Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1253 White Gloves

It's numb, it's really numb.

Li Chengxi had just been laughing at the Crown of Horns with a spectator's attitude, but now he saw his own artifact being put on the display stand for auction.

Even the world doesn't change so quickly, does it?
The bidding numbers were rising rapidly, and Li Chengxi felt that he could no longer just watch it.

"Please buy me something."

Alyssa, who was checking the data, was stunned by Li Chengxi's voice:
"what?"

"It's the ring that's being auctioned now. Buy it for me."

Alyssa didn’t care what the finale was just now. When she heard it, she looked up at the holographic image.

"What do you want the ring for?"

"That's my magic weapon!"

"..."

Only then did Alyssa understand why Li Chengxi's tone sounded so fucking different from usual.

She quickly looked through the description of the last lot:

"While I don't mind helping you, I probably can't afford it."

In just a short while, the bidding price soared to seven figures and soon reached eight figures.

Alyssa is a frequent visitor here, and she knows very well that if the bidding for an item exceeds eight figures at the beginning, it will end up with at least nine figures.

Alyssa doesn't really have that much money in her account.

As expected, the price started to slow down after it reached over 100 million yuan, which was a price Alyssa could not afford.

But this gradual slowdown does not mean that it will not continue to grow; the numbers are still rising.

A high-level artifact is more than just a collection.

The power of high-level artifacts actually comes from the godhead.

For example, the Rose Stone, a high-level artifact of Lathander, has its power derived from the dawn priesthood of Lathander, and once the high-level artifact is destroyed, the god will be severely weakened. (Of course, it is not so easy to destroy)

Since the power of a high-level artifact comes from the divine nature, conversely, if you get an ownerless high-level artifact, it is possible to turn it over and control the divine nature on the other side, and then ignite the divine fire and successfully ascend to godhood.

This situation is not without precedent.

Before the Demon King's Ring returned to Li Chengxi's finger, it was ownerless. Reclaiming the Demon King's Ring is equivalent to reclaiming the Demon King's divinity, or at least part of it.

An ownerless godhead could naturally be used by others, which is really weird.

According to the MC, this thing was originally kept by the Glowing Ion Hermitage, which also proves that these guys with a weird style are indeed related to the previous generation of Demon King God.

If everything went normally, the Glowing Ion Order would most likely hand the ring to Li Chengxi when he appeared, but it was obvious that that would be impossible without any accidents.

The seller of the ring raided the Priory of the Luminous Ion, stole the Ring of the Lord, and put it up for auction on the Deep Devil.

So now the one who is scratching his head has become Li Chengxi.

It was really unaffordable to buy it. It was not a question of whether Alyssa was willing to help. The bidding price began to slow down after exceeding 300 million, and finally the bid was successful at 430 million.

What was even more uncomfortable was that Li Chengxi had just descended once to help Yang Yiyi, so he couldn't go down for the time being.

I took a look at the cooling time of the Saint's Advent, and it would take about ten hours. However, this auction was already at its finale and obviously could not last for ten hours.

But it’s no use talking about this now. What we need to consider is how to get the ring.

At this time, Eunice came out of the toilet and said to Alyssa:

"I asked my friends, but they haven't found out who bought the necklace yet. Do you have any information?"

"You asked just the right question."

Alyssa stopped fiddling with the screen. She had just found the buyer's list. "Have you heard of Xike Hardy?"

Alyssa had no impression of this name, but the list showed that he was the one who bought the necklace.

Eunice thought about it carefully:

"I've heard a little about him. I remember that he was a pirate who became famous recently. He had a fleet of hundreds of warships under his command."

"pirate?"

"Maybe he's a puppet of some organization. Every pirate group of this size has a financial backer behind them."

You can't build a fleet just by relying on robbery. Look at the recyclers, the most powerful one has only one starship.

The biggest problem restricting pirates is money. How to get rid of the stolen materials, how to replenish them after getting them, and how to repair the ships.

To be honest, although many shipyards don't mind repairing ships for pirates, the price for pirate ships entering the shipyard is different from that for civilian ships.

If you are willing to repair it, then fix it. If you are not willing, then get out.

Many pirates only have two or three ships at most, and they cannot afford to maintain any larger ships.

It is obviously abnormal that such a person can spend 500 million to buy collectibles.

Deep Diving Devil must have investigated the client's background. Since they did not reject the offer from this guy named Sik Hardy, they probably knew who the big money behind this grandson was and whether he could afford the money.

While the two were talking, Eunice entered the information she had just received into her personal terminal. After a while, she received the message and her face changed slightly.

"We found out that the financial backer behind Sik Hardy is the Molybdenum Group."

"No wonder he can afford the price..."

It seems that the news has leaked out.

The Red Maple Republic knew how important this necklace was to the royalist princess. The Molybdenum Group had clearly shown its stance of standing with the Red Maple Republic. Its dog came and bought the necklace at any cost just to cut off the royalist's thoughts.

Although it costs a huge amount of gold coins, it can be considered an investment. Besides, the money did not disappear out of thin air, and the True Ancestor's necklace itself is also an excellent research material.

Alyssa tapped her temple and said:
"After each auction, there will be a banquet. Generally, unless the buyer strongly requests it, the auction items will be delivered to the buyer after the banquet."

Eunice understood what Alyssa meant, and she said:

"I contacted some friends, but I'm afraid we'll have to do it outside. They can't get into the range of the deep-diving devil."

People without invitations cannot come, and it may also alert the enemy.

Alyssa knew that the Deep Diving Devil was actually controlled by Li Chengxi, so it was very safe to take action here.

But the problem is that Alyssa doesn't want to do that.

The main reason is that she hopes to have the chance to come back again in the future. She and her grandfather are frequent customers here.

The two were discussing how to steal things, while Li Chengxi was thinking about how to take away the Demon King's Ring.

Yes, just take, don’t rob.

Li Chengxi could reach in and take things out, but he couldn't take whatever he saw.

First, it must be displayed on the screen, and second, it must be near interactive conditions.

For example, the terminal controlled by Li Chengxi, and near the holy emblem.

The Deep Diving Devil is indeed under Li Chengxi's control, but if the buyer does not approach the terminal, Li Chengxi really has no way to get the thing out.

This is just like when Alyssa and the others had to sneak into the Molybdenum Group’s building to steal the data stick left by Villania’s grandfather. Just seeing it doesn’t mean Li Chengxi can take it out directly. Some specific conditions are required.

Emmm...

This matter really needs to be carefully considered.
