Reborn: Super God of War Chapter 176

“The final item is next… I believe everyone in the auction now is here for this . ” Bella smiled slightly before stretching out her hand and waving it . Then, a huge light screen appeared in the air, revealing a number: 0!

“This auction is coming to an end, I think, as compared to the next item, I am completely an unnecessary decoration . This stage no longer needs me, an auctioneer to provoke your emotions, right?” Bella added coolly, “I believe, it's needless for me to state the importance of the City Leader Token . I trust that everyone has stored up a large number of gold coins for this bidding, right?

“The gold coins of the Central Auction House have already been completely sold, and as always, the system has set the auction rules as 'the bidding price cannot exceed the number of gold coins one has by 120%' . However, this time, we have made a modification to that rule!” Bella sounded in high spirits as she said excitedly, “For this auction, the bidding price will be 300% the number of gold coins that one has! Everyone, bid to your heart's content!”

All the lighting in the auction was suddenly turned off . In the next instant, it came back on . That beautiful and enchanting auctioneer had already disappeared from the stage, only leaving one item—City Leader Token!

The auction had begun!

“20,000 gold coins!” The Heavenly Shield grinned and instantly raised the base bidding price to 20,000! One could only see the light being instantly destroyed before gathering to form a huge number floating in the air: Ironwall Empire—20,000 gold coins!

That name, not only appeared within the auction, it even appeared at the square! Everyone could see that name!

“Heaven's Wrath Dynasty bids 30,000!”

“The Dead's Amusement Park bids 35,000 gold coins!”

The light ray frequently changed as the price rose, names appeared within everyone's line of sight one after the other!

Lin Jie calmly sat on his seat, it was still far from the start of the show! Changing the bidding price to thrice above the limit, naturally, it was one of the benefits he had asked from the Archangel .

What was the City Leader Token? Simply speaking, before the players' cognition was enough to clearly assess their situation, if one of the guilds obtained the City Leader Token and tried to attack any of the cities, then they'd either become the entire NPCs' public enemy or become the powerful leader of all guilds!

Those who are not our kin are sure to have a different heart, to the person that was about to obtain the City Leader Token, which NPC would mind for him to spend a little more money?

No matter who obtained the City Leader Token, in the end, the one who benefited the most would always be Lin Jie! Those players, who were unable to bid at will due to the lack of gold coins in their hands, could totally bid without any worries! To Lin Jie, it was simply a deal that had guaranteed profits!

'If these smaller guilds could be smarter…' Lin Jie's lips curved into a smile, anticipating the development of the situation .

“40,000!”

“45,000!”

The price rose rapidly!

“Too stingy…” Baili Xuanyuan calmly said, “100,000 gold coins!”

Swoosh!

The light changed and was converted into a few large words: Baili Xuanyuan—100,000 gold coins!

Boom!

The whole game world was astonished!

100,000 gold coins! 100,000 gold coins!

That was a real-life investment up to $20,000,000! $20,000,000 may not seem much in real life, but don't forget, this was a game! $20,000,000 just for a token!

The influence of The New Age rose crazily from this event!

Such a huge amount instantly overpowered everyone else, and the auction turned silent!

“Not counting down now, what are you waiting for?” shouted Baili Xuanyuan . The light gathered to form a number: 1! The auction rule was a countdown to three! One third was already locked on!

The price of 100,000 gold coins was too high! The number of gold coins they had was less than 340,000 gold coins, they did not even have the qualifications to bid!

Even if it were the many guild leaders sitting in the VIP seats, they also did not have the qualifications to bid!

“Old Shield, you can start now,” said Lin Jie in the communication device as he squinted his eyes .

“Brothers, anyone with money to spare, lend me a little!” The Heavenly Shield stood up from the VIP seats and said with a laugh, “10% interest!”

Baili Xuanyuan's face darkened . 'That damn bast*rd!'

No one lent their money to The Heavenly Shield, but his action had already acted as a reminder to the mid-sized guilds' leaders . The guilds that were on good relations immediately exchanged gold coins without restraint; their eyes were filled with the joy of their scheme succeeding .

“110,000!”

“120,000!”

The price that stagnated for quite some time jumped up again!

Baili Xuanyuan's face instantly turned red, the bidding price was already increasing by 10,000 with every bid! Every time a bid was called, it was $1,000,000 in cash! If those old things in his family knew…

“180,000!”

The price jumped up abruptly, and the light was refreshed!

The person that shouted out that price was “Steel Alliance”! The three guilds had finally joined forces once again under the push of this auction to fight the enemy together . Once they bid the City Leader Token and successfully obtained the city, that money would definitely be able to be gained back! Not only so, to a guild, if there was a city as a backup, sponsor fees, endorsement fees… It was definite that their value would rise with it, without a doubt!

It was worth to fight for it!

Baili Xuanyuan's body trembled . That price, even he could not continue following!

“Retrieve all your guild's stored gold coins!” shouted Baili Xuanyuan to Demon Robe and Eighteen Massacres . He must continue to raise money now! If he succeeded this time, then he could perfectly implement the following plans! By then, it would be the time where he would bring the funds from real life into the game, there would definitely be no one in the game world that could stop him!

Demon Robe's eyes flashed as he said with a bitter face, “Boss, Dark-Robed Knights' reserve is already exhausted . ”

Eighteen Massacres scoffed, he knew Demon Robe's personality too well . That person was a real yellow dog! However, he was not! Eighteen Massacres said coldly, “Kingdom of Glory can at most provide you with 20,000 gold coins, but I have a condition . ”

“Shoot!”

“Codename Lone Wolf, all of the items on him will be mine!”

Baili Xuanyuan's eyes gaze turned cold, but he said coolly, “Alright!”

“Steel Alliance bids 180,000, going twice!”

The light flashed, and at the last moment, Baili Xuanyuan shouted loudly, “200,000 gold coins!”

200,000 gold coins! All of the players and their friends were astonished… Their jaws dropped, leaving their mouths wide open, speechless…

The light turned into a huge hammer and smashed down firmly, it was sold!

The City Leader Token slowly flew in front of Baili Xuanyuan!

The City Leader Token, Baili Xuanyuan had its final ownership!

The light dimmed, and countless clusters of light enveloped the players, indicating Teleportation . There would be a Random Teleportation after the auction ended, which covered the whole radius of City of Light to protect the safety of the buyers .

A ray of light rose beside Lin Jie, and his body gradually disappeared . He crossed his arms as he looked at Baili Xuanyuan, but a shred of an unusual smile flashed in his eyes .

The auction was brought to a successful close! The hundreds of system prompt messages crazily bombarded his screen! Just Lin Jie alone, his profit was as high as 220,000 gold coins! Deducting the channel fees, the net income was 200,000 gold coins! Amongst it, most of the money came from the City Leader Token!

Distributing half of his gains to the system, the number of gold coins in Lin Jie's possession was as high as 100,000!

He was generous and split 20,000 gold coins to be distributed into the hands of Brotherhood's members; as long as any of those members had joined in the Thunder Silver-Feathered Eagle battle, they all received at least 4 gold coins as a reward! That made countless of players, who had been completing their missions instead of joining the activity, thump their chests and stamp their feet in regret .

30,000 was reserved for the Sky Provisions Shop . Meanwhile, the rest of the 50,000 gold coins were all exchanged into cash! As the sales amount was too large, the number of players selling gold coins at the same period after the auction increased by over ten times, so it was only sold at a 150 to 1 ratio .

Even so, his bank card still quickly inflated! In the blink of an eye, it exceeded $7,000,000!

Also, the official website grabbed this chance to wantonly report about this matter! A millionaire created in one night! A game item was auctioned off at the ridiculously high price of 200,000, about $40,000,000 in cash!

This piece of news also rapidly occupied countless headlines the following week, The New Age's commerce value attracted countless magnates .

Baili Xuanyuan immediately started to make preparations intensively after obtaining the City Leader Token! With the City Leader Token in hand, the earlier the city was seized, the higher the economical profits obtained! Naturally, the target would be City of Light! What other city had such a trashy City Leader?

Meanwhile, after the auction, Lin Jie spent four hours of time to send Silent Grey Sky, who obtained the divine equipment, Miners Hoe, to the level 45 map Endless Volcanoes, allowing her to mine the respawned Earth Core Ore . Then, he returned to City of Light .

Baili Changcheng had been waiting for him there long ago .

“My uncle has obtained the City Leader Token . If he occupies the city, then I'm afraid that he will gain a steady position within the game . In addition, this time's auction even had a deep influence—him reporting to the company and requesting to try out the investment of assets goes without saying,” said Baili Changcheng . “By then, with our company's formidable financial power, he will completely occupy a place in the game! Meanwhile, the share on my father's side will definitely be diluted!”

Lin Jie nodded his head seriously and said, “I said I would help you . Naturally, I will help you!”

“What are you planning to do?”

“What I'm going to do?” Lin Jie smiled slightly . “Didn't he want to obtain a city? Then, we will stop him!”

Baili Changcheng was taken aback . “How are we going to stop him? With his wealth, temporarily buying tens of guilds to be cannon fodder is nothing to him!”

“I have my ways . ” Lin Jie hesitated for a long time and said, “Follow me . ”

Baili Changcheng followed behind Lin Jie and walked outside the city . All along, he kept on thinking in his heart, what could they do to stop the city siege?

Was Fu Sheng bringing him to a suitable area for an ambush? Was he going to bring his Brotherhood members there?

Or were they planning to dig traps in advance and let the city siege be ruined in the preparation stage?

Gradually, they reached a mountain . The bandits spawned in the surrounding were those with exceptionally weak levels and attributes . Baili Changcheng frowned and checked the map, it was Qifeng Mountain .

What were they doing there?

Lin Jie took a look at the cave in front of his eyes and smiled as he said, “This is the key to stopping the city siege . ”

“This… It's impossible right?” said Baili Changcheng in a tone filled with disbelief .

“Wait for me here . ” Lin Jie took off his helmet and walked in there casually . The few bandits saw Lin Jie and greeted him one after the other, with sentences like “Benefactor, you've come? Hurry, come, and sit inside . Boss was just troubled that there was nothing to rob . ”

“Yoho, Brother Fu Sheng!” The Bandit Boss saw Lin Jie and walked out merrily to welcome him .

These days, the bandits' robbing records were dismal, not to mention leveling up, they could not even satisfy their hunger . Now that he saw the expert that had successfully brought his brothers to rob City of Light, the Bandit Boss was instantly overjoyed .

Lin Jie sat on the stool heavily and took out a bottle of good wine from his backpack . The Bandit Boss hurriedly grabbed it and directly gulped it down, shouting out in satisfaction .

“Big brother, brother me has brought another good errand, I'm not sure if you are interested or not?”

“A good errand? Tell me about it . ” The Bandit Boss brought his ears closer .

“This time we will go and kidnap… The City Leader's wife . ”
