Chapter 370 Chapter369-The Reappearance of the Epic-tier Silver Tear
While Mars Guild could be considered a first-tier force in terms of power and size, it paled in comparison to the top ten global guilds. Starcatcher didn\'t have the courage to openly provoke Snowla. He knew very well that with Snowla\'s fiery temperament, if he didn\'t back down, she might indeed use this as an opportunity to initiate a Guild Battle, which would be a costly affair.
With a dark expression, Starcatcher raised his hand to signal his withdrawal from the bidding. In the end, Dirge successfully acquired the Bow of Storm for an impressive price of one hundred and five thousand gold coins. She turned and gave Snowla on the second floor a grateful smile.
On stage, Isabella continued with a smile, introducing the next auction item. "Next up for auction is something I believe everyone is familiar with - the epic-tier Silver Tear!"
As she spoke, she gestured towards a table beside her. "During our first auction, a mysterious alchemy master consigned this item, sparking a fierce bidding war among many players, including the guild leaders of two of the top ten global guilds, Mr. Blue Sea and Adam. This Silver Tear is different from what our Silverglow Silver Guild produces. It has been refined to a much purer degree. You can see the specific attributes for yourselves."
The screen timely displayed the attributes of the Silver Tear.
[Silver Tear (Epic-tier): A tear from the Silver Church, said to be the dew bestowed by the Silver Angel, extremely precious. This Tear has been refined from one hundred drops of exquisite holy dew. Applying a single drop on the forehead temporarily increases divine power and intelligence by 100% (lasting 12 hours), with an additional experience gain of +100000%.]
[Additional Effect: Highly treasured, imbued with a certain divinity of the Silver Angel, each drop can instantly annihilate Undead creatures below level 100.]
The players below were already going wild. Compared to their first encounter with the epic-tier Silver Tear, they were no longer focused on the instant kill effect against lower-level Undead creatures. Most players had already surpassed level 100, deeming such creatures beneath their notice. However, the epic-tier Silver Tear held another incredibly powerful effect that was highly coveted by players of all levels - a 100000% experience gain for 12 hours.
No one could refuse an item that offered such a rapid level-up opportunity. In any game, leveling up is always the fundamental basis for increasing one\'s strength. A powerful weapon or equipment might allow a player to challenge an opponent ten levels higher, but it could never bridge a gap of more than twenty levels.
"Miss Isabella, you don\'t need to introduce so much, we are already familiar with the properties of the epic-tier Silver Tear. Just go ahead with the price!"
"This is a great item. I missed the chance last time, but I won\'t let it slip away today!"
"I wonder if those big shots in the second-floor booths will compete with us this time?"
"They probably won\'t pass it up, considering it\'s also a great help to them!"
"Then we\'re doomed. No matter how rich we are, we can\'t match those big shots financially!"
"What are you afraid of? Even if it costs me everything, I\'m getting at least two bottles!"
…
The players buzzed with conversation, and in the second-floor booths, the floor-to-ceiling windows opened wide in response to the appearance of the epic-tier Silver Tear. Clearly, the guild leaders of the top ten global guilds were also enticed. It made sense; even if they didn\'t need it personally, with so many members in their guilds, there would definitely be a use for it.
On stage, Isabella smiled subtly and calmly announced, "Everyone, please relax. Today, we have plenty of the epic-tier Silver Tear to go around!" She gestured, and several attendants from Dawn Breeze Auction House brought up a large box. Upon opening it, nearly a hundred transparent glass bottles were revealed, each containing a silvery liquid that shimmered mesmerizingly under the spotlight.
"We have a total of one hundred bottles, each containing ten drops. We will auction them in sets of ten bottles, with each set starting at twenty thousand gold coins. Each bid must be increased by at least five thousand gold coins…"
Isabella\'s charming smile and tempting words drew everyone in.
The players on the first floor went wild. Many began seeking familiar friends nearby, intending to pool their resources for the auction. Typically, the market value of an item decreases as its availability increases. However, this rule didn\'t apply to the epic-tier Silver Tear. With the vast number of players, there would always be demand, regardless of how many were auctioned.
Moreover, the more Silver Tears available, the higher their value became. No one wanted to fall behind in leveling, and missing out on such an item while opponents acquired it could have significant long-term consequences.
To compete with the big shots on the second floor, players on the first floor started banding together. Only by consolidating their resources could they hope to match the financial power of the upper echelons.
Isabella\'s face was full of smiles as she patiently waited for the players to form their alliances. She had ample patience for such behaviors that increased the value of the auction items.
Moments later, seeing that most players were ready, Isabella finally spoke: "We will now start the auction for the first set of epic-tier Silver Tear. Please feel free to place your bids."
No sooner had Isabella finished speaking than an excited voice rang out from the crowd: "I bid twenty-five thousand gold coins!"
With the first bidder\'s offer, a wave of noisy bids followed. Players excitedly raised their hands to bid, knowing that these epic-tier Silver Tears represented their unique chance for rapid leveling, an opportunity that would not come again.
"Thirty thousand gold coins!"
"Thirty-five thousand gold coins!"
…
Each bid sparked even fiercer competition among the players, none willing to back down and each eager to outbid the others.
"Forty thousand gold coins!" a voice suddenly rang out, drawing everyone\'s attention.
Heads turned towards the source of the bid, a young-looking player with the name BlazingStorm above his head. His equipment glimmered with a golden hue, clearly of extraordinary origin. Among the first-floor players, his level was one of the highest, yet no guild emblem adorned his avatar, marking him as a solo player.
Whispers and speculation about BlazingStorm\'s background spread among the players nearby. Some guessed he might be a sudden trust-fund baby with vast wealth, easily capable of affording such high prices. Others thought he might be a lucky player who stumbled upon a fortune in the game, enabling him to compete for the Silver Tear.
Occurrences like these weren\'t uncommon in Godslayer, where many players had risen from obscurity to prominence due to unexpected opportunities. Whatever the speculation, it only increased the intrigue surrounding BlazingStorm.
Of course, BlazingStorm\'s bid was not high enough to deter other bidders; he didn\'t yet have the influence or status to command such attention.
After BlazingStorm, another player announced their bid: "Forty-five thousand gold coins!"
"Fifty thousand gold coins!" BlazingStorm\'s voice rang out again, raising the bid without hesitation, determined to win.
"Fifty-five thousand gold coins!" another player quickly followed, with three competitors now vying in earnest.
More players chose to join the fray, pushing the auction to its climax. The scene at the auction became incredibly heated, with players wholeheartedly joining the bidding, unwilling to let a single bottle of Silver Tear slip away. They were filled with anticipation and desire, hoping to break through their level barriers and become stronger through these epic-tier Silver Tears.
Isabella watched the scene below with a smile, her eyes shining with satisfaction. She knew the outcome of the auction was no longer important; what mattered was the frenzy and yearning that would enhance the auction\'s reputation and fame.
Meanwhile, in the second-floor booths, the guild leaders of the top ten global guilds were also observing the intense bidding below. They were eager to participate but refrained from joining the first round of bidding. For these gaming big shots, competing for the first set of epic-tier Silver Tears wasn\'t necessary; they couldn\'t monopolize everything. Thus, it wasn\'t worth lowering their status to scramble with the first-floor players.
These top guild leaders were patiently waiting for the subsequent sets of epic-tier Silver Tears to be auctioned.
"This auction is really lively. Those players on the first floor are truly going all out," Blue Sea commented, his lips curling into a relaxed and composed smile, chatting with his trusted aide, Seth, standing behind him.
"Guild leader, aren\'t you interested in these Silver Tears this time?" Seth asked respectfully, bowing slightly.
Blue Sea chuckled, "How could I not be? Although we no longer need them for their undead-killing effects, they are still very useful for leveling up. But since Miss Isabella mentioned there are many epic-tier Silver Tears available today, we\'ll hold off for now. See how calm those guys are?"
