311: Chapter 310: Skill Book 311: Chapter 310: Skill Book “Fancy a slap?

If you can’t afford it, get lost promptly, don’t be an eyesore at the auction!”

Su Ran disdainfully sneered at Taciturn.

“You!”

Taciturn, who had shot himself in the foot, was red-faced with anger, “You’re trying to provoke me, but I won’t fall for it, you may keep the equipment!”

“Ha, truth is, you’re broke!

Look at you, an elite of the Tiger Supreme guild, can’t even fork out over a thousand gold coins.

Truly laughable!

Moreover, spending hundreds of gold coins for a pretty girl’s smile, worth it!

Why would I need to use a crude provocation tactic on you?

I’m telling you the truth, quit your babbling!

Scram!”

Su Ran barked, startling the players nearby who were purchasing auction items.

Taciturn’s face alternated between green and white, infuriated to the point of shivering.

Yet, he couldn’t do anything to Su Ran.

This was a safe zone, and that dreadful Overturning Water was a VIP here!

And right now, there was a pretty boy laughing at his expense.

Losing face in front of a woman was an absolute no!

If word got out, his reputation would be ruined!

“Whoosh!”

1,500 gold coins disappeared in a blink, and a golden robe appeared in Taciturn’s hands.

“Look kid, see?

Grandpa here has money!

Thinking of competing with me, do you even weigh your own worth!”

Taciturn showed off his newly-acquired magic robe with a triumphant look.

Although he had spent 1,500 gold coins, it felt damn good!

He was quite sure that Su Ran must be fuming.

“Dunce, knowing it’s a provocation and still buying, with such intellect, really makes people antsy!”

Su Ran sighed and looked at Taciturn with a hint of pity, shaking his head.

“Yeah, honestly, he’s a warrior, buying a high priced robe that he can’t even use, his brain must be missing a few wires!”

The pretty boy giggled behind his hands, barely able to hold back his laughter.

“Moreover, this robe is just a level 30 item.

It’ll soon be obsolete.

Yet, some idiot has spent more than a thousand gold coins on it.

There truly are more fools than money!”

Su Ran ruthlessly added fuel to the fire.

“None of your business!

It’s my money, I can spend it how I want!”

Taciturn, shamed into anger, had red-rimmed eyes.

Being laughed at even after spending so much money, who was he to complain to?!

The robe in his hands now felt increasingly awkward.

He quickly stowed it away in his bag, out of sight, out of mind.

“Ah, Overturning Water, I was startled when you bid 1,499 gold coins.

What if this fool didn’t take the bait?

That lover ten grand would be down the drain!”

The pretty boy teased Taciturn openly, revealing a lingering fear.

“Didn’t you call him a fool?

Then what’s there to worry about?”

Su Ran chuckled, turning to walk towards another showcase.

“Just you wait!”

Taciturn couldn’t bear to stay any longer.

He feared he wouldn’t resist killing the pestering player in the black robe.

The fury in his eyes seemed as if it were to take a tangible form, his teeth chattering in anger.

He restrained his explosive emotions and shot Su Ran a fierce glance before spinning around to leave.

“Come back again!”

Su Ran waved at Taciturn’s retreating figure.

Taciturn staggered, but didn’t look back, walking straight out of the auction house.

“Hey, were you serious about buying the robe for me?”

After the irritating Taciturn left, the pretty boy asked nonchalantly, his translucent ears perking up.

“Just kidding.”

“…”

Suddenly.

A young lad rushed in from outside, looked around, and immediately headed towards an empty showcase.

The young player’s running noises successfully drew the attention of most players in the area, with all eyes fixated on him.

He reached the showcase, pulled out a skill book, placed it inside with reverence, and began setting the price.

A Skill Book!

A few players at the scene exclaimed in whispers.

If it was a high level skill book, that’d be a real treasure!

Soon, the young player became the center of attention as dozens of players rushed towards him.

They all had the same thought in mind—if it’s cheap, buy it outright!

Fireball Spell, current bid: 0 gold.

Base price: 1 gold.

Buy Now price: 10 gold.

Time remaining: 1440 minutes.

“Ahem!

Just a Fireball Spell, does it need to be auctioned?”

A flash of disappointment crossed the faces of the players who had approached in hopes of grabbing a bargain when they saw the Fireball Spell, an item that nobody wanted because it was common among mages.

What a waste of auction fees!

A dozen players shook their heads and walked away, moving towards other display cases in hope of finding some good deals.

But the player didn’t stop, he pulled out more Skill Books from his bag, a total of five to six, and placed them in the display case.

“So many!”

With astonished shouts, players craned their necks for a better look, hoping to see Advanced Skill Books.

“Everyone, please wait, don’t crowd.

I have brought around 30 Skill Books here today, I hope you all will like them!”

The young gamer was shy and soft-spoken, sounding just like a young child.

“What?

More than thirty?”

“Buddy, add me as a friend.

If you have any secret manuals, I will buy them first, okay?”

“Kid, where did you get so many Skill Books from?

These Skill Books are notoriously hard to obtain!”

“Young man, did you find a secret location where Skill Books often appear?”

…

The players threw questions at him like reporters interviewing a celebrity.

Even the players who had walked away earlier returned upon hearing the news, crowding back in.

“Brothers and sisters, please calm down.

Your questions involve private information which I cannot disclose, I’m sorry.”

The youngster scratched his head and made an embarrassed face, appearing to be overwhelmed by the gamers’ enthusiasm.

“Well, can you tell us if you’ll have a chance to get this many Skill Books in the future?”

An adult player asked eagerly.

“Oh, about that, I can tell you there won’t be any more chances.

These are all the Skill Books I have, I’ve cleaned them out!”

The young player held his head high, proud and full of spirit.

But of course, who wouldn’t be proud with this many Skill Books in his possession?

After all, they represented a fortune!

“Sigh!”

The fire in the adult gamer’s eyes instantly disappeared.

He gave out a sigh, his thoughts unknown.

Regardless, the audience’s enthusiasm continued to rise as each Skill Book was displayed.

They often gasped in astonishment, but not a single player made a purchase.

Why?

They were too expensive!

They were hoping for a bargain, but it turns out, this immature player was a true profiteer!

“Huh?

Why are all the Skill Books for mages?”

Su Ran muttered.

The player did bring out a number of Skill Books, but why was there not a single one for warriors?

What puzzled him even more was that there were exactly four copies of each Skill Book.

Does this mean that this harmless-looking young player still has many Skill Books left in his bag!
