The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers-Chapter 905: Competitive Bidding Frenzy

Rich!

Ji You instinctively straightened her body, looking toward the source of the sound. However, amidst the commotion, the person who had just spoken suddenly ducked, burrowing into the crowd and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Huh?" Ji You craned her neck, peering around: "Where did they hide?"

The voice was very familiar; even if it turned to ashes, Ji You would recognize it!

That!

That’s the voice of that weak chicken!

But the question is, how could a pauper like the weak chicken come up with 99.99 million?

This isn’t 999,900, nor is it 999,900 credit points; it’s 99.99 million!

Nearly 100 million in money, could the weak chicken really afford that?

Everyone at the scene was shocked into an instant silence by that high-pitched voice.

Even someone as composed as Cheng Yu widened his eyes: "Rich!"

You must know, in the auction on the Star Network, bids are not something you can shout carelessly. Once you participate in the auction and agree to abide by the auction terms, every price you quote must be covered by the funds in your account!

As soon as you state a price, the corresponding amount in your Star Network Bank account will be automatically frozen, and once the transaction is successful, the money will be transferred to the auctioneer’s account.

So—

The person who quoted 99.99 million was truly filthy rich!

Cheng Yu paused for a moment, then immediately excitedly raised the small hammer: "99.99 million once!"

"99.99 million twice!"

"99.99 million... cough! Anyone else to bid? If not, the Soul Device belongs to this friend."

Silence.

Thousands onlookers, yet few can pull out 99.99 million on a whim, a rarity indeed.

Besides, a regular High-level Soul Device typically ranges from 30 to 50 million in market price.

So for this Dream Catcher Mid-level Soul Device to fetch a sky-high price of 99.99 million, it’s truly exceeded its value.

However, how to say? High-level Soul Devices are priceless treasures, rarely appearing in auctions; usually, they’re traded privately. It’s said that private prices often exceed the Soul Device’s inherent value.

Though typically not by much.

This Dream Catcher’s price is extremely inflated, leaving the onlookers stunned.

Streamer Ah Da’s voice interrupted the dazed masses when, just as Ah Da was about to strike the hammer, a louder voice suddenly emerged:

"I bid 100 million!"

Whoosh—

The crowd quickly looked towards the speaker, seeing that the voice came from a tall male, robustly built and handsome, with a nameplate bearing four large words:

[Hero King]

Seeing these words, Ji You raised her eyebrows, surprised he joined the fray.

A freshman, which school he’s from remains unknown, yet he’s clashed with Ji You several times in online contests, only to lose each time.

In efforts to win, he tried small tricks... but repeatedly fell prey to Ji You.

Thinking of this, Ji You couldn’t help but chuckle internally. She knew he was wealthy, but never guessed he’d boldly bid one hundred million!

Hero King, whose real name is Wei Xiaoxiong, saw all eyes on him. He didn’t shy away and slightly raised his head, gifting the surrounding glances a flawless smile: "One hundred million, does anyone want to compete with me?"

Within the dense crowd stood Augustine Nolan, eldest son of Lanyue Star’s local aristocracy, the Augustine family. Beside his tall figure was a beautiful young girl, and had Ji You been able to see this, she’d surely furrow her brows, because—

This young girl was Xu Siyu.

After her truth was exposed, Xu Siyu was expelled from school, her prospects ruined with nowhere else to go. Eventually, she sought help from Augustine Nolan, and the Augustine family took her in, making Xu Siyu a Material Processing Master.

Since then, she’s been assisting the Augustine family.

This time, Xu Siyu and Augustine Nolan entered the Star Network intending to purchase materials for Soul Device manufacturing. The news of the Green Glaze Master’s Soul Device auction reached both of them.

So, they painstakingly squeezed into the shop to bid on this Soul Device.

With the auction price at 100 million, Xu Siyu cautiously glanced at Augustine Nolan, softly saying: "Senior Nolan, the budget is 50 million, but now it’s at 100 million. Should we still buy it?"

Nolan, with a steady gaze, responded: "Buy."

Xu Siyu opened her mouth: "But..."

A Mid-level Soul Device is nothing rare, yet Augustine Nolan is interested in the Array Diagram of this Soul Device, in the Artifact Maker’s crafting techniques!

Recently, through research on the previous Grass Seed Fruit Soul Device, he gained some insights into Soul Artifact Manufacturing. If he acquires a Green Glaze Master’s Soul Device...

Thus, Augustine Nolan was determined to obtain the Dream Catcher.

Meanwhile, Hero King bid one hundred million, Cheng Yu’s eyes widened with delight: "This friend bids one hundred million, one hundred million once—"

"One hundred million twice—"

At such a price, ordinary folk are entirely edged out. Now, only a few affluent bidders remain in contention.

Wei Xiaoxiong listened to Ah Da’s voice, appearing calm outwardly yet feeling deeply anxious inside.

Instinctively, he scoured for the first bidder of 99.99 million, but alas—

It seemed that person truly vanished after shouting.

Cheng Yu elongated his voice: "One hundred million three—"

The ’times’ word hadn’t escaped his lips before Augustine Nolan, standing upright, quickly spoke: "Two—"

"Five hundred million!"

Augustine Nolan nearly choked, hurriedly looking toward the speaker, but the person was like a mouse, disappearing into the crowd in an instant.

Hero King’s once confident smile melted away when the words ’five hundred million’ emerged.

A wave of gasps spread across the scene.

"Whoa—"

"Who is this!"

"Terrifying—"

"Unbelievably terrifying!"

Cheng Yu’s hand clutching the small hammer trembled fiercely at that moment, nearly striking down. Thankfully, with live broadcasting for so long, he had even worn women’s clothing before—enduring numerous challenges, he’d seen it all.

Just five hundred million, cough cough...

Calm.

Must stay calm.

Cheng Yu tried his utmost to remain composed, grinning as he said: "The first bidder of 99.99 million now bids five hundred million! Five hundred million! My goodness, Ah Da can barely believe what he’s hearing, but it’s true!!! This also proves our Green Glaze Master’s work is extraordinarily popular and valuable! This friend once again shattered our records, now, does anyone wish to bid higher?"

Quiet.

An eerie silence enveloped the store, inside and out.

As Cheng Yu was about to strike the small hammer, suddenly—
