"Are you your girlfriend? I didn't expect you to like this type of person." Jack, who had been secretly observing, immediately came up to her and said, his eyes shining brightly.
Forgotten Realm is a game where one NPC is more gossipy than the player. Maybe it’s because the other person is a Harper. Sometimes you can really put this profession together with the Eight-Wife.
Ignoring the other party's teasing, Sherlock directly asked about the Lucky Magic Hammer.
Jack has found relevant information. It is not difficult to disassemble equipment. Forging masters in many places have this ability. However, the other two things that make up the Destiny Loom are probably the same as in fairy tales, and they have to be obtained from witches.
If the fairy tale is indeed true to a certain extent, then the people most likely to obtain or know the whereabouts of the loom of fate are the three witches.
In Faerûn, there is only one place where a large number of witches gather, and that is Leatherman, the country of witches.
For Sherlock, who is in Cormyr, Leatherman is already a world on the other side of the continent. Even if he takes a carriage, it will take nearly 15 days to get there.
"Sherlock, time is not in a hurry, and you don't even have to have expectations for it. Maybe, this is all just our delusion."
As Jack said, the Destiny Loom is at least a semi-artifact, and may even be an artifact. No matter what, the system cannot allow players to obtain it at such an early stage.
Shylock, who knew this well, quickly adjusted his mentality of worrying about gains and losses.
The next time is finally the auction that the players have been waiting for. Driven by various forces, this auction can be said to be well-known by everyone, but only a few or thousands of people can actually participate.
It is said that this auction has been organized for high-end customers from the beginning, and the items in the auction are also high-priced goods that easily cost hundreds of thousands of gold coins. It would be meaningless for ordinary people to participate.
Sherlock got two seats because of an auction item, which was just enough to take Aigao out to gain experience. He himself was not prepared to take action, not only because the prices at the auction were inflated, but also because it was really not a good time to buy at this time.
Good times for stuff.
They rushed to the auction house as soon as possible, and under the guidance of an elf girl in a white dress, the two found their seats.
This auction was held in a borrowed venue at Carlo's Grand Opera House. Their location was in row 17, almost behind the middle, and the view was pretty good.
At this time, a human girl in a black dress was standing on the stage to warm up before the auction with a faint smile.
"...Okay, without further ado, the auction will officially begin."
The host gave a signal, and a male player wearing a white vest and straw sandals walked onto the stage. This person was familiar to everyone. He was a well-known game strategy master in the industry - Sloth.
I didn't expect that he would be invited to be the auctioneer this time. Sloth is a notoriously troublesome guy. It's harder to get him to show his face than to ask a female anchor to meet offline. Moreover, he is quite a venomous person, and many people are attracted by him.
He scolded and cried.
However, who makes him capable? Especially regarding game settings, he has extremely keen insight. If you look at the posts on the Forgotten Realm forum, his new posts are pinned to the top almost every day.
"Let's look at the first auction item next." The sloth looked weak and took something from the hands of the two beauties behind him to observe it.
That's right, this guy was just looking at the auction item on the spot.
"A level 15 wooden stick of legendary quality. The main material is the trunk of the fiery tree and silver flower. The texture is 312. It is estimated that the excellent quality equipment before level 40 cannot destroy its ability. The attack is 47. It is pretty good among the same type of weapons. 5 points of strength
, exceeding the rule limit by 1 point, the two skills are quite practical. Recommended professions are warriors, monks, and druids. You can watch the test video for specific effects."
Sherlock looked at the fiery red stick on the screen in front of him, feeling somewhat reluctant to give up. After all, Thorin's Will of Fire had been with him for a long time and made a great contribution to his gaming career.
It's just that he is not yet luxurious enough to collect a piece of legendary equipment. As the level increases, the elimination of this level 15 equipment is inevitable. It is better to take advantage of the current time when the demand is the most intense and still provide him with it.
Use the waste heat in the house on the second ring road.
Nowadays, most of the players above level 20 are professional players and guild players. These two groups have very rational consumption concepts and have their own channels. Generally, they will not buy equipment casually.
The echelon of players from level 15 to level 20 has just left the novice stage and is the time to further enjoy the fun of the game. The crowd is also mainly composed of people with sufficient game time and good living conditions. They are the largest consumer group of this game and also Sherlock.
This kind of person likes to make the most friends.
Therefore, the silver fire stick, which seemed like a useless weapon to Shylock, was like an artifact in their eyes.
"The AOE skill of Flame Sweep is an enhanced version of the fire element of Warrior Sweep. The increase in damage is only secondary. Its eye-catching special effects are quite nice."
"As for the Throw of the Universe, those who have read Part 16 of my career analysis in the Forgotten Realm should know that the practicality of this skill in the mid-range is an irresistible temptation for all melee professions."
The sloth was still chatting on the stage, and the buyers in the audience were already impatient.
Since the launch of the game, legendary equipment is no longer a new thing. Almost most first-class guilds have one or two pieces in their hands. There are also individual players who have both strength and luck. There are nearly 300 pieces of equipment whose names are known in total.
.
This is a lot, but if it is put into the base of hundreds of millions of players, it is quite precious. Especially for the rich, a level 15 legendary equipment is far more valuable than a level 30 excellent equipment with the same attributes.
"So, the base price I gave is 450,000, and the premium is 90,000, for a total of 540,000!"
Sloth's quotation can be said to be quite accurate, and it includes a premium. Normally, 600,000 is enough.
But the auction was not a normal situation. Almost as soon as the bidding system was turned on, the auction price kept rising.
560,000!
600,000!
650,000!
…
After soaring all the way to 920,000, the price finally stabilized. It's not that the rich can't afford higher prices, but if it goes up any higher, it's a bit like being taken advantage of.
In the end, this silver fire wooden stick was bought by a monk for 950,000 yuan. This price was already satisfactory to Sherlock. After deducting the handling fee, plus the price he had given to Ge Erpang in exchange for it.
450,000 and his original 870,000, he already has more than 2 million in assets.
