Chapter 348

In this era, there were indeed a lot of deficiencies in the craft of forging.

Therefore, the higher the grade of a god item, the more serious the flaws in forging it would reveal.

At this stage, the forging of a 5-star god item was mostly done by piling up high-quality materials. Whether one could successfully forge it depended on luck. In fact, if the final product was placed in Modern Times, it would only be a crudely crafted pseudo-5-star god item.

The 5-star god item that Gu Ding had redeemed from the Orr ruins was a real 5-star god item, and its quality was not bad. Its defensive power was at least twice as strong as the 5-star god item armor refined by contemporary blacksmiths.

The starting price of seventy million Source Stones was not expensive at all. In the Cosmic Sea, any 5-star god item would have a starting price of more than fifty million Source Stones. This was an authentic five-star divine artifact that had been passed down from ancient times. Even if the starting price was doubled, no one would have any complaints.

Before the auctioneer's voice died away, the bidding for the god item had already begun.

In the VIP area, three boxes bid at almost the same time.

"Eighty million!"

"Eighty-five million!"

"Eighty-eight million!"

Immediately after, the fourth box also bid. "One hundred million Source Stones!"

After all, this was a Source Stone, not a Universe Crystal. One Source Stone was equivalent to ten thousand Universe Crystals. One hundred million Source Stones was one trillion Universe Crystals!

The price of the armor soared from the starting price of seventy million Source Stones to one hundred million Source Stones. The whole process took less than ten seconds. The auctioneer did not even have a chance to interject before the bidding in the VIP area became a hot mess.

"One hundred and ten million!" The bid of one hundred million only lasted for less than two seconds before it was overtaken by a new bid. The person who made the bid was Granny Jian from box number seven.

She had only passed by Faye Cosmic Nation and heard that there was an auction for a 5-star god item. She had only come to take a look and had no intention of snatching it. However, he did not expect to discover that the quality of the armor was beyond his imagination after examining it. There were no existing blacksmiths who could forge an armor of this level, so her interest was completely piqued.

"That old witch has indeed made a bid. I wonder if she's prepared enough this time." In private room number four, the middle-aged man frowned slightly. He was the one who had called out a hundred million Origin Stones.

"120 million!" Room 12 raised the bid again.

"130 million!" Room 1 was not to be outdone.

Two consecutive rounds of bids were made by four Supreme Deities, and the price soared from 70,000,000 to 130,000,000 origin stones. It almost doubled, and it took them less than a minute to do so.

Gu Ding raised his eyebrows. This price was already higher than the total price of all the other items he had auctioned off so far.

However, the price was still rising.

"150 million!" This time, it was booth number three who bid.

Gu Ding had noticed this private room before. Although the person in the private room was not a supreme deity, the strength of his aura was as steady as a mountain. He was probably one of the best among the higher deities.

Gu Ding could not see the person's face, let alone know the identity of the other party. He could only judge the other party's strength by their aura.

However, Neptune could clearly see the people in each room. He knew that the person in booth number three was Gatins's immediate superior, General Ogyust of the Federal Government. Among the higher deities, Ogyust was also an outstanding figure with outstanding strength. Those who were appointed as the manager of the Great Realm River had to be strictly screened for their strength.

The four supreme deities were slightly surprised when they heard the bid from booth number three.

However, when they saw Ogyust's military uniform and the military rank insignia on his shoulder, they realized that he was the guardian of the nearby Great Realm River.

"200 million!" The burly powerhouse in booth number one had always been impatient when it came to bidding. After two rounds, not a single bidder was eliminated, so he immediately raised the bid to a new level.

"250 million!" Granny Jian also noticed the problem and increased the bid by another 50 million.

"280 million!" The price made the middle-aged man in booth number four feel the pinch.

"300 million!" The powerhouse in booth number twelve increased the bid again. This price was almost at the limit of what everyone could afford.

Gu Ding was naturally happy to watch them fight like this. The higher the price, the more he would earn. Anyway, his own cost was only 5 billion merit points, which was equivalent to 50 million in Source Stones. Now, in less than five minutes, the price had increased sixfold. Gu Ding was quite satisfied with this. Of course, Gu Ding also knew that this price was almost at its limit. No matter how rich these people were, it was unlikely that they would increase the price by a large margin.

After booth number twelve placed the bid of 300 million, there was a moment of silence. A staff member first went on stage and whispered into the auctioneer's ear.

Only then did the auctioneer speak. "Due to the huge amount of money involved in the last item, many bidders have expressed that they did not bring enough Source Stones and Universe Crystals with them. Therefore, they hope to discuss with the seller to replace some of the Source Stones with other items. Therefore, the last auction can only be paused for a while and wait for the final result of our communication with the seller. "

The staff member from before walked in Gu Ding's direction, leaned down, and whispered in his ear.

"Mr. Gu Ding, do you agree to let them replace some of the Source Stones with other items?"

"As long as the item is suitable. What can they offer?" Gu Ding nodded and asked.

"The bidder in booth number one has offered the tinder of Star Fire. We estimate the value of the tinder to be 50 million Source Stones.

"The bidder in booth number four has offered a set of four-star divine power, which is worth about 20 million Source Stones.

"The bidder in booth number seven has offered a bottle of five-star god-level nectar, which is worth about 40 million Source Stones.

"There's also the bidder in box 12. He provided a Divine Weapon Pavilion's token. He said that with this token, you can ask anyone in Divine Weapon Pavilion to do one thing for you. We have no way of estimating its value. "

"Can they kill someone?" Gu Ding raised his eyebrows.

"They can kill someone, but the highest they can kill is an ultimate deity powerhouse who has not broken through the God Spirit barrier. However, if the target has broken through the God Spirit barrier, we can't do anything about it. Powerhouses of that level are the treasures of mankind, and killing them will affect the fate of the entire human race. " The powerhouse in booth number twelve had obviously heard Gu Ding's question and transmitted his voice to Gu Ding.

"Alright, I'll choose booth number twelve!" Gu Ding immediately made a decision. In fact, if the flame provided by booth number one was a five-star god-level flame that Gu Ding did not have, Gu Ding would definitely choose booth number one.

Gu Ding's conversation with the staff was not concealed from the others present, and many people knew that the person who had sent the five-star god item was really Gu Ding. Initially, everyone was just guessing, but now it was completely confirmed.

After getting a positive answer from Gu Ding, the auctioneer finally announced the final results of the auction.

"The last item of this auction, a five-star god-level armor, was won by the senior in booth number twelve in the VIP area for 300 million Source Stones and a Divine Weapon Pavilion Divine Weapon Golden Badge.

"This auction has come to an end. For buyers who did not collect their auction items or sellers who did not collect their auction fees, please try to complete the procedures within ten days. This is because our relevant staff will be leaving the Ouer Territory after ten days, and delaying the procedures will cause inconvenience to our schedule. I hope everyone can understand.

"Although our ten-day auction has ended, the follow-up smaller auctions, as well as the display of the stalls outside, will continue for nearly a month. For those who want to treasure, please continue to keep an eye out. There are also many tourist attractions in the Ouer Territory, and you can visit them when you have time. Of course, we welcome everyone to visit Faye Cosmic Nation as guests in the future. Finally, I wish everyone a good time! "

Most of the people in the venue left immediately, and some went backstage to complete the handover. However, there were also a few people like Gu Ding and the others who waited where they were. Gu Ding wanted to wait until there were fewer people before he went to complete the handover of Source Stones.

Just as they were sitting and chatting, Y'lisabet came down from the VIP area upstairs and walked straight toward Gu Ding's crew.

"Gu Ding, long time no see," Y'lisabet greeted him lightly.

"Yeah, it's been a few months." Gu Ding nodded and smiled.

"Junior Sister, we should go!" The young man beside Granny Jian shouted at Y'lisabet from afar.

"I'll be right there!" Y'lisabet nodded.

"Junior Sister?" Gu Ding was slightly surprised.

"Granny Jian has accepted me as an apprentice. This time, we're going to the Federal Government Headquarters to greet them and ask them to arrange for a successor to the Lord of the Nation, and then arrange for two stronger guardians. This way, Faye Cosmic Nation will be foolproof. I don't have to be a guardian, and I don't have to go to the Outland Battlefield. "Y'lisabet smiled.

"You're finally free." Gu Ding knew that this was a good outcome for Y'lisabet.

"I'm free, but it's dangerous for you to have your Wealth completely exposed this time. As far as I know, many powerhouses in the Grand Border River have their eyes on you. "Y'lisabet told Gu Ding the news she had received.

"It doesn't matter. Those who attack us will regret it," Gu Ding said confidently.

Y'lisabet wanted to say something else, but the young man kept urging her. She had no choice but to give up and leave after saying goodbye.

"Come on, let's go collect the Source Stones!" Gu Ding saw that most of the people in the venue had left, so he waved his hand.
