While those interested in the armour were prepared and waiting for Alec to declare the starting bid, the others, who had no intention of bidding couldn’t help letting their imaginations run wild.
As they felt If the opening item was already of mid-tier caliber, what else could possibly be in store?, Many silently prayed that something matching their desires would appear next so they could make use of the corpses they had brought in their space rings.
As murmurs of speculation filled the hall, Alec stood calmly, a knowing smile on his face as he observed their expressions.
This was all part of his plan, starting strong with a high-tier item to set the tone, even if the next few items didn’t match the first in quality, the excitement would remain.
As the crowd had already been made to believe that treasures awaited them, and that momentum alone would keep their spirits high, as the eagerly awaited what’s next.
