I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1674 The Plan To Secure What Hye Wants

?

Hye didn't take part in the auction again out of his curiosity. Every time he got itchy to do so, he'd scratch his forehead and get reminded by what he suffered thanks to being curious.

"He is bidding again!"

Just when the turn of this staff came, Hye didn't hesitate to start raising the price by three folds at the beginning. The initial price of this staff was equivalent to three hundred million of his normal bones. So, he raised it to reach nine hundred million, enough to scare most but not everyone.

"We won't let him have it this time. He made my friend and my race look bad!"

"I'm joining this time, and this staff will be mine!"

"I'll join to pour fuel in the flames and watch the show, hahahaha!"

Three different groups of people started to join the bidding this time. Each had their own motives, and the earliest to give up were the ones who wanted this staff.

The price rose up in just ten minutes to exceed four billion bones! That was indeed scary, the same price Hye let that Hescos member fall in his trap with. But this time, neither Hye, nor the ones who wanted to see more fighting, or the ones who belonged to the Hescos race or their allies stopped raising the bid.

Hye knew this staff would be sold at a scary price. So, he didn't flinch back and raised the bid over five billion bones in one go. The moment he did so, the ones wanting to breathe fire and watch it spread stopped out of panic.

They feared to end up the same as what happened with the Hescos members. So most of the bidders stopped, and only three continued.

Ironically, one of them belonged to the Hescos race. The other two belonged to the Hiant and the Scorchers races. The lady handling the auction had to stop it for a few minutes when it reached the six billion mark. She asked the Hescos race member to pay in advance a deposit, to not repeat the unfortunate event that happened before.

That member felt humiliation, but the moment he thought about Hye having it, he decided to pay the deposit.

"Let's continue," the sexy lady beamed with a bright smile, and then the bidding war continued.

After reaching the seven billion mark, only Hye and that stubborn Hescos race member continued to battle. When the price reached eight billion, the sexy lady had to stop the auction again and ask for another deposit. Yet this time he didn't comply, ending up with Hye winning the bid with eight billion.

"Phew! That was interesting," Hye wiped nonexistent beads of sweat over his forehead, "it seemed these folks think I got a low amount of bones. My absence in bidding made them think this way…"

The staff ended up in his inventory after paying such a scary price. Yet he wasn't even thinking about it right now. All he was thinking about was how to prepare the stage for his most desired item, the Crystal Heart.

He could tell that the moment he took part in the last bidding and things went different. He watched lots of auctions happening, and nothing like this happened before.

That meant his participation stirred up more to take part and mud the waters. Hye took out the staff and started to examine it thoroughly, while deciding to take part in more auctions from now on.

Like this, many would get screwed up by him, or he'd win lots of biddings, ending up forming a scary image of how wealthy he was.

If the former happened, then he'd just make more examples out of people like that Hescos race member. And if the latter occurred, then he'd end up having lots of items.

He didn't intend on using any item without enough explanation. Anything that came from the other universe would be frozen inside his inventory for a long time, until he'd figure out what this egg was for.

As he decided that, he started to show up from time to time in the next auctions. At first, his appearance stirred more people to do the same. And that ended up with many troublemakers having either to pay huge part of their wealth to keep their faces or get expelled from the auction and would never return.

Gradually the image of Hye started to grow scary and become more mysterious. In the later biddings, not many joined, and only those interested in the items sold tried out their luck, all ended up failing for Hye's sake.

The latter spent close to fifty billion bones on many items during the next few days, shocking not only those who knew little about him, but also those who watched him a long time ago fighting in his apocalypse.

His allies and enemies were stupefied by what he did. And yet Hye seemed to not show any sign of slowing down. He kept appearing every ten items, buying one in a striking manner, before entering to silence for nine more items and do it again.

This started to become a pattern, and everyone watching this realised that Hye was just toying, playing as a kid, without even being concerned with any of the items he bought.

This just didn't help him avoid a hectic battle over the Crystal Heart, but it also helped in shielding his honest interest in this item. He paid huge wealth indeed but gained lots of items in return.

He bought many artefacts, varying from those which could be used by a single person to those who'd affect a large area of land and forces. He bought things no one knew anything about, things that everyone wanted, and even common things as well.

He didn't show a fixed pattern to anything he wanted to purchase, fooling everyone during the remaining days of the auction, without exposing his real interest or anything.

If they got any of this, then they knew how scarily wealthy this human was.
