Chapter 474: 252 Sudden Accident! _2
Different species of Guardian Beasts all had their distinctive habits and features.
For example, a Serpent Beast could lose its will to fight when facing a powerful enemy, but when against an equally matched opponent, it would become extremely ferocious.
This trait made Serpent Beasts the favorites of many major clubs.
Each club’s main team always included a member who had a good understanding of Serpent Beasts.
Because the strengths of club members and their beasts were relatively matched, Serpent Beasts had the racial ability to subtly enhance their combat power.
However, the fact that they can lose their will to fight when facing strong enemies, made Serpent Beasts unsuited for outdoor adventures.
Yet, this Silver-Blue Mystical Snake, when facing the four clearly more formidable Iron Arm Baboons, displayed the posture of a predator.
This might have been related to the faint Dragon Bloodline that the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake possessed.
Even if this Silver-Blue Mystical Snake couldn’t ultimately transform into a Dragon, the trace of Dragon Bloodline could allow the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake to have the advantage of its Serpent Beast traits, while discarding the disadvantage of losing heart when facing strong foes.
Master Lu Zhong had already given a detailed explanation about the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake, and there was no need for Lu Xiaoyin to repeat it.
“I believe everyone is already aware of the information about the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake. It was bid at a price of 2.48 billion during the silent auction!”
“You can now bid freely. The minimum bid increase must not be less than 10 million!”
Lu Xiaoyin had barely finished speaking when She Junjie immediately raised the bid.
He pushed the price of the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake directly from 2.48 billion to 2.5 billion.
Wu Ge followed closely with another increased bid, and Gao Hongying, He Kuan, Zhao Junwei also kept up.
In no time, the price of the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake was brought up to a high of 2.83 billion.
This price had already exceeded Fang Mu’s expectations.
Cultivating a Guardian Beast like the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake was incredibly easy for Fang Mu.
But it had brought Fang Mu extremely high returns.
After this, Fang Mu could make a fortune just selling Guardian Beasts similar to the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake.
More importantly, no matter who ended up purchasing this Silver-Blue Mystical Snake, they would essentially be helping Fang Mu to cultivate Beasts.
Through the Blood of Abundance, even if the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake was contracted by someone else in the future,
Fang Mu would retain control over it.
Exporting beasts created through the unique feature of the Blood of Abundance – the “Creation of Blood and Life”, not only helped Fang Mu accumulate resources,
But also had a certain strategic significance at key moments.
This was like increasing the military power Fang Mu had at his disposal in a unique way.
Thinking of this, a term suddenly sprang into Fang Mu’s mind – the mother of all things!
Hastily shaking the thought, Fang Mu couldn’t help but wonder when he started to have such thoughts.
This totally contradicted his image as a scientific researcher in his previous life.
Fang Mu quickly expelled this sudden term from his mind.
At this point, the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake’s price had been pushed up to a whole 3.1 billion.
Faced with such high prices, all major forces stopped recklessly increasing their bids.
In the end, the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake was taken by He Kuan, the Family Head of the He family of Ludu.
As it happened, He Kuan had a good affinity for Serpent Beasts and could directly contract the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake after acquiring it.
Because of this, He Kuan desired the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake far more eagerly than other families.
When the bidding reached 3.1 billion, He Kuan, with his understanding of the other family heads of Ludu, most likely would no longer compete with him.
Continuing to compete might just seem like throwing money around.
Moreover, Fang Mu had already clearly shown that he was willing to give all the major forces an equal opportunity to interact with him.
Rather than continuing to increase the price to interact with Fang Mu through auctions,
Why not spend a few hundred million Dragon Rising Coins on abundance of supplies to curry favor with Fang Mu?
These two practices were of a completely different nature.
He Kuan recalled that Master Lu Zhong had also wanted to compete for the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake, and he was worried that Master Lu Zhong would increase the price.
To Master Lu Zhong, 3.1 billion Dragon Rising Coins were not a big deal at all.
His intention to curry favor with Fang Mu was essentially about obtaining a channel to access the resources of a Master-Level Maker.
Given that both of them were after the same thing, He Kuan did not want to offend Master Lu Zhong.
Moreover, Master Lu Zhong was not someone with a good temper.
If he and Master Lu Zhong fought over price, Master Lu Zhong would definitely not trade even a single resource of a Maker with him in the future.
In the past, many forces had offended Master Lu Zhong and suffered his retaliation as a result.
Dealing with such a bad-tempered and petty person required extra caution.
In the end, He Kuan did not have to wait for Master Lu Zhong’s price, and took the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake at a high price of 3.1 billion Dragon Rising Coins.
Master Lu Zhong looked regretfully at the Silver-Blue Mystical Snake, which had fallen into He Kuan’s hands.
It wasn’t that Master Lu Zhong didn’t want to increase the price, but because he was now essentially Fang Mu’s servant.
Even though Fang Mu hadn’t given him a final answer yet, Master Lu Zhong knew he had to get his attitude right.
At present, the best way to show this was to act like a servant.
This prohibited him from reallocating the resources he currently held.
