46 New System (1/2)
”Lord Sherlock, it's time.”
”What? The surface adventurers are arriving? I haven't finished constructing my treasure vault…”
Sherlock's fingers clicked quickly, and the computer mouse was moved frantically.
”No, Lord Sherlock, I'm not referring to the game. It's time for the equipment auction.”
Sherlock was shocked.
”What? A day has passed?”
Sherlock looked at the time, and Cramer's loot had been exhibited for a day. It was almost twelve in the afternoon and time for the auction.
Sherlock didn't expect time to pass that fast.
The gamers gathered outside the Dungeon Core Main Hall to await the start of the auction.
The bid prices wouldn't be shouted by the gamers. Instead, Bru would become the bidding system and collect the gamers' bids. Within ten minutes, the six loot items would be auctioned simultaneously to the highest bidders. The gamers gathered outside the Main Hall to see who was going to win the bids.
The attributes of Cramer's loot were superior to the current Diamond Seam equipment, and the loot had legendary status and unique designs. It would be impressive to own the loot which could be Soulbound and insured!
The most important factor was that the loot was one of a kind, just like Cramer. There wouldn't be a second Cramer in the Underworld.
In this auction, the gamers would expend their month's earnings from doing missions and exchanging for materials. There would be a 30% tax, and the proceeds would be distributed according to individual contributions in defeating Cramer.
The contributions of the gamers were decided by Bru, and he would reward them accordingly. Hence Sherlock wouldn't be involved.
With that many chatting gamers gathered outside the Main Hall, it was like a noisy market.
Though Mufasa had been in the Dungeon for two days, he still wasn't used to the insane and incredible gamers.
”Cousin, why aren't they working? Why are they chatting outside the Main Hall? Isn't Lord Sherlock going to dismiss them?”
Mufasa held a soup ladle while Simba placed some clay in the soup pot. The food would be sold at a high price to the gamers after it was prepared.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click visiting.
”Lord Sherlock won't dismiss them. Chatting while gathering is one of their past times. Remember, no matter what the Goblins do, don't be surprised,” Blacksmith Simba said nonchalantly.
Mufasa needed more time to get used to Eternal Kingdom. Meanwhile, the auction had reached its climax.
There was only a minute left. The bids for the six items were about two hundred to four hundred bronze coins, and they came from some unknown gamers.
The gamers who wanted the items would only bid at the last moment.
When the countdown started, the bids of the six items jumped from hundreds to tens of thousands. Within thirty seconds, the bids of every item breached 20,000 bronze coins and continued to increase by the thousands.
In the last ten seconds, the bids of the items stabilized at around 30,000 bronze coins. In the last three seconds, the bids increased exponentially.
During the process, the gamers were shouting excitedly.
”Gosh! It's breaking records!”
”What's the deal? A piece of online game equipment is being sold for tens of thousands of Renminbi!”
”Did the rich gamers accumulate all the game coins?”
”If it's that expensive with only a hundred Beta Gamers, what's going to happen when it's in Open Beta?”
”It's a windfall. I'm going to set up a workplace to play the game and earn coins during the Open Beta. I'm not going to work anymore!”
