Kieran went through a selection of skills based on the optimal growth of his attributes and his battle prowess.
The [Dawn Knight Body Tempering Arts] was the first to be placed on the list.
Next was [Hand-to-Hand Combat] and [Sharp Weapon, Dagger], [Firearm Weapon, Light Firearm], [Evading], [Undercover], and [Tracking].
The last was [Barsical Kick], which was restricted by the [Dawn Knight Body Tempering Arts].
[Dawn Knight Body Tempering Arts] was Kieran's core skill, so he had to upgrade it if he could.
The attributes of [Hand-to-Hand Combat] and [Sharp Weapon, Dagger] were related to Strength, Agility, and Constitution, so they overlapped with each other. As for which one he would be able to upgrade, that would depend on whether he could purchase a pair of gloves or a dagger.
Kieran leaned towards [Sharp Weapon, Dagger] because it was 1,000 Points cheaper than [Hand-to-Hand Combat].
Based on his calculations, even if he chose the more expensive [Hand-to-Hand Combat], Kieran would only need to spend 25500 Points, 14 Skill Points, and 1 Golden Skill Point.
After selling the [Gemstone], Kieran would have 30200 Points, 14 Skill Points, and 1 Golden Skill Point. It would be a good choice for him.
He might even have a lot of Points left over.
It would be enough for him to have more choices when it came to weapons.
After all, other than the glove and dagger, Kieran had run out of grenades in his inventory.
He needed to replenish more grenades!
After using the grenades several times at the right time, Kieran had developed a special fondness for the expensive single-use grenades.
Even in the era where firearms were restricted, they were still quite powerful.
Of course, [Firearm Weapon, Explosion] and [Lockpicking] had to be upgraded from Basic to Entry or even Master level.
"I'm short on Skill Points!"
Kieran looked at the amount he had spent. He still had enough Points, but he was short on Skill Points.
"How much for 1 Skill Point?"
Kieran opened his PM tab and asked Lawless about it.
"At least 3,000 points!"
Her reply made Kieran give up completely.
Without further hesitation, Kieran sent the price tag of the 9 cracked [Gemstones] to the manager.
This time, Lawless did not reply immediately.
Instead, he was silent for a moment.
The other party's private messages started ringing —
Lawless: Bro, where did you get so many gems?
Lawless: Raiding a dragon's nest?
Lawless: Aren't you a newbie? It was impossible to encounter a Giant Dragon!
Lawless: This guy's luck is amazing!
…
A series of astonishment and incredulity
Moreover, the words were still appearing non-stop.
As for Lawless guessing that Kieran was a newbie, it was not a big deal.
From Kieran's previous questions about underground gaming, it was enough to show that Kieran was not a veteran player, but a newbie who had gotten lucky.
2567: Cut the crap! Deal!
Kieran said straightforwardly.
From Kieran's point of view, no matter how he looked at it, Lawless was a worthy friend.
The only flaw was his nagging.
Kieran was sure that if he didn't stop her right away, this kind of one-sided communication would continue endlessly.
Lawless: I can't eat that!
Lawless: Let me introduce you to a guy!
Lawless: And among your 9 gems, 5 of them are rubies and 3 of them are emeralds!
Lawless: There is one price for each gem, but if you sell all of them together, it's a different price!
2567: How much?
Lawless: 5 rubies, 12000 Points and 7 Skill Points
Lawless: 3 emeralds, 7000 Points and 4 Skill Points
Lawless: Wait for me, I'll contact that guy!
...
After saying that, Lawless' name temporarily dimmed down.
Kieran couldn't help but smirk.
The extra 3000 Points and 3 Skill Points were enough for him to choose from.
That was the best thing that could happen to him.
Lawless's honesty won Kieran's favor again.
Honesty, no matter when, is a quality worthy of praise.
As for trust?
It was too early to talk about that.
After a while, Lawless added a player called Blacksmith to their chat, forming a three-man chat group.
Lawless: 2567, give the price to Blacksmith!
Lawless: Blacksmith, this is the 2567 who sold me the [Tekken-2] rocket launcher!
Lawless: Blacksmith, you didn't see how heroic I was when I used the rocket launcher to bomb the Drake. It was a huge loss!
Lawless: 2567, if you're looking for embedding, look for this guy. It won't be a problem!
Lawless: It's a shame that the Drake only has a tiny bit of dragon blood. Although it's powerful, it doesn't have the habit of collecting treasures!
Lawless: What a bad review!
...
Ignoring Lawless's nagging, Kieran gave Blacksmith a price.
According to the price that Lawless had mentioned before.
5 rubies: 12000 Points, 7 Skill Points!
3 emeralds: 7000 Points, 4 Skill Points!
1 topaz: 2000 Points, 1 Skill Point!
The player named Blacksmith also ignored Lawless and confirmed the trade. After that, his name dimmed down.
Kieran looked at the 21000 Points and 12 Skill Points in his hand. He then left a message to Lawless, asking for a Good quality dagger or glove (right hand) that was worth around 1000 Points. Then, he was ready to close the message.
However, after some thought, Kieran added, "Magic Rank is fine too!"
As for Rare or Legendary?
Kieran would not even think about it.
Even if there was, it wasn't something that he could afford right now.
...
Somewhere in the underground game.
Lawless, who was typing excitedly, sent another ten messages in a row. Only then did he notice that 2567 and Blacksmith's names had dimmed down.
"Damn it!
Why are you like this?
You only care about the opposite sex! "
Lawless immediately began to denounce 2567 and Blacksmith in both words and in writing.
Lawless mumbled to himself for more than ten minutes. It was as if Kieran and Blacksmith had really done something that angered the heavens and the people.
Lawless only stopped when his friend list was flashing.
Monien!
Lawless frowned as he looked at the name.
Monien was also a closed beta player like himself.
He did not like Monien at all.
However, as a broker, Monien was able to bring him a lot of benefits.
That was why Monien was in his friend list.
Lawless: What's up?
Monien: One of my old clients, Starbeck, wants to enter his fifth dungeon. He needs a reliable team.
Lawless: I'm alone.
Monien: Where's Blacksmith?
Lawless: Don't drag anyone else into this!
Monien: What about that lucky newbie? He's strong and can lower the dungeon entry count!
Monien: He's the best teammate!
Lawless: I told you, don't drag anyone else into this!
Monien: You know I can give him a reasonable price. Why don't you ask around for me? You can't replace that lucky newbie, can you?
...
Lawless was rendered speechless when he heard the last part of the sentence.
He knew that Monien would give him a price that 2567 would not be able to refuse.
However, just as Monien had said, he could not replace 2567!
"XXX, damn it!"
