Chapter 49: (2): Season 1: Preparation


    Hyun-seok joked in a lowered voice so that no one could hear him.


    Can someone as important as the Union Leadere in person? Seems like you have some free time these days.Not only me, but Union Leaders will also directly participate. Unless they send representatives, we can identify which country they belong to and assess the financial capabilities and required items of each Union. It can be a significant help in understanding these top-tier auctions.It seems like theres some powerpetition between the Unions?I cant say for sure. Although there is no direct conflict since the monsters dont ovep, it doesnt hurt to know about each other. We dont know how the situation will change in the future. Besides, the US Union didnt try to scout you with 300 billion won just for their benefit. They must have considered that it would also harm the Korean Union.Hmm


    It seemed inevitable that when people gather and organizations form, there would be rivalries between the organizations. Each country had its own monsters and dungeons, so while there were no direct conflicts or disputes, it seemed like they were making efforts to monitor and restrain each other.


    To monitor Well, your friend reveals information about new monsters and dungeons quite easily.Thats a deliberate choice for image-making. We want to create an image of being the first to clear dungeons and provide information, and the premium image of ying monsters and sharing information. As you know, our ying level is exceptionally high, but the numbers are low. So, were building an image to ovee that weakness.


    Hyun-seok chuckled. He had already guessed Sung-hyungs thoughts to some extent, but hearing it directly from him made it more believable. Maybe it was because he had sensed some human charm in Sung-hyung from the beginning, but he felt satisfied with joining forces with someone like him.


    The auction began. The items on auction were diverse. While all the monster stones were monster stones, the ones with abnormal shapeslike hearts or starswere highly sought after by collectors and fetched a much higher price than regr stones. The world was vast, and there were many wealthy individuals with different desires participating.


    But here Its not just the yers, even the worlds wealthy are participating.


    Even though they were considered top-tier yers, it was difficult to categorize them all as wealthy. Unlike Hyun-seok, who could single-handedly y a monster, other yers worked in teams. They couldnt hunt at the ridiculously fast speed he did. It only looked easy when he did it. Dungeon clears were not an easy task either. Even if they managed to seed and earn 20 billion won by obtaining 100 Yellow Stones, with around 20 people entering a dungeon clear, the profit per person would only be around 1 billion won. And that was risking their lives. In reality, there were frequent deaths during dungeon clears. If someone thought risking their life for 1 billion won was a lot of money, it could also be argued that it wasnt such arge sum.


    And dungeons are notmon either.


    It was already emphasized, but Hyun-seoks ability to easily find and conquer dungeons was different. Dungeons were not of such low difficulty, nor were theymon. For ordinary yers, it was apletely different story from Hyun-seok. Being a yer didnt necessarily mean making a lot of money. Recently, the average ie had increased significantly, with yers earning an average of about 4 million won.


    In any case, being a yer was not an easy profession to be extremely wealthy in, but here, there were people who could spend money freely either because they had sponsors or because they were sponsors themselves.


    As the auction progressed, the prices kept rising. The Superior Healing skill book that Sung-hyung had previously acquired for around 1 billion won easily surpassed 3 billion won here. It seemed like nothingpared to the auction participants who confidently raised the prices, as if it was an insignificant amount. Frankly speaking, Hyun-seok was somewhat stunned.


    Hyun-seok himself possessed a considerable fortune that would not make anyone envioubining hundreds of Green Stones and Yellow Stones amounted to absurd wealth. However, the people gathered here seemed to consider such wealth as trivial.


    The Superior Healing skill was sold for over 5 billion won. Then what about Advanced Martial Arts


    Compared tobat skill books, support, and healing skill books were rtively cheaper. They were rtively easier to acquire. As a side note, amongbat skill books, passive skills were traded at higher prices than active skills. It was partly due to the perception that active skills fell under techniques while passive skills belonged to the foundation, and also becausebat yers with low M/P had limitations in using active skills. However, it didnt mean that active skills disyed tremendous utility either.


    In any case, while support and healing yer skills were rtively easier to acquire, the same couldnt be said for martial arts skills. There were undoubtedly people aiming for advanced martial arts like Hyun-seok.


    Darn it. I hope its not because theyre short on money or have something to deal with.


    He participated with a rxed mindset, but the world-ss ss was far more overwhelming than he had imagined. He had expected it, but experiencing it firsthand was on a different level from just thinking about it.


    Then, something shocking happened. The first casualties were the armed guards. Although there had been a murder, people didnt seem too disturbed.


    Since this ce was where world-ss yers, Union Leaders, and wealthy individuals gathered, the security was thorough with state-of-the-art facilities and systems. It seemed that some group had foolishly attempted something, and Hyun-seok observed the situation with a calm mind. A tremendous amount of money was being circted there, so there could be greed. However, targeting such a ce was something that only fools would do. Considering the enormous amount of money being traded and the extensive security measures in ce.


    Unless they were blind to therge sums of money involved, some people might have been well-prepared and confident enough to handle the situation all at once. It seemed like it might be thetter this time.


    Even among the rxed people, tension slowly started to rise. The situation was gradually escting.<ul><li>Reincarnation Paradise</li><li>A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War!</li><li>Super Card System</li><li>Infinite Clone System</li></ul>
