MMORPG: The Tales of Souls

The auction site looked like a huge theater, with thousands of seats and VIP rooms. This auction is different from normal auctions, where specialized auction houses are used, so it is safer and more discreet since it only needs to go to the NPC so that the whole human kingdom could dispute the item and can only be traded with money.

But as some want an exchange of items rather than money, this type of auction is the best, even if it is not discreet and secure.

Not discreet would be that the faces of everyone can be seen, including VIPs, and not being safe is that when you leave the city with the item, would be surrounded by players and dead, so there is a chance of losing the newly purchased item.

Arriving by the transport stone, Liu Yang was wearing a black cloak, what he saw was a totally lively atmosphere. For one of the great auctions of the human kingdom would begin. Liu Yang went directly to the lord's mansion, without being stopped by anyone, he reached miss Veola's room. It was as if she had already been waiting for him.

As he reached the doorway, a voice sounded inside.

"You do not have to do a ceremony, just go in."

After entering, Liu Yang saw that miss Veola sat in the chair behind the table, she was wearing a light blue blouse, a skirt that went down to her knees and light makeup on her face.

"Long time no see you, young adventurer, that was a good plan two months ago, are you here just to get the Adventurer Set or something else?"

"I'm here for the auction after I'm done I'll pick up my items."

"Then come with me." Finishing her speech, she gestures with her hand and a card with a number 5 written on it appears on the desk.

Contrary to expectations of Liu Yang, he thought he would get the card, but it was the opposite, he had to accompany the miss Veola to auction.

Ding ...

"Quest: Follow the Lord Veola somewhere. Description: Lord. Veola is leaving somewhere and needs someone to accompany her for a chat. Rank: D. Requirements: Be a friend of Lord Veola and an apprentice of old Smith. Reward: A little story about the inheritance of the Lord of the Lands of Fire family."

"Accept - Decline"

(It looks like it will not just be an auction tonight)

Ding ...

"Mission accepts"

Arriving at the venue dressed in a black cloak and accompanied by Lord Veola, Liu Yang could not avoid drawing attention of others, an NPC and a player together was not very rare as there were large types of escort missions, but for a special occasion such as the auction, and even with the city lord, this kind of situation was rare to see. Many began to think about the identity of the person dressed in black.

Arriving at the entrance, Lord Veola showed card number 5, the card was from one of the VIP rooms. Entering the room and seeing that it was small, there were only two chairs that gave sight to the auditorium in front, as there was nothing that blocked the view of the people from outside, it was possible to see who the people were in the VIP rooms.

Each sat in a place waited for the start of the auction.

Since the auction could not meet the demand, they had a rule, only one or two people per faction. The time went by slowly, the auction site began to get fuller by the minute.

Tong ... Tong ...

When the bell rang, the place darkened and lights appeared on the stage along with several people, a white-haired old man and a line with beautiful young women makeups, wearing tight shirts and miniskirts behind him, each holding a silver tray with a red cloth on top, the male players closest to the stage could not avoid drooling as they watched the beautiful young women on the stage.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen, I know everyone is looking forward to the auction, so I will not announce the rules, but I need to inform you that some of the auction items are the personal property of some of you, so the price of some items it will be an exchange, so the one who satisfies the seller will get the item without further ado. The first item, please."

Finishing to speak one of the women behind the old man began to walk seductively swinging her hips as she walked to the old man, removing the cloth and showing a helmet that glowed a light reddish with some jewelry, several details that emphasized its beauty of the item.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first item is this helmet forged by City of Steel blacksmiths, the name is Helmet of the Furious Warrior, and it has a Rank C crystal refined in the helmet."

The old man shows the statistics to the crowd.

Ding ...

An information window appears to the crowd, containing the helmet information.

Helmet of the Furious Warrior

Description: The Helmet used by a warrior who had gone mad after having used it.

Level 3

Attack: 50

Defense: 50

Effect: Decrease the chance of mental attacks by 15%.

Requirement: Only for heavy armor classes, level 80.

Weight: 1 kilogram

"Not bad for an item of that level."

It was what most thought, but people of great power and influence did not see as the item as valuable, those who were of smaller powers, for them this type of item was good to have for their weaker members.

"The initial bid is 3 gold coins, each bid is required to increase the bid by 50 silver coins. Let the bids begin."

"I offer 4 gold coins !!!" Someone in a corner shouted.

"I offer 4 gold coins and 50 silver coins!!!" Another shouted.

...

The bids were given up to get 8 gold coins and be taken by a tall man of bad appearance.

"Next item."

The next young woman walked over to the old man and, removing the cloth covering the tray, showed a semi-transparent white crystal the size of a biscuit.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a fairly rare C-rank crystal, it has the sacred property that helps those have this kind of power, have a significant increase in their powers."

Crystal information was shown on the screen.

Holy Stone of Light

Description: A stone born in a place with plenty of light powers.

Effect: + 15% on all stats for them to have the sacred attribute.

Weight: 10 grams

When they saw the statistics of the stone, the crowd could not help but be surprised, as the old auctioneer had said, stones of sacred power were rare.

The most common were the five basic elements: fire, water, earth, wind, and lightning. The elements of wood and metal were unusual, while the other three elements were: sacred, darkness, and chaos were rare and things related to these three elements were extremely rare and valuable.

"The initial bid for this stone is 25 gold coins and with each bid, the increase is 1 gold coin."

When the value was spoken, many thought it was too expensive, while others thought it was worth it or not.

But when the first gave value, the crowd followed.

"I offer 30 gold coins." someone shouted.

"I offer 40 gold coins." someone else shouted.

...

The bid raised up to 75 gold coins, the person it took was a middle-aged woman who was dressed in a white robe that covered her entire body and showed only her face.

The auction continued with various kinds of materials and assorted equipment, none of the items aroused the interest of Liu Yang.

Seeing that he was getting bored, the Lord Veola cannot help but speak.

"Is bored? Would you like to hear a little story?"

"I would like."

Seeing that there were still some items up to the final items, Liu Yang did not have much to do and decided to listen to what the Lord Veola had to say.

"Once upon a time, two friends who were like brothers, one of them liked the art of the sword, while the other liked to create things. As they grew, the friendship deepened, one became a great royal knight, and the other became a great blacksmith.

The two became famous, each one created his own family, but one day, a tragedy fell on the blacksmith's family, his family was kidnapped by a group of villains, they demanded that the blacksmith make a powerful weapon for their leader, otherwise, they would kill the family of the blacksmith, even forging the weapon, the villains killed his relatives with the weapon that he forged.

Desolate, the blacksmith returned to the old house where he grew up, his knight friend saw that the blacksmith was strange and decided to ask what happened, knowing the story, the knight was furious, the blacksmith made a single request: please, my old man friend, take care.

Finishing to speak and delivering an item that was covered by a cloth, the blacksmith turned wandering aimlessly. The knight removed the cloth and saw a sword, in it were carved several patterns of strange runes that gleamed, wielding the sword, the knight and his followers invaded the lair of the villains, in the middle of the battle the knight discovered that the sword of the boss of the villains was similar to his, as if it were the second part of it.

But the knight did not have much time to think, killing the villain, but before dying the villain sent the sword flying to the horizon. After this battle, one of the blacksmith's last swords was lost, the other was lost in the flames of war. What did you think of the story, young adventurer?" Lord Veola told the story in a voice that only she and Liu Yang could hear.

"The story was very interesting, I wonder what you wanted to tell me about this story?"

"Nothing, I'm bored."

As they talked, the auctioneer's voice echoed.
