Chapter 192: Auction
Moreover, because of her talent, "Gem King," Lin Su's development speed in sub-professions would only accelerate. As long as she didn't die, her future prospects were excellent.
But "as long as she didn't die" was the biggest problem. Lin Su wasn't confident she could survive every derived world.
At the same time, the lights in the venue suddenly extinguished, signaling the official start of the auction.
Without any opening remarks, the first item was brought out from backstage by an Staff Member dressed in revealing clothing. It was an ordinary-looking scroll.
"A skill scroll to start? It seems this item isn't simple."
"Big Brother is right."
Generally, to warm up the crowd, the first item auctioned by the organizer would be among the top few items in terms of value; it wouldn't be ordinary.
"The first item—Spear Mastery! Suitable for melee Contractor to learn. Starting bid: 100,000 paradise coins."
The first item was the Spear Mastery that Mu Yang had provided a few days ago.
Although this was a passive skill and wouldn't conflict with blood sunor Fiery Sun, he definitely wouldn't learn it. Otherwise, he would become the second generation of that poor, ruthless guy.
He only needed to roughly learn the usage techniques of other weapons through the Sun God Glyph's "All Weapons." Swordplay + fire elemental abilities were enough for a long time.
However, while it was useless to Mu Yang, that didn't mean Spear Mastery was cheap.
Although it was very expensive to produce, that didn't stop it from being popular. A max-level mastery technique was enough to sweep most Arena contestants, so one could imagine how powerful a specialization, which was one level higher than mastery, truly was.
Therefore, many melee experts dreamed of having a specialization-level technique ability of their own.
"I bid 120,000 paradise coins!"
A loud shout came from the back. Although one could input the price with a bidding plate, it lacked the imposing presence of shouting it out.
However, the price was still far from the final transaction price.
Even if everyone agreed in advance to let someone bid for an item at a low price and others wouldn't compete, how could the organizer not have considered this problem?
At least ten people in the audience were personnel planted by the Wings of the Azure Sky and the Divine Emperor Adventurer Group. If the bidding price fell below the estimated value, they would step in to raise the price.
Even if it ultimately received no bids and was withdrawn, it was better than being gamed by others.
"How can you be so shameless with only 140,000? I bid 200,000!"
"150,000 + 2 soul crystals (small)!"
"I..."
After a round of bidding, Spear Mastery was acquired by a medium-sized adventure Troupe for 200,000 paradise coins + 4 soul crystals (small).
This price was indeed not low, even a bit higher than the market's estimated price.
However, specialization-level technique scrolls were priceless in the trading market, just like soul crystals, with extremely low output. You couldn't necessarily buy one even if you wanted to, and even if one appeared, it might not be the type the Contractor desired.
And the auction was famous for the rarity of its items in the outside world.
You could buy very rare items here, and naturally, the price would be higher.
The second item was an item consigned by another Contractor, of dark purple quality, suitable for mages, immediately igniting the entire venue.
Mu Yang glanced at it. Its effects weren't suitable for him, so he gave up on the idea of bidding.
The price of the third item dropped sharply, with a quality of only blue · rare. This was prepared for the Contractor in the back rows—
"There aren't many good things."
Mu Yang sighed. Although these were good, none seemed suitable for him.
Hearing this, Lin Su glanced at him, took out a golden and black interwoven gem from her storage space, and dangled it in front of Mu Yang.

"You can even craft purple quality gems now?"
Mu Yang asked, extremely surprised.
"I crafted it using fragments of a divine artifact from the Douluo World. Using ordinary materials has too high a failure rate."
Lin Su pondered carefully for a moment before organizing her words.
"Do you want it?"
"Yes, how many paradise coins?"
Mu Yang nodded. How could he not want such a good item?
Paying was a given. He and Lin Su were friends, but even close siblings settle accounts clearly, let alone friends?
"Without the resources from the Douluo World, I wouldn't be able to create the [Mirror of Reflection]. Talking about money would hurt our friendship too much. This first gem, I'll give it to you for free."
"Alright, let me know if you need anything."
Without refusing, Mu Yang took the [Mirror of Reflection] and placed it in his storage space.
Inlaying gems required opening slots, but now was clearly not the time to do such a thing. It wouldn't be too late to do it after the auction ended.
While the two were talking, Ruo Li bid on a permanent buff item that regulated the body and resisted toxins, clearly prepared for Little Fairy Doctor.
As items were brought out one after another by several Staff Members, the atmosphere in the venue had reached its peak.
"Everyone, next up is the main event!"
The auctioneer on stage spoke a few more words than usual, and then an Staff Member walked out from behind him, carrying a tray.
On the tray were two large pistols, one black and one white, giving most people present a familiar feeling, as if they had seen them somewhere before.
"Wait, aren't these Dante's Ebony and Ivory? But how could they appear in Reincarnation Paradise?!"
"Why worry about that? Just bid for them. These are the weapons I dreamed of as a child."
The Contractor below were eager to try, and Revolver of the Troupealso showed interested eyes, but unfortunately, he didn't bring much money on this trip, so he couldn't bid for these two weapons.
But it didn't matter. He could directly target the Contractor who bid for these two guns, and then kill them and steal the treasures in the derived world.
For such highly iconic items, the probability of them dropping from a Scarlet Card was still very high.
Revolver was clearly not the only Contractor with such thoughts, but this was beyond the purview of the Wings of the Azure Sky and the Divine Emperor Adventurer Group.
An innocent man is guilty only for the treasure he possesses.
Even normal people understood this saying, let alone Contractor.
Su Xiao was also very interested in Ebony and Ivory. He did have a pistol called [Broken Sprite], but it was of green quality and could no longer keep up with his strength.
Although [Spider Queen] was a purple quality firearm, it was a sniper rifle, more suitable for long-range use.
Undoubtedly, Su Xiao was tempted.
But when the attributes of Ebony and Ivory were displayed, his heart immediately sank by half.
