Chapter 1023 - 673: Mechanical Bixiao?
"Next up for auction is a card from the Mechanical Clan, the Blazing Fusion Body, which is the core of Mechanical Clan card making."
"As an S-class Red Quality Material Card, the starting price for this card is four hundred top-grade Star Spirit Stones, with each bid increase no less than thirty Star Spirit Stones."
Upon seeing this card's introduction, Jiang Yuan had a strange thought.
Could Bi Xiao, as a battle core, use this card for creation?
Using this card could give Bi Xiao an enhancement skill.
Like Nezha's [Three Heads and Eight Arms] or [Lotus Embodiment]?
Although it's a Mechanical Clan card, it's generally assumed to be a material card for making mechas.
But it doesn't necessarily have to be used just for making mechas.
The characteristics of this card could totally serve as enhancement skills for Card Spirits.
With this thought, Jiang Yuan made a bid.
A Mechanical Clan member has just raised the bid, but after Jiang Yuan's increase, the price had reached four hundred and sixty.
Seeing Jiang Yuan's bid, the members of the Mechanical Clan were taken aback.
Typically, it's obvious that such a card belongs exclusively to the Mechanical Clan, and other races usually wouldn't compete with them.
But when it comes to the Human Clan, it's different.
The Human Clan loves to embrace the characteristics of other races to fortify their own capabilities.
The question is, did the Human Clan bring a Card Maker capable of making Mecha Cards this time?
After a moment's silence, the Mechanical Clan bidder raised again.
The upper limit for this card is roughly six hundred top-grade Star Spirit Stones.
If the price exceeds this, it would be wiser to look for alternate cards.
After the other party raised, Jiang Yuan increased the bid again.
The card wasn't particularly expensive, perfectly feasible to purchase for an experiment.
"Are you sure you want this card?"
"Of course."
Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, while Zhan Youqing was visibly excited, her eyes almost sparkling.
"Is it for making those two sets of Ultimate Armor for me?"
"Obviously not."
Without hesitation, Jiang Yuan immediately stated it wasn't for that, simultaneously raising the bid again.
Now the price had reached five hundred and fifty.
"Damn!"
In a flash, the sparkles in Zhan Youqing's eyes vanished as she decided to raise the bid again.
The price soared to five hundred and eighty, causing hesitation among the Mechanical Clan, who were about to increase their bid.
In the end, the Mechanical Clan opted not to raise.
Because this time, it was another person from the Human Clan bidding, and they weren't sure if it was a tactic to trap them.
If they raised once more, the card price would be six hundred and one.
Though not much over the mark, given alternatives, paying more because others did is indeed frustrating for them.
Mechanical Clan chose to abandon, understanding Zhan Youqing's strategy, Jiang Yuan didn't press further.
After three strikes, the card belonged to Zhan Youqing.
"This card wasn't meant for Ultimate Armor; what are you going to make?"
After acquiring the card, Zhan Youqing continued questioning Jiang Yuan.
"If it's for your Ultimate Armor, I'd definitely opt for Golden Quality cards."
"This card is meant for an experiment to see if it's feasible."
Once Jiang Yuan explained, Zhan Youqing realized, her eyes sparkling again.
"Then, if successful, could you sell me that Mecha Card?"
"What Mecha Card?"
Jiang Yuan looked perplexed at Zhan Youqing: "When did I say I was making a Mecha Card?"
"Huh?"
"But if not for a Mecha Card, then for what?"
"A weapon?"
"But we wouldn't use thermal weapons from this card very much, right?"
"Anyway, it's for experimentation; whether it turns out or not remains to be seen."
Jiang Yuan continued watching the auction stage, not forgetting to chat with Zhan Youqing.
"I'm thinking of trying to create a Summoning Card with this card."
"Summoning Card?"
Zhan Youqing appeared puzzled: "Using a Mechanical Clan card for a Summoning Card?"
"You plan to make a Mechanical Card Spirit?"
"Of course not."
Jiang Yuan felt slightly helpless: "How can I explain it to you?"
"Forget it, you'll see when I've made it."
"If it doesn't turn out, then so be it."
"After all, it's just an experiment."
Jiang Yuan indeed felt a bit helpless.
What in the world is a Mechanical Card Spirit?
Mechanical Bi Xiao?
What a joke!
If a Mechanical Bi Xiao were truly made, even the calm Yunxiao would lose composure.
Imagining Yunxiao's calm yet imposing gaze, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
Better not.
Not to mention, Mechanical Bi Xiao is certainly impossible.
Moreover, it's only a notion, whether it can even be realized is another matter.
The auction proceeded, but other than these two cards, Jiang Yuan had no interest in the others.
After all, he had already reviewed the auction list.
It's worth mentioning that the creation of Summoning Cards, or cards in the mythological series, requires highly specific Material Cards.
Many cards just aren't fitting.
It's better to wait for the [Star Core Fragment].
However, Jiang Yuan was somewhat surprised that this Ten Thousand Races Auction wasn't as lively as auctions depicted in novels he'd read beforehand.
No incidents of threats, murder, and treasure theft over disagreements.
