Chapter 299: Fate is a mean little bitch
Inside the private booth, Damon’s eyes widened. The big shots were finally starting to make a move. Until now, even though the items were good, it was not enough to bring out the real players of the game, but now the first one had revealed himself.
Gigarion. Damon knew about him very well. In fact, everyone from his last life knew him very well. The Battle Crusaders were one of the top guilds in the game. If the super guilds did not exist, then they might have even been the best guild in the game.
And the guild master of such a guild had personally come over to make a bid for the legendary item!
To be honest, Damon had a high opinion of the guy and genuinely did not want him to fall into the trap he had laid. Thankfully, almost immediately, subsequent bids started pouring out.
The moment Gigarion’s voice echoed through the hall, it was as if a switch had been flipped. Dozens of players, guild representatives, and hidden powerhouses who had stayed silent until now suddenly sprang to life.
The number on the bid display started climbing in rapid bursts, each increase more aggressive than the last.
"1.1 million!"
"1.3 million!"
"1.5 million!"
The crowd erupted in murmurs as the number passed the psychological threshold. Many players who had mocked the potion earlier now looked shaken, some even biting their nails as they realized what they’d dismissed might have just become the most valuable item of the year.
Damon saw many familiar figures making aggressive bids. Azure Serpents guild, Black Onyx guild, Blood Wraith and his sister Phoenix, Bertram and even Daddy Brutal.
Daddy Brutal confidently bid for 2 million which made Damon very surprised. It looked like the guy had a lot to give. In the future if they meet again, he needed to make sure to thoroughly plunder all of that wealth.
