Hye kept cursing it over and over again, feeling like he got tricked or something. He returned to sit over the sofa, eating a few of his dried-up meals while returning to watch the ongoing auction.
Aside from the weird shape of his forehead, he felt nothing else. And that partially made him quite relieved and not anxious.
As he returned to check the auction, he began to be wary of anything sold there. He reread the description of each item, feeling that even the items sold from this universe were scarcely described.
He didn't like that. He kept watching without much interest, watching until the chariot he once noticed was about to get auctioned.
He looked at it, without any buyout price, with one hundred million base price. He knew this was going to be a bloodbath, as he noticed how brutal the fight over grand war weapons and items like this chariot was.
As there was no floor price for these items, it was expected the final price to end multiple times the initial price tags of them.
Hye sat on the sofa, eating from a plate filled with delicious fruit pieces. He was considering whether he should take the risk or not. Yet eventually he decided to give it a go.
As he decided to buy it, he changed the currency used to be that of his green dark realm bone. As for each increase, he decided to make it equal to one hundred thousand bones, which was an amount equivalent to ten million silver grade normal bones.
It was a scary increase without doubt, and he wanted to terrify those who were interested in buying this chariot. As he could tell, the long process of battling between these interested buyers was the thing that made the final price skyrocket.
Yet all his dreams and hopes, all his plans and machinations failed to guess what was going to happen. The moment the auction started; his name appeared as the one raising the bid in a scary way.
The moment his name appeared alongside his race in a bubble, many started to gaze at the screen in pure interest, while others looked in pure evil.
The Hescos were adamant at making him pay lots of price to get this item. It wasn't just limited to this item, but they got orders from high above to make every single item he'd bid on rise to a scary level.
The risk of winning the bet and paying tons of wealth wasn't existent in their eyes. They knew he was waiting on the sideline, fishing for what interested him. So the moment he'd move, he meant to buy that item no matter what.
As for the fear that he might not have enough bones, they doubted that. For twenty years straight, news about Hye exchanging tons of stuff with the Toranks spread like wildfire.
He never stopped exchanging things for his bones. And that meant he already had a ton of them. No one actually knew how much Hye had of his bones, not even his trusted allies, the Toranks, not even his closest friend, Silverlining.
Hye just started bidding when he noticed many were madly increasing the price. The chariot that was supposed to get sold at five hundred normal bone prices, five million dark realm bones, reached a staggering price of two billion!
"They are insane," he blinked twice, looking at this chariot and the scary price next to it, "forget it! You want to play dirty with me, then let's see how you'll handle this…"
He next altered the price he'd increase, instantly doubling the price. It was a gamble, either he'd win the race over this awesome chariot, or they'd risk raising the price again and then he'd sit in his place, laughing on their misery.
Paying such an enormous amount of wealth just for one item? That was indeed crazy. He knew if they fell for his trap, they'd pay a hefty price for this.
"He doubled it!"
"He is crazy!"
"He wants to scare us away, fearing to pay more…"
"Let's pressure him then… Who is going to challenge him back?"
"Screw this, I'm going to f*ck his wealth up! He killed and humiliated lots of my race and won't handle this!"
Most if not all of the audience were stupefied in their places the moment Hye raised the price in such a scary way. Yet when the sexy lady was about to call this for him, one of the Hescos race members raised the price, doubling it again!
"Hahahaha! No f*cking way! He fell for it, hahahahaha!" the moment Hye saw this and he couldn't control his laughter anymore, "do you take me for a fool? For half of this price, I can buy a fleet of grand chariots as much as I like, hahahaha!"
Hye knew this chariot was quite special and powerful, and yet he didn't like the idea of paying much more of what it was worth in return for just keeping his face.
Instead, he relaxed his back, looked in pure amusement while the sexy lady counted down till zero. "Congrats Mr. G from the Hescos race, this is by far one of our priciest items sold in our humble auction in the entire century! Thanks for making all of us witness such a huge wealth getting paid… What the hell? He declined the payment!!!"
Just in the middle of her enthusiastic words, she got a message that Hescos member declined paying the price he bidded.
"Are you sure? Refusing just to pay once will permanently give you a ban! Not to mention everyone else from your esteemed race will be lowered two entire stages in our evaluation system! Are you sure?"
The tone and attitude of the sexy lady totally changed when she regained her composure. It felt like she wasn't a merchant, but a vicious warrior, standing in the heart of a deadly battle, about to kill that enemy who dared to spit on her face!
