The auction price quickly reached one million federal coins. The two fox beauties blinked their big watery eyes pitifully, and their frightened expressions were particularly attractive.
But Oakland, his eyes covered by the furry little ball in his arms, was completely focused on his jealous Tiger, and didn't pay attention to the beautiful scenery. And even if he did, it would be useless. With Ivan Percy's status, he definitely couldn't afford such a large sum of money.
In the end, the fox sisters were bought for 1.2 million federal coins. As long as the buyer paid the full amount after the auction, they could take the sisters away. No one dared to default on their debt in the Blood Moon Pirates' territory; otherwise, they would not be able to leave alive.
"Congratulations, guest number 52." Angel smiled as she had the large cage taken away. Then she said to the crowd, "Now, let's move on to our second lot today."
The second item for auction is the wreckage of a small private starship. Although the exterior is a bit tattered, the internal frame structure is still there, and the energy drive engine is intact. The flying speed is not much slower than that of a shuttle. It can still be used after renovation. Although it is a bit troublesome, the cost-effectiveness is still good.
"Starting price: one million federal coins, increments of one hundred thousand each."
There are still many people who want such a private starship, and the bidding has become fierce again.
Auckland still sat there calmly. He had no interest in modifying the starship. Instead, he would rather practice hard. Once he succeeded in his practice, wouldn't he be able to roam freely in the sky and on the earth?
Several more unusual items appeared at auction, the most bizarre of which was probably the Golden Man from the Golden Planet. The Golden Man's skin was completely golden, even his blood was golden. Unfortunately... it wasn't real gold, but a unique color. Standing still, the Golden Man resembled a statue, but in motion, he possessed a unique beauty. While not intelligent, the Golden Man was incredibly obedient. Buying one would make him both a mobile decoration and a loyal servant.
In the end, the transaction price of the golden man was 800,000 federal coins.
"Next is the forty-second auction item, a substandard mecha storage box. It has a storage space of one cubic meter. While it can't fit a mecha, it can still hold a lot of things that are inconvenient to carry around. The boxes have been redesigned to be lighter and more compact. There are six in total. They will be auctioned in batches. The first batch consists of two. The starting price is 200,000 Federation Coins, and each bid will be in increments of 50,000 Federation Coins."
Auckland raised his eyebrows slightly. These mecha storage boxes were actually made by him. He didn't expect Arnold to be so quick and directly bring these newly made mecha storage boxes to the auction.
Considering only a cubic meter of storage space, the price was quite high, but someone did buy it. In the end, the deal was completed for two units at 300,000 federal coins.
The following items for auction included coats of arms, mechas, potions, and weapons, which were quite diverse, but the thing that Auckland was interested in never showed up.
Two hours passed by unknowingly, and the auction finally came to an end.
"The following items are precious artifacts from the ancient ruins of Blue Star." As Angel finished speaking, someone approached, carrying exquisite gift boxes filled with antiques, including the very bead Auckland had set his sights on. In the video Auckland had seen online, the bead had originally been round and pale red, its surface appearing somewhat dull. Now, it had turned blood red, evidently cleansed by the people, removing the crust of dirt that had accumulated over the years.
The blood-red bead was incredibly strange. When Oakland saw it, his eyes widened, and his hand tightly grasped Hall's small paw. He sensed an unusual aura from the bead. Could this be...
At this time, Angel introduced the origins of these items, their possible uses, etc., one by one, and all of them were marked with high prices.
The starting price of those tattered old books is 800,000 federal coins, and the starting price of the bead of unknown purpose is also not low, 300,000 federal coins.
This auction house is really heartless to set such a high price without even knowing its purpose.
All those books and other things were sold at prices exceeding one million, and finally it was the turn of this bead.
"The starting price is 300,000 federal coins, and each bid will be increased by 50,000 federal coins."
As soon as Angel finished speaking, the big screen behind her began to scroll rapidly.
Auckland did not join the bidding immediately. He waited quietly for a while and only started bidding after the initial heated bidding was over. He was determined to win this pearl.
When the number 68, 800,000, appeared on the big screen, Jason couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Auckland beside him, "Master Ivan, are you bidding?"
"Yes."
"Do you have enough money?" Jason almost reminded him directly that defaulting on debts is not allowed in the Blood Moon Pirates' territory.
Auckland smiled and said, "I've saved quite a bit of money from making coats of arms these days, so it should be enough."
Jason then remembered that Ivan Percy was once a renowned young herald genius. It was a shame that Lancelot suddenly appeared, surpassing the young genius and ultimately affecting his mental strength...
The beads looked very beautiful, and since Alvin liked them, Jason didn't try to persuade him any further.
At the beginning, there were still people bidding against Auckland, but when the price exceeded one million, there were fewer people bidding. After all, it was an object of unknown purpose. What if it turned out to be of no use after buying it? Wouldn't that be a waste of so much money?
In the end, Oakland bought the blood-red bead for 1.2 million federal dollars.
Auckland had no interest in the subsequent auction items. He whispered to Jason, "Mr. Jason, do we have to wait until the auction is over before we leave, or can we leave now?"
"You can leave anytime, but you have to settle your bill first."
"Of course." Oakland paused and said, "Then let's go? It's getting late."
"Okay." Jason stood up first. There was someone guarding the aisle. When he saw them stand up, he immediately turned on the flashlight in his hand to illuminate the way for them and led them towards the exit.
The checkout area is right at the exit. There is a small room where all the auction items are displayed and there are several fully armed guards.
"We are number 68." Jason spoke first.
The person in charge of collecting the money checked it on the computer and said, "One red bead, 1.2 million federal coins."
Auckland asked him to scan it on his computer, and a payment message popped up. After Auckland clicked confirm, the transaction was successful.
"Dear guest, thank you for your patronage. Here are your red beads." After confirming the successful payment, the man handed him the box containing the blood-red beads with a smile.
Auckland followed Jason out of the auction house holding the box.
Jason contacted his subordinates using the communicator, and the car drove over.
Oakland got into the car holding the box, and Hall jumped onto his legs, stretching out his paws to try to pull the box away.
"No, you can't move now." Oakland quickly held down Hall's claws. Now was not the time to study the bead carefully because there were people all around.
"Ouch..." Hall cried out reluctantly, barely holding it in. He was now a demon cultivator, and his sensitivity to spiritual energy was very keen. This bead didn't actually contain much spiritual energy, but it did have another kind of power that attracted him very much, making him itch.
The author has something to say: 【Happy Little Theater①】——Xin'er

Jason: He won't treat you as his wife, will he?
Lanlan thought secretly: What? She is my wife.
Hall: Oh wow~ That’s it?
