Chapter 1045: Is This Rare Enough?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Before waiting for Wang Yu and Fearless to speak, Old Nine continued, “Misters, while our auction business is not that large, the people here are pretty knowledgeable and experienced. It is true that these items are rare but given the level of standard here, they are pretty ordinary so you might not fetch a price as high as you imagine.”
Fearless was not all too surprised with Old Nine’s words because a live auction was where the richest players in the game gathered. Naturally, they were not going to go crazy over something slightly rare.
These rare materials, Obsidian equipment and rare skills were all considered ordinary goods in this place. It was even rumoured that a rich kid even bought a God-grade equipment from here not too long ago.
Even though it was not a complete version of the God equipment, it was enough to prove that Old Nine wasn’t a person who hadn’t seen rare items.
“Haha!” Fearless laughed after hearing Old Nine’s words, “Our Quan Zhen Sect have heard of the reputable name of your auction. Of course, we will not be bringing some rubbish here and pretend that they are treasures. These are just the appetisers.”
Fearless glanced over at Wang Yu after saying that.
Wang Yu casually took out a Dragon Egg.
“Si... This... A pet’s egg?” Old Nine was indeed a professional to be able to tell what was in Wang Yu’s hands almost immediately.
As compared to dragon scales or flesh, the value of this pet’s egg was several folds more. After spotting this pet’s egg, Old Nine’s eyes were glued to it.
“En!” Wang Yu nodded before displaying the pet’s egg attributes.
“Bang...”
After seeing the attributes of the egg, Old Nine fell to the ground on his butt.
Moments later, Old Nine pointed at the egg in Wang Yu’s hand in shock, “Dragon Egg!!!”
“It’s the Black Dragon Egg,” Wang Yu corrected.
Black Dragon was considered a top tier dragon who shouldn’t be compared on the same level as the other dragons.
“How? Is this item rare enough?” Looking at how Old Nine’s expression changed so drastically, Fearless walked over and asked.
Old Nine repeated, “Enough... enough! Definitely enough! More than enough!”
In this current stage, a plaything like the pet’s egg was considered to be exceedingly rare. Without talking about the attributes of these eggs, just the rarity of such pet’s egg could even surpass Legendary-grade equipment.
Wealthy bosses were different from ordinary players in the sense that they didn’t really care about the attributes when purchasing items in the game. Regardless of how impressive a player was, his attributes would usually not be comparable to an RMB player.
‘I have what others have and also what others don’t’ is how these wealthy players view themselves.
Therefore, items as rare as this pet’s egg were definitely their favourites.
Dragons had always been a supreme creature and no matter which game it was, a dragon egg was always going to be of an extremely rare existence. This was especially true for the top-tier Black Dragon Egg.
One must know that not too long ago, the egg of a shadow falcon was sold for an astronomical price. Old Nine did not dare to imagine what kind of reaction this Black Dragon Egg will incite.
As to what kind of job requirement the egg had, Old Nine did not care about it at all... Dragon Knight was not some kind of rare job and while the attributes were rubbish, Old Nine had one massive customer who chose this job.
Even in jobs with rubbish attributes, the use of RMB will certainly boost them to a level of invincibility. Wealthy players loved being able to act in such an unexpected manner.
And this customer of Old Nine had been dreaming of getting his hands on a pet’s egg for the longest time ever... With this Black Dragon Egg, he was not worried that he wouldn’t bleed for it.
“Young Master Feng will definitely like this item.” At the thought of this, Old Nine revealed a smile belonging to a typical businessman as he extended his hand to take over the egg.
“Pah!”
Fearless swung his staff and hit Old Nine’s hand, “What are you in a rush for? You haven’t given us an estimated price.”
Old Nine was slightly shocked as he pondered for a moment, “Don’t worry! Seeing how rare this item is, the minimum will be at least two hundred thousand gold!”
“Two hundred thousand gold... hehe.”
Wang Yu and Fearless smiled at each other after hearing that.
Two hundred thousand gold was equivalent to over ten million and even a God-grade equipment now would only cost over a few million dollars. They couldn’t believe such a job-restricted pet egg would actually be able to fetch such high prices...
Regardless of how rare the dragon egg was, it was something that needed to be trained. Without mentioning the fact that the rate of growth would be extremely slow, the level of the pet would never exceed that of the user. Players of the current stages of the game were merely at most level 50. How can a level 50 dragon look overly impressive?
In terms of attributes, a pet’s egg and a God-grade equipment were never on par.
However, this was definitely a price only those wealthy prodigals would pay. If it were any other players, they wouldn’t bear to spend so much on a pet’s egg to play.
“Hehe!” Old Nine smiled, “And that is only my initial estimation. If we really put it up for the auction, I’m sure the eventual transaction price will exceed this by a lot. You have to consider the mindset of those wealthy men. If they are willing to spend over ten thousand gold on an Obsidian equipment, they would definitely not be bothered with spending over a hundred thousand gold on the pet’s egg. Remember that they only yearn for the rarest and not the best.”
“Hehehe...” Wang Yu looked over at Fearless and said, “This fella is a better profiteer than you.”
“This is the intelligence of a businessman!” Old Nine took over the Dragon Egg happily as he sent a contract to Wang Yu before saying, “I will arrange a VIP seat for the two of you for the auction tomorrow.”
Wang Yu looked at the contract as he couldn’t stop smiling, “There is no hurry for this contract. I still have one more item that I need you to sell for me.”
Naturally, Wang Yu took out the City Lord Seal and handed it to Old Nine.
When Old Nine saw a squarish plaything, he initially thought Wang Yu was going to ask him to sell something of no value as a favour.
Any other day, Old Nine was definitely going to ignore Wang Yu but with the dragon egg in hand, Old Nine would even accept a wooden sword if that was what Wang Yu wanted him to sell.
Therefore, Old Nine took over the seal and said, “No worries... Isn’t this just a small thing? Is it a weapon or jewelry?”
Old Nine took a quick glance at the attributes of the seal in his hands.
“F*ck!!”
Old Nine couldn’t help but curse at the sight of what he was holding in his hand. In fact, he even threw it out immediately.
Fortunately, Wang Yu was sharp and had fast reaction speed as he extended his hand to catch the seal before handing it back to Old Nine.
“Godly!!! You are truly the great god!!!”
Old Nine held onto Wang Yu’s hand as his body was trembling with respect and admiration. He no longer had any idea how to use words to describe his current feeling. He even almost knelt down on the spot to kowtow to Wang Yu.
City Lord Seal!
This was a genuinely excellent item!
In terms of rarity, it was certainly not any lower than the pet egg.
In terms of preciousness, it exceeded any other item in this entire game.
In terms of attributes, it was definitely not inferior to a God-grade equipment.
No matter which angle you looked at it from, this was the highest quality auction item ever witnessed in Old Nine’s entire career. He had never come across an item which even he didn’t dare to give an estimation of the price.
