Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
A level 60 orange costume selling at 8000. You could almost say that she was stealing.
But Liu Yan needed it urgently. She wanted to give it to Xiao Jinghan.
[Private chat] Yan Ru Meng: Lan Zhi, don’t be too greedy!
[Private chat] Snacks Are Justice: If an evil merchant is not greedy, he will not be called an evil merchant. How about this?
Liu Yan looked at her “how about this” and had a bad feeling about it.
As expected, one minute later, the system gave an announcement.
[System Announcement] Player [Snacks Are Justice] called for an auction. Timing is at 8:00. See you there.
There was an auction house in the game. Normal auctions would not have a system announcement but once the price of the items exceeded 10000, there would be an announcement.
The auction price need not be only one item. It could be a few items adding up to 10000.
Now, the players that were talking about the underground palace stopped their discussion and checked the auction house.
The item that was pushed to the top was Ming Shu’s item.
There were a God of Wind costume, a set of light moon shallow clouds, and some medicine and rare stones. Whatever it was, it looked very generous.
[World] Snacks Are Justice: Don’t miss the chance. This is a rare opportunity for discounted items! If you miss this chance, you will have to wait for your next life.
[World] One more time: Big brother are you high? This is the God of Wind costume! No one else has it, right?
[World] I Am Not Eating Sugar Today: Wealthy father, what are you doing?
[World] Downloading you: Omg, you are putting in a lot this time. I actually saw a level five gemstone.
[World] Rubbish rubbish: Big brother Lan Zhi, what happened? So many items. Are you planning to empty your storage?
[World] Ke La Ma Yi: Maybe your wealthy father doesn’t want to be the wealthiest person anymore.
[World] Skull: You people wear your brains on your hair. Now that the underground palace is unlocked, there is a need for top-level items. The God of Wind costume is the best item now. There will be a lot of people vying for it. Do you really think that it is a clearance sale? This is a real evil merchant!
[World] Snacks Are Justice: Don’t you know the principle of not revealing what you know? Now that you said it, how do you expect me to act now? If I am chased by people again, I will be on television. It is not good to stop other people from being on television.
[World] …
We didn’t see any signs of you feeling that this was a bad thing. You actually seemed excited to try it out. Why is that so?
[World] Snacks Are Justice: You have to thank Yan Ru Meng from the Chang’an Alliance. This auction happened because of her. Please go and prepare your money everyone. After all, some stuff will never come back once you miss it.
Yan Ru Meng?
No one knew what happened, but that didn’t stop them from asking on the world chat what the Chang’an Alliance did.
Liu Yan was so angry she almost vomited blood. What did she do? She just asked to buy some items from her and it became like that. Who knew what this crazy person was thinking.
[Team] Chasing the wind for a thousand miles: We will not be able to make it ourselves in time and there is probably no other way to pass the underground palace if we don’t have the orange costume. Other teams will snatch it too.
[Team] Three inch sword: Ru Meng, Lan Zhi said that the auction happened because of you. What is that about?
[Team] Yan Ru Meng: I am not sure either. I just asked to buy the God of Wind costume from her and she suddenly did this. I didn’t provoke her. The last time it was also like that. She just targets me without any reason…
Liu Yan felt wronged. She was afraid that Xiao Jinghan would think that it was because of her and went to private message him after explaining in the team chat.
Xiao Jinghan had no reaction. She didn’t know what he was thinking.
[Team] God of nine suns rises: There is something wrong with that ugly hunk. The last time I went to buy stuff, she also gave me a high price. I think that she is targeting the people from Chang’an Alliance on purpose. Isn’t she very close to the First Level? Maybe she joined them?
[Team] Three inch sword: Nope, she doesn’t have a team yet.
[Team] Chasing the wind for a thousand miles: The God of wind costume is on auction. As long as we have the money, we can get it.
[Team] Three inch sword: If we spend too much money on the God of Wind costume, it would be a waste.
The entire team went silent. After a few minutes, Xiao Jinghan asked everyone to gather.
…
8 PM that night…
The auction officially started. Ming Shu could decide which item to sell first so she started with the least expensive one. Someone bidded for it and the price came much faster as compared to when she looked for buyers herself.
In the game, the auction house was a platform to trade created by the official site. Hence, the official site would get a cut too. This meant that the higher the price, the more the official site would earn.
She auctioned the items one by one.
When it was time for the light moon shallow clouds and God of Wind costume, the number of people in the auction house broke the record.
[World] Snacks Are Justice: Now, it’s time for the light moon shallow clouds costume. If you don’t have a partner yet, why not buy one set back to please your goddess? If you have a partner, are you not going to buy one to please her? The effects of the light moon shallow clouds costume are really pretty!!
[World] Chuan Bei: Why do I find something wrong with this speech?
[World] Ran Ran: Because there is something wrong. Big brother wants to break some couples up hahaha.
[World] Liu Su Ru Hua: Are you crazy, Lan Zhi?
[World] You Lan: Yeah. Since you are selling stuff, just sell things, why are you saying all this? Even if you don’t have a partner, you do not need to break other people up!
[World]: Woman, if a light moon shallow clouds costume can break a couple up, do you think that this is true love? If you have a partner like this, break up with him or her soon. The gaming world is so huge, maybe the next tree will flourish better?
[World] Liu Su Ru Hua: …
[World] Skull: This is not the bus that is going to kindergarten. Put me down!
[World] Li Ge: Give up. The door is already blocked.
[World] Chuan Bei: Get him, don’t let him run away!
A group of actors suddenly appeared in the world chat. However, the First Level’s players were always being extra so besides feeling speechless, there was nothing they could do.
[World] One more time: Big brother, can you start soon?
[World] Snacks Are Justice: You are not buying. What are you anxious about?
[World] Clown: Hahahaha. Big brother really nails it.
[World] Your green hat looks good: You are being looked down on by big brother. Hahahaha.
[World] One more time: Although I am not buying, I want to watch!
[World] Snacks Are Justice: If you are not buying, better not to watch. If not, you will be unable to eat and sleep properly and then go on the path of no return. Young man, don’t do it.
[Team] One more time: …
[World] I Am Not Eating Sugar Today: …
[World] The west mountain: …
After the conversations on the world chat, Ming Shu started her auction of the light moon shallow clouds.
The starting price was 3000. However, it soon rose to the price that Ming Shu gave God of nine suns rises, 5000. After that, it started to slow down.
After all, 5000 was already very expensive for a costume.
In the end, the final bid was around 6000 and the player that won was a leader of a guild. He might have bought it to please his wife.
[World] Snacks Are Justice: Reality proves that this costume is very worthy.
[World] Xiang Si Nian Hua: The light moon shallow clouds costume has quite a few good properties. 6000 is still within the range of some rich people.
[World] One more time: A poor guy will just watch silently.
These people didn’t realize it, but God of nine suns rises from Chang’an Alliance knew that this sentence was directed at him.
