not that there have been no rebellions in the past, so only a small lord like Li Qing dares to use these alien talents, and the real military lord cultivates talents by himself.
To be honest, if it weren't for the sake of those two gold names and twenty-eight orange names, this batch of talent packages would not be worth the price at all, and it was completely this group of high-end talents that raised the value.
He bought it entirely for the sake of those two gold names that could be converted into negative stars, and if there were no two gold names, he wouldn't bid at all.
Why did it cost to buy those Hull people from the Thundercloud Squad in the first place, and they also had two golden names?
But it can be seen from here the importance of the platform, if the Thundercloud Squad is eligible to participate in this super auction, that wave will be earned to death in the first place.
"Next up is the nineteenth lot, a standard divisional and regimental fleet from a powerful civilization in the Silver Heart, including two Titan super flagships, two supercarriers, fifteen dreadnoughts, ten flagship aircraft carriers, ten thousand battleships, thirty thousand cruisers, fifty thousand destroyers, two hundred thousand frigates, and one hundred thousand logistics ships."
"All sixth-level technologies in the fleet, but not dark matter or other advanced energy, with a starting price of 30 trillion cubic meters of refined steel."
"Oh no!"
The starting price alone exceeded the top 10 lots combined.
