Chapter 111 - Auction (2)

The auction house seating was decided on how much money you walked into the auction with . The minimum requirement to take part in todays auction was 10,000 gold , with anyone having over 1 million gold being given the VIP rooms.

In every VIP room , a total of seven people could be invited to take a seat. Naturally in Hazelgroove kingdom there were only 2 VIP rooms occupied , one by the alliance and the other by the Elites.

As Green signs lit up above the rooms VIP1 And VIP2 , everyone in attendance understood that the big players had arrived.

Rudra had decided to bring Fatty Kalash and Karna along for the auction this time.

Although Rudra remembered majority of the items that are to show up in today's auction due to past life memories, he still paid attention to the list of items being announced for auction today.

The auction had two divisions this time around , with 40 common items and 10 super items to bring a total of 50 items to bid for.

The list of common items to bid for was as follows.

Weapons ( 10 items ) grade (rare to dark gold )

Rare ingredients ( 10 items ) grade ( rare to dark gold)

Potion Recipes ( 3 items ) grade ( gold )

Forging designs ( 3 items) grade ( gold )

Incomplete designs ( 4 items ) grade (??)

Skill books ( 10 items) grade ( rare to dark gold)

For a total of 40 items. For a detailed list one needed to tap on any of the options to look at the indepth items coming up for bidding.

Rudra was honestly intrested in a few items like the skill books and the rare ingredients.

For the weapons , his guild had plenty good ones , he would only buy if it was cheap. For other stuff like design manuals he would only bid at the incomplete one's . As the incomplete designs are usually part of a complete design that is epic grade minimum.

He decided to keep a budget of 3 million gold for this segment.

However the highlight of the auction was the last ten items.

The list was as follows:-

[ Electric Net ] ( Dark gold) :- a net used to capture mounts in the wild for the very first time.

Immobilizes the target , making them less likely to submit and thwarts escape attempts.

[ Hephaestus's Mallet ] ( dark gold ) ( upgradable ) : a must have for blacksmiths , the mallet was designed keeping the forging god as an idol , increases crafting efficiency by 25% .

[ A page from Demon's Diary ] : ????

[ Spell book ] [ Endless devastation ] : turns the ground into a barren wasteland , debuffs everyone exept the caster of the spell , in a 200 meter radius.

Effect 1 : -5% AGI.

Effect 2 : -5 % PHY.

[ Spell book ] [ Stormbringer ] : Zaps the enemy with a huge bolt of lightning , sure to trigger lightning damage.

+200% lightning damage.

50% chance to stun the target .

+5% chance to trigger critical damage.

[ Potion recipe ] ( Intermediate mana potion ) : A recipe to create a potion that refill lost mana quickly .

[ Blueprint ] ( Reinforced brick ) : A blueprint for Reinforced concrete bricks , makes a structure extremely strong.

[ Blueprint ] ( fishing rod ) : A blueprint to create a device that catch fishes and other ocean mounts.

Hazelgroove special items :-

[ Red jewel ] ( quest item ) :- an item wanted by crown prince Aman .

Chances of rewards upon delivering.

[ Gold chalice ] : being sought after by a mysterious faction.

-------------------

These were the ten items out for auction today , the first 48 items were the same for all kingdoms across all continents. The last 2 items were special to Hazelgroove kingdom and were linked with main story plot lines. .

Uptill now in the game , quests and the main plot story played a very minimal role , as the players strength was not sufficient to make an impact on the plot lines as a whole , as the tier0 players were not even ants infront of those pulling the strings.

But slowly as players started growing stronger , and progressing tiers , they would be engrossed in more and more quests and the game plot.

The two items here the first red jewel entangled one with the royal faction of Hazelgroove , when the secret about the crown prince being practising necromancy became known , there was immense retaliation from the masses , and the royal faction had to supress the riots using force.

It ended in a bloodbath .

Should the one who delivers the red jewel to the crown prince choose his side in the war , they would suffer backlash from common npc's and protestors.

Should they oppose the royal faction , they would eventually be suppressed by the army.

All in all it was a bad questline to get involved in , hence Rudra wanted nothing to do with it.

However the second item had his intrest, the chalice was wanted by the faction behind the blood merchant , the main storyline of the game.

Wether or not he had anything in the auction , he absolutely wanted the last item at all costs!

Rudra geared himself up after confirming the identity of all items to be the same as his past life. He was glad that his knowledge and actions had not changed the current world too much as of now .

He had more than enough funds prepared for the auction , hence was confident at bidding for various important items.

However the same couldnt be said for the alliance , completely feeling lost at what to buy , as sufficient information was not provided for any items , they felt they were at a big loss.

7 guildmasters kept arguing over what to bid and who should be the main voice of the bidding game today , as they just could not reach a consensus.

The majority voting kept rejecting items after items that should be bid on , even after that the budget kept becoming an issue . Finally not even 3 items gained majority consensus.

The situation was not in favour of the guild , as PinkLotus felt frustrated in the room.
