Chapter 40 The Mysterious Stone

As soon as the auctioneer Lao Zhong finished speaking, the whole inquiry was silent.

I saw a tall maid, very sexy, extremely beautiful and graceful, walking up with a plate.

There were so many big men in the hall, but none of them looked at the waitress. Everyone looked at the plate in her hand.

A silk squid was covered with a plate, making it impossible to see what was inside.

The waitress held the plate in her hand and placed it on the table in front of the auctioneer Lao Zhong, then turned around and walked down.

After seeing the waitress walking down, the auctioneer Lao Zhong looked around and said.

"The first item for auction today will be announced soon, please see it."

After saying that, he opened the silk scutellar. Everyone stared at the silk scutellar that the auctioneer unveiled, hoping to know what was inside as soon as possible. After all, this was the first auction item at this auction.

“The first item sold at this auction is…”

Lao Zhong dragged his voice long and he continued to say when everyone started to look at him with dissatisfaction.

"Life Soul Pill!"

"Wow, the first auction item is the Life Soul Pill, it's indeed a large auction!"

Everyone was excited. In the past, even the lowest level of Life Soul Pill was one of the final auction items and would not be placed in front, let alone the first one.

Old Zhong picked up the small bottle under the silk scutellar, held it in his hand, and then introduced.

"There are 10 pieces of life soul pills in total, and they are auctioned at one time. These life soul pills are waste pills from the eighth-level life soul masters of the Dark Empire royal family. However, even if it is a waste pill, the probability of upgrading life souls can reach 40%.

It is not possible to upgrade the life soul with the Life Soul Pill. In this continent, there is no difference between good and bad in the life soul master.

A better life soul master can increase this probability to more than 50%, and a level eight life soul master can generally reach about 60%. Feng Ping, as the number one life soul master in the mainland, can increase this probability to more than 950%. It can almost be said to be guaranteed, but it is only almost the case.

The improvement of the level of the Life Soul Level can only be performed before the age of six, and it can only be improved once a year. The Life Soul Pill can only be taken once every six months. If it is a Life Soul Pill of less than 50%, even if it is used two times a year, it cannot be guaranteed to be upgraded.

However, what ordinary people and ordinary families can own is only a 20% chance of affording 30% of the probability. This can reach 40% of the time, which is enough for ordinary families on the mainland to compete for.

"The starting price is 5,000 taels, now everyone starts starting the auction."

"Five thousand one hundred taels!" The first person to bid was the big man who spoke to Lao Zhong at the beginning.

"Five thousand two hundred taels!"

...

Qingping and Xue Ming were the first time they participated in such an auction, and they did not bid. They just looked at them. For Qingping and others, things like the Life Soul Pill are the most useless, because no matter how their Life Soul Pill is used, they cannot be upgraded.

"I didn't expect that the starting price of the Life Soul Pill with a success rate of only 40% is 500 taels per pill. Take one every six months. I'm not lucky and cannot increase it in two years. So many people are still chasing me." Qingping said to Xue Ming.

Xue Ming had not answered yet, but an old man next to her said.

"Young people don't know anything. Ten years ago, no one wants a Life Soul Pill with a success rate of less than 50% is needed. After all, the success rate is too low, so the Life Soul Master can hardly survive if he is less than level 8. However, I don't know what happened in the past ten years. More and more people have Life Soul Pills on the mainland have become scarce, which has led to the auctions in recent years. The Life Soul Pills, even the Life Soul Pills with a 50% probability, will be the final auction."

"So that's it, thank you for solving the problem." Qingping finally understood the reason. Xue Ming looked at Qingping and sneered, because she knew that the final cause of all this was Qingping in front of her.

"It's okay, young man, old man likes you." After saying that, he looked at the auction again.

The price in the field has increased to 10,000 taels of silver, and two or three people are still competing for it.

The bidding in the lobby did not make any noise in the private room. Auctions at this level cannot attract the VIPs in the private room.

"Ten thousand taels!" has become an increase of one thousand taels at a time.

"Damn it, the Life Soul Pill with only 40% probability has reached this price, so I quit." Another person quit.

"Ten thousand two thousand taels!"

"Ten thousand taels!"

One of the remaining people directly increased the price to 15,000 taels, and everyone exclaimed.

Ten5,000 taels, an ordinary family can only earn about 1,000 taels in their lifetime. If you can give such a price, the Life Soul Pill with a 40% probability is already a level that a medium-sized family can take without any damage.

The other person obviously could not give a higher price and announced his withdrawal, without further increase.

"Is there anyone else to bid? Ten thousand taels at one time!"

"Ten fifteen thousand taels, twice!"

"Ten thousand five thousand taels, three times!"

Old Zhong knocked the table with a hammer and said.

"Trade! Congratulations to this brother for getting the first item in the auction today. I also asked this brother for it. After the auction is over, I will take the license plate to the backend of the auction house to get the auction item."

Then several auction items were auctioned, most of which were around 20,000 taels of silver, and some medium-sized families were competing for it.

The old man next to Xue Ming said to Xue Ming and the others: "This auction is indeed much higher than in previous years. Even if you can't buy it, it's worth it."

———

"The seventh item sold today is revealed below."

Lao Zhong uncovered the silk scutellar, everyone looked at the plate and found that there was only a stone inside, shining.

"Everyone has photographed a lot of good things before. Now this item was obtained by an elder in our auction house while exploring deep in the Warcraft Forest. However, after many elders in the auction house, they could not see what this thing was. It was called a stone, but it contained a lot of energy. However, no matter what method was used, we could not open it. However, the result of the auction house inspection was that it contained at least the sum of powers of no less than a hundred or even thousands of peak holy powerhouses."

"Can such a small stone contain so much energy?" Everyone below was obviously incredible about this.

"This is a conclusion drawn by dozens of Saint-level powerful men in the auction house. The starting price is now 10,000 taels of silver."

Although Lao Zhong introduced it very beautifully, even if the starting price is not as good as the previous auction items, no one has raised the price.

No one here is a fool. Dozens of holy-level powerful people in the Jialan Auction House were unable to see what this stone was, nor could they get the energy in it. Although it was beautiful, what's the use of such flashy things even if they took them back by themselves?

Seeing that everyone did not respond, Lao Zhong said, "If you can take out the energy in it and let one person absorb it, at least one person who has not practiced can reach the level of immortality or above."

After Lao Zhong said that, everyone still didn't respond.

Just as Lao Zhong was about to remove the stone, a shout rang out from below.

"Ten thousand and one taels."

Everyone looked at the source of the sound and found that it was Qingping and his group.

The old man next to him just reminded: "Young man, although such a stone is very good, ten thousand taels are nothing for the VIPs in the private room, but for us, it is not a small amount. It is not worth buying a stone that is not good to use when you go back."

"Old man, thank you for your reminder. I just felt destined to be with that stone, so I bought it."

"Oh, young man." Everyone sighed in their hearts when they heard Qingping's words, and ignored Qingping.

What everyone didn't know was that before Lao Zhong opened the silk scutellar, Qingping felt something attracting him, so he guessed that there should be something that was very important to him.

When Lao Zhong took off the silk handkerchief and exposed the stones inside, the feeling was even more obvious.

Especially the armor on the chest, I felt like I was about to rush out, and I wanted to combine it with the stone.

So when Qingping confirmed that no one could bid, he shouted out the price one tael higher than the lowest price.

When Lao Zhong saw someone bidding, he shouted.

"Okay, this little brother has offered 10,000 taels, is there anyone else going to bid?"

Seeing that no one was calling for a price, Lao Zhong continued.

"Ten thousand and one taels, once."

"Ten thousand and one taels, twice."

"Ten thousand and one taels, three times."

"The deal is completed, this stone belongs to this little brother now. Please ask this little brother. After the auction is over, take the license plate to the backend of the auction house to get the auction item."

Lao Zhong hammered the hammer and announced the deal.

Qingping nodded with satisfaction, and Xue Ming was puzzled to see, so he asked in a voice transmission.

"What is this stone?"

"I don't know either. But as soon as it came out, the close-fitting armor on my body felt a throbbing. I have never felt this way in so many years, so I think it should be related to that."

"That piece of armor that Grandpa Feng Ping gave you to protect yourself?"

"Yes, Grandpa Feng Ping used me for self-defense back then, but it hasn't come in handy for many years. I now guess that these two are one in themselves. Ming'er, you know that this armor is a bit damaged. Maybe this stone can be repaired. Let's take it back and look at it."

"Well, that's fine."

While Xue Ming and Qingping were communicating, the auction was also underway.

All kinds of treasures were taken out and then photographed away, and no such things appeared again that no one knew.

The auction was held for more than half, and the VIPs in the private room upstairs had not participated in the bidding, so there was no shocking offer. The price was much higher than before, but most of them were hovering around forty or fifty thousand taels of silver. This price had turned more than half of the people sitting in the hall into spectators.

But what everyone knows is that the real good show has not yet begun.
Chapter completed!
