Chapter 129: Last Auction ( Part 2 )

After this item was sold, the crowd fell into a hush as the auctioneer continued with her task. With a flourish, she unveiled a pedestal upon which rested a stone glowing with an inner light, its surface etched with unknown runes and everyone knew about this stone already.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what we have here is not just a normal Recruitment Stone that you have seen before...." She began, her voice imbued with a sense of excitement.

"This is the Epic Recruitment Stone, a relic capable of calling forth individuals of exceptional skill and valor to your side."

[ Epic Recruitment Stone: A mystical stone that resonates with the potential of those who wield it. It can summon warriors, strategists, and leaders of commerce alike, each ready to pledge their service to your cause. It guarantees a Summon with amazing talent!

Note: This item cannot be upgraded. ]

The crowd murmured, eyes wide, at the possibilities such a stone presented.

"The bidding price will start at 500 Points!"

Bids began tentatively, as if the Survivors were still grappling with the stone's potential.

[ Bidder 1253 bids 505 Points. ]

[ Bidder 2001 bids 550 Points. ]

[ Bidder 1992 bids 600 Points. ]

...

[ Bidder 1192 bids 1950 Points. ]

[ Bidder 1253 bids 2010 Points. ]

The numbers climbed steadily, each bid proof that everyone wanted to have a companion!

Finally, with a decisive bid that silenced everyone in the hall, the stone was sold for 3,500 Points to Bidder 1,101!

This time, the crowd no longer had energy to be amazed and they could only blame their terrible luck of not being able to get better Survivor Talent or a better location where they could gather Points.

But the auctioneer was not done yet. She signaled to her assistants, who brought forth a pedestal bearing a stone that pulsed with a light! It was completely different from all the other Recruitment Stones they've seen.

[ Bidder 1107 bids 2,450 Points. ]

[ Bidder 1119 bids 2,850 Points. ]

[ Bidder 1104 bids 3,350 Points. ]

...

[ Bidder 1102 bids 4,150 Points. ]

[ Bidder 1115 bids 5,010 Points. ]

It turns out that there were still plenty of Survivors with over 3,000 Points!

Well, this was also Shane's fault as he purchased the items they had also targeted, allowing them to save a lot of Points!

The bids surged like the tide as everyone wanted to obtain it.

However, it didn't take long before only three Survivors started bidding.

Shane, caught in the moment, found himself raising his own BidLink Communicator, his finger hovering over the bid button.

[ Bidder 1101 bits 7,500 Points. ]

A collective sigh was heard after this bid came.

The hall fell silent as the auctioneer called once, twice, and then for the final time.

The gavel fell, and the Hero Recruitment Stone was sold to Shane for 7,500 Points. A cheer rose from the crowd, a collective acknowledgment of the game-changing acquisition Shane had made.

The auctioneer smiled, her eyes reflecting the grandeur of the sale.

"Congratulations, Bidder 1101! You've secured a legend this day. May your hero lead you to a future bright with promise."

After winning this bid, Shane finally decided to leave the Grand Auction Hall...
