Survival for all, my island is the last pure land on earth.
Chapter 75 The Auction of the Vilanor Empire 4
In less than half an hour, A-Ye's expression went blank for the second time. She burst into tears of joy, choking back sobs several times.
Jin Xiaoman couldn't stand seeing others cry, especially a beautiful girl. She frantically tried to wipe away the girl's tears, but the more she wiped, the more tears streamed down her face like beads from a broken string.
Jin Xiaoman had no choice but to pay first.
As a result, A-Ye raised her hand to stop her: "Sir, after the slave is confirmed to have been bought, he will be specially treated by the auction house. You can think of it as restoring the factory settings. I will lose a lot of memories, and the auction house will also send a new waiter over."
Jin Xiaoman looked up: "Is it okay to talk like that directly?"
Ah Ye: "As long as you're sure you want to buy me, it's fine."
Jin Xiaoman looked relieved as she put the Star River Language Library into her backpack; her reading volume in this short time was equivalent to that of the previous week.
The two huddled together, and A-Ye began helping Jin Xiaoman find some treasures.
Jin Xiaoman paused for a moment when her finger hovered over an item before selecting to buy it.
A-Ye turned her head: "This is too low in cost-effectiveness, sir. It doesn't have any special bonuses."
Jin Xiaoman: "But it's clothes, darling, and I think this is exactly what you need right now."
A-Ye still disagreed. All the slave servants were like that. She couldn't even remember the last time she had worn clothes. It wasn't a big deal.
Jin Xiaoman hadn't planned to return the items, so A Ye put them on.
Jin Xiaoman nodded: "This technology is really amazing. It doesn't matter what size you are wearing, it can automatically adjust to your body. It's very good."
Aye felt a little uncomfortable, as if she was not used to it at all, but she would still listen to Jin Xiaoman's decisions.
At A-Ye's suggestion, Jin Xiaoman bought many things that could help her survive on the deserted island, such as an encyclopedia of plants and animals, a portable spray pen, and a pulse blast whistle.
After a shopping spree, Jin Xiaoman finally prepared 12 game coins to participate in the auction.
thump—
The cannons roared, their heavy booms piercing the noise and reaching the ears of the players attending the auction. The players all held their breath in unison.
The auction officially begins.
As each exhibit was displayed, Jin Xiaoman found the item she wanted at a reasonable price.
[Spirit Max Booster: Permanently increases a player's maximum spirit by 20 points in the Trial Arena. An essential potion for player progression. Starting bid: 5000 game coins, increments: 1000 game coins.]
Jin Xiaoman pressed the price increase button.
Before long, the price of this potion reached 30,000 game coins.
There are likely many players participating in the auction in the trial arena.
Ah Ye gently reminded him, "Sir, this potion is worth at most 40,000; anything more would be unwise."
Jin Xiaoman recalled the rain-praying card she had recently opened from a treasure chest. Each use would deduct 100 spirit points, and there was a very strange sentence in its description.
You'll be unable to resist using it, even if the price is death.
This sentence had bothered her for a long time, and now that she saw the mental value booster, she had to give it a try.
The price quickly soared to 50,000 game coins.
Jin Xiaoman could sense that most players had already given up when the number reached 35,000, and now it was just her and two other players competing for it.
One of them even deliberately provoked through the sky screen: "If you're a player in a survival game, I advise you to be smart and stop now, otherwise you won't even know how you died."
Jin Xiaoman raised an eyebrow; she was the type of person who was most easily provoked.
She pressed the button several times, raising the price to 60,000.
The man sitting in VIP room 777 was so angry at the sight that he laughed.
He grabbed the waiter's collar and said through gritted teeth, "Did you find out what I asked you to find out?"
The waiter, nearly breathless from the tug, stammered, "The waiter in room 888... won't... reveal any... information, only... knows that he's also... a player who survived on a desert island."
The man walked out, glanced at his door number, and grinned crookedly, "Ah, it's section 888."
The price of the Spirit Limit Booster is still soaring, and has already reached 80,000.
Jin Xiaoman gave up after asking for 60,000. One reason was, as A Ye said, that it wasn't worth that price. Another reason was that Jin Xiaoman felt the final price was beyond her reach, so there was no point in her continuing.
As expected, the potion was eventually bought by the mysterious player for 12.
But to Jin Xiaoman's surprise, the player with the number 777 came over again and taunted: "Fine, very well, you dare to openly oppose me. Let me tell you, your death is near."
Jin Xiaoman and A Ye exchanged a glance, reading one sentence from each other's eyes: This person is crazy.
Inside room 777.
The man kicked the waiter serving him to the ground and then ripped off his belt and began whipping the waiter.
The waiter trembled. Normally, the screen would display the room number of the auctioned item. If it didn't, there were only two possibilities: either she was a member of the royal family of the Vilanor Empire, or she had already spent over 100 million game coins on that last item.
Neither of them are beings that the players in their trial grounds can afford to provoke.
Therefore, he could understand why this person would vent their anger on the person in room 888.
However, the waiter couldn't help but mutter to himself, "He started hitting and cursing me as soon as he walked in. I thought he was so capable, but it turns out he's just a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong."
............
[The seventy-fifth item to be auctioned now is the Bodhi Fruit, whose main benefit is longevity. The starting price is 50000 game coins, and the minimum bid increment is 10000 game coins.]
Jin Xiaoman pressed the price increase button.
A-Ye said worriedly, "My lord, this thing is not very useful to you at the moment, and its effect is limited. At most, it can extend your lifespan by a hundred years. It's not worth it."
Jin Xiaoman pointed to the sky: "I'll show you something fun."
Room 888 will be charged an additional 10000.
Room U4783 will incur an additional charge of 10000.
Room 777 will be charged an additional 10000.
Ah Ye chuckled softly.
Jin Xiaoman turned around: "You look quite pretty when you smile. Is this the natural color of your eyes?"
A-Ye subconsciously covered the pink eye and shook her head: "No, there's a monitor inside the eye. Everything I see is transmitted to the control room in real time."
Therefore, all her actions are a high-stakes gamble. If she fails to persuade Jin Xiaoman to buy her back today, she doesn't even know what awaits her...
Death may be the lightest punishment.
Jin Xiaoman turned her head, feeling secretly guilty for bringing up something she shouldn't have.
He pressed the price up button heavily, venting his unhappiness on 777.
Room 777 will be charged an additional 10000.
[Congratulations to room 777 for winning the Bodhi Fruit with a bid of 90000 game coins.]
Jin Xiaoman clapped her hands and changed the subject: "How many game coins do you think he has at most?"
A-Ye: "Based on your situation, Master Man, he probably doesn't have more than 15 game coins."
Jin Xiaoman nodded: "Then we'll trick him again."
[The item to be auctioned now is the 107th item: an Alliance Card. Unlike the Alliance Cards purchased in the Trial Grounds, this card guarantees each alliance member one opportunity to teleport to a teammate per day. In addition, it grants access to extra quests, allowing for greater survival resources. The starting bid is 30000 game coins, with each bid increasing by 5000 game coins.]
Jin Xiaoman raised the bid by 5000, then turned to A Ye and asked, "Do you think 777 will follow suit this time?"
