Chapter 66 Auction Item: Black Snake Blood
The host carefully held the transparent bottle in her hand, and even put on a pair of gloves, for fear that the deadly toxin might affect her.

Meanwhile, murmurs arose from the pedestal area below, as they had never heard of this object before.

Black snake blood?

Is it the blood of the snake-like orcs?

At that moment, a question came from the first floor: "Excuse me, is the source and distribution of this item confirmed to comply with federal laws?"

In previous auctions, orc blood has never been sold, because citizens of the Federation are protected by law, so who would kill someone to get their blood? Of course, ordinary orc blood doesn't have such great effects either.

It even came with a deadly toxin.

The host smiled and put the bottle down: "Distinguished guests, please rest assured that the source of this item is absolutely legal. Of course, this item also comes with terms and conditions. Once a VIP wins the bid, it must never be used to harm anyone, but only for research, whether in the medical or scientific fields. Once any breakthrough is achieved, the Federation will provide a generous reward."

"Starting price: 1000 million Star Coins!"

"Wow—" After hearing the host's explanation, especially since the price wasn't too expensive and it was placed last, the people below weren't stupid. They probably thought the host wanted to use them to reap the benefits.
Are you casting a net to catch fish?
Some even speculated:

Perhaps the Federation discovered this blood type within its ranks and encountered some difficulties, which is why they cast this net in an attempt to find a solution?

……

The third-floor VIP area.

Jiang Nuo stared in disbelief at the bottle of black snake blood, because she felt her mind clamoring and urging her on, as if it were constantly telling her: Buy it, buy it! You must buy it!
The black blood in that small bottle contained extremely strong male pheromones; its coldness, darkness, and murderous intent constantly seduced her.

This is just a virtual world, so why can she sense it so clearly?

"Nuonuo, what's wrong?" Noticing that something was wrong with the girl, Theo quickly put his arm around her. Nuonuo had seemed so happy just now, but now she seemed a little distracted.

"I, I want..."

Jiang Nuo struggled to speak, because she felt the spiritual energy making the clamor in the sea grow stronger and stronger.

She desperately wanted to give in to her desires; she wanted that bottle of black snake blood! She wanted to hold it in her hands!

Even though Jiang Nuo knew in her heart that she seemed to be controlled by the pheromones emitted by that bottle of blood, she still couldn't control herself.

"Theo, I want that—"

The girl raised her trembling hand and pointed to the small bottle on the auction stage below.

Although the price is not high, most people are hesitant. After all, who would want to take on such a hot potato unless they are a true research enthusiast?

No one dared to make a bid easily.

The rabbit-themed host was somewhat disappointed.

Before the auction, the organizers repeatedly told her that this item must be sold. The starting price was set at 1000 million star coins to filter out those who wanted to take advantage of the situation, because those who could afford 1000 million star coins were definitely not ordinary people.

"Nuonuo, that blood looks..."

Theo frowned, but before he could utter the word "danger," the girl gripped his sleeve tightly with both hands, pleading incessantly, "Theo, I want it, I want it—"

The girl, who had just cried, still had a pale face. This sight made the boy's heart ache. He hesitated for a few seconds, then thought that the virtual world was just a simulation and there would be no real danger. With that in mind, Theo couldn't resist the girl's plea and pressed the call button in front of him.

Jiang Nuo's arms were trembling uncontrollably, and she couldn't help but ask the system in her mind:

"Xiao Cheng, what's going on?!"

She couldn't control herself.

She's currently pregnant with Phil's child, so it's impossible for her to have overflowing spiritual energy. [Nuonuo Host, Xiao Cheng detected an extremely high concentration of male pheromones in that bottle of black blood, more than a hundred times higher than usual. This is likely the cause of your current state.]

"Then why am I the only one like this? I'm not the only female here."

Even the host below was female.

But they didn't react that way!

[I don't know for now. It might be due to your heightened sensitivity as a top-tier female. Of course, this is just Xiao Cheng's guess and not certain.]

"..."

Jiang Nuo gritted her teeth and even considered impulsively withdrawing her consciousness from the virtual world. However, she found that the moment she had this thought, her craving for the bottle of black snake blood intensified, and even after returning to the real world, her body would still feel so uncomfortable.

so painful...

It was even more painful than when I was overflowing with energy.

……

The host below smiled, because as long as someone was interested in the item, her task would be complete once it was sold.

The host glanced at the VIP area number above and then had the concierge bring up the bottle of 100% simulated black blood.

This has been a long-standing practice at auctions: using virtual technology to create a realistic simulation of the items allows guests to experience the joy of acquiring the goods beforehand.

"Give me--!"

As soon as the bottle containing the blood was brought over, Jiang Nuo grabbed it. Although she could keep her mind clear, her body was completely dominated by the clamoring desires within her. She wanted to know what secrets this bottle of black snake blood held, and who the owner of the blood would be.

"Nuo Nuo?"

Theo stared coldly at the bottle of black, chilling blood, his eyes filled with disgust and resistance.

If it weren't for Nuonuo's current stubborn reaction, he really wanted to throw the bottle away.

"hiss……"

Jiang Nuo uncorked the bottle, and the scent emanating from the blood became even stronger. Her hands trembled more violently, and a hint of fear appeared in her beautiful eyes. A scene flashed through her mind.

She seemed to see a blood-soaked figure, its face obscured, frantically slaughtering in some desolate, blood-red zone.

Corpses lay strewn across the field, and the air was thick with the stench of blood.

Jiang Nuo's hand involuntarily tilted, and black blood flowed from the bottle, dripping onto her body. Instantly, her skin turned dark, as if infected and spread by toxins. Even though it was a simulation in the virtual world, the feeling was incredibly real.

"Cold, so cold." The girl hugged herself, a chilling aura emanating from her body. Seeing this, Theo immediately pulled the girl close and swung his hand hard, knocking the small bottle to the ground.

"Nuonuo, don't be afraid, let's leave here."

This matter was too bizarre; Theo couldn't even imagine what the consequences would be if this bottle of blood fell into Nuonuo's hands in reality.

Just as Theo was about to leave with the girl in his arms, a figure appeared outside the curtain.

The person stood aloof, with long, icy blue hair falling casually, yet exuding an aura that could calm people down.

His voice was calm, but his words caused Theo's expression to change drastically: "Even if she leaves the virtual world, she will not be able to return to normal."
