Virus King - Chapter 244

Chapter 244: In-Group Auction! Auctioning S-Rank Bloodline!

TL: YYang

[Heir to the Five-Strike Lightning Whip: Brothers, Lord Bai is simply too awesome. You should have seen him in the Demon-Sealing Pagoda…]

[Shui Chuan: Most of us, except for the Sword Immortal and Old Dream, were in the Demon-Sealing Pagoda. Who are you hinting at with that comment?]

[Crow: Damn it! Really damn it!]

[Group’s Only Trash: Damn it! Really damn it!]

[Overlord: Stop the nonsense, let’s get to business. Weren’t we supposed to auction the items now? Hurry up!]

Indeed, an auction! This event hadn’t taken place in Group Chat No. 001 for quite some time. Initially, during the early days of the apocalypse, Chen Bai had thrown out some useless trinkets. Later, everyone had their own opportunities, and although there were some useless items, the auction format hadn’t appeared for a while.

However, this trip to the Demon-Sealing Pagoda clearly yielded items that many were interested in. If Chen Bai wanted them, as the greatest contributor to the Demon-Sealing Pagoda expedition, they would undoubtedly be his. Yet, Lord Bai didn’t want any of them, so dividing these items became a top priority for everyone.

In fact, it was indeed the case. All items were entrusted to Chang Liu, and no one in Group Chat No. 001 worried about him pocketing them. Only a fool would abandon the platform of Group Chat No. 001 for these transitional equipment skills. Within this group, the majority had seen unimaginable improvements and benefits.

Chang Liu, naturally not being foolish, waited until no one was chatting idly in the group before posting a screenshot. The first item was a major highlight. It was none other than that special skill book, the Bull Demon Blood Surge Technique!

[Crow: Wow, such a top-tier low-level skill?!]

[Overlord: Non-essential personnel, stay out of this. 10 gold coins!]

As the apocalypse progressed, the number of dungeon raids increased, and the currency drops from high-level dungeon bosses also increased. Most evolvers naturally had some spare money. Of course, even so, 10 gold coins were an unimaginable amount for most evolvers. But in the unique auction of Group Chat No. 001, it was clearly just a starting bid.

[Crow: 15 gold coins!]

[Heir to the Five-Strike Lightning Whip: Why do you keep interrupting? Have you found your profession transfer scroll? Get lost! 17 gold coins!]

[Crow: It’s not like the auction is restricted to certain people. We haven’t transferred professions or gone to Mount Shu yet, but we haven’t been kicked out of the group, so we naturally have the right to bid! 20 gold coins!]

[True False Illusion: Fellow Crow’s words make sense… 25 gold coins!]

[Group’s Only Trash: Hehe, since Big Crow can participate, I want to join too! 30 gold coins!]

Instantly, the ‘God-King’ elevated the group’s auction to an unimaginable level!

[Overlord: Damn? Do you have any humanity left?! If you make random bids, I’ll request Old Dream and Lord Bai to mute you, strictly prohibiting participation in group activities!]

Chen Bai was watching silently. One item after another went up for auction, and eventually, the Bull Demon Blood Surge Technique was indeed won by the God-King! It cost a whopping 260 gold coins! Yes, 260 gold coins! Even Han Xiao, who had shares in the Nightmare-level dungeon ‘Red Star Psychiatric Hospital,’ and Crow were stunned by this huge sum!

However, what happened next left everyone speechless. The Serpentine Armor was acquired by the ‘God-King’ for 145 gold coins.

Then, the Peng Feather Boots were also acquired by the ‘God-King’ for 160 gold coins.

…

A total of five pieces of equipment were auctioned, except for the Tiger Tail Whip, which was intimidated by Ma Er’s so-called threatening words. The rest were all directly packed up by this guy. This left all the members who participated in the Mount Shu Demon-Sealing Pagoda expedition staring at each other in disbelief.

Where did this guy get so many gold coins!?

Chen Bai indeed had a lot of gold coins, and few could compare to his wealth.

The issue was that Chen Bai was among the first to clear the secret realm dungeons, reaping significant early rewards! Additionally, with White Emperor City in place, there were substantial daily dividends. However, this guy spent like a thousand gold coins on equipment—where did the money come from!?

Moreover, due to his participation, the auction left the group members completely stunned. Chen Bai racked his brain, trying to recall if he had ever heard of this person, who initially boasted of having an A-Rank talent and claimed to be the most powerful, in his previous life. In the God and Devil Trial Grounds, anything could appear, including talent skills and items that could influence wealth.

Finding out this guy’s background was simple and easy. Chen Bai watched the rest of the group members, who were currently criticizing the God-King, and smiled slightly.

[Bai: It seems you’re missing a grand finale item for the auction. As the group leader of Group Chat No. 001, I can provide you with another auction item!]

[Overlord: Lord Bai, I feel like no matter what you bring out, this guy will buy it. Where is he getting the money from?!]

[Group’s Only Trash: Hehehe! Please forgive me, esteemed members…]

[Your Han King: Lord Bai, what are you offering as the trump card? Can I sell myself!]

[Yezi: Sell myself +1, I just woke up and missed the group activity and meeting Lord Bai, damn it, I’m so mad I’m deducting water points!]

Chen Bai directly posted a screenshot of an item!

[Bai: Let’s auction this!]

…

[Pureblood Demon Bloodline (S-Rank)]

[Demon Bloodline, a unique power bestowed by the Abyss. Any transformed Abyssal creature possesses a demon bloodline! However, only true pureblood demons have the powerful strength of Abyssal demons!]

[Usage Requirement: No other bloodline power present!]

…

The screenshot was extremely clear in the group, but in just an instant, the previously noisy group chat became even more chaotic. Everyone turned into a chorus of repeated exclamations!

[Overlord: WTF?!]

[Your Han King: WTF?!]

[…]

A uniform chorus of “WTF” flooded the chat! The item before them had exceeded everyone’s imagination, leaving them completely stunned. Over time, everyone understood what S-Rank and above represented! Yet now, Lord Bai had brought out an S-Rank bloodline?

Chen Bai also smiled, curious to see how this mysterious and enigmatic God-King would bid on this item!
