Chapter 20 The Price of Gold

The price of 20 gold stunned all the players present.

The players who could come to the Blackwing Auction House were not simple, but they still couldn't afford this price.

Although the players present had a lot of wealth provided by their guilds, it was only a dozen gold. Even the extremely wealthy guilds only had twenty or so gold. They wouldn't make a big fuss over two daggers. Even if those two daggers were both level 15 super-quality weapons, which could instantly turn a master assassin into a top assassin, they wouldn't be of any real help to the guild.

Even if these people could afford it, they wouldn't spend 20 gold to buy them.

After the hammer fell for the third time, announcing the owner, the expressions of shock on everyone's faces turned into ridicule.

"This guy is too stupid. He spent 20 gold for two daggers. I don't know who he's trying to please, but he's so generous."

"Hahaha, there's one less competitor."

"20 gold, a big tycoon!"

Afterward, Shi Feng paid 20 gold, got the two daggers, and started the auction for the next item.

Purgatory Shadow, one-handed sword, Dark Gold rank (can be upgraded twice), equipment level 20.

Attack +273.

Strength +30, Agility +25, Endurance +22, Attack Speed +2.

20% chance to cause 3x damage, 10% chance to reduce the target's damage by 20% for 30 seconds, not stackable.

Comes with skill Purgatory Power, attack speed increased by 100%, damage increased by 30%, duration 15 seconds, cooldown time two minutes.

In God's Domain, weapons and equipment can be divided into two types, one is upgradeable equipment, and the other is non-upgradeable equipment.

Most weapons and equipment cannot be upgraded, only a very small number of rare weapons and equipment can be upgraded. Generally speaking, Epic quality weapons and equipment can automatically increase with the player's level, but weapons and equipment below Epic level rarely have this ability.

"Can be upgraded twice? As expected of a treasure from the auction house, it can be upgraded to level 30, allowing players to use it until level 45 without being eliminated." Shi Feng was very satisfied with this weapon. He could equip the Purgatory Shadow directly when he reached level 20, so he wouldn't have to spend time looking for weapons.

This Purgatory Shadow is not only suitable for swordsmen, but also for shield warriors and guardian knights. If an MT (Main Tank) equips it, not only will their HP be greatly increased, but their damage can also be increased a lot. They can also pull monsters more stably. The most important point is that it reduces the damage caused by the target by 20%. It's simply a Boss battle weapon, especially important for team dungeons.

Compared to the previous two Fine-Gold daggers, this Dark-Gold Purgatory Shadow is of great help to the guild.

However, the starting price of Purgatory Shadow is not low.

The price of 15 gold is enough to make many guilds daunted, they can only watch and do nothing.

"This sword belongs to me, no one can snatch it from me!"

"Who do you think you are? Our Xiongba Tianxia (Dominating the World) has taken a fancy to this sword. Anyone who dares to bid will be against us."

"Do you think you're the only top-tier guild here? Our guild is the Bloodthirsty War God. Anyone who dares to bid is dead."

…

Because the starting price was too high, if the competition was fierce, no one knew what price it would reach, so the major first-rate guilds began to warn other guilds, hoping to buy the Purgatory Shadow cheaply.

"How foolish." Shi Feng shook his head helplessly.

Don't these people really think that only players are buying items? It's said to be a starting price of 15 gold, but according to Shi Feng's understanding, it will have to reach at least 25 gold or more to win it, otherwise it will be bought by an NPC. Do these first-rate guilds think that they can exploit loopholes by threatening others?

As the bidding began, the price of Purgatory Shadow also rose all the way.

In an instant, it reached 20 gold.

All the competitors were first-rate guilds. Second- or third-rate guilds simply didn't have the funds to compete. They could only watch quietly with reluctance. There was no way, this was the gap between guilds.

In the front row, Shusheng Tanxiao (Scholar Chatting and Laughing) was also very helpless at this time. If he hadn't been tricked by Wei Wo Du Kuang (Egotistical Madman), he might have bought the two daggers and this Purgatory Shadow long ago, and other guilds would have to stand aside.

After competing for a few minutes, the price finally reached its end.

24 gold and 30 silver, this price is really low for a level 20 superb Dark-Gold weapon, let alone a Dark-Gold weapon that can be upgraded.

"Hahaha, this Purgatory Shadow is mine." Seeing that no one was competing, the Berserker of Xiongba Tianxia cheered.

The people from other guilds could only show unwilling expressions. The auction was not about comparing power, it was just about who had more money.

Just as the auction hammer fell for the second time, someone finally called out a price, and more than one person.

"25 gold."

"26 gold."

"This sword has a very good shape and can be kept as a collection. I'll offer 30 gold coins."

At this time, a great nobleman from Blackwing City opened an amazing price, which stunned all the guilds.

"Why are NPCs also competing?"

This question puzzled everyone. If NPCs competed with them, how could they compete? They were NPCs, and still a great nobleman from Blackwing City. How could players possibly compete?

"Damn it, this auction is obviously playing with us, only letting us players compete for non-precious items."

"If I had known this, I really should have bought those two Fine-Gold daggers."

"That person is really lucky, I didn't expect the two daggers to be so cheap for him."

At this time, many players were full of regret, they didn't expect the auction house to make such a move.

"31 gold."

At this time, a familiar… indifferent voice rang out in the venue, and everyone's eyes turned to the source of this indifferent voice. Everyone was extremely shocked, and their eyes showed an unbelievable look.

Because the person who called out this price was Shi Feng, who had previously spent 20 gold to buy two Fine-Gold daggers. Now he was bidding 31 gold again.

"How much money does this guy have?" Everyone suspected that Shi Feng had robbed an NPC nobleman, otherwise how could he be so rich.

After Shi Feng called out 31 gold, the great nobleman also called out a price of 32 gold.

However, Shi Feng was not willing to fall behind, and called out 33 gold.

The two sides went back and forth, and the price climbed steadily, making everyone look stunned and dumbfounded.

In the end, Shi Feng bought the Purgatory Shadow for 39 gold.

After that, after several rounds of auctions, the general prices were not very high. Compared with Shi Feng's spending 39 gold to buy the Purgatory Shadow, it was not worth mentioning at all.

There was also a treasure once, which was a Dark-Gold leather armor, but Shi Feng was not interested, and was finally bought by an NPC for 32 gold.

Until the auction entered its final stage, the auction of the third treasure finally began.

It was also regarded as the finale item of this auction. The starting price of 30 gold alone made all the guilds give up, because they already knew that if they wanted to buy this thing, it would have to exceed 50 gold or more. Unless several first-rate guilds united their funds, they would not be able to buy it at all. However, such a union was impossible for many first-rate guilds.

Lending gold coins to other guilds at this time would be helping the enemy. Even if everyone united together, and the final things were divided together, but there was only one thing, and there was no way to divide it, so the various guilds did not unite together at all.
