Chapter 270 Auction

Deadwater Murloc Village in Deadwater Oasis.

The atmosphere of the Winter Veil Festival gradually reached its climax, and the inauguration ceremony of the Deadwater Murloc Village began at this time.

The inauguration ceremony was arranged by Yang Yi himself. The whole process was very simple and mainly divided into three parts.

First, there was the arena competition in the morning, then the ribbon-cutting ceremony at noon, and finally the auction in the afternoon.

The whole process was combined with the food, wine and celebrations of the Winter Veil Festival, which was enough to make everyone who came to the ceremony enjoyable.

Yang Yi got up early this morning, but there were many people who got up earlier than him.

There were already many people watching the excitement in the arena of Deadwater Village. In order to maintain the order of the arena, Slark sent a whole battalion of 100 fighting murlocs to guard the arena.

The arena of the town level 1 is actually the lowest level arena. There is a circular open space in the middle of the arena, surrounded by three-tiered terraced stands without seats.

The 100 fighting murlocs entered the arena and first occupied the lowest level of stands. The remaining stands can accommodate less than 300 spectators.

The protagonist of today's arena is not the murlocs from Ratchet Town, but the goblin Gurgothok and his gladiators.

Gurgothok, the goblin, came to the village after seeing the notice posted in Deadwater Village. This flattering goblin claimed that he had worked in the arena in Gadgetzan before, but was kicked out for some reason.

When the goblin was driven out of Gadgetzan, he brought a few gladiators who earned bonuses in the Gadgetzan arena. When he learned that there was an arena in Deadwater Village, he immediately ran to the murloc with shining eyes to talk business.

Arena fighting is very popular among many races in the world of Azeroth. In many gatherings and celebrations, the arena is often the most popular place. Therefore, the shrewd goblins have long seen the commercial benefits of it, and some goblins specialize in the arena business.

It is said that the competitions held in some famous arenas are often a local event. The betting money for each competition is of an astonishing scale, which makes the organizers earn a lot of money.

The most famous one is the Diremaul Arena organized by the Ogres. It is the holy land that all gladiators yearn for. Winning the crown in the Diremaul Arena can not only gain huge wealth, but also make the world famous.

It is said that the goblin Gurgothok also wants to take his gladiators to Diremaul to try their luck, but the strength of his gladiators is still far from standing in the Diremaul Arena.

Yang Yi has seen that the goblin Gurgothok brought a troll servant and seven gladiators.

The seven gladiators are level 3 boars, kobolds and gnolls, level 4 centaurs and terror totem tauren, level 5 undead, and a level 6 ogre.

The big level 6 ogre is wearing a black heavy armor, like a copper wall and iron wall, and the big iron rod in his hand is as thick as a pillar. It is the trump card of the goblin Gurgothok.

After waking up, Yang Yi ate breakfast while being surrounded by murlocs and came to the arena.

Yang Yi just hoped that the arena could attract more spectators, and did not want to make much money from it for the time being, so he only collected a little venue fee and security fee from the goblins and let the goblins arrange it themselves.

The goblin Gurgothok deliberately put on a golden coat and big red gloves today, looking very charming.

This goblin is indeed a professional who has worked in the Gadgetzan Arena. The arena was packed on the first day of its opening.

It is said that for this reason, the goblin and his troll servants had been distributing flyers about the arena everywhere a few days ago.

The rules of the arena are relatively simple. Those who want to challenge can go to Gurgothok's troll servant Woody, pay the registration fee, and then go down to duel with the goblin gladiators.

Every victory has a generous reward, and the winner who finally defeats all the gladiators will receive a level 4 excellent quality weapon as a prize.

Level 4 weapons of excellent quality are very tempting to many people. They have successfully attracted a large number of spectators to buy tickets to enter the venue. The tickets alone have made the goblins a lot of money.

For the generous bonuses and attractive prizes, many adventurers who are eager to try have paid the registration fee and are eager to challenge.

Adventurers have been in this world for a long time. Everyone knows that there is no such thing as fighting monsters or doing tasks to earn experience to upgrade in this world. In addition to physical fitness, one's own strength depends on combat skills.

When adventurers first entered this world, most of them had never practiced real fighting. A few people only practiced some sports and competitive fighting. Only a few people, like Ouyang and Chen Nanfeng, practiced martial arts since childhood.

So Ouyang and Chen Nanfeng quickly distanced themselves from others in terms of level.

In order to improve their levels, many adventurers began to work hard to improve their combat skills. Those who have the conditions will ask masters or coaches to teach them, and those who don’t have the conditions will practice hard by themselves or find someone to learn from.

Therefore, during this period, the levels of adventurers generally began to rise, and more and more people successfully advanced to level 1 fighters. Some people even posted promotion strategies on the forum for reference.

However, there are still a few adventurers who can raise their combat level to level 3, that is, the mid-level.

Yang Yi watched for a while and found that the adventurers who chose the next battle were quickly knocked to the ground regardless of whether they chose a level 3 wild boar, a dog-headed man, or a wolf man.

It seems that the strength of adventurers still needs to be improved. After all, martial arts training cannot produce results in a year or two. Moreover, if you miss the golden period of martial arts training in childhood, it is too late to start practicing when you grow up.

Yang Yi stayed in the arena for a while, but he didn't see any adventurers win a game. He became less and less interested and left.

At noon, it was time for the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Dead Water Village.

The ribbon-cutting was actually quite boring, especially when Yang Yi found that the adventurers and natives watching were all looking at Bain, the tauren who was invited to cut the ribbon together.

Fortunately, the murlocs in Ratchet Town tried hard to cheer for Yang Yi, so that Yang Yi did not have a dull moment. He successfully completed the process.

Next was the auction that everyone was looking forward to.

Yang Yi was actually waiting for this auction, because he had already taken a fancy to several items on the auction list.

So Yang Yi also participated in the auction.

The auction was hosted by the goblin auctioneer Drezmitt, who was specially invited by Yang Yi. This goblin auctioneer often worked in the auction house in Orgrimmar and was an old hand.

Yang Yi was worried that the fishman's head could not control the scene of the auction house, and he had no experience in this area, so he spent a lot of money to invite the goblin auctioneer.

After the auction started, Yang Yi found that many familiar people came.

Many big figures from big guilds and big forces appeared one after another, including Xie Fei, the president of the Glory Guild.

Yang Yi sat in the front row. As the landlord, he simply greeted them and ignored them.

As soon as the time came, the auction started immediately.

Various auction items were placed on the big table in front of the auction table, attracting everyone's attention.

Although the adventurers are not yet high in level and strength, there are many people with great powers among them.

In the past two years, adventurers have been running around and drilling around in the world of Azeroth, and they have found many good things. It's just that there was no opportunity like the Deadwater Village Auction before, so many things were stuck in my hands, and this time I just took them out.

Goblin Drezmit is worthy of being the auctioneer who presided over the Orgrimmar Auction. He has seen big scenes and is very comfortable presiding over this small auction house.

As several items were sold in his hands, the atmosphere at the auction gradually became heated.

During the period, Yang Yi also raised his hand to bid for several items. Fortunately, he was rich, and the things he bid for were not valued by others.

So Yang Yi successfully bid for several things he had set his eyes on at the beginning.

He first won three leatherworking patterns for a total of 9 gold coins.

They are [Pattern: Murloc Scale Breastplate], [Pattern: Murloc Scale Belt] and [Pattern: Murloc Scale Wristguard]. The leather armor made by the three leatherworking patterns are all excellent quality equipment.

As the names of the patterns show, the main material needed to make these three types of leather armor is murloc scales!

The source of the murloc scales is of course the murlocs. Just like skinners skin wild beasts, to make these three types of leather armor, you need to peel off the scales from the murloc's body.

Yang Yi took pictures of these three patterns. In addition to avoiding some large guilds from hunting murlocs to skin them for equipment after obtaining the patterns, more importantly, he felt that only the murlocs had the best chance of getting the most murloc scales.

"The thinking of the murlocs is different from that of humans. The murlocs in Ratchet Town should not reject equipment made from murloc scales peeled from the bodies of their own kind." Yang Yi thought after taking pictures of the three patterns.

The second item Yang Yi took pictures of was a cooking recipe.

[Recipe: Delicious Wind Snake], the food on this recipe can be made by a level 2 chef.

The reason why Yang Yi took pictures of this recipe was purely out of curiosity.

Because the recipe records that the material required to make this food called [Delicious Wind Snake] is [Mutated Fish].

[Mutated Fish] can be caught in the lake of the Dead Water Oasis. Yang Yi has never figured out what this ugly fish is used for.

With this recipe, he can try it out in the future.

[Recipe: Delicious Wind Snake] Since no one knew the effect, no one competed with Yang Yi for it. In the end, he bought it with 1 gold coin, which was the minimum starting price set for this auction.

After bidding for [Recipe: Delicious Wind Snake], there was no item that Yang Yi was particularly interested in. After a long time, it was finally the last item of this auction.

"The two broken swords of the epic level 6 two-handed sword [Destiny]..." The goblin auctioneer Drezmit shouted excitedly.

Including Xie Fei from the Glory Guild, people from several large guilds came for the two broken swords of [Destiny].

Although [Destiny] was broken into two pieces in the battle between the mysterious human Big Chin and the Beast King Rexxar, that earth-shattering battle also advertised the two-handed sword [Destiny].

Xie Fei and other people from several large guilds were saving their money and waiting for the appearance of the Broken Sword of Destiny, but Yang Yi had no interest in it.
