Capítulo 247: Chapter 242 Blocking the Black Serpent

```

"Brother, why is this rune stone not auctioned off for gold coins?" Xiao Chunzi asked, puzzled.

"Because gold coins can depreciate, but Holy Crystal Stones won't. Look at those people in the VIP seats, who would be short on gold coins? Some Holy Domain Warriors can easily shell out tens of millions, but last time I attended an auction, there were plenty of people with gold coins, but only one with a Holy Crystal Stone," Huang Yi said, then turned his gaze to the stage below.

"One Holy Crystal Stone for the first time, the second time..." the auctioneer raised his hammer, announcing loudly.

The crowd was silent. Holy Crystal Stones were something that most players could hardly ever possess, and even if they did, they would keep them for themselves rather than trading them for something else.

"Bang!" In the end, the hammer fell, and the top-level rune was taken by Dugu Lengcang, just like at the last auction.
