Chapter 208 - First Move! (1/2)
”51,000!”
The Fire Beacon Guild was still unwilling to give up and continued bidding.
To them, although the military was powerful, they had to compete. Otherwise, it was not their style to give it up so easily.
”52,000 gold coins!”
In the last row, someone announced their first bid.
”The Deputy Guild Leader of the Bloody Mercenaries, Steel Eagle, can't hold it in anymore.”
”They specialize in games, so it's normal for them to fight for fame.”
Some players whispered.
”55,000!”
Another unknown player spoke.
Everyone looked but they had no impression of the person. The player did not show himself and hid in the corner after bidding.
He was the lackey of the Dark Guild in Iron Skull City. Because they did not want to miss anything, he was arranged to develop his faction in Iron Skull City. This time, he came because he wanted to bring back the Guild Establishment Token for the Netherworld Guild.
The current price had already reached 55,000 gold coins, far exceeding most people's expectations.
The competition was not over.
The reputation of this ”number one guild” was extraordinary to these large guilds. Its value in reputation far exceeded the value of the Guild Establishment Token itself.
Therefore, someone quickly continued bidding.
”56,000 gold coins!”
”56,500 gold coins!”
”57,000 gold coins!”
”57,500 gold coins!”
The offers came one after another, but the price did not increase much.
The current price was close to 200 million alliance dollars. Even if these guilds had the support of a large financial group, it was difficult to directly buy an item for a few hundred million dollars. After all, creating a guild only raised one's reputation and did not directly bring benefits.
Therefore, the bidding had entered a stalemate.
Sitting in the stall, Lorne was overjoyed. No matter where the final price fell, it was twice the expected price.
Moreover, this also gave him high hopes for the subsequent Guild Establishment Tokens.
As long as he could exchange for the most Guild Establishment Tokens in the shortest time, he believed that those large guilds that wanted to catch up to other opponents would definitely buy the Guild Establishment Tokens at a high price.
At that time, the net profit that Lorne would obtain might exceed a billion!
…
”58,000 gold coins!”
”58,300 gold coins!”
”58,500 gold coins!”
The price was still rising, but at this time, the price increase was only two to three hundred gold coins.
At this rate, the final price might stop at 60,000 gold coins.
Just as Lorne thought this, the player hiding in the corner suddenly shouted a shocking price.
”70,000 gold coins!”
As soon as this price was out, the entire scene was silent.
The price that was originally barely close to 60,000 was suddenly pushed to 70,000. Immediately, no one dared to speak.
10,000 gold coins was equivalent to 30 million alliance dollars. Even the representatives of large guilds could not help but shiver. After all, the price had already reached 70,000 gold coins. This was a little too terrifying.
Hearing this price, the Domination Guild player hesitated.
It was not because they could not afford to pay more than 200 million dollars. To the corporation behind them, 200 million dollars was nothing.
