Chapter 789 Black Dragon Scale
Lu Yu’s words shocked everyone.
“Pay now? Really?”
“Whoa, he’s sure generous!”
“He must be a hidden wealthy person; that explains why I haven’t seen him before.”
“Such wealth is truly terrifying!”
At this moment, the emcee smiled awkwardly and replied, “I’m sorry. We’ve always waited until the end of the auction to settle the bill. Therefore, we still have to continue the auction now.”
After saying that, he looked at a woman beside him and said, “Bring up the next auction item.”
The woman nodded slightly. Soon, she pushed a small cart up the stage.
At this moment, everyone looked over intently. However, when they saw that it was an ordinary-looking ore, they all revealed puzzled expressions.
“What is this?”
“It seems to be some kind of ore. Is it very rare?”
“It doesn’t look special, but I’m sure it’s not ordinary.”
At this moment, the emcee explained, “The next auction item is called Heavenly Star Rock. This rock is scarce; it is an essence ore extracted from a meteorite. Generally speaking, a piece of equipment made from this ore will be at least of Epic-grade!”
“Without a doubt, this will be a top-tier forging material. After obtaining this material, it’s equivalent to getting yourself a powerful piece of equipment!”
“The most important thing is that this is a raw material. You can forge any equipment that suits you. If you are good at a saber, then forge a saber. If you prefer a longsword, then forge a longsword!”
Hearing this, everyone was tempted, as such precious material was indeed unique. After obtaining it, they could forge themselves a powerful piece of equipment.
At that moment, Lu Yu, who was in the crowd, fixed his gaze on the ore.
Han Xuefei, sitting next to him, frowned and said, “This Heavenly Star Rock seems to be one of the materials needed to make the whetstone for sharpening the Star Piercing Demonic Sword.”
“That’s right. A whetstone can be formed with four dragon scales and the Heavenly Star Rock to help sharpen the Star Piercing Demonic Sword!”
“I want this for sure. No one can take it from me!”
After all, everyone here was from the Star Science Chamber of Commerce, and the Qin family was the wealthiest among them.
“The starting price is 10 million!”
When the emcee announced the starting prince, someone immediately started bidding.
“I bid 20 million!”
“I’ll pay 50 million. I need this thing!”
“I just happen to lack a suitable weapon and know a good blacksmith. I’ll take this ore for 60 million!”
“Hehe, only 60 million? I’ll pay 80 million! This ore can help our company develop new materials, so I won’t let it go!”
The competition below the stage was intense, as one bid after another was called out.
Lu Yu was not in a hurry. He would let these people fight for it and only make his move when their limits were reached. At that time, he would be able to take it easily.
Very soon, the voices of the bidders faded away, leaving only one person to call out the final price.
“I bid 150 million!”
The person who spoke was a young man in a white suit with a swept-back hairstyle. He revealed an extraordinarily confident and arrogant smile.
“This Heavenly Star Rock is mine. No one can snatch it away from me!”
“150 million, going once!” the emcee shouted.
“I bid 200 million.” Lu Yu announced calmly.
His voice attracted many gazes.
The young man also looked over and was angry. “You want to compete with me? I’ll let you know what despair is!!”
“I bid 210 million!”
“I, Bai Hang, don’t believe I can’t get this Heavenly Star Rock today!”
Lu Yu glanced at the man and shook his head helplessly when he saw that this young man was determined to win.
“250 million.”
Lu Yu continued to raise the price, dropping Bai Hang into despair instead.
“Why would you bid like that? 250 million, are you crazy?” He turned around and looked at Lu Yu with an incredulous expression.
Lu Yu replied calmly, “If you want it, continue to bid.”
“Fine, you win. I don’t want this thing anymore!”
Bai Hang sat back down angrily and huffed.
He couldn’t understand what was going on. The previous item had been auctioned for 300 million; now, Lu Yu had spent another 250 million. His extravagance was simply outrageous!
The other bidders also had the same doubts. Where did such a person come from? Such wealth was definitely not something that popped out of nowhere!
“Congratulations to Mr. Lu for winning the second item,” the emcee said with a smile. “Now, let’s begin the third one.”
Soon, the third item was pushed up. It was a beautiful accessory.
However, it was useless to Lu Yu, so he lowered his head and played with his phone.
“Xuefei, you can bid too. If you want anything, just raise the sign, and I will pay when the auction ends.”
Lu Yu was the only one who had received the ID card and could use his position to have the company reimburse him. Han Xuefei couldn’t, but it didn’t matter because Lu Yu could claim everything as his purchases because it wouldn’t affect him much.
Han Xuefei nodded slightly and raised the sign in front of her.
Several items were auctioned consecutively. Although they were of good quality, they were not what Lu Yu needed.
Although he had what basically amounted to endless money, he did not need to buy things he did not need. Doing so would be plain wasteful.
At that moment, an auction item suddenly attracted Lu Yu’s attention.
“The next item is a precious thing. It’s a Black Dragon’s scale!”
For a moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on the center of the stage.
On the stage, a pitch-black scale was quietly placed. The scale had a faint luster and contained remarkable energy.
“Damn, it’s lucky I came to this auction. I can’t believe I got to see a dragon scale!”
“Not bad. Equipment forged from dragon scales is terrifyingly powerful.”
“I want this dragon scale. This kind of treasure is too rare!”
When he saw the dragon scale, Lu Yu’s eyes lit up because he needed dragon scales to make his whetstone. Although the Water Spirit Dragon’s body was devoid of scales, there were some small scales on a small area of its head.
With the addition of the Black Dragon’s scale, Lu Yu now had two kinds of scales. He was only two scales away from making the whetstone!
Therefore, he was determined to get this dragon scale. He absolutely could not let this go!
“The starting price is 30 million!”
“I bid 50 million!”
As soon as the host finished speaking, someone immediately raised the price.
At this time, the young man called Bai Hang arrogantly shouted, “I want this dragon scale, and I’ll pay 100 million! Even if the Emperor comes today, don’t think about stopping me from getting the dragon scale!”
