Chapter 335 - Auction in Imperial City
Chapter 335 Auction in Imperial City
Ninth place: Rose Pavilion–this was a very special guild, because its members were all female players, and half of the top 10 beauty players in goddess list in Huaxia District were in this guild, including national beauty Chu Mengying, who was the vice-chairman of this guild. As a purely female guild, there were not many members and it had general combat power, so it shouldn’t have such a good ranking. However, because of the property of the guild, not only it had many aggressive guards, but also there were no guilds declared war on them. In addition, all the guilds in Huaxia District except the overlord guilds had been disabled. Therefore, Rose Pavilion, who had never participated in the hegemony battle from the beginning to the end, due to the other guilds’ rankings went down, finally ranked ninth.
Tenth place: Money Chamber–this was an alliance of an old chamber of commerce. Many well-known big businessmen and chaebol had settled in. Naturally, they were all affected by Treasure Pavilion and they had no other choice. Treasure Pavilion was too strong and they had no chance to get ahead. If they didn’t unit, they would be over. This time, it was not easy to gain a little reputation through the battle for hegemony. The ranking was the same as Rose Pavilion. Because it did not participate in the battle, plus other guilds’ rankings dropped, it ranked tenth somehow.
At present, Huaxia District had temporarily stabilized. After the battle for hegemony, all major forces, including the hegemony-level guilds, had been exhausted. It was necessary to hurry up to supplement the lost levels and equipment, so it was burning money to battle. According to incomplete statistics, in this hegemony battle, the consumption of consumable such as potions and teleport scrolls had reached hundreds of millions of gold coins! This was tens of billions of real coins!
Not to mention the teleport costs. The farther away the main city was, the more expensive the teleport costs would be. The teleport costs in the days of hegemony battles would definitely not be lower than consumables.
These gold coins were all money, which were totally taken back by the system. Since the game was opened service, the money that players in Huaxia District had made through the game world was nearly taken back a lesser part.
The loss of levels was nothing compared those. But the number of equipment that dropped in the battlefield was countless, which was equivalent to return to the system. It was also a huge loss.
You could see that at the entrance of the 25th level instance zone, a master with Golden Equipment at level 30 was now not only at level 28, but also asking for a team in a white suit.
In the past, relying on equipment and level leadership, a large instance zone which needed a 20-people team could pass through easily with only ten master players. But now, it was still those ten players, even if they made a full 20-people team, they still failed in succession.
Back to the beginning once…
Therefore, it was reasonable for the temporary suspension of the hegemony battle, especially after the opening of the equipment durability system, they couldn’t afford the hegemony battle any more. All forces, including the overlords, were developing silently, wanting to buffer and get some funds back first. Otherwise no one could afford it.
Those presidents of the hegemonic guilds were all glorious in front of people, but after watching the guild’s fiscal deficit, they would must burst out crying and wipe their tears.
Huaxia District had entered a period of peaceful development again. At the same time, due to the newly updated system, the residential areas of major cities were also selling hotly, especially some major cities with good environment. The body of players wouldn’t disappear after logging off meant that the residential area in the game world was equal to the player’s home in this world!
And when it came to the main city that attracted the most attention, it was naturally the human imperial city in Huaxia District. It was a pity that when players wanted to buy the residential area of the imperial city, they were surprised to find that there was no residential area and commercial area for sale.
It was really meaningful to buy a house in imperial city, which was just like buying a house in the capital in reality. However, imperial city did not sell houses at all. Was there no way to live in imperial city?
“District shout! The branch of Treasure Pavilion in imperial city will open at 12 o’clock tonight, the center of the imperial city’s business district! An auction will be held at that time! There is only one auction product that is the districts of imperial city!”
“District shout! The branch of Treasure Pavilion in imperial city will open at 12 o’clock tonight, the center of the imperial city’s business district! An auction will be held at that time! There is only one auction product that is the districts of imperial city!”
“District shout! The branch of Treasure Pavilion in imperial city will open at 12 o’clock tonight, the center of the imperial city’s business district! An auction will be held at that time! There is only one auction product that is the districts of imperial city!”
When countless players in Huaxia District were struggling to find a way to purchase imperial city residential area, three consecutive district shouts sounded throughout the Huaxia District at this time!
The district shout was a unique function of imperial city, just like the main cities could shout the whole city. The shouting function of imperial city was facing the whole district, including Orc Empire and Elf Empire. Although they couldn’t receive voice messages, they could still see the text message.
It was just that the price of district shout was very high. 10,000 gold coins for once, which were equivalent to 1 million real coins. Few people would be willing to do so. Of course, this was not a big deal for Treasure Pavilion according to its financial power.Access v ip novel
When these three shouts came out, the Huaxia district was immediately shocked again. Originally, it was the peak period after the game was maintained, plus the reputation of Treasure Pavilion, all players in Huaxia District knew it after the district shout came out.
Ordinary players might still feel nothing, because the auctioned item was not important to them. Only the major forces were very moved by it!
Auction the districts of imperial city!
What did this mean! The imperial city was the core of future players’ activities, and the districts were completely the economic lifeline!
The first thing that almost all major powers did after entering imperial city was to desperately brush up quests and fame points, just in order to be able to get a district of imperial city in the shortest time!
However, before they made any progress, Treasure Pavilion had already established a branch in imperial city! Not only that, but also it would auction the districts of imperial city!
“Hurry up! Send someone to imperial city! Go to Treasure Pavilion’s branch to buy a ticket of the auction!”
For a time, all the major forces were moved and sent people to imperial city. Although the average level of players in Huaxia District dropped after the hegemony battle, many players who originally had got to level 30 fell to below level 30 and lost the qualification to enter imperial city. But the major forces were not short of masters. They could find several 30-level masters easily.
Therefore, you could see a scene that the originally desolate imperial city that was originally a bit desolate once again swarmed into a large number of players, all rushing towards the business district just to be able to snap up a ticket of Treasure Pavilion auction.
Fortunately, their worries were superfluous, because the branch of Treasure Pavilion was very large in imperial city, which was larger than the main building of Tianlong City. Plus that they limited that each player could only buy one ticket, so there was no cases that players couldn’t get tickets.
Although some of them were also affected by the battle for hegemony, the players who could still enter the imperial city today were truly capable and identifiable. Those ordinary players who wanted to join in the fun couldn’t even enter the imperial city, let alone bought tickets for the auction.
Thousands of auction tickets and private room tickets had been sold out. The price of the Treasure Pavilion ticket was very high, but those who could come to buy the tickets did not care about the price. Treasure Pavilion earned several times of the cost of district shout with only selling the tickets. Qian Duoduo never endured any loses.
With the time approaching 12 o’clock in the evening, the huge auction venue was fully seated half an hour ago. With all the whispers and anticipation, 12 o ‘clock arrived on time. In the sudden light, Qian Duoduo’s beautiful figure appeared on the exhibition stand in the auction hall.
“Welcome everyone to come to the opening auction of the Treasure Pavilion branch in imperial city. I am Qian Duoduo. Presumably the people who can be here today are not ordinary people. I won’t say much nonsense. Let me introduce this auction first.” Qian Duoduo said with crisp voice while her eyes moved across the whole venue and 15 boxes before she continued to say.
“The products at this auction are special. After all, the Treasure Pavilion branch opens in the imperial city. Therefore, the auctioned goods also need to conform to the status of the imperial city. There are ten products in this auction, and every one of them is the title deed of business district in imperial city!”
No one spoke at the huge auction venue, but at this moment countless gasps sounded!
It was really an auction for the districts of imperial city! Not only it was the business districts which were the most valuable, but also there were ten title deeds!
At this moment, thousands of representatives of the most powerful forces in Huaxia District on the field were all stunned to look at the slim girl on the booth. Although it had been known for a long time that Treasure Pavilion must be very powerful and had amazing background, they didn’t expect that it could get to this degree… Too exaggerated!
Fortunately, the top forces in Huaxia District basically all had connections with Treasure Pavilion before, so they just held their surprises down and continued to listen to Qian Duoduo.
“In addition, there are two additional rules for today’s auctions. One is that players in Antiquity are not allowed to participate in the auction, and the other is that players in Money Chamber are not allowed to participate in the auction.”
Qian Duoduo’s words finally caused a commotion in the auction venue.
Many people showed a surprised look. As chamber of commerce, Treasure Pavilion was based on its own interests. It should not participate in the disputes of the major forces. But at this moment it openly stated, which was obviously an irrational behavior to offend the two forces.
Only the members of the Antiquity and Money Chamber who were mentioned showed long faces. They all sat in the hall of the venue, and countless eyes were cast on them at this moment, most of them were gloating.
