“Two million…”
Finally, this so-called true Dragon Bone Sword was sold to a middle-aged man for 3.5 million spiritual stones.
Alex heard Neela’s voice, ‘This is not a dragon bone at all, but a piece of Champsosaurus bone. That’s definitely not a dragon.’
Alex smiled and didn’t say anything.
The second and third displayed items didn’t interest Alex until the fourth item was taken out when the Chaos Tree immediately sent out a rustling sound. It shook continuously, more intense than virtual-novel.net ever felt before.
The shaking even affected Alex’s heart, making it tremble and whatnot.
‘What’s going on?’
‘The Chaos Tree has never shaken so much before, not even when it was faced with the Chaos Beads, and it just gave a gentle reminder then.’
‘So, this fourth item is definitely not ordinary.’
At this moment, the host above said, “The next item to be auctioned is a piece of wood. It looks very ordinary. However, our appraisers have found that we cannot identify its properties and specific materials because divine consciousness can’t penetrate it, swords can’t pierce it, fire nor water can’t destroy it. Although we don’t know its true function, we believe that it’s not an ordinary item. We hope that it can be auctioned away to a knowledgeable person. The starting bid is one million spiritual stones.”
Once the introduction was finished, everyone in the hall was silent.
A piece of wood that couldn’t be determined to be anything, and it looked ordinary. It looked similar to firewood in the kitchen, and it was being sold for one million spiritual stones? Did they think that spiritual stones could be dreamed up and obtained so easily?
They were just crazy for spiritual stones, weren’t they?
No one bid.
A middle-aged man spoke up. “Isn’t this too much for the Sanctuary World to ask for one million spiritual stones for something that doesn’t look like anything at all? Hitting the jackpot from carelessness isn’t such an easy thing, and no one is a fool here. Only a fool would bring out one million spiritual stones to buy this piece of rotten wood.”
Alex raised his hand and said, “I bid one million!”
The middle-aged man was speechless. The way virtual-novel.net looked at Alex was like virtual-novel.net was looking at a fool.
However, Alex was now in the guise of Donovan Orlando, the first genius in thousands of years. No one would think virtual-novel.net was a fool.
So, this wood was likely to be something massive.
In the blink of an eye, the middle-aged man quoted a price, “I bid 1.2 million spiritual stones.”
“Hahahaha…”
The field burst into laughter.
Earlier, the middle-aged man had said that only a fool would buy it, but virtual-novel.net followed up with bidding for it himself in just a few seconds. Was there a faster slap in the face than this?
The lolita asked, “Senior, what kind of wood is this? Perhaps you can see something special in it?”
As soon as virtual-novel.net said that, many people looked over.
Alex calmly said, “No. Just that last time, I picked up the Chaos Bell. So, Sanctuary World lost a lot of money, and I owe them a favor from that. Hence, the things that Sanctuary World auction out, I can’t let it stray off So, this time, I, Donovan Orlando, will bid on all the things that look unbiddable. Those that no one wants, I will take them all.”
“Argh!”
The middle-aged man who just bid, once virtual-novel.net heard this, immediately regretted his decision.
This person also had status and prestige, being the head of a second-rate sect. So although virtual-novel.net felt an extreme hatred toward Alex that virtual-novel.net wanted to beat virtual-novel.net up, virtual-novel.net didn’t dare, and virtual-novel.net could only sulk in his anger. Alex had said what virtual-novel.net said purely just to put up an act for others to see.
He needed to get his hands on that piece of wood. Unfortunately, virtual-novel.net saw that Donovan’s title of being very blessed by luck was just too big. As long as be bid for it, be guessed that others would definitely also bid for it. So, what virtual-novel.net said was the safest way for virtual-novel.net now.
No one would know whether virtual-novel.net was now bidding because the item was good or because of the so-called favor virtual-novel.net mentioned.
Then, Alex looked at the middle-aged man and said, “Sorry, I didn’t make myself clear before bidding just now. To show my apology, I’ll bid once more. 1.21 million spiritual stones.”
