Reborn as a Transcendent

Chapter 570: Buying Technique, Stage Three!

"Lowly slave, listen to me!" Kastina exclaimed the moment Yaeger entered.

"Did something good happen?" Yaeger asked, sitting down and pouring herself a cup of tea.

"Those outsiders are practically golden pigs. I love them so much!"

"Sure. As long as you like it." Yaeger replied, taking a sip of black tea.

"They are really generous. No, they are insane! While you weren't around, an outsider spent ten million on a quality weapon. It's just awesome!" Kastina said excitedly.

Hearing that, Yaeger spat out her tea before she could swallow it. "Ten million?" She knew that the so-called quality weapon was the Rare sword, [Starmist]. "Is this for real?"

"Of course it's real," Kastina replied with a serious expression.

Yaeger finally believed it.

She sighed in realization. "I still underestimated the players' collective wealth. They actually spent such an exorbitant amount on a Rare weapon. They really don't care about money at all."

"Was it purchased by an outsider in the VIP area?"

In the Linhnan server, the only wealthy people Yaeger knew were guild masters of powerful guilds, including Taurus.

Kastina shook her head. "No. I recorded it. You'll know when you see it." She took out a marble-sized recording crystal and injected some energy into it.

A flash of white light appeared, and the footage was projected into the air. It was a recording of the recent auction.

"Old Man Tian!" Yaeger exclaimed as she watched the auctioning of [Starmist]. "This old man really spared no expense!"

Although she knew the Tian Family was wealthy, it was beyond her expectation that they could casually spend ten million on a weapon worth only hundreds of thousands at most.

"Do you know that person?" Kastina asked curiously.

‘The person was clearly a young man, but why did she call him an old man? How strange,’ she thought.

"I suppose we're acquainted," Yaeger said calmly, settling down. She found it quite pleasurable to have taken slight revenge by scamming Old Man Tian.

"Don't think I'll forget that punch you gave me." Of course, the ten million he spent was only considered interest for that punch.

Below them, the auction had reached its peak. All the materials, equipment, and tools were gradually claimed by the powerful guilds. Taurus was unquestionably the biggest winner, having claimed over 60% of the items by himself.

"Next, we will auction a Masterwork weapon."

The final item of the auction, eagerly anticipated by everyone, was finally revealed. All the players on the scene waited with bated breath

In real life, players watching the broadcast also paid close attention, staring at their screens. They couldn't afford to miss witnessing the first-ever Epic Equipment up for auction.

In contrast, the natives on the scene were confused.

Logically, the Black Magic Crystals should have been the final item, as they were more valuable than the Masterwork weapon. Why would the Imperial Auction House place the Masterwork weapon at the end? Perhaps there was a special reason?

They simply had no idea that, compared to the Black Magic Crystals, which had no clear function, the players naturally desired equipment that could increase their strength.

There was an informational gap between the two groups. Even if the players knew that Black Magic Crystals were exceedingly rare and valuable, they would still choose the equipment without a second thought.

In this world where the rule of the jungle prevailed, individual strength was what they valued most.

On the auction stage, the staff carefully displayed the Masterwork weapon to everyone.

It was a sword. An Epic sword exclusive to Warriors, [Windslash].

If Zamas were present and saw his beloved weapon being auctioned, he would definitely cry in the washroom. Though he knew the Black-hearted Princess would never return his sword, he still clung to a faint hope. What if she actually returned it?

Unfortunately, such scenarios didn't exist in this world.

Through the Light Magician's spell, everyone could clearly see the sword's appearance. It was a two-handed sword, four feet long. It had a simple shape but a complex design. The wide blade exuded wind energy that could seemingly cut through everything around it.

Unlike the natives, the players could directly read the weapon's description.

"Hiss!" One player exhaled deeply upon reading it. Soon, deep exhales could be heard all around.

Many players watching in real life were equally shocked, their eyes nearly popping out. There was a single reason for this:The description of the sword was too good.

It was at least half as good as the Black-hearted Princess' [Sunscorch]. Everyone knew her Epic sword was ranked number one in the world. Since this one was half as good, it was already considerably powerful.

Someone carefully compared it against the Equipment Ranking Chart and discovered it was even better than Rakshasa's Epic sword. It belonged at the pinnacle of all weapons in the Linhnan server!

In real life, Mira's expression remained calm. This sword definitely had great attributes, but it was still lacking compared to hers.

In the Okinawa Server, Honda, with a grim expression and wearing black-colored equipment, was watching the auction broadcast from another server.

"Sister isn't here. So boring." It turned out she wasn't watching the auction, but was looking for Yaeger. "It's been two days since I last saw my dear sister. I miss her… Ah, I really want to see her soon. I want to hug her tight and become one with her~"

In the Linhnan server, in the VVIP guest room of the Imperial Auction House, Yaeger suddenly felt chills down her spine. ‘Why do I suddenly feel chilly?’ she wondered. She looked around but didn't notice anything unusual. ‘Is it just my imagination?’ she thought.

"Masterwork weapon [Windslash], starting bid is fifty million." At that moment, the auctioneer on stage struck the hammer in her hand and spoke joyously.

‘The previous quality weapon sold for ten million. In that case, this masterwork weapon should reach one hundred million, right?’ Thinking about the bonus she was about to earn put her in a joyous mood.

"One hundred million!" Yet, it turned out her mood would improve even more.

Everyone looked at the person who said it—Taurus. They knew he was incredibly wealthy, but they never expected him to be so bold and double the price right off the bat.

After all, he wasn't doubling a bid of 10,000 gold but 50 million. This was terrifying, incredibly so! Was this the purchasing power of the rich?

‘Buying Technique, Stage Three!’ S.K.Y. mocked internally. Then, he felt a wave of envy, as if he had swallowed several lemons at once.

At that moment, players in real life were also filled with envy and jealousy. Although they were playing the same game, the rich and the poor had completely different experiences.

In an instant, Taurus became the prime subject of discussion. However, it didn't last long.

"One hundred and thirty million." A jarring voice echoed through the venue. Everyone was shocked upon hearing that.

They thought Taurus was already bold and rich enough, but someone else had actually stepped up. How incredibly surprising!
