Chapter 116 - [Bonus ]Auction(6)
Neatwit went on to clear his infamy by paying a price at the temple , NPC 's did not take kindly to those with high infamy .
He wondered about wether or not should he tell Rudra about his past. And his real identity, he initially had no plans to join a guild , or any organisations , however something about the carefree Rudra on the road to the capital singing songs and dancing captivated him ..... He longed for that carefree life, after the bandit attack , and seeing Rudra's strength he was convinced about the man , that it was his strength that let him be soo carefree ..... Hence he decided to follow the man .
When the live feed of the Demolitionboys guild leader name dropped the Ambani group , it was then that Neatwit realized that his presence had brought trouble to the guild.
However he was having soo much fun in the guild , where he had found a sense of belonging that he did not wish to quit. He decided to contribute to the guild to the best of his abilities and even sent Rudra a lump sum of 5 million gold to help the guild in the coming auction.
It was partly because of his guilt , and partly because he was tired of running away now ..... Soon it will be time for his revenge , and when he became a trillionare, he naturally wanted the Elites to have a share of the pie. The seventh super guild , did not sound too bad did it?
But still the waters ahead were not smooth, and Neatwit knew that , hence he decided that after the auction , he would sit with Rudra one on one and discuss openly about the future , should Rudra choose to not take part in the coming mess , he would quietly leave.
However should he choose to take his side , then he would naturally repay the favor once he was a trillionare. The attempt to meet him today meant that his father was getting impatient now . Well soo was he.

( Back in the auction )
The atmosphere in the VIP room one was soo joyous that all three members were dancing.
Yes there was the auction continuing downstairs , with people fervently bidding and trying to win items in the next segment , yet the wealthiest party inside VIP1 did not even pay attention to what items were out for bidding as the three were dancing.
Karna and Fatty absolutely had no idea, how great the machine was , exept that it was epic grade which shocked them ,? but seeing Rudra soo elated made them very happy? .
The three were singing the song Fireball and dancing in circles.
Especially fatty , he sang in a highpitch like some opera singer
'Now baby get your booty naked, take off all your clothes
And light the roof on fire
Tell her, tell her baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby
I'm on fire
I tell her baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby
I'm a fireball'
They sang while shaking their butts .? Yep , they were twerking !
It was then that Karna had a wierd thought and stopped dancing.
What would happen if someone from the outside saw them shaking their butts in VIP1
The guild leader , vice guild leader and the chief Blacksmith of the True Elites guild? , inside the VIP room of an auction , shaking their butts singing a song , while the auction was ongoing.
Embarrassing ..... Too embarrassing .
But as he saw the other two idiots , he thought , naw F*** it? , im gonna dance too !
After a good 15 minutes of celebration , they decided to give their bums a break and refocus their attention on the auction.
A lot of items had been sold and currently the last section of the common items was up for auctioning.
It was a skill book? dark gold grade
[ Skill book : Blink ] ( Dark gold ) : Teleport to any spot within a 5 meter range of user , upon activation instantly
Cooldown time : 5 minutes
Caution :Takes Heavy toll on stamina
Initial bid price : 80,000 gold
Minimum increment: 5000 gold
Buyout price : 400, 000 gold.
Currently the bid was ongoing at? 100,000 gold!
120,000 gold !
140,000 gold!
Anyone knew the value of this skill in PVP. It was a priceless skill to own , and Rudra from his past life experiences knew the worth of this skill .
He needed to have it for himself at any cost.
200,000 came the bid from VIP 2 , everyone fell silent hearing the bid.
300,000 came the bid from VIP1
Scorpio was in a turmoil now , he had bought 7 skill books in the last 10 minutes , and spent close to 1.5 million in funds , they needed the funds to compete for the important 10 items that were coming.
The 300,000 saved here would go a long way.
He really wanted the skill for himself , but showed restraint for the greater good of the alliance.
The fairy waited for other bids but seeing none she said
' 300,000 gold going once
300,000 gold going twice
300,000 gold going thrice ! Sold to the gentleman in VIP box 1 '.
Booyah! Rudra rejoiced , a great skill was added in his arsenal!
Finally the 40 common items auction came to an end , and it was time for the special items auction to start . Everyone below a second rate guild who did not have funds over 2 million sighed , they were nothing more than spectators now.
Whereas the various second rate guilds and the two VIP boxes got serious , the real auction was about to start now!
The fairy annoucned ' Moving on to the second segment of the auction , we have some extraordinary items for you guys to bid from , there will be no buyout prices in this segment , we wish every bidder a very good bidding experience'.
The first item was brought to the stage.
[ Electric Net ] ( Dark gold) :- a net used to capture mounts in the wild for the very first time.
Immobilizes the target , making them less likely to submit and thwarts escape attempts.
Initial price : 3 million gold
Minimum increment : 100,000 gold.
It was the mount capturing electric net , with an initial price of 3 million gold!
Rudra knew the importance of this net , but with the entire True Elites guild aldready having mounts , he did not see the immediate need of buying this product.
But knowing that he could resell it for 9 million gold easily in the future with the expansion pack of flying mounts in the future, he was willing to fork out 6 as a long time investment.
The bidding for the electric net began
3 million came a call from a second rate guild , it was probably all of their funds , they would have to drop out after one or two minimum increments.
However before any smaller guilds could even squabble , 4 million came the sound from VIP1
Loud gasps were heard in the audience
5 million came the sound from VIP 2
Everyone turned towards VIP2 .... the two bigshots had finally started the bidding war .
The second rate guilds knew they had no chance now , and hence they resigned to watching the show ..... Just how would it turn out?
The alliance needed the net much more than anyone out there , they understood the need for mounts , and good natured ones at that.? A few of their members had mounts , hence they understood the complications that came with getting good ones , they were too expensive for direct purchase and too hard to capture without proper tools.
They needed this net ,much more than others. They needed to quickly fill their players ranks with mounts to gain a better grip on levlling grounds , they were willing to purchase the item uptill 7 million gold.
6 million , came the shout from VIP1
7 million came the counter from scorpio . Everyone was shocked at the intense bidding , the increments were of a million from each side ..... It was almost like the auction uptill this point was a fake auction.
Scorpio knew that this was his limit , even a minimum increment of 100,000 and he was out , he pushed for a million raise at once because he wanted to deter the enemy , thinking they were too interested in the item.
Should Rudra bid 8 million , he would loose out on 900,000 gold at once as he would let go at 7.1 million
Should he not bid , 7 million was aldready acceptable to him. Either way he would win.
But Rudra did not bid again
The alliance won the bid for the first item at 7 million gold!
