Chapter 872 Auction (Part 1)


Chapter 872 Auction (Part 1)

After waiting for about five minutes, the auction finally started.

Dietrian tapped the meditator a few times, and when the screen lit up, he began to introduce the auction rules.

Due to the special status of the Astartes Chapter and the non-standard economic policy of the Empire, the auction is still based on a barter model.

The list of exchange items corresponding to a certain auction item is listed by the Astral Knight, as well as the latest delivery time. It may be equipment, battleships, or other materials and personnel.

If the bids of both parties are consistent, then the priority will be arranged in the order of the bids, that is, there will be faster hands and slower hands.

But if no one bids for the first method of auction, then the second auction method will enter the "benchmark object" transaction link.

The so-called "benchmark" means that the Star Knights give a benchmark price to the corresponding universal material standard. For example, a set of brand-new Mark VII type power armor without any external equipment, its benchmark price is It’s 100, a new standard bolter, the base price is 10, a new set of standard Indomitable Terminators, the base price is 1,000, a brand new sword-class or dagger-class frigate, the base price is 15,000, etc.——

At that time, the auctioneer can make a free combination of bids based on the benchmark price of the auction item. For example, if the price of an auction item is 30,000, it can be two frigates or 30 sets of Indomitable Terminators.

As for the bidding rules, if it is the first auction mode, then the first priority is the delivery time, the second priority is the subsequent accumulated price, and the third priority is the special model of the same equipment.

In the second auction mode, the subsequent cumulative price is the first priority, delivery time is the second priority, and special models are the third priority.

".Now, the first auction item, multiple heterojunction bioenergy storage materials."

With the tapping of Dietrian's fingers, basic information about this auction item Sent to twenty-three boxes.

“We are not yet able to fully analyze this template, but based on the currently known data, we roughly know that this is a special material that can be used to make biobatteries. I remember that since the M33 period, the field of biobatteries has There has been no major breakthrough, which has also led to the long-term stagnation of the actual combat level of armed servitors, and is even worse than the M30 period. Perhaps this will be an important inspiration point."

After that, Dietrian listed. Required materials for the auction.

"Based on the value of this template, the Chapter has compiled the following list, including 10 brand-new Thunderhawks with full sets of weapons and equipment, 20 sets of Indomitable Terminators, and 50 sets of Mark VII power armor, including matching jetpacks. Within five years The delivery is complete, and there is also a fifty-year supply contract for parts and ammunition with a base price of 1,000. "

Ammunition and equipment parts can also be used as bids, but they are not reflected in specific quantities. And the model of supply contract.

Less than three seconds after Dietrian finished his words, a green light came on in a box.

"So rich, which forging world?"

Of course it is difficult for outsiders to know who is bidding, but Lovelace knows it very well, so when Loken asked, she thought It took a few seconds to find the answer.

"It's Agrippina. They are located near the Eye of Terror. They have been besieged many times in history. Their main defense force is the skitarii and servitors. Obviously, this kind of weapon has the opportunity to greatly increase the combat effectiveness of biological weapons. They will not let go of technology.”

While everyone was talking, another box just twenty meters away from the box where the Agrippina delegation was located also turned on the light.

“Three years of delivery!”

Dietrian raised his arm with three fingers on it.

Actually, he doesn’t have to do this, because all auction price data will appear on the meditators in each box from time to time, but he also seems to enjoy his role as host.

Then the light came on again in Agrippina's box.

“Delivery completed in two years!”

“Which world is bidding with Agrippina?”

“Griffin IV, it is said that they have been bidding for these years. They have completely controlled the eight surrounding star systems that are rich in mineral deposits, and deliver hundreds of billions of tons of raw materials to the factories of the foundry world every day. They are very rich, and their financial resources may not be inferior to Mars. This time they may want to smooth things over. ”

“Mars will not let them get their wish”

Obviously, as Lovelace said, Griffin IV's envoys were really menacing this time, and just as the lights of Agrippina's forge world went out, theirs lit up again.

“Delivered in one go!”

“How cruel.”

“I must be mad at Agrippina’s people.”
< br>About ten seconds later, when no lights came on again, Dietrian immediately said: "First time!"

“The second time!”

Suddenly, the lights in Agrippina’s Forge World box turned on again.

“One-time delivery, and the supply contract amount is increased to the base price of 2000!!”

This time Griffin 4 did not bid again. Obviously this template is for them. It's better to have it, but it doesn't matter if you don't have it.

In the end, Agrippina Forge World got their wish and captured the template they had high hopes for.

However, the templates will not be delivered on site. The envoys will receive part of the template data and will not receive all the templates until the delivery of the goods is completed.

"The second auction item is a two-seater civilian vehicle of unknown model. The template analysis progress is 70%. It contains a variety of ancient technologies, but its value needs further verification."

Phase Compared with the previous one, this is a complete set of STC technology templates, which can be produced immediately after analysis.

As for its value, as Dietrian said, it does require further verification.

But its emergence is already an astonishing achievement that has not been achieved by the Mechanicus for thousands of years.

“Based on the value of this template, the Chapter has compiled the following list. Three sword-class or same-tonnage frigates, brand new or with a service age of no more than one hundred years, and including a full set of crews and servitors, within ten years Delivered. "

For the first time, a strange box lit up, located ten meters to the right of Soshyan on the high platform.

"It's Mars!"

Lovelace whispered, with some kind of awe.

But soon, another box lit up.

“It’s still Griffin 4.”

“Delivery within eight years!”

Mars was not to be outdone and turned on its lights again.

“Delivery within seven years!”

At this time, another unfamiliar box also lit up.

“Which one is who?”

“It’s the forging world Lucius. They are the main arsenal of the empire, and the production level of the shipyard is also very high. They really don’t know how to use small things like frigates. Care too much. ”

The Forge World of Lucius is named after a unique alloy known for its durability, which is used in the armor and weapons of the Forge World’s armies. Forged from this alloy, the soldiers of Lucius' Forge World can easily withstand small arms fire.

At the same time, another reason that made the Forge world famous is that Lucius is actually a hollow planet. It was once part of a great experiment, and this experiment was enough to destroy the planet. A dozen times.

Ultimately, the result of the experiment is that the center of Lucius's once barren core is now an artificial sun, a massive fusion reactor that powers the forge that sprawls above.

Therefore, Lucius' unlimited energy supply makes it one of the vanguards of the empire's military production. Almost all the equipment of the Krieg Death Army comes from Lucius, which can forge and produce everything from guns to armor. Of all things vehicles, their Steel Walker gunners and Wild Ass Dune Crawlers are the most aggressive of all Skitarii combat units.

And its dockyard is also one of the important sources of supplementary battleships for the Imperial Navy.

"Delivery in five years!"

Lucius's move did not suppress Mars' desire to obtain the template, and the light in the box came on again shortly afterwards.

"Delivery in four years!"

Today's final double, everyone who has the votes, please support it!
