Chapter 87 Chapter86-The Guest Personally Received by Master Reo
Not only were ordinary players guessing about John\'s identity.
After entering the Dawn Breeze Auction House, several bigwigs from various powers who had already arrived also turned their eyes towards him.
Nearly all eyes were first drawn to John, who was leading the way.
"Who is this guy?"
"No idea, never seen him before."
"He seems to have a close relationship with the two guilds, Blue Sea and Genesis. Even the two people, Blue Sea and Adam, maintain quite a respectful attitude towards him."
"Could he be the leader of some hidden power?"
"You\'re kidding, what kind of hidden power could make the leaders of the top two global guilds behave so humbly?"
...
At this point, the spacious auction house was already packed to the rafters.
Some solo players and smaller powers with decent abilities could only take seats in various areas on the first floor.
The true heavyweights and powers with deep roots were all located in the private rooms on the second floor.
As John and the members of the two major guilds entered the auction house, nearly all eyes were drawn to them.
There was a buzz of conversation, whispers passing from ear to ear, with speculations about John\'s identity forming the crux of the conversations.
Facing such a spectacle, John didn\'t flinch.
With a blank expression, he strode forward.
What happened next was even more astonishing.
As John and the others entered the auction hall, they were greeted by none other than Master Reo of the Dawn Breeze Auction House, the most respected figure.
The crowd was dumbstruck.
Master Reo was the most renowned appraiser and evaluator in all of Silverglow. More importantly, he was an NPC, not a player.
When had an NPC ever taken the initiative to welcome a player with such deference?
"Greetings, Master. I didn\'t expect to disturb you to greet us personally," John greeted, putting his hand on his chest in surprise.
He hadn\'t expected this esteemed master to receive him personally.
Master Reo stroked his long beard, his smile warm.
"Young man, there\'s no need for formalities. You\'ve brought substantial profits to our Dawn Breeze Auction House. It\'s only right for me to greet you personally."
John then had a sudden realization.
The main reason for this esteemed Master Reo to greet him personally was probably because of the two legendary equip he had brought.
Indeed, Master Reo added, "The two items you brought were personally appraised by me. Their properties are truly extraordinary. Mr. Galewind, your willingness to put these two equipment up for auction is quite a bold move."
John gave a slight smile.
"You flatter me, Master. Although the attributes of those two items are quite good, they do not match my class. They are nothing more than a waste to me, it\'s better to sell them to players who truly suit them."
Master Reo\'s smile grew warmer.
"Indeed, Mr. Galewind. This kind of thinking is what we cultivators should have. If we stick to our old ways, it\'s quite detrimental to everyone\'s cultivation development."
As John and Master Reo chatted amicably, they moved towards the private rooms on the second floor.
"Where\'s Isabella?" John asked, seemingly nonchalantly, just before entering the room.
Master Reo chuckled.
"I have assigned Isabella to handle all the affairs of this auction. She should be busy at the moment, but she will personally attend to you once the auction ends."
John nodded.
He read between the lines of Master Reo\'s words.
It seemed Isabella\'s position at the auction house had been promoted.
That she was responsible for all the work of such a high-profile auction indicated that Isabella was close to becoming a member of the auction house\'s management.
For a lifestyle player, it was quite an achievement to advance to the management layer of a local power in the game within a few months.
"It looks like I will have to congratulate Miss Isabella when the meeting ends," John said teasingly.
Master Reo showed a happy smile.
He really valued Isabella and genuinely trained her as his successor.
"This girl Isabella was originally inexperienced and unqualified to handle such a high-profile auction."
"But this girl has been pretty lucky. First, she served these two ladies next to you and secured a Legendary Item, and then she got two more Legendary Equip from you. These two events have directly shocked our auction house\'s management." Master Reo explained the details without any hint of concealment.
John smiled and nodded.
Emma and White Feather at his side were genuinely happy for Isabella.
Under Master Reo\'s guidance, the group finally arrived at the entrance to the private room on the second floor, which had been prepared in advance.
Master Reo glanced at the group in front of him and chuckled, "It seems like you belong to different factions. Would you prefer to sit in the same room or separately?"
John didn\'t answer.
Instead, Blue Sea took the initiative, "Master, no need to worry. We had already booked our rooms before coming. You just need to arrange for Brother Galewind."
Blue Sea then turned to John, "Brother Galewind, we\'ll see each other after the auction."
John nodded in agreement.
Blue Sea and Adam, each leading their own guild members, headed towards their respective private rooms.
Master Reo personally escorted John and the two ladies into their room, reminding the attendants at the door to provide attentive service.
He then went back to prepare for his own work.
The spacious private room was lavishly decorated.
What came into John\'s view was a huge transparent glass wall replacing the front wall of the room, allowing the guests inside to directly view all the scenes of the auction hall.
The floor was covered with a thick carpet, unknown from which animal it had been taken. It was soft and comfortable underfoot.
In the center of the room was a long sofa, with a bar next to it, stocked with various drinks and snacks.
Overall, it met the standards of a high-end auction.
Emma, with White Feather in tow, excitedly rushed towards the bar.
This little girl was a classic foodie, unable to resist any kind of delicious food.
Even in the game world, she was always trying to satisfy her taste buds.
As she tasted various dishes, she would occasionally let out exclamations of delight.
Even White Feather was quite happy.
The last time they attended an auction, they didn\'t receive this kind of treatment.
It wasn\'t that the Dawn Breeze Auction House underestimated the two young ladies, but at that time, even though they had brought a Legendary Item, Isabella didn\'t have the authority and the two didn\'t particularly ask for such treatment.
This time was different.
John\'s status and power were enough for the Dawn Breeze Auction House to provide the highest standard of hospitality.
On the other side, John was lounging comfortably on the sofa, his eyes scanning the auction hall.
Among the sea of faces, he spotted several familiar ones.
Some were solo players he had met in other games.
Given his level of power, the solo players he knew were quite strong.
They were also doing quite well in this game, naturally qualifying for this auction.
Some others were old adversaries, including the grim-faced Darklord and the Wolf Guild, with whom he\'d had a conflict.
Their faces were dark and indiscernible, full of apprehension, a stark contrast to the curious and excited expressions of the people around them.
It\'s clear they saw John\'s entrance to the auction house.
How complex their inner thoughts must be at this time, probably only they would know.
"Why does Galewind get to be personally attended by Master Reo?"
Darklord was agitated and roared angrily at SoulSong, "With so many of your elites, you couldn\'t kill Galewind? And you nearly got wiped out. What on earth are you good for?"
SoulSong kept his expression neutral, calmly saying, "Galewind\'s strength far exceeds our imagination. For now, we can only lie low and look for another opportunity to strike a decisive blow."
Darklord was even more enraged, roaring, "Lie low? Are you saying I should avoid Galewind in the future? I refuse to believe he can take on my entire guild alone!"
SoulSong lowered his head, a flash of contempt in his eyes.
He was at a loss for words for Darklord.
If it weren\'t for his wealth, this kind of fool would have been hacked to death on the street long ago.
Taking a deep breath, SoulSong managed to suppress his inner discontent, speaking coldly, "If we want to act against John now, even if we bring out everyone from our guild, success is not guaranteed. And even if we succeed, our guild will pay a heavy price, the cost outweighing the benefit. Your goal is to make the Darklord guild a top-tier global guild. You can\'t risk the guild\'s growth over one person."
Darklord still couldn\'t calm down.
But he was clear that if his guild was to grow, it couldn\'t do without top players like SoulSong.
So, he forced down his anger and said coldly, "Time. I want an exact timeline from you. When can we get rid of Galewind?"
SoulSong remained silent for a while before replying, "We will need to wait at least until our guild is promoted to a level three guild, and we also need to get the Legendary Equip today."
Darklord took a deep breath, his eyes gradually becoming fiery, "Sounds reasonable. It seems I need to at least bid on one of those two Legendary Equip today!"
