Chapter 268: Out of Control
Someone is competing for icebreakers?
For a moment, Victoria immediately became nervous.
28,000 crystal coins, a reasonable final price, which shows that the other party is also a veteran of the auction, and he knows how to speculate on people's hearts.
But the question is, why did the VIP in Box Nine shout out this price above the limit price?
Is it because they really need this icebreaker and the floor is higher than the average auctioneer, or is their purpose the same as their own, to further obtain something hidden behind them through this icebreaker technique?
This extremely intelligent celestial girl immediately tried to start the calculation.
But the next moment, a large, warm hand gently patted her slender shoulder.
"Lord Blade?" Victoria turned her head in surprise, looking at the black-haired young man who had interrupted her thoughts.
"Don't get caught up in it. Midi said lightly, "It doesn't matter what the purpose of the ninth box is, what we have to do is just to win this technique, as for what the other party is thinking, that's not the point!"
Midi doesn't know much about commerce and trade, but as a genius commander and a victorious commander, he knows one thing very well - when something unexpected happens, especially when an unknown enemy comes out of the yokori, no matter what the identity of these enemies is, and no matter what purpose they are attacking you, the first thing to do is to launch a fierce counterattack and fight them all back!
Fight first, wait until you survive and win, and then turn around and review and reflect on the overall situation!
Respond to all changes with the same, and there can be no confusion and distraction in the battle, this is the attitude of Midi.
And when she heard Midi's words, Victoria also immediately woke up, the most important thing now is not to care about the mentality of the people in Box Nine who shouted this "final price", but to immediately increase the price, and try to get the icebreaker technique first, and then talk about it, everything else is secondary.
"Thirty thousand crystals. ”
When the Dark Elf auctioneer shouted "First Confirmation", Midi spoke directly and quoted a new price without hesitation.
This price also shows an imperative attitude, and it also maintains rationality, and does not carry out that kind of tragic large increase, obviously, it also shows that the bidder is full of rationality, shouting.
If 28,000 crystals is the "final price", then 30,000 crystals can be said to be the "final price of the final price".
Of course, there is another option, which is to abandon this kind of competitive price increase based on a certain floor limit, and directly pull the price to an inflated level.
For example, 100,000 crystals.
But Midi didn't do that.
Of course, it was not because of a lack of money, but because the asking price was too high, and it was not possible to achieve the goal of successfully obtaining the icebreaker technique.
After all, under normal circumstances, this ice-breaking technique is worth a little money.
If you shout 30,000 or 40,000, you may be regarded by others as "you want to get this useful technique at all costs", but what if you shout 100,000 or 200,000?
These auctioneers are so shrewd that if they smell something unusual, they will certainly not think that Midi is going crazy, but will suspect that there is something wrong with the technique itself. Perhaps, it seems that there is only 25,000 techniques hidden in some unknown great benefits, which makes the price soar all the way to that high.
Then, if you don't do well, more people will join the auction, which will make the price even higher!
And even if Midi and the others succeed in filming this technique, I am afraid that they will be targeted.
Maybe in this heavily guarded and secluded auction house, Midi and Victoria won't be exposed, but what about when they're gone?
Considering these factors, Midi quoted the price of 30,000 crystals.
At the same time, it can also be said to be a signal to Box Nine - "I am neither raising the price nor deliberately targeting you, just because I need this technique, so I will seek to get it at a reasonable price."
It's just a pity that the VIP in Box Nine obviously dismisses this kind of information that Midi conveyed through the offer.
"Forty thousand crystals. ”
The deep voice coming from the ninth box directly raised the price by a full 10,000 yuan.
This is already a quote that is completely beyond the scope of rationality and calculation, no, it is not so much an offer, but a naked call.
What I have here is money – that's the message from Box Nine.
Midi sighed deeply, knowing that this auction had begun to go out of control, but he still calmly quoted his price: "Forty-two thousand crystal coins." ”
Of course, he also had money on hand, but before he really got out of control, Midi still wanted to work hard and try to get the icebreaker technique as low-key as possible.
Therefore, he still raised the price by no more than 2,000 in accordance with the normal and rational way of raising the price.
How about calming down a little - this is the message of Midi's quote.
However, it was clear that the veteran bidder on the other side completely ignored Midi's meaning at the moment, and still offered at his own pace, as if he were an enraged bull.
"Fifty thousand crystals. A voice came from Box Nine.
It was not to raise the price of 42,000 on Midi, but to directly add 10,000 to his own 40,000 offer, completely ignoring the opponent's posture, and completely looking like he was self-serving.
"Fifty thousand taels ......" Midi asked for the price again, but before he finished speaking, he was directly interrupted.
"Sixty thousand crystals. The deep voice of Box Nine sounded unceremoniously, with a daunting chill.
And this high price, which is obviously beyond the normal floor limit, also makes the atmosphere of the entire auction hall a little weird.
Obviously, these brains have made some excessive buyers feel that something is wrong.
Isn't it just a very ordinary icebreaker technique? And there are very few places where it can be used, and the improvement in the performance of the airship is close to zero, is it necessary to bid like this? It seems to be bidding for ice blood potion.
"What to do?" Victoria finally couldn't help but speak.
No matter how smart she is, no matter how calm she is, she is only an eighteen-year-old girl after all, and she may be able to face the wind and waves calmly, but in this situation where she needs to face an invisible enemy like walking a tightrope, she is still nervous.
"Don't worry, I have my own way. Midi patted Victoria lightly on the shoulder, and then offered a new bid very lightly.
"Two hundred thousand crystals. ”
Midi's voice was extremely calm, even casual, but it was like a pebble falling into a pond from a very high altitude, causing huge ripples in an instant. In the entire auction hall, there was a lot of commotion, even through the curtain for shelter, but the whispering was still transmitted, and it was noisy.
Even the dark elf auctioneer who had seen countless worlds subconsciously blurted out and asked, "You mean 200,000?"
The quotation is valid for export and cannot be reversed. It is obviously a serious dereliction of duty for an auctioneer to ask the auctioneer about the price that has already been quoted.
But this can't be blamed on this dark elf, after all, this is a full 200,000, not a "gold coin", but a "crystal coin"!
Even in a force like the Rothschild Chamber of Commerce, this is a lot of money, with this money, let alone maintaining the operation of an airship fleet, or even building a completely new fleet directly from scratch, and of course, by the way, recruiting a group of extremely experienced crews!
And now, such a sum of money is actually being used for this ordinary technique that is just used to transition the atmosphere in the auction?
This made almost everyone, including the auctioneer, directly shocked.
And more importantly, the series of quotations that started with 28,000 just now was heard from the beginning to the end. For these veteran bidders, those offers are like real words, and the meaning of them is clear.
Box Nine is the one who has lost his mind and has no one in his sights.
Midi, on the other hand, remained calm from beginning to end, and even persuaded the other party not to mess around.
These, they have already judged.
But how come it was that in the blink of an eye, Midi was going crazy here? And when he got crazy, obediently, it turned out to be 200,000 yuan, which was enough money to buy two bottles of ice blood potion, and there was still a lot left.
Faced with the auctioneer's momentary gaffe, Midi just chuckled and did not pursue it, but replied lightly: "Yes, it's 200,000." ”
"Hehe, this friend's anger is really not small. An old voice rang out from a box.
"It's even more surprising, I wonder if this guest in box seven is willing to report his name so that we can have a glimpse?" another graceful and soft female voice sounded, as if teasing, and pointed to the box number seven where Midi was.
"The fierce guy, though, is very pleasant, much better than the guy in box nine. ”
With the appearance of this 200,000 bid, the silence in the auction hall was broken again, just as everyone was arguing when the ice blood potion first appeared, and at this moment, those VIPs who did not participate in this auction also began to speak one by one.
These speeches may be ridiculed, mocking, tentative, or contemptuous, but they have one thing in common, that is, all the speeches are directed at Midi.
And not against this icebreaker technique.
This is the effect that Midi wants to achieve.
If you go down to the No. 9 box like this, and it soars to 200,000 yuan a little bit, then at the end of the day, people will only consider one question, that is, "What can this technique be worth 200,000?"
But now, Midi jumped directly from 60,000 to 200,000, this extremely conspicuous, extremely public, but extremely unreasonable behavior, but people greatly reduced their suspicion of the auction itself, and began to think that it was because of Midi's temperament that they would increase the price to this extent regardless of gains and losses.
It can be said that under the psychological tactics of Midi, a genius commander, the method of stealing the sky has successfully played a role, and the uncontrollable offer can no longer be a hidden danger.
And the "Icebreaker Technique", which is crucial for crossing the Great Storm Zone, will no longer attract too much attention.
If there is any flaw in this method, it is that it completely angers the VIPs in Box Nine.
"Very well, dare to quote this price! This price, do you have the courage to stand face to face in front of me and quote it again?" The deep voice sounded again, but this time, not for the sake of quoting, but directly pointing the finger at Midi.
The next moment, I only heard the sound of tearing towels, and the curtain that blocked the No. 9 box had slowly fallen from a high place, like broken wings, and fell to the ground.
And in the ninth box, a tall figure gradually emerged from the darkness.
