“I didn’t expect the Deng family to make a move so quickly.”
“They’re really here for the graphite powder. I never thought that such a small lump would be sold for such an expensive price.”
“Let’s wait and see. The surrounding blacksmith families will definitely make a move.”
The crowd discussed in low voices. They all wanted to see who would get the graphite powder.
“It’s just ¥1,600,000. If you want to get this, you’ll have to at least offer some of your family’s fortune. I offer ¥2,000,000.”
A man in smithing clothes had just finished speaking when another voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone turned their heads and saw an old man and a young man sitting at the edge of the first row.
The one who had spoken earlier was a youth who was only 20 years old.
The young man was wearing a light green robe with five stars drawn on his chest, which was quite eye-catching.
The old man was sitting at the side with a smile, not saying a word.
The old man was only wearing linen clothes, but no one dared to think that he was just an ordinary old man.
Most people knew that this old man was the capital’s master blacksmith, whose strength was the closest to the seven stars realm.
His reputation was only a hair’s breadth away from Master Qian’s.
That was because he had never forged equipment for people outside of his family. However, in terms of strength, Master Qian was still inferior to him.
It was a surprise that the father of the Qin family patriarch, Qin Yue, would attend the auction.
Everyone was surprised to see the old man’s face.
The old man had a kind expression, and his face was full of wrinkles. However, his eyes were extremely deep as if they could see through everything.
He was wearing a plain-colored linen robe. If it were not for the young man’s voice, almost no one would have noticed his existence.
At that moment, Wu Mo appeared somewhat surprised too. He estimated that the old man’s strength had probably reached the peak of six stars, which was the cultivation level of Principal Qiu in the Divine Arms Academy.
Although the old man’s clothes did not have any indication of his strength, Wu Mo could sense it based on his intuition.
“Ha, the Qin family sent a little brat out to do their bidding. I don’t know what he’s thinking. He doesn’t have any manners at all. You want your family’s assets, don’t you? I’ll offer ¥2,300,000.”
The middle-aged man, who was an early-stage six-star blacksmith, was a little annoyed that he had been embarrassed in public.
His tone was urgent, and he immediately responded.
Following both of their voices, the surrounding blacksmith families also made their move, and the price rose.
The ordinary audience members were happy to see the families fighting over a piece of material.
Wu Mo was naturally one of the audience members.
He had only been in the Research Department and had no idea about the other forces in Jingdu.
Seeing the few great blacksmith families appear one after another now, he silently noted it down in his heart.
Seven minutes had passed since the auction started.
The price was currently at ¥3,900,000, which was four times the graphite powder’s initial price.
To Wu Mo, it was definitely not a wise decision to buy a portion of graphite powder at this price.
If it was not related to his project, he would have left right away and not wasted any time.
It was a pity that the best medium for forging the Spirit Wave Sword was graphite powder. Even if he could find a substitute, it would definitely affect the weapon’s effectiveness.
Therefore, he still wanted to buy it even though the price had exceeded his expectation.
If he changed the medium and the Spirit Wave Sword could not display its full power, his contribution to the breakthrough of his technique would become unstable.
After all, a technological breakthrough project was not that easy to complete. It had to reach a level that the entire field of forging had never reached before.
If the Spirit Wave Sword was not adequately effective, then would all his efforts not have been in vain?
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and decided to buy it himself.
He would look for the leaders later to make up for the money.
If he lost the right to attend the blacksmith’s Annual Exchange Conference because of one or two million, it would not be worth it.
At that though, his eyes glinted, and he immediately raised his hand. “I’ll pay ¥4,500,000,” he said in a deep voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding audience members immediately looked at Wu mo in shock.
The others had assumed that the bidders were those few blacksmith families who had been fighting for the item. They did not expect this voice to come from a youth in his 20s sitting in the front row. Moreover, he had offered a price that was a whole ¥600,000 more than the others.
No one had seen it coming.
At that moment, Elder Yao Shan, who was standing on the stage, glanced at the young man who made the bid too.
There was some doubt in his expression.
The graphite powder had very limited use. It was usually used in equipment of Epic grade and above.
Yet, the young man was only in his early 20s, and he was wearing ordinary formal clothes.
He did not look like a high-level blacksmith who could participate in the development of Epic equipment.
The other families were only fighting for the graphite powder because they wanted to work with the Forest Wolf mercenaries and obtain Core Nectar.
He could not imagine what the young man was going to do with the graphite powder.
Who was he? How could he easily call out a price of over ¥4,000,000?
The audience sitting around Wu Mo had the same questions in their hearts.
More than four million might not be much for a blacksmith family, but the graphite powder’s value was limited. Even though they did not know its use, they knew that it was definitely not a wise move to purchase graphite powder at such a high price unless the boy was extremely rich. Then, he would not care about a few million dollars.
Right then, the three families who had been arguing previously gasped and began to guess which family this young man came from, or which noble’s son he was.
What was the purpose of his actions?
However, they had no idea that Wu Mo was just a researcher, and he was only using graphite powder to complete a project.
There was no other purpose aside from that.
“Wow, ¥4,600,000 is a high price. I’m afraid it’s enough to buy three sets of graphite powder under normal circumstances.”
“That’s right. it’s hard to imagine how rich a person could be to add another ¥600,000 on top of ¥4,000,000. It’s shocking.”
The crowd was in a heated discussion, and the three blacksmith families that were determined to get the graphite powder had to consider whether they should raise the price or not.
The value of Core Nectar was indeed incredibly high, but the cost of repairing a Legendary item had already exceeded their expectations.
If the young man intended to continue bidding and buy the graphite powder, they would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage.
There was only half a minute left before the five-minute auction process began.
The representatives of the three forging families all fell silent. Although the money they had on them was enough to buy higher-priced items, everything was about the price-performance ratio.
