Chapter 1252: Shockwaves in the Hub
Live streams can be rewound, allowing viewers to go back and watch previous segments by dragging the progress bar. When people received the news, they flooded into the live stream, rewinding to see what Su Yu had said. Their shock was beyond measure!
They immediately began discussing in the public chat:
"By the Hymn! A Planetary Rank 4 Dark Thunder Dragon corpse!"
"Almost complete! How much do you think this would sell for?"
"When was the last time an item of this caliber appeared in an auction?"
"Hasn't it been over a thousand years? The last particularly rare treasure I recall was the 'Gristle Stele'?"
"You're right, the 'Gristle Stele.' It appeared about 1,300 years ago. Only a divine artifact of this caliber can compare!"
"Su Yu must be incredibly lucky! How could a Cosmic Rank powerhouse just give something like this away?"
"Unbelievable luck!"
The public chat was practically exploding with comments, which kept pouring in faster and faster. By the end, the comments were refreshing so quickly that it was hard to read them, with dozens or even hundreds of new messages appearing every second.
Everyone was in a state of extreme shock, and many were even speaking incoherently.
...
The Feg Hub is located in the Orion Arm of the Milky Way. The Orion Arm is a shorter arm and is situated in the middle of the six major arms. Due to its unique geographical position, the Feg Hub rarely experiences wars. Although there are several rebel bases in the galaxy, they are generally far away.
Because of the lack of conflict, the civilian auction market in the Feg Hub rarely sees items of particularly high value. The Feg Guard Army, which was often deployed to other hubs, had acquired some valuable items, but these were usually allocated by the Hymn.
Thus, when Su Yu's auction announcement was made public, it caused a massive shock in the hub! The news spread like a virus, exponentially reaching every corner of the public network.
Almost the entire network knew that something big was happening with Su Yu!
And the live stream was still ongoing.
People who received the news immediately flooded into the live stream, causing the number of online viewers to skyrocket from millions to over ten million in a matter of seconds! Thankfully, the public network was robust enough to handle the surge.
If the server had been weaker, the live stream would have been unusable by now.
Faced with this unimaginable situation, the host's speech became increasingly disjointed:
"O-Okay... we... we... what were we doing again? Oh, right, let's hear the next team's acceptance speech! The next winning team is... is... cough, let's start the broadcast now!"
He was as shocked as everyone else by Su Yu's announcement.
It was as if he had been hit by a speeding spacecraft, leaving his mind blank and unable to form coherent thoughts.
Seeing the number of online viewers, he broke out in a cold sweat. Good heavens, it was already over ten million!
As an unknown host, when had he ever experienced such a massive audience?
...
Meanwhile, news of what was happening with Su Yu quickly reached the ears of major factions and top-tier powerhouses.
Luman Greed, the Chief Supervisor of the Guard Army, was among the first to receive the news. In his shock, he crushed the bracelet in his hand into powder.
He quickly instructed his secretary, Bella, to get him a new one.
Even after the new bracelet was activated and the user interface generated, he still couldn't believe his ears.
A Planetary Rank 4 Dark Thunder Dragon corpse! Su Yu actually had this?
He quickly dialed a number.
When the call connected, Luman immediately asked, "Baro, is everything you said true? Su Yu really has a Planetary Rank 4 dragon corpse? Could he be lying?"
"No, Sir Greed," the intelligence officer Baro replied firmly. "I just confirmed with the Rock Clan's elite, Rattodiz, who verified the information and mentioned that the online auction is already being prepared."
"Rattodiz, you say?" Luman Greed was taken aback.
Three days ago, he had introduced Su Yu to Rattodiz.
He knew Rattodiz well, a loyal stone man to the Guard Army.
If he said it, then it was almost certain.
"Good grief! Su Yu actually has this thing?!" Luman muttered to himself, his eyes wide with disbelief.
This was completely beyond his expectations.
And he wasn't the only one; who could have predicted this?
...
He was in a daze for a long time.
It wasn't until Baro gently inquired if he should end the call that Luman asked, "Baro, does the Commander know about this?"
"Of course," Baro replied. "Commander Boris was already informed."
Boris was Baro's direct superior and the head of intelligence for the Guard Army.
"Alright, what did the Commander say?" Luman asked.
Baro replied, "The Commander instructed us to notify all officials of ministerial rank and above. A temporary meeting will be held in about... 8 minutes. Please be ready."
"Understood."
After ending the call, Luman used the new bracelet to browse various platforms and websites on the public network.
Sure enough, news of Su Yu's auction was everywhere, with netizens discussing it heatedly.
Luman felt the discussion was even more intense than the last time a bounty was announced.
The last bounty had already sparked nationwide discussions, but this time, the number of posts was even greater.
Secretary Bella was also at a loss.
She looked at Luman nervously, "Sir Greed, what should we do?"
Luman turned off the bracelet.
Composing himself, he replied, "What else can we do? Wait for the Commander's meeting."
Since this had already caught the Commander's attention, it was up to the Commander to make the decision.
But this Su Yu...
Why does Su Yu always cause such a commotion in the hub?
This is the third time, isn't it?
