Chapter 43 p2
The biggest difference between high-end players and mid-end players was not strength, but the information gap.
For example, Yu Chi had long had some speculations about special bloodlines and had even seen other species with her own eyes.
And more players, even if they knew that there were other species in the world, did not think that those bloodlines could be activated in their own bodies.
But now they suddenly realized that compared to leveling up step by step, this was the real counterattack!
“So yours is a Cinnabar Finch bloodline?”
Li Feng’s voice sounded in her ear. Yu Chi turned her head and found that the other party was calm, as if he was not affected by the [Werewolf Bloodline] at all.
“Something like that,” Yu Chi replied vaguely. “Don’t you want this bloodline?”
Can a person’s body tolerate four bloodlines? Yu Chi didn’t know. If she had the chance, she would like to try.
But now she should still be human.
Li Feng was very indifferent. “I’m not very interested. I prefer to be human.”
Yu Chi patted his shoulder and, under the other party’s baffled gaze, gave him a thumbs up.
This is a person who truly sticks to his heart.
Yu Chi admitted that if it were her, she would not be able to resist this temptation at all.
If she had not awakened the [Morph] skill, even if she had to go bankrupt, she would have bought this [Werewolf Bloodline].
She was very honest and knew that she was not a combat talent player like Li Feng, so she could only take shortcuts in other places. Just like most players, she would fight with all her might for this sliver of a chance.
“There was no bloodline for sale yesterday.”
Yu Chi saw the discussion in the world channel. Many players who had gone to the central island yesterday were regretting it, because although their auction had many rare items, it was still a bit worse than a special bloodline.
This showed that the things on the auction floor were very different every day. The disadvantage of a solo player was reflected here. If she had joined an alliance, she would have had fixed teammates online every day of the week, and she would not have missed many things.
The starting price of the [Werewolf Bloodline] was set at 100,000. Compared to its effect, this was a very low price.
Yu Chi suddenly felt that the system’s pricing was a bit cruel. It would have been better to set it higher directly.
This was a price that many mid-end players could afford if they gritted their teeth, but their hope of picking up a bargain would soon be shattered.
Yu Chi knew very well how rich the rich could be. 30 million Purification Crystals couldn’t even get on the top 1000 of the wealth ranking. Just from this, one could know their worth.
In Sea Survival, skills and bloodlines were two different systems. Even the top few players on the ranking, while having powerful skills, also hoped to have a very powerful bloodline.
They hadn’t dared to imagine it before, but now the path was laid out before them. No matter what, they would find all kinds of opportunities.
It didn’t matter if they didn’t buy the [Werewolf Bloodline]. With this as a precedent, they would frantically look for opportunities to obtain other bloodlines.
The bidding for this was terrifying.
Except for the first player who tremblingly bid up to 110,000, the others all went up by 100,000.
Yu Chi only felt that in the blink of an eye, the price of the [Werewolf Bloodline] had risen to a million.
“Are you really not interested?” Yu Chi turned her head to look at Li Feng. “If you don’t have enough money, I can help.”
Li Feng was on the path of becoming a god through his physical body. If he awakened the werewolf bloodline, it would definitely give him a great boost.
The man did not refuse outright, but thought for a few seconds before he said, “At least for now, I don’t need it.”
Yu Chi nodded and did not say anything else.
The bidding for the bloodline finally made the people in the Heaven-level private rooms speak.
“10 million.”
The voice came from the private room of Heaven 3. It was a clear and clean girl’s voice, with an inexplicable certainty.
“What does a woman want a werewolf bloodline for?” The private room of Heaven 2 also spoke. The man’s voice had a false disgust. “I bid 11 million.”
Yu Chi began to reflect on why she had no money. In fact, she was also the number one on the wealth ranking in District 1. How could she be so much worse than other players?
Then she suddenly realized that she had only made money in the first week of the natural disaster. For the rest of the time, she had been slacking off every day.
Yu Chi: …Oh, so I’m the lazy one.
“20 million,” the girl in the private room of Heaven 3 continued. She did not refute the man in the private room of Heaven 2, her tone still very calm.
“21 million. I’m determined to get this werewolf bloodline. Miss, you’d better not compete with me,” the man in the private room of Heaven 2 said.
Next was the competition between these two players. Yu Chi watched with great interest in her private room and turned to Li Feng, “Next time, I have to get some sunflowers. This is the perfect time to eat sunflower seeds.”
Li Feng’s eyes lit up upon hearing this. “I can eat 121 sunflower seeds in one go.”
Yu Chi: “…Be realistic, can you?”
“It’s true. I’ve tried it before,” Li Feng said seriously. “I should have improved now.”
His physical strength had greatly increased, so his speed of eating sunflower seeds must be unparalleled.
Yu Chi: “.”
As expected of a strong person. He’s terrifyingly strong even in this aspect.
The two of them chatted for a while. The price was finally set at the terrifying number of 80 million crystals, and it was bought by the girl in the private room of Heaven 3.
“Since you’re a woman, it’s not good for me to compete too much. I wonder if Miss is interested in getting to know me?”
In the private room of Heaven 2, the man held a cup of grape juice in his hand and smiled confidently, believing that the other party would definitely not refuse him, who was also in a Heaven-level private room.
After all, this completely represented strength and wealth.
What a terrible mouth, what a vicious language.
Yu Chi shook her head and sighed.
The air was silent for a few seconds. Everyone was waiting for the girl in the private room of Heaven 3 to answer.
However, the answer was no answer.
“…” So awkward, haha.
“Well, it seems we’re not fated after all,” the man added after a dozen seconds, but anyone could hear the ugliness in his tone.
Some players in the hall even secretly laughed, but there were too many people to find out who it was.
In the private room of Heaven 2.
The man directly smashed the cup on the ground. The people next to him were trembling. They knew how terrifying the man’s strength was.
He sneered. “She probably won’t dare to use it now. After the auction, check every woman who enters the black tower.”
“Isn’t that a bit of an overreaction?”
The man smiled. He raised his hand and touched the woman’s slightly trembling face, his tone gentle. “If you have an opinion, you can be the leader of this alliance. How about it?”
“…I don’t dare.”
The man patted her lightly. “Don’t disappoint me.”
Yu Chi seriously told Li Feng, “You can’t hit on people like that. It’s so cringey.”
If you lose, you lose. Why use a woman as an excuse… well, everyone knows it’s your way of saving face. It’s fine. But in the end, you still have a confident tone and want to get to know the other party—
How can there be someone who speaks and acts so awkwardly!
Li Feng pondered, “What’s hitting on someone?”
Yu Chi: “?”
Li Feng’s face was frank. “I didn’t go to school.”
How can a child who has no parents and hangs out on the streets all day go to school? When others were in school, he was fighting all day and all night.
Yu Chi: “It’s getting close to someone. For example, you fall in love with a girl at first sight and want to get to know her, so you find a random reason.”
“Oh,” Li Feng nodded without interest. “I won’t go and hit on anyone.”
He was answering Yu Chi’s previous question.
Yu Chi sized him up carefully. Li Feng lowered his head and took a bite of the cooked meat he had taken out of his backpack, saying casually, “What are you looking at?”
“Nothing,” Yu Chi finally shook her head.
She felt that Li Feng was just pretending. This guy definitely knew what hitting on someone meant, but she was too lazy to expose him.
Yu Chi subconsciously picked at her index finger and refocused her attention on the auction.
After the [Werewolf Bloodline] was auctioned off, the atmosphere did not continue to be tense and exciting. Instead, there was a blind box auction as an intermission.
Yu Chi became a little interested. The items in the blind box could range from common grade to legendary grade. You could pick up a bargain, or you could fall hard. She liked this kind of activity that relied entirely on luck.
The first blind box appeared in the center of the stage. There was no description, and the starting price was 1000 crystals.
“1001,” someone said.
Soon, laughter was heard. “What’s the point of adding one by one?”
The person was not ashamed and instead said, “As long as I get it.”
The price of the first blind box was increasing relatively slowly. There were a total of 10 blind boxes. The top players in the private rooms were not very interested in this. The players in the hall were more cautious in their bidding, and the atmosphere did not heat up.
“2000,” Yu Chi said directly.
At this rate of bidding, she felt that she could get this blind box for a few thousand.
“3000.”
Yu Chi looked. The person who was bidding with her was also from an Earth-level private room: “4000.”
“5000.”
Yu Chi: “6000.”
“7000!”
Yu Chi frowned: “8000.”
“9000!”
Yu Chi: “…”
She turned to look at Li Feng. “Do you think that person is determined to get this blind box, or is he targeting me?”
“Targeting,” Li Feng said without hesitation. “It’s the man from the land transaction.”
Yu Chi narrowed her eyes and instantly recalled. It was the guy with the sharp voice and gloomy face.
Li Feng: “Are you still going to bid?”
Yu Chi took a deep breath. “Let’s forget about this one for now.”
Although she felt that there might be something good in this blind box… the next few blind boxes gave her a better feeling.
Li Feng was very calm: “We’ll just snatch it from him later.”
In the private room of Earth 12.
Seeing that the private room he was paying attention to was no longer bidding, the man sneered and said to his subordinate next to him, “He probably spent all his money on buying land.”
He had checked the size of the land the other party had bought. It was only 20 square meters. What could you do with such a small size? He was certain that the other party was definitely not a player on the ranking.
“After the auction, lure the two of them to the outer island,” the man directly ordered. “As long as they’re dead, the land will naturally become masterless.”
“Understood.”
The man’s lips curled up. Although it was to deliberately disgust the other party, part of the reason was that he felt there might be something good in this blind box.
After all, his luck had always been good.
The time jumped to 9 seconds. Just as he thought the blind box was in his hands, the man in the private room of Heaven 9 spoke.
“10,000,” a very gentle voice.
The man frowned and hesitated for a moment. Just as he was about to continue bidding.
The next second, the person in the private room of Heaven 1 also spoke.
“20,000… big brother from private room 9, let me have it.”
It was a very clear and youthful voice, with a slightly sticky tone, but it did not sound out of place at all.
The man looked up at the Heaven-level private room, thinking about whether to give up. He didn’t want to offend the people in the Heaven-level private room.
And, the things in this blind box should not exceed 20,000, otherwise the pricing would not be so low.
Although he thought so, his expression was still a little unwilling.
“There are still 9 blind boxes. There’s no rush,” the person next to him persuaded.
The man understood this, but he still felt a sense of frustration in his heart. This thing was already in his pocket.
It definitely won’t be anything good, he gritted his teeth.
The discussion in the hall grew louder. Because the pricing of the blind box was too low, and this was just an intermission auction, they had originally thought that only ordinary players would compete.
They hadn’t expected that the players in the Earth-level private rooms would also start bidding, and it was a one-on-one competition. They were watching with great interest… and now even the Heaven-level private rooms had started?
Could it be that the top players were all very optimistic about the blind boxes? Some people were thoughtful.
…
Yu Chi was doubting life.
Li Feng glanced at her: “What?”
Yu Chi: …Hard to say.
It was really hard to say, and it even made her feel a little absurd—
Her dad and her ex-boyfriend are fighting?
No, it’s her brother who’s bidding, so her brother and her ex-boyfriend are fighting?
Yu Chi snatched a piece of meat from Li Feng’s hand and took a bite calmly.
Good, things are getting interesting.
