Chapter 197 Trade
Chapter 197 Trade
No one immediately offered a trade as Velvet expected. She's even prepared that the item the seller was looking for would not appear here. After all, magic tools or artifacts that can certainly break adamantine require a bit of mana to activate.
Aura Knights, on the other hand, have Aura Techniques that could possibly cut adamantine with their weapon. Unfortunately, even that wasn't allowed. What the seller needed is a weapon that anybody can use.
Then, someone on the balcony at the second level made an offer. It was Number 57 just beside Vincent's area. This is also the first time this person participated in this event.
"I have two vials of corrosive liquids that could melt adamantine quite easily."
Velvet then held the communication crystal and waited for the secret communication from the seller.
After a few moments, Velvet shook her head meaning that the offer wasn't accepted. She then explained.
"It must be a weapon and not consumable items. It seems that this will be used against several golems made of adamantine in a special dungeon. The number of golems was expected to be 20 or so. The user is a Martial Arts Experts and just needed a weapon to deal damage on them…"
Everyone finally understood why they needed such a special weapon.
Perhaps, a weapon also made of adamantine can be used but that would just be equal to the golems… It could possibly destroy two or three adamantine golems if used skillfully but definitely not effective against twenty of them.
Nevertheless, a few people in the VIP rooms still made an offer just in case.
An offer of three precious Adamantine Swords appeared. There's also an offer of using binding formation arts but was rejected as Mana was obviously not working in that dungeon.
There were few random offers and the attendants in every aisle near the bidders already started assisting.
Unfortunately, none of them met the strange requirement of the seller.
It was until Vincent made his move.
After checking his Obsidian Treasure Box for a while, he found several weapons that fit the criteria that Velvet mentioned. One of them was a decent sword that he had almost forgotten by now.
It was the sword given to him by the last member of the Primal Sword Sect's escorts after completing their mission.
It was the Arcane-Forged Primal Sword.
It is a decent sword back then but after acquiring his black mithril sword, he knows that he would no longer have a chance to use this sword even if he regained his eyesight. At most, this sword would just allow him to prove his identity as the sword sect's ally.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to just store it again since he still has memories of his friends at that sect.
Who knows? They might meet again someday.
With that in mind, he pulled out another weapon that has over 600 points in Sharpness Attributes. Its durability had also exceeded 500 points so it's definitely a good item.
It was a knife.
This knife looks nothing special at all and can be found in the Zemin Clan's kitchen. Though it looks darker than the original, everything else looks ordinary. The shape, the weight, and its aura appear very normal.
It doesn't look like a combat weapon but Vincent is confident that it will pass the criteria.
Of course, it wouldn't be him who will offer this trade as he handed it to Yasin after telling him the characteristics of this knife.
The latter understood what was going on as he immediately raised his flag and made his offer to Velvet.
"I have a weapon here that fits the criteria you've mentioned. It can easily cut through adamantine… You can try it using it now to test it… However, I have to remind you that this weapon is weak against magic. It has terrible Magic Resistance so you have to keep it in mind." Yasin said.
As soon as he made this offer, the people who were still haggling with the attendants on every aisle paused for a moment.
After all, Yasin did not offer an alternative solution against the golem similar to what they were doing. He truly has a weapon that can cut through adamantine!
Immediately, a few attendants arrived at their area. They even brought a fist-size ore of adamantine to test the weapon. This only shows that they have truly prepared themselves.
Soon, they tried cutting the ore with the knife Yasin handed over. To their surprise, the knife truly managed to cut through the adamantine so easily!
Even Yasin was actually stunned after seeing this. However, as the "owner" of the weapon, he immediately fixed his emotion as he smiled at the attendants who had their mouths wide open.
"Is that good enough?" He asked.
"Ahh… Wait for a moment, sir…" They then reported their findings to Velvet through a communication crystal.
Velvet nodded in satisfaction as she quickly announced herself on the stage.
"There is already a weapon offered that fits the criteria. This weapon managed to easily cut through an adamantine ore without implementing mana arts at all. Is there anybody else that could provide a better weapon? If not, the Interspatial Ring will be given to the person at Number 56…"
As soon as they heard her words, the people who had been trying to provide alternative resolutions like lending their pet, giving more adamantine swords, or even Skill Manual containing Martial Technique to destroy things with bare hands, have all stopped.
After all, Yasin's offer fits the criteria of the seller perfectly.
They can only shake their heads as the precious ring was brought to Number 56 who had become quite familiar to them already. This man has won a few items after all.
Once the transaction was completed, the 71st item to be traded was shown. It is a Pseudo-Legendary Trident that has the power of lightning. What's even more special about this is that it has the ability to even change the weather into a stormy one once a month… The seller wanted an extremely rare herb ingredient for it in exchange for at least three Pseudo-Legendary Equipment.
Vincent didn't think of participating in this as he allowed the others to win the trident.
The auction continued.
In this part of the auction, only those on the balcony and VIP rooms are offering decent items for trade.
So far, all of them have been traded successfully and found their next owner.
For the 76th item, the Tier 4 Rejuvenation Pill has finally appeared.
This time, Vincent can only hope that the item they were looking for is something he could provide.
