When the bid of 500,000 utility points appeared, the crowd instantly went silent.
This price had far exceeded the market price of the weapon, even if it was being sold in an auction.
Was this gun actually worth 500,000? The answer was a definite yes!
But the crucial point was that more than ninety-nine percent of those who would use 'Repentance' were gunners.
Given the awkward position of gunners in a party in the later stages, even a gunner who was a core member of a party could only fork out 400,000 utility points for it, at most. That was already almost 50% above the market price.
Honestly, that was already the absolute limit even if the gunner himself was the party leader. Any higher and he might not be able to explain himself to his party members.
Let's say, in the real world, the Department of Defense of the United States went to an Iraqi warlord and told him, "Our B-2 bombers are amazing! How about we sell one to you for only USD$100 million? Pretty cheap, right?"
