Global Composite Master: Compositing an Undead Army from the Start Chapter 195 - 162: Double Promotion! (Three in One, 5/5)_1

Only a few minutes after Chen Mo took his seat with the number seventeen placard, the auction began.

He glanced back and estimated that there were probably around sixty to seventy people participating in this round of bidding.

The Auctioneer for today was a curvaceous lady, unlike the gentleman who was hosting yesterday.

The Auctioneer, dressed in a red gown, made some familiar opening remarks as soon as she got on stage.

After that, she started introducing the Extreme Poison Heart.

Through her introduction, Chen Mo found out that the Extreme Poison Heart had been produced in a surprisingly large quantity lately. No wonder there were not many people in this round. It seemed that nobody was in a hurry to get one.

But of course, Auctioneers always aim to get a higher price for each item, so they wouldn’t just focus on the disadvantages.

So, while she did mention the fact that the output had been high recently, she also made a point of emphasizing the wide range of uses for the item.

"While it may not be something you use regularly, Poison Makers often do! Demand is still high, and despite the recent increase in production, few make it to auction. So, you should seize this opportunity."

With her introduction over, the auction promptly began.

"The starting price is forty million. Each bid must be a minimum of one million over the previous bid!"

Bids started to come in sporadically, but this was the first time Chen Mo had ever seen an auction moving so slowly.

After some back and forth with most bids increasing the price by a million at a time, the price had finally reached seventy million.

"Seventy-two million."

Chen Mo decided to raise the bid by two million at once.

As expected, after Chen Mo increased the price to seventy-two million, most people had practically given up.

After the Auctioneer called out the price a couple of times, a bid of seventy-four million finally came in.

Chen Mo observed the person who had made the bid.

so he immediately shot back, "Seventy-five million."

When Chen Mo raised the price again, the remaining bidder gave up.

With a winning bid of seventy-five million, he had easily acquired an Extreme Poison Heart.

"Congratulations to the lady with the number seventeen placard on winning this item! Moving swiftly on to the second lot, which is the Ice Heart. Although it is similar in value to the Extreme Poison Heart, its recent output has been relatively low. If you need it, please seize this chance; we don’t know when we will receive the next Ice Heart."

Output and availability are different things.

For example, if ten items are produced, the finder may use three themselves. A few more may be sold or distributed to acquaintances, leaving only one or two to potentially make it to the auction house.

Therefore, the availability of items is often extremely low.

"Please take a short break and enjoy some tea. We’ll start bidding again in a few minutes at 9:20."

As time passed, the auction filled up with more people.

It quickly reached full capacity at a hundred people.

The atmosphere for this Ice Heart auction was completely different from the previous one for the Extreme Poison Heart.

Once the venue was filled up, the auction started earlier than planned.

Just as Chen Mo had predicted, the competition was intense.

He hadn’t even started bidding, and the price had already shot up to 150 million.

Compared to the previous Extreme Poison Heart, this was twice the price. It was like night and day.

As soon as the price reached 150 million, he immediately raised his placard and exclaimed, "200 million!"

However, he had barely finished speaking, and the Auctioneer hadn’t even had a chance to announce his price, when a bid of 250 million echoed from beside him.

Chen Mo noticed that, like him, this person hadn’t said a word from the start. Only after he bid 200 million did this person suddenly bid 250 million.

"300 million!"

Without wasting time, Chen Mo directly raised his bid again.

Unexpectedly, the moment Chen Mo made his bid of 300 million, the person who had bid 250 million fell silent.

300 million was no small sum. Items such as this, typically costing only several tens of millions, wouldn’t reach this price unless there was a recent decrease in production.

There were no extravagant big-shot bidders like there had been yesterday, so Chen Mo succeeded in nabbing the Ice Heart for 300 million.

With the item secured, the money paid, and the item picked up, Chen Mo immediately teleported home using a Divine Flicker at a secluded spot.

Once back in his original shape, Chen Mo immediately started combining the items.

First, he crafted the Huge Shield.

It was quickly completed.
