e.Soon, the lone Demonic King arrived before Lu Kong.This is a one-horned devil with a hand axe.He growled, "Ant, I shall grant your wish and let you die by my hand!"He brandished his double axes, cl...Next day.

The entrance of Dawu City Auction House was bustling with people, extremely crowded.

Most of them are indigenous people, and a small portion are players.

The monthly auction in Dawu City isn't open to just anyone.

Even just to enter, you need to check in.

For players, those with over 100 gold in their possession are a minority now.

And this point of gold coins, the Great Martial City Auction House naturally wouldn't look down upon.

"To participate in the auction, the minimum threshold is five thousand gold. Clients below five thousand gold do not have the ability to bid at the auction and are therefore not our target clients."

This is the original statement that Taiwan's military has conveyed to its air and land forces.

Five thousand gold, equivalent to fifty million real currency!

This is just a threshold.

According to Sūitài's introduction, the auction will have many members from large families in Dàwǔchéng, and even from other big cities.

These people are willing to spend a fortune for valuable equipment, skill books, and skill stones.

And those who are eligible to join these ranks are also members of powerful families and influential factions.

For example, the heads of such organizations as Xuan Bird Army, Player Management Bureau, Tianyue Group, and other prominent families of the Daxia conglomerate.

The change brought about by the incursion of demonic energy was that these large families and powerful factions converted a significant amount of their wealth into gold coins and poured them into the game.

With the passage of time, in the not-so-distant future, fiat currency will inevitably be replaced by gold coins.

The reason it hasn't been replaced yet is completely because, at present, the number of people taking part in public testing only makes up a small percentage of the population.

If fiat currency were to be replaced, ordinary citizens would probably riot immediately.

Even if a player's strength is sufficient to suppress it, this is not something a normal country would do.

Of course, on the official forum, I've also seen instances in some small countries where, after being controlled by players, these players disregarded the lives of ordinary people, linking real-world transactions and gold coins, leading to a collapse of the currency system. Ultimately, ordinary people revolted, plunging the entire nation into chaos.

Even several of these small countries!

>And based on what has happened recently, the more chaotic a country is, the easier it is for demons to take advantage of the situation.

It is said that some countries have already shown signs of being unable to resist the invasion of demonic energy.

The entire country could fall!

And in this situation, Lu Kong heard from Xia Yan that major countries internationally were communicating and planning to send player teams for aid.

Although this is not a matter of our own country, and interfering in the internal affairs of other countries is also taboo.

But, the demonic invasion is no longer just an internal affair.

If a nation falls and becomes a devil's playground, then the entire Star System will be in danger!

The tooth decays when the lip withers.

According to Xia Yan, all that needs to be determined now is the action plan.

As for whether there will be action, that is undoubtedly the case.

Even if those small countries oppose it, the major powers will definitely send player teams to deal with it.

As for the domestic market, there is also a trend of linking gold coins and real-world transactions.

But these are limited to large families and areas with little impact on real life, and are still within controllable limits.

Now, such a phenomenon even occurs in reality.

If no one from large families and influential groups enters the game in reality, then that family or group would already be starting to panic.

And if someone joins the game, that person's status within the large family and powerful faction will rise straight away.

Needless to say, taking Xia Yan as an example, she was originally just a princess, but now the Xia Emperor is already preparing to pass the throne to her.

But listening to Xia Yan's meaning, she didn't even want to accept it!

In her view, after accepting the imperial throne, the pressure was too great, and she couldn't concentrate on playing games.

At that time, your own abilities will definitely be affected.

This gave Lu Kong a sense of déjà vu.

He thought about it, wasn't this the state of mind of someone who wanted to be the president of the Daxia Guild

It turns out Xia Yan also had this kind of thought.

Even the imperial family was like this, let alone ordinary people.

This time, among the players attending the auction, there might be some who were once overlooked in their families.

Lu Kuang stood in the auction house's high-rise VIP room, watching as players and indigenous people filed in one after another. His mind was racing with thoughts.

The officer stood beside the airship, his expression respectful.

As one of the auction house's managers, he should be busy with the arrangements for the auction.

But for him, land and air were more important, so he entrusted all these matters to his trusted subordinates.

Lu Kong opened his mouth and asked, "How much longer until the auction begins"

Su Tai glanced at the time and replied, "It will take another half an hour."

Lu Kong nodded slightly.

Yesterday, the auction list he received from Sutai was carefully reviewed by him.

All the auction items are legendary quality or higher, including some skill books and equipment.

Nearly half of these lots were handed over to Sutai by the land and air forces.

This made Lu Kong look a little odd when he saw the list.

However, what he pulled out was not just that. There was a legendary-grade warrior skill book and an epic scroll usable by both land and air units, so he came here.

Li Kong asked with some confusion, "Why didn't the masters of these skill books choose to trade privately with me"

Hearing this, Su Tai let out a wry smile and said: "It's like this, these two skill books were brought by another auctioneer supervisor, Andor. I had negotiated with him before, but he refused to trade."

Hearing this, Lu Kong raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Andron"

"That's the manager you met in the office area when you came to look for me a few days ago," said Su Tai.

The land and sky suddenly realized.

Then he remembered that Andor had invited him to go shopping earlier.

There seems to be a meaning of vying for the Taiwan market among languages.

According to the auctioneer, these lots are related to their performance.

This way, LuKong would understand.

That's just internal competition.

But for land and air, it doesn't really matter.

At most, it only takes a little time to participate in auctions.

Since he hasn't participated before, why not give it a try

Not long after, the door to the guest room was knocked on.

Xu Tai, with his sharp eyes, walked over and opened the door.

Outside the door were Xia Yan and her four companions, as well as Liu Qiang, Wang Bing, and several others.

They were brought here by the waiters.

Since they were participating in the auction, Lu Kong naturally let them come over. After all, the VIP room was spacious and there was no need to crowd outside.

Su Tai smiled at the several people and said, "Please come in."

Xia Yan and a few others nodded slightly and stepped inside.

Seeing the luxurious decor of the VIP room and the huge floor-to-ceiling windows facing the auction stage, even Liu Qiang and Xia Yan and the others widened their eyes slightly.

In reality, they have all experienced various lavish scenes.

But in the game, they still saw it for the first time.

Liu Qiang looked out the window at the many indigenous people and players below, feeling a moment of confusion.

In this throng of people, each individual is worth over five thousand gold coins. Outside, they would be considered big shots.

And yet these people are now crowding for space below, while they stand in the VIP section looking down on them.

Liu Qiang couldn't help but sigh, "This is the gap that comes with status."

Even commoners... even natives would have to show respect!

When Liu Qiang first saw Lu Kong in Novice Village, he felt that Lu Kong would surely be extraordinary in the future.

I didn't expect this, he already has such a status among the indigenous people!e Lu Kong. When they saw a beautiful middle-aged woman open the door, both of them were stunned.Du Xuefei saw the surprised expressions on the two people's faces and became even more certain that she...
