Survival in the Mist: From a Dilapidated Wooden Hut to a Heavenly Palace in the Clouds

Chapter 119 Strange Auction



Chapter 119 Strange Auction

This title?

Will you regret attending?

Mo Ming rubbed his eyes and looked at it several times to make sure he wasn't seeing things before he calmed down and started thinking.

Do they even want survivors to participate?

If people will regret it, then who would want to participate?

You...

Or is it... a case of trying to hide something obvious?

This method sparks the survivors' curiosity, allowing them to participate in the auction.

But is it necessary?

If you simply announce an auction in the announcement, at least 8% of the survivors, if not all, will actively prepare to participate.

There's really no need to go to such lengths and come up with such a title.

Mo Ming felt that this matter was definitely not that simple, and that some unexpected and terrible things might happen.

However... he will still try to gather more Ancient Spirit Coins to participate.

For no other reason than the bronze cauldron base from last time!

[A large-scale auction that you will absolutely regret attending]

Auction countdown: 3 hours 23 minutes

Target audience: All living beings in the Mist World

Auction method: Real-name auction

Registration fee: 1 Ancient Coins

The notice was very concise, consisting of only four lines.

However, within these simple four lines, two lines left Mo Ming feeling utterly perplexed.

All living beings?

Was it just a casual remark, or was it meant to be pointed at?

The first thing that came to Mo Ming's mind was the orcs he had been encountering frequently lately!

Surely they can't be auctioned off like that, can they?

Furthermore, this auction requires participants to register with their real names, whereas in the past they were all anonymous. Wouldn't this expose their personal information?

And there's a registration fee of 1 Ancient Coins, which is no small amount.

Something was definitely off.

But after thinking it over, Mo Ming decided to give it a try. He would spend 10,000 yuan to see what it was like and satisfy his curiosity to see if this strange auction would make him regret his decision.

There are still more than three hours until the auction, so there's still time to get things done.

Mo Ming first dissected the seven Green Peak Wolves' corpses, and then took the wolf teeth, claws, and fur to the exchange shop to exchange them for Ancient Spirit Coins.

The remaining meat was given to the pets.

Then......

Then it was time to get the two space packs from Wu Gang and Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan's armband and Wu Gang's backpack each only had 10 cubic meters of space, and the resources inside were mostly ordinary daily necessities and weapons.

The only thing that caught Mo Ming's attention was the black iron plaque in their spatial bag, which had the three large characters "Iron Mountain Alliance" engraved on it.

"The Iron Mountain Alliance?"

It seems that the shelter shown on the regional map, 30 kilometers away from Stone Mountain, is their gathering place.

Since it's an alliance, there should be quite a few people, so shouldn't there only be one shelter?

Or is this just a temporary base for them?

It seems that dominating this large area and taking all the resources for oneself will not be easy!

The Minotaur Asya tribe, the Goat-headed Romani tribe, the Monkey-faced Bista tribe, and now the Iron Mountain Alliance has arrived. Mo Ming is feeling immense pressure!

This matter requires further consideration!

Then, he took out the three treasure chests of different colors from his spatial ring and placed them in front of him.

The treasure chest appears to be significantly larger than the resource chest, measuring approximately 80 centimeters in length, 60 centimeters in width, and around 40 centimeters in height.

Mo Ming's gaze was first drawn to the leftmost golden box, which was secured with a golden padlock.

But there was no key. But that was no problem. The Demon-Suppressing Sword flashed.

pat!

The golden lock fell to the ground with a sound.

Just to be on the safe side, Mo Ming didn't use his hands to open it. Instead, he inserted the Demon-Suppressing Sword into the gap in the box and pried it open with force. The lid was easily lifted.

The moment the lid was opened, a golden light flashed out, and Mo Ming's mouth stretched into a wide grin.

The box was filled to the brim with golden Ancient Coins.

Above the Ancient Coin are four golden cards that look very valuable.

Mo Ming picked up the card; the back of the card was engraved with an ancient spirit coin as a symbol.

The front is engraved with "[Storage Card]".

The item placed together with the Ancient Spirit Coins is probably for storing Ancient Spirit Coins, but how many Ancient Spirit Coins are in there?

Or is it just something that can be used for storage, and actually contains nothing?

Mo Ming activated his bracelet and entered the Ancient Spirit Coin Exchange, the only place directly related to Ancient Spirit Coins.

Maybe we can find the answer.

Enter "stored coin card" in the search bar and search!

And it actually worked! Following the instructions, Mo Ming quickly arrived at an interface he had never entered before.

Why does it look a bit like an ATM?

Mo Ming suddenly remembered the ATMs in the original world, whose user interfaces were extremely similar.

Mo Ming aligned the stored-coin card with the recognition area, and a few seconds later, the screen displayed the message "Recognition successful".

The card balance also appeared: 500000 Ancient Coins.

"50 million?!"

Mo Ming's eyes and mouth were wide open; he had never seen so much money before!

There were three more of the same storage cards, and Mo Ming excitedly checked them one by one.

Of the remaining three, only one is for 50, and the other two are for 10.

"Get rich! Get rich!"

Mo Ming checked the deposit and withdrawal of Ancient Spirit Coins on each card and, after finding no problems, was completely relieved.

Then he deposited his original savings, as well as a box of Ancient Spirit Coins from the treasure chest, into the coin storage card.

Mo Ming's current Gu Ling Coin assets amount to more than 1.4 million.

We set aside 500,000 to upgrade the shelter, and we still have nearly 1 million left to use!

It seems that tonight's big auction will make it hard to keep a low profile!

Strength doesn’t allow it!

Mo Ming has decided that if he encounters any more fragments of bronze artifacts, he will bid for them no matter the cost, even if it exposes his identity as Mo Ming, since they don't know the true strength of his shelter anyway.

The acquisition of bronze artifacts in the shelter is currently the highest priority. Mo Ming vaguely feels that the bronze artifacts seem to be intricately connected to the secrets of the past in the Misty World.

The eerie Buddha statue, the wooden war machine, the mind-altering demon, and that damned Horn. All of these people have some connection to bronze artifacts.

To figure these things out, it is necessary to continuously collect fragments of bronze artifacts.

This coincides with the conditions for the special upgrade of the Momin Shelter.

The second treasure chest is entirely light blue.

Mo Ming immediately took out the analyzer to perform the analysis.

【Azure Stone Treasure Chest】

Description: A treasure chest made of aquamarine, capable of storing paper materials that will not decay for a hundred years!

Aquamarine?

It was another rare and wonderful item. At this point, Mo Ming could guess what was probably inside the aquamarine treasure chest.

It's nothing more than books, letters, and the like; it definitely won't be Ancient Coins.

But after cutting off the lock and opening the lid, Mo Ming became restless again!

"Three scrolls?"

The one in the middle looks so familiar.
