After another five minutes of procrastination, the auction finally began.
Ditrian lightened the contemplator a few times, and when the screen lighted up, he first began to introduce the auction rules.
Due to the special identity of the Astart War and the empire's non-standard economic policies, the auction remains in a bartering mode.
The list of exchange items corresponding to a certain auction item is listed by the Astral Knight, and the latest delivery time may be equipment, warships, or other materials and personnel.
If both parties bid consistently, then priorities should be arranged in the order of bidding, that is, the hands are fast and the hands are slow.
But if no one bids for the first auction, then the second auction method - the "benchmark" trading stage will enter.
The so-called "benchmark" refers to the standard price of the corresponding general material standards of the Knight of the Astrology. For example, a new Mark VII power armor without any external equipment, its benchmark price is 100, a brand new standard explosive gun, the benchmark is 10, a brand new standard unyielding terminator, the benchmark price is 1000, a brand new sword-class or dagger-class frigate, the benchmark price is 15,000, etc.
At that time, the auctioneer can make free combination bids based on the benchmark price of the auction item. For example, the price of a certain auction item is 30,000, then it can be two frigates or 30 sets of unyielding terminators.
If the bidding rules are the first auction mode, then the first priority is the delivery time, the second priority is the subsequent accumulated price, and the third priority is the special model of the same equipment.
The second auction model will have the first priority in the subsequent accumulated price, the second priority in the delivery time, and the special model will have the third priority in the special model.
“…...Now, the first auction item, multiple heterojunction biological energy storage material.”
As Ditrian tapped his finger, basic information about the auction was sent to twenty-three boxes.
"We are unable to fully analyze this template, but based on the currently known data, we are probably clear that this is a special material that can be used to make biobatteries. I remember that since the M33 period, there has been no major breakthrough in the field of biobatteries, which has also led to a long-term stagnation of the actual combat level of the armed servants, and it is even more regressive than the M30 period. Perhaps this will be an important inspiration point."
After saying that, Ditrian listed the supplies needed for the auction.
"Based on the value of this template, the battle group will list the following list, including 10 new Thunder Eagles with a full set of weapons and equipment, 20 sets of Unyielding Terminator, 50 sets of Mark VII Power Armor, and a matching jet pack. It will be delivered within five years, and there will be a fifty-year contract for parts and ammunition supply, with a base price of 1,000."
Ammunition and equipment parts can also be used as bidding items, but they are not reflected in the form of specific quantities, but are the model of supply contracts.
Ditrian's words had just finished, and a green light came on in a private room.
"Who can cast the world so generous?"
Of course, it is difficult for outsiders to know who was bidding, but Loveles is very clear, so when Locken asked a question, she thought for a few seconds and found the answer.
"It's Agripina, they are located near the Eye of Fear, and have been besieged many times in history. Their main defense is the apologists and the servants. Obviously, they will not let go of this technology that has the opportunity to greatly increase the combat power of biological weapons."
Just as everyone was talking, another private room where the Agripina mission was located was only twenty meters away, and the lights were also on.
“The delivery is completed in three years!”
Ditrian raised his arms and raised three fingers on it.
In fact, he doesn't have to do this, because all auction price data will appear on the contemplators in each box at all times, but he seems to enjoy his identity as a host.
Then, Agripina's private room lights up again.
“Term delivery is completed in two years!”
“Which world is bidding against Agripina?”
"Griffin IV, it is said that they have completely controlled the eight star systems rich in minerals in recent years, and transported hundreds of billions of tons of raw materials to factories that cast the world every day. They are very rich, and their financial resources may not be inferior to Mars. This time they may have to smooth things over the field."
"Mars won't let them do what they want."
Obviously, as Loveless said, the Griffin IV's messenger regiment was indeed coming in full force this time, and the lights of Agripina's casting world were just gone, and theirs lit up again.
“One-time delivery is complete!”
"So cruel."
"I guess I'm so angry at Agripina."
About ten seconds later, seeing that no lights were on again, Ditrian immediately spoke:
"first!"
"Second time!"
Suddenly, the lights of Agripina's casting world box lit up again.
"One-time delivery, and the amount of the supply contract increased to a benchmark price of 2,000!!"
This time, Griffin No. 4 did not bid anymore. Obviously, this template is better for them, but it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t.
In the end, Agripina cast the world and got her wish, taking a photo of the template they had high hopes for.
However, the template will not be delivered on site, and the messenger group will get some template data and will not get all templates until the goods are delivered.
"The second auction item is an unknown model of two-seater civilian vehicle. The template analysis progress is 70%, and it contains a variety of ancient technologies, but the value needs further verification."
Compared to the previous one, this is a complete set of STC technology templates, which are the type that can be manufactured immediately after analysis.
As for its value, as Ditrian said, it does need further verification.
But its emergence has been an amazing achievement that has not been seen in mechanical education for thousands of years.
"Based on the value of this template, the battle group will list the following list, three sword-class or same-tonnage frigates, brand new or service life, no more than one hundred years, and include a full set of crew members and servants, and will be delivered within ten years."
At the first moment, a strange private room lit up, which was located ten meters away on the right side of Soshiyang on the platform.
"It's Mars!"
Loveles whispered, with some awe.
But soon, another private room lit up.
"It's still Griffin Four."
“Delivery within eight years!”
Mars was not to be outdone and the lights lit up again.
“Delivery within seven years!”
At this time, another unfamiliar private room also lit up.
“Who is who?”
"It is Lucius, who cast the world. They are the main arsenals of the empire, and the production level of docks is also very high. They really don't care about small things like frigates."
The name of Lucius Casting World is derived from a unique alloy known as "Yangyan" and is known for its durability. The armor and weapons of the world's army are forged with this alloy, so the soldiers of Lucius Casting World can easily resist the fire attacks of light weapons.
Another reason why it made the world-famous empire at the same time was that Lucius was actually a hollow planet, which was once part of a great experiment, and this experiment was enough to destroy the planet more than a dozen times.
Finally, the result of the experiment was that the center of Lucius' once barren core was now an artificial sun, a huge nuclear fusion reactor, providing energy for the forging plants spreading above.
Therefore, Lucius' unlimited energy supply made it one of the vanguards of the Imperial military production. The Krieger's death army was equipped almost all from Lucius, which was able to forge everything from guns to armored vehicles. Their Steel Walker Gunners and Wild Donkey Dune Crawlers are the most aggressive among all the Apocalypse combat troops.
Its dock is also one of the important sources of warship supplements for the Imperial Navy.
“Five years of delivery!”
Lucius's move did not suppress Mars' desire to obtain the template, and the lights in the box followed him and lit up again.
