There was an auction, which Zhang Xiaoman had never thought of before coming.
It's interesting to say that he had never been exposed to this kind of scene either before or after he obtained extraordinary powers.
The word auction seems to have only been heard in various TV series and inside.
Suddenly learning that there was an auction here, Zhang Xiaoman naturally could not remain indifferent.
He was also curious about what kind of treasures he could see at the auction on Skull Star.
"Since there is an auction, I will naturally go and take a look. But Ziwei, the auction will start in three hours. Do you think we can participate now? I mean as a seller."
"As a seller? Jiexing, do you want to sell something? If you sell materials normally, you can just go to the store and sell them. There is no need to go to the auction. After all, there is an extra handling fee of 3. Unless it’s a very precious item”
Ziwei's eyes moved, and he suddenly thought of something, and said anxiously:
"Ji Xing, you don't want to sell that batch of God-casting rocks, right? Let me tell you, the God-casting rocks are a good thing for making equipment, especially the batch of God-casting rocks you have is quite large. If you add them all together, you can definitely forge a full-body suit! Really, believe me, don’t sell it, it would be such a waste!”
Zhang Xiaoman smiled when he heard this and said:
"Haha, Ziwei, don't worry. I don't want to sell the God-casting Rock. I want to sell another batch of things. If possible, I'd better sell it today. I'm afraid there will be a lot of money needed next. Just use them to replenish my wallet."
"Another batch of stuff? What is it?"
Ziwei said in confusion.
Zhang Xiaoman thought for a while, and then whispered two words in her ear.
"Stardust."
"Stardust!?"
Ziwei was suddenly startled and looked at him with an incredulous expression.
"Ji Xing, you actually have star dust on your body? Oh my God, where did you get so many good things!?"
Zhang Xiaoman lowered his voice and coughed:
"Keep your voice down, you are so old, don't be surprised. Do you think we can reserve a place for the auction? I have about ten pieces that need to be sold."
"Ten points!"
Ziwei suddenly became furious again, and all his beautiful purple hair stood on end, just like a frightened cat.
Zhang Xiaoman looked at her helplessly. How could this woman be frightened so easily? She didn't look like she had lived for hundreds of years.
Look at McAvey, who is also several hundred years old. Compared to her, I don't know how calm he is.
After a long while, Ziwei came back to his senses.
"If it's normal, we will definitely no longer be able to provide lots three hours before the auction starts. You have to make an appointment at least five days in advance so that the auction house has time to push your items."
"But since you are selling stardust, you can definitely participate at any time. This thing is hard currency countless times harder than spiritual crystals. There are a large number of people wanting to buy it anytime, anywhere!"
"Also, what do you mean by how old you are! Am I very old!? I am only 322 years old this year! I am still young! Don't look at me using the lifespan system of low-level civilizations. ! We are over three hundred years old and still just adults, okay!"
As Ziwei said something, he suddenly realized something and explained with an unhappy look on his face.
Zhang Xiaoman was slightly startled. Even if she is a woman, she is really sensitive to age issues. She just said it casually.
"Okay, okay, I said the wrong thing."
He quickly apologized.
But at this time, he also came back to his senses.
He is no longer in a place like the Erin Continent. In a place like the Dark Star Alliance, let alone the Darklings, even the average lifespan of ordinary citizens cannot be the same as what he knows.
As Ziwei said, someone who is over three hundred years old may really be just a child who has just grown up.
The two did not discuss the age issue for too long. After Ziwei expressed his dissatisfaction, he got down to business.
She opened her personal terminal and fiddled with it for a while. Then she seemed to have forgotten what happened just now and said with a smile:
"It's done! I've already made an appointment for you. Look, there's a message from the auction house asking us to meet at the auction house."
"Oh? So fast?"
Zhang Xiaoman glanced at her personal terminal, vaguely saw the reply from the auction house, and immediately felt relieved.
"But having said that, Ji Xing, that's ten pieces of stardust. Do you really want to sell it all? This thing is usually priceless, and others can't buy it even if they want to."
"How about you don't sell them all and leave a portion for me. Don't worry, I will definitely buy it from you at a price above the market price so that you won't suffer a loss."
Ziwei expressed the desire to buy it too.
Zhang Xiaoman knew what she meant. He had also paid attention to the information on the Internet before coming here. The official price ratio of Stardust was 1:50000000 Spirit Crystal.
When he was in the original space, Zhang Xiaoman once learned about stardust from Naifaya. It is said that it is one of the most hard-to-pass currencies here, and even many dark spirits cannot possess it.
Zhang Xiaoman then gave the other party some stardust, which made the latter very excited.
In addition to the fact that Naifaya is a poor and desperate angel on the run, this also shows that the value of Stardust is indeed high enough.
Now, judging from Ziwei's performance, it is really the same thing.
Stardust in his hands is just a white item that can be extracted every day, but it is so precious here.
One portion is worth fifty million star coins, which Zhang Xiaoman did not expect.
From this point of view, I have a lot of funds in my hands, and it will become easier to purchase resources here in the future.
Zhang Xiaoman and Ziwei went to the auction house through the teleportation point, while Akatus and Sirna separated temporarily and went to a nearby store to select equipment.
They also have a lot of money on hand now, which may not be enough compared to the value of Stardust.
But 5 million star coins is a rare and huge amount of money for an ordinary Dark Soul user, enough for them to buy many of their favorite items.
On the way, Zhang Xiaoman asked Ziwei about Xingchen again.
There must be a reason why this thing has such a high value and is still priceless.
"Hehe, don't you know? In fact, the role of stardust is far more than just currency and materials. It actually has another name, Dream Ning Powder."
"Ningmeng powder? What does that mean?"
"Here we have a profession called dreamers. Their number is very small, and they hardly receive any business on weekdays. But as long as these people receive work, they will definitely make a lot of money!"
Ziwei began to explain what happened between Ningmengfen and the Dream Master.
"Generally speaking, dream masters are held by spiritual masters who are rare among dark spirits. Their job content is only one, and that is dreaming!"
"Dream masters have strong mental power and master the corresponding shallow consciousness control methods, so they can control their dreams very accurately. In other words, they can dream whatever they want."
Zhang Xiaoman scratched his head, he still didn't understand the connection between this and Xingchen.
Speaking of which, the dream master's ability seems quite strange. According to a popular saying on Aquamarine, "everything can be found in dreams."
But he also knew that things couldn't be that simple. If the dream master was just dreaming, how could he become a profession?
Zhang Xiaoman did not interrupt, but continued to listen to Ziwei.
"If there were no Dream Ning fans, then the career of a Dream Master might just be to dream, and then use dream projection equipment to shoot or produce some movies, TV shows, games and the like."
"But with the existence of Dream Ning Powder, dream masters are very powerful. They can use Dream Ning Powder to extract things from dreams!"
"Condensing dreams, turning fiction into reality! As long as you dare to think, as long as you dare to dream, then anything in the dream can be turned into reality by the dream master! This is the power of Dream Condensation Powder!"
When Ziwei said this, he couldn't help but show a look of yearning on his face.
Zhang Xiaoman was also surprised.
"Is this dream master so powerful? According to this, doesn't it mean that you can create something out of nothing, and you can have whatever you want?"
Hearing this, Ziwei nodded first, then shook his head and said:
"That being said, there are still many restrictions for dream masters. For example, if you want to condense an item in a dream into reality, the amount of dream powder you need to spend depends on its rationality and other attributes. It’s irrelevant”
"For example, if you want to condense a dark spirit material, the first factor to consider for the success of the condensation is its strength. If you want to condense a level 5 material from a portion of Dream Condensation Powder, that is obviously not possible. possible."
“Secondly, in addition to the strength of the condensed item, its rationality must also be taken into consideration, including: the name, origin, association, characteristics, etc. The more logical and consistent with the laws of the universe, the greater the success rate of the condensed item. "
"So, in fact, the Dream Master is not as omnipotent as you think."
Ziwei concluded.
When Zhang Xiaoman heard this, he finally understood.
All in all, the reason why the value of stardust is so high is not only that it is a precious material in itself, but also has nothing to do with the existence of the Dream Master. In a sense, the two can be said to complement each other.
After listening to Ziwei's explanation, he became interested in the profession of dream master.
After all, he has a lot of stardust. Compared to others, Zhang Xiaoman can get it at will.
In this case, if you can master the ability of the dream master, it will definitely be of great help to you in the future.
He decided to wait until the matter here was over and find an opportunity to understand the situation.
While talking, the two of them had already entered a huge circular exhibition hall.
This is the auction house in the trading center, and a grand auction will start here in three hours.
Like other places on Skull Planet, the overall environment of the auction house also belongs to the patchwork cyberpunk style.
It seems that on this planet, except for the Dark Souls Association that Zhang Xiaoman visited before, which has a somewhat sci-fi feel, other places seem to have nothing to do with the advanced civilization planet in the impression.
The time now is morning on this planet, and there is still a lunch gap between the auction.
Zhang Xiaoman and Ziwei were not in a hurry to enjoy the delicious food. Instead, they entered the backstage of the auction house and began to interact with the staff here.
"Hello, you two, I am the director of the Astral Traveler Auction House, Alexa, Alicia, Christos Noble, you can call me Alex."
The speaker was a creature whose entire body was made of blue starlight.
In fact, it's a bit reluctant to call him a living thing. If it weren't for his humanoid outline, Zhang Xiaoman would even think that he was just a ball of fluorescent powder floating in the air.
"This is the Void Spirit Clan. The name is very long, but we usually only remember the first two characters."
Ziwei whispered.
Zhang Xiaoman nodded to express his understanding, otherwise it would be too short.
"Two distinguished guests, Your Majesty the Powerful Controller, thank you very much for coming. I heard that you have stardust that you need to consign. I wonder if you can let me take a look."
Alei's body was wrapped in circles of cloth, which looked like they should be his clothes. They were swaying with the vibration of his body as he spoke.
"Shifen Stardust, can your bank take over? I need to sell it as quickly as possible, at today's auction."
Zhang Xiaoman said as he took out ten bottles of stardust from the storage ring and placed them neatly on the table in front of him.
The moment these stardust were taken out, the eyes of several people in the room couldn't help but widen.
Of course, except for Zhang Xiaoman and Ziwei, the other creatures here seem to have no "eyes" organ, but this does not prevent them from showing their shocked emotions.
I saw that the ethereal spirits headed by Ya Lei all looked like their bodies were shaking, and the fluorescent lights on their bodies were beating constantly, showing their inner unrest.
"What a perfect work of art! Look at these Atama Crystal Dusts. They are so beautiful and powerful. Being able to see so many Atama Crystal Dusts at one time is really a gift from the God of the Void to me!"
Ya Lei's whole body was almost pressed against those bottles. Judging from his tone, he seemed to enjoy this feeling very much.
Seeing Zhang Xiaoman's slightly puzzled look, Ziwei came over and explained in a low voice:
"Atama is what these ethereal spirits call stardust. They believe that stardust comes from the broken product of a crystal called Atama. It is said that these ethereal spirits can use stardust to enhance their own power."
