Chapter 159: Chapter 159: The Auction

‘Ten times the range…’

The first thing that came to Ling Yi’s mind was his [Starfall].

If he added this Skill to it, the power would not change, but the range of destruction would be further expanded.

However, it was already very outrageous. If it were to expand further, it would reach 400,000 meters. If it really appeared, the whole world would be shocked.

The second would be items like the Bell of Truth.

‘Overall, it’s still okay…’

He couldn’t think of any more scenarios to use it in such a short time.

After Ling Yi and Yunji finished eating, they each drank a bottle of herbal tea while waiting for the auction to start.

At this time, a few young and handsome men also walked into the tent to rest. The black-haired man in the front saw Yunji and immediately came over with bright eyes.

“Sister Yun? You’re here too?”

The black-haired man was called Chen Zhi. He pulled out a chair and sat in front of them. When he sat down, he noticed that Yunji seemed to be with the man beside her.

“You two are…?” Chen Zhi looked at the two of them in surprise and suspicion, his brows tightly furrowed.

Beside her, Ling Yi turned his head and asked, “You know him?”

“Mm… He’s a cousin of a classmate, Chen Zhi.”

“Oh.”

Ling Yi thought that the two of them would have a conversation. He didn’t expect Chen Zhi to snort coldly and walk away.

The two of them didn’t mind and continued to drink the herbal tea in front of them.

“Why did you buy me such a big cup? I can’t finish it.” Ling Yi touched his stomach. He was already very full.

Seeing him frown, Yunji smiled sweetly, reached out to take the herbal tea in front of him, and said with a smile, “If you can’t finish it, leave it to me.”

As he spoke, he placed the straw that Ling Yi had sucked into her mouth and sucked hard.

Gulu, Gulu, Gulu ~

She swallowed mouthfuls of tea, and the movement of her snow-white neck could be clearly seen— He could see the clear skin of her neck.

After she finished Ling Yi’s Cup, she pursed her red lips and pushed her cup to Ling Yi. “It’ll only be fair if you drink all of mine.”

“Sure. You bought a smaller one, so I could finish it.”

Ling Yi also drank the tea in a few gulps and immediately savored the aftertaste. “The taste is a little different. It’s a little sweeter.” He commented.

Hearing this, Yunji lowered her head slightly, and a layer of blush crept up her pink and tender face.

She quietly turned her head to look at the man beside her, her eyes rippling with bright spring water.

“I won’t be able to bear it when I get back.” She said in a high-pitched voice.

“Huh?” Ling Yi didn’t know what she was talking about.

Before he could think further, the clanging of gongs and drums suddenly came from the distance. Immediately after, someone used a prop to amplify the sound and said from a distance, “The auction is about to begin! The auction…”

…

Usually, it would take players two to three hours to explore a big great dungeon, and they would spend the remaining few hours exploring and idling about.

Over time, players gradually planned their own activities to do, including setting up stalls and auctions in the great dungeon.

Not only could they help others to get the items that were useful to them, it also adds some entertainment to kill time.

At this moment,

In this large square of more than 300,000 square meters, tens of thousands of people sat below and looked up at the temporary auction stage. All of them were whispering to each other about the possible auction items, and the entire scene was very lively.

“I wonder what will be up for auction this time?”

“Don’t worry. This is an auction organized by the Emperor Star Financial Group. They’ve carefully selected every item for the auction.”

“Of course, it has to be attractive enough for people to bid. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be embarrassing if no one wants to buy any?”

“How many gold coins have you prepared?”

“…”

Ling Yi and Yunji sat at the front of the table.

The former was currently fondling his chin in deep thought, while the latter was twirling her hair with her slender fingers, her eyes lost in thought.

“That’s right!” Yunji suddenly thought of something, and her beautiful eyes lit up.

She looked at Ling Yi beside her and leaned over with a smirk on her face. She whispered in his ear, “Why don’t you activate the Bell of Truth? It’s going to be interesting to open it here.”

“Ah, that…” Ling Yi didn’t think it was necessary.

However, just as he was about to reject her, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the distress points notification at the side.

[You have absorbed 67 points of excitement from Wang Yuan.]

“Mm… Alright then.”

Distress points were like money. If one could earn more, one would definitely do so. No one would ever complain about having more.

But since he was going to open it, he had to make it bigger. He decided to use the [Regional Flag] to increase the range of influence of the Bell of Truth.

While he was operating, the auction had officially begun!

Under everyone’s gaze, a robust and energetic middle-aged man walked out from behind the curtain with a smile and began to make a simple opening speech. “Hello everyone, I’m Li Yun, the person in charge of this auction. We’ve prepared a total of 50 items for this auction, and it’ll probably take an hour and a half…”

While Li Yun was speaking on the stage, the two empty seats beside Ling Yi were occupied by people.

He turned and saw Yun Zixiao and Yun He.

“Haha, Brother Ling Yi, we meet again.” Yun He said with a familiar smile.

Ling Yi didn’t know why the older man called him that, but he didn’t care.

He only smiled and nodded at him.

Yun Zixiao, who was dressed in a red dress, sat on his right. The moment she sat down, her gaze swept past Ling Yi and landed on Yunji, who was on his other side.

Her brown eyes were filled with surprise.

When Ling Yi looked over, she immediately shifted her gaze to the man in front of her. Looking at his face, she couldn’t help but smile. “You have to level up quickly. I’m already 40.”

“Mm, don’t worry.” Ling Yi didn’t reveal the fact that he was already level 49.

Now that he had revealed his true face, it was better to keep a low profile.

And right after he finished speaking, Li Yun began to push out the first item.

It was also at this moment that Ling Yi finally pressed the bead on the Bell of Truth and switched its mode.

He was very curious about how it would be effective in front of tens of thousands of people.

“Our first item is a B-grade item, the Flowing Spirit Illusionary Cloud Comb.”

“When a woman used this item, it would improve the quality of their hair. Not only that, as long as the hair is combed for a long enough time, the player can also control their hair, change the hair color at will, and greatly increase the toughness of the hair. It can even be used as a weapon to attack the enemy behind.” Li Yun explained its effect to everyone

“The starting price is 10,000 gold coins, and each increment must not be less than 100 gold coins. The bidding starts now!”

Bang! Bang!

As the hammer fell, the interested players began to bid— Those who wanted to participate in the auction just had to go and get a bidding board. When it was time to bid, they could just write their price on the board, so there was no need to shout.

The price that the players wrote on the bidding board would be displayed on the big screen on the auction stage in real-time, and each line was recorded clearly.

However, even so, many players still liked to entrust people around them to shout out their bidding price in a high-profile manner.

“Twenty thousand!”

“A hundred thousand!”

“One-fifty thousand!”

After only three people had bid, the price had already soared to 150,000 Gold coins.

Everyone turned their heads and looked at the man who called out the last bid.
