Chapter 227 The stunned audience in the hall, an epic? What?! Three hundred million?!
"What is this thing? The starting bid is tens of millions of gold coins?"
"I don't know..."
"No, is that the key point? Isn't the key point... this auctioneer is clearly an epic-level professional?!"
"Huh, an epic-level class? No, that can't be!!"
“Look at the purple light on his body…”
"Isn't that an ambient light?"
"...Atmosphere my ass! This is clearly an aura emanating from him! It's professional inspiration!"
"Hiss! An epic class... Auctioneer?!"
Everyone in the hall was stunned.
Especially when someone points out that the other person is an epic class, many who haven't been in the moment are dumbfounded.
...Those participating in this auction were naturally not just from the Guozhu family or other powerful forces.
Many local professionals from Tian Shuang City also came.
Since its opening, the amusement park auction has become famous for its thoughtful service, amazing financial resources, and high-quality, low-priced goods.
Several days before the Guozhu family and other major powers even entered the scene, hundreds of people had already become members of the Paradise Auction.
They were also notified of today's auction... they were only told that there were good items, but no further details were given.
So today, everyone naturally came to join in the fun... Anyway, admission is free, and there are free shows to enjoy, which is a good way to pass the time.
They treated the amusement park as just an ordinary auction house.
But now, they were all a little dumbfounded...
Auctioneer?! That's an epic class?!
That alone is enough to make one dizzy.
An epic class!
Looking at any place... even in Shengjing, he would be a big shot!
Turns out, he's just an auctioneer in this amusement park?!
...Just what's the story behind this amusement park?!
The people in the hall were all a little confused.
And at that very moment...
"Ten million gold coins!"
Someone spoke up.
The voice was transmitted through a loudspeaker, and it was impossible to tell whether the person was male or female, so it was obviously altered.
Valve Light glanced up at the second floor, then smiled and said, "The guest in VIP Room 7 has offered 10 million gold coins... Any higher bids?"
"Twenty million."
Before he could finish speaking, a voice rang out.
They also cannot distinguish between men and women.
But as soon as the price was offered, it doubled.
This left those in the hall who were unaware of the truth completely dumbfounded.
What the heck?
Twenty million already?
What exactly is this 'mysterious scroll'?
They immediately sensed malice; most of them didn't even know what this mysterious scroll was.
Still in a daze...
Thirty million!
"Fifty million!"
"Eighty million!"
"One hundred million!!"
...
Before the auctioneer, Fa Guang, could even finish speaking, the price of the scroll began to skyrocket.
The distinctly altered voices were amplified and broadcast throughout the auction venue.
Everyone in the hall was stunned...
What?! What kind of thing costs a hundred million?!
I don't even know what this mysterious scroll is!
While they were dumbfounded, the price of this mysterious scroll continued to soar, and in the blink of an eye, it had already exceeded 200 million!
"Two hundred and thirty million... Room number 13 has bid two hundred and thirty million... Anyone else bidding?"
A gentle, luminous sound rang out.
He wore a mysterious mask, obscuring his expression, but his slightly narrowed eyes suggested he was smiling.
"Two hundred million... thirty million?"
"...Happy Beans?"
"What's going on? Who are these people in the private room? Are they using the same currency as us?"
"Tian Shuang... has that many rich people?"
Those in the hall who were unaware of the situation frequently looked up at the upstairs, wanting to see who was bidding.
All that could be seen were streaks of dim light...
Even with the window open, nothing could be seen inside.
...
But no one answered their questions.
Just as Valve Light said... those who don't know what the mysterious scroll is should just watch the show.
The price paused briefly at 240 million, but quickly resumed its upward trend...
Two hundred and six hundred million, two hundred and eight hundred million, three hundred million...
Up to 360 million!
...
Three hundred and sixty million!
And it's gold coins!
The entire hall was stunned, falling into an eerie silence.
"Box 23 bids 360 million... 360 million... 360 million once... 360 million twice..."
In each of the private rooms.
Jiang Linxue frowned, and after a moment, she let out a soft breath.
"Forget it, this is only the first scroll. There's no need to fight too hard. Let's see how things go first."
After she finished speaking, the Jiang family members around her all looked somewhat solemn, but in the end they nodded and did not make any further bids.
"Three hundred and sixty million... This first scroll sold for three hundred and sixty million... The amusement park is going to make a killing today."
The Zhang family members didn't look too good either, their brows furrowed.
As expected, the price of the job change scroll was exorbitant...
Three hundred and sixty million is a significant blow to them...
"I guess he's one of the super members... with a credit fund of 100 million... Damn it, who exactly got the super member spots? I immediately asked to become a super member, but I was told that all the spots were already filled!"
Beside Li Yao, a disciple of the Li family gritted his teeth and said.
Li Yao's eyes were bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth, yet he was helpless.
The Li family prepared 300 million gold coins this time... but now it seems they really don't know if they have a chance to get one of the spots...
"...360 million three times... Congratulations to VIP Room No. 23 for winning the first mysterious scroll."
bite!
The hammer fell with a crisp sound, announcing the sale of the first item.
After it was finished, a staff member came up on stage and took away the item.
With a smile, Valves said, "The bidding for the first item has ended. Guests who didn't win the 'Mysterious Scroll' need not be disappointed. There are a total of seven Mysterious Scrolls today, and we will put them up for auction one by one during the auction... See you later."
After saying this, Fa Guang waved to everyone, and his figure flashed and disappeared.
This left the people below somewhat bewildered.
What's going on? Why did the auctioneer run away?
Just as I was wondering, the stage lights came on, and a beautiful woman walked to the front of the stage. She smiled and said, "Next is the second item to be auctioned... 'Hunter Cloud Dragon Blade'."
With a wave of her hand, another counter appeared beside her. This time, there was no glass on it, but instead, a long purple sword was placed on it.
"This is a Tier 3 Epic Longsword... Its stats are 35498 attack power, and it also comes with two top-tier skills..."
"...The starting bid is 500,000 gold coins. Each bid must be at least 10,000 gold coins. Bidding begins..."
The female auctioneer's voice echoed throughout the venue.
The auctioneer has changed...
Everyone at the scene was a bit stunned.
They've attended auctions more than once or twice.
But auctions of theme parks like this are quite rare...
Everyone present was still reeling from the shock of the first item up for auction.
Most importantly... the vast majority of people don't even know what the first item in the auction is all about!
This left them momentarily stunned.
It wasn't until someone made a bid that everyone gradually came to their senses.
They looked at each other in bewilderment.
"What exactly is this mysterious scroll?"
"What's going on with this amusement park...?"
"Can someone explain this to me?"
They buzzed with discussion.
Some people even asked the park staff who had been waiting around the lobby what was going on.
However, the staff all smiled and said, "The effects of the mysterious scroll are very mysterious. We're sorry, we don't know exactly what its effects are either. You don't need to worry about it... Of course, if you're interested, you can participate in the bidding..."
Bidding?
What's with the bidding?
Anyone can come up with 300 million, right?
Let's not even talk about the possibility of having that much money... even if we did...
Who the hell would be stupid enough to spend so much money on something whose effects they don't even know?
Many people expressed their dissatisfaction, but the staff just smiled and didn't say anything, leaving everyone helpless.
Some people even angrily stated that they would leave if the park didn't give them an explanation.
The staff member smiled and gestured for the guest to leave, asking, "Would you like to leave early?"
They were completely dumbfounded...
...
These things didn't cause much of a stir.
The auction proceeded as scheduled.
While many people were still wondering about the first item up for auction, as one item after another was put up for auction, many people calmed down their curiosity.
...I must say, the items auctioned at the park are really high quality!
Almost all of them are epic-level equipment and items.
There are also various extremely rare materials.
Many of them are key materials for advancing from Tier 2 to Tier 3.
Or perhaps rare items like fruits that grant additional attributes...
Gradually, the atmosphere warmed up.
The bidding was in full swing.
One item after another went up for auction.
When the twenty-fifth lot was being auctioned.
The light disappeared again.
The next moment, a purple light reappeared.
Another figure wearing a mysterious mask appeared on the high platform.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
Then I gasped...
"Another epic class!"
"Last time it was a man, this time it's a woman..."
"What exactly is the background of this amusement park?!"
When the second epic appeared, everyone present was stunned.
The second epic!
At the same time, the woman on the platform spoke, her voice sounding somewhat cold.
"I am the auctioneer for this item; you may call me Blood Robe. We will now begin the auction for the second mysterious scroll. The starting price is ten million, and each bid must be at least one million higher. Begin the bidding."
A cool voice echoed, and she pointed to another display stand that appeared beside her, illuminated by dazzling purple lights, inside which was a scroll.
Seeing this, everyone was invigorated!
They're up here again!
It's still this mysterious scroll...
Will it fetch an astronomical price again?
The people in the hall perked up and waited.
then……
"One hundred million."
The first person to make a bid raised the starting price from ten million to one hundred million.
It made the audience gasp in surprise.
...Without a doubt, this scroll possesses truly astonishing efficacy. Otherwise, it couldn't have soared to such a level so quickly!
The key issue is that they don't know what its effects are!
This made them extremely anxious and frustrated.
Prices continue to soar.
150 million, 200 million, 280 million...
Finally, the price was set at 330 million.
It was 30 million less than the first time.
After three bids, the hammer fell and the deal was closed.
The woman named Xue Chang nodded slightly, then turned around and stepped off the auction stage.
Some people even took the scroll with them.
...This second item was also taken from the second floor; it was from private room number 15.
...
Then the third item...
The fourth item...
The fifth item...
...
The auction continued, and many rare and valuable items were offered for sale.
But the most expensive item, without a doubt, is the mysterious scroll that appears every dozen or so lots.
Almost all of them fetched sky-high prices of over 300 million!
The highest was the first item... but the lowest was still 320 million.
Without exception, they were all taken away by the VIP rooms on the second floor.
...
"Damn it! Who on earth bought these scrolls?!"
Li Yao's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets; he was extremely anxious.
They clearly stated that there were only seven portions in total... Five portions have already been sold, leaving only two.
"what to do?"
His companions were also anxious.
"There's no other way... We have to sell what we've prepared. Next time... we must fight for it. Otherwise, when it comes to the last item... I'm afraid we'll be even less able to compete!"
Li Yao gritted his teeth and said decisively.
People were able to remain rational at first, since there were still many of them.
But there are only two left... I bet a lot of people who didn't manage to snag one are getting anxious!
He must win the next one.
Otherwise, when it comes to the last item, everyone will be going all in... and who knows what astronomical price it will fetch.
He immediately pressed the button to call the park staff.
Soon, the door to the private room opened, and a park employee appeared with a smile.
"Honorable guest, how can I help you?"
"I need to sell some things," Li Yao said directly.
"Okay... I'll have the appraiser come over right away, please wait a moment."
The girl finished speaking with a smile, bowed, and left the room.
Li Yao's eyes gleamed as he looked at the auction stage below.
Shortly after, someone walked in.
"What are you going to do?"
A calm voice rang out.
Li Yao paused for a moment, then subconsciously turned his head.
Then, a masked man was seen standing in the private room.
Li Yao's expression froze for a moment. After hesitating for a moment, he tentatively asked, "Are you... Epic?"
The other person glanced at him, then calmly said, "I am the appraiser for this case, codename 'Azure Flame'."
Azure Flame?
As expected, he was a codenamed member!
Li Yao's expression changed instantly.
This is an epic-level professional!
And he's a Tier 3 Epic Class!
This made everyone present involuntarily tense, watching the other party's changing expressions.
"Hmm? Are you going to sell something?" Cang Yan asked, frowning.
"Yes... take a look."
Li Yao took a deep breath, not daring to put on airs as a direct descendant of the Guozhu family. He responded and waved his hand, and a pile of things emitting purple light appeared on the ground.
"Look at these things... how much can they sell for?"
He looked at Cang Yan and swallowed.
Cang Yan glanced at the epic equipment and items on the ground and nodded: "Wait a moment..."
He inspected each item one by one.
Finally, he looked up and said, "There are twenty-three items in total, totaling 115 million."
"A little over 100 million?" Li Yao was stunned for a moment. That's equivalent to 5 million per piece?
This price is quite good.
A normal Tier 3 epic item would cost between four and six million on the market.
Even the best ones only cost a little over six million.
This price is quite reasonable.
"good."
"I'll send you the gold coins in a bit."
Cang Yan waved his hand, put the items away, and then turned to leave.
The decisive action stunned everyone for a moment.
Li Yao took a deep breath.
"I have about 400 million gold coins now... I should be able to get one."
He pursed his lips, thinking.
...
But at the same time, there were others who shared the same thoughts as him…
Not a small number.
In the blink of an eye, the lights went out again.
Then, a burly figure in purple appeared on the auction stage.
Those below were already stunned into silence...
"The sixth epic..."
"What is the origin of this paradise?"
The people in the hall were trembling.
Six epic figures!
They had never seen so many epics in their lives!
"Now we're auctioning the sixth mysterious scroll. You can call me Po Jun. The rules are the same as before, let the bidding begin..."
He grinned and began to speak.
