After the attribute upgrade was completed, Wang Fan had an idea and his consciousness once again immersed itself in the system space, entering the system auction house.
As usual, I chose the VIP room.
I had just stepped into that luxuriously decorated VIP room.
A graceful and beautiful maidservant greeted us with a smile. She was dressed in a gossamer-thin dress and bowed, saying, "Honorable guest, welcome back. A catalogue of the auction's highlights is ready for you to view."
Wang Fan was taken aback. When did the system make such thoughtful arrangements?
He couldn't help but wonder if there had been some new changes to the system.
While there have been some conveniences when entering the system's auction house in the past, there has never been such thoughtful service.
He looked at the maid in front of him, his mind filled with doubt.
"You...you were newly assigned by the system?" Wang Fan couldn't help but ask.
The maid smiled and replied, "Yes, sir. As a valued customer, the system provides you with even more attentive service."
Wang Fan looked around curiously and casually asked, "Since it's a VIP service, besides this detailed catalog, are there any other special features? Like... a massage or something? I'm quite sore all over from all this travel."
The maid chuckled softly, covering her mouth, and nodded, saying, "Of course, sir. Our VIP rooms are equipped with massage services. Through special massage techniques, we can relieve your fatigue and improve your circulation, allowing you to participate in the auction in the best possible condition. Just give the order, and we can arrange it for you immediately."
Wang Fan's eyes lit up. "Then what are we waiting for? Give me one first."
As soon as he finished speaking, two maids dressed in thin gauze emerged from the side room.
They moved gracefully to Wang Fan's side and gestured for him to lie down on the soft bed next to him.
Wang Fan lay down as instructed, and the two maids began to perform massage techniques.
Their hands, like nimble butterflies, gently landed on Wang Fan.
With just the right amount of pressure, pinching, kneading, pressing, and pushing, Wang Fan felt all the muscles in his body relax instantly.
The soreness from the battle vanished, replaced by a warm and comfortable sensation that spread throughout my body.
While enjoying the massage, Wang Fan did not forget his business. He flipped through the catalog and asked the maid, "How difficult is it to bid on the treasures in this catalog? I don't want to end up with nothing."
As the maid adjusted the pressure of his touch, she replied, "Sir, the treasures on the catalog have all been carefully selected and are naturally highly sought after. Some of these treasures even require bartering, such as that fifth-tier equipment, the Fire Rift Bow."
"It is forged from fire crystals, and the bowstring is made from the tendons of a fifth-tier fire beast. The arrows it shoots have fire attributes and are incredibly powerful. To bid for this treasure, gold coins alone are not enough; you must also offer rare and precious items of equal value."
Upon hearing this, Wang Fan's heart stirred. He stopped flipping through the catalog and asked, "Then do you know what kind of rare treasures are needed to exchange for this Fire-Splitting Bow? I do have a few rare items on me; let's see if they meet the requirements."
After a moment's thought, the maid said, "The owner of the Fire Rift Bow is obsessed with improving his own strength and has been searching for rare and precious materials that can greatly enhance his attributes. If you can offer a treasure that can enhance your attributes, the chances of obtaining the Fire Rift Bow will be very high."
Wang Fan's eyes lit up; he remembered that he had obtained quite a few Green Wood Fruits last time.
Although each Greenwood Fruit can only increase attributes by five points, a large quantity should be enough to impress the other party.
He hurriedly rummaged through his storage bag and found a few greenwood fruits. Each fruit was emerald green with a faint halo around its surface, and a refreshing fragrance wafted through the air.
Wang Fan handed the Green Wood Fruit to the maid and asked, "What do you think of these Green Wood Fruits? Each one can increase your attributes by five points, and I have quite a few here."
The maid took a Greenwood Fruit, examined it carefully, and felt the energy contained within. She nodded slightly and said, "Although the Greenwood Fruit doesn't increase attributes by much each time, its quantity is considerable, and continuous consumption can significantly improve strength. However, whether it can be exchanged for the Fire Rift Bow depends on the Fire Rift Bow's owner's decision."
A glimmer of hope ignited in Wang Fan's heart, and he pressed on, "Then how can we contact the owner of the Fire Rift Bow and confirm this matter as soon as possible?"
The maid smiled and said, "Please be patient, sir. The auction house has a dedicated intermediary service. You only need to give me the Greenwood Fruit, and I will pass it on to the auction house's appraisers for evaluation. They will then communicate and negotiate with the owner of the Fire-Splitter Bow. If the other party is interested, they will give you a reply soon."
Without further hesitation, Wang Fan handed all the Green Wood Fruits to the maid.
The maid carefully put it away, bowed again, and turned to leave the VIP room to handle the relevant matters.
While waiting, Wang Fan felt a little uneasy.
He knew the importance of the Firebow to the team, especially when they were about to face the Guardian Ice Beast.
This powerful long-range weapon might just turn the tide of battle at a crucial moment.
Wang Fan couldn't help but wonder what kind of person could bring out such a precious treasure as a fifth-tier equipment for auction.
It should be noted that most people are currently at around Tier 2 strength, and their equipment is similar, at most Tier 3.
Before he could think it through, the maidservant hurried back with a smile on her face: "Congratulations, guest. The owner of the Fire-Splitting Bow is very interested in the Greenwood Fruit, but he hopes to meet with you to make a deal as a token of his sincerity."
Wang Fan was overjoyed, not expecting things to proceed so smoothly.
But then he became wary, after all, meeting a mysterious figure who could produce fifth-tier equipment was something no one knew what might happen.
However, for the sake of the Fire-Splitting Bow and for the team's chances of winning, he gritted his teeth, nodded, and said, "Okay, where shall we meet?"
The maid replied, "They are already waiting in the VIP meeting room of the auction house. Please rest assured that the auction house has strict confidentiality measures in place to ensure the safety of both parties in the transaction."
Wang Fan straightened his clothes, took a deep breath, and followed the maid to the VIP private meeting room.
Throughout the journey, he kept thinking about how to deal with the situation after meeting the mysterious person, while also being filled with curiosity about him.
As he pushed open the door to the private meeting room, a powerful and mysterious aura rushed out.
Inside the private meeting room, a person dressed in a white robe, whose face was hidden in the shadows, was quietly waiting for him.
As soon as Wang Fan stepped into the room, he keenly sensed some subtle signs and vaguely felt that the mysterious person in front of him was likely a woman.
Judging from the silhouette outlined by the white robe, the lines were soft and smooth.
Although her figure was slightly obscured by the loose robe, her exquisite curves were still undeniable.
Moreover, there seemed to be a faint, elegant fragrance lingering in the air.
Unlike the strong incense used by ordinary men, it has a fresh and elegant charm.
