Lu Huayin and the three of them rested for a few more days. They didn't go out again in the past few days.
Someone in the middle came to look for them. It was the captain of a female mercenary team who had shared experiences with them before.
She came here to invite Lu Huayin and the three of them to join her team.
However, Lu Huayin simply rejected her proposal. Firstly, they could not stay here for too long, and secondly, joining other mercenary teams would not be as free as they are now.
"Okay, but if you change your mind, you can come to me at any time!"
After saying that, the woman left with a charming figure.
After the episode, Lu Huayin and the three of them embarked on their mission again.
The Zergs can never be killed, and the planets occupied by them are far more than just that one.
For nearly a month, the three of them spent time on the border battlefield.
Although there was no first accident in the process of hunting Zerg, the dangers they encountered were not less.
In this process, they have to face not only the threat of the Zerg, but also the frame-up from the same humans.
The shock they felt when encountering this kind of thing for the first time was beyond words.
At this time, why are some people still thinking about internal fighting, and everyone can't be consistent with the outside world?
Unfortunately, she couldn't understand the thoughts of those people.
After earning enough points, the three of them returned to the mercenary guild with injuries.
This time, the three of them can successfully upgrade their points to bronze level.
Rita was even more happy, her vision was really good this time.
These girls brought too many surprises to me.
If Lu Huayin's team is upgraded to bronze level, her status in the mercenary guild will also increase accordingly.
From now on, she no longer has to worry about being unemployed at any time. Even if the team she leads is not strong enough, she can be assigned to other jobs.
Rita, who was very ambitious in her career, was even more dedicated to Lu Huayin and the others. When she learned that an auction was about to begin, she immediately passed the news to them.
"auctions?"
Lu Huayin was confused. She had only heard about auctions when she was growing up, but she had never participated in one.
I heard Uncle Li say before that people from major families like to participate in some charity auctions to improve their family's reputation.
But those auctions were all about calligraphy, paintings, jewelry and the like.
The Lu family has received many invitations to auctions, but few people attend.
In the past, when Wang Jing was not kicked out of the Lu family, her favorite thing was to attend these banquets, auctions and other activities on behalf of the Lu family.
Later, she was kicked out of the Lu family and rarely had the opportunity to participate.
Uncle Li also gave Lu Huayin an invitation letter, but she was usually very busy and had no time to attend these boring banquets.
Besides, even if the direct line of the Lu family doesn't participate, there will be collateral lines.
So whether she goes or not has no impact on the family's reputation.
But she wouldn't think that the auction here was the same as the one at home, because this was a five-star auction.
This is an evil planet that combines sin and darkness, and we don’t know what will appear at the auction.
Thinking of this, she instantly became interested in this auction.
"Yes, it's the auction."
Leta nodded.
"This auction is held every six months, and any auction items may appear in it."
Rita explained the origin of the auction.
It turns out that this auction was not held by the mercenary guild.
The auction was held by another organization on the Five Black Stars, its name was Juyuan Auction House.
The name sounds nice, but this organization is not a good thing.
But now Lu Huayin doesn't know the specific appearance of the auction. Although she can make a rough guess, it's not like she hasn't seen it with her own eyes.
After listening to Lita's words, Lu Huayin asked doubtfully: "Since the auction is held by this big organization, we should not be qualified to participate."
They are just a small mercenary team, how can they be qualified to participate in the auction.
"Of course you don't have the qualifications to enter the private room, but I can still get the invitation letter from the lobby."
Rita said it wasn't a problem.
After all, she has been leading the mercenary guild for so many years, so she still has some connections.
Originally, this was her last resort, but now that her career has taken off, the retreat is naturally no longer needed.
In this case, it's better to send it out as a favor.
These three girls look like they are no ordinary people at first glance, and it would be nice to gain more favorability with them.
Everyone said this, so of course Lu Huayin understood what she meant, so she did not refuse Lita's kindness.
"Thank you. If we hadn't left, you could come to us anytime if you encounter something in the future."
The brief conversation instantly shortened the distance between them, and the eyes they looked at each other became much more sincere.
After conveying the news well, Lita said a few more words to Lu Huayin before leaving.
After they left, Tao Yuan came over curiously and asked them what they had said.
"What did you all say? Why do you feel so happy?"
There was obviously a smile on her face than before.
"It's nothing, she just said that there will be an auction in a few days, and we can go there and have a look."
"auctions!"
"I've never been to an auction."
Lu Huayin has never been there, let alone Taoyuan, where he was born as an orphan.
Not only had she never been there before, she had never even heard of it.
She knew about the auction because she heard about it from Lu Huayin.
"Just in time, we can take this opportunity to go over and have a look and learn more about it."
None of the three had objections to participating in the auction, and their opinions were quite unified.
"But what should we prepare for the auction?"
Having never participated before, Tao Yuan felt a little nervous.
Lu Huayin: “You don’t need to prepare anything, you just need to bring money.”
Although she has never been there, she still knows something about it.
The most important thing to look at in an auction is financial resources. Without money, everything is useless.
As soon as these words came out, Tao Yuan immediately covered his pocket.
It was really hard for her to save some money. At this moment, she had the idea not to go to the auction.
But in the end, curiosity won out. At worst, she would just buy nothing.
From the look on her face, Lu Huayin didn't say anything. She was afraid that she would be disappointed when she spoke.
Let Tao Yuan have good expectations for this auction.
Sang Zhi has also never participated in an auction, but she can clearly see what good things can be held at the auction held at Five Black Stars. Don't expect that all they will see are illegal products.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the day when the auction started.
In the meantime, Lita sent over an invitation to the auction. Although it was just a location in the lobby, it was still rare.
Because the items auctioned at this auction are quite special, most of them go there with their identities hidden.
Only a few people maintained their own strength and did not make any pretense.
Lu Huayin and the three of them dressed up in men's clothing, with masks on their faces and their voices changed.
When we arrived at the auction door by car, we saw many people queuing to go in.
The auction covers a very large area and is shaped like a honeycomb.
Most of the people lining up at the door were people with ordinary invitations like Lu Huayin. As for the holders of VIP invitations, there was a special channel for them to enter.
Not to mention, there were quite a lot of people attending the auction.
Lu Huayin has never seen so many people at the same time since he came to Wuheixing.
I'm afraid not all the people with a little bit of money from the Five Black Stars have come here.
She thought about it and felt that it was not impossible.
After all, the main purpose of running an auction is to make money, so how can they give up any of them.
Lu Huayin and the three of them had just stood in line when a farce started in front of them.
"Impossible, there is absolutely no way my invitation is fake!" A young man said in disbelief while holding up the invitation.
"I bought this from someone else at a high price!"
"Stop talking nonsense. We can't tell if it's true or false. Get out of here and don't block the road!"
The ticket inspector at the door was rude and even two men in black stepped forward to chase the man away.
"I'm not leaving, my invitation is genuine!"
The young man yelled at the top of his lungs and pulled at the door frame.
The people in black were also rude. If he didn't let go, they just removed his arm and then threw him far away without politeness.
After the trouble was resolved, the ticket inspector began to talk to everyone in a pleasant manner again.
"Okay, the troublemakers have been driven away. Let's continue."
Their thunderous methods shocked most people, and people in the queue did not dare to talk casually. They just prayed that they would get in quickly.
Because of everyone's cooperation, the invitations were checked very quickly, and soon it was Lu Huayin's turn.
There are three of them, so three invitations are needed.
After all, it is the location of the hall, and an invitation represents a seat.
Rita was very considerate. What she got were three invitations connected together.
After entering the auction house and walking through a long corridor, they arrived at the auction house.
The lights inside were dim and the atmosphere was very eerie and depressing.
However, due to the noisy chatter of everyone, the gloomy feeling has faded a lot.
In the middle of the auction room is a high platform where all the lots are displayed.
There are many seats in a fan-shaped section directly in front of the high platform, which are provided for ordinary guests.
There are many floors above the ordinary seats, which are all separate private rooms.
Lu Huayin and the others were located relatively far back, and their view was not very good.
However, this did not affect her view of the auction items, because there were several screens erected inside the auction hall, which allowed the audience to view the auction items at 360 degrees without any blind spots.
After Lu Huayin and the others sat down, they saw many people coming in one after another.
Half an hour before the auction started, almost all seats were taken.
“I didn’t expect so many people to come to the auction!”
Looking at the densely packed heads, Tao Yuan felt a little uncomfortable.
Silently complaining, she stretched her head and looked around.
Someone nearby saw her bumpkin look and secretly sneered.
"Auctions are becoming more and more difficult now. How come cats and dogs can come in?"
At first glance, this country bumpkin is not a person with a backing, and it doesn't matter what he says.
There is no shortage of people in this place to take care of the dishes. Newcomers like Tao Yuan are the most vulnerable to bullying.
However, the auction was about to start, and this person did not dare to be too presumptuous, so he only made a few remarks.
He was like this, and Tao Yuan didn't know what to say if he wanted to fight back. After all, his head had already been turned away.
She couldn't just run up to him and point at his nose and scold him.
She had no choice but to swallow her breath.
Lu Huayin felt helpless when she saw Tao Yuan's depressed look. There was really nothing they could do to deal with such a person.
Fortunately, the auction was about to begin, and their attention was diverted.
The auction begins, and bright lights shine on the woman who appears on the high platform.
The woman was wearing an exquisite cheongsam, with a graceful figure and a charming appearance that would make people lose their soul just by looking at her.
"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening, everyone. I am Wu Ji, the auctioneer of Juyuan Auction House."
As soon as Wu Ji spoke, the men present became even more infatuated with her.
Not only does she look charming, but her voice also has a seductive flavor.
Tao Yuan, the one with the weakest will, was almost seduced. If Lu Huayin hadn't slapped her, her saliva would have flowed out.
"Xiaoyuanzi, what's your future? You're drooling over a woman."
Although that woman is indeed a bit evil, she is not that exaggerated.
Hearing her words, Tao Yuan wiped his mouth subconsciously and was relieved when he found that there was nothing there.
"Boss, you can't blame me for this. Look at them, each of them is more outrageous than me."
Many people present fell into obsession and could not extricate themselves for a long time.
Finally, one person said unhappily: "Wuji, you use this trick every time!"
Don't you want to see them make a fool of themselves?
"Haha." Wu Ji covered her mouth and laughed sweetly.
"I'm used to it. I'm used to it. Please forgive me."
She said she was sorry, but Wuji's tone of voice was still the same as before.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and start quickly!" someone shouted impatiently.
Wu Ji glanced at the incomprehensible fool with some unhappiness, and then announced the start of the auction.
The first item on the lot was very ordinary, just a low-level energy dagger.
However, before Wu Ji's wonderful introduction, the dagger was still taken away by others at a price exceeding its price.
Then several more items were put up for auction one after another, all of which were very ordinary things.
The bidders were all sitting in the hall. As for the people in the private rooms, they made no sound from the beginning to the end.
It was still in the early stages of the auction, and Lu Huayin felt that no one in the private room had arrived yet.
According to normal procedures, they should arrive on the battlefield during the second half of the auction.
As for whether there will be missed lots, that is impossible, because the auction will provide the lot brochure for them to review in advance.
The auction is still going on, and the value of the items is not high now, so one item after another is going very quickly.
There is almost no need to wait long for a lot to be finished.
Lu Huayin and the other three didn't buy anything. Lu Huayin didn't have anything he was interested in, while Tao Yuan and Sang Zhi were short of money.
Listening to others raising prices again and again, they were shocked to realize that they were still very poor!
