The auction at Wanwulou is still ongoing.
With the Radiant Lord's Mansion leading the way, the subsequent auctions were unsurprisingly heated.
There were indeed quite a few good items, but the real highlight was nowhere to be found; it was clearly left for last by Si Meng.
During this time, Ye Chen and Fatty also made a lot of purchases, including various seeds that they urgently needed, as well as architectural blueprints for a few special buildings.
Of course, most of the transactions are in the form of magic crystals, which is probably the last thing they have in abundance right now.
Time passed slowly, and the auction gradually drew to a close. The items that Si Meng brought out became increasingly rare.
"Next up for auction is a batch of stone golems. I don't need to elaborate on the value of these, do I?" Si Meng smiled as she brought up a huge stone golem, which immediately caused quite a stir.
"It has been verified that these stone golems can exert combat power ranging from level 0 to level 2, depending on the magic crystals placed inside them."
"Excluding high-intensity battles, a Tier 0 magic crystal can last for about a month."
"A total of 60 items, sold in packs of 10. Starting bid is 20 Tier 2 Magic Crystals, or other special items will be given priority. Bidding begins now."
As Si Meng finished speaking, bids began to rise and fall in the arena. Soon, the price of a set of stone golems was bid up to 30 Tier 2 magic crystals, and it was still rising.
Both Ye Chen and Fatty were surprised by the price; the popularity of the stone golem far exceeded their expectations.
"No way? Stone golems are that valuable in a newbie world?" the fat man asked in surprise. On Blue Star, this thing is only worth 3 Tier 2 magic crystals.
“Take a closer look. The ones making the bids are all lords of beast-like clans. They must desperately need stone golems to develop their territories. Otherwise, relying solely on killing dark creatures would be too simplistic and too restrictive,” Ye Chen said after looking at the lords making the bids.
Lords who are randomly assigned to a beast-kin are arguably the most unfortunate, because beasts cannot communicate directly with lords, nor can they engage in farming, construction, or other similar activities. The early development of their territory relies entirely on plundering from the outside world or on the lord's own hands-on farming.
The appearance of the stone golems solved this problem for them. These seemingly clumsy giants could easily handle basic farming and construction work, allowing their territory to develop.
Ultimately, the first batch of stone golems was sold for 60 Tier 2 magic crystals, averaging 6 Tier 2 magic crystals per golem, which is considered a 100% premium.
Moreover, the prices of the subsequent sets of stone golems remained high, especially after the last set was displayed by Si Meng, when someone even offered special items for trade.
"I want this batch of stone golems, and a workshop design blueprint. Anyone else want to compete with me?" A tall man stood up and shouted, holding up a stack of blueprints.
Workshop blueprints are not special buildings, but compared to workshops built from blueprints, workshops synthesized from blueprints will have certain operational bonuses, so they are generally not traded using magic crystals.
Only on Blue Star can transactions be conducted using the universal Blue Star currency. Converted, these blueprints are basically worth hundreds of thousands of Tier 1 magic crystals.
Ye Chen looked at the man, who appeared to be very fierce and bold, and beside him lay a golden lion at the peak of the second tier.
Despite their unremarkable name, they are a race whose strength is no less than that of dragons, and they possess extremely formidable combat power once they grow up.
"A workshop blueprint, any other bids? This is the last set of stone golems!" Si Meng kept shouting. The price of the blueprint was definitely higher than that of the magic crystals, so no one continued to bid for a while.
In the end, the last set of stone golems was sold for the price of a workshop blueprint, which was satisfactory to Ye Chen.
"With the workshop blueprints, we can do a lot of things. Just like your goblin, he now has a place specifically for researching and manufacturing things!" Ye Chen said with a smile after the stone golem transaction was completed.
"That's right. I'm suddenly getting more and more confident in my goblins. No, I need to recruit some more goblins when I get back. It's just a matter of brains, watch me!" the fat man said with great enthusiasm. The successful transaction of the stone golem gave him immense confidence.
"Wow, the Stone Golems are incredibly popular! Unfortunately, time is tight, so there are only 60 Stone Golems available for trading today. Perhaps the Myriad Things Pavilion can find more Stone Golems later?" After the transaction was completed, Si Meng didn't forget to pique everyone's curiosity.
Upon hearing that stone golems could be traded, everyone became quite excited, with some even asking when the next batch of goods would arrive. Si Meng naturally wouldn't answer that question, and the conversation quickly shifted to the next batch of auction items.
"The next batch of auction items and the stone golem came from the same lord. As for the items, they are the familiar magic crystal bombs."
"After verification, the highest record of this magic crystal bomb is that it can kill a level 2 Vicious Rabbit. Its power is comparable to that of the more technologically advanced magic crystal bombs on Earth."
"There are 150 of these magic crystal bombs in this batch. They will be auctioned in groups of 50, with a starting price of 50 Tier 1 magic crystals. Special items will be given priority in the auction."
