Chapter 23 Chapter23- The Formidable Blue Sea
Inside the Live Stream:
"Hahaha, why is this guy saying one thing and doing another? Wasn't it him who just said that only a fool would buy this?"
"This World Conqueror is such a joke, he really has a thick face!"
"I swear, if I ever join a guild in the future, I'll never consider Hegemony Guild, these guys are too low."
...
The chatter in the Live Stream didn't affect World Conqueror at all.
But in the crowd, many players cast disdainful glances at him.
World Conqueror didn't care at all.
As long as there were tangible benefits, he didn't mind shooting himself in the foot.
After all, Hegemony Guild didn't need to recruit newbies in the game, they mostly recruited members from their real-life society.
Isabella didn't have any affection for these Hegemony Guild guys either.
However, her professional attitude allowed her to treat all buyers impartially, so she continued to announce:
"A buyer has bid 2.05 million dollars!"
"Any other bids?"
...
"2.05 million dollars for the first time."
...
Soon, someone outbid the 2.05 million dollars.
"I bid 2.2 million dollars."
World Conqueror immediately followed:
"2.25 million dollars!"
Another person raised the bid to 2.3 million dollars.
World Conqueror seemed determined to win this item, and he roared:
"2.35 million dollars!"
At this moment, from the VIP seats, a deep voice sounded:
"3 million dollars."
A surge of astonishment echoed through the entire auction hall.
Everyone was shocked - who was this badass, raised the bid directly from 2.35 million to 3 million dollars?
World Conqueror couldn't hold back anymore.
He turned around in a rage, yelling towards the source of the voice:
"Who the hell is so audacious as to dare to find fault with Hegemony Guild?!"
As he prepared to continue cursing.
He saw the person who had just bid 3 million dollars.
All his prepared insults got stuck in his throat...
The crowd also followed the source of the sound out of curiosity.
Immediately, an eagle-eyed player exclaimed in surprise, "That's the Leader of Blue Sea Guild, Blue Sea!"
"I didn't expect him to be here in person..."
"Yeah, such a high-level figure, actually appearing here."
"Oh my god! What a handsome! No wonder he is the guild leader, he's my idol!"
...
Inside the auction house, exclamations of surprise came from the players in waves.
The viewers in the Live Stream were also not idle, they were frantically updating their comments, expressing their excitement:
"Now we have a good show to watch!"
"Blue Sea Guild Leader is famous for always getting what he wants. I'm afraid no one can compete with him now."
"Not necessarily, right? Although Blue Sea is indeed famous, isn't everyone who can attend this auction house rich and powerful? I think someone might still offer a higher bid."
"Anyway, this guy from Hegemony Guild is headed for a fall, hahaha... He dared to offend Blue Sea, he's f*cked."
"Yeah, look at how scared he looks, I bet he's regretting it now! Hahaha."
...
Inside the temple, John, who was watching the live broadcast, saw that familiar face and couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.
"Blue Sea has made a move..."
"But making some money from him could also be interesting, hehe."
...
Inside the auction house,
World Conqueror, who was just being extremely arrogant and disrespectful, suddenly cowered.
He knew that he couldn't afford to offend the person who just raised the price.
Not to mention himself, Even the entire Hegemony Guild couldn't afford to offend him.
Although everyone in the Hegemony Guild is well-known and influential,
But Blue Sea is the eldest son of the famous Blue House!
Those deep and profound families are not something they can mess with!
So, World Conqueror swallowed nervously, fell silent, and sat back down.
At his submissive attitude, many people at the scene started laughing.
Of course, they laughed, but if they were asked to provoke Blue Sea, they wouldn't dare either.
After Blue Sea made a bid, the people in the hall suddenly fell silent.
It seemed that no one dared to challenge him anymore.
In a VIP seat at the auction house, a mage asked the knight sitting next to him:
"Boss, aren't we making a bid?"
This knight, with the ID "Adam", is the Leader of the famous "Genesis Guild".
Genesis Guild, like Blue Sea Guild, is one of the top 10 guilds in the world and is a top entity in the gaming world.
In the past, Adam would definitely bid.
But today, Adam shook his head and said:
"Blue Sea may look calm, but he is very stubborn. He must have what he wants."
"If he has made a bid, it's not much use for us to bid too, and we might offend him, it's not worth it."
"The price of 3 million dollars is decent for this item."
The mage was a little unwilling,
"But Boss, if we fall behind in this game, we will always be behind... Have you forgotten the level 60 elite skeleton monster we discovered by chance? With this item, we can totally design a way to instantly kill that elite monster!"
"Even if the level 60 monster only drops common equip, its attributes must be very outstanding!"
Adam looked at the mage, smiled very calmly:
"That's why I say, we better not offend Blue Sea."
"Blue Sea is the type of person who, if you give him a bit of respect, he'll give you a lot in return. He values respect," Adam explained.
"If I bid now, it will undoubtedly end up in a mutually destructive battle, and whoever ends up with the item will have to pay a hefty price."
"If I give up, Blue Sea will understand, and I can just buy a portion from him after the auction."
"Isn't there a total of ten drops? We only need one to deal with the level 60 skeleton elite."
Only then did the mage understand the wise intentions of his guild leader.
Yes, bidding like this would only make both sides uncomfortable.
It would be a better plan to let Blue Sea win this round, and then purchase some from him afterward.
He nodded and said, "Alright, I'll follow your lead, Boss."
...
"Is there anyone else who wants to bid higher than 3 million dollars?"
Isabella raised her voice.
"3 million dollars for the first time!"
"3 million dollars for the second time!"
"3 million dollars for the third time... Sold!"
As the gavel sounded, Blue Sea successfully won John's "Legendary Silver Tear" for a price of 3 million dollars.
Of course, other than Isabella and Emma, no one else in the audience knew that the item belonged to John.
Blue Sea looked very satisfied, with a smile on his face.
He raised his glass in a toast to Adam, who was a few seats away.
Adam reciprocated the gesture.
The two gaming titans shared a moment of tacit understanding and exchanged glances filled with mutual respect.
This scene was broadcasted by many Live Streams.
"Wow! Both of them are big shots! I just noticed that Guild Leader Adam is also here!"
"Two of the top 10 guild leaders in the world... The quality of this auction is incredible!"
"They seem to have a great understanding. Have they reached some agreement?"
"Could it be? If they have reached an agreement, does it mean that Blue Sea Guild and Genesis Guild will cooperate? With that combined strength, they could easily contend with the top 3 guilds in the world!"
...
In the temple.
Watching this, John's lips curled into a slight smile.
"I didn't expect Adam to be here."
"It seems that the legendary items Emma and White Feather brought to the auction are quite attractive..."
"I wish I could auction off a legendary item, I'd earn a lot of money."
Thinking this, John shook his head again.
"Forget it, be content with what you have. I've already made 3 million dollars today, minus the fees it's still 2.8 million. Pretty good already."
With that, John, feeling that there wasn't much left to see, and closed the Live Stream.
He couldn't afford to waste his time on leisure.
Other players had been playing this game for over a month already.
And aside from the temple, he hadn't been anywhere else.
If he remained stuck here for a year or more, he would fall far behind the other players...
Thinking about this,
He rallied his spirits, walked into the twisting stone door, and continued leveling up.
