Chapter 241 Awe-Inspiring Wealth
Twenty gold coins! That price shocked all the players present.
The players who could come to the Shadowwing Auction House were not simple, but they still couldn't afford this price.
Although the players present had considerable wealth provided by their guilds, it was only around ten gold, and even the very wealthy guilds had just over twenty gold. They wouldn't make a big deal over two daggers, even if those two daggers were top-tier level 15 weapons that could instantly elevate a skilled Assassin to a top-tier Assassin. However, they wouldn't provide any substantial help to the guild.
Even if these people could afford it, they wouldn't spend 20 gold to buy it.
After the hammer struck for the third time to announce the winner, the crowd's shock turned into ridicule.
"This guy is so stupid, spending 20 gold on two daggers. Who is he trying to please, being so generous?"
"Hahaha, one less competitor."
"20 gold, what a big spender!"
Eric then paid 20 gold, took the two daggers, and the auction moved on to the next item.
Infernal Shadeblade, One-Handed Sword, Obsidian Level (can be upgraded twice), equipment level 20.
Attack +273.
Strength +30, Agility +25, Stamina +22, Attack Speed +2.
20% chance to deal triple damage, 10% chance to reduce the target's damage by 20% for 30 seconds, not stackable.
Comes with the skill Infernal Fury, increases attack speed by 100%, increases damage by 30%, lasts for 15 seconds, cooldown of two minutes.
In Divine Realms: Legends, weapons and equipment can be divided into two types: upgradable and non-upgradable.
The vast majority of weapons and equipment cannot be upgraded. Only a very few rare weapons and equipment can be upgraded. Generally speaking, Epic Level quality weapons and equipment can automatically upgrade with the player's level, but weapons and equipment below Epic Level rarely have this ability.
"Can be upgraded twice? No wonder it's an auction house treasure. It can be upgraded to level 30 and can be used until level 45 without being outdated." Eric was very satisfied with this weapon. The Infernal Shadeblade could be equipped directly when he reached level 20, saving him the time to look for weapons.
'The Infernal Shadeblade is not only suitable for Swordsmen but also for Shield Warriors and Guardian Knights. If an MT uses it, their health will be greatly increased, their damage will also increase significantly, and they can hold aggro more steadily. The most important point is that it reduces the target's damage by 20%, making it a great tool for boss fights, especially important for team dungeons.'
Compared to the previous two Adamantite daggers, this Obsidian Level Infernal Shadeblade was of great help to the guild.
However, the starting price of the Infernal Shadeblade was not low.
The price of 15 gold was enough to deter many guilds; they could only watch and do nothing.
"This sword is mine, no one better compete with me!"
"Who do you think you are? Our Supremacy Alliance has its eyes on this sword. Anyone who bids is against us."
"Do you think you're the only top-tier guild here? Our guild is Bloodlust Warlords. Anyone who bids is dead."
Because the starting price was too high, if the competition was fierce, who knew what the price would reach. So, the top-tier guilds began to warn other guilds, hoping to buy the Infernal Shadeblade cheaply.
'How foolish!' Eric shook his head helplessly.
Did these people really think that only players would buy items? The starting price was 15 gold, but according to Eric's understanding, it would take at least 25 gold to win it, or it would be bought by an NPC. Did these top-tier guilds think they could take advantage by threatening others?
As the bidding began, the price of the Infernal Shadeblade quickly rose.
It instantly reached 20 gold.
The competition was all among top-tier guilds; second or third-tier guilds didn't have the funds to compete. They could only watch with frustration, unable to do anything. This was the difference between guilds.
At this moment, ScribeCharm in the front row was also very helpless. If he hadn't been tricked by RogueVortex, he might have already bought those two daggers and this Infernal Shadeblade, and other guilds would have had to step aside.
After a few minutes of competition, the price finally reached its peak.
24 gold 30 silver, which was really low for a top-tier level 20 Obsidian Weapon, let alone one that could be upgraded.
"This Infernal Shadeblade is mine." Seeing no one else competing, the Berserker from Supremacy Alliance cheered.
The other guild members could only show unwilling expressions. The auction was not about power but about who had the money.
Just as the auction hammer struck the second time, someone finally called out a bid, and it wasn't just one person.
"25 gold."
"26 gold."
"This sword has a great design, perfect for a collection. I'll bid 30 gold."
At this moment, a high noble from Shadowwing Citadel called out an astonishing price, leaving all the guilds dumbfounded.
"Why are NPCs competing too?"
This question puzzled everyone. If NPCs were competing with them, how could they win? It was an NPC, and a high noble from Shadowwing Citadel at that. How could players compete?
"Damn, this auction is clearly playing us, only letting us compete for non-rare items."
"If I had known, I would have bought those two Adamantite daggers."
"That guy is really lucky, getting those two daggers so cheaply."
Many players regretted it at this moment, not expecting the auction house to pull such a trick.
"31 gold."
At this moment, a familiar cold voice rang out, and everyone's eyes turned to the source of the it, each one shocked and showing disbelief.
Because the person who called out this price was Eric, who had previously spent 20 gold to buy two Adamantite daggers, and now he was bidding 31 gold.
"How much money does this guy have?" Everyone suspected that Eric had robbed an NPC noble; otherwise, how could he have so much money.
After Eric called out 31 gold, the high noble also called out 32 gold.
But Eric was not to be outdone and called out 33 gold.
The two sides went back and forth, with the price climbing higher and higher, leaving everyone stunned and speechless.
In the end, Eric bought the Infernal Shadeblade for 39 gold.
After a few more rounds of auctions, the prices were generally not very high, not worth mentioning compared to Eric's 39 gold purchase of the Infernal Shadeblade.
There was another rare item in the process, it was an Obsidian leather armor, but Eric was not interested in it, and it was eventually bought by an NPC for 32 gold.
As the auction drew to a close, the third rare item finally went up for auction.
It was also the finale item of this auction. The starting price of 30 gold alone made all the guilds give up because they already knew that to buy this item, it would take at least over 50 gold. Unless several top-tier guilds pooled their funds together, it was impossible to nail it. However, such a union was an impossible mission for many top-tier guilds.
Lending gold to other guilds at this time would be aiding the enemy. Even if everyone united, the final item could only go to one guild, and it couldn't be divided. So, the guilds wouldn't unite.
