Chapter 195 It’s worth it
One of the fifty skills of a good sharp sword, Kari Hai! !
The appearance of the first auction item immediately ignited the whole audience.
As the dazzling light of the spotlights hit the knife in the long glass box, everyone's eyes burst out with greedy light, ready to make a move.
Many of those who practiced swordsmanship had extremely fiery eyes, and even wished they could rush up to the stage and snatch the sword away.
Under the illumination of the spotlight, this famous sword named "Karikai" shimmered with a faint edge, and the blade showed a silvery white luster.
The auctioneer in a black tuxedo seemed to be very satisfied with the reaction of the guests present, and his impassioned voice spread through the microphone:
"This "Hunting the Sea" is a famous weapon that took ten years to be built by famous craftsmen in the South China Sea. It once exerted the fierce power of "breaking the sea with one sword" in the hands of a swordsman. It is famous for its reputation as "Hunting the Sea" Get the name 'Karikai'."
"The blade of this knife is at least 30% heavier than the average Liang Kuai Dao, so it can significantly increase the power of cutting... As for the 'Kari Hai' itself, which is ranked among the 50 most valuable Liang Kuai Dao, I believe I don't need to say more. said."
"Then let's not talk nonsense. The starting price of this auction item is..."
The auctioneer raised his hands dramatically, his movements slightly exaggerated:
"One hundred million Baileys!!"
The moment he finished speaking, there was a pirate in the audience who looked like a samurai ronin with a long sword on his waist. He suddenly stood up and made a bid with burning eyes:
"I offer 120 million beli!!"
"Hahahaha!! 'Decapitator' Kenshin, this sword can't be your turn!!"
A low, ferocious laughter then came from the other direction.
It was a bald man with a huge ax on his back. He was as big as a giant bear and exuded the smell of strong blood.
"I offer 130 million beli!!"
He stared at the man dressed as a ronin with evil eyes, looking tit for tat.
"Barbarian Bear, what do you want to do!? You are not a swordsman!!"
The ronin named Kenshin gritted his teeth.
The wild bear tsked and sneered:
"So? I have many swordsmen under my command."
Seeing this scene, others knew at a glance that these two guys probably had some grudge.
…
The bidding below continues.
In the luxury box on the top floor, Seng Guo chewed on two lit cigars and puffed away, filling the whole room with thick smoke.
"It is indeed a very good famous knife."
He glanced at the good and sharp knife "Hunting Hai" and sighed.
A good and quick sword with fifty skills can already be regarded as one of the "famous swords" in this sea.
After all, the "Twelve Skills of the Supreme Sharp Sword" and the "Twenty-one Skills of the Great Sharp Sword" above this level are too rare, and most of them have fallen into the hands of the strong.
For example, the "Kimhira" he found as a birthday present for Gion was among the "Twenty-One Great Sharp Swords".
But even the ranks of "Great Swordsmen" required Warring States, a high-ranking naval admiral, to spend a lot of time and connections to finally succeed.
This shows how precious and rare famous swords are in this sea.
And now at the auction of Lou Field, the "King of Loan Sharks", the first item to be auctioned turned out to be a good and sharp knife for fifty cents!
As we all know, in an auction like this, generally the items placed at the front are of relatively lower value.
It is common sense that the further the auction goes, the more valuable the final auction item will be.
This made Warring States lament that the resources controlled by the underground world were indeed extremely huge.
"But I always feel that the asking price is a bit high. Even for good sharp knives, the price is generally around 100 million beli at most..."
Warring States couldn't help but shook his head when he heard that the bid below had already reached 150 million beli.
In particular, the competition between the Ronin and the giant bear man has gone beyond the scope of bidding, and has derived into old and new hatreds, which obviously aroused anger.
"Pirates are really a bunch of impulsive, stupid guys..."
Warring States shook his head disapprovingly.
"I offer 200 million beli."
A calm voice suddenly sounded.
Warring States:? ? ?
He turned his head in confusion and stared at Darren who was bidding leisurely.
"The VIP in box 3A bids 200 million beli!!"
When the auctioneer heard the bid, he was shocked, laughed and shouted.
"This guest is indeed our distinguished guest! He is so generous!!"
The noisy auction venue suddenly became quiet.
The guests at the auction were stunned on the spot, their faces full of disbelief.
Especially the two people, Barbarian Bear and Kenshin, who were fighting, immediately lost their temper and stood there blankly, looking confused.
No, has anyone offered you such a price?
They couldn't help but look up at the luxury box labeled 3A, and couldn't help but feel curious about this person's identity.
Everyone raises the price by several million to ten million... Why do you directly add 50 million Baileys! ?
You look great! ?
In the luxury box.
"You brat, are you crazy!? That's just a good sharp knife! It's not a big sharp knife with twenty skills!!"
Warring States grabbed Darren by the collar and looked extremely crazy:
"200 million beli!! What can you do with 200 million beli!"
"This knife is not worth 200 million beli!!"
However, in the face of Warring States' madness, Darren said calmly:
"It's only 200 million beli. I think it's very reasonable."
The Warring States Period was like being struck by lightning.
Two hundred million beli...just...
His mind was spinning rapidly at this moment, frantically calculating what 200 million beli could do.
Build two warships, or equip two hundred navy elite weapons, or even pay for 2,000 navy soldiers...
"But you clearly don't know how to use a sword!!"
Sengoku almost broke his teeth.
Darren smiled and said:
"Collecting famous swords is my hobby."
A sharp edge flashed in his eyes.
This "Hunting Sea" has a "heavy" attribute and can increase the strength of the slash. Darren values this very much.
His own magnetic sword control has become more and more proficient. Although Yama's power is powerful, the consumption of domineering energy is too huge.
If you have another good knife as a substitute, your tactics may be more flexible.
And the most important thing is that a Yama is actually not enough to meet the needs of a large-scale battlefield.
If possible, Darren would like to collect more famous swords.
A "blade array" composed of multiple, even dozens or hundreds of famous knives turns into a rain of swords. It is definitely an extremely terrifying weapon on a large-scale battlefield.
Even if it is not wrapped with domineering energy, with the sharpness and cutting properties of the famous sword itself, driven by the magnetic field, the power is many times stronger than ordinary artillery.
As for the price issue?
What a joke, Darren, who obtained the treasure of Sky Island Golden Land, is now so poor that all he has left is money.
There is simply no way to spend it all.
Not to mention, collecting famous swords is a great pleasure in itself.
This has nothing to do with the value of the item itself.
There are only 50 out-of-print weapons in the world, so no money is too much.
As for the wealth he owns, 200 million Baileys is just a drop in the bucket.
Well worth it.
