MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master

Chapter 544 System Auction (4)

Rudra was pleasently surprised when his king room saw exceptional room service by the auction house , as not only was he given premium refreshments , but also a private money transfer agent , that would instantly mobilize money if he needed it.

The agent was also a beautiful fairy wearing a suit which made it look extremely adorable , however her work was professional , as although she was in Rudra's room , she would keep a straight face towards the opposite wall , not peeking at what Rudra and Amelia were doing in the room , but only being stationed as security.

Surprisingly Rudra also recieved many invites from VIP rooms for a meet during the break , as his screen would show that ' VIP3 requests a meeting or VIP7 invites you to their room etc. '

Rudra was naturally not interested in coalitions , because he had very specific goal for this auction and his own capability was more than sufficient for the upcoming bidding . However he realized the threat of these meetings being permitted , as under the pressure of the bids , if one had an ally with a line of credit one room away the final result of the bid could change at any moment.

The only time Rudra raised an eyebrow was when king room 1 invited him over for a chat and while Rudra wanted to know the identity of the other king rooms , he was not overly curious either .

After counselling with Amelia, Rudra decided that it was not worth going , hence he ignored the invitation , neither accepting nor rejecting it , meaning that although he did not go over he did not mean any offense to the other party .

This was a smart move , as the king room 3 did the same , not responding to the invite by room one.

The mid auction show was entertaining as many faces performed many mini shows that were very impressive.

However with everyone having only money on their minds , the genuine appreciators of talents were very few , as the show was only a distraction from the main event.

Rudra spent his 8 hours leisurely strolling through the catalogue for interesting items , however regretfully he did not find another page of demon's diary in this phase of the auction , rendering his main purpose useless.

What was interesting however was the Skillbook [ One footed leap ] (Rare) , it was only a rare grade book , however Rudra had never seen any copies on the free market for a skill as functional as this.

The skill move used very little stamina in return for an explosive one legged jump that could be very useful in practical situations.

With a buyout pricetag of 1 million gold coins the item was listed at a ridiculously high price , however Rudra wanted to buy it nonetheless and he assumed it would fall in his lap in the reasonable range of 70-100,000 gold coins.

Other than that there were 3-4 interesting items in the auction, that Rudra would definitely bid for , however nothing earth shattering appeared at the moment.

Rudra was fairly certain that the best items would be kept reserved for the third phase where the real bidding would begin , nonetheless he was still more interested in the second phase of the auction than the first , as it displayed items that were otherwise unavailable in the free market or extremely rare at that.

Dronacharya was having a mini panic attack at the moment , as he distinctly remembered there being the key to the ancient ruins as a part of the second phase of the auction .

However the catalogue did not that item being a part of the second phase which led to dronacharya having a meltdown.

He seriously started to question the authenticity of his memory as time and time again it was giving him wrong information.

He distinctly remembered there being only two king auction rooms being in the previous auction of Parallax's life however this time there were three .

And the only item he came here to bid for was also missing.

These were huge variables that he had never considered , hence he was feeling lost and out of control , as he banged his head on the floor of his private room trying to figure out what was going wrong .

The buyout of the key was supposed to be 2 million gold coins , it was the amount that he had prepared for the auction beforehand , he had also factored that due to the different timeline prices maybe different , hence he had prepared 1000 times reserve incase of emergency. However at the time of the auction the item itself did not appear.

Maybe it went to the third phase after its price increase , thought dronacharya , however no matter how he thought about the situation he felt helpless . Nothing was going to plan in this accursed world.

The auctioneer started the second phase as there was a lot of excitement from the crowd.

The first item being sold was an ancient vase containing unknown liquid .

The auctioneer announced

Base price of the item : 50,000 gold

Minimum increment : 5000 gold

Buyout price : 1 million gold.

Please start the bidding.

The instant that the auctioneer Said those words there was absolute chaos in the auction hall , as nobody was able to make sense of who was bidding what in the frenzy.

Thankfully the AI was omnipotent and could make sense of the frenzy bidding with the Auctioneer always saying the right amount.

55,000

65,000

105,000

155,000

The bid skyrocketed in a matter of seconds and it was hard to keep track of who was bidding what for the general public , however thankfully Rudra had a private screen that tracked the log of who bid what in a perfectly arranged manner , giving him a better insight into what was going on.

Needless to say the item finally resulted in a buyout by one of the VIP boxes , as nothing excited the rich more than the unknown.

They would rather sleep knowing that the liquid inside the vase was trash , rather than waking up to find that a fish turned into a dragon with the help of the unknown liquid.

However none of the VIP+ boxes or the king boxes bid for the item .
