Chapter 619 - Auction Event (2)

"Oh~ So, according to legend, there is still violet at the very top? We have a nine color scheme to represent a person"s strength based on aura. This is the same for spirit stones. I understand, thanks for telling me." Elysia nodded in understanding.

"But that"s only a legend. The strongest rank in recorded history is Demi G.o.d, and the spirit stone with the highest grade is indigo." Eun-Hee emphasized the conclusion from her explanation just now.

"Mm." Elysia nodded once again and spoke with Sylvia again.

The emcee returned to the stage a few moments later, and the program continued until the peak session arrived.

"Ely, we really didn"t buy anything in the third session, hmm. The holy grail looks interesting. It"s an ancient artifact here, right? I can see there"s an evil spirit sealed in there." Sylvia rubbed her hands together. She was really curious about what the three items in this peak session were like.

"That holy grail is really risky and actually of no use to us at all. What the emcee said is really trapping. According to Miss Eun-Hee"s explanation and my understanding. It would not grant the owner"s request at the price of blood. Despite its charming form, it calls for a blood sacrifice for temporary power boost." Elysia shook her head.

"Mm, all right. If nothing catches your eye, then those items are just trash and useless things. Oh, hey, look, that"s a little lump of indigo spirit stone like the one we have. Ely, Ely, ask our translator to translate what that person said. You can"t miss this session." Sylvia patted Elysia"s arm enthusiastically.

"Uuh, okay, I know..." Elysia then asked Eun-Hee to translate what the emcee explained to the audience.

"This is a very rare and high quality spirit stone. This fifty gram top-tier medium quality spirit stone is the first item that will open this peak event session. The initial price is twenty-four million won in multiples of one million. Feel free to place your bids now." The emcee pointed his palms at the indigo spirit stone on the tray with a big smile.

The bidders immediately place their bids, and the list keeps changing so fast. The first three names kept changing without anyone wanting to budge.

When the name"s changes slowed down a bit, the emcee voiced the higher bid enthusiastically. "So Jung-Hee, two hundred million!"

"Yong-Sook, two hundred and five million!"

"Seul-Ki, two hundred two hundred and twelve million!"

Seeing that figure, Elysia felt a little hesitant to spend such a large amount of money on such a small spirit stone. However, her magic energy recovery needed the most excellent quality resources.

After all, she needed a lot of magic energy to use high-level techniques and a few other complicated magic. And the highest quality ones were sorely needed.

"Ely, are we bidding or not? I"m ready to put our name on the auction list. What name do you want to enter, and what is the amount. I"ll win this for you!" Sylvia picked up the tablet on the table and slightly stretched her fingers. She was ready to partic.i.p.ate in the bidding war.

"Mm, press the green b.u.t.ton, input Ely, then type three hundred million. Three by eight zeros." Elysia made up her mind and gave her instructions.

"All right, here we go. Three by eight zeros!" Sylvia licked her lips as she smiled with excitement.

"Hm, Lily, three hundred million! A new name has finally emerged to win this top-tier medium quality spirit stone!" The emcee announced the name at the top of the list.

"Sylvi, why did our bid name become Lily? It should be Ely, right?" Elysia blinked her eyes in surprise. Of all the bids, only theirs used the alphabet, and it was so clearly displayed on the giant screen on stage.

"Eh-ah, I"m sorry, Ely. Even though I"ve memorized all the letters and numbers of this world... Why did it become Lily?" Sylvia also became surprised herself. She looked at the screen closely and realized her mistake.

"Nevermind, that"s not a problem. Keep up with the bid war. We"re only going to follow this to six hundred million. If it"s more than that, we"ll back off." Elysia raised her palm with a rea.s.suring smile.

"Un, leave it to me!" Sylvia puffed out her chest and helped change the numbers on the bidding list.

Whenever someone put a higher number than her, she would always put a million more than the previous one. It was like flaunting or mocking the compet.i.tor to bid higher, but it was done on purpose.

"Hmm, who the heck is Lily? This is a new name and this guy dares to challenge me? That guy really doesn"t give me any face." The black-robed young master in one of the VIP rooms grumbled in annoyance. He now had only one compet.i.tor, namely Lily.

All bidders relented when his name was added to the bidding list, but not for this one.

"Haha, you really are brazen to a.s.sume your compet.i.tor"s gender, Ju-Won. That Lily could be a beautiful fairy from the other country. She definitely won"t give you a face no matter that." The yellow-robed young master couldn"t help but laugh at his friend"s antics.

"Shut up Se-Yeon. I have to get that indigo spirit stone at all costs. It will be an amazing gift for my grandfather"s birthday tomorrow." Ju-Won clicked his tongue and placed a much higher bid. This time, he put it straight at nine hundred and ninety million.

"Well, that indigo spirit stone is of great value because there are so few of them. Even if we have money, it"s just the item that isn"t on the market. Go, go, my friend, you can get it." Se-Yeon waved his hand in front of her face and let her friend continue the bidding war.

Meanwhile, a certain white-haired girl could only sigh in the VIP room next door. The number was getting out of hand.

Elysia stopped Sylvia from placing another bid because they obviously wouldn"t win the item. "That"s fine, Sylvi. We can look for such an item in our next treasure hunt. Let that person get that indigo spirit stone."

"But, Ely, we need the best quality spirit stones for your master as well, right? We only have four hundred grams of indigo spirit stone, and only about three thousand five hundred grams of miscellaneous resources. We need a lot more for our world"s G.o.ddesses so they can use their divine magic without disrupting this world." Sylvia pumped her hands. She was annoyed with her last compet.i.tor.

"It"s okay." Elysia responded with a rea.s.suring smile.

"Uhm, Miss Elysia. I don"t think you should try to offend that bidder." Eun-Hee tugged at the hem of Elysia"s sleeve.

"Huh, why?" Elysia asked in surprise.

"He is Hong Ju-Won, the most talented young master of the younger generation. He comes from a well-known clan and is notorious for being vengeful and short-tempered. He will obviously look for Lily if he fails to get what he wants just to teach you a lesson." Eun-Hee scratched her head with an awkward smile.

"Oh, so he is a silver pants spoiled young master." Elysia didn"t take it seriously.

She turned towards the stage as the second item had just been displayed for everyone to see.

"Hmm?" Elysia used her sacred eyes for a quick glance to see something odd about the white bracelet artifact.

It had a beautiful and charming shape with leaf-like decorations and feathered wings. The artifact had a rather strange aura, and something resided within it.

"Master Elysia, can you see it? That white bracelet has a spirit in it. Somewhat similar to the golden grail case, but this one is much stronger." Rhea reported her observations.

"An ancient spirit, perhaps? Can we use that spirit to extort information about the secrets of the world? Ely, take a closer look. What color is the spirit aura in there? Blue or indigo?" Elena felt attracted by that white bracelet. They should get it.

"Uhm, it"s indigo, but quite a bit blue. So, newly ascended Demi-G.o.d spirit? Oh dear me... This world is becoming more and more complicated and complex the more we dig deeper. Don"t those people realize that the bracelet has a powerful spirit in it?" Elysia could see that artifact was high in demand. The bidding list was constantly changing rapidly because many people wanted it.

"Hmm-mm~ Isn"t that white bracelet spirit"s situation somewhat similar to yours, Rhea? Hmm, that"s really sad. That spirit might just be sleeping, hibernating, cultivating, or the like in its own sanctuary... But someone happened to find it and sell it to the auction house. When the spirit wakes up, it"s obviously going to be furious, hehe... Shall we put our bid for that white bracelet?" Elena chuckled to tease Rhea.

"Un, I agree on that. Master Elysia, if you wish, please win that white bracelet even though our money will run out in the process. It"s a stroke of luck, but I"m sure that the ancient spirit will bring enormous benefits to us if we use the right method." Rhea made a suggestion, but she really wanted to make it happen.

"OK. Let"s win it at all cost." Elysia didn"t question anything anymore. Elena and Rhea had already said a yes, so she would just do that with confidence.

After asking Eun-Hee a few things about the white bracelet artifact, Elysia immediately put her bid recklessly.

"..." Eun-Hee"s mouth was left wide open when Elysia joined the bidding war.. This girl really didn"t care about money.
