Chapter 230: Ninth-level Auction House, Doubts
Although Lin Luo was at the sixth level, he was able to cultivate his attributes from the initial sixth level to the perfect sixth level with only one million low-grade magic crystals.
But he is now an eighth-level body,
Once he is promoted to the peak of the eighth level, the upper limit of the four basic attributes will reach a terrifying value of 1000M!
According to the conversion method given by the system, if he can improve his strength attribute to 1000M, he will have the power of a dragon!
The "jiao" here does not refer to the mermaid, but the dragon in ancient mythology.
According to legend,
The Jiao was transformed from a snake, but because it could not survive the thunder tribulation, it failed to transform into a dragon and could only survive in this state of being neither a dragon nor a dragon.
But its strength should not be underestimated. Moving mountains, filling the sea, and destroying mountains are just a piece of cake for it.
However, there are some creatures that are lucky enough to avoid the heavenly tribulation and successfully transform into dragons. These "true dragons" will be punished by the heavenly tribulation.
If he can successfully survive the thunder tribulation, he can continue to survive as a true dragon.
Of course, as Lin Luo's strength limit increases,
Correspondingly,
If he wanted to advance to the ninth level, he would naturally need to consume more cultivation resources, including but not limited to pure energy items such as magic crystals.
"According to the system's absorption efficiency, if I want to fully cultivate all four attributes, the cost of the attributes alone..."
Lin Luo pondered how to advance to the ninth level, and finally came to a conclusion in his mind: "I need at least 100 million low-grade magic crystals!"
One hundred million for him.
It’s not too much, but it’s not too little either.
If his strength could match or even crush an 89th level mage, he could collect enough magic crystals by simply completing an 89th level bounty order.
But this is only if,
In fact, Lin Luo, who has just entered the eighth level, can only compete with those of the same level in terms of comprehensive strength.
If Lin Luo really encountered a level 89 mage whose attribute points were ten times higher than that of a level 79 mage, he would not even have the conditions to confront him head-on except for the power of the domain.
Even if it has the "pseudo-god" function, it can still act like a rogue and run away at any time.
But being able to escape is one thing, and whether you can win the fight is another.
Therefore, selling scrolls is the correct way to upgrade.
In the box,
Lin Luo's thoughts gradually drifted away, and old man Hughes sat beside him stiffly.
He originally wanted to ask about the scroll, but when he thought of the other party's powerful strength, he hesitated to speak.
The atmosphere fell into silence for a moment.
What Hughes thought was not within Lin Luo's consideration.
He silently read the system, and the data panel suddenly came into view.
[Name: Lin Luo
Race: Human/Demi-divine
Level: 71
Experience value: 0.820 crystals/1 crystal (System adjustment: 1000M equals 1 crystal.)
Main occupation: Mage
Secondary occupation: Assassin
Basic attributes: Strength 220M, Endurance 275M, Agility 200M, Mental Power 420M.
Special attributes: Charm 9.82, Luck...?
Free attributes: 0
Physical strength: 1 crystal/1 crystal
Skills: Omitted (DJ can check)
Talent: Omitted (DJ can check)
Special physique: Ruled demigod body (additional amplification 0 times)
Passive: Refining Spirit Body (Increases all attribute resistance by 26%)
After just one glance, Lin Luo thought to himself, "Sure enough."
As he expected,
The Demigod Body and the passive spell "Refining the Divine Body" were listed together on the panel.
Today, Lin Luo's attribute template is luxurious, allowing him to face a level 79 mage, which is an eighth-order peak creature.
If the other party is not prepared in advance, or looks down on you.
He can even kill it with one blow using the explosive output of his advanced skills.
This is also the reason why he believes he can compete with people of the same level.
Lin Luo glanced at the level bar again, level 71.
If promoted to level 79, the highest attribute will reach a point close to 1000M.
"A 1000M attribute value cap... Tsk, if there's no chance to sell scrolls, it's really not going to be possible to collect it all in such a short time!"
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "No wonder those traditional mages spend hundreds of years advancing from the eighth level to the ninth level.
Furthermore, you cannot use magic energy to temper your body while practicing."
With such a huge attribute limit, there is no advanced skills, no sufficient talent and training resources.
If you rely solely on your own hard work, the time required will be astronomical!
In addition, the average lifespan of an eighth-level mage is only 1,000 years, which is also bad news that makes countless mages despair.
With such limited time and no absolute certainty, who would choose to practice with a Dharma body?
Apart from the professionals who have systems, Altria is the first one Lin Luo has met.
Thinking of this,
Lin Luo suddenly felt that he seemed to have found the reason why mages generally did not fight to the death.
After all, life expectancy is closely related to physical health.
If your body is permanently damaged during a life-and-death battle with someone, it will inevitably affect your lifespan.
Old Arthur is a typical example.
The average lifespan of a tenth-level mage is three thousand years, but this old man only lived for more than two thousand years and was almost dead.
It is obvious that he fought many battles during his reign, and his body was riddled with wounds from battles both large and small.
I'm afraid it's reaching the point where the fuel is running out.
Thinking of this,
Lin Luo immediately focused his mind, comprehending the life rules in his body and the majestic life energy.
I was suddenly delighted.
Although he is only at the eighth level, his lifespan has exceeded two thousand years!
The role of the demigod body and the rules of life is not empty.
When he thought of this, the corners of Lin Luo's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
"Chairman Hughes, can you arrange the auction process for the unlimited eighth-level scroll immediately?"
"Yes! Of course!"
Hughes was overjoyed and said with a smile on his face: "I am waiting for your instructions, sir.
The Phantom Exchange has always had reserved auction slots to handle embedded auctions of high-value items.
May I ask... How many scrolls do you plan to auction, sir?"
Hughes was full of anticipation, waiting for the other party to give a definite answer.
"Do you think...this is enough?"
Lin Luo waved his hand lightly, and a large number of scrolls flew out of his ring like water and piled on the coffee table.
Then, he looked at the stunned Hughes and casually reminded him, "By the way, remember my name, Lorraine."
After he finished speaking, his gaze shifted to the auction table, as if he was indifferent to the one hundred scrolls on the coffee table.
Seeing this,
Hughes' eyes widened, his heart was beating like a drum, and his mouth was wide open in shock.
The excitement in his heart could no longer be expressed in words!
These are one hundred scrolls!
It wasn't just a dozen or twenty as he had imagined, but a full one hundred!
“Although the price will definitely drop if the quantity increases, but…
Even if a scroll is sold at three times the market price, it can be sold for three million.
These scrolls are..."
Thinking about the end, Hughes felt that he was wrapped in happiness.
This is a 300 million order!
Suddenly, the smile on Hughes' face froze, tears flowed from the corners of his eyes uncontrollably, and he felt a mixture of sadness and joy.
Little did he know that Lin Luo saw through the old man's thoughts.
Just when Hughes wanted to regret it, Lin Luo released a little of his mental pressure and said with a smile: "Look further ahead. Although you earn little now, you will definitely have a bright future.
so……
80:20 split, no change!"
His words were like a bucket of cold water, waking Hughes from his endless greed.
Intimidated by the mental force, Hughes slid off the chair, slumped to the ground, and stammered, "No, I won't.
Without Lord Lorraine's permission, I will never make any changes without authorization!"
The old man, who suddenly woke up, shuddered and looked at Lin Luo in horror.
Is this mind reading?
Or is it the innate ability to directly see through the mental fluctuations of others?
Hughes didn't dare to speculate too much and swallowed hard.
He stood up with forced composure and said respectfully to Lin Luo, who was examining various magical weapons, "Lord Luo Lin, if these one hundred scrolls were auctioned at the same time, their price would probably drop.
Moreover, it would be difficult for the mages in this marginal area to consume these scrolls.
Should we auction them separately?"
"Need not."
Lin Luo smiled and said slowly, "As you said, with more quantity, it is inevitable that the price will drop.
But you overlooked one thing.
Your theory is based on ordinary scrolls and does not apply to my Bajie scroll."
Seeing the thoughtful look on Hughes' face, Lin Luo didn't give him time to relax and continued, "The Phantom Exchange launched the Talent Potions to make money from those desperate people.
And what do you think the desperadoes lack the most in order to save their lives?"
"Is it strength?" Hughes asked tentatively.
"right!"
Lin Luo snapped his fingers and said calmly, "Their lack of strength makes it difficult for them to escape the pursuit of various forces.
Moreover, in addition to those mages who are bounty-hunted, the mages who roam the Warcraft territory all year round are also in urgent need of life-saving props.
Imagine this.
If you were them, and had the opportunity to obtain a scroll that was as powerful as a ninth-level scroll, but priced much lower than a ninth-level scroll.
Will you buy it?
Houston suddenly woke up as if from a dream and nodded, "If it were me, I would definitely buy it, and I would buy more than one!"
This is a life-saving prop, no one would think it is too much.
This is especially true for desperadoes.
Lin Luo didn't look at Hughes' expression and said calmly, "Alright, among these one hundred scrolls, defense, offense, healing, and protection spells each account for a quarter.
You can decide the price yourself."
"yes!"
Hughes put the scroll into his space ring, walked out of the box quickly, and went to arrange the auction.
Lin Luo was not worried that these mages would not have the money to buy scrolls.
after all,
The Phantom Exchange has been promoting the Talent Potions extensively. With these tempting potions, the mages who come to bid must have a large fortune in their pockets.
The only thing you need to worry about is the number of people who come to bid.
The quantity is too small, so it may be difficult to push up the price.
After Hughes left, Lin Luo's stern expression relaxed a lot, and he thought to himself:
"This old man has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. If it weren't for my strength to intimidate him, he would have undoubtedly turned hostile the moment I took out the scroll."
This is also the reason why he didn't treat Hughes well.
Hughes is certainly not a good person to have reached this position. He relies on cunning and greed.
After a long time,
The exchange was ready, and the time had arrived for the auction.
As a melodious piece of music sounded, the doors of the exchange opened and bidders in various attire filed in.
What Lin Luo was worried about did not happen. He still underestimated the appeal of the talent potion.
In less than ten minutes, the auction hall, which was as large as a large stadium, was filled with the influx of people.
There were even conflicts over seating, causing the venue, which was reinforced by magic patterns, to shake continuously.
Seeing this, the eighth-level mage who was maintaining order in the venue had to stand in the air and release pressure to intimidate everyone.
But the effect is not good,
The mages in the marginal areas live on the edge of a knife, so how can you easily mess with their tempers?
Tens of thousands of mages activated their magic power at the same time, hoping to join forces to confront the law enforcers.
But at this moment, Lin Luo suddenly sneered: "The Phantom Exchange is indeed not that simple."
Before he finished speaking,
The entire venue was filled with dense magical veins, and countless magic patterns appeared, bursting out with astonishing power.
Its specific strength is at least not weaker than level 85!
Tens of thousands of mages suddenly fell silent, not daring to say anything more.
"Interesting, another large alchemical magic weapon."
Lin Luo looked at the troublemaker with a smile, his eyes full of mockery.
In fact, he had already noticed something was wrong.
This auction venue is composed of multiple components, and the power of each component is actually only at the peak of level eight.
Only when all components work together can a large-scale formation be created, and its power will surge to the mid-ninth level.
Even after digesting all the knowledge about magic patterns, he couldn't help but admire it from the bottom of his heart:
“What a superb skill!”
and,
Lin Luo also saw something different in this auction venue.
The aura of rules on the magic pattern has not completely dissipated yet, which means that this venue was newly built not long ago!
As for the purpose of the Phantom Exchange, it certainly cannot be used to catch all the wanted criminals participating in the auction.
This is neither realistic nor worth the effort.
The auction house built with at least billions of magic crystals must have a greater role.
He touched his chin, looked at the mages wrapped tightly in robes, and guessed in his heart:
"Perhaps, they want to turn Shenglin Town into a sinful city on the fringes of the region."
If the Phantom Spirit Exchange operates in Shenglin Town for a long time, it may attract more lawless criminals.
The Phantom Exchange is a chamber of commerce after all. They have goods and the desperadoes have money. This is a simple and solid interest relationship.
"Forget it, why think so much? From now on, I will become a leek-cutting businessman."
Lin Luo leaned back tactically, lying comfortably on the chair, quietly waiting for the auction to officially open.
These mages who came here because of the gifted potion are all clusters of thriving leeks.
Not long after,
The seductive and charming host walked onto the stage, her beautiful golden waves reaching her waist.
"Welcome to the Phantom Exchange. I am the host, Cornelieve."
"In addition to the gifted potion today, there is another surprise waiting for everyone, that is... an unlimited eighth-level scroll!"
As soon as the host finished speaking, a noisy sighing sounded:
"Unrestricted eighth-level scroll? What kind of rubbish do you dare call a surprise?"
"That's right, a scroll that can only be kept for less than a month can be compared to a potion? Are you trying to bully us because we don't know the value of it?"
"I thought it was something good, but this is it?"
“…”
Seeing the insults getting louder and louder, the host's face turned ugly and he couldn't help but yelled:
"Give it to the old man... Ahem, all the masters of magic, please be quiet!
Could you please wait until I finish what I am saying before you make your judgment?"
The mages: "..."
