Chapter 545 I Want This... And This... And That!
Not only was the Superior Calming Liquid available for sale, but the seller was actually offering 3 vials at the same time! They could even be bought out for 450 Spirit Jades! According to the System, this was 45 Spirit Jades above market value, which hurt a little, but William didn't mind.
I heard that these are rarely sold, but here they are on my first visit. I shouldn't waste this chance! William memorized the information related to the Superior Calming Liquid and approached the front desk.
A woman with dark hair and white highlights greeted him with a smile, "Hello! What can we do for you?"
William pointed to the board, "Someone is selling three vials of Superior Calming Liquid. I'd like to buy them out, please."
The woman nodded, "One moment."
A holographic screen appeared in front of her that looked a catalogue identical to the board. The writing was blurry from William's angle, but he could see that there were significantly more items within the holographic compared to the sheets.
"Ah yes, here they are..." An image of the Superior Calming Liquid appeared in front of her, which she turned around so William could see it more clearly. "This is what you were looking for, right?"
"Yes, those three." William replied.
"Great! Are you interested in registering with the Auction House? Normally we charge a ten percent fee along with every buyout, but registered members are only charged five percent."
Ten percent? That would mean I have to pay 495 Spirit Jades if I don't register! William hadn't even bought the Calming Liquid yet, but he was already grieving.
"Is there any downside to registering?" William asked.
The woman responded quickly, as if this question had been asked a thousand times before, "As a registered member of the Auction House, the only downside is that you won't be listed as anonymous when you purchase an auctioned item.
Of course, this information won't be available to the public, though you can never be too careful. If you purchase a truly valuable item that others might desire to steal, the Auction House will offer appropriate security until you have reached a safe location."
William nodded and agreed to register following the woman's explanation. Judging from the price of several other items on the list, the Superior Calming Liquid was only average, so he doubted anyone would go to great lengths to target him for it.
The Tier 10 Stimulant Pill wasn't for Auction, but William had a feeling he could request one from the Alchemists elsewhere in the City. He moved on, finding almost every item by the end of a half-hour period.
William returned to the front desk with a list of the items he wanted to buy, trading in exactly 1100 Spirit Jades for over a dozen sets of materials. Most of the materials were slightly above market price and the taxes were crippling, but he was satisfied nonetheless.
Now all I need is the Stimulant Pill, a Bible blessed by the Great Saintess, a Vial of Superior Holy Water, a Lesser Orb of Destiny, and a Realmic Blueprint. After that, I'll need to go somewhere with dense Chaos Mana so I can upgrade the Unstable Elements Talent.
There wasn't a question of whether or not William had enough Points to upgrade all of the Resistance Talents. Each one only cost one million Potential Points to Ascend, and William had over 1.6 billion Potential Points at the moment.
If he wanted to, he could actually convert one billion Points into a single Ascended Point, though he didn't see a reason why he should.
The woman had William wait several hours before she could acquire all the items he requested, but he didn't mind. He sat in a private room allocated for the transaction, silently digesting the Primordial Soul Devourer Technique's information while he waited.
By the end of the working day, William experienced another wave of Ascended Points as the items were handed to him one by one.
