The sudden realization hit all of the people in the auction when Adrian only said 10 Mana. The sudden silence that the room has been hit suddenly turned into ravaging bids. The bids came one after the other as if a raging tide swept across the room. Piggy Bank, who saw this shuddered in delight and in awe of Adrian, is in total amazement of Adrian's tactic in getting the heart of the buyers.
It did not take long for the bids to go into the 2500 gold range. The bids slowly crept up until the buyer has finally been decided. The other bidders gave up as they could just commission such a thing from the Avalon territory, but they would be getting it at a later date.
"Going once… going twice… Sold to the Dwarven Kingdom Delegation for 3,150 gold coins!" The announcer stated as the last one to give a bid was them.
The announcer could not believe that he was able to sell such a thing at such a price. He thanked the gods that such a price was set because he will get a commission based on the price of his sales. He fought tooth and claw against other announcers for his prestigious spot.
The Dwarven Kingdom Delegation fought hard for this rune stone because they like to mine in tunnels that are underground. Although dwarves can slightly see in the dark, that does not mean they can totally see in the dark. The Sparkling Light Rune Stone would be the most beneficial thing that they can use to minimize attacks from monsters and illuminate the tunnels."For the next rune stone which is the Dark Veil Rune Stone. For this rune stone, the starting price would be 1,000 gold coins with an increment of 50 gold coins per bid. I will now demonstrate the effects of the rune stone." The announcer stated as he inserted mana into the rune stone.
A cloak of darkness suddenly swallowed the announcer and he vanished from his spot. The eyes, ears and smell of the people were deceived as he suddenly vanished from his spot. The announcer returned to becoming visible after three seconds with the rune stone in his hand. The rune stone is great, but it was not as popular as the Sparkling Light Rune Stone.
"Going once… going twice… Sold to the Anonymous Bidder number 10 for 2,000 gold coins!" The announcer stated as the last one to give a bid was them.
The players were naturally envious of the player that got the winning bid, but they did not see the value in that stone. They did not see the value at that time, but it was actually a great rune stone that managed to protect and let another Explorer player rise into stardom. That story was into the far future though.
The auction continued as some products for other countries were also presented as they wanted to sell their products. Some products were a great hit while some only got moderate attention. The announcer then started to present the next item that are a signature of Avalon.
"Although this bidding part is reserved for only citizens of Avalon, the guests from other countries can just enjoy the show. As the Merchant Guild, we presented six showrooms to all the people for the past few days. These are called Pocket Dimension Homes.
A special space where one could change even the scenery and it can also expand. This is only available to citizens of this territory though which some of our bidders have been waiting for. This bid will be available to all citizens of Avalon.The price for a Pocket Dimension Home is one thousand gold coin with an increment of ten gold per bid. It seems some of our patrons are worried. Do not be because we are implementing a strict rule that only one can be purchased per person.
The lord of this territory generously told us that he would be auctioning off 5,000 Pocket Dimension Homes. This will be a simultaneous bidding of 5,000 units. The time limit is one minute for bids before closing. The largest bid for that pocket dimension home would receive it after a minute. You may now start." The announcer stated as all beings in Avalon started to bid for their life.
Adrian did not think that all of the Pocket Dimension Homes would be sold easily but he underestimated a player's fantasy. The moment he showcased the showroom, a lot of people started to grind for gold coins. All 5,000 units immediately got a starting bid and the fierce competition ended in one minute.
Adrian also knew how many participants got into the bidding and he was astounded that it was a number of fifty thousand. He really underestimated real estate even if it is for an online game. He suddenly felt a bit bad for those that did not get one which is why he told Piggy Bank the news.
"Patrons that are citizens of Avalon! The territory lord saw your enthusiasm to own a Pocket Dimension Home which is why he is willing to give out the remaining 3,000 units for auction. Same rules and price stands. Please start." The announcer stated which burned the passion of those that really wanted one.
The effect was so powerful that some starting bids immediately went for 2,000 gold coins right off the bat. The fierce battle for a special home in Avalon started and it either resulted in cheers or drowning in the tears of sorrow. After the auction for the Pocket Dimension Homes, another round of items was sold.
"We have finally entered the last phase of our auction. For the last three items, each of them will be shown individually as these are the most prestigious items presented in our auction. All three were given by residents of Avalon but only two of the were created here. The last one could still be mentioned as created but I will leave that to your discretion." The announcer stated as the first item was presented.
