Due to early registration issues, Li Yao and his group were led into a small side hall as soon as they entered the auction hall. Since there were multiple auction events, the main venue couldn't accommodate everyone, which necessitated several batches.
The Red Fortress was part of the third batch of auctions. The interior was extremely dark, and under the guidance of a Troll girl, they arrived at a small private box that could seat only four people. They couldn't see who else was participating in the auction.
"Wow, it's amazing that the game has such clever NPCs and played this beautifully," Dongdong hummed as he sat in the middle and picked up a large grape to eat. "A small room is one thing, but it's designed so that we can't see who else is participating in the auction, preventing any back out. Plus, we can't bring our own food and can only purchase here, which is really a rip-off."
