Chapter 2458 Second Half of the Auction: Conspiracies

The seventh item of the evening attracted no attention from Minos' group, as he and his staff simply waited for the next item to be auctioned.

After 11 minutes between the presentation of the item and the bidding, the seventh item was sold for 15.2 million Qilnats, a sum that only mid- and high-level Sovereigns could normally afford.

For weaker people at the 11th stage, this was a staggering amount that would take several centuries to accumulate!

Some of them had been living on the island for decades, while others came from powerful worlds where they had already made their fortunes.

Just as Minos had his story, others of these aliens had their successes as well.

Soon, the eighth item of the evening would be auctioned off, and Minos set it aside until the ninth item appeared in the darkness on the platform in front of the attendees.

A crystal object, approximately 15 centimeters in diameter, glowing with a dark blue light and surrounded by constantly moving runes, appeared inside a glass jar.

Looking at the metal connectors on the crystal, the level 107 robot said to Minos. "Your Majesty, I am compatible with this particular core. I feel that if I absorb it, I will increase my power, increase my energy, create force fields and more powerful magical weapons."

As Minos listened to his robot's explanation, the auctioneer said. "This is Titan's Arcane Core, an artifact designed to be integrated into mechanical and robotic systems, imbuing them with colossal magical power. It has been known to transform ordinary robots into unbeatable warriors with extraordinary abilities."

Several groups began talking about the item, with robotic individuals like Minos's robot discussing its value among themselves.

"This could be the most valuable item of the night for artificial beings like us!"

"With something like this, we can easily cultivate to the 12th stage and greatly increase our strength."

"Too bad. The price will be stratospheric. I can't imagine this item selling for less than 30 million Qilnats."

There were several robots nearby, so this core attracted a lot of attention.

Worlds like The Adamant Land, where intelligent civilizations like the one behind this world or The Blossom World existed all over the universe.

Just to give you an idea of how common robotic beings were in the universe, about 30% of the aliens that arrived in Zocarro each year were artificial creatures!

Although there was a lot of competition for the item in this auction, Minos joined in and bid 14 million Qilnats when the bids opened.

As soon as Minos showed he was interested in taking the item, the groups in the VIP lounges started talking about him again.

"This guy found some kind of treasure. How many Qilnats is he carrying?" A level 107 man asked, looking at Minos, an alien who had already spent over 20 million Qilnats and intended to spend more in this current dispute.

"Not only does this man seem to have a lot of resources, but he may have over 3 high value items by the end of today's event." One of the strongest participants in the entire auction, a cultivator at level 108, said to his group with an interested look on his alien face.

"Is the senior going to move against him at the end of the auction?"

"If he's buying that much, he s a fool, or he has the strength to put himself in that situation. Let's monitor him. Someone will surely attack him, so we'll see what he's capable of later." Said this mid-level Sovereign.

One of the few locals at the auction looked at Minos with interest and ordered one of his men. "Investigate this person and his group. Find out where they come from and what they're capable of."

"Yes, master."

Meanwhile, the bidding had reached 25 million Qilnats, a figure much higher than the final value of the item auctioned in the last round.

"31 million!" Minos raised his last bid while the auctioneer looked at him with a satisfied look in his eyes.

Because of Minos, the auction was much more interesting and profitable for this auction house!

"Can anyone outbid the gentleman in room 112?" He counted to three as he looked at the crowd present, but no one else would bid more for the Titan's Arcane Core.

Even though there were several artificial beings present, most of them weren't as wealthy as Minos!

"What a show-off bastard!" The individual with a horse's body and black flames on his body muttered as he glared angrily at Minos' group.

"We will join the pursuit of his group later. Maybe we'll have a chance to humiliate them in the future!" said one of the alien's men.

"Idiot! Are you thinking of trouble? Didn't you feel that bastard's aura earlier?" The level 106 being asked.

"But boss..."

"We'll just watch. People who are bigger than us will surely hunt down this group. There's no way we can deal with all the competitors interested in their many items." The horse was rational.

If it had only been Lily's technique that Minos had bought, the situation would have been different. But with several valuable items in his team, Minos would probably attract more groups, and stronger groups than that horse's!

As he received the item from his robot, Minos looked around, aware this was going to be a night of battle for him.

'We'll see what my actual power is later.' He thought to himself, feeling that the battles he had fought in the galaxy of The Enchanted Realm were not good parameters for him to know his strength.

Only by fighting on this island could he get an actual idea of his power for the upcoming journey to Oqia and the Armhands' headquarters!

While he was thinking about this, the auctioneer would soon present the tenth item of today's auction, the last one that the people around didn't know what it was before today's event began.

The remaining items to be auctioned were all known, as they were the main reason most of the cultivators present today had come to the event!

When the tenth item was sold for 35 million Qilnats, the first absorbable weapon of the evening would be presented to the public by the auctioneer!
