Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Warning, Water Elemental Arrow Skill Book
“Why should I keep bidding? I don’t even need this thing,” Aiden said with a smile.
He had the Legendary Rank Shadow Stealth skill, so he didn’t need the red glass bead being auctioned.
“You… you don’t even have any money!”
“Aiden, you’re bidding on purpose to make me spend more. That’s just cheating!”
“You’re too dirty and shameless!” Miles’s chest was rising and falling quickly. His face was red, and his eyes were fixed on Aiden in the distance.
He had expected Aiden to keep bidding, then he would give up and mock him.
But now, everything was the opposite.
What Aiden was doing was exactly what he wanted to do!
Miles clenched his fists. He wanted to rush into Aiden’s private room and beat him up.
Of course, that would only happen if he had taken a special medicine and Aiden had already lost his Epic Rank Iron Dragon’s Magic Staff.
“Watch your words. Bidding is always based on your own choice. There’s no such thing as what you call ’intentional price inflation,’” said the female host in a revealing red dress, looking serious.
She took a deep breath and looked at the surrounding Reclassers, then continued,
“Dear guests, our guild has always been honest and fair. We never use such low-level tricks.”
“Of course, some people might not have much money, but they act like they do. After buying something, they might feel there’s a secret deal. That’s normal. We hope everyone can understand.”
When Miles heard the host’s words, he was almost furious.
Was she saying he didn’t have money but was pretending to?
And in the auction hall, the other Reclassers all nodded in agreement,
“Exactly. Aiden from room 10 was just bidding normally, but it made Miles lose his cool.”
” I think it’s Miles who wanted to trick Aiden, but failed, and now he feels like he’s lost out, so he said all those things,” said one person.
“Ugh, you’re right. He’s such a hypocrite. If Aiden keeps bidding, he’ll just give up too,” said another.
“Haha, spending 1 billion to buy something worth only 400 million. If that were me, I’d be so angry I’d die,” said someone else.
Miles took a deep breath, just about to say something, when the door to his private room quickly opened.
The manager who had appeared in front of Aiden earlier smiled and knocked on the door gently, saying,
“Miles, please be careful with your words. Don’t say things that might mislead others. If it harms our guild’s reputation, we will hold you responsible.”
Miles slightly leaned forward, stared at the manager with angry eyes, and said, “Hold me responsible?”
“The hostess was being rude to me, talking behind my back. I want to complain about her!”
“Let me tell you, I have millions of followers on TikTok…”
Before Miles could finish, the guild manager waved his hand impatiently and said,
“I’ve already been polite enough. You previously accused our receptionist of treating you unfairly, and now you’re saying our guild is intentionally raising prices.”
“One last warning — either shut up or leave.”
“Do you even know? The power behind our guild isn’t some family, nor some high-tier Reclasser. It’s the youngest emperor in the history of the Elephant Empire!”
At this, Miles was slightly surprised. He really didn’t know about this.
After all, Calvin didn’t tell him much about the Elephant Empire Royal Trade Association. He just gave him the VIP card and told him to bid on the Water Elemental Arrow.
“Sorry, I was wrong. I misunderstood and said some bad things,” Miles took a deep breath and tried to control his anger.
He hadn’t won the Epic Rank Skill Book yet, so he definitely wasn’t leaving.
Everything was Aiden’s fault!
It was all Aiden’s fault that he ended up saying those things in public and created a misunderstanding.
“Miles, if you don’t say anything that causes misunderstandings and just quietly bid on items, our guild will be very happy to have you,” said the guild manager before leaving the private room.
“Captain, this isn’t your fault…” several players from The Azurecloud Empire said to Miles in the room.
Miles took a deep breath. His fists were clenched so tight that they made a creaking sound.
“I won’t bid on anything else. I just want that Skill Book!”
“If Aiden keeps trying to compete with me… then let’s see who gives up first!”
“The Epic Rank Iron Dragon’s Magic Staff hasn’t been sold yet. He probably doesn’t have much money on him,” Miles said in a low voice.
The auction continued. Miles kept watching Aiden’s 10th private room the whole time.
But Aiden didn’t make a move. It seemed like he wasn’t going to bid on anything at all.
Inside the 10th private room, Aiden frowned and whispered to himself,
“Hmm, did Miles not want anything else?”
“That’s not right. He mentioned earlier at the entrance that Calvin gave him a lot of Epic Rank materials.”
“Now he only bought one item. That’s not enough.”
Aiden shook his head. He had only made Miles spend a few hundred million.
He had planned to buy everything Miles wanted, but he never expected Miles to just sit there and do nothing.
At this moment, the auction reached its peak.
The beautiful hostess excitedly shouted, “Next up is an Epic Rank Skill Book — Water Elemental Arrow!”
“Please look at the big screen!”
Instantly, the information about the Water Elemental Arrow appeared on the screen.
[Water Elemental Arrow: Epic Rank. Consumes a lot of magic power. Can form one or more arrows made of water elements. When hitting an enemy, it reduces their resistance to status effects and deals high damage. When hitting a teammate or the user themselves, it deals 1 point of damage, removes control effects (including but not limited to dizziness, confusion, paralysis), and increases resistance to status effects by 30% and life recovery speed by 10% for the next ten minutes.]
“Everyone, as you can see, this Epic Rank skill isn’t just for attacking enemies. It can also remove control effects!”
“It’s both offensive and defensive!”
“And if your luck is good enough, you might even collect all five types of elemental arrows, and combine them to create a Legendary Rank skill!”
“This Epic Rank Skill Book starts at 3 billion, and each bid must be at least 100 million!” The female host’s voice was very excited and full of energy.
As she finished speaking, someone shouted, “I bid 3.5 billion!”
“I bid 4 billion!”
…
Suddenly, the auction became very hot. Many regular Reclassers could only watch others bid, but they still felt extremely excited.
“8 billion!”
A calm voice came from the private room next to Aiden.
Although Aiden couldn’t see who it was, he could hear someone in the hall say in surprise,
“Wow, isn’t that the strongest genius from our Elephant Empire, Morgan?”
“He also wants this Epic Rank Skill Book?”
“Of course he does. Morgan is a Mythic Rank Limit-Breaker Mage. He can increase the range of his skills, and cast them instantly or even double cast them!”
“This global Reclasser exchange competition, Morgan will definitely lead our country’s top talents to win the championship!”
“So what else is there to say? I give up.”
“Wait, did you bid? Do you have that much money?”
“No, I don’t, so I’m giving up.”
Many members of the Elephant Empire stopped bidding after they recognized it was their country’s genius, Morgan.
But for players from other countries, Morgan wasn’t that intimidating.
“9 billion!”
“10 billion!” Someone kept bidding.
Aiden heard Morgan’s voice coming from the next room, the ninth private room, saying,
“15 billion.”
Suddenly, the auction hall fell silent.
The price of this Epic Rank Skill Book had jumped to 15 billion!
That was 15 billion! Most Reclassers would never make that much in their whole lives.
Even ordinary people could live comfortably for the rest of their lives just by putting 15 billion in the bank and living off the interest!
At this moment, in the 33rd private room, Miles took a deep breath and pressed the button, saying,
“3 billion…”
Before he could finish, someone laughed out loud.
The price was already at 15 billion, but Miles only said 3 billion.
But then, what Miles said next completely shocked everyone.
“3 billion, plus four Epic Rank materials.”
Instantly, the female host in the red, lace dress dropped her microphone slightly, widened her eyes, and looked directly at the 33rd private room.
“Mr. Miles, are you serious?”
“Epic Rank materials are expensive and rare. Our guild needs to check them before we can confirm if your bid is higher.”
Miles let out a soft breath. The woman had been talking behind his back earlier, but now that she heard his bid, she had changed her tone immediately.
“Let your guild’s appraisers come to my private room,” Miles sneered, looking toward Aiden. “Who has money and who doesn’t? Isn’t that obvious?”
He had already brought out Epic Rank materials and 3 billion. Aiden had no way to keep up!
After a while, a staff member quickly walked over to the hostess and whispered a few words.
The hostess took a deep breath, raised the microphone, and shouted, “After checking, Mr. Miles’ bid is higher!”
“The Epic Rank materials he has are harder to get and more valuable than regular ones.”
“If anyone wants to bid again, they need to…”
At that moment, Aiden calmly pressed the button next to the window of his private room.
