Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

“The next item to be auctioned is this Electromagnetic Interference Domain artifact, starting at 1 million.”

Luo Ting’s voice echoed through the crowd.

After more than ten minutes of bidding, it was finally Lin You’s turn to bid on another treasure he had set his sights on.

According to the default rules.

Those who have already obtained spoils do not have priority bidding rights.

Only when all those who didn’t get any spoils fail to bid, will they have a chance.

Lin You was disappointed.

But he couldn’t break the rules.

Anyway, this artifact wasn’t all that important to him, just better than nothing.

As expected.

Just as his thoughts subsided, other lords immediately started bidding.

“2 million!”

“3 million!”

“4 million!”

…

With 18 treasures, 3 removed, the remaining 15 were not enough to satisfy everyone.

So the fewer items left, the more people bid, all wanting at least one treasure instead of leaving empty-handed.

In just a few breaths.

The price was called above 10 million, finally slowing down.

“13 million!”

Finally.

After another round of bidding.

The price settled at 13 million, won by an Elemental Type lord.

Lin You had noticed his species.

Elemental Type’s rare species, Dark Element.

Seems to have an extra bonus at night.

It seems he also considered night combat and chose to acquire this treasure.

A gentleman does not take what others desire.

Seeing the overjoyed expression on the other’s face as he received the treasure, Lin You abandoned the thought of purchasing it at a high price, continuing to watch the auction of the remaining items.

Unfortunately.

Until the very last item was auctioned, there was no chance for him to bid again.

“Alright, the treasures are divided. These Territory Essences go to those who didn’t win anything. Those who won the items, please pay your bidding fees to me.”

Luo Ting was evidently an experienced leader of the group.

The entire process concluded smoothly under his organized handling.

Everyone was convinced, with no disputes or conflicts arising.

Once all bidding amounts were collected, Lin You received an extra 5 million Magic Energy.

Increasing his Magic Energy to 130 million.

Plus, he just got a new Secret Treasure, so he profited a bit.

Besides, he had also killed three Lord Demons, not just boosting his Origin Space to over 780 meters but also acquiring three Lord Level Mechanical Cores.

Adding the previous two, he had a total of five.

The Leader Level and Ordinary Level ones reached 178 and 3400 respectively.

This quantity should be enough to exchange for another treasure.

Other lords seemed to share his thinking, and after distributing the items, their gaze naturally shifted to the surroundings.

“Didn’t they say you can exchange items at the Control Center? Does anyone know where it is?”

“And there’s a teleportation function, let’s activate it first.”

“Exactly, let’s bring more people over to guard it, to prevent theft by other realms.”

“Haha, with teleportation function, we finally don’t need to run back and forth every day.”

“Let’s see what items can be exchanged, hopefully, they’re not too expensive.”

Amidst the discussion, the lords scattered, exploring all around.

What amazed Lin You was.

Although the Control Center was a tall tower, the inside space was vast, with a huge light sphere floating in the air.

The light sphere was originally red.

But after their occupation, it turned crystal blue.

Strings of pure white lines floated in the air, connecting the light sphere to various directions inside the tower, resembling the neural pathways within a human brain.

Clearly.

Originally, those Mechanical Demons were commanded and controlled uniformly by this Control Center.

But due to interference, the main brain’s command was blocked, causing most machines to go into frenzy, attacking nearby things crazily.

Beneath the light sphere, a teleportation array capable of accommodating seven or eight people was located there, surrounded by Luo Ting and other lords.

Soon after, the teleportation array activated, glowing brightly.

“Success! The teleportation connecting the realm entrance has been opened!”

The lords cheered enthusiastically.

Immediately, someone took the lead, stepping into the teleportation array.

In a flash, vanished from the spot.

After a while, the glow flared again.

Besides that lord, a few more people joined the teleportation, curiously observing the surroundings.

“With this teleportation array, the realm’s people should be able to rush over soon.”

Situ Jian approached Lin You, speaking in a low voice.

It had been about three hours since he sent someone back, and by calculating the time, they should almost be there.

“You haven’t told others about this, have you?” Lin You asked.

“No.” Situ Jian nodded silently, “This kind of situation is beyond our level to handle now. Let’s see what the Great Emperors say.”

“Indeed.”

Lin You whispered.

The heart matter concerns the Ten Thousand Realms.

Someone like him at Tier Eight should avoid unnecessary involvement, lest he finds himself in mortal danger without knowing why.

While pondering.

Suddenly, from a few LCD screens in the distance, exclamations rang out.

It seemed someone found the item exchange area, immediately attracting all the lords over.

Lin You exchanged glances with Situ Jian, and promptly followed them.

Indeed, as expected.

In the light screen, the exchange interface identical to the vending machines in the outer safe zone appeared.

All options for various treasures were unlocked and ready for exchange, making the surroundings of the screen lively.

Lin You couldn’t wait to summon the interface and randomly opened the species treasure interface, where rows of species treasures immediately caught his eye.

All ten major sects were there, with levels ranging from F-level to SSS-level, and even the general type was available.

However, to his surprise, these treasures did not have fixed attributes but were randomly drawn based on the type you exchanged for.

Just like the reward the King gave him for recruiting new Lords before.

Simply put, it was like opening a mystery box.

For instance, what he was most concerned about was the Plant Type treasure.

[Species Treasure: Plant Type (Random)]

[Level: SSS]

[Effect: Randomly draw a SSS-level Plant Type species treasure.]

[Mechanical Core: Ordinary x300, Leader x30, Lord x3]

…

The highest level treasure required a total of 3 Lord-level cores for exchange.

Fortunately, Lin You had the foresight to collect 5 in advance.

Then he looked at other items, noting that they were generally priced similarly.

The SS-level required two Lord mechanical cores, while the S-level required one.

Upon reaching A-level, Lord cores were no longer needed, replaced by 30 Leader cores and 300 Ordinary cores, and so on.

All were specified type random draws.

Far superior to other places’ random rewards.

With the mechanical cores Lin You currently possessed, he could only exchange for one SSS and one SS, so careful consideration was essential.

After all, Lord Demons weren’t something you could encounter casually.

First, he didn’t need to exchange Territorial Sacred Artifacts for now.

Secondly, he wasn’t short on species.

Regarding Building Scrolls, he already had the necessary constructions like the Species Base, Hero Pool, Teleportation Array, and Protective Shield, so the demand wasn’t significant.

That left only species treasures and artifacts.

After a moment of contemplation.

He spent 3 Lord cores to exchange for a Plant Type treasure.

Then he browsed the artifact interface for a while, using the remaining two Lord-level cores to exchange for two High-level Faith Treasure Pearls.

Indeed.

The exchange interface even included such rarely seen items as High-level Faith Treasure Pearls.

Lin You wouldn’t miss this opportunity.

A whole 1000 points of faith, he didn’t know how much time it would save him, and it could quickly narrow the gap between him and those seasoned Lords.

“How is it? Did you get anything good?”

At this moment, Situ Jian’s inquiry came from beside him.

“Well, exchanged for a species treasure.” Lin You replied with a smile.

Having consecutively acquired two SSS-level treasures, he was quite in good spirits.

However, things were different for the other Lords nearby.

“Damn! A highest-level treasure requires three Lord-level mechanical cores? Why don’t they just rob us!”

“This is too extortionate, really think Lord Demons are so easy to kill?”

“Even if you could kill them, you’d have to encounter them first.”

“Ah! So many good things, they’re making my mouth water!”

“What a rip-off, looks like I’ll have to settle for exchanging a few A-level items for now.”

The Lords were complaining, though their actions betrayed their words.

One by one, they used Leader-level mechanical cores to exchange for A-level treasures.

After all, even an A-level wasn’t that easy to obtain outside.

This event, so to speak, provided them with a quick way to enhance their strength, with many benefiting from it.

Lin You observed the Lords’ situation and exchanged a few words with Situ Jian.

Then he went to a corner alone, taking out the “mystery box” he had just exchanged.

[Would you like to use the “Species Treasure (Plant Type)”?]

“Use it!”

Hearing the prompt in his mind, he chose to use it directly.

The next second.

A flash of light.

A leaf with sharp spikes along the edges appeared in his hand.

[Species Treasure: Desperate Cry]

[Treasure Type: Skill]

[Treasure Level: SSS-level]

[Effect of Treasure: Grants the summoned creatures of the species the skill “Desperate Cry”, detonating all energy upon death, allowing all similar summoned creatures within 10 meters to recover 4% health every 0.5 seconds, and increasing basic attack by 4%, non-stackable, lasting 5 seconds, usable by Plant Type.]

[Introduction: A treasure used for enhancing species that can be used in species bases, only enhancing a single type of species.]

A skill-type treasure!

And a very rare group buff skill at that!

Lin You showed a delighted expression, unable to resist praising his luck.

Although this treasure is only effective for similar summoned creatures, the effect of increasing basic attack by 4% and recovering 4% health per second is still extremely powerful.

Recovering nearly half of the health in 5 seconds, it’s practically an unkillable cockroach.

It just so happens that his Cannibal Flower’s self-destruction treasure is A-level and overlaps somewhat with the skill of Heaven-Devouring, so it can be directly replaced.

As a result.

The strength of his Undying Flower Sea would rise another level, greatly enhancing its group combat ability.

“Not bad luck.”

Lin You smiled slightly, quickly putting the treasure away.

Seeing the sky darkening outside, he didn’t stay in the Demon Plane longer, directly using the teleportation function to return to his territory through the Holy Sanctuary.

Then, he took the newly acquired treasure to the species base and replaced the Cannibal Flower’s self-destruction treasure.

As for the other treasure, the Mechanical Pulse Treasure, which increased skill duration.

He contemplated for a while, ultimately deciding to give it to the Elemental Spirit species.

Although according to the treasure’s description, this boost should also be effective for Combined Skills.

He currently only had one Demon Emperor Dragon and one Demon Queen Dragon.

The effect was really not that significant.

It’s better to give it to the Life Elemental Spirit, extending the Life Curtain’s big skill to 18 seconds—it’s certainly a qualitative leap.
