Chapter 208: First Move!
“51,000!”
The Fire Beacon Guild was still unwilling to give up and continued bidding.
To them, although the military was powerful, they had to compete. Otherwise, it was not their style to give it up so easily.
“52,000 gold coins!”
In the last row, someone announced their first bid.
“The Deputy Guild Leader of the Bloody Mercenaries, Steel Eagle, can’t hold it in anymore.”
“They specialize in games, so it’s normal for them to fight for fame.”
Some players whispered.
“55,000!”
Another unknown player spoke.
Everyone looked but they had no impression of the person. The player did not show himself and hid in the corner after bidding.
He was the lackey of the Dark Guild in Iron Skull City. Because they did not want to miss anything, he was arranged to develop his faction in Iron Skull City. This time, he came because he wanted to bring back the Guild Establishment Token for the Netherworld Guild.
The current price had already reached 55,000 gold coins, far exceeding most people’s expectations.
The competition was not over.
The reputation of this “number one guild” was extraordinary to these large guilds. Its value in reputation far exceeded the value of the Guild Establishment Token itself.
Therefore, someone quickly continued bidding.
“56,000 gold coins!”
“56,500 gold coins!”
“57,000 gold coins!”
“57,500 gold coins!”
The offers came one after another, but the price did not increase much.
The current price was close to 200 million alliance dollars. Even if these guilds had the support of a large financial group, it was difficult to directly buy an item for a few hundred million dollars. After all, creating a guild only raised one’s reputation and did not directly bring benefits.
Therefore, the bidding had entered a stalemate.
Sitting in the stall, Lorne was overjoyed. No matter where the final price fell, it was twice the expected price.
Moreover, this also gave him high hopes for the subsequent Guild Establishment Tokens.
As long as he could exchange for the most Guild Establishment Tokens in the shortest time, he believed that those large guilds that wanted to catch up to other opponents would definitely buy the Guild Establishment Tokens at a high price.
At that time, the net profit that Lorne would obtain might exceed a billion!
…
“58,000 gold coins!”
“58,300 gold coins!”
“58,500 gold coins!”
The price was still rising, but at this time, the price increase was only two to three hundred gold coins.
At this rate, the final price might stop at 60,000 gold coins.
Just as Lorne thought this, the player hiding in the corner suddenly shouted a shocking price.
“70,000 gold coins!”
As soon as this price was out, the entire scene was silent.
The price that was originally barely close to 60,000 was suddenly pushed to 70,000. Immediately, no one dared to speak.
10,000 gold coins was equivalent to 30 million alliance dollars. Even the representatives of large guilds could not help but shiver. After all, the price had already reached 70,000 gold coins. This was a little too terrifying.
Hearing this price, the Domination Guild player hesitated.
It was not because they could not afford to pay more than 200 million dollars. To the corporation behind them, 200 million dollars was nothing.
However, the problem was that not long ago, they had already spent a lot of money to rope in some top players. If they spent more than 200 million to buy the Guild Establishment Token now, the guild’s finances would definitely exceed the budget.
Moreover, creating a guild seven days in advance might not necessarily bring back enough returns.
Thinking of this, the Domination Guild’s commander, who had wanted to continue bidding, did not speak again.
The remaining members of the Fire Beacon Guild and the Divine Mage Guild who were most competitive also fell silent.
Clearly, this price had exceeded their highest expectations.
“70,000 gold coins, going once!”
On the stage, Rona knocked on the auction hammer.
There was silence below the stage. No one spoke again.
The Netherworld Guild player who shouted 70,000 gold coins clenched his heart.
This was the price their guild was staking everything on. If someone else offered a higher price, they had to give up.
But as a lackey, he did not want to lose this opportunity.
He needed this Guild Establishment Token to raise his position in the headquarters.
Right now, he was only the leader of a small guild, but he had his own ambitions. He wanted to obtain the recognition of the headquarters and raise the scale of the guild in Iron Skull City. Only then would he have a chance to be a decision-maker of the company.
“70,000 gold coins, going twice!”
Rona spoke again. She was even waiting, hoping to give the hesitant one a chance.
Unfortunately, no one raised the price.
“70,000 gold coins, sold!”
With the third knock of the auction hammer, everything was finally over.
This was the first time that a Guild Establishment Token had appeared in the entire server, and it was finally sold for 70,000 gold coins.
The representative of the “Netherworld Guild” quickly paid the fees and left the shop with the Guild Establishment Token.
However, when he received the Guild Establishment Token, someone had already left the shop before him.
It was Lorne.
Although it was indeed the first Guild Establishment Token that was sold, it did not mean that the Guild Establishment Token could help the other party create the first guild in the game.
“I’m sorry, friend. I have to beat you to it.”
Lorne pushed through the crowd to where the registrar was.
It could be seen that because of the Guild Establishment Token, this place was already packed with players. They all wanted to know who was the first to create the guild.
When they saw Lorne arrive, all the players’ eyes widened.
“Gosh! Why is Tyrant here at this time?!”
“Does he want to register a guild?”
“That’s not right. Didn’t he auction his Guild Establishment Token?”
“Perhaps he already has a second Guild Establishment Token.”
“It’s possible. Someone discovered it a few hours ago. Tyrant hid his points on the leaderboard. It’s probably for now.”
“Gosh, that’s too much. Those large guilds thought that it was the first Guild Establishment Token and would definitely bid crazily. In the end, while they were auctioning, this guy suddenly intercepted. Isn’t this a scam?”
“So what if he scammed them? Those large guilds occupy the training areas every day. It’s time to teach them a lesson.”
“That’s right, I support Tyrant on this!”
The solo players discussed.
As ordinary players, they all hated the rich. At this moment, when they saw a solo player “teaching” the large guilds a lesson, they naturally raised their hands in praise.
However, this matter was too much for the players of large guilds.
In a panic, they quickly opened their leader’s communication panel and reported the information they had obtained nervously, afraid that they would suffer a huge loss.
