A message flashed before Mark's eyes.
[want to join the auction]
[Yes or no]
Confirming his consent, Mark's eyes were covered with darkness. For a moment he felt the sensation of falling, and in just a breath he was in an easy chair.
Finally, when Mark's dizziness stopped, he was able to afford to look around. Around him were the same people. Some of them were covered in blood, while others were just in their underwear. There were those who just sat and assessed people. Trying to make my own calculation. Everyone was in a large amphitheatre. It was a round building that had no roof, showing the beauty of the stars as they are. Although everything seemed ancient, there were many flowers everywhere, which made the floor and walls. But what is most fascinating is the size. The whole amphitheater accommodated several million people. It was estimated that there were just over three million people here. If the plot is not changed too much.
Trying to get up, Mark, only now realized. That his ability to control his hands, neck and head. Everything else was not felt.
Clap clap. There was a sound from the center where a man with heterochromic eyes appeared. He was wearing a strict suit of a civil servant.
"Greetings to the first auction across the worlds. And I will conduct it Soloist Telander. As you all know, but some don't. You are in dangerous worlds. Some find it more difficult, while others are more comfortable. But not the point.
- The main purpose of the auction is to increase survival, dear ones. For this reason I am here.
- And now I ask you to mentally pronounce the word Shuben to everyone.
Having done as Soloist Mark said, Shuben said. He hadn't tried it before. Since the Soloist at the time of the auction has the right to manipulate the system functions. For example, as a paralysis of the lower body to restrain people.
[Shuben:702
Report:
Rank 1 killed: 302 * 1 = 302
Rank 2 killed: 15 * 20 = 300
Rank 3 killed: 1 * 100 = 100 (Darius Melody was rank 2, but due to the fact that he began to acquire a chaotic element, his rank jumped one higher due to a crazy state, which allowed him to rise for a short time. At the time of death he was third rank.]
- Not so bad. If I think about this amount, I can try to take the main item of the auction. I hope it's worth it, Mark muttered under his breath.
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
So I see you can figure out what's what. Then it's time to move on to the most delicious. The Soloist said, licking the edges of his lips with his tongue, savoring the very atmosphere of the auction.
- And so if someone wants to make a purchase of goods, raise your hand, my rights give me the opportunity to find out who is involved and what his name is, so down with unnecessary thoughts, it's time to start!. Since this is the first auction, let the price of each rise of the goods be ... ten Sheben. He said with an evil smile, from which the hubbub of discontent began to grow.
I see dissenters here. Well, all I can say to that is, TRY MORE NEXT TIME. Shouted Soloist, from poorly contained excitement. .
- And now the first lot. We got it from the very bottom of the sea, of course, with the consent of the Rikan capital. It wasn't easy, but you know. I wouldn't even mind keeping it myself. But alas, and ah.
Bang, a black box appeared from the smoke to the right of the Soloist. The merchant carefully opened it, as soon as the item left the box, it evaporated, taking out of it a sphere filled with a blue liquid in which a piece of paper floated.
– This is a piece of paper with the remains of the blood of an ancient kraken on it. Don't be alarmed by the fluid that surrounds this blood which holds back and relaxes. Upon receipt, you need to inflict a wound on yourself, and put paper on the place of bleeding. And everything else will be done for you. The effect can of course be random. Everything depends on your luck.
"The price for it is twenty Shuben. Who is first?
- I see a hand, dear Mikael Dors. Dear Anatos Fenigan, you know such auctions are not frequent, so take it while you are alive, ah-ha-ha-ha-hah.
The price rose slowly, and in the end the piece of paper was sold for one hundred and thirty Shuben.
"The following item was found during a tour of the sky islands by the monster queen Zorn. He would have gathered dust in her collection if your humble servant had not decided to play it for you.
By the clap of hands, a second black box appeared, slowly and reverently, the Soloist took out a pillow on which there was a ring.
It's the ring of winds. It is useful for those who use wind as an element, and can also be used by others to enhance their attacks by fueling their wind elements.
- And so, the price for it is a hundred Shuben.
"When you think about it, it's an interesting thing. Too bad my element is blood. He is essentially a treasure, in the hands of many mages. It's a pity that for me he will become nothing more than a fan."
As a result, the goods were sold for a fabulous one hundred and fifty Shuben.
"The third item was obtained from the Great Monster Queen Samalina. So stop dragging, here it is. A tear of the sea, in fact, is a manno that thickens under pressure at the very bottom of the sea. Even the sixth rank is not advised to stick his nose there, because of the special life forms that live there.
Taking out a flask with a single drop, everyone could see that the drop itself emits so much light that even the Soloist slightly covered his eyes.
"And so the price for this at the request of the queen of monsters is only ten Shuben." So who gets it?
- A hundred fur coats, said Mark, not wanting to pull. Knowing what this item was, he could not miss such an opportunity. Everyone who is above the fifth rank knows about this subject. It is also called miracle water. So it helps to overcome the limit of the body, and become the fifth rank without any complications. Even the Soloist knows what it is, but apparently by the decree of the queen of monsters Samalina is silent, since this is probably part of the deal knowing the Soloist.
Many from such a wild rate fell into a hubbub starting to look at Mark as a golden pig. And someone even tried to redeem in the hope to try their luck. But Mark was firm, raising the stake again to one hundred and fifty. Seeing this, the auction ended.
"Ho-ho, congratulations Mark Plan. Your eyes are good. I advise you not to show such gizmos in society.
