Chapter One Thousand One Hundred and Ninety Three Methods Beyond Common Sense
"No. 3105 - Ten cubic meters of A3 alloy!"
When the answer appeared, Gloria's soaring voice rang out in the white light of the stage,
The moment they saw this auction item, the technicians from several forces in the box suddenly moved.
As a material needed to build the most advanced technological equipment, the smelting and purification of A3 requires specialized factory-level facilities, and the process is complex and time-consuming.
Although the provenance is very small, they often appear in small quantities and are quickly bought by others. Therefore, whether you use them yourself or use them as resource chips,
A3 alloy is absolutely hard currency in the world of night fighting.
But when he saw this hot auction item in the box, Fangran was startled out of instinct.
"What, are you interested in this thing?"
Noticing his strangeness, Veronica tilted her head and asked with a clever smile,
"No... I just suddenly remembered some muscle memory."
After hearing her words and speaking silently, Fangran looked at the extremely familiar things in the center of the stage and recalled the huge project involving 200 billion US dollars.
During the midnight period, he would produce hundreds of pieces of these A3 alloys every day.
Shaking his head, he put the memory of the otherworldly fairyland back into his heart, reminding himself of the main purpose of coming here tonight.
Focusing his attention back on the auction itself, Fangran saw another new lot appear.
The first mysterious item tonight, the starting price is 180 million,
Number 2047——[Storm Letter]!
There are only two sources of mysterious items, scene rewards and mysterious side participants who can 'independently solidify' abilities to the object to a certain extent.
The probability of the former is very low, and the latter can only rely on talent.
Therefore, compared with various technological equipment, the number of mysterious items in the night battle world has always been very small, so the price is often much more expensive than the same technological equipment.
But even so, there is often a price but no market. Those with powerful or special abilities will trigger an undercurrent of events if they are exposed at the slightest hint.
After all, even if it is a consumable product with a number of uses, it is no less than a night device to a certain extent.
Looking at the virtual projection on display, a piece of torn letter paper turned into a gust of wind and blew away several black numbers, with a power of about B-level level.
Fangran watched as a fierce competition began again in the boxes in the audience.
Then at this moment, as if all the necessary information had been gathered,
Fangran heard Veronica chuckle next to her:
"Haha, it looks simpler than I thought."
When he heard her say this, he turned his eyes. Hearing these somewhat abrupt words, he was confused for a moment, but when he thought of the 'another method' she just said,
Fang Ran's golden eyes flashed and he looked at Veronica with surprise:
"Did you find it?"
This sentence was full of disbelief when I blurted it out. Even if I prepared the means to definitely find that lot, at this moment when the seventeen lots were just passed,
She hadn't even waited for the thing that concealed Troy's location to appear, so how could she have predicted it...
"Hmph..."
When he heard the young man was surprised, he let out a smart chuckle,
"Hide the medium that activates the ability into an auction item, and let the person who is photographed avoid the blockade of the Nightless Palace and take him away from the black market,"
She kept swiping the projection interface in the box and talking about the methods used to form associations. She leaned on the armrest of the sofa and smiled sweetly:
"If you want to do this, you must first ensure that the person's actions are controllable,"
"In order to ensure that he left New York immediately after taking the photo, the person who finally took the photo will definitely not be an unrelated person who does not know the truth, but will definitely be someone arranged by the association,"
"So in other words it's not a question of finding one of the seventeen lots, but..."
With her finger pressed on the interface located in the boxes throughout the venue, Veronica looked at Fangran with a slight smile.
"A game to find someone out of the 49 bidders in the audience."
Fangran was stunned when he heard this sentence. Fangran suddenly felt enlightened.
And after saying this, he let out a crisp chuckle,
"As for the problem of changing into someone else, that's easy."
Veronica looked at the projection interfaces of all the boxes in front of her with her silver-gray eyes with a smile.
"People can think, have motivations, and have behavior patterns based on interests,"
"It's impossible that the black market doesn't know what happened tonight, so in order to help the association complete its plan, the auction house will definitely not put that lot at the opening where everyone is paying attention,"
"And the person who came to perform the mission tonight will never attract attention to take photos of other items besides that one."
While saying this, her delicate white fingers moved lightly,
The boxes that had successfully bid at the beginning, headed by No. 12, were destroyed one by one.
"For the same reason, he will never bid above my price or market valuation, because the risk of no one following the price is too high, and it is very likely that he will accidentally buy another one."
When this sentence fell, everyone who had followed Veronica’s bid or bid to the final stage,
In other words, the boxes that really wanted to take pictures of those items were also blocked.
At this moment, she finally understood what her ridiculous bid was for. Fangran saw that after two eliminations,
The number of private rooms on the projection interface was suddenly reduced to less than half!
"But it is impossible for him to not bid all the time, watch all the other auctions, and only bid for a specific auction. It is simply too easy for the Night Palace to target him,"
"Then what will he do?"
Like a hunter analyzing the psychology of his prey, Veronica looked at the projection in front of her with a flawless smile,
"He would make a few symbolic bids at the 'safe price' below my bid to show his presence, and then wait until the lot with the 'beacon' hidden appeared,"
"Among the remaining boxes that meet this criteria are..."
When another batch of boxes were destroyed, only the last eight numbers were left on the projection!
"And in the end, after I made high bids more than once but didn't bid to the end, anyone could have guessed what I was testing,"
"The one who suddenly stopped bidding,"
The fingertips stayed on the last number, as if pretending to be lucky,
Veronica looked at Fangran with a smile on her face:
"Ah, there happens to be only the last one left."
And at this moment, looking at the last number ‘35’ on the projection interface,
Fangran's eyes were speechless for a moment.
Instead of directly observing and looking for which item has problems, we start with the person who will take the photo, and filter out that person's location layer by layer by integrating various information.
This is completely beyond Fangran's imagination.
No, maybe it’s not a matter of imagination at all.
Although it seems to be a simple elimination method, that person seems to have nowhere to hide,
But even after hearing Veronica's method, Fangran didn't feel like he could do the same thing just now.
Even if we don’t talk about analyzing the interests of all parties, specifically judging which boxes are symbolic bids rather than strategic abandonment requires both insight, experience, and professional knowledge.
Just remembering the bids for dozens of boxes in the entire venue is beyond the power of ordinary people...
After all, being able to confirm a person's psychology and behavioral logic from something like the hesitation time of bidding is another profound level that is beyond ordinary people's cognition.
Although it has long been known that the queen of the business empire has various superhuman qualities,
But Fangran felt this again at this moment.
"Are you sure who is in this box?"
Although he had already believed it subconsciously when he heard about the 'human problem', Fangran still felt so unbelievable that he couldn't help but speak out.
And he just chuckled softly,
"You should be able to confirm it soon. The intense atmosphere brought about by the opening is almost over,"
Veronica looked at Gloria on the stage with interesting eyes:
"The experienced auctioneer will definitely take advantage of the calm atmosphere to let the item appear, and then he will definitely suppress the real bids of all opponents."
Hearing her words, his eyes were strange, but just as Veronica said, the opening that seemed to heat up the bidding atmosphere had passed.
Fangran saw that after [Storm Letter], several auction items began to appear at the same starting price, and the intensity of competition also eased.
Then, in this atmosphere that was already in the middle of the auction, as the starting price of a new lot appeared,
In the dark auditorium of the auction venue, box No. 35 suddenly took the lead and lit up.
"No. 35, 190 million!"
In the white light of the stage, Gloria loudly announced a bid that was directly raised by 20 million!
When he saw the movement of No. 35, the golden pupils of his right eye looked at the auction item in the center of the stage. When the power of the King of Gods took effect,
[...steel, titanium alloy, silicon crystal optical path, energy reaction device, energy guide track...]
Among the series of materials that make up the auction, one piece of information stands out!
-[Ability medium with dependence and connection]-
The moment I read this line of text, I felt like I had finally let go of the last suspense tonight.
Fangran exhaled slowly and lightly.
"Looking at your expression, I must have guessed it right."
And without even needing to answer, Veronica smiled happily as if she had answered a guessing game correctly. At this moment, Veronica looked at the young man with golden pupils beside her:
"By the way, what are you going to do now? The price is already close to 200 million US dollars..."
Speaking of this, she asked with a smile on her face.
"Do you want me to lend you money?"
"No."
Not to mention that bidding on it will only make the other party give up their plan. If you collude with the auction house, the other party may not have to pay at all.
Seeing that Veronica only wanted to say that on purpose, Fangran declined with calm eyes.
After hearing what he said, Veronica smiled lightly, took out a small blue pistol from nowhere, and regained her eagerness to try:
"Then we still have to take action? Do we want to ambush him on the road?"
Looking at the psionic pistol that seemed to be put up for auction, she was speechless. She was always looking forward to having some exciting fun.
At this moment, Fangran looked at the queen in front of him and said nothing. He just raised his hand and grabbed it in the air.
[Creating Card] The moment it was activated! A strange crystal appeared directly in his hand!
And the moment I saw this scene,
Veronica's silver-gray eyes flashed with indescribable brilliance!
