781 Global Auction Part 1 (1/2)

Chapter 781 – Global Auction (Part 1)

Gaia 4th year, 1st month, 1st day, 10 AM, a System Notification sounded out.

”World Notification: The 1st global auction officially begins. All players in the world that meets the requirements will automatically receive an invitation. Once the invitation is accepted, the player will be teleported to the auction venue.”

...

At basically the same time, Ouyang Shuo heard a System Notification in his ear.

”System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi, found that your assets have reached four million, fulfilling requirements, will you join the global auction?”

”Join!”

”System Notification: Confirmed, teleportation begin!”

With a 'shua' a blinding white light shone and Ouyang Shuo was teleported to an unknown map, the legendary city in the skies.

Legends had it that the city in the skies was where Gaia lived, and it was hidden in the clouds, floating around the entire planet. Every day and night, it monitored every continent and ensured that the game runs properly.

In the city, there were God Generals, fairies, and various beasts. There were even rumors that the leaders of the federation lived in the city and enjoyed their life there.

It was not an understatement to say that the city in the skies was the most mysterious presence.

Who would have guessed that Gaia would actually choose to hold the first global auction at the city in the skies? It boosted all their excitement and made the trip alone worthwhile.

The sky auction venue was located at the west side of the city. The players were teleported here and could not walk out of the area. The mysterious city in the skies was indeed still a mystery to everyone.

Ouyang Shuo knew that not only the global auction but even the future martial arts competitions would also be held here. In truth, the city in the skies was just a place Gaia used to hold global scale events.

It was not as mysterious as the rumors said.

As they all teleported at the same time, Ouyang Shuo appeared together with everyone else who met the requirements. Looking out, there were no more than a hundred people in the auction venue.

Some of them were people Ouyang Shuo had met before like William and Henry, and there were also people who he did not have a chance to meet like Jack Dawson.

There were even more players that even Ouyang Shuo as a person that reincarnated did not recognize. In the last life, how would he have the chance to join such a high-class event?

Now, even on a global scale, Ouyang Shuo was the most eye-catching sight. When players sitting around him saw him, they all greeted him extremely warmly and introduced themselves.

All the China region Lords sat in one line. Apart from Ouyang Shuo, Di Chen, and Chun Shenjun, there were only two others from China, the guild leaders Blood Romance and Xie Siyun.

The appearance of the satellite cities had captured the attention of the guilds. Even the top 10 guilds would not dare to use their precious funds on the auction without a certain foundation.

What was truly coincidental was that Henry sat a row in front of Ouyang Shuo.

”Old friend, long time no see!” Henry warmly greeted and smiled, ”Shanhai City has been making so many big waves after returning from the Mediterranean, I'm truly envious.”

Ouyang Shuo smiled, ”We can meet soon.”

”Oh, you are going on another voyage?”

Hearing his words, not only Henry, even Di Chen and the others sitting beside him focused.

Di Chen and the others were not all that envious with how many people Ouyang Shuo knew. Speaking of contacts, Di Chen knew nearly everyone here. Ouyang Shuo's appearance did not change much, and the top players of each country were still the representatives of the huge powers.

As one of the top people in the Chinese circle, Di Chen had many interactions with these people in real life.

However, their territories were still currently limited to their own countries and did not have much cooperation in the game. Naturally, they did not have much to talk about. When country wars started, that would be a whole different matter.

Ouyang Shuo smiled and shook his head, not directly answering the question. Instead, he started to talk about the situation in the Mediterranean. As Jidian City was a lone city outside, Ouyang Shuo hoped to obtain some relevant information about it from Henry.

After talking for a while, Henry suddenly pointed to a place near the left to the front, ”That young man called Caesar has been really active.”

Ouyang Shuo looked at where Henry pointed. This was the first time Ouyang Shuo saw the legendary Caesar, one of the future heads of Europe. He truly looked handsome and strong.

Caesar seemed to have noticed Ouyang Shuo's gaze, and he suddenly turned around and gave him a provocative eye.

When Henry saw that, he said with displeasure, ”That kid truly is arrogant.”

Ouyang Shuo smiled, thinking to himself, 'Interesting!'

In the last life, Caesar was one of the top Lords in Europe and looked down on the other players in the world. He was probably unhappy about Shanhai City entering the Mediterranean.

Henry wanted to control the Mediterranean, so he definitely had many conflicts with this Caesar. This French friend was not really that simple. In fact, he wanted to make Shanhai City fight with Caesar.

Ouyang Shuo only wanted to maintain the normal running of the trade route and not get involved in their disputes. As long as Caesar did not actively challenge the Mediterranean Squadron, Ouyang Shuo would not want to act.

Let's just leave Henry to deal with him.

At this juncture, the auction officially began.
