The auction lasted for a total of seven days, and Gu Ding and his crew spent six days preparing for the auction.

During these six days, Gu Ding wore the mech all the time except when he slept. After six days of training, his compatibility with the mech had reached a high level. Other than the use of martial arts techniques, he was even able to control the right amount of strength when it came to washing dishes.

Lilliath's hat-like Spirit Amplification Device could increase her Spirit Amplification by two hundred times. Over the past few days, she had been slowly adapting to controlling such a large increase in spirit power. She tried her best to use every bit of her strength in the right place. She was improving every day.

Biggie, on the other hand, spent all his time studying swordsmanship. He had learned a lot about swordsmanship from Darkness. Other than the time he spent cooking every day, he spent the rest of his time studying swordsmanship and improving his combat effectiveness.

Gu Ding did not go to the auction on the last day. He had informed them in advance and asked them to transfer the final amount of the auction directly to his account. He also did not get to see how much of a sensation the finale item, the Witch Tribe staff, had caused and how intense and crazy the bidding was.

All he knew was that after the staff was auctioned off, his account had an additional 12.8 billion Universe Credits. This amount was after deducting the auction venue's handling fee.

"It's incredible that this staff could be auctioned off at such a price in Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation." Neptune was slightly surprised when he saw the amount.

Less than two minutes after the money was transferred to his account, Gu Ding's communicator rang. Gu Ding had already recorded the other party's number. It was from the auction.

Gu Ding picked up the call. The voice on the other end sounded familiar to him. "Young man, do you still remember me, the appraiser?"

An image of the little old appraiser appeared in Gu Ding's mind. "It's you, old man. What's up?"

"Look at what you're saying. Can't I catch up with you for no reason?"

Gu Ding chose to remain silent in response to the old man's words. He was not in the mood to chat with anyone.

"Alright, I'll get straight to the point. Have you heard of the Holy Gospel Tribe?" The little old man was a little bored when he did not get a reply from Gu Ding.

"I've heard of it. This race seems to be a special race left behind from the Middle Ages. They can predict the future." Gu Ding did not quite understand why the other party was asking this.

"It's not that simple. Foreseeing the future is just one of the abilities of this race. They will also develop other abilities and become extremely powerful, "Neptune added in Gu Ding's ear.

"Since you already know, it saves me a lot of time to explain. What I'm about to tell you is related to the Holy Gospel Tribe. " The little old man paused. "Most of the items you obtained from the Wizard Tribe were bought by them, including the staff that was just auctioned off today."

"Those guys really want to meet the seller of the magic staff. Of course, due to professional ethics, I did not reveal any information about you to them. I only told them that I would help them communicate. Whether you want to meet or not, the decision is up to you. If you don't want to, I'll reject it for you. With the habits of their race, they probably won't continue to pester us. "

Gu Ding was just about to say 'not interested' when he heard Neptune's voice in his ear. "Gu Ding, agree to meet."

"Alright!" Although Gu Ding was not in the mood to meet the Holy Gospel Tribe, he still agreed to meet them after hearing Neptune's words.

"5: 50 p.m., south gate of the auction. I'll look for you," the little old man said and hung up.

"Why do you want me to agree to meet the Holy Gospel Tribe? It's bad enough that a fortune-teller's prophecy is predicting the outcome. I don't want to hear any more bad news. "Gu Ding really did not want to deal with these so-called fortune-tellers and prophets.

"Mi En's divination might not be accurate about Lili. The meaning of the image on the card is still a little unclear. I think it's better to take this opportunity to ask a Holy Gospel Master. "

In the afternoon, when it was almost the appointed time, Gu Ding exited the mech and rushed to the auction site.

He looked down at the time. There were still a few minutes left before the time given by the little old man. Gu Ding's gaze swept across his surroundings and suddenly saw a familiar figure.

It was the man who had sold the ax earlier. He had set up his stall casually on the ground not far from the auction site.

"Neptune, do we still want the ax?" Gu Ding asked.

"Yes!" Neptune had also noticed the man not far away.

Gu Ding walked toward his stall. "Uncle, the auction is over, but you still haven't sold your ax. Why did you set up your stall here? "

"They charge a stall fee every day in the tower. I ran out of money, so they chased me out. "The man was still sitting cross-legged on the ground. He did not think that Gu Ding would buy his ax.

"What price are you going to offer this time?" Gu Ding thought that the man would probably lower his price. After so many days, the man should know that his price was not reliable.

"Ten billion Universe Credits! No bargaining! "The man raised his eyelids and looked at Gu Ding. He did not think that Gu Ding could afford it.

"Can't you make it cheaper?" Gu Ding was stunned when he heard the offer for the second time. He thought that the man would change his mind after so many days.

"It's not cheap!" The man shook his head. "I originally planned to sell it cheaper on the last day, but after watching the last auction today, I realized that if something is really valuable, there will always be someone who knows what it is and will be willing to offer the right price."

"Buy it, it's not a loss." Neptune urged Gu Ding.

"Alright! Ten billion it is. Give me your account number. "Gu Ding finally agreed.

"It's Universe Credits, not Star Credits!" After the man gave Gu Ding his account number, he emphasized again.

After Neptune arranged the transfer, a huge sum of money appeared in the man's account in less than ten seconds. He carefully counted the digits of the numbers several times and checked the currency units several times. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he handed the ax over to Gu Ding.

The first thing Gu Ding did when he received the ax was throw it into his Inventory. He saw the old appraiser walking toward him from afar.

When he was in front of Gu Ding, the little old man stopped in his tracks. "Follow me!"

Gu Ding followed behind him. After passing through several alleys, the little old man stopped in his tracks and pointed at a tower-like building not far away. "In that building, thirty-third floor, Room 3301."

"Aren't you coming with me?" Gu Ding shouted when he saw the little old man turning to leave.

"No, they want to see you." The little old man did not look back and quickly disappeared into the alley.
