Chapter 952: Chapter 594: Failed Refining Hammer, Mi Yue_2

"All of you are old friends of Refining Star Mountain, so you naturally know that the tools used by Refiner are not better when they have more functions. Each skill should be mastered rather than being versatile and mediocre, but Mi Yue firmly believes that there must be someone who needs this Refining Hammer."

"Now, let’s start the auction. Refining Hammer, starting bid one Star Stone."

After Hong Fu Mountain finished the introduction, he realized that no one in the entire auction hall was bidding, there was dead silence.

No wonder, everyone came to Refining Star Mountain here to buy finished Star Devices. Who would want to buy a hammer?

Mi Yue, standing behind the display stand, sweated in his heart upon seeing this scene. He clenched his fists and stared at the dark booth area and the room area above.

He so hoped someone would bid for this Refining Hammer.

Yet, after waiting for a long time, there was no response. The Martial Artists in the booth area and the VIP area seemed to have collectively disappeared; no one spoke or bid.

Damn it.

He should have listened to his Master, not put this Refining Hammer up for auction.

But previously, Mi Yue seemed to be blinded like a pig, even telling his Master that if this Refining Hammer was not auctioned, he would not sell his other finished products anymore.

In the end, his Master reluctantly agreed and communicated with Hong Fu Mountain of Refining Star Pavilion, placing this failed Refining Hammer for auction towards the end of the first half.

However, in this world, really, no one can understand him.

Mi Yue is doomed to be alone.

"Is there a bid?"

Hong Fu Mountain surveyed the room and asked.

No one responded.

Hong Fu Mountain laughed, "Since everyone is not interested in this auction item, we can take a break now; the first half of the auction ends here..."

"Ten thousand Star Stones!"

Just as Hong Fu Mountain was announcing the end of the first half of the auction, a voice rang out.

Everyone, including Hong Fu Mountain, was stunned.

Who is it, bidding for such a useless thing?

Mi Yue looked incredulously at the direction of the auction hall’s room area; just now, that voice came from there.

Unexpectedly, someone truly values his work and creativity.

"No way, Lu Lin, are you crazy?"

"What can’t you do with ten thousand Star Stones, why buy this worthless thing?"

Wang Chou couldn’t understand Lu Lin’s actions.

"It’s fine."

Lu Lin smiled faintly and straightened his body, "Although I don’t have much money, I can still afford ten thousand Star Stones."

On the stage, Hong Fu Mountain paused for a moment, then quickly reacted, "Room No. 1’s guest bids ten thousand Star Stones; is there a higher bid?"

"Ten thousand Star Stones once."

"Ten thousand Star Stones twice."

"Ten thousand Star Stones thrice."

"Congratulations to the guest in Room No. 1 for winning the Refining Hammer."

"Fellow companions, the first half of the Refining Star Treasure Appreciation Conference has ended. Everyone can rest and communicate freely; after one hour, we will begin the second half of the auction."

With Hong Fu Mountain’s words, many Martial Artists from the booth area stood up and left, returning to the hall from before to converse again.

"Lu Lin, can you now tell me why you bought such a thing, are you not a Refiner."

"It’s nothing."

"Just suddenly felt something."

Upon seeing this multifunctional Refining Hammer, Lu Lin immediately thought of the weapon ordered by Elder Long.

He wants a weapon that can be long or short, thick or thin, big or small, soft or hard, with a versatile design. This Refining Hammer is also Mi Yue’s attempt at many functions for a Refining Hammer.

Though it’s failed, looks poorly made, this item might inspire Master Cui Baohe.

Of course, even if it doesn’t inspire Master Cui Baohe, it’s fine. Lu Lin spent ten thousand Star Stones, and then sent it to the Federation, where Star Device Masters might study it, possibly gaining insights into advanced refining techniques and ideas, greatly enhancing the overall level of the Federation’s star tool industry.

In conclusion, no matter what function this Refining Hammer might serve, buying it at the price of ten thousand Star Stones is definitely worth it for Lu Lin.

"Alright, do as you please, anyway you won’t run short on money."

"With just ten thousand Star Stones, what couldn’t you do? Buying something like this which you won’t use, really don’t understand what you’re thinking."

To Wang Chou, Lu Lin couldn’t say much, just shook his head, taking out the strangely shaped armor he got earlier and started playing with it.

This armor is infused with a Refiner’s whimsical ideas; while defending against attacks, it also aims for a counter kill.

The armor not only has sharp, tough spikes, but there’s also a mechanism made at the Heart-protecting Mirror position on its chest... wait, could this whimsical armor also be made by Mi Yue?

Lu Lin scanned the armor with his Spiritual Strength, and indeed, found a very small "Mi" character on the shoe insole of the armor boots, it must be Mi Yue.

While fiddling with the armor, the room’s main gate was knocked; Wang Chou mentioned that Lu Lin’s auctioned hammer had arrived, so he let them in.

After paying ten thousand Star Stones, Lu Lin received this strange Refining Hammer, but he wasn’t particularly interested and directly stored it into the Storage Ring.

An hour passed quickly; as many martial arts masters returned to the auction hall, Hong Fu Mountain’s cheerful big face appeared before everyone again.

"Thank you all for patiently waiting; now we proceed to the second half of our Refining Star Treasure Appreciation Conference, with only eighteen treasures all guaranteed to be premium; please look forward."

"The first auction item, the Blood Wheel Sword crafted by the new star of tool refining, Mi Yue."

Hong Fu Mountain displayed the Blood Wheel Sword; at the sword handle’s position, a circular guard replaced the traditional sword handle, featuring a whimsical design.

"This Blood Wheel Sword is a Ninth Grade Star Tool, unusable by non-Star Emperors. Its sharpness can easily cut through the heavy armor of three A-level World Monster, and in attacks, it has effects on Spirit and Soul, but these effects need to be actively triggered."

"As for the most unique aspect of this auction item, it boldly innovates by using the Blood Wheel as a guard, but its function is inconvenient to explain here, only its buyer can know its effect."

"Now, the Ninth Grade Star Tool Blood Wheel Sword starts bidding, with a starting bid of five million Star Stones."

Following his introduction, everyone showed significant interest in the Blood Wheel Sword.

Being able to cut open the armor of three A-level World Monster, this feat isn’t just about sharpness but also requires hardness, toughness, and when the sword blade enters the large body of the World Monster, it can automatically adjust the attack mode according to different tissues.

Conservative estimates suggest that the wave-like push pattern on this sword alone might take a Refining Master over three years to complete the production.

"Thirty million."

"Thirty-five million."

"Forty million."

Quickly, this Blood Wheel Sword was auctioned for sixty-seven million.

"The second auction item is this, Radiant Gold Water-splitting Spike; it’s an unusual weapon and can greatly increase Gold Attribute Martial Artists’ attack strength and speed."

"Similarly, this Radiant Gold Water-splitting Spike is also a Ninth Grade Star Tool, crafted by our Mi Yue."

Hong Fu Mountain’s words made the participants below restless.

Here comes another item designed and crafted by Mi Yue.

This entire second half of the auction seems to be this Mi Yue’s personal showcase, doesn’t it?

"The third auction item, Ninth Grade Star Tool, Shadowless Cloak, can instantly enter invisibility in any environment, while blocking strong person’s Soul Power Perception. This Shadowless Cloak is also at Ninth Level Star Tool-level, and crafted by Mi Yue."

...

"The fourth auction item, Doppelganger Puppet, when used can transform into an Avatar completely identical to its user, within a hundred kilometers it can be controlled by Soul Power, beyond this distance it can execute commands according to certain instructions but lacks capability for thinking and random adaptation."

"This is a special Ninth Grade Star Tool, also crafted by our Master Mi Yue."

...

Item after item was presented, but the participants below already had nothing more to say.

It turned out right, this Mi Yue is a remarkably strong Refining Master, frequently producing Ninth Grade Star Tools. His skills could make him an Elder at Refining Star Mountain, yet he’s merely a new star disciple.

This is just too powerful.
