"Wang, have you received the system announcement? Tomorrow the system will hold a world-wide large-scale auction."
"I heard that the auction venue is set up in a separate copy space. Judging from the released information, the palace-style building is really luxurious."
"It's a pity that the tickets are a bit too expensive. Do you think we should go and join in the fun?"
After York heard the system announcement, he immediately shared and discussed it with Wang Hao. Although his words were inquiring, it was clear from his tone that he would definitely join in the fun.
Having just cooled down from the excitement of getting a huge windfall, Wang Hao let himself relax for a while, hid in the cabin and had a good sleep. As for communications, all communications were set to harassment-free mode.
When he woke up, he saw that his communicator was jumping non-stop. Some were from York, some were from Valerie, and some were from the little girl. In fact, even Kai sent a question mark. As for that guy Rokov
Not to mention, ask directly if you want to go together.
After sending a positive reply to all these people, Wang Hao thought about it and quit the game. In his current state, it was impossible for him to do things with peace of mind, so he might as well relax himself completely.
Walking out of the door, Wang Hao saw Lance Bernard, who had just returned from get off work. The latter had been working at Baoli Company for almost a week. He performed very well and helped Wang Hao share a large part of the work and pressure.
.
During this period, Lance's main focus was on business development in real life, so he got off work very late every day.
"Don't work too hard, and pay attention to your health. I'll cook tonight to show you my skills." Wang Hao smiled and patted Lance on the shoulder.
"If you don't work hard, how can you be worthy of the salary you gave me, boss?" Lance smiled mischievously. Then he shrugged, obviously not having high expectations for Wang Hao's skills.
Wang Hao did not refute, let the facts prove it. Before going out to buy groceries, he called Valerie again and said he had something to discuss with her.
That night, more than a dozen colorful dishes were placed on the dining table in the hall. Looking at the surprise on the faces of the two people in front of him, Wang Hao felt full of accomplishment.
After dinner, Lance also went out for a walk, leaving the space for two crazy men and women whose eyes could make water drip from their eyes.
The battle lasted for several hours, and it was not even clear when Lance came back.
The next day, when Valerie came out wearing Wang Hao's shirt and shorts, she didn't feel any embarrassment when she saw Lance. After breakfast, the three of them started doing their own things.
As usual, I logged into the forum and browsed today's news. Many of the news titles were related to the auction of the century.
The most heated dispute was over the admission fee of 10 gold coins. Some people who spoke fiercely pointed out that this was a feast that only the rich were eligible to participate in. Their words were full of indignation and injustice.
Indeed, for ordinary players, the admission fee of 10 gold coins is indeed too expensive. Even if they can afford it, they may not be willing to part with it.
There is no absolute fairness in this world, and the game King of One Piece gives players around the world a relatively equal starting point. As for how each person can develop in the future, it depends on themselves.
In fact, there are many people in the game who have made great achievements from scratch. Players who only want to shout dissatisfaction are only a minority after all. Most players can look at this matter with a relatively rational attitude.
Someone once suggested on the official website that even if they are unable to enter the auction site, they still want to feel the atmosphere and excitement and hope to watch the live broadcast of the auction through video.
This proposal was quickly approved by the officials, and a large virtual screen was set up in each major port. Players can learn some details of the auction through the effects on the screen.
Because of this verbal battle between players, the reputation of the Century Auction has reached another level.
Many people regard participating in this auction as a status symbol. Players who were still hesitant immediately bought tickets. Some people even borrowed money to buy tickets in order to participate in this event. It seemed that
After this experience, I really felt like I was superior to others.
Faced with the overwhelming enthusiasm of players, the official not only failed to take measures to cool down the situation, but instead added fuel to the fire, openly announcing that some players at the top of the rankings could enter for free.
The forum became even more lively at this time. You must know that the top ten players in the major rankings all have huge influence and appeal. Just to have close contact with their idols, many players would not even frown.
I decided to buy a ticket and attend.
After hearing the news, York and others originally thought that Wang Hao could also enjoy this kind of treatment. However, after taking a closer look at the rankings, they discovered that their idea was wrong.
There are too many fierce men in the world. Among the three levels, Wang Hao's combat level is the highest, and his world ranking is only 98th. His navigation level is not even in the top 1,000, and his trade level is even worse.
If he is willing to expose his wealth, he can occupy a place on the world's richest list, but he will only do such things to attract hatred if his forehead is slapped.
You must know that the mentality of hating the rich will always exist no matter which game you play. Six of the top ten players on the rich list choose to remain anonymous, and the remaining four are presidents of major online game guilds. They have huge
With his strength, he is naturally not afraid of others coveting him, and most of this wealth belongs to the entire guild and is just temporarily stored with them.
In addition, in rankings such as adventure, reputation, merit, bounty, etc., Wang Hao's ranking is so high that he can't stand out even if he falls into the water.
After finally waiting for Wang Haolu to log into the game, others such as York and others had already been waiting at the agreed place for a long time.
Although the entrance to the auction has not yet opened, the ticket booth is already full of players.
Many players who could not come in person to experience the atmosphere of the auction also gathered here. Looking at the excited players, their faces were full of envy, and they secretly decided in their hearts that he must be one of these people in the next auction of the century.
one.
Wang Hao saw the enthusiasm on the faces of the surrounding players. The auction hadn't even started yet, but they were so excited. After entering, the bidding was still crazy.
He couldn't help but admire these official methods. He knew the true details of this auction of the century.
To put it bluntly, the game officials feel that players have too much money, and they have to find ways to squeeze it out.
According to the principle that wealth is always concentrated in the hands of a few people, this is why there is this grand event for the top players.
As for the little savings in the hands of ordinary players, the officials don't look at it at all, so they naturally don't bother to pay attention to it.
Standing around Wang Hao, in addition to York and other people from the St. England Guild, there were also Kai, Rokov, Chris, and Christine, almost a dozen people.
He counted the heads and found that most of them were acquaintances. Then he walked to the front of the line and waved his hand, "Here are fifteen tickets." Then he turned back and said with a smile: "I made a small profit recently.
I've covered the admission fee."
Fifteen admission tickets are equivalent to one hundred and fifty gold coins. Even with Chris and Christine's net worth, they couldn't help but show a little surprise after hearing Wang Hao's words, let alone York and others.
Already.
For example, Berlant and others were even more afraid that Wang Hao would regret it, so they shouted long live happily.
Valerie also smiled, but her smile was very forced. However, due to the presence of others, she just leaned over and said in Wang Hao's ear, "Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this."
The delicate hands greeted Wang Hao on his waist and abdomen.
Wang Hao's muscles were stiff, but his expression was normal, "As long as everyone is happy." If he hadn't gotten such a huge windfall, he would definitely not be so generous. As he said, the most important thing today is
Happy.
System: The auction of the century is about to begin, please bring your tickets to enter.
This mechanical voice rescued Wang Hao from the clutches of the devil, and everyone immediately lined up to enter the venue.
Other players who had no money to buy tickets could only stare helplessly.
"Mouse, we have also entered the area. We are in the C-2 area. Haha, maybe we can meet him then." This is a message sent by Mr. Jie. It can be seen that the development of the Four Seas Guild seems to have been going on in the past few days.
It was very good, and their mood also improved.
Although everyone is now in the same dungeon space, it is extremely difficult to meet each other. There are too many players participating in this event.
It's like if you want to find someone in a stadium with millions of people, it's not that difficult.
However, this doesn't seem impossible.
Wang Hao secretly made a note of this matter, but he still had to wait until he entered the venue before he could consider it.
Since Wang Hao bought the tickets together and the numbers are all connected, he doesn't have to worry about getting lost.
After passing through a special portal, everyone only felt a little discomfort, and the scene in front of them began to change.
In order to truly organize this auction into the top event, the officials have put in a lot of hard work, but a lot of effort was spent on the design of the auction venue this time.
This is a large palace that combines Eastern and Western architectural art. It has a magnificent and magnificent appearance.
When many people saw this building, they exclaimed that this time was so worth it.
As people go deeper, the interior decoration becomes even more amazing.
Although Wang Hao doesn't understand art, he can't help but admire the official's generosity. However, this seems to be suspected of plagiarism, because he clearly sees a trace of the Forbidden City here.
Not only the Forbidden City, in order to build such a model, the game company has collected a large amount of information on top buildings from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see similarities with famous buildings from various countries here.
The center of this building is a huge bird's nest-shaped exhibition room, with a huge exhibition stand in the middle, surrounded by densely packed seats, and above the exhibition stand, ten carriage-like buildings are suspended.
When Wang Hao saw the ten boxes, his eyes lit up and he quickly found an auction manager.
