Chapter 218 Super Auction Every Five Years
Are you kidding? How could a dignified lord help them make wedding clothes?
Wouldn't it be nice to go somewhere to play by yourself, and he just happened to have something to do, so the second uncle passed the old patriarch a message to him and asked him to go somewhere when he had time, but he happened to be too lazy to take care of these nosy things.
First go to the place mentioned by the old patriarch, and then go to the reconnaissance fleet of the Zhiburuwan United Civilization to test your strength, or go deep into the border, or even go to the border of the Buruwan United Civilization. If there is If you have the opportunity, you can wander into the territory of the Bruwan United and catch the autumn wind. Anyway, no one can catch up with him.
After thinking about this, Li Qing said nothing and said hello to Li Jingtun again. The huge fleet parked in the starry sky began to activate. With a dazzling halo sweeping across, the huge fleet disappeared in a flash.
As soon as he left, Yu Di, the commander of the Raging Thunder Corps, and Yi Shuilong, the deputy commander of the Raging Thunder Corps on the other side, breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not that they are stingy, it's mainly that the four flagships put too much pressure on them. Outside the northern border of the empire, the law of the jungle is vividly displayed. Only the strong have status here, let alone facing a crisis at this time. , everyone relies more on the strong.
Such a powerful fleet is placed here. Later, many players will be united to form a joint fleet. If Li Qing wants to compete for command, they really can't compete.
The players here all vote with their feet. Four flagships are placed here. You can get the golden talent of the Servant of Light. You don’t need to show the talent of yourself and the Star Negator. They don’t care whether you are an outsider or not. As long as you shine. Li Qing was willing to take the lead, and many people supported him.
The distance of this jump is not very far, only about 500 light-years, and it is not a jump without a target, but a jump with a purpose. The target is about 2,000 light-years away to the northwest of the Raging Thunder Legion, and has already passed the human race. Further north, the center line of the border between the two civilizations of the Brunan United Civilization is quite close to the southern border of the Burwan United Civilization. It is only more than 2,000 light years away from the central core fortress of the southern border of the Bruwan United Civilization. There is a very famous Neutral galaxy.
That neutral galaxy is called Omnic 003. It is said to be a neutral galaxy established by thirty-three large pirate groups and a powerful intelligent robot named 003.
And it is recognized by the United Empire of Humanity and the Bruwan Alliance as an absolutely neutral galaxy, and the joint sweeps every ten years will not affect it there.
The so-called neutral galaxy does not mean that you are neutral if you declare neutrality, but it must be recognized by all nearby major forces to be considered neutral.
There is a huge urban planet in this galaxy called Omnic 003, ruled by a powerful intelligent robot called 003.
According to the words of the old patriarch who was the second uncle, this neutral galaxy is the location of the largest black market in the entire empire, and even the entire Angels Spiral Arm. It ranges from the United Empire of Humanity to the United Bruwans, and even occasionally from other distant star fields. civilization will come here to trade.
This neutral fortress is also the place where thirty-three large pirate groups within the border sell their dirty goods. Basically, everything can be found here.
Including battleship mother chips, even flagship mother chips, even a complete set of mobile fortress blueprints and more outrageous things can be found here.
Generally speaking, this is a very high-end international market, especially the super auction held every five years, which attracts countless big names, including the military masters of the United Empire of Mankind, the military masters of the Bruwan United and even Lords, even some interstellar super consortiums, or civilizations from the Hercules Spiral Arm or the Galactic Center gathered here. It was a rare event in the Hercules Spiral Arm.
It is said that in every super auction, there will be some players from other player civilizations who hide their identities and mix into it.
Coincidentally, this year is the year of the super auction that occurs every five years, and there are still about four months until the super auction.
In a super-standard super auction like this, you can have everything. There is a high probability that there will be a battleship mother chip that Li Qing needs, and even a dreadnought mother chip, as long as there are enough supplies.
Yes, for a super auction like this that crosses races, civilizations, and even spiral arms, the transaction currency of course cannot be human star yuan, but a universal currency in the river system.
Generally speaking, there are two trading methods.
One is to use civilization points, which are recognized as the universal currency in the river system. Even the ancient advanced civilizations in the galactic center also recognize this transaction currency.
The second type is mineral resources, including refined steel, various rare resources, such as rare crystals, rare gases, etc., or ultra-rare resources, such as star diamonds, active metals, etc.
Alloys are not good, because the alloy formulas of different civilizations are different, and you have to resmelt them when you buy them. On the contrary, the most basic refined steel is the universal currency among the stars.
Li Qing didn't have much refined steel on hand, and he had to convert some of the steel he had saved into alloys. He had to spend time in the past two months to collect a batch.
It’s not a big problem. Now that he has nothing else, he is not short of minerals.
As an ultimate ore guy who doesn't need any cost, it's not just about how much he wants. His current problem is not whether he has the ore, but how much he needs to convert to use it.
The items that appear at this kind of super auction can easily cost hundreds of billions to trillions, or even trillions. Especially some good things that are beyond ordinary people's imagination and even military leaders will be jealous of. The price is probably very high. It's several trillion or more. If you don't have enough capital, you can only watch others buy it, which will be very frustrating.
As for the third method of transaction, that is bartering, there is no need to consider this.
With four months to go until the auction, there's still plenty of time.
After two jumps, Li Qing found an unmanned galaxy to stop, then found an asteroid belt to stop, opened the universe in his palm and started collecting meteorites.
This place is too far away from the human territory, no players come and go, but no one saw this shocking scene.
The efficiency of collecting meteorites is not as high as collecting planets, but it saves money. After all, the ultimate weapon requires more than 10 trillion energy blocks to fire one shot.
Anyway, there are still four months until the super auction, so there is plenty of time.
The attraction contained in the current Black Hole Gate is already very powerful. It may not be possible to forcefully collect the warships, but the meteorites floating in the starry sky can no longer resist its suction. They do not need the assistance of industrial ships. At the beginning, the Black Hole Gate swept forward all the way. Can.
In just one month, the total volume of meteorites stored has been close to that of the previous wasteland planet.
He was busy for about three months, collecting meteorites that were more than the size of three wasteland planets, and then smelting them while collecting them. In the end, he collected up to two quadrillion cubic meters of refined steel, with a total value of about 78 trillion.
"This is such a happy trouble!"
Li Qing was speechless. So much refined steel thrown into the market would definitely have a certain impact on the normal price of refined steel.
It is completely impossible to affect the entire human market. After all, the entire market is so large. The combined mining of all players in the entire civilization every day is much more than him. The main reason is that so much refined steel is thrown directly onto the market without any precautions. It will definitely cause price fluctuations within a certain range, thus triggering a series of chain reactions.
"My heart is full of fish but my strength is not enough. This is what I mean."
Li Qing rubbed his chin and ordered the battleship to return to the fleet and prepare to go to the 003 neutral planet.
There is only one month left, so hurry up and prepare. If you are late, you may not be able to find a spot.
First, all the warships were collected into the palm of the universe. After a short preparation, one escort ship entered the jump and disappeared.
Two hours later, the escort ship appeared in the 003 neutral galaxy border galaxy, and then followed the instructions throughout the galaxy to the wormhole in front of the hyperspace channel on the other side of the galaxy. It saw a star castle at the entrance of the wormhole with two small The fleet is inspecting the queue to enter the wormhole.
One of these two small fleets has an obvious human style, and the other has an alien style that has never been seen before. They are not warships of the Bruwan United Civilization, and I don’t know which civilization they are.
The inspection was quick, and it was his turn in less than ten minutes. A communication came in, revealing a silver-white robot, saying to him in a mechanical electronic voice:
"Welcome to 003 Mechanical City. According to the supreme 003 instructions, you need to register before entering the 003 galaxy."
Li Qing nodded:
"This is nature, how to register it?"
After finishing speaking, a form was passed over and the robot said:
"Please fill in according to the above prompts."
Li Qing looked at the form and breathed a sigh of relief. It was not very complicated, just simply fill in the name and race, as well as the number of the spacecraft entering the 003 galaxy and the basic information of the crew inside.
Li Qing thought for a moment and filled in the information about himself, the Cybertronian general, and the crew on the escort ship.
Of course, Cybertron God General was the original name, and now he has a new name he usually uses after becoming a Star Negator, which is Li Bo.
After filling in the information, they were given a number and then allowed to enter the wormhole.
After coming out of the wormhole on the opposite side of the galaxy half an hour later, I saw a row of ten super star cities hanging in the void near the wormhole, and two communications came in.
One is the official welcome communication from Galaxy 003. After reminding him of a series of precautions, he leaves an assistant communication. If he encounters any problems in the galaxy, he can communicate and inquire through this assistant.
Another communication that was beyond his expectation came from the embassy of the United Empire of Humanity in the 003 galaxy. After contacting him, in addition to transmitting a copy of the same precautions and some general information that was not secret, it also helped him temporarily open the player channel within the galaxy. .
At this time, there were not many people talking in the internal channel of the galaxy, and most of them were anonymous, or some people with obvious code names were talking.
Li Qing thought for a while and gave himself a codename - Siyuan.
Then he browsed the top message built into the channel, which contained information on how to sign up for the super auction and the prerequisites for participating in the auction.
The top information shows that the prerequisites for participating in the auction are very simple. You need to pay a deposit of materials or civilization points worth one hundred billion star yuan, which is also a screening threshold. If you don’t even have this capital, don’t participate in this super auction. Got it.
But it is impossible for a normal person to specially transport such a large amount of goods to be auctioned. At this time, there is a compromise method, which is to go to the management committee of the super auction for capital verification.
There are representatives of the United Empire of Humanity, the Bruwan Alliance, the Angels Spiral Arm and even some major forces in the Galactic Center. All individuals or forces who want to participate in the auction need to verify their identities under the witness of multiple parties to ensure that they have sufficient capital. Auction items inside.
The super auction is not held in the ten super star cities near the wormhole. It is only used to receive outsiders who come to trade during non-super auction periods. The super auction will be held on the 003 Mechanical City Planet.
After obtaining the passage permission, the escort ship sailed straight into the galaxy.
After Super Star City, there are piles of parked warships and spaceships everywhere, most of which are various transport ships, including some extremely rare giant transport ships, which are larger than the Titan Super Flag and can accommodate massive amounts of cargo.
In this neutral galaxy, any civilization can rent a place to do business here as long as it abides by local rules, or even builds residential stations near Star City.
But only near the star gate, ordinary merchants are not allowed to enter the depths of the galaxy, especially near the 003 Mechanical City Planet, merchants with low reputation are not allowed to approach.
About one million kilometers beyond these ten super star gates, a star city group of three super star cities appeared, with a large number of battleships and spacecraft lined up nearby.
Li Qing followed the instructions and the escort ships lined up behind the team.
After more than half an hour, the team took his turn, and the escort ship teleported directly to the center of the galaxy through the star gate of the central star city.
As soon as he came out of the star gate, Li Qing saw a huge planet hanging in the sky in front of him.
This is a very huge planet. The diameter is probably over 100,000 kilometers when viewed from a distance. It has already caught up with some gas giant planets, and it is difficult for normal planets to be this big.
This is a mechanical planet made entirely of metal, with an atmosphere on the surface. In addition, there is a transparent energy shield tens of thousands of kilometers away from the planet's surface to intercept fine meteorites and garbage captured by the gravity of the mechanical planet.
Through the transparent energy shield, you can see that the surface of the planet is full of metal skyscrapers, which look unusually prosperous. Countless interstellar aircraft drag long flames of light back and forth between the high-rise buildings on the planet.
In an orbit millions of kilometers beyond the planet, there are five mobile battle stars with a diameter of nearly 10,000 kilometers, more than 30 war moons with a diameter of more than 3,000 kilometers, and hundreds of super star cities suspended.
And these mobile battle stars and war moons are surrounded by large-scale fleets.
"Dear guests, welcome to Super Mechanical City Planet No. 003!"
The crisp electronic prompt brought Li Qing back to reality from the shock. He couldn't help but clicked his tongue and sighed:
"What a terrifying force!"
Sure enough, people have the capital to be neutral. If they don't have enough strength, they can't be neutral even if they want to be neutral.
Although Li Qing has never seen the strength of the Star Sea Lord, based on what he has seen and heard now, the comprehensive strength of this so-called 003 Mechanical City Galaxy definitely exceeds the average Star Sea Lord.
Next, Li Qing very honestly parked the escort ship at the Star City berth, and then followed the instructions to take a small aircraft into Star City. The management committee of the super auction is in this Super Star City. (End of chapter)
