Chapter 20: Bidding
After a moment of consideration, Logan made his decision. "I'll take the Blazing Orchid and Infernal Lotus."
Once he'd read through the detailed effects on all the available herbs, the choice was clear.
The Blazing Orchid is a rare calming flower plucked deep inside A-rank dungeons near volcanoes, only reappearing after a decade. Once consumed, it provides a massive quantity of very pure fire-type mana to the consumer.
The Infernal Lotus was even rarer, only ever appearing inside S-rank dungeons. This particular flower had a calming effect on agressive fire types and helped with the refinement of large mana quantities.
'The current bid on the Lotus is 28 million dollars and there's a 24 million bid on the Orchid,' Logan thought, amazed.'Buying bread from the store is around a dollar... To think something like this is so expensive.'
Although Logan was amazed at the high prices, he knew their true value was far greater when they helped him strengthen his core to its limit during the evolution.
'Not only will it let me draw more mana for spells, but with a strong foundation, future evolutions will be much easier,' he thought.
Logan withdrew 70 million dollars and bid 38 million and 32 million on the items.
'I need to make sure I get them,' Logan thought. 'My evolution is just around the corner and I can't afford to miss these items then.'
Getting a confirmation notice on his watch, Logan continued scrolling through the auction house a little more.
'Some of these items are incredible,' Logan thought, enjoying scrolling through the listings.
