Chapter 1696 Sold at 10 Billion!
“Here is the last item up for auction.”
The voice of the Eighth Guardian rang out in the auction venue.
Everyone’s eyes were instantly focused on the auction stage, waiting for the last auction item to appear.
“The speed-up technique!”
Seeing that everyone was looking forward to it so eagerly, the Eighth Guardian smiled and said, “Before we offer the auction item, I must tell all the countries and forces present that our Nirvana Organization is presenting this technique to express our goodwill to the whole world with great love. I hope you can get my painstaking efforts.”
All the people present couldn’t bother with what he was talking about. They were all looking forward to the speed-up technique.
Therefore, as soon as the Eighth Guardian finished speaking, everyone nodded and urged him to hurry up to the last auction item.
“Okay.”
The Eighth Guardian chuckled and said, “The last auction item!”
Right after that, a man in black walked out from backstage with a tray in his hand.
In the wooden tray in his hand was a scroll as thick as an arm.
The cover of the scroll was black, and the words could be vaguely seen.
“This is the speed-up technique!”
The Eighth Guardian placed the speed-up technique on the auction stage and introduced, “Don’t worry, everyone. The mbers of Nirvana co from various countries, which is enough to prove that this speed-up technique is suitable for everyone in the world.”
When everyone heard that, their eyes instantly lit up.
Under the attraction of the speed-up technique, no one paid attention to what the Eighth Guardian said.
On the auction stage, the Eighth Guardian directly reached out his hand, picked up the speed-up technique, and then opened it in front of everyone. All the people present could see that the scroll did contain the contents of the technique.
“I believe everyone can see that this speed-up technique is the original. We aren’t auctioning a copy. We’re doing this to show everyone the sincerity of Nirvana.”
At this point, the Eighth Guardian smiled, closed the speed-up technique, and put it back on the auction stage.
“Get it started.”
“Say no more. Let’s get started.”
“Announce the reserve price first.”
Everyone spoke up fervently.
At this mont, those dium-sized forces no longer hesitated. So of them were so excited that they even stood up, ready to fight against those big and powerful forces to the end.
No one was afraid of offending a powerful force.
What everyone was thinking about now was how to get the speed-up technique. They were thinking about whether they had enough money.
In the middle of the first row, Fang Qiu turned his head and glanced around. Seeing the desire on everyone’s faces and the madness in their eyes, he couldn’t help shaking his head secretly.
For people from all over the world, the speed-up technique was indeed too tempting.
Which country or force in the world didn’t want to be the strongest?
There was no doubt that the speed-up technique could help them achieve that.
The power of the five major countries and the top forces would an nothing when one had the speed-up technique.
Any country or force with that technique could beco the top one in the world.
On the auction stage.
“Okay.”
Seeing everyone’s crazy look, the Eighth Guardian said with a smile, “There is no reserve price for the speed-up technique!”
As soon as he said that, everyone couldn’t help being stunned.
“No reserve price?”
“How are we going to bid?”
“Are we going to bid as we wish?”
For a ti, the faces of the people from the major forces from all over the world darkened.
However, the Eighth Guardian suddenly shouted just then.
“The bidding begins!”
“One million!”
An extrely excited voice ca from the corner.
Everyone turned to look and found that the voice ca from a mber of a small force.
Poof!
Soone couldn’t help laughing, and then everyone present burst into laughter. The person who was laughed at was very embarrassed.
“Fifty million dollars!”
In the loud laughter, the leader of the small force stood up and bid again.
“Fifty million to get the speed-up technique?”
Next to him, the leader of another small force sneered disdainfully. He stood up, stretched out a finger, and said, “One hundred million dollars!”
“One hundred and fifty million.”
“One hundred and seventy million!”
For a mont, the small forces sitting in the last row began to bid fiercely. As soon as one of them finished shouting, the other imdiately offered a higher price.
The dium-sized forces sitting in the middle of the auction venue were still waiting quietly for the mont to take action.
“Three hundred and fifty million.”
“Three hundred and ninety million.”
“Four hundred million!”
Before long, in the midst of the continuous bidding, soone made a bid of 400 million dollars for the speed-up technique.
Such a terrifying number put many small forces in a dilemma.
Although they were not short of money, they did not have much wealth. Although the strength of each small force was not bad, they usually lost interest in money after getting enough. They did not expect that they would need to spend money on sothing that expensive one day, so they did not keep much. Hundreds of millions of dollars were their limit.
As the bidding of these small forces gradually decreased, everyone’s eyes were cast on those dium-sized forces and large forces.
“One billion!”
At this ti, a man from a dium-sized force stood up and said, “If soone makes a bid at a higher price, we’ll drop out.”
Just as he finished speaking-
“One and a half billion!”
Another dium-sized force directly made a bid of 1.5 billion.
“Two billion. Can anyone offer more?”
Another dium-sized force called out a bid.
When those small forces, which had been fighting fiercely before, heard this bid, their faces all changed. They couldn’t offer two billion no matter what.
Although they had already thought that with their little money, it was impossible for them to get the speed-up technique, at least they had to take a shot. Besides, they had a backup plan.
“I think it’s better not to waste ti.”
Just as the dium-sized forces were bidding against each other, the leader of Murica suddenly stood up and said, “5 billion!”
As soon as he said that, all the people present were shocked.
“Five billion dollars?
“That’s unbelievable!”
Many people were shocked.
The montum of those dium-sized forces that were competing with each other suddenly weakened.
“It’s your turn.”
The man from Murica looked at the representatives of Soviett, Anglan, and L’hexagone, as well as Fang Qiu, with a trace of disdain on his face. He didn’t take the other four major countries seriously at all, as if he would definitely get the speed-up technique in the end.
Just then-
“5.1 billion!”
A voice was heard.
It wasn’t from any mber of the four great countries.
Everyone turned around in confusion. It turned out to be the young man from one of the small forces who bid one million.
“Do you have that much money?”
The man from Murica laughed.
“I don’t.”
The young man said timidly, “But we have it all together.”
“Hmm?”
The man from Murica raised his eyebrows.
It seed that in order to get the technique, these small countries and forces decided to join hands.
“5.5 billion!”
The man from Murica smiled faintly and bid again.
“5.6 billion.”
That young man from a small force bid in so embarrassnt.
“We bid 6 billion!”
Before the man from Murica could make another bid, the people of dium-sized forces who had just been suppressed bid again.
Apparently, they had also joined forces.
As soon as that bid was made, those people from small forces couldn’t help shaking their heads and smiling wryly.
Even if they joined forces, they still couldn’t defeat the dium-size forces.
“6.5 billion.”
The man from Murica bid again.
“Seven billion.”
When those dium-sized forces called out this bid, their faces beca quite darkened.
This number was close to their limit.
“7.5 billion.”
The man from Murica continued to bid.
Those dium-sized forces shook their heads and gave up bidding.
“Cut the crap. Just na your greatest number.”
The leader of Soviett seed to think that it was a waste of ti to bid in this way. He glanced at the people of the other major four countries and said, “We can bid 8.2 billion dollars at most. What about you?”
The representative of Anglan said with a smile, “A little more than you. 8.5 billion!”
“It seems that our bid is the greatest.”
The leader of L’hexagone said, “9 billion!”
At this very mont, the people of dium-sized countries and forces couldn’t help shaking their heads with wry smiles.
They had no way to compete with the five major countries, who could bid billions of dollars easily.
How were they ever going to get that much money?
It should be noticed that even a country could not embezzle the national treasury on this matter. Once it was embezzled, the economy would collapse.
“9.1 billion dollars.”
The man from Murica bid again.
It seed that those major countries had about the sa amount of money they could use.
“9.2 billion.”
The leader from Anglan narrowed his eyes and imdiately frowned. Almost as soon as the man from Murica bid, he would imdiately make another bid. It was as if he was afraid that soone would beat him to it.
“It seems that you’re finished.”
The people from L’hexagone looked at the Anglanish crowd with a smile, shook their heads, and said, “9.4 billion!”
“It seems that everyone has held back a trick or two.”
The man from Murica sneered.
“9.5 billion!”
The people from Soviett also made their last bid.
As soon as that bid was made, the people from L’hexagonegone and Anglan looked terrible and sat down directly. They obviously didn’t have the extra money to keep bidding.
“What about you?”
The man from Murica stared at John Doe and said, “You didn’t participate. You’ve been waiting for this mont, haven’t you?”
“This thing is useless. We don’t want it.”
Fang Qiu sneered disdainfully.
All the people present were shocked upon hearing what he said.
However, the people from Murica burst into laughter.
“Since so-”
Staring at the speed-up technique on the auction stage, the man from Murica shouted, “Ten billion dollars!”
The entire scene was deathly silent.
“He actually made a bid of 10 billion?
“Although the speed-up technique is definitely worthy of this price, that is still too high.”
After nearly a minute of silence-
“Ten billion. Deal!”
The voice of the Eighth Guardian was heard.
Under everyone’s gaze, the man from Murica walked up to the auction stage for the transaction.
At this ti, the atmosphere in the auction venue was very strange.
