An elderly voice echoed through the auditorium.
All the lights went out and went to the center of the stage in front of everyone. An old man with white hair appeared on the stage.
His aura and casual clothes make him look like an ordinary old man.
"Ladies and gentlen, my na is Talbot, I will be the auctioneer for this auction. It is a pleasure to et you" The old man introduced himself.
Nobody knows the old man, so they imagine he is just so auctioneer hired by Marsh Group for the auction. But behind the casual look, the old man is soone very powerful.
Even if no one has the courage to confuse the auction, it does not an that they are encouraged to do so. If any item is very rare and valuable, anyone can go crazy.
Thus, the auction did not hold up and sent a powerful person to be the auctioneer, even if he looks like a normal person.
"As you all are looking forward to the start of the auction, this old man will not say many aningless things. But before we start, I'm going to talk about how the bids are going to be made. This ti, we will not have devices to bid, so you will have to say the amount you will want to offer. Without further ado, the auction will begin" The old man announced.
The lights quickly go off and on again.
Behind the old man, a row of beautiful young won dressed as maids appeared. The clothes they wore were uniforms of common maids, a long dress that goes down to their heels. The outfit was beautiful and enhances the beauty of won.
The beautiful young won hold a silver tray with a large golden cloth covering it. The item being auctioned was covered by the cloth. But so of them were in front of a large rectangle covered by a large cloth.
The rectangle looks like a box or cage, but it was not possible to see because of the golden cloth.
"Ladies and gentlen, the first item to be auctioned is a weapon forged from the materials found inside the mine." Talbot waved his hand and the first girl walked over to him.
The cloth was removed and a sword made entirely of crystal appeared, from the blade to the hilt of the sword. The sword was about two ters long and thirty centiters wide.
Looking more closely, one can see that the crystal sword has several letters carved into the crystal. From ti to ti it is possible to see a slightly dark blue glow shining in these letters.
A strong light blue glow can be seen being emanated when the light is reflected on the sword. The sparkles give the sword great beauty.
"Ladies and gentlen, this is a heavy sword. According to our tests. These are the possible attributes and effects that the sword has"
The system did not show the equipnt information, people can only know about the power and effects of the equipnt when they equip the items. So, to find out what effects the equipnt has, a person needs to test.
Talbot waved his hand and a screen projected in front of everyone.
The screen was showing the na of the sword and its possible attributes and effects.
Crystalline Sword
20 Strength attribute points
5 Vitality attribute points
Effect
Increases attack power when attacking crystal creatures by about 30% - 40%
Requirent: Level 150, 90 points on strength attributes.
The first item was quite decent for those who want to fight and train inside the mine. The thirty or forty percent increase in attack power on crystal creatures is a lot.
The percentage of the effect is not a very accurate value because each of the people who tested it had a different increase in damage. Thus, this is the estimated value between the users.
"Ladies and gentlen, as everyone can see, this sword is very good for those who have a desire to train inside the mine. The thirty or forty percent increase in damage is quite high" Talbot spoke to the audience.
"The initial value of this sword is eight hundred crystals from the creatures or thirty-five crystals from the mine. With each bid, the increase is a hundred creature crystals or a crystal from the mine must be added" He continued.
As stores and nobles prefer mine crystals, they sell things cheaper if the buyer pays using the mine crystals.
This is to increase the buyer's chances of paying using the mine crystals. All stores do the sa kind of thing.
"Eight hundred creature crystals? Thirty-five crystals from the mine? This value is a bit fair by the sword, but the requirents are a little difficult to et. Only people who fight with heavy weapons and have many points in the strength attribute can have the chance to use this crystal sword" Soone in the audience comnted. He thought about the pros and cons of the sword before comnting.
"The price is reasonable, but I cannot buy sothing that I cannot use. I'll pass" Another comnted.
"Is the auction doing this again? Sell cheaper items if paid for with crystals from the mine. It looks like they're looking to make a lot of money this ti"
Many different comnts echo through the auditorium when Talbot talked about the bids, but it is very normal for this type of thing to happen.
Custors were thinking about the pros and cons of buying the sword, as not all of them can use the sword.
Only those who have enough attributes to use or faithful subordinates will buy the sword. Otherwise, the sword will be just a decoration and without any use.
Talbot did not interrupt the conversations, he patiently waited for the custors to talk before bidding.
In one of the rows, we can see three people, a man, and two won. The man was sitting in the middle of the two won with his arms around their waist.
The trio was Liu Yang, Aruna, and Maev. The three chose a location with few people around so as not to have to hear screams and conversations from others.
"Garett, are you going to buy that sword? It is very good for you to use inside the mine," Marv comnted. She had already seen the pictures of the items in the flyer, but not the information.
The flyer only had images of the items auctioned, to see the information of the items, the person needed to go to the auction.
"This sword is interesting. I can use it without any problem, but the problem is the sword's durability. If the durability is really bad, this is very useless to . I will continue to fight inside the mine for almost another year. If the sword doesn't hold up and breaks, it will be very bad for " Liu Yang answered the question.
Before attempting to bid, Liu Yang needs to know about the sword's durability to continued use for a long ti can break the sword.
"Garett, what do you think about asking that to the auctioneer? He must know about this information" Aruna comnted.
It was not unusual for the auctioneer to know all kinds of information about the item being sold. If he doesn't know, when soone asks so kind of question about the item, it would be very embarrassing.
