Chapter 134 Buying Frenzy



The following auction items were somewhat boring, causing his children to return to their meals.

"The next item is a piece of Abyss Stone," Venice said, taking out a tightly sealed stone containing intense dark energy.

"Abyss Stone?!"

"Is this still on the auction block?"

"What is Abyss Stone?"

Most people here are Tier 8 powerhouses that lived for hundreds of millions of years.

So they still know the significance of the Abyss.

It was some type of plane, similar to the Etherium Realm that was encroaching upon them.

"Abyss Stone is a stone that can be found in the Abyss."

"Abyss Stone is mainly used to assist in refining your will."

"Moreover, Abyss Stone also has many research purposes," Venice explained.

"Amazing, Abyss Stone still has this use."

"It should be the abyssal energy that can refine the will."

"I must get this!"

"Unfortunately, it's only the size of a fist."

"It's barely enough..."

The people below murmured excitedly.

You know the Celestial Ascent Path that can temper the will can only work until Tier 7.

After you pass Tier 7 and reach Tier 8, you will be on your own.

"I wonder how much this will be sold for," Maximus thought.

This Abyss Stone is what he had consigned.

These Abyss Stones are Tier 8 materials that can only be found in the Abyss.

He read that because Etherium Ralm and Abyss are quite close to each other.

Some materials, sometimes pass through and land on the Curse Continent.

Of course, he bought the Abyss Stone in the system mall, which cost a billion low-magic crystals per fist-sized stone.

"The first bid is 1 million high-grade crystals," Venice said.

Normally, Tier 8 materials only cost about 10 to 100 thousand high-grade crystals.

But as Abyss Stone is a rare material that can be used to refine the will, it shot up in value.

Almost catching up to a normal Tier 8 treasure with just the initial bid.

"1.1 million!"

"1.5 million."

"1.8 million."

"2 million."

"Is that the thing you've been telling us about, husband?" Erica asked, noticing Maximus smiling each time the price rose.

"Yes, I found this when I was traveling through the Curse Continent a few years ago."

"Wow, where did you find this, Daddy? Can we find more?" Lyla asked.

"No more, I was lucky to even find this."

"Oh, pity..." Lyla said with melancholy.

She would like her father to have more money to afford more clothes and food for them.

"Don't worry, after you grow up, you can also find treasures on your own," Maximus patted her head and said.

"Really?!"

"Yes, yes, Lyla will become the most powerful treasure hunter."

"Then Lyla will be able to take care of me by then," Maximus smiled.

Maximus didn't notice, but Lyla had grown to 5 years old, and now she looked like a ten-year-old kid.

Time really passes; a few years ago, they were still babies that he could easily carry.

Now they've grown up so fast, that he was quite reluctant.

"I will definitely take care of Daddy!" Lyla said seriously as she hugged him.

"Hmm,"

Fortunately, they didn't change much, and they are still his lovely little padded jacket.

While they were talking, the Abyss Stone reached 30.3 million.

"30.4 million!"

"30.5 million."

"30.8 million."

"35 million!" one of the VIP no. 235 finally bid.

"Oh, all the good things are snapped up by the VIPs."

"Sigh, it's really nice to have money."

The people below had already given up.

As soon as one of the VIPs spoke, it was already a sure thing.

"40 million," another VIP, no. 823, bid.

"45 million," VIP no. 235.

"50 million," VIP no. 823.

"60 million!" VIP no. 235.

"It's yours," VIP no. 823 gave up.

For these VIPs, the function of strengthening their will was not as important, as they had many resources for it.

However, the research value was somewhat crucial to them.

After all, who knows when the Abyss will finally land in the Etherium Realm?

Nevertheless, the Abyss Stone is only a Tier 8 material, so bidding more is not worth it.

"Is there no one else to bid?"

"Going once..."

"Going twice..."

"Sold to VIP no. 235."

"60 million..." Maximus muttered excitedly.

That was equivalent to 60 billion when he used his 99.9% discount.

This discount was really a bug; it was literally giving core students unlimited money.

"Daddy, it's only 60 million... It's not enough to buy clothes," Lyla sighed.

"Uh," Maximus was stumped by Lyla's words.n0velusB.C0m

"It's already a lot, sister," Lily said to Lyla.

"Really? But it's only 60 million, and our clothes cost 30 million."

60 million is really not enough for the extravagance of Maximus' children and wives.

"Dad has a big discount, so 60 million is already worth 60 billion."

"What?! That's a thousand times!" Lyla lit up, looking at Maximus.

"Hmm, Dad is a rich man," Lily's eyes nodded.

"Daddy, will you buy me other things later? Please~" Lyla said coquettishly.

"What do you want?" Maximus smiled.

For him, money is just a number that he can make whenever he needs it.

So, his spending with his family is without any stinginess.

Who knows if some pig will attract his wives or children with money?

Once they know that his wives and children are bottomless pits, they would probably run faster than he could find them.

"I don't know. I'll watch the auction and tell you later."

"Alright, just tell me," Maximus smiled.

Soon, the auction kept going.

With his permission, his children and his wives became more focused, looking at all the interesting things at the auction.

After they found what they liked, they approached him like lovely angels.

"Dad, I like this one. Can you buy it for me?" Lily said, pinching his back.

"Hmm, just bid for it yourself."

"Husband~ look at that. It should be useful when I cook," Erica said, looking at the Tier 8 Knife growth treasure.

"Buy."

"Husband~ we want that Melodic Battle Dancer set," Luna said, pinching his arm.

"Yes, husband, h-how about we show you how we use it later," Livia followed, looking at Maximus shyly.

"Buy."

"Husband~ that ruler seems interesting. I just need it to teach our children," Hazel said.

Hazel had been following the path of a teacher, so the Tier 8 Ruler growth treasure with various functions was just right.

"Buy."

"Dad! That robot collection of Mr. Minsky, Luke, and I have been looking for that thing," Sam said straightforwardly.

"Yes, I've been dreaming about that thing," Luke said, his attention fixed on the robot collection.

"Buy." Sons were really not a thing, they didn't even coax him.

Fortunately, he was a loving father.

"Husband~ did you say you wanted some personalized clothes?" Angeline asked, looking at him knowingly.

Maximus understood, glancing at the weaving alchemist set in the auction.

"Buy."

"That sword is good, husband~ How about my gift?" Isabella asked as she tugged his clothes.

"Buy."

"Husband~" Irene was more straightforward, giving him a peck without saying anything.

Seeing that it was a herbalist set, he knew that Irene wanted it.

"Buy."

"Husband, I'll agree to any position you want," Rose said, looking at the domineering armor and weapon set.

"Buy." Maximus got excited all of a sudden.

"Daddy, look! It's a food printer. I can eat whatever I want!" Lyla jumped to him excitedly.

The food printer in the auction was a Tier 8 true alchemy treasure that could create food out of thin air.

"Buy."

"Dad! I also want the food printer!" Max shouted.

"But there's only one."

"Hehe, this one is mine," Lyla said proudly.

"Oh..." Max sighed.

"You can look later; maybe there are other things that you fancy," Maximus said.

"Hmm." Max sat down, looking intently at the next auction item so as not to be preempted by them.

"Dad, can you buy me that?" Nathan asked him silently.

Nathan had grown into a silent man, always looking serious.

So Maximus didn't think much about what Nathan was going to buy and let him bid for himself.

"Daddy~ can this baby also buy things?" Serene said to him sweetly.

"Yes, of course, anything that my baby wants."

"Hehe, then I want that flower, Daddy," Serene said, looking at the cute flower pet.

It seemed that his other children still didn't have any pets.

"Sure."

"Hmm, mwah," Serene smiled happily and kissed him.

"Daddy, can you buy me that pitiful wolf?" Crya asked.

Looking at the wolf that resembled a noble Fenrir, scaled down and very cute.

"Hmm, buy."

"Huh? Dad, buy me that thing!" Neo, who was still in a daze, suddenly became energetic.

"What is that?" Maximus thought as he looked at the auction.

What Maximus saw was a ball of white fur, sleeping lazily regardless of all the commotion happening around it.

"Why do you want that?"

"Oh, it seems comfortable to sleep through," Neo also didn't know; he just felt connected to it for some reason.

"Alright, buy," Maximus said, shaking his head.

Lazy son plus a lazy pet; he didn't know what would happen to Neo in the future.

"Father, I want that thing," Liam whispered, blushing.

"But that's for girls?" Maximus looked at Liam puzzled.

The thing that Liam wanted was a beautiful necklace suitable for a girl.

"Uh," Liam didn't dare to say anything.

Liam knew that once his father got the teleportation quota, he could go back to the Curse Continent whenever he wanted.

More importantly, he could meet Amara.

He thought of buying her some gifts after not meeting each other for almost a year.

"Oh, then buy" Maximus nodded knowingly, seeing Liam blushing.

His son had truly grown up, knowing a bit of his style.

Soon, the auction continued as his wives and children bought whatever they fancied.
