Terra Nova Online: Rise of The Strongest Player

Chapter 455: Winning Bids (1)

“Next up, item number 50, we have already hit the half-way mark ladies and gentlemen….” Raya said, as Raven unveiled the mysterious item.

“Item 50, The Legendary Snake Stone that was once embedded on the head of the strongest snake recorded in the history of the Empire, ‘Naga’.

This stone has the authority of the Snake-King within it, and gives the wielder the power to control a high number of snakes.

A perfect stone for the ‘Beast Tamer’ class, or any non-combat player” Raya said as the introduction to item 50 blew everyone’s breaths away.

“The starting price of this stone is 5 million gold coins, and the minimum increment is 250,000 coins….. Let the bidding begin–” Raya said, as Leo immediately glanced towards Big Dawg who had his jaw agape looking at the item.

For a while Big Dawg kept staring at it without saying anything, before eventually looking at Leo and giving him the signal that the item was worth 100 million gold coins.

“Alright!” Leo said, rubbing his hands in excitement as he really wanted to get this item for himself.

Since he was a sort of alchemist, he was always in need of poisons and having the ability to control snakes seemed very useful to harvest said poisons.

Also, he could see their potential use in assassination, as if he could control them precisely, he could then deploy them to take out opponents without him having to get involved, which was the most stealthy form of assassination possible.

“5.25 million” said number 33, as the bidding moved awfully slowly even after the amazing item was introduced.

Unfortunately for the majority audience, their funds had been wrung dry by Leo, and 5.25 million was already above the range of what many could afford.

There were hardly 10 bidders left in the room total who had funds over 5 million to spare and Leo was one of them.

“5.5 million from number #98–” Raya announced as Leo raised his placard, as a collective groan could be heard from the entire audience when they saw Leo making a move.

“5.75–” bid number 33 as Leo immediately raised it to 6.

“6 million, by number 98, does anyone bid 6.25?” Raya asked, however, number 33 seemed to have ran out of funds as he could not bid any longer.

“6 million going at once … 6 million going twice…. 6 million going thrice! Sold to number 98” Raya declared, banging her gavel as Leo won his first successful bid of the night, paying just 6% of the item’s true worth.

“Aww man! Why did that guy have to win a bid! I wanted him to return home empty handed!”

“Tch…. I really wanted that gem, however, I did not have the funds to bid on it”

“Huh, I’m happy, atleast number 98 won’t be able to hold the entire auction hostage any longer. He won’t have the funds to place a bid”

“Good riddance, the fool is finally stuck with an item”

Half of the room groaned at Leo finally winning an item, while the other half celebrated it thinking that they had gotten rid of an annoying bidder, however, the people in the room seemed to have severely underestimated Leo’s pockets as he was far from done.

“Congratulations Mr.Boss, you have made a steal–” said Big Dawg as Leo gave him a big smile and a thumbs up.

Sitting in the corner, even Cervantez thought that ‘TheBoss’ was out of the game now having already bid 6 million, as he did not expect a ranker like ‘TheBoss’ who was always busy with leveling up and managing a territory to have much more money left.

However, even he had underestimated Leo’s wealth.

As item 51 was pulled out and revealed to be a one of a kind Assassin’s Robe, Cervantez chuckled at Leo having placed his bid too early as he could presume that he was interested in the item.

“Next item, a legendary grade assassin’s robe which provides complete camouflage when the wearer enters a shadow.

Not only is it nearly weightless weighing less than 200 grams, but it’s also extremely durable, providing near complete immunity to slash damage and considerable protection against stab damage.

It comes equipped with lots of storage pockets and has dedicated hoops to tie an assassins belt around.

A must have item for all thief/assassin class players, it’s one of the last creations of a master grandmaster tailor before she died” Raya said introducing the item, as before she even quoted the price, Leo knew that he wanted that robe.

He was currently wearing Ben’s old Assassin Robe and while the nostalgic set was quite useful and comfortable, his heart bled anytime that it was scratched or damaged.

He had long been looking for a new gear so that he could safely store Ben’s robes away, and today he had gotten the opportunity to do just that.

“The starting price for this item is 2 million gold coins and the minimum price increment is 100,000 gold coins.

Let the bidding begin–” Raya said, as Leo immediately raised his placard to place the first bid for 2 million.

This time, he did not even check with Big Dawg as to how much the item was worth, as regardless of the price, he wanted it.

“2 million from number 98, do we have 2.1?” Raya said, as the entire room turned towards Leo once again, unable to understand why number 98 was still on it and still bidding?

On one hand, the crowd did not want to let Leo walk away with a second item, however, with him having a reputation to bid on items once and then never place a bid again, not many wanted to place a bid on Assassin’s robes, which they had no use for.

Despite how cool Leo made the Assassin Class look, there were hardly any top rankers who were Assassin’s and he was the only one in this room who was one.

Hence, thankfully nobody placed a bid over him for the item. Allowing him to win his second item for the base price of just 2 million gold coins.
