Chapter 272: The auction last part

The quiet mood left Aruna and Maev a little apprehensive, they were feeling like they were in the middle of a forest with ferocious beasts and the trio were the prey.

"Does anyone give more?" Talbot saw that no one else spoke of an offer so he asked before starting the count.

"I offer six hundred and four crystals from the mine" Another person offered.

As Liu Yang had offered something worth around 574 crystals from the mine, he had to increase the value a bit according to the rules. So he offered six hundred and four crystals. Thirty crystals above the value offered by Liu Yang.

This bid was not to buy the device itself, but it is to see if Liu Yang will offer a higher bid or not. The nobles were curious as to whether he had more crystals or not.

The nobles thought of doing that, but hardly anyone had that courage. If Liu Yang had no more crystals, the person who offered them would have to buy the barrier device. Someone needs to make a small sacrifice for something bigger.

The person who agreed to do this made a higher bid.

"Does anyone give more?" Talbot overheard the conversation of everyone in the room, at least the conversations of ordinary chairs. He knew that Liu Yang would only make a single bid and the other customers were just waiting for him.

Since no one would bid more, he asked again before the count.

"Going once… Going twice… Sold to the esteemed customer sitting on chair number XXX. We thank the valued customer for the purchase" Talbot announced the winner.

The young woman carried the tray with the barrier device to the winner of the auction.

The person took the item and placed a bag with the crystals inside, his face was full of pain when he did this. He did not want to buy the barrier device, but the tacit agreement with the other nobles forced him to do so.

(As that young man did not bid anymore, he must have at most four hundred crystals from the mine and four thousand creature crystals) That was the thought of everyone at the place.

This amount was not small and some nobles felt greedy. They will try to steal and kill Liu Yang.

The problem is that he is an extremely dangerous person. The aura that everyone felt before made some of them uneasy.

(If I am going to steal him, I need to make sure he will die. Otherwise, it will be very dangerous) They had that same thought.

…

The auction continued normally.

The next items were purchased by three noblewomen from powerful families. They were in the VIP rooms waiting for these items.

The crystal carriage was bought by Pargi, the trio knew it was him because of the voice inside the VIP room. The value of the carriage went beyond the trio's expectations, as it was much more expensive than they thought.

Pargi paid 1,800 crystals from the mine to buy the carriage. That amount is insane.

The trio never thought the carriage was so expensive. But they soon understood that the carriage is worth all this because it is the last item in the auction before the final three items.

Aruna and Maev were a little discouraged because they were unable to buy the items they needed. Maev was more fortunate because she can buy the barrier device at city stores for a good price.

The problem was Aruna. The carriage she needs to buy cost a great fortune and the trio didn't have enough crystals to pay. The only way to do that is to go to the Neutral Zone.

…

"Ladies and gentlemen, the last part of the auction will begin. As usual, the items in the last part are always an equivalent exchange. It doesn't matter if they are crystals or rare items. Whoever offers the best bid will receive the item." Talbot explained.

All the slave auctions that Liu Yang visited before were the same thing, the last slaves sold were always exchanged for an item that was not money.

In the case of mine auctions, the crystals mined at the mine are also worth a lot depending on the quantity.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the last items will not disappoint any of you. We will have a five-minute break before we start again" Talbot announced.

The lights were turned off and on again. The auditorium was completely lit.

"Garett, are we leaving? Or are we going to continue? " Aruna no longer wanted to

stay in place. She was unable to buy the item she wanted. Maev feels the same way.

"We will be staying a little longer. I'm curious about the last three secret items at the auction." Liu Yang was in no hurry to return to the hotel. He knows that there will be great difficulties by then.

"Garett, are we being targeted?" Maev asked in a low voice.

"Yes. Some idiots want to rob us after seeing that we have a lot of crystals. This is normal" Liu Yang replied.

His words only confirmed the thoughts of the two women.

"You don't have to worry about that. The only thing you need to do is put on armor to completely protect your bodies. I'll take care of the rest" Liu Yang spoke confidently.

"..." The two women do not comment on his confident words. They just need to follow what he said.

"Garett, should we wear our armor now? Or when are we leaving? "

"You can use it before we leave here. But try to look less visible. Do you have any kind of armor that can be worn under your clothes? This will be better." Liu Yang has seen this type of equipment before. But it was quite expensive.

"Not. I don't have enough money to buy something like that" Aruna was leaving the Bartek family, so she didn't have the money to buy expensive things.

Maev was from a noble family, but it was small and had little influence. So she would have no chance of having that type of item.

"I see ... When the auction starts up again, I'll give you two some to use." Liu Yang had some powerful protective items, but it was only level 50.

The items were forged by Cilia's maids.

"Garett, thank you ..." The two women were surprised to hear that. They didn't think that Liu Yang had such items.

(Garett, you are so mysterious ...) They thought at the same time.

The mysteries surrounding Liu Yang make them increasingly curious about him.

Some minutes later…

The lights were turned off and on in the center of the stage again.

Old Talbot appeared with three beautiful young women. Each was holding an object, two trays and a chain.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for the delay. The last part of the auction will begin. Without further ado, this is our first item in the final part. "Talbot nodded to the first young woman.

She walked to his side and took off the golden cloth.
