When Yi Tianchen returned to Box 13, it was already seven fifty-five in the evening.
At this moment, the Auction Hall was filled with players from various Main Cities, and those who could sit here were certainly not ordinary players. The One Hundred Thousand Seats had ticket prices ranging from 10 to 100 gold coins. While there were quite a few spectators just there for the excitement, they were definitely not in the majority.
At seven fifty-nine...
As the lights in the hall suddenly dimmed, four high-definition screens hanging in the center lit up simultaneously, revealing a figure.
This was the host of the auction.
It was said that this person was recommended by Proud Dragon, a close friend of his in real life, named Mo Ziwen, nicknamed Mosquito. He had never liked studying since childhood but possessed excellent speaking skills and an innate flair for performance.
Due to his family's financial struggles, he left home early to work in another city. Although he was articulate, he was also overly honest. While other employees quietly took advantage of the Boss, he bravely stood up to criticize their wrongdoings.
As a result, he naturally became the scapegoat.
Life was tough, but it wasn't that honest people always suffered; rather, dishonest people became increasingly ruthless. After enduring countless hardships, he remained unrepentant, believing that one should live with integrity. At twenty-four years old, he had never managed to deceive anyone into being his girlfriend.
However, he had been tricked into buying things for his friends' girlfriends multiple times...
Later on, in despair, he returned to Guilin and inadvertently received guidance from Proud Dragon. He entered the game Zero Era and became a genuine lifestyle player, working diligently every day and managing to make ends meet through luck.
Eventually...
In Liu Yuhan's words, people like him were becoming increasingly rare; saving one was worth it. Thus, the role of host for the Auction House naturally fell to him, marking his transition from an amateur player to a professional one.
...
Returning to the present moment, Mo Ziwen may have looked average but stood tall at about six feet. His years of hard work had made him quite sturdy. There was an undeniable spirit of defiance in his demeanor, but at this moment, he felt more excitement and nervousness.
"Good evening, friends and brothers and sisters!"
With a classic opening line, Mo Ziwen tried to maintain his composure and continued, "The Mist and Rain Auction House's Server-wide First Auction organized by Mist and Rain Commerce is about to begin. I am honored to stand here today as the host of this auction."
"At this highly anticipated Server-wide First Auction, I will strive to present you with an unforgettable auction experience. As the clock ticks closer to the hour, let us give a warm round of applause for President Light Cold Evening Snow of Mist and Rain Commerce to officially announce the start of this auction!"
"Alright~"
In Box 13, Li Tielong let out a hearty laugh and was the first to applaud. The sound system in the box immediately echoed with thunderous applause from the main hall outside. Unlike reality, the soundproofing in this game’s box was remarkable, as if a mute button had been pressed.
As the screen switched, Liu Yuhan appeared in casual attire, wearing a classical teal silk gown. Her elegant and ethereal appearance resembled a fairy who had accidentally wandered into the mortal realm, instantly capturing the attention of countless onlookers.
At least the sudden silence confirmed this!
Time quickly jumped to 8:07 PM, but Liu Yuhan's speech was still ongoing. She provided detailed introductions from the initial material collection to the later formation of the Chamber and future development plans, even giving a brief commercial for the Auction House.
Surprisingly, despite Liu Yuhan's lengthy talk and extensive content, no one expressed dissatisfaction. After all, everyone had come from afar to participate in the auction, not to listen to an elaborate explanation of various business initiatives.
What could be done? A beautiful woman should have this effect!
Finally, after reminiscing about the past, discussing the present, and envisioning the future, Liu Yuhan returned to the main topic and solemnly announced, "I now declare that the first server-wide auction hosted by Mist and Rain Commerce and Mist and Rain Auction House officially begins!"
"Wow~"
Applause and cheers erupted... It must be said that everyone was quite enthusiastic...
The scene shifted again, revealing Mo Ziwen dressed formally on a stage, holding a bidding gavel. He stated earnestly, "It is my honor to preside over this auction. Now... what will be the first item up for bid?"
"It can't be a Guild Token, right?" Not a Master exclaimed.
Beside him, The Terminator of Regrets scoffed and facepalmed, saying, "Of course not. How could something as important as a Guild Token be put up for auction first? That’s reserved for the grand finale."
"Uh~"
Not a Master bit his lip in silence and began doodling circles on the coffee table...
Meanwhile, Yi Tianchen savored his freshly brewed Pu'er tea while pondering what the first auction item might be.
"Sigh~ Following normal reasoning, this first auction item can't be that great..." Yesterday's Fireworks sighed but wore a smile, clearly just trying to set the mood. He added, "If it were up to me to prepare it, I would make it something completely unexpected."
"Haha~ That's not bad!"
Li Tielong squinted and looked around, chuckling, "This item is something we've been thinking about for a long time before deciding to reveal it. It's definitely going to blow your minds!"
Yi Tianchen was taken aback. This guy was suddenly so smug; it probably meant whatever he had wasn't anything good...
Sure enough, just as everyone was exchanging words, with a command from Mo Ziwen, the four high-definition screens simultaneously switched to the first auction item... To everyone's surprise, it was a small red glass vial, the familiarity of which was almost maddening.
Next to it was a detailed text description---
【Health Potion (Level 1)】: Instantly restores 100 Health Points upon use. Cannot be used simultaneously with similar items. Cooldown: 10 seconds.
That's right, it was the First-Level Life Potion that could be bought in bulk at the System's pharmacy, with a nationwide retail price of 10 Copper Coins. The venue immediately erupted into a tsunami of laughter... Who would have thought that the first item in this Server-wide First Auction would be something like this?
"What the hell—"
Yesterday's Fireworks exclaimed, "Who came up with this? It's just too bizarre."
Li Tielong continued to laugh heartily, clearly having a hand in this, while Yi Tianchen nearly spat out his Pu'er tea...
