Chapter 146 Auction begins
The next day, half past one in the afternoon.
Su Yuan and Geng Qiuyi followed the flow of people to the second floor of Tianshu Hotel.
There are uniformed waiters standing everywhere to meet and guide the distinguished guests participating in the auction.
"Hello gentlemen, this is today's auction guide."
A clean and handsome male waiter distributed a brochure to Su Yuan and Geng Qiuyi.
After the two of Su Yuan took it, they directly entered the auction venue.
"What a big venue!"
Geng Qiuyi and Su Yuan came in from the door, and suddenly felt dark in front of them, looking around, there were already hundreds of people sitting in the huge venue.
Su Yuan looked at it for a while, then slowly said: "And most of them are silver-level, and there are very few bronze-level."
"After all, the entry qualification alone requires 200 centimeter star stones, which is quite a lot for an ordinary bronze-level star card master..." Geng Qiuyi turned to look at Su Yuan, "Of course, monsters like you are excluded."
Su Yuan shook his head, and glanced at the tickets for the two of them.
"No. 243 and No. 244, let's go."
The two came to the back of the venue and sat down.
Geng Qiuyi said: "There is another floor upstairs with several boxes."
"It should be some dignified guests, not like us youngsters."
Su Yuan responded casually, and then swept towards the venue again.
Around the sidelines, there are quite a few masters from the Big Dipper Consortium with deep auras in charge of security. All of them are above silver, and there are several gold players.
Of course, this Tianshu Hotel is one of the important strongholds of the Beidou Consortium. There are scorching sun-level masters sitting in it all year round, and ordinary people will definitely not end well if they want to make trouble.
As for the customers who participated in the auction, many of them were around the same age as Su Yuan and some of them were wearing the school uniform of the Magic Capital Academy.
"In addition to the star card masters in the society, there are quite a few college students." Su Yuan said slowly.
"Well, the scale this time is not small. In addition to the Magic Capital Academy, there are students from the surrounding Yuanzhou and Xinzhou."
Su Yuan nodded, and checked the auction guide given by the waiter at the door just now.
"Sure enough, there is a Phoenix Nirvana Stone!"
Su Yuan's eyes lit up, and he saw a large orange-red stone at the back of the illustration book.
The patterns on this booklet were originally projected with star power in order to perfectly present the lot.
At this time, the stone has a gradient from bright yellow to red from the inside to the outside, and the flames flow on the paper, lifelike.
"Hmm!" Geng Qiuyi was also a little excited, "That's it!"
Su Yuan looked at other products again, only to find that the first product and the last three products have no clear content, only a little information.
"Three finale items? A star tool from the famous master craftsman in the magic city, the star core of a rare star beast, and a top-level enhanced star card of blue quality."
Looking at the auction book in his hand, Su Yuan thought secretly.
Based on these descriptions and values, we can roughly guess the general situation of these three finale items.
First of all, the top-level enhanced star card should be a T1-level blue star card, otherwise it cannot be used as the finale.
But I already have the Great Sun Burning Body Art, so I don't need to strengthen the star card.
Secondly, star artifacts cannot be purple epic star artifacts. That is too precious, and it is enough to be placed in the high-level field as the finale item.
On Blue Sea Star, those who forge blue star vessels are called masters, and those who forge epic star vessels are called masters.
Since this star artifact was made by a master craftsman and not an epic star artifact, it can only be a blue star artifact of excellent quality.
I was originally rushing to take pictures of the Phoenix Nirvana to create a blue star vessel, no matter how good the blue star vessel appears, it has nothing to do with me, unless it is a space attribute star vessel.
"As for the star core of a certain rare star beast..."
Su Yuan frowned slightly, it was hard to guess.
In the lower three levels, master star beasts are very rare.
In addition to the problem of extraction probability, two or three master star cores may not be able to extract a blue star card, which makes blue cards even rarer and more valuable.
So even the value of a gold-level master star core is at most about the same as an ordinary blue star card.
Logically speaking, it is impossible to be the finale.
"Rare star beast, how rare is it..."
Su Yuan was thinking about it when the lights in the venue suddenly changed and gradually focused on the front of the venue.
"Here we come!" Geng Qiuyi's eyes lit up, and he whispered.
Su Yuan nodded, looked up at the front countertop, and a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old classic beauty walked up to the countertop in front of the hall.
This woman has an oval face, looks dignified, and behaves generously. She is wearing an elegant and generous white gown. She has a unique temperament. As soon as she came on stage, she attracted everyone's attention.
And more importantly, she didn't hide the star power fluctuations on her body, she was a master of the gold level!
"Good afternoon everyone, I am Chen Junyan from the Beidou Consortium, and I am in charge of hosting this auction."
The woman bowed and saluted, and then introduced:
"There are a total of 48 lots in this auction. Some of them come from famous refining masters, some come from hidden sects, some come from secret realms that have been opened every few years, and some even come from northern countries!"
Hearing this, someone has already started talking in a low voice.
"There are still foreign things, the Beidou consortium is really not simple!"
"Well, there were very few items from other countries in previous auctions."
…
Chen Junyan introduced the content and rules of the auction in detail, and finally said with a smile: "If you don't have enough star stones, you can apply to exchange them with our Beidou consortium on the spot.
Star cores, star cards, materials, intelligence, antiquities...anything of value is fine, we will have professional personnel in charge of appraisal, and give you a price that is enough to satisfy you.
Okay, I believe everyone is here to see the baby, not to listen to my nonsense.
I won't say much more, next, please come to the first treasure of this auction... Golden Phoenix Pecking Jade Knife! "
As soon as Chen Junyan finished speaking, two beautiful waitresses in their early twenties and wearing black dresses brought things up on a silver tray.
It was a short knife carved from gold and jade, about a foot long, with a golden phoenix hitting the sky on the blade, even if viewed from a distance, it made people feel a little sharp and glaring.
Chen Junyan took the dagger, looked at everyone on the field and said, "I think many people may think that this dagger looks flashy after seeing its super gorgeous appearance, but in fact..."
Chen Junyan took a piece of fist-sized grade 2 black water steel from the silver plate of another waitress next to her, picked up the dagger and swiped it lightly, and easily cut off the whole piece of black water steel.
"Isn't Heishui Steel known for its hardness, why was it cut open in one go?"
"Ordinary blue star vessels will definitely not be able to do it!"
…
Chen Junyan's hand, everyone in the auction venue was shocked, and they all carefully looked at the golden phoenix dagger in her hand.
Although Chen Junyan is a gold-level player, there are also many gold-level experts in the field, and there are several of them sitting at the front.
Chen Junyan did not use star power just now, nor did she exert much force, and the piece of black water steel, which is not low in hardness among secondary materials, was smoothly cut by Jinfeng short knife like a piece of tofu!
"When it comes up, it's a blue star!"
Su Yuan's eyes froze slightly. This is definitely a blue star vessel, and it is quite an extraordinary blue star vessel!
Geng Qiuyi also had a serious expression on his face. Although he thought that a good thing might be brought out to enliven the atmosphere at the opening of the auction, he didn't expect it to be such a good thing.
For star card masters, sharpness is definitely one of the most critical basic attributes of weapons!
Even if it has no other characteristics, just this point alone, this golden phoenix pecking knife is enough to be among the top-grade blue star vessels!
Chen Junyan saw that there were endless discussions at the scene, and after waiting for a while, she smiled and said: "This golden phoenix pecking jade knife is from the hand of Liu Chuyun, a former genius refiner of Modu Academy and a new star refiner of my Beidou Consortium. .
It is made of lead, agarwood, gold, and broken gold and jade, combined with a little rare golden phoenix blood. It is a blue star tool that brings "sharpness" to the extreme. Say no more! "
Everyone in the audience nodded secretly.
"Master Liu Izuyun's work, no wonder, the starware he created has always been elegant and gorgeous, and is very popular among female star card masters..."
"This golden phoenix pecking jade knife is not only liked by female star card masters... With such a high sharpness, it can be regarded as the best among blue star weapons.
"It seems that the Fanhua series of star devices launched by Beidou not long ago is also his handwriting. I guess he is waiting for this opportunity to sell him together."
…
Su Yuan and Geng Qiuyi are not from the Modu side, so they don’t know each other very well.
However, hearing people talking about it, it is obvious that this master craftsman named Liu Chuyun is very famous.
Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Chen Junyan said at the right time: "The golden phoenix pecking knife that destroys gold and jade, the starting price is 500%, and each increase must not be less than 20%!"
The starting price is a bit higher than that of an ordinary blue star card, which can be said to be very low. Even the worst blue star vessel is worth a thousand cents!
However, at auctions, most of the starting prices are very low, and the resulting auction prices are higher than the actual prices.
Of course, there are reasons for the influence of the bidding atmosphere at the auction.
But more importantly, the items offered at the auction, regardless of their quality, are indeed relatively rare and rare items.
Otherwise, I bought it directly in the mall, so how could I come to the auction to bid with others.
At this time, as soon as Chen Junyan finished speaking, someone immediately offered an offer.
"500%!"
"600%!"
"800%!"
…
"1800%!"
It didn't take long for the price to be pushed to 1800%.
And 1800% is almost the price of a better blue star vessel.
After reaching this price, fewer people bid on the Golden Phoenix Pecking Jade Knife.
Judging from the quality of Jinfeng Pecking Jade Knife, it must be worth more than this price, at least 2200% is worth it.
It's just that the Golden Phoenix Pecking Jade Knife is a short knife after all, and there are relatively few star card masters who use short knives. After all, an inch is short and an inch is dangerous. If you lose your life, you will lose everything.
There are only three people who are still competing. They are a black-faced middle-aged man in a black robe, a petite girl, and another middle-aged woman.
The three of them looked at the golden phoenix pecking the jade knife on the stage, and there were many scorching colors in their eyes.
But even though he wanted it, he became more and more careful about raising the price.
"1850%!"
"1900%!"
"1950%!"
"2000%!"
…
At this moment, a rather clear and pleasant voice came from the box upstairs:
"2200%!"
This person directly raised the price by 200%!
Suddenly, the three people who had just bid for the auction fell silent, and their expressions were not very good-looking.
Geng Qiuyi smacked his lips: "People in Shanghai are really rich."
Su Yuan said with a smile: "After all, this is the economic center of Dayan. Of course, there are more rich people than our remote demons."
On the stage, Chen Junyan originally thought that it was almost the same time, but unexpectedly, there was a VIP in the box participating in the bidding, and the price was greatly raised. She couldn't help being overjoyed, and greeted excitedly:
"VIP No. 2 bid 2,200%! 2,200%, is there any VIP who is willing to bid?
The golden phoenix pecking jade knife destroys the gold and breaks the jade. For star card masters who follow the assassin route, it is absolutely the best weapon! "
The dark-faced middle-aged man and the petite girl struggled for a while, but finally gave up.
But the middle-aged woman gritted her teeth and said again: "2300%!"
"2500 cents." The No. 2 box almost followed closely behind and said lightly, as if this amount of money was nothing in his eyes.
The middle-aged woman looked towards the No. 2 private room, sighed, shook her head and stopped bidding.
"2500 centimeters for the first time,"
"The second time at 2500 centimeters..."
"2500% for the third time...sold!"
Chen Junyan was delighted but also a little regretful. If the middle-aged woman raised the price again, the people in box 2 might call it down again.
Chen Junyan put the Golden Phoenix Pecking Jade Knife back on the plate, and the maid gave it to the guest in private room No. 2, and then began to auction the next item again.
"Next, we will continue to auction the second item, a spear with green quality and piercing properties..."
