Killing monsters with a 100% explosion rate, are you luckier than me?

Chapter 1781 Entering the Scene One After Another!

Zu Long gasped, "That's too much! Even if you had a hundred trillion, you can't spend it all. You still need to keep some working capital."

Kurosawa frowned as well: "Indeed, we have to make some trade-offs."

Ye Chuyun pondered for a moment and began to adjust the priorities:

"We must obtain the Primal Rune Crystal; this is the bottom line."

"The World Tree saplings are too expensive, and there will definitely be many bidders. We may not be able to win the bid, so we'll just put them on the waiting list. If the price exceeds 35 trillion, we'll give up."

"We must make the most of the hourglass of time; it's very important for Kurosawa-senpai."

"We must also strive for the space lock, as it is related to the future security of the base."

"As for the materials, select the ten most urgently needed ones, and temporarily abandon the others."

After readjustment, the total demand amount was reduced to forty to fifty trillion, which is within an acceptable range.

"Next is the bidding strategy." Ye Chuyun looked at Bai Chen. "Butler Bai, you are experienced, what suggestions do you have?"

Bai Chen listened quietly the whole time, and his expression didn't change when he heard that the other party had access to a staggering 100 trillion in funds.

He only spoke when Ye Chuyun asked him a question: "Lord Ye, based on my experience, the first half of an auction is usually the warm-up phase, where the value of the auction items is relatively low and the competition is not too fierce."

"At this time, it is appropriate to make a move and bid for some treasures whose value is underestimated."

"From the middle stage onwards, the real climax begins, and the competition becomes fierce. At this point, you need to stay calm, not let the atmosphere sway you, and strictly adhere to your budget when bidding."

"The second half is the battle for the final treasure, which often results in astronomical prices. At this point, financial resources will become the decisive factor."

"In addition, I suggest using a deceptive tactic. When bidding on some less important treasures, we can deliberately raise the price to keep our competitors from figuring out our true target."

"This means that when bidding for key treasures, they may have to give up due to insufficient funds or misjudgment."

Ye Chuyun nodded: "That makes sense, let's do it that way."

Then, remembering something, he asked, "Butler Bai, you mentioned before that you would provide an analysis report of the bidding opponents. Could I take a look at it now?"

"Of course." Bai Chen took out a jade slip from his bosom.

"This is a preliminary report, which includes information on the main known competitors. I will update it as needed once the auction begins."

Ye Chuyun quickly browsed through the information.

The report lists more than twenty major competitors, each with information such as financial strength assessment, potential targets, and bidding habits.

The one ranked first was none other than Shang Wuhen.

The financial resources are estimated to be over 30 trillion, and it cannot be ruled out that they will ask the forces behind them for additional funds, so the conservative estimate is 50 trillion.

Objective: To acquire multiple commercial treasures and fragments of innate spiritual treasures.

The second is Xinghe Daoren.

The estimated financial resources are around 25 trillion, and it cannot be ruled out that additional funds may be provided by the forces behind the scenes.

Target: Star-type treasures.

Third is Elder Fu, from the Ancient Realm of Runes.

The financial resources are unknown, but based on the forces behind them, a conservative estimate is twenty trillion.

Objective: Primal Rune Crystals and various rune treasures.

Upon seeing that the old man Fu actually came from the Ancient World of Runes, Ye Chuyun narrowed her eyes.

Could it be that the Primordial Rune Crystal was sold by this old man with the runes?

But if that's the case, then it's somewhat contradictory.

After all, his target was clearly the Primal Rune Crystal.

Sold and then bought back?

What kind of crazy move is this...?

"Butler Bai, do you have any more detailed information about Elder Fu?"

Bai Chen shook his head: "It's a pity. The Ancient Rune Realm has always been mysterious, and this old man of runes lives a very secluded life and rarely appears in public."

"All we know is that he is a Nirvana Realm expert, skilled in the Way of Runes, and with unfathomable wealth. This auction of the Primordial Rune Crystal is very likely his doing."

Ye Chuyun seemed to be deep in thought.

If Old Man Fu is the seller, then that's fine.

But if it's the buyer, then it's troublesome.

A Nirvana Realm expert would definitely not be weak in terms of wealth.

"It seems the competition for the Primal Rune Crystals is even fiercer than expected," Ye Chuyun said in a deep voice.

Zu Long patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, kid Ye."

"You have money and power, what are you afraid of?"

"If we can't get it filmed, we'll think of another way."

Kurosawa also said, "That's right, auctions are just one way to acquire treasures, not the only one."

Ye Chuyun nodded, feeling somewhat relieved.

Indeed, even if he couldn't capture the Primal Rune Crystal, he had other methods.

For example, you could exchange those three miraculous pill formulas, or go find other alternative materials.

But it would be best to take a picture of it.

"Alright, the strategy is settled." Ye Chuyun put away the jade slip.

"We'll rest here for the next few hours and recharge."

"Butler Bai, could you please prepare some food?"

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away." Bai Chen bowed and withdrew.

Only Ye Chuyun, Zu Long, and Hei Ze remained in the private room.

Emperor Zulong leaned back in his armchair, closing his eyes to rest.

Kurosawa walked to the bookshelf and began browsing the books on it.

Ye Chuyun walked to the crystal wall, looking down at the increasingly lively auction hall, her mind filled with many thoughts.

.....

Time slipped away quietly as we waited.

Inside the No. 1 VIP box, Ye Chuyun, Zulong, and Heize sat quietly, conserving their energy for the upcoming auction.

Bai Chen was busy at the table to the side, occasionally compiling new intelligence into a booklet and sending it to Ye Chuyun.

Through the crystal wall, you can see the auction hall below filling up at an astonishing speed.

Initially, it was the ordinary seats at the bottom that were worth millions, where independent individuals and representatives of small forces from various worlds took their seats.

Most of them had relatively weak breathing, and many of them had a look of tension and anticipation on their faces.

For them, even if this auction was just an eye-opener, it would be enough to brag about for a while when they got back.

Next, the lights came on in the private rooms on the second to fifth floors.

These private rooms range in price from tens of millions to hundreds of millions, and the guests are mostly representatives of medium-sized forces from various worlds.

They were dressed in uniform, accompanied by guards and attendants, and appeared relatively calm.

These people have specific bidding targets, but with limited budgets, they can only focus their efforts on a few specific treasures.

The sixth to eighth floors were the truly powerful areas. As the lights in these private rooms came on one by one, the atmosphere in the entire auction hall became heavy.

"The lights are on in the sixth-floor, Zhouzi No. 1 VIP room. It's people from the Tianwu World."

"The number 3 on the seventh floor, marked by the character 'Hong,' has also lit up. That's the symbol of the alchemy world. They're famous for their alchemy skills, and this time they're probably going to sweep all the elixir-related auction items."

"The people from the Seventh Desolate Weapon God Sect on the eighth floor have also arrived. They are the leading figures in the weapon refining world."

The whispers could be faintly heard through the crystal wall.
