Chapter 367 Chapter366-Wolf Guild Digging Their Own Grave
His divine power remained tightly locked on 45 on the first floor, the master assassin from AGHHO, who was completely unaware of it.
His pride as an assassin provided no warning against John\'s lock-on.
Not only 45, but John also spotted several other individuals with suspicious behaviors in the crowd.
These people looked no different from ordinary players, but the attribute information displayed by the Eye of Artemis revealed their true identities – other AGHHO assassins led by 45.
At the moment, they were all dressed in Wolf Guild attire, blending in seamlessly with the players.
A glint of coldness flashed in John\'s eyes. Wolf Guild... They really were courting disaster, daring to aid local NPCs against fellow players.
Even if they wanted to curry favor, they should at least respect some basic principles.
After a moment\'s thought, John suddenly looked up and spoke indifferently, "You two, have you recently considered initiating a Guild Battle?"
Blue Sea and Adam, who had been fully focused on persuading Loving_Lollipop, looked up in confusion. "Do you mean a Guild Battle between our two guilds?" asked one.
John\'s lips twitched slightly at their misunderstanding. "Of course not. I mean launching a Guild Battle against another guild."
Blue Sea chuckled, "Why do you ask all of a sudden, Galewind? Has some guild gotten on your bad side?"
Adam, with a hearty and bold demeanor, patted his chest, "Just say the word, Galewind. Whatever guild you want us to handle, as long as it\'s not one of the top ten global guilds, I\'ll take care of it for you! Even if it\'s a guild on par with us, my Genesis Guild will help if we can!"
His chest-thumping was loud, but Adam\'s words were carefully phrased.
The implication was simple: if the guild offending John was of average strength, it could be easily dealt with.
But if it was a top-tier global guild, they could only offer limited help...
John, however, showed no dissatisfaction with Adam\'s response.
After all, even with a good relationship with Adam and Blue Sea, he couldn\'t expect them to fight a powerful guild to a standstill for his sake.
John smiled and said, "It\'s not a big guild. Blue Sea, do you remember the guild you chose to battle to save me?"
Blue Sea thought for a moment, then frowned, "Are you talking about Wolf Guild?"
John nodded slightly.
"Wolf Guild? Never heard of them."
Adam\'s expression relaxed slightly, realizing that it wasn\'t a major guild, which meant less trouble.
Blue Sea shared the same sentiment and curiously asked, "Has something happened recently with this Wolf Guild, Galewind?"
John shook his head, "It\'s not exactly a conflict, but this Wolf Guild is somewhat revolting…" He went on to explain how Wolf Guild was colluding with AGHHO. There was no need to hide such matters.
Upon hearing John\'s explanation, Blue Sea and Adam exchanged a look, both registering the gravity in each other\'s expressions. "You mean to say, there are AGHHO assassins lurking in this auction?" they asked.
John had previously briefed them about the AGHHO assassin organization, so the mention of AGHHO assassins at the auction raised their alarm.
After all, with their current levels and abilities, they weren\'t prepared to confront such formidable native NPC foes.
John glanced downstairs, a chilly smile playing on his lips, "Indeed, and not just ordinary members. The leader is a master assassin ranked in the top fifty in AGHHO…"
Both Blue Sea and Adam gasped in shock.
For a moment, they even contemplated abandoning the auction.
A master assassin was at least a top-tier expert over level two hundred.
If they were to act, all the players in the hall combined wouldn\'t stand a chance against such a formidable assassin.
"But wait, this is a player\'s auction. How could NPCs mix in? Is this some kind of hidden quest arranged by the system?" Blue Sea suddenly voiced his surprise.
John looked up as if trying to see through the thick ceiling to the highest point in the sky. "I\'m not sure, but the system in this game is not like the ones we\'ve encountered in other games. I wouldn\'t be surprised by any rules it implements…"
Blue Sea and Adam failed to grasp the deeper meaning in John\'s words.
They were still preoccupied with how to deal with the AGHHO assassins infiltrated among them.
John glanced at them and said calmly, "Don\'t worry. As long as I\'m here, these AGHHO assassins won\'t be able to stir up any trouble."
His voice, though flat, exuded an unmatched confidence that instantly influenced Adam and Blue Sea.
They both exhaled in relief, with Adam revealing a fierce smile, "Since Galewind can handle those AGHHO assassins, let my Genesis Guild deal with Wolf Guild!"
Blue Sea immediately bristled at this, what did he mean by \'let Genesis Guild handle it\'? Was Blue Sea Guild just for show? Sensing Blue Sea\'s thoughts, Adam turned to explain, "I didn\'t mean to steal your thunder. You\'ve already fought with Wolf Guild last time, so let us handle this Guild Battle as a bit of training."
After some thought, Blue Sea agreed, "I\'ll come to support you. After the auction ends, we\'ll apply to start the Guild Battle. Just don\'t embarrass yourself by losing."
Adam laughed heartily, confidently saying, "That won\'t happen. A small Wolf Guild is nothing to worry about."
As they chatted, a clear bell suddenly rang out downstairs, echoing throughout the hall. The sound vibrated, signaling the imminent start of the auction.
Blue Sea and Adam returned to their own booths, not forgetting to add Loving_Lollipop as a friend before leaving.
...
On the stage, the lights suddenly brightened, focusing on the elegantly dressed Isabella as she gracefully made her entrance.
She was wearing a revealing purple gown that showcased her long legs.
Standing elegantly in the center of the stage, her eyes and brows revealed a soft, beautiful smile. "Dear players, welcome to today\'s auction at Dawn Breeze Auction House."
Isabella\'s gentle voice announced the start of the auction, melodious and entrancing, as if it could transport one to another world. "Today\'s auction features many precious items, including rare equipment, armors, weapons, gems, and more. The format remains the same as before, divided into two rounds... Now, let\'s begin the first round of the auction!"
With a light smile and a hint of excitement in her eyes, Isabella continued, "The first item up for auction is a used legendary weapon, named \'Starlight Blade.\' This weapon, once wielded by a legendary warrior, boasts immense attack power and special attributes. The starting bid is ten thousand gold coins."
As Isabella introduced the item, the spotlight shifted to a display case beside her.
The Starlight Blade, resting in the center of the case, shimmered brilliantly under the lights.
Simultaneously, the attributes of the Starlight Blade were displayed on the screen above Isabella\'s head:
[Starlight Blade (Epic Equipment): Originating from a legendary warrior a century ago, this warrior had once shone brilliantly on the battlefield against the abyss, slaying many fallen and dark abyssal creatures. Eventually, the warrior returned home in glory, and the Starlight Blade, carried by the aging hero, faded into history along with him, until rediscovered by a fortunate finder...]
[Level Requirement: Level 180 or 300 Attack Power]
[Attributes: +200 Attack Power, +20% Mana Regeneration, +10% Armor Penetration…]
[Additional Skill: Starlight Slash – Active skill that unleashes a solitary shadow energy sword strike towards the enemy, inflicting 1500 additional physical damage…]
[Class: Warrior, Spellblade…]
…
Isabella\'s somewhat enticing voice rose again, "I believe everyone here has seen this equipment in the booklet we distributed. After all, it\'s the top item in the first round of the auction. However, you might not be aware of its specific attributes, which are now displayed on the screen above. Trust me, this is the perfect main weapon choice for any warrior class…"
At the revelation of the attributes, the hall instantly buzzed with whispers.
"This weapon\'s attack power is definitely top-notch!" exclaimed an excited assassin class player from below.
"Indeed, just the +200 attack power alone makes it worth the price. I wish I could own it!" another player said enviously.
"Only ten thousand gold coins to start? Isn\'t that price too low? Doesn\'t the sword have any hidden flaws?"
"Read carefully, it\'s a starting bid of ten thousand gold coins, not a fixed price. Where did this bumpkin come from? Haven\'t they ever attended an auction before?"
"Damn it, who the hell are you cursing?"
"You got a problem with that? Meet me in the arena later, I\'ll teach you a lesson."
"I can\'t wait for the auction to start; my gold coins are burning a hole in my pocket!"
….
The first piece of equipment at the start of the auction instantly ignited the audience\'s passion.
Inside the booth, John glanced at the Starlight Blade and quietly sighed in admiration.
It had to be said that the items prepared for this auction were indeed more exquisite than the last, at least in terms of attributes significantly surpassing the first round of the previous auction.
