Chapter 78: Heading Towards Rank One
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The light door in the white mist was almost completely repaired after the ore was fully absorbed.
Taking advantage of the last bit of time, Lu Yuan left the suite and went to the auction house.
He planned to put some of his elite geno weapons up for auction.
Lu Yuan entered the side door of the auction house. Inside was a hall of about 200 square meters.
There were eight four-meter tall constructs standing on both sides of the hall, and there were a few rows of seats in the center.
At this moment, a few genetic warriors were seated and waiting.
There was another door on the other side of the hall, and a construct about two meters tall stood by the door.
Lu Yuan walked over, and the construct looked at Lu Yuan and said,”
“Human, do you want to auction an item?”
“Yes,” Lu Yuan nodded.
“Take this plate and wait in the hall.”
Lu Yuan took a light yellow metal card from the construct, with the number 021 engraved on it.
Lu Yuan sat in his seat and looked around.
Several genetic warriors sitting around him were also sizing Lu Yuan up.
Lu Yuan retracted his gaze and waited quietly.
Soon, a human walked out of the passage.
He handed a sign to the construct, and the construct said, “Number 045.”
A dog-headed man who was sitting in the hall stood up and entered the passage.
As time passed, one after another, genetic warriors came out and went in.
Not long after, a humanoid cat walked out and handed the metal plate to the construct.
“Number 021,” the construct said.
Lu Yuan stood up and walked towards the passage.
“Please enter room 021 and return the metal plate to me when you come out,” the construct said.
Lu Yuan nodded and walked into the passage.
On both sides of the passage were rooms.
The door of the room was closed, so she couldn’t hear anything inside. The number started from 001 and kept counting.
Lu Yuan walked in and soon came to a fork in the road. Fortunately, there was a sign on the side of the fork.
Lu Yuan walked towards the path from 020 to 050. After two steps, he saw a room with an open door.
It was number 021.
Lu Yuan walked in. It was a small room of about 10 square meters. There were no windows in the room and it was very enclosed.
There was a table in the middle of the room, and a construct was sitting behind the table.
Lu Yuan closed the door and the construct said, “Human, show me your metal plate.”
Lu Yuan handed the metal plate to him, and the construct nodded.”
“Take out the item you want to auction, human.”
Lu Yuan then took out the items for auction one by one.
In Lu Yuan’s original plan, he had a leader level staff to auction, but unfortunately, his plans could not keep up with the changes.
He had exchanged his staff for an ore.
Lu Yuan only had eight elite geno weapons and the horn and skin of the ancient sea crocodile leader.
Lu Yuan handed the items to the construct one by one.
The construct picked up an elite grade spear. Lu Yuan remembered that this was the cat girl’s meal money, which she had taken from a houndhead man.
“An elite-grade spear with a 75% refinement rate. The recommended starting price is 7000 crystals. Do you wish to change the starting price?”
“There’s no need to modify it,”
Lu Yuan shook his head.
The elite spear in the construct’s hand disappeared, and he picked up another giant black Shield.
” 77% tempered Elite Shield. Recommended starting price: 7500 crystals. Do you wish to change the starting price?”
“No.” Lu Yuan shook his head. “I won’t change it.”
After that, the construct looked through all the items for auction and gave the starting price. The starting price of the elite equipment ranged from 5000 to 10000. The starting price of the two leader-level materials was slightly higher. The horn’s starting price reached 12000 and the leather reached 13500. Every time the construct asked Lu Yuan if he wanted to change the starting price.
Lu Yuan naturally did not change it.
The process of auctioning was very fast, and it ended not long after.
After Lu Yuan put up all the items for auction, he left the small room.
After exiting the passage, Lu Yuan returned the metal card to the construct at the side of the passage, and the construct quickly called out number 021.
Lu Yuan, on the other hand, left the auction house under the gazes of several genetic warriors in the hall.
After leaving the auction house, the light door in Lu Yuan’s mind was almost repaired.
After a while, when the light door was completely repaired, Lu Yuan left the land of origin.
It was noon the next day when he returned to the real world.
Lu Yuan stretched lazily and revealed a smile.
After the items that were put up for auction were sold, Lu Yuan could earn about 100000 spiritual crystals. He had made a fortune.
He left the room and planned to go to the wild wolf material store to deal with the materials.
At this moment, Lu Yuan’s phone rang.
He opened his phone and saw that it was a call from the courier.
“Hello, how are you?”
“Hello, are you Mr. Lu?”
“Yes, I am.”
“Are you at home now?”
“I’m here,”
“Your parcel will be delivered immediately. We’ll deliver it to your door now and it’ll arrive in about an hour.”
Lu Yuan was stunned.
Express delivery?
Soon, he had a look of realization.
He only had the raw stones that he had traded yesterday.
It seemed that the ore stone had arrived?
How could he be so fast?
Lu Yuan was a little surprised.
“Okay, I’ll wait for you at home.”
Lu Yuan had to change his schedule and return to his room to wait for the delivery.
Just as he sat down at the desk, Lu Yuan suddenly remembered the message he had sent to Li Qinghe yesterday.
He took a look at his communicator, but Li Qinghe didn’t reply.
Lu Yuan frowned slightly.
Could he be busy?
Lu Yuan thought for a moment, then went to Li Qinghe’s room and knocked on the door.
There was still no movement.
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and did not break in.
Perhaps big sister Qinghe was still busy, so he decided to wait a little longer.
He returned to his room and began to browse the battle network aimlessly.
Suddenly, Lu Yuan remembered that he was about to break through to the first rank warrior.
At that time, he would be able to inscribe new transcendent genes. He would have to choose his future development path.
Currently, Lu Yuan only had one elite-grade water arrow gene.
To Lu Yuan, who had the evolution cube, the quality of the genes was not important.
It could evolve anyway.
What he needed was a transcendent gene’s characteristic, a characteristic that was suitable for him.
Based on Lu Yuan’s plan, it would be best if he could inscribe a transcendent gene that could increase speed.
At that time, his close combat ability would be polished to an all-rounded level, almost perfect.
If he could inscribe water arrows, he could build himself into a water arrow cannon platform with extremely strong defense. This direction was not bad.
However, there were many types of transcendent genes. Perhaps there was a more suitable one?
Since he had nothing to do, he might as well take a look at transcendent genes.
Lu Yuan opened the battle network and selected the transcendent gene classification. He then started to browse through it casually.
[Combat skill: Heavy Strike]
Normal-grade transcendent gene, 3.5 million.
Lu Yuan opened the introduction.
This was an explosive type offensive combat technique. By consuming spiritual energy, it could burst out with more power.
This effect was similar to Lu Yuan’s Black Steel Force. The only difference was that body technique consumed physical strength, and the strength depended on the physical strength.
Combat skills consumed spiritual energy, but they could also be combined with physical strength.
Obviously, the fourfold increase in Black Steel Force was much stronger than heavy strike.
Even the two transcendent genes that Lu Yuan had sold yesterday were better than this.
It actually cost 3.5 million.
This person must be crazy for money.
Lu Yuan shook his head and checked the other transcendent genes.
On the battle network, they were basically all ordinary transcendent genes.
After all, there was a chance of obtaining normal-grade transcendent genes as long as one killed an elite beast. The difficulty of obtaining them wasn’t too high so the supply would be high.
The vast majority of genetic warriors would also inscribe ordinary-grade genes as their first gene.
There were all sorts of transcendent genes.
There were more of the defence style Tortoiseshell Technique, Rough Tree Bark, Petrified Skin, Shield Defense, and so on and offence style Fury Strike, Power Strike, and Two-hit Combo.
There were also support-type skills like [Twining Wooden Beard],[Quagmire], and [Slow].
Lu Yuan’s gaze swept over them. He was not particularly satisfied with these transcendent genes.
Even if there were one or two excellent-grade transcendent genes, they were all very ordinary combat techniques. To Lu Yuan, they were dispensable.
At this moment, he paused in his browsing as he looked at a transcendent gene.
[Combat skill: Natural Recovery]
This was an ordinary-grade transcendent gene.
What surprised Lu Yuan was that this was actually a healing-type transcendent gene!
Lu Yuan suddenly thought of a problem.
His current defensive ability was already extremely powerful. If one wanted to kill him in an instant, they would have to be a lot stronger than him.
If he obtained a healing combat skill, did it mean that he could slowly recover as long as he was not killed in a short period of time? Then, he could turn the tables and torture his opponents?
To other genetic warriors, this model was not very realistic.
After all, the consumption of spiritual energy was a big problem.
However, to Lu Yuan, this was not a problem at all.
As long as he had spiritual crystals, his spiritual power would be limitless.
Super defense and healing ability, wasn’t this an immortal body?
If he could upgrade this healing combat technique and his current black iron body to the chieftain rank, he would most likely be able to fight those of higher ranks.
Moreover, compared to increasing speed, healing abilities had a wider range of applications.
After all, not all situations were suitable for high-speed combat.
The path of natural recovery seemed to be feasible!
