Swordsman the Wanderer
Ch 115's. Auction (1)
A short while later, the entrance of the auction hall was closed, signaling the start of the auction. The auction was led by an old man with excited black eye pupils and white hair full of crowns, the only high-end auctioneer in Deqa Tribe City, named Fang Dong.
Standing on the stage, Fang Dong explained some of the auction rules and things that needed to be considered honestly, then swiftly continued with the first auction item. The first auction item was not a potion of any type nor was it a spirit pellet or spirit stone, it was a sharp short sword called Blood Devil.
The short sword was short in length, with a dark maroon black color, as if it was smeared with a layer of black-colored blood called the Blood Demon Sword.
According to Fang Dong's preface, this Blood Demon short sword was a weapon left behind by a Heavenly God Swordsman named Chen Fei from a thousand years ago. The sword was extremely sharp and its most frightening ability was to suck blood. Sucking the blood of the enemies and the dead under this short sword, when they died, all the blood in their bodies would be sucked dry, similar to the corpses that had been mummified.
However, when Fang Dong revealed the bidding price for the short sword, the majority of the people on the lower floor took a sharp breath.
"Fifty million!"
"Fifty million gold coins, and that's still the starting price!"
The moment Fang Dong's voice stopped, there were already people bidding: "Sixty million!"
"Sixty million!"
Rising by ten million in an instant, everyone turned to look at VIP room number six.
"Sixty one million!" While everyone was still in shock, another voice sounded.
"Seventy million!" Bargain from VIP room number six again.
The price continued to rise and soon reached a hundred million. Regardless of how much the other person offered, guests in VIP room number six raised it by ten million each time they bid.
Throughout the Auction, Zhang En was still sitting quietly. Although the Blood Devil Sword seemed like a good weapon, to him, having the famous Sword given by his teacher, bidding on the Blood Devil Sword was an exaggeration.
In the end, the short sword Blood Demon was purchased by VIP room number six for a hundred and ten million.
The second auction item after the Blood Devil short sword was a jade box that contained the three stalks of Life Soul Grass spirit herbs, an extremely rare spirit herb. Every single stem of that Life Soul Grass was over a thousand years old.
Looking at the three stalks of Life Soul Grass at the auction on the stage, Zhang En's eyes twinkled. If he had these three stalks of Life Soul Grass, the Ancient Puppet Control art, could definitely have another breakthrough, doubling his spiritual power, perhaps tripling or even more.
"For these three stalks of Life Soul Grass, the starting price was thirty million each, the three of them were auctioned along with the starting price of ninety million." Fang Dong briefly explained the many uses of the Life Soul Grass and stated that the three stalks of the Life Soul Grass would be auctioned at once.
"One hundred million." After a moment of silence, someone finally made an offer. Everyone in the hall turned to look, once again it was VIP room number six.
"One hundred and ten million." came from VIP room number seven.
"One hundred and fifty million." VIP room number six.
"One hundred and fifty million!" the offer from VIP room number six raised the price forty million higher, surprising everyone below.
Zhang En remained silent, showing no signs of joining the bid. However, at one hundred and fifty million, VIP room number seven became quiet. It was clear that the expert in the number Seven VIP Room did not rate the three stalks of the Life Soul Grass to be worth a hundred and fifty million, even though the grass was rare.
“Do you want to offer higher price?” Silence filled the hall, auctioneer Fang Dong scanned the crowd and asked.
"One hundred and fifty million, twice."
When the people present thought there would be no more to bid, suddenly a voice sounded: "One hundred and sixty million."
People turned to look at the source of the voice. Zhang En, who wanted to bid, was also surprised, as that person was the mysterious hooded man who had covered his face.
Zhang En sneered coldly, he did not expect that the man would also be interested in the three stalks of the Life Soul Grass.
"One hundred and seventy million!" Zhang En's voice sounded.
Hearing Zhang En's voice, the man turned around, two pairs of eyes locked towards Zhang En with ill intentions.
"One hundred and eighty million." the man made an offer.
The voices of Zhang En and the mysterious man rang out in the auction hall, each increasing the bid by ten million each time it bid, rapidly raising the price to two hundred million. At this moment, VIP room number six had stopped bidding.
The people in the hall became dumbfounded as each expert tried to guess the identity of Zhang En and the man. After all, most of the great powers could not simply throw out two hundred million just to bid for three stalks of Life Soul Grass.
"Two hundred and ten million!" Hearing the mysterious man raise the bid price to two hundred million, Zhang En again bid.
Surprisingly, the man no longer bid, so, in the end, Zhang En obtained three stalks of Life Soul Grass for two hundred and ten million gold coins.
Zhang Eh stored the Grass into a ring after he paid for it. His eyes looked at the man without much expression, he could naturally guess what was being planned by him. Most likely, the man was planning to kill him after the auction.
After the second auction was completed, around twenty items were auctioned off afterwards. Every rare item that was at the auction was extremely valuable and the sound of bidding rang out endlessly in the auction hall, but even so, neither Zhang En was bidding any more.
"Next, our auction item is a first-rate spirit stone." Fang Dong introduced the next item.
Huang Xiaolong's eyes twinkled. Finally, they had auctioned off first-rate spirit stones, this was Zhang En's main goal in attending the auction this time around.
“The value and usefulness of first-rate spirit stones, I'm sure everyone here already knows and I don't need to explain, this time, there are a total of fifty-nine first-rate spirit stones, I'm sure, the bid price starts at five hundred million." Fang Dong's voice sounded in the hall.
Five hundred million was considered a sky-high price at the moment in the auction.
"Six hundred million." Zhao Chen's offer came from VIP room number nine.
"Six hundred million!" The auction hall was instantly silent hearing Zhao Chen's offer.
