On April 24, 2042, everyone on Blue Star was suddenly teleported to an unknown place.
Everyone was horrified to find themselves on a single raft in the boundless ocean. Suddenly, an ethereal ...
"The Hundred Flowers Sea?"
Upon hearing this, everyone murmured amongst themselves.
Deer Tree: "Are there any intelligence organizations or anything like that?"
Sheruojia: "Not yet, after all, they just started, so it may take some time, since intelligence organizations are generally quite secretive."
Upon hearing this, Lu Shu, Linafeier, and the others nodded in agreement. That's right, organizations that sell information generally offend people, so it's normal for them to be secretive.
Of course, there are also powerful intelligence organizations, which should be easy to find, like the Illusionary Mist Intelligence Organization.
Linafil: "Okay, let's discuss this at the meeting tomorrow, and also call the island lord over."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded again. It was fine; they already knew the name of this sea area. 11th place was alright; there should be quite a few special resources, and they had enough time.
......
Chen Ping, who was in the movie theater, suddenly blinked, threw the popcorn in his hand into his mouth, and a black token appeared in his hand, flashing.
Chen Ping looked at the black market token in his hand. Hmm, there's actually a black market around here?
Hmm, Chen Ping silently looked at his assets. Hmm, he had been tricked by that White Scale Dragon Fruit Tree Island. Now he only had a few thousand Origin Gold Coins and a little over a hundred million Spirit Pearls.
That seems like a lot, but I wonder what the prices are like in the black market in high-level sea areas.
After thinking it over, Chen Ping decided to go and take a look. After all, with his limited savings, he could afford to buy one or two items.
He glanced at the black token that was shimmering with a faint white light, then licked the popcorn syrup off his fingers. After explaining the situation to Linafil and Lushu, he took out the Island Mirror and used the teleportation function built into the black market token to teleport there.
With a flash of black light, Chen Ping disappeared from the movie theater.
Thump!
Chen Ping stood on the sea, completely bewildered. Looking at the water beneath his feet, he couldn't help but twitch his lips. What the hell? Luckily, he reacted in time, otherwise he would have been soaked to the bone.
Chen Ping glanced at Black Island not far away and frowned. Wasn't he usually teleported directly to the Black Market Port? Why did he land on the sea this time?
After washing his hands in seawater and feeling that his fingers were no longer sticky, Chen Ping got up and headed towards the black market.
As the number of people around him gradually increased, Chen Ping glanced at them and quickened his pace, since there was a queue to enter the black market.
Well, upon entering the port, Chen Ping discovered that there were at least ten checkpoints, and the inspection process was very fast.
Head straight to the nearest checkpoint and start queuing.
Soon it was Chen Ping's turn.
Chen Ping immediately pulled out the black market token.
The inspector glanced at it and then said, "Junior member, please."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ping walked in, completely bewildered. Looking at the black token in his hand, he wondered, "Shouldn't it be a Gold Membership? Or is a Gold Membership just a low-level membership in high-level sea areas?"
Putting away the token, Chen Ping shook his head, deciding not to think about it anymore. He'd find out once the auction started. With that, he began to stroll around.
Chen Ping mostly looked at the stalls outside the black market without buying anything. After all, there were plenty of unscrupulous merchants, and the black market's inability to detect things was being exploited thoroughly. A lot of items that looked high-end were actually mostly man-made.
And you know what? It's definitely a high-class sea area; there are so many people! Every stall has at least one or two people, so they're not worried about not having business at all.
As Chen Ping wandered around, he arrived at the entrance of the auction house. Hmm? Looking at the open doors of the auction house, had it started?
But looking around at the people, it didn't seem like the auction was about to start. Hmm, Chen Ping stroked his chin and went inside. The two guards at the door didn't stop him.
Upon entering, he arrived directly at the auction hall. Hmm, Chen Ping couldn't help but look up. Oh wow, there were actually two floors. He shook his head, randomly found a seat, and sat down. There were already quite a few people seated there.
It seems that auctions in high-level waters do not prevent people from getting in early.
After taking his seat, Chen Ping opened the auction rules and began to read them.
Sure enough, I was a Gold Member in the lower-level sea area, but when I crossed sea areas, there was no record of it, and I only became the lowest-level Black Market Token. However, if I returned to the lower-level sea area, I would still be a Gold Member.
Not being a premium member doesn't even qualify you to view the items in this auction. Chen Ping shook his head, then silently opened the listing page; he wanted to auction some things.
First, Chen Ping placed a top-grade divine crystal down. This kind of thing is a hard currency everywhere, and the demand is huge, after all, it is a cultivation resource, and it is the top-grade kind. However, it is said that there are even higher-grade ones in the core sea area, but he doesn't know if it's true or not. He learned about it by chance when purchasing information, so it is not accurate.
After placing a top-grade divine crystal, Chen Ping discovered that his previous divine crystal transaction records had resurfaced.
Chen Ping murmured, "Is this for reference? This function is pretty good; it allows people who don't know much about it to know the general price."
After taking a look, hmm, a top-grade divine crystal costs between 1000 and 3000 spirit beads, with the highest record being 2700 spirit beads per crystal. Hmm? Chen Ping couldn't help but frown. Really? It seems a bit low.
Chen Ping shook his head, abandoning his plan to sell the top-grade divine crystals. Then he took a look and thought, "Oh, this is the God King advancement path? I forgot to put it in the temple."
Chen Ping muttered to himself, "I wonder how much this is worth? Should I put it up for sale? I just don't know if anyone has ever sold it before."
I put the item down, and wow, there were over a dozen transaction records? No wonder this is a high-level sea area; people are even selling this kind of thing?
Looking at the transaction prices, wow, they're all in the highest currency, Origin Gold Coins. But the latest record is over a thousand years old, that's quite a long time ago.
"One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand... Not bad, several hundred thousand Origin Gold Coins? It feels alright."
Chen Ping nodded, then looked at the highest transaction record, which was about 10,000 years ago. The price was almost a million Origin Gold Coins, at 970,000 Origin Gold Coins.
Chen Ping thought for a moment and put it up for auction: 990,000 Origin Gold Coins, starting price. Yes, that's right, the starting price.
bite!
A voice came directly over.
[Black Market System: Ding, esteemed member, the price of your listed item is too high. Would you like to notify the Black Market administrator for discussion?]
Chen Ping paused for a moment upon seeing the sudden notification. He hadn't expected the Black Market system in the advanced sea areas to be managing it. He wondered if it was on the same level as the survival system.
Chen Ping: "Let's give the notification."
[Black Market System: Ding, esteemed member, please wait...]
