Number One Player of Time and Space

Chapter 1,226 The Curse of Cthulhu

"This mechanical exoskeleton is a test machine jointly built by many of the world's top technology companies to bid for orders from the US military. It perfectly integrates devil cells and machinery. It is driven by highly concentrated Orgon ore energy and can be charged once. It can maintain full power operation for 24 hours, protect the operator in any harsh environment, and can even serve as a deep diving suit and space suit, and also has certain mobility capabilities on the seabed and in space.”

"If I have to talk about a shortcoming, it is that the cost of this mechanical exoskeleton is too high. Even if it uses all mature technologies, the cost of a single unit still reaches an astonishing 40 million yuan - if it is just for To deal with demons, this price is enough to hire several A-level civilian military companies.”

"Of course, I believe that all guests should be very aware of the value of this mechanical exoskeleton. As long as you take a photo, you will immediately have a personal bodyguard who can fight against A-level demons, and your safety will be greatly improved."

"Okay, let's start the bidding now. The starting price of this [Abyss·A] is 40 million yuan, with a minimum increase of 1 million yuan each time... Okay, someone bids 45 million! 46 million!"

Compared with the previous auction items that only had collectible value, the wealthy people in the venue were obviously much more interested in this anti-magic mechanical exoskeleton.

After all, the richer people are, the more they fear death. Being able to spend tens of millions to buy out a bodyguard with A-level strength is definitely a good deal for these people.

Looking at the heated bidding at the auction, Luo Jie suddenly noticed something strange.

There is something wrong with this price.

The previous transaction price of the B-gold quality [Love and Flower Bow] was only 12 million. How could the price of the [Abyss A], which is also suspected to be B-gold, be so high?

unless……

Luo Jie recalled the auctioneer's introduction before, combined with the current weather and environment, and suddenly figured out the key.

"60 million!"

Luo Jie's sudden raising of the sign caused a brief silence in the originally intense bidding in the hall.

Jumping directly from 46 million to 60 million, even a fool can see that Luo Jie is bound to win this [Abyss·A].

"This gentleman offered 60 million! Is there any price higher than this? Is there any?"

The auctioneer stood on the stage and made crazy hints with inspiring words, but the bidders in the audience retreated one after another.

It’s not that they can’t afford a higher price, it’s just that there’s no need.

Technology products are not antiques, and there is no uniqueness. It doesn't matter if you buy an early version for a price increase of less than 10 million, but there is no need for more.

Once you get off the ship, you can buy a more customized version for the same price, just by waiting a few more months.

"Is there anything higher? 60 million for the first time! Second time! Third time - deal done!"

The auctioneer made the final decision, and Luo Jie stood up and left the hall amidst polite applause from everyone.

He had a premonition that a biohazard in the mission of the Unlucky Ten might happen at any time, and he had to put the three things he had just photographed into his bag for safety.

All the way back to the VIP supreme member room where he was, [Eros·Flower Bow], [Saya Eye] and [Abyss·A] were already placed in the most conspicuous position in the living room.

Luo Jie reached out and brushed the cold shell of the mechanical exoskeleton, and a line of attributes automatically jumped out of the visual projection.

【Abyss·A】

Type: exoskeleton armor

Introduction: An anti-demon individual armor test machine built based on the active cells of the remains of unknown creatures in the deep sea and supplemented by modern technology. Using high-concentration Orgon ore as energy source, it can be active for 24 hours at full power.

This is it.

Luo Jie had noticed something wrong with the auction price of [Abyss No. A] before, and now it seems that his previous guess was indeed correct.

This exoskeleton armor is the shortcut to clearing this mission.

Whether it is him or the unlucky ten-man group, whoever can get this [Abyss·A] will be equivalent to getting the official plug-in for the current cruise mission, and the difficulty of the mission will plummet.

Of course, this is a normal mortal prefix, and for Luo Jie, who is stuck with the sacrifice price bug, the only role of this [Abyss·A] is to act as a backup when he is forced to abandon the ship or accidentally falls into the water. Take off your wetsuit.

After putting the three pieces of equipment into the storage space, Luo Jie felt more at ease, locked the door and returned to the auction hall.

At this time, auction item No. 30 was being displayed on the stage.

In the red velvet box, there is a ring. The surface of the ring has the shape of an amber vertical child, which looks like the eyeball of some kind of cold-blooded animal.

Huh? This ring seems a bit familiar...

If he hadn't seen Yukino Mito's portrait before, Luo Jie might not have been able to remember the origin of this ring - it was obviously the cursed ring that hypnotized Yukino Mito in the original comic!

"This ring has the ability to hypnotize demons, but the user needs to bear a certain curse. The starting price is 5 million yuan, with a minimum increase of 1 million yuan each time..."

Just when Luo Jie was about to raise his placard to participate in the auction, he suddenly felt something from his [supersensory intuition], and then he saw Maria, the saleswoman of Devil's House, standing beside the auctioneer at some point.

However, other than him, no one else in the room noticed Maria's presence.

What is she doing here?

Just when Luo Jie was confused, he saw Maria suddenly reaching out to grab the cursed thumb wheel on the display stand, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net, and holding it on her finger with lightning speed.

However, her actions also completely disabled her natural skills. The security guards at the venue immediately rushed up and pointed their guns at her.

"Put down what you are holding! Get down on the ground immediately!"

Facing the muzzles of more than a dozen black guns, there was no trace of panic on Maria's face. She stroked the gem-like ring face with a calm expression, and a disdainful sneer that she had never seen before appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"You used my boyfriend's fake medical records to trick me into boarding the ship, and then silenced him in the name of medical malpractice. Didn't you think that one day I would make you pay the same price?"

As he spoke, the amber vertical child of the cursed ring suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and the entire ring exploded into fine powder on the spot as if it was overloaded.

Maria's pretty girl's body began to expand and deform rapidly. Countless octopus-like tentacles poked out from under the thin skirt, rolled up the security guards who were shooting wildly, and twisted them into pools of mud.

"Great ancient god, I will sacrifice my life and turn it into an eternal curse, so that this dirty place flowing with blood and tears will sink in fear forever!"

Peng——!

The octopus monster that had expanded to its limit suddenly exploded into a shower of blood, and smelly mucus and tentacle fragments fell from the sky. Men's curses and women's screams echoed throughout the hall.

At the same time, a line of system prompts jumped out of Luo Jie's visual projection.
