Chapter 64 Black Market Auctions and Straightforward Strategies(1/2)
Originally, Li Qing came here for the black market auction and wanted to see if he could get something good here.
But now that he has opened the box and found a magical relic such as the imitation Agamora Magic Lamp, his expectations for the black market auction are not that great now. What he wants to do most now is to end the auction and go back to have a good time.
Study this magic lamp.
Three wishes represent three extraordinary benefits. As long as you figure out the maximum value of their abilities, you will be happy.
Not long after, as players who signed up for the black market arrived one after another, at a certain moment, a host in a tuxedo came on stage and rang the bell, and the auction officially began.
The first auction item is a modified and strengthened finished cruiser, with full salvo module and full five-level configuration. The starting price is two billion stars.
At the same time, everyone received a piece of auction information, which detailed information about all accessories of the cruiser.
Although everyone has battleships, and most of those who dare to come to the outpost to develop have cruisers, this does not prevent them from getting another finished cruiser that has been configured.
In less than two minutes, the price of this thing was raised to a high price of 6.1 billion, which exceeded the total price of all configurations of this cruiser by about 500 million. It was won by an unknown player.
Generally speaking, the value of the first lot in an auction is second only to that of the finale, and the value of the subsequent lots in the middle is average.
Li Qing and Li Lie were sitting there, looking at the list of auction items and chatting quietly.
Time passed unknowingly, and lots were photographed one after another. There were occasionally ones that he was interested in, but most of them were too expensive, so he gave up in the end.
Soon we came to the later stage of the auction, and the value of each item increased all the way. Soon it was the turn of the four final items of this auction.
It was obvious that everyone in the groggy auction venue was in high spirits. Li Qing also cheered up, because he had just seen the last four items in the auction list and an unknown item, and found that there were two items in it that were very suitable for him.
, hoping to get one.
The first item is a finished battleship, a standard knight type, which has not been modified and has been equipped with common fifth-generation weapon accessories. As long as you buy it, you can immediately take it out for combat. The starting price is 20 billion.
The second auction item is a relic, a mask called the Pirate King. The effect is that after consuming a large amount of energy blocks, it can summon a pirate cruiser and three pirate gunboats, and equip itself with a standard combat pirate crew. It can only be used every month.
Use it once and the starting price is 50 billion.
The third item is a standard frigate manufacturing blueprint from the United Civilization of the Shatta Tribes. The reason why it is the finale is because this blueprint can be used 100,000 times and has a starting price of 10 billion.
The fourth item is an ancient relic-level secret treasure chest that has never been opened and has a starting price of 15 billion.
As for the last unknown masterpiece, it is the King of Bid, the finale of the finale. Generally, there will be one in large auctions. Unfortunately, the King of Bid will not be made public before it is auctioned, so there is no way to know in advance what it is.
It can only be said that it is worthy of being an annual black market auction, and the final lot is of good value and rarity.
The four final items are listed in no particular order, but the first one to be auctioned is the No. 3 frigate manufacturing blueprint with the lowest starting price, which is also one of Li Qing's goals.
This thing comes from the United Civilization of the Sand Tower Tribes. I don’t know where it came from. A blueprint can be used 100,000 times. Normally, a one-time frigate is worth 2 million, and 100,000 times should be worth 200 billion star yuan.
But the problem is that this is a frigate of the Shatta Tribe United Civilization, and its technological level is far inferior to that of humans. As shown in the blueprint, the bare-ship attributes of its frigate are far inferior to those of human standard frigates.
Frigate (Shatta class): used for patrolling, escorting, reconnaissance, warning, mine laying, supporting landings and ensuring Marine Corps landings on planets.
Attributes:
Basic hull: 800
Base Armor: 600
Basic shield: 600
Base speed: 100,000 km/h
Default tactic: sentry tactic.
Fleet slot size: 1.
Guard Core (Default)
Components: energy core, super-light components, thrusters, detectors, and combat computers.
Weapon slots: s4, p1.
General slots: s4,a1.
The basic hull is 200 less than the 1,000 of human fifth-generation frigates, the basic armor and shields are each 400 less, the basic speed is 30,000 kilometers slower, and the weapon slot and general slot are each less than one. Taken together, it is compared to the human standard Haiyan class.
The frigate is weakened by more than 30%.
If we add the suppression of weapons, five generations against three generations, as well as various general accessories and other functional accessories, the overall combat power suppression can reach more than 50%.
What is this concept?
If a single ship is 50% weak, it can still fight a dozen with its command ability. If the whole ship is 50% weak, it will be completely crushed on a large-scale battlefield.
However, no matter how weak it is, it is still a battleship, a battleship that can be used 100,000 times.
If it can be made, it will not affect its use.
It's just that the hull technology is not as good as the Human Empire standards, but the weapons, universal slots, and other accessories are all the Human Empire standards, so the gap is not that big.
It's definitely not possible to be the main force, but it's still fine if it's just cannon fodder and patrol fleet.
"15 billion!"
Li Qing raised his sign and directly added 900 million to the previous bid of 14.1 billion.
Li Lie beside him asked strangely:
"What do you want this for?"
"16 billion!"
Another bid brought the price down to 15.5 billion, and he replied:
"I have a shipyard that I can use."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately asked for 18 billion, which was directly lowered by 2 billion, but Li Qing raised his sign without hesitation:
"20 billion!"
"Okay, this gentleman bids 20 billion. Is there any boss who wants to bid higher?"
The host's tone was exciting and passionate, but there were not many actual bids. In addition to Li Qing, there were more than a dozen people bidding at the same time. As the value increased, some people gradually withdrew from the bidding.
It is normal that there are not many shipments in the frigate blueprint market. Most players with shipyards do not have large shipyards. When the output is not large, of course they choose standard frigates. Few people specialize in buying such low-end products.
Those who bid against him were basically bosses or representatives of large shipyards.
The remaining people took turns bidding, and soon the price of the drawings reached 30 billion.
Li Qing looked at his remaining assets and whispered to Li Lie:
"Lend me some money later."
"35 billion!"
Li Lie was surprised and said:
"Boss, this thing isn't worth 35 billion!"
Li Qing smiled and said nothing, without explaining.
There were many people who had the same idea as him. Many people who had bid before saw this and shook their heads and put down their signs.
“Just add 5 billion, that’s crazy!”
A fat man angrily inserted the sign into the slit of a scantily clad beauty and gave up the bidding.
But the two players sitting next to him looked at each other, and Lu Qing on the left whispered:
"Brother, do we want to help?"
Lu Yi hesitated for a moment:
"Would it cause fire? If he finds out that we gave up, it will be a big blow to his hands."
Lu Qing smiled and said:
"Of course we won't take action."
After speaking, he opened the communication and sent a message to someone. A man sitting not far away from them raised his head and held up a sign:
"36 billion!"
"Okay, now someone is bidding 36 billion. Is there any higher bid?"
The host wished that there would always be people bidding, and he was very happy.
Li Qing frowned and looked over, hesitated for a moment, and continued to hold up the sign:
"37 billion."
The man raised his sign without hesitation:
"38 billion!"
Li Qing was annoyed for a while, thought in his mind, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and there was a noise in his ears. He immediately heard a familiar voice among the many noises:
"40 billion should be his psychological expectation, and he will stop with the first move later."
He quickly turned his head to look in a certain direction and accurately located a certain seat among the crowd of people. He saw Lu Qing who also turned to look over. The two of them looked at each other, one expressionless and the other shocked.
Li Qing only glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze and turned the sign upside down, indicating that he would give up the bidding.
At this time, the auction host also saw his actions and said loudly:
To be continued...
