Chapter 438: Chapter 396, Tears of Asha (Happy New Year’s Eve everyone.)_1
Fang Hao recently learned something about goblin technology from Rolana.
The small and powerless goblins have gained their current status on this mainland due to their intellect and products centered around the ‘Magical Energy Core’.
People generally refer to these products as goblin technology.
The Magic Reactor, also called the Magic Energy Core, is the foundation of this technology.
Explained in a way Fang Hao could understand, it’s like a power plant.
The rest of the goblin technology products are like electrical appliances, relying on the magical reactor output energy to keep them running.
This type of reactor is not a secret, and all races are aware of it.
But this is the first time it has been put up for sale as a product.
After listening to the auctioneer’s eloquent speech,
The audience fell into a brief silence, everyone looked at each other, but no one bid.
Everyone knows the function of the reactor and its inherent value.
However, the magical reactor forms the core energy source of goblin technology, and the development of other races does not rely on the goblin technology.
It’s not clear whether buying it and bringing it back would indeed be valuable.
Even if they have one or two goblin products, they would rely on replacing the energy core to maintain them, and not spend millions on blueprints.
Apart from the transmigrators, native forces may not even be able to build it according to the blueprints after buying it.
The host was confident, but the scene was a bit cold.
“Ladies and gentlemen, we will sell some more magic products later, don’t miss this rare opportunity,” the host spoke again.
Then, from a box room on the 3rd floor, a voice came leisurely, “Eleven million!”
Whoosh!
As soon as these words came out, the whole room buzzed.
For most people here, ten million was already an astronomical figure.
Everyone knew there were some big shots here with lots of cash, but the random mention of this figure still surprised most people.
“Twelve million!” someone bid from the fourth floor.
“Thirteen million!”
“Fourteen million!”
“Fifteen million!”
“…”
“Twenty million!”
The originally quiet box rooms on the third and fourth floor began to compete with each other, bringing the price up to twenty million before a pause in the bidding ensued.
Fang Hao was initially quite interested. This ‘electric energy’-like power source could improve the situation in his territory if leveraged properly.
It could replace human labor, provide basic support, and perhaps be fully realized.
But when the amount reached twenty million, it turned Fang Hao into a spectator.
The price was a bit too high. Buying it at a bone-breaking price may not necessarily be a good thing.
Knowing about the reaction furnace, he can slowly look for blueprints in the future.
Perhaps one day, it would be found in a treasure chest.
Wouldn’t that mean he got a deal of twenty million for free?
Eventually, a box on the fourth floor purchased the blueprint for twenty-five million, astonishing the spectators below with their wealth.
…
The auction continued with a brief intermission, during which refreshments were served.
In the 17th round of bidding, Fang Hao bought an orange-quality Viscera jar.
It cost him five million one hundred thousand Warfire coins.
This was because no one else bid against him. He added just one hundred thousand to the lowest bid and claimed it.
The Viscera jar is a unique magical artifact of the Undead.
It contains the organs of powerful creatures, conferring their abilities on the wielder.
In the territory, there are only two Viscera jars. One contains a Blood Clan’s Revival organ, and the other contains the Lightning Speed organ of a deep-sea species.
Fang Hao initially thought that someone would bid against him.
However, after making his own bid, he realized that he was the only buyer.
Even the legendary Skeleton King – Odys didn’t participate in this auction.
After a while, there was a knock on the door, and a server came in with a wooden box.
He respectfully said, “Sir, these are the items you purchased.”
“Ok, put it here,” Fang Hao pushed the prepared Warfire card towards the server.
The server put down the Viscera jar and carefully checked it.
After confirming everything was right, he respectfully left the room.
Upon opening the upright wooden box, the familiar shape of the Viscera jar was revealed.
Viscera jar (Orange)
Category: Magic Container
Ability: Killing Proficiency
Killing Proficiency: Every time you kill an enemy, attack power increases by 100%, and attack speed by 75% for three seconds.
(Description: In the endless darkness, Death Ravens, adorned with black feathers, hunt for their prey. They dive into the enemy camp, terrifying the intruders, reveling in the wildness within, enjoying the pleasure that slaughter brings.)
Killing Proficiency is considered a very powerful buff attribute.
Three seconds, in terms of team buffing, doesn’t have any negative effects.
Killing foes constantly would refresh this skill, maintaining the attribute of 100% attack power for three seconds.
Therefore, he was quite satisfied with this Viscera jar.
…
After a brief intermission, the auction continued.
Twenty-fifth round!
“The next item to be auctioned is, the Tears of Asha!” the host banged his gavel, “The starting price is nine million, each bid must not be less than one hundred and fifty thousand.”
The Tears of Asha is said to be the tears shed by the gods.
It belongs to a very rare category of materials.
Far more rare than Solar Essence and Trace of the Earth, these materials are exceedingly scarce.
Only a few special buildings or items require this type of material: Tears of Asha.
Also, because it is so rare and expensive, a high threshold was set.
