Chapter 1094: Chapter 580: Success and Choices

“Golden Air Patrol Radar, plus 300 strands of Seventh-Order Floating Land Origin.”

“One drop of Seventh-Order Starry Sky Giant Beast Source Blood, plus 50 pieces of Dominant True Spirit.”

…

Amidst the rising and falling bids, eleven out of the twelve private rooms at the top of the auction house hosting Annihilation Starship Captains successively placed their bids.

Clearly, compared to the lower grade silver strategic component earlier, this [Time Crown·Fake] component holds more appeal.

It makes sense, as per the Chigu Luo Family’s description, after this [Time Crown·Fake] component is enhanced to Level 80, it can provide a universal cooldown reduction of up to 60%.

This way, it would significantly reduce the buffer time of those strategic components, further accompanied by two impressive time-related features inherent to the component, making its cost-effectiveness clearly higher.

However, so far, none of the current bids have caught the Luo family’s interest.

In the Song Family’s private room, Song Wujiang’s eyes flickered, somewhat undecided on the subsequent bidding.

Due to the previous acquisition of [Starry Sky’s Intestine], he now possesses two components of the same rank to trade.

[Extreme Desolation Corrosion Cannon] and [Spirit Serpent Space Ring]

Neither the Star-Annihilating Cannon nor the space expansion components are evidently what the Song Family currently needs.

Because the [Dinghai Dragon Steed] and the Tri-Eyed Royal Dominator Flagship each already possess a Golden Star Annihilator Cannon, and Song Chi’s inherent ability to freely travel back and forth the Dragon Spine Continent ensures the family won’t have to worry about logistics issues in the upcoming Civilization Battlefield.

After pondering for a long while, he displayed the attributes panel of the two components and straightforwardly stated:

“[Extreme Desolation Corrosion Cannon] and [Spirit Serpent Space Ring], choose either one, plus 400 strands of Seventh-Order Floating Land Origin.”

After placing his bid, Song Wujiang quietly waited.

In fact, the three of the Song Family were quite tense, compared to several other families, their bid only seemed moderate.

But there was no helping it, the Song Family cannot compare with those immortal clans that have been passed down for thousands of years.

Not to mention being able to present 50 pieces of Dominant True Spirit for bidding at once, even for five thousand years of 50 True Spirit subsidies from the Divine Dynasty, the newly promoted Annihilation Starship Captain Song Wujiang had to risk heading to the [Torch Ancestral Court] for filing registration, merely to strengthen a few components as much as possible before the civilization war starts.

Just then, a voice once again emerged from a private room that had already placed a bid.

“Golden Energy Shield, Golden Warship Armor, Golden Air Patrol Radar, you can choose one, plus 100 pieces of Seventh-Order Dominant True Spirit.”

Upon hearing this, not only Song Family’s three members but all other bidders in the auction house sighed in understanding that further bidding was unnecessary.

“Isn’t that the private room where the Liang Family Royal Family is located, indeed a royal family with over forty thousand years of heritage, what a grand offer!”

“Let’s leave it, since the Liang Family has already made a move, let’s not add to the commotion. With three Annihilation Starships, they might directly ascend to become an immortal giant after this civilization war, leading our Tianqi into the ranks of a dynasty.”

…

In each private room, discussion reverberated, yet there was a mutual understanding among all, deciding not to continue bidding.

In respect of the most profound royal family in the Five Disks River System Group, each party opted to give this courtesy.

Seeing no one continuing to bid, the Luo Family’s Ultimate Dreadnought Captain on the auction stage below spoke out again.

As his voice gradually emerged, the auction house fell silent, and the atmosphere became eerie once more.

“Honored guests, unfortunately, the current bids do not meet the needs of our Luo family, therefore I declare, the result for this final auction item is, unsold!”

An unsold item is not something unheard of, and it has happened quite frequently, ordinarily it would be nothing noteworthy, however, the problem arises from the preceding bids.

Three components of the same rank golden type to choose from, plus 100 pieces of Dominant True Spirit, this offer definitely exceeds the normal value of a single golden universal cooldown reduction component, especially when it’s a bid from the Liang Family Royal Family.

Therefore, people have to think deeply.

“Is the Chigu Luo Family expressing dissatisfaction with Liang Family in such a manner?”

This is a thought shared by most captains at the moment.

Though outsiders continue to speculate, the details of the situation are known only to the core members of the Luo family itself.

As the personnel in the auction house successively left, in a medium-sized stone chamber deep beneath the auction venue, several Battleship Captains and Dreadnought Captains stood.

“Ancestor, by openly disrespecting the Liang Family like this, will it not incite stronger retaliation from them later?”

“You are too naive; do you think conforming to them will allow us to attempt advancement?”

“More than twenty thousand years, and you still haven’t seen through their facade? The moment Sun Family’s Giant Whale King spoke, it already represented their attitude. Rather than continue catering, it’s better to retain this [Time Crown·Fake] component for our Luo family to exert its true effect!”

“Ancestor, do you have a contingency plan?”

“Sigh, let’s see, whether it can be achieved depends on that individual’s attitude.”

…

Chigu Auction, backstage.

Led by a Battleship Captain from the Luo family, the three members of the Song Family arrived at the backstage, ready to exchange the prior [Dark Star Mysterious Turtle Armor] component.

However, upon entering the backstage, Song Chi and the other two immediately sensed something irregular.

“[King of Dinghai], many ancestors from our Luo family wish to discuss a transaction with you, please follow us.”
