"Distinguished guests, welcome to the [Special Auction of Transcendent Items] hosted by the Ximenjia Consortium. This auction features 1500 items of various types, ranging from two-star to five-star in quality, from common to Immortal... I am the auctioneer for this auction, George Endler."

Under the spotlight, a very young Guta Star People was bowing respectfully to all directions, his demeanor impeccably polite.

Logo sat in the box, glanced at the auctioneer named George, and then moved on.

"As expected, there's more than one!" Logo's gaze pierced through the layers of barriers and landed on an Guta Star People was also in a private room.

The latter, lacking Kate's perception, remained completely unaware of Logo's spying and continued to enjoy the delicate pastries in her hands.

"The same state and aura..."

Logo muttered to himself, retrieving publicly available information about this person from his mental database.

He soon discovered that this person was also a government official of the Guta Federation, but in a much lower position Kate.

But to ordinary people, he was still an absolute big shot.

"This is going to be good!" Logo's lips curled into a slight smile.

Although the exact cause of the problem inside the Planet Guta has not been determined.

But it's definitely not a good thing.

As the uncrowned king of the Erwin plane, once the Guta Federation is in turmoil, it will inevitably cause changes in the entire plane.

It's easy to fish in troubled waters.

Chaos is a ladder!

For Logo, the more chaotic the world, the better; only a raging fire of chaos can create enough opportunities for progress.

Thoughts swirled in his mind like scattered petals, and after letting them drift freely for a while, Logo finally turned his attention to the auction.

Just then, after George's brief warm-up, the auction officially began.

"The first item up for auction is a True Dragon Mecha set, a four-star Legend quality, produced by the Crimson Alliance on Planet Oklo."

The raw materials for the mecha came from a Legendary Tier Three Silver Dragon.

As is widely known, the Silver Dragon's magical talent is unparalleled among the Dragon Clan.

Therefore, this True Dragon Mecha also possesses extremely high elemental affinity, making it especially suitable for spellcasters.

Wearing it, the combat power of Ordinary Legendary Mage can at least double...

George lavishly praised the silver mech displayed on the metal rack beside him.

Many eyes were focused on the True Dragon Mecha.

Logo glanced at it briefly before looking away.

No other reason than that I can't afford it.

As expected, after George finished explaining all the details about the True Dragon Mecha, he scanned the room and announced the starting bid.

Starting bid: 30 million Ta Pound; minimum increment: 100,000 Ta Pound!

A three-star Legend quality mech can sell for tens of millions, let alone a four-star Legendary.

There was already a significant gap between four-star and three-star equipment.

In addition, there's a huge gap between Rare and Legend quality.

That's like two chasms.

Prices would increase tenfold at the very least.

Moreover, the True Dragon Mecha is already a top-tier luxury item, and since it's also suitable for wealthy players like mages, its price will increase several times over.

Logo estimates that the final transaction price for this four-star Legend quality True Dragon Mecha will likely be no less than 500 million Ta Pound.

The Campbell Family simply cannot afford that amount of money.

Even if the three major clans combined, they couldn't come up with the money, since the auction required cash.

The three major clans primarily possessed fixed assets.

Just as Logo had predicted, the price of the True Dragon Mecha skyrocketed as wealthy spellcasters raised their bids.

Ultimately, the transaction price reached an astonishing 560 million Ta Pound, and it was successfully purchased by a human Mage with white hair and beard.

After consulting the database, Logo discovered that this person came from the Tia Empire on the Planet Oklo and was the ancestor of a certain spellcaster family.

A successful opening sale instantly heightened the atmosphere of the auction.

George's face lit up with delight upon seeing this, and he quickly brought out the second item for auction.

As time passed, the auction items were either bought or failed to sell, proceeding in an orderly manner.

During this process, Logo purchased several high-end, Transcendent materials needed to craft the alchemy tower and also acquired a Legendary piece of equipment for Gain.

A pair of mechanical combat boots named "Destroyer," of four-star common quality, sold for 14 million Ta Pound, which is considered relatively cheap among Legendary equipment.

Even so, Gain was quite excited.

This is Legendary equipment; each additional piece can significantly increase his combat power.

As for Logo, Gain were already like leeks in his own field, spending a little more money on fertilizer was nothing.

Only with strong bodyguards can you better protect yourself.

Not to mention, after obtaining the Destroyer Boots, Gain's gaze towards him became much gentler.

No one can withstand wave after wave of financial power.

Before we knew it, the auction was nearing its end.

"The following is item number 1264: a contaminated Holy Tradition Crystal. Its grade is unknown, but the appraiser estimates it to be at least 4 stars. Its quality is also unknown, but the appraiser estimates it to be at least Legend quality."

Starting bid: 3 million Ta Pound; minimum increment: 50,000 Ta Pound.

After George finished speaking, a loud laugh came from the upper private room, "I have to say, you Ximenjia Auction House are really something, this heirloom crystal has failed to sell so many times, and you still won't lower the price."

Who would be so bored as to spend three million Ta Pound silver on a tainted heritage crystal? The heritage knowledge within might even be distorted.

This remark was met with bursts of laughter from the auction hall.

George gave an awkward smile. He had long since given up on this persistent customer, but unfortunately, the boss insisted on not lowering the price, and there was nothing he could do. As an employee, he had no choice.

However, to everyone's surprise, not long after George announced the starting bid, a clear young male voice echoed out.

"3.05 million!"
