Chapter 90 Chapter89-Cozy Ambiance in the Booth, Everyone Stand Up!
John's gaze once again swept over the booths surrounding the second floor.
Although he didn't know who exactly sat in each booth, representatives from significant powers no doubt.
But he was certain about one thing - these folks were definitely waiting for the second round of the auction to start.
Suddenly, Emma offered the snacks in her hand to John, "Johnny, try this. The food in this game world tastes really good."
John indulgently opened his mouth, letting Emma stuff a small bread puff that resembled a cream puff into his mouth.
A rich, creamy sweetness exploded on his taste buds, a lingering sensation that left him wanting more.
He had to say, the creators of Godslayer had done an outstanding job.
Even though these in-game foods didn't actually satiate real-world hunger, they possessed the same texture and taste.
Occasionally experiencing this novelty of eating in-game was quite enjoyable.
John smirked slightly.
Suddenly, he bent his head and bit lightly on Emma's slender, white fingers.
"Eek!" Emma exclaimed, immediately covering her mouth with her other hand.
She quickly looked back to see if White Feather, not too far behind them, had noticed their little flirtation.
Fortunately, White Feather was engrossed in dealing with the food at the bar and hadn't noticed.
Emma hastily withdrew her hand, pinching John in annoyance, "Johnny, what are you doing? White Feather is still here."
John leaned in close to Emma's ear, a teasing grin on his face, "You didn't seem to mind when we were rolling around in bed earlier. Why the sudden shyness?"
Emma's cheeks burned bright red at his insinuation.
John was surprised to notice even her ears were flushed.
He hadn't noticed this detail when they were previously caught up in the heat of passion.
This discovery made John more playful.
His lips drew closer to Emma's ear, "When are you going to come back to school? The lingerie I bought has gathered dust."
"Don't you want to wear that lingerie and show off your perfect figure to me?"
Emma's blush deepened, feeling the heat of John's breath tickle her ear, which made her body subtly hot.
Although they were not in reality, Godslayer's simulation of senses had reached an uncanny level.
Emma felt her in-game body was even more sensitive than in reality.
She gently punched John's chest, a shy tone in her voice, "Johnny, you're too naughty... such a big rogue!"
John chuckled, speaking in a low voice, "But do you like this big rogue?"
Emma snorted softly, her voice soft and tender, and her punches lacked any real strength.
"Hmph! Not at all, I hate rogues the most."
John's eyebrows shot up, "What did you say?"
Emma felt a pair of large hands stealthily move over her chest, and before she knew it, the neckline of her top had been pulled down.
John was making a move inside her top when Emma hastily begged for mercy, "I was wrong, I was wrong, Johnny, I was wrong. I like big rogues the most, okay? Can we not do this here..."
White Feather behind the bar seemed to have noticed something unusual.
She glanced up and instantly blushed, swiftly averting his gaze.
Emma felt even more embarrassed, her sensation akin to that of making out in public.
This intense thrill made the girl feel like she was melting into a puddle.
John smirked, pulling back his hand, no longer teasing the shy girl.
He drew Emma into his embrace, his gaze returning to the auction hall.
After a brief intermission, Isabella once again took to the stage, "Esteemed guests, welcome back to the Dawn Breeze Auction House. I trust everyone has rested and is ready."
"Next, let us officially start the second round of the auction. Trust me, the items in this round will exceed your imagination."
No sooner had Isabella finished speaking than a group of muscular warriors emerged slowly from behind the stage.
These were players under the banner of the Dawn Breeze Auction House, but they were not the lifestyle kind, rather real warriors.
Carrying in their hands were a dozen or so ancient-looking boxes, accompanied by mages wielding staves.
Each person was on full alert, gripping their weapons tightly.
Such high-level escort spoke volumes about the treasures within the boxes.
The warriors lined up the boxes on the display stand.
At Isabella's wave, all the boxes were simultaneously opened.
Instantly, various rays of light shone on the stage.
The inner layers of the boxes rose slowly, showcasing the items inside.
There was a sudden uproar from the crowd, as players jostled to get a better look at the attributes of these items and equipment on stage.
At this point, Isabella smirked and projected the attributes of the equipment and items onto the big screen behind her.
[Heart of Magma (Epic): ...]
This was a necklace emitting a fiery glow, and even from afar, you could feel the explosive fire energy contained within.
[Pursuer in the Dark (Epic): ...]
This was a pair of boots encrusted with high-grade gems.
While modest in appearance, its attributes were astonishing.
Upon equipping, the player would gain the ability for short-distance flight.
John's eyes lit up at this. He was quite interested in these boots.
[Forest Stalker (Epic): ...]
The screen switched again, showing a longbow.
Its attributes were equally top-tier.
John noticed a small detail: the more extraordinary the equipment, the more unique its name.
For example, the previous auctioned items with average attributes were simply named "some wand" or "some necklace".
But the equipment in this second round of auction, each had a unique name...
As the attributes of each item and equipment were displayed on the big screen, the place went totally bonkers.
Nearly every player's eyes glittered with avarice.
Even the powerful factions in the second-floor booths couldn't sit still.
They got up and approached the glass windows, carefully reading the equipment attributes on the screen.
As the auction progressed, the equipment and items on display got even more impressive.
Until finally, Isabella suddenly paused the content display on the screen.
She laughed lightly, "The next two items are the biggest reason why our esteemed guests are here tonight. Two unprecedented Legendary Equip!"
"Dear guests, please carefully observe the attributes of these two pieces of equipment."
With a wave of her right hand, a beautifully-shaped necklace appeared on the screen, followed by the description of the necklace:
[Medusa's Tears (Legendary Necklace)]: Formed from the despairing tears that Queen Medusa shed when she left the abyss. Legend has it that within the endless abyss, Queen Medusa once bore the important mission of revitalizing the Medusa race, but because she chose the wrong side, she was forced to leave the abyss and was exiled to the lower-level Dark Spirit Realm. Knowing that she could no longer revitalize her race, Queen Medusa shed tears of sorrow.
[Level: 200, wearable when reaching level 200 or Intelligence 800 and above.]
[Attributes: +1000 HP, +600 Intelligence, +150 Magic Resistance, +150 Physical Resistance, +20% True Damage.]
[Attached Skill: Soul Rip (Advanced), Queen Medusa's famous skill. When released, it can temporarily disturb the minds of all enemies within 500 yards, making the enemies lose their ability to fight for two minutes. If the skill is used on a boss or regular monster below this level, it can control them to fight for the user for 30 minutes. Cooldown: Three hours.]
With a bang, the place instantly exploded into chaos.
The exaggerated attributes of Medusa's Tears made the players dizzy.
Even those in the second-floor booths went completely wild.
They had only one thought in mind now, they must win this beautiful, irreplaceable necklace, no matter the cost.
Equipment of this caliber could make a guild's strength leap qualitatively.
Just as the players were barely calming their excitement, Isabella gave a light smile and revealed the information of the final item:
[Serpent King's Blade (Legendary Weapon)]: The inherited weapon of the Medusa race. The legendary first Queen Medusa's spine bone was used to make it, and it has since become the symbol of each generation of Medusa Queens.]
[Level: 200, usable when reaching level 200 or Speed 1000 and above.]
[Attributes: +500 Speed, +300 Stamina, +450 Attack, +25% Armor Penetration.]
[Attached Skill 1: Fang of the Giant Serpent (Passive), the weapon comes with a strong poison effect. Each attack hit can cause 250 points of severe bleeding per second, lasting for 30 seconds, and cannot be removed.]
[Attached Skill 2: Ultimate Petrification (Advanced), each attack hit on the enemy will cause a rapid petrification effect. The speed of petrification spread will decrease successively according to the enemy's resistance. During petrification, Defense is reduced by 80%, and Armor Penetration is increased by 40%.]
Below the stage, it was practically pandemonium.
Particularly for the Elves and Demon players.
These two races are known for producing assassins, and the Serpent King's Blade is best suited for the assassin class.
On the second floor in the booths, the leaders of the top guilds from around the world stood up, their gazes blazing, fixed intently on the screen above the stage.
These included Blue Sea, the leader of Blue Sea Guild...
Adam, the leader of Genesis Guild...
The leader of Black Rose Guild,
The leader of Silent Ones Guild,
And the leader of Cycle Guild...
All the leaders of the world's top 10 guilds had risen to their feet!
