บท 1486: Request

The bidding started at a rather high number, which surprised Alex quite a lot toward the start.

40 thousand Saint spirit stones. 

In other words, enough spirit stones to last the machine for 40 days at the lowest possible setting. There was no way it was going to stay at 40 thousand spirit stones for any longer than a fraction of a second.

It didn't even take that long.

The moment Alex turned his head toward the bid counter, it flickered through numbers faster than mortal eyes could see.

Bids from 50,000 through 80,000 were essentially non-existent as everyone realized the big was going to cross 100 thousand without a doubt.

Alex waited for the numbers to slow down before he planned on bidding at all. When he saw it cross 100 thousand, his heart skipped a beat.
