The Auction Ends
The Phantom Dance Dress was worn by Yue Bingyan on a character model, and the beauty of the dress was fully displayed.
The dazzling special effects and the star-like skirt almost blinded them!
So beautiful!
Not only female players, but male players were also amazed.
It's a pity it's a women's outfit.
Many male gamers sighed.
Strength is temporary, but being handsome lasts a lifetime.
Please remove your men's clothing next time.
Even if you can't beat others, being more handsome will do.
In the end, this outfit was sold to Yun Zhongyao for 60 million Core Power.
After all, it's the first and only outfit in <Cloud Sea>, and wearing it is a symbol of status.
Xiao Fan was also very satisfied.
Auction to a close, the final, most coveted item was brought to the auction stage.
It was a token the size of a palm.
"Level 3 Base Building Token. Using this order will create a Tier 3 Security Base. Security Bases can be upgraded to cities and can be further developed into cities."
After Yue Bingyan finished speaking, Shen Long, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them for the first time.
His calm, expressionless eyes were fixed on the token on the stage, a glint of determination flashing within them.
Zhou He involuntarily sat up a little straighter; it was his turn next.
He had already sent the City Building Token back to the Shenzhou Settlement; it would be used immediately after the auction ended.
Xiao Fan had previously guessed that building the city would require completing tasks and collecting materials.
They'd better prepare in advance.
Zhou He has also sent people to scan all the low-priced materials in the Trading House.
We're just waiting for this part to finish.
"Starting bid: 100 million Core Power! Each bid must be at least 10 million." Yue Bingyan announced.
The players on the first floor knew this wasn't their turn, and no one bid to warm up the game.
Next comes the battle for supremacy among the elite.
Zhou He was waiting for Shen Long to make the first offer.
Seeing that Zhou He didn't speak, Shen Long didn't speak first either.
"Nobody wants it? Then I'll offer 120 million." A player on the second floor spoke up first.
Who wouldn't want to be the City Lord?
"Two hundred million." The Yu Family Head raised the price directly.
The atmosphere at the Auction became tense from the moment the bidding began.
Soon, the price of the token climbed to 400 million.
There is still room for this price to rise.
After all, the two big shots haven't even made their bids yet.
When the price of the token reached 600 million, Shen Long finally couldn't hold back any longer.
"700 million."
He immediately added 100 million.
Seven hundred million! That's a really high price.
In the later stages of the game, Core Power is not difficult to earn, but it is also consumed very quickly.
Upgrading, equipping gear, and developing skills all require a large amount of Core Power.
Seven hundred million—only a powerful organization like the Shen Sect could easily come up with that amount.
However, buying a building order is definitely not a bad deal.
Managing settlements can earn you a lot of Core Power, not to mention secure bases, you'll definitely make it back.
"Seven hundred and ten million," Zhou He also began to bid.
This price is very much in line with his style.
I'll compete with you, but I won't spend much more money.
"Seven hundred and fifty million!"
When the price of the token reached 900 million, only Zhou He and Shen Long remained, still bidding.
This is a clash between two of the game's top factions.
Shen Long knew that he would have to spend a lot of money at this auction.
Zhou He and the Military he represents are unlikely to easily relinquish this token.
When the price reached 1 billion, Shen Long's expression turned very unpleasant.
When the figure reached 1.1 billion, Shen Long gritted his teeth in anger.
When the amount reached 1.2 billion, Shen Long looked like a vengeful ghost.
When the amount reached 1.4 billion, Shen Long looked at Zhou He with murderous intent.
Zhou He knew that adding one more time was about the limit; any further and the other party might not be able to produce it.
1.41 billion.
"1.51 billion."
Xiao Fan's smile widened.
This price exceeded his expectations, after all, the City Building Token was only worth 1 billion. Of course, Brother Zhou also gave him some Evolution Fragment as a bonus.
"It seems I underestimated the Shen Family."
To be able to unleash so much Core Power at once, that's incredibly impressive!
Zhou He's expression was one of restraint, helplessness, and pain. Finally, he closed his eyes, sighed, and sent a message to the settlement to use the City Building Token.
Xiao Fan: It's obvious he genuinely wanted to make Shen Long happy.
Seeing that Zhou He did not make any further bids, Yue Bingyan's eyes flashed with surprise.
"Is Your Excellency Zhou He out of Core Power? Should I donate some?"
Despite her thoughts, Yue Bingyan still dutifully spoke up.
"Anyone else bidding? 1.51 billion, first bid."
Seeing the countdown begin, Zhou He didn't place a bid, and the other players below became anxious.
"Why isn't Zhou He fighting anymore? If we don't have Core Power, we can all crowdfund them."
"It's over, it's too late now."
"I'm still waiting for the country to establish a security base so I can join."
"1.51 billion, third time, sold!"
"This Auction now officially over. Please feel free to make yourselves at home."
Seeing Shen Long let out a long sigh of relief, Xiao Fan also breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately afterwards, Shen Long got up and went to the back of the Auction, presumably to retrieve the token himself.
Next, Xiao Fan only needs to wait for Shen Long to build a safe base.
Zhou He also sent a message saying that building the city does indeed require all the necessary tasks and materials, and they are currently working hard to complete it, and can arrive before Shen Long.
The Auction at noon.
Players generally don't choose this time to travel back to their settlement; most will wait until the morning to set off.
Xiao Fan returned to his residence.
The tokens, worth 1.51 billion, plus the 60 million from the auction of the Phantom Dance Dress, brought the total proceeds to 1.57 billion.
Yue Bingyan didn't charge any fees; she gave it all to Xiao Fan.
He plans to split this money with the nine members of the Zhanfeng Squad, meaning each person will receive 157 million!
To get so much Core Power from just one dungeon run, that's really making a fortune!
Xiao Fan quickly transferred his Core Power to Zhanfeng.
Zhanfeng was shocked; this was the first time he had ever seen so much Core Power in a game at once.
This dungeon run was totally worth it!
Unfortunately, since Xiao Fan left, no other team has been able to clear the "Dance Instead" dungeon, even with guides.
It's too difficult and requires both good equipment and good teamwork; you can't play it without a commander.
Xiao Fan said a few words casually, then closed the chat window, saying he had something to do.
He's creating new skills again!
"All attributes increased by 20 points, and Intelligence and Spirit increased by 30 points. That should be enough, right?"
With such a high stat distribution, he really has no other choice but to fail again.
Xiao Fan opened the Creation skill.
Please create skills for your character.
"Skill creation complete. Upon inspection, this skill has not appeared in the game before and requires system review. There is a chance of failure. Do you wish to continue?"
Xiao Fan said, "Please don't fail!"
"Continue."
The system is reviewing your request, please wait.
Xiao Fan was extremely nervous.
Come forth, my God Rank Thunder Mage!
"Congratulations, player! Skill creation successful. Would you like to view it now?"
