With the auctioneer calling for final bids, Lassim entered his amount and pressed the bid button with a firm, decisive click. His action sent a ripple through the room.
The auctioneer paused, the large jump in price shocking the few remaining bidders as it was already high for this type of item. Then the hostess announced, "We have a bid of 100 high-grade elemental source stones from the VIP suite!" The statement marking the climax of the bidding war.
