A Lan didn't care at all about Night Abyss's furious departure.

If you choose to give in on a matter of principle, Misty Abyss Clan will inevitably push further.

There is no moral restraint in this world, and people always speak with their fists.

In the eyes of foreigners, the essence of your concession is that you consider yourself the weaker party after weighing the pros and cons, and then you choose to compromise.

This behavior will not only make the foreigners restrain themselves, but will actually make them feel that they have an advantage.

Under the law of survival of the weak, the act of compromise is like the smell of blood from an open wound, which will only attract more greed.

Only by being positive and unyielding can we gain more space for cooperation.

The fearless performance is far more tangible than the previous verbal covenant.

As for Night Abyss's anger, A Lan doesn't think it would really be angry.

From the previous two contacts, he felt that Night Abyss was a very good leader, and all seemingly angry expressions were ultimately for profit. Including the previous extreme pressure behavior, even anger was a bargaining chip in his calculation of interests.

Even when he got up angrily and scanned the whole place just now, it was just a performance for profit.

How could this veteran who had experienced hundreds of battles and single-handedly turn Misty Abyss Clan, which should have withdrawn from the stage of history, come back against the odds, how could he be a reckless man who was easily affected by his emotions.

As for the invitation to generals in this auction, they did not clearly state in advance that there would be rule fragments.

It is also a layout to obtain more benefits from the Misty Abyss Clan.

Let me explain in advance that the general can indeed prepare resources in advance, and Gold Coin Merchant Association can make more profits in this auction.

But what he wants is for the Misty Abyss Clan to take the initiative to come to every auction in the future.

Also remember to store a lot of resources at the Gold Coin Merchant Association.

Not disclosing the items for each auction means that outsiders cannot know whether rule fragments will appear in the next round of auctions.

If you want to seize the opportunity in advance, you must prepare resources in advance and store them here at the Gold Coin Merchant Association.

This will allow the interests of all ethnic groups to be highly bound to the Gold Coin Merchant Association.

Secondly, resource storage requires a handling fee, which is also a continuous source of resource income.

After this experience, Night Abyss will definitely plan every bidding event in advance in the future, and every time an auction is held, members of the clan will be invited to participate. On the other side.

Night Abyss's figure is like a black lightning, speeding close to the sea.

His body passed over the surging waves, and wherever he passed, the seawater parted silently, and a mist evaporated.

Suddenly, its five fingers grasped forward, and the space was torn apart like fragile brocade, revealing twisted void cracks. The next second, it had passed through Spatial Rift and appeared above Mingwu Island.

Facing the sudden cross-space jump, the Misty Abyss Clan army below raised their heads one after another. When they discovered that the person coming was the general, their nervous expressions immediately dissipated. "Prepare three Heavenly Soul Stones, three thousand Blood Crystal Mines, and two hundred Ghost Grass for me.

Its voice was as cold as iron, causing the Misty Abyss Clan warriors below to kneel down one after another.

The three elders took off from the bottom of the island and hurried over. Before they could speak, they were stared at by Night Abyss Senhan's eyes in the air:

"I asked you to prepare resources, not for you to come over and ask me what happened."

After hearing this, the three elders decisively flew to the resource storage area and took the resources according to Night Abyss's ideas.

The auction of Dream Island gave Night Abyss a new understanding of the strength of the Gold Coin Merchant Association.

It found that it could not figure out the details of the Gold Coin Merchant Association.

It is certain that Gold Coin Merchant Association must have an investigation organization deployed in various areas of the sea, and they are like ghosts collecting information about various sea areas.

This is also the reason why Gold Coin Merchant Association's information is so detailed and even knows about Ming Wu's past.

Secondly, the fact that Gold Coin Merchant Association was able to produce treasures such as Rule Fragment proved that the power behind them did not care about the potential value of Rule Fragment. The power behind this might be far stronger than he had imagined before.

Even the act of starting trade with various ethnic groups is probably supported by the "logic of rules".

Otherwise, on the basis of having far greater strength than Misty Abyss Clan, the act of cooperation and mutual benefit is itself a stupid performance.

Even taking a weak tribe into a slave tribe is more in line with the survival laws of this world than mutually beneficial trade.

It didn't think about these problems in detail, it was more concerned about the piece of Rule Fragment now.

Even if it cannot be repaired, it can be made into Pseudo-Rule props, which can also bring strategic advantages to the Misty Abyss Clan.

This is a trump card on the Monster World gambling table that will definitely be effective in the future no matter how the times change.

Technology may be eliminated, but rules will always occupy the supreme position in the power system.

Ordinary resources can be obtained through a series of methods such as mining, breeding, and plundering.

But the rules are different. This is absolute authority over resources, and it is the supreme power that formulates war regulations.

Value cannot be measured by ordinary resources at all, and the two are not in the same dimension.

This is why it feels that Gold Coin Merchant Association's behavior of exchanging Rule Fragment for resources is very stupid.

It's like exchanging a sharp blade that can cut off fate for a few bundles of firewood. It's simply ridiculous.

At this moment, the departing elder returned and handed over a bracelet containing resources.

Night Abyss took the bracelet and turned around to tear apart the space.

After passing through the space tunnel, it appeared in the sky above Dream Island, and then flew directly to the dock of Dream Island.

Prepare to transfer resources to registration, and then obtain the common currency on Dream Island: gold coins.

During these few contacts, he learned that A Lan, the person in charge of the Gold Coin Merchant Association, had a remarkable characteristic.

For many issues, A Lan sees no room for negotiation and compromise.

For example, just now it made it clear that it could provide additional funds, but A Lan chose to refuse.

This may be related to the logical chain of the rules. Its behavior does not comply with the rules to produce benefits, so it chose to reject it.

There could also be other reasons.

In short, go directly to the dock to register, which can avoid a dispute with A Lan on this small issue and waste time.

The figure of Night Abyss cut through the sky of Dream Island like a black meteor, carrying the chaotic atmosphere remaining in Spatial Rift, and landed with a crash on the blue-gray stone slab of the dock.

The air waves lifted up the moored merchant ships, and the players who were loading and unloading cargo were staggered back by the sudden impact.

After landing, Night Abyss reached out and sucked a player in front of him.

Before the player could react, he looked into a pair of burning blue pupils Soul Fire.

"Register."

With that said, Night Abyss reached out and waved his hand to the ground, and suddenly there were ten metal boxes on the ground.

"No, buddy, it's no fun if you jump in line. Can you please be more civilized?" The player was also startled, and then said with an unhappy look, "I'll let you register."

Just when this player was about to turn on the scent-spitting mode.

The voice from the battle group's channel rang in his mind, and then he said helplessly:

"Okay, I'll register you now. Please be polite from now on. This is Dream Island, not your tribe. You can run wild as you like... Soul Fire in Night Abyss's head beat violently. He resisted the thought of slapping him to death and continued to listen to this player's babble while counting resources.

What makes it curious is the way players count their resources.

There is no need to take out the resource illustration for comparison. You only need to glance at it with your eyes, then touch it with your hands and enter the invisible space to know the properties and value of the material.

What's even weirder is that the weight doesn't even need to be measured.

For example, the pricing method for Spiritual Ore resources should be to first determine the category, then identify the quality, and finally weigh it.

The mining of Spiritual Ore is inherently full of variables.

The rough stones hewn from the veins vary in size and shape.

Even ores produced from the same vein may have varying quality due to different internal impurity distributions.

According to common sense, the identification process should be cumbersome.

At the very least, samples must be selected to check the quality, and then the weight can be converted based on energy content and other indicators, and finally the value of the entire batch of goods can be estimated. But in front of the member Gold Coin Merchant Association who is still chattering, all the goods can be known with a glance at the exact value, and then stored in the space. Night Abyss, who was curious, reached out and grabbed a piece of ore, and after repeated scanning, handed it to the player who was inspecting it.

After the player received the ore, he glanced at it and entered the space, and then entered a series of numbers on the statistician.

"How much is this Spiritual Ore worth?"

"39292 gold coins."

Night Abyss already knows the value of the gold coin and calculates it quickly.

The final number settled in its mind: 39292.

It is exactly the same as the value given by the Gold Coin Merchant Association member.

But compared to the Gold Coin Merchant Association, where members can get the price at a glance, its calculation speed is far inferior, and Gold Coin Merchant Association calculates in batches, not individual ores one by one.

Although it was curious about the reason, it did not ask.

Monster World has many races, and it is normal to see talents of all races.

However, what Night Abyss doesn't know is that this fast statistical pricing method was invented by A Lan: Quick Valuation Method.

The usage is actually very simple.

Naturally, it is impossible to calculate the specific value of this batch of resources just by analyzing and scanning them.

But players have a very accurate value measurer in their hands, which is "Sacrifice Di Zhao brother".

You only need to open the Sacrifice panel and throw it in, check the value of Sacrifice, and you can estimate the value of the entire batch of goods.

Take a blood crystal ore as an example.

Gold Coin Merchant Association only needs to calculate the market price of this Spiritual Ore in the trading market. Next, it only needs to pack the blood crystal ore into the space bag in batches, and then Sacrifice Di Zhao checks the price of Sacrifice to get the accurate price of the goods.

That is: actual transaction price in the external market = internal Sacrifice price × fixed coefficient.

There are three steps in total.

The first step is to throw the goods into the Sacrifice panel (Di Zhao brother automatically identifies the value based on quality and weight).

The second step is to record the Sacrifice quotation.

The third step is to multiply by the fixed coefficient (the ratio in the resource category table listed by the Gold Coin Merchant Association, each commodity has a different proportional value). The external price of blood crystal ore is 3.3 times that of brother Sacrifice Di Zhao. This is the fixed coefficient.

All resources can apply this formula to quickly get a clear price, and you can completely skip the complicated and tedious steps of quality identification, weight identification, etc. Di Zhao brother is the authority.

Although the Di Zhao brother received the goods with a knife on his ankle, and the Sacrifice price of some products can even be more than ten times different from the external price, the proportional price given is absolutely fair, and there is no possibility of missing the mark.

This makes "Sacrifice Di Zhao" the most standard value measure.

In the early days, Gold Coin Merchant Association also had a complicated statistical method, and the statistics of a batch of goods took a lot of time.

With the development of the Gold Coin Merchant Association, the early identification methods were too inefficient and could no longer keep up with the development of the Gold Coin Merchant Association.

In the end, A Lan found this shortcut for quick pricing after studying its own functional system.

Not long after, all resources were counted.

"Brother, come and take the payment."

Night Abyss raised the bidder in his hand with a cold face, and saw a golden light coming from the statistician in the player's hand, sweeping across the surface of the bidder with a "ding" sound. Suddenly, the gears in the bidder automatically rotated, and gold coins with equal resource value arrived in the account.

But the values in the bidder are essentially just value carriers.

The first-generation version of the bidding machine is too crude, and other races are fully capable of modifying the gold coin display value after careful study.

Therefore, A Lan uses the plug-in in the Gold Coin Merchant Association group chat for recording. Players who finish each statistics will record this resource in the plug-in. Even if the value of the external bidder is modified, it is useless. Every transaction must be completed by the player.

Other races may be able to tamper with the displayed value of the bidder, but they can never touch the data information in the Gold Coin Merchant Association chat group.

Night Abyss, who got the gold coin, didn't stop and took off into the air.

Not long after, he arrived in the sky above the auction, slowed down and landed on his original seat.

At this time, the bidding price of Rule Fragment has reached 48 million gold coins, and there are 8 minutes left before the end of the auction.

After discovering that Night Abyss has returned, A Lan knows that it is fully prepared to continue bidding.

As a demigod, it is no problem to physically travel across the void.

The distance between Mist Hidden Island and Dream Island seems long, but for the strong Demigod Realm, as long as they have a clear Spatial Coordinates, they can go back and forth in a short time. Night Abyss, who was seated, raised his head at this time and turned on the bidding device in his hand.

The bidder, which had been stuck and could not continue to rotate, started to rotate again after receiving new energy.

[No. 313, bid: 50 million gold coins.]

This quote has just been given, and a new quote pops up the next second.

[No. 89, bid: 52 million gold coins.]

This time Night Abyss didn't get angry or do anything extreme. He just turned on the bidding device again.

[No. 313, bid 55 million gold coins.]

At this time, the price had reached 5.5 million Sacrificial Power, and the players in the live broadcast room were dumbfounded.

The most painful thing is the last time 800,000 Sacrificial Power linked Rule Fragment to Trading House.

They now have a new understanding of the concept that knowledge is wealth.

While watching the live broadcast, their inner pain continued to increase as the price of rule fragments increased.

In fact, before consigning the rule fragments to Trading House, members of this team studied the value of the rule fragments in detail.

At that time, I felt that the price of 800,000 Sacrificial Power was a bit high, and I planned to lower the price little by little if it couldn't be sold. However, Trading House was sold out by other players as soon as I listed it.

At that time, they also thought that this player should be a member of Arms Dealer, pharmacist, and other research and development guilds.

I bought it for research, but in the end I will give Sacrifice to Di Zhao.

But I didn't expect that it could be sold at such a high price in the hands of the Gold Coin Merchant Association.

Completely opposite to the mood of the members of this team, the team that provided the rule fragments to the Gold Coin Merchant Association.

The entire battle group consists of 76 people.

In the process of brushing Adventurer Dungeon, I was very lucky to find the rule fragments. The first thing I did was to search the forum for relevant information, and then I found the post of A Lan asking for rule fragments at that time.

Originally, they planned to sell the rule fragments to the Gold Coin Merchant Association for 1 million Sacrificial Power.

But A Lan gave them two choices in the private chat.

First, Gold Coin Merchant Association spent 1.5 million to purchase rule fragments.

Second, Gold Coin Merchant Association is responsible for the sales, and only charges 10% of the handling fee.

A Lan clearly explained in the private chat that the price of the rule fragments is far more than 1.5 million Sacrificial Power, and it is up to them to decide how to choose. When normal players face the huge sum of 1.5 million Sacrificial Power, they will definitely choose Sacrificial Power without hesitation.

This price is no longer as simple as game currency.

In the real world, he also went to the Moon Eclipse Clan to extend his life and solve all the hidden dangers of diseases in his body.

But the leader of the war group has great trust in A Lan. He is also one of the beneficiaries of the Gold Coin Merchant Association's past welfare projects.

Therefore, after discussing with the guild members, the leader of the war group chose the second condition: the consignment model.

For more than half a month after that, Gold Coin Merchant Association never replied.

During this period, members of the war group also complained about why it has not been sold after so long. They might as well sell it for 1.5 million Sacrificial Power.

But the leader of the war group still chose to wait.

Now, the early waiting has turned into the ecstasy of this moment.

Every time the screen at the auction site jumped, all the members of the group who were resting in Adventurer Dungeon raised their hands and cheered, and every member's face was filled with smiles.

And the exciting finale bidding continues.

At this time, A Lan looked at the gold coin numbers that were still beating and seemed very calm.

In fact, the value of the rule fragments is far more than a few million Sacrificial Power.

The only thing that limits the value of Rule Fragment is the current scale of the Gold Coin Merchant Association.

If Ascension Clan, Shu Yan, Misty Abyss Clan, Tidal Rebellion Legion, Soul Return Clan, A Le, and even more wealthy forces can be summoned to Dream Island to participate in this auction, the price of rule fragments can continue to rise.

Unfortunately, Gold Coin Merchant Association is just a new platform after all, and there are still too few buyers that it can connect with.

The resource volume of the Misty Abyss Clan at the scene is completely dominant, and other races are no match at all.

In the end, the final auction of Rule Fragment was sold for 87 million, which is 8.7 million Sacrificial Power.

"General Night Abyss, congratulations." A Lan stood up at this time and congratulated with a smile.

"Rule Fragment give it to me directly, no delivery required." Night Abyss said in a deep voice at this time.

A Lan can completely understand this request.

The Night Abyss of the Demigod Realm can come and go freely in Azure Star Sea Area. No one can stop it. It can only rob other tribes. How dare the various tribes of Azure Star Sea Area take action against it? But A Lan did not agree directly, and had a new idea in mind:

"General Night Abyss, you have always been skeptical of our clan's abilities before. How about we play a game?"

"What game." Night Abyss turned around and looked directly at A Lan, the Soul Fire in his head was beating.

"The next Rule Fragment you get in the auction will be delivered free of charge by me, Gold Coin Merchant Association. You can use all the means of the Misty Abyss Clan, including ambushing, tracking, and even taking action yourself... if Gold Coin Merchant Association cannot send Rule Fragment to Mist Hidden Island within three days. I, Gold Coin Merchant Association, will fully refund all the resources you spent in this auction, and Rule Fragment will treat it as a free gift."

"You are very confident."

"Confidence is built on strength."

"Then give it a try." Night Abyss agreed simply, and then continued:

"I hope your Gold Coin Merchant Association's strength is worthy of this confidence."

After saying this, it turned around and turned into a black mist, flew over Dream Island, and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
