Chapter 562 Baghead Battle Leader

Chapter 562 Baghead Battle Leader

One thousand assimilation points?

A mere thousand assimilation points is really too low.

Of course, this price is fair and reasonable for an unknown and strange object that has no understanding of its functions. Moreover, even if the player really understands the function of the Infernal Network map, if the player is not interested in the Warhammer 40K universe at all, then this thing will be of little use to him.

"The Infernal Network Map...what is that?"

Monroe turned to look at Moira and asked.

"I have no idea."

Moira shook her head and said.

Although Monroe didn't know what the "Infinite Network Map" was, when he heard the words "from the Warhammer 40K universe", he immediately turned his head and looked in the direction of Fu Qinghai.

As a result, I saw that the guy seemed to be still flirting with the bespectacled and long-haired beauty next to him. He didn't pay attention to what was being auctioned on the stage, and looked completely indifferent.

Is he acting after all...

Or do you really not care at all?

"The guy didn't make an offer."

Monroe lowered his voice and said:

"It seems like it's not a treasure."

"One thousand assimilation points, does anyone want to bid?"

The host looked around the entire venue.

If no one bids, the item will be declared unsold. In the past, those auction items almost consumed the assimilation points of the reincarnations. Now everyone is generally cash-strapped, and not many people are willing to spend a thousand assimilation points to buy a wordless book with unknown functions.

After waiting for a long time, someone finally held up the sign.

"Okay, one thousand assimilation points."

The host said happily.

Monroe held up the sign tentatively.

"Fifteen hundred assimilation points!"

The host immediately updated the quote.

Fu Qinghai raised his sign a second later.

"Two thousand assimilation points!"

Monroe Melville: "..."

If I don’t lift it, you won’t lift it.

If I make a move, you will follow?

…

At this time, outside the Continental Hotel.

Reincarnators have already begun to walk out of the auction venue and the hotel lobby one after another. They have either spent all their assimilation points or bought their favorite items. They looked alert and walked in a hurry, leaving here quickly without lingering.

Some people may ask: Why not stay and take a look at the auction items at the back?

Because these players are worried that other jealous players will kill and steal goods if they are carrying treasures - after all, the Order Alliance can theoretically only control the interior of the Continental Hotel, and they will not interfere in any other matters beyond this gate.

When someone goes out, someone comes in.

As vacancies began to appear in the auction venue, the Order Alliance also relaxed the entry threshold, allowing some non-VIP ordinary players to enter the auction venue to participate in the bidding. The Order Alliance was also worried that subsequent items would not be auctioned after the players left.

A tall, thin man with curly hair and freckles walked into the auction venue after verifying his identity as an ordinary member. He found an empty seat and sat down, just as the host on the stage began to repeat the price:

"Two thousand assimilation points count once."

"Two thousand assimilation points count twice."

Monroe Melville was very troubled at the moment.

If you don't raise your sign, this Infinite Network map from the Warhammer 40K universe will be taken away by Qingshan. But he was not sure whether the other party really wanted this thing, or he was just arguing with him routinely. Even the appraisal team of the Order Alliance could not see the use of the item, so he was not sure that it would be useful in his own hands. Although two thousand assimilation points are not much, he has been done this by Qingshan several times before. A perfect human would have to spend an additional three to five thousand points to buy the target item each time, so he is inevitably a little hesitant now.

Until a sign was raised in the distance.

Free him from his tangles.

"Oh, two thousand five hundred assimilation points!"

The host pointed over there in surprise and said.

Monroe turned to look.

A young freckled young man held up a sign.

He didn't recognize this strange player. Monroe immediately turned to look at Fu Qinghai and found that the other player was also looking at him - and he had no intention of raising his card.

really! This guy doesn't want any Infernal Network map at all. He just saw me raising the sign so he followed me. Bastard, I won't be fooled by you again!

Munro thought he had the answer.

So he didn't raise his sign.

The two just stared at each other from afar.

Until the host hammered and announced:

"Two thousand five hundred assimilation points three times...deal!"

"Congratulations Mr. Benzim."

The freckled young man went backstage to start the capital verification and handover.

Fu Qinghai sat calmly and motionless in his seat.

Monroe turned away and didn't look again.

Suddenly, a familiar feeling appeared in his heart.

"Benzim, Benzim...why does this last name sound familiar? Have I heard of this person?"

Monroe Melville thought for a moment and gave up without recalling it, and stopped paying attention.

Monroe had never met Ron.

In fact, another of his men had met Ron, the virus king Lev Alessandro, who once led a team to the Marvel (Earth-36) universe to establish a perfect human advancement base. At that time, they captured Ron and imprisoned him in order to strip the symbiote from his body. So Monroe felt a little familiar with this last name - but that was all. As the club boss, he would not deliberately remember the name of an ordinary prisoner.

Ron Benzim.

…

The auction is over.

The three of them, Fu Qinghai, were almost empty-handed. Instead of leaving the Continental Hotel directly, they followed a Order Alliance staff member into the passage behind the auction venue.

The passage is very long and gradually deepens downwards, but it still maintains the consistent "John Wick" decoration style of the Order Alliance, with wallpaper, carpets, lamps, hanging paintings and decorations.

Finally they came to a secret room.

Fu Qinghai's old acquaintance, Paredes.

Have been waiting here for a long time.

"Qingshan, long time no see."

Paredes stood up and shook hands.

"Long time no see, friend."

Fu Qinghai shook his hand and got straight to the point:

"So what's going on?"

Paredes did not explain directly.

Instead, he looked at the two sisters next to Fu Qinghai.

"It doesn't matter."

Fu Qinghai waved his hand and said they were all on his own.

Chen Xinxue crossed her arms and narrowed her eyes.

This guy actually questioned my relationship with Qingshan?

"You really want that helmet, right?"

Paredes asked.

"certainly."

Fu Qinghai nodded.

"Actually, we have another piece of equipment here. Its effect is similar to that of that helmet. No, it's even stronger. It can not only resist mind control and psychic snooping, but can even resist the mental influence from high-dimensional existence - you are from Warhammer 40K Universe, you know what I’m talking about.”

Paredes said seriously.

Psychic influences from higher dimensional beings…

Of course Fu Qinghai knew what it was.

The corruption of the Chaos Evil God in the Warhammer 40K universe, the whispers of the Ancient God of the Void in the World of Warcraft universe, and the most classic and hardcore, the spiritual pollution in the Cthulhu universe... can all be collectively referred to as "spiritual influences from higher-dimensional beings" ".

It can resist the mental influence from high-dimensional existence. This is awesome. What equipment can have such a powerful effect? The approach in the Warhammer 40K universe is usually to fight superstition with superstition, that is, to resist the corruption of the Four Gods through faith in the Emperor.

Fu Qinghai raised his eyebrows and asked:

"Then why don't you put it up for auction?"

"Because this equipment has a major flaw. It has a negative effect. Well, strictly speaking, it's not that serious. The key is whether you can accept it."

Paredes pointed to the coffee table and chairs:

"You three, please take a seat first. I'll ask them to bring some black tea and snacks. Let's sit down and chat slowly."

All four people sat down.

"Have you seen the movie "Watchmen"? "Watchmen" also belongs to the DC multiverse, but it has no intersection with the DC extended universe for the time being."

Paredes asked, looking at the three of them.

"Of course, I loved the movie."

Fu Qinghai nodded immediately to show that he had seen it.

"Then you are no stranger to this equipment."

Paredes said, pulling out a box.

When he opened the lid of the box, there was a piece of linen cloth inside.

The dazzling treasure vision they imagined did not appear. The three of them got closer to the box and took a closer look. They found that it was just a bag of ordinary white linen woven fabric.

Paredes then took out the bag from the box and shook it towards the three people to unfold the front pattern, with a symmetrical abstract pattern in the middle that was dyed with some kind of black ink.

This pattern has a psychological term:

Rorschach inkblot test.

"Rorschach mask!?"

Fu Qinghai suddenly exclaimed.

"That's right, the Rorschach mask."

Paredes nodded and said.

"How come the Rorschach mask is in your hands... No, in my impression, the Rorschach mask is just made of a new type of technological fabric invented by Dr. Manhattan. It is not a magic device, and it does not have any resistance from high altitudes. The special function of maintaining the spiritual influence of existence.”

Fu Qinghai expressed his doubts.

"It was an accident."

Paredes smiled mysteriously and explained:

"Do you remember the ending of Watchmen, Aoyama? Rorschach was unwilling to compromise and begged Doctor Manhattan to kill him. Doctor Manhattan annihilated him in the ice and snow...only this mask remained."

"There is really nothing special about this mask. There is a viscous fluid in this double-layer fabric, which is sensitive to heat and pressure. It will automatically change color according to the wearer's body temperature. As a new type of clothing material, that's it."

"But later, some reincarnations picked up this mask, and they discovered that this piece of cloth was actually contaminated with some strange memetic properties. As long as you wear this mask, your mental will will become extremely tough and strong, so strong that it can be called stubborn and you can be immune. Any mental contamination and mind control.”

Paredes then changed the subject:

"However, once you put on this mask, it will also change your personality drastically. It will not make you become a different person, but it will amplify the paranoid elements in your personality, making you very stubborn and never willing to compromise, and return……"

Paredes paused here.

"So what?"

Fu Qinghai asked.

"Also believes in the so-called 'absolute justice'."

Paredes said slightly embarrassed.

"Absolute justice?"

Chen Xinxue couldn't help but repeat.

"I also know that this word sounds a bit mean, but this is the best way to describe this strange psychological effect. I don't know how to describe this kind of psychology except 'absolute justice'. Anyway, according to our tests, anyone who wears it can If you wear this mask, you will become jealous of evil, and even paranoid to the point of destroying your relatives and enemies without distinction, which is very extreme."

Paredes spread his hands and said helplessly.

Fu Qinghai and the other three looked at each other in confusion.

Wondering what kind of strange effect this is?

"So, are you interested in this mask?"

Paredes looked at Fu Qinghai and asked.

Fu Qinghai pondered for a moment and said:

"To be honest, I actually like the superhero Rorschach. Even if this mask has no special functions and is just for collection value, I will buy it. Now it has this special attribute... I want to know Wei What is the price positioning of the Sequence Alliance?"

"You are very honest, Qingshan."

Paredes smiled and said:

"From the first time I met you, I noticed this trait in you. At that time, I realized that this man would definitely achieve a great career in the future. I thought you would list a bunch of shortcomings to bargain with me... ...Since you are so honest, I will not compromise, ten thousand assimilation points, this is the price we offer."

Paredes delivers a series of rainbow farts.

"Belisarius Aoyama: The Great Cause".

Chen Xinlu rolled his eyes when he heard this.

Frank? He should be magnanimous.

Chen Xinlu commented in her heart:

A scumbag must be magnanimous, and a scumbag must be confident and confident.

"make a deal!"

Fu Qinghai agreed without much thought.

The two quickly reached a deal. After receiving the 10,000 assimilation points, Paredes pushed the box over and Fu Qinghai put it directly into the white suitcase without inspecting it.

"In fact, for you, the value of the Rorschach mask is far more than that of Magneto's helmet. You are a space warrior. If you wear Magneto's helmet, you can no longer wear your own helmet, but the Rorschach mask is just a Thin cloth bag, put the mask on and you can still wear the helmet.”

Paredes added thoughtfully.

It is true that many people have not noticed this detail.

Chen Xinxue watched the whole process with cold eyes.

There is a saying that "Those who are in authority are confused and those who are on the lookout understand clearly."

Chen Xinxue has already figured out that the core reason why the Rorschach mask was not put up for bidding at the auction was not that the Rorschach mask had any side effects. Paredes, or the Order Alliance, reserved this equipment specifically to please Qingshan. They are betting that Qingshan will become a big boss in the future - no, Qingshan is already a big boss now. The Order Alliance may have received some information that caused them to pay more attention to Qingshan.

Chen Xinxue understands the style of the Order Alliance better than Fu Qinghai. They are not an impartial platform. On the contrary, they are more like the famous agencies in Hollywood. It is their usual style to place bets separately and wait for others to serve. For example, Chen Xinxue purchased Olivia's set of magic power-increasing jewelry from the World of Warcraft universe. After receiving the set of jewelry, the Order Alliance did not hold a public auction, but contacted Chen Xinxue privately and asked her to come directly to buy it. .

Although you still need to spend money to purchase, this purchase power itself represents a screening threshold.

This is just like the membership qualification review that is most popular in the luxury goods industry. Some people want to buy it but they can't.

…

After Paredes walked out of the customer reception room, he went alone to a more private room deep underground in the hotel. The decoration in this room was in complete contrast with the decoration outside. The tables and chairs were extremely simple and plain.

"Did you give him that equipment?"

asked an old man behind the table.

"Here you go, my lord."

Paredes nodded respectfully and said.

Then he became a little confused:

"Sir, I don't understand. Although such a powerful piece of equipment has some side effects, it shouldn't be sold for only 10,000 assimilation points. Isn't it a bit too cheap for him?"

Paredes said in an exaggerated tone:

"In my opinion, the Rorschach mask is so effective that it can even rival the two major immortal masks in the world of reincarnation."

Paredes' so-called "two major immortal masks in the world of reincarnation" are the rankings summarized by players themselves. They are: Michael Myers' latex mask in "Moonlight" and Jason Wool's mask in "Friday the 13th" Hess's baseball masks, these masks also have various negative effects, but they all have one characteristic in common: they enable the wearer to be infinitely resurrected.

"Your news is too late, Paredes."

The old man shook his head and said.

"Please tell me, sir."

Paredes lowered his head and said.

"Did you know that in the Marvel (Earth-36) universe, the Chitauri's home planet has disappeared from the star map, and the Collector is recruiting the last Chitauri from across the universe?"

the old man asked.

"Well, I've heard a little bit about it."

Paredes was stunned for a moment and said.

"Did you know that in the Pacific Rim universe, major plot events ended within three days? There are no villains in the entire reincarnation world, and the players are all at a loss."

The old man asked next.

"This, I don't know."

Paredes admitted honestly.

"He blew up two planets."

The old man said in an understatement:

"Homeworld of the Chitauri and Precursors."

"He put two planets...what!?"

Paredes was shocked.

"Based on my investigation, that's it."

The old man affirmed.

"OMG……"

Paredes put his head in his hands.

I tried hard to recall whether there was anything improper about my attitude just now... The Order Alliance couldn't afford to offend a fierce man who could blow up a planet at every turn.
