"Alright, bring me to your auction house first. I still have to see when the auction will start. Otherwise, it'll be too late later," Chris said as he followed the girl to the auction house.
Chris's conversation with the girl was overheard by the two players beside him. One of the players whispered, "Boss, look, it's that guy and the girl beside him is beautiful. She's probably his mistress."
"Hmph!"
The young man named Alva stared at Chris with widened eyes.
It turned out that Alva had once brought a few people to cause trouble for Chris. Then, he brought those people with him and was killed by Chris. Only he and the player beside him were left alive.
Looking at Chris walking towards the auction house in the distance, he gritted his teeth and said, "F*ck, this is ridiculous. This bastard. He's actually here. I must cripple him today."
When the other player heard him, he hurriedly advised, "Boss Alva, don't be rash. Have you forgotten how that guy killed our brothers?"
"How could I not remember? Back then, all of our brothers were killed by this guy. Right now, I truly wish to cut him into pieces."
"Sigh!"
Hearing Alva's words, the other player sighed and said, "It's a pity that we're not strong enough. We're not this guy's match at all. If we could increase our strength, why would we be afraid of this guy? I think this guy is definitely a genius cultivated by a hidden faction, so he's extremely powerful. If we can capture him and send him to those hidden factions, we might be able to obtain more treasures. At that time, we can also soar into the sky."
"Boss is right. As long as we capture this kid, we can go to those hidden factions and obtain a large amount of wealth. In the future, even if we don't go to those hidden factions, we can still live at the pinnacle of our lives. Haha, Boss, I'll leave this matter to you. We'll wait for your news here."
"Alright, I'll handle this matter. I believe that I can definitely do it," Alva nodded and said.

Chris and the girl walked into the auction house and found their seats. They sat down and waited for the auction to begin.
"Mr. Chris, which brand should I use?" The girl sat on the seat and asked.
"Hehe, use it however you want. Anyway, as long as you don't use the most expensive item, you can buy a lot of equipment and obtain a lot of Skill Books and EXP. I believe you will choose this brand."
"That's true. This brand suits me best. And the equipment here is good. I'll pick this one."
"Well, I'll help you pick out an equipment," Chris said. He reached under the table and waved a pair of magic hands. A sign appeared in front of him.
This sign was black with a black dragon pattern engraved on it. The entire sign also looked like a dragon and looked very domineering.
Seeing the equipment that Chris took out, the girl looked at him in surprise. "Mr. Chris, you actually have such a high-level equipment and you can use it. It's unbelievable."
Hearing her praise, Chris smiled and said, "I obtained this thing by chance, so you don't have to be shocked. I still have a lot of good things."
"Oh, yeah. I think these things are just ordinary stuff. I wonder what else you have."
"Hehe, you'll know in a while. Let's see when the auction starts."
"Alright."
The auction would begin at 8 pm.
At this time, the entire auction house had quite a lot of people but no one dared to make a scene here. They knew that if they made a scene here, it might attract the attention of a mysterious player. That would be terrible.
Chris and the girl just sat there, staring at the stage in front of them, waiting for the auction to start.
"Alright, everyone, our auction will officially begin today. First of all, we will be auctioning our first item today. The item in my hand is a Dark Magic Crystal. Although it is only an ordinary stone, I believe that it can display extremely powerful effects. Therefore, the base price of this stone is 10 gold coins."
As the auctioneer's voice fell, a man in gorgeous clothes took out this dark attribute magic crystal from his spatial ring and placed it on the platform in the center of the stage.
The stone on the platform was not big. It was only the size of a fist. It looked extremely ordinary without anything strange.
"Everyone, this is our item for today's auction and also our first time auctioning such a thing today. However, don't be disappointed. The effect of this dark attribute magic crystal is absolutely extraordinary. Therefore, the base price is 50 gold coins, and the increment is not lower than 30 gold coins."
After the auctioneer finished speaking, many people started to compete. These competitors were all players who were aiming for the Dark Crystal.
"50 gold coins. This stone was actually sold for 50 gold coins. I wonder how precious this Dark Crystal is." Chris looked at the Dark Crystal on the table and muttered.
"Hehe, Mr. Chris, although this Magic Crystal looks ordinary on the surface, its value is definitely higher than the gold coins on you. If you sell it, your assets might increase by several times. At that time, even if you go to a hidden power, you can live a very comfortable life. It's not like now where you still need to do missions to earn money." The girl smiled and said.
"Really?" Chris smiled and said, "However, I don't like these things. Unless there's a super treasure or a rare item, I can't be bothered to spend so much money on these things."
"Oh, really? In that case, it's up to me. I hope I don't disappoint you." The girl blinked mischievously.
"50 gold coins, who else wants to increase the price? If not, this dark attribute magic crystal will belong to our auction."
"500 gold coins!"
"1,000 gold coins!"
"11,000 gold coins!"
