Chapter 129: Preparations Before Entering the Instance
The next day.
Chen Ran initially wanted to have a Death Row inmate lead the way. However, according to the Pillar Rules, Death Row inmates could only walk for one hour a day. Since Chen Ran was only willing to pay a single Point, the inmate simply turned and walked away, returning to the bottom of the Apartment Block to stand like a corpse with a fake smile, waiting for a better employer.
Chen Ran was speechless.
'It is this guy who just recently became a Death Row inmate again. That look in his eyes just now...'
'Was he calling me a pauper?'
They had spent quite a bit yesterday. Between the two of them, their combined Points amounted to a mere twenty-five.
They each needed to keep five Points in reserve for emergencies, leaving them with only fifteen usable Points. Out of that, they still had to buy a Tracking Talisman, food, medicine, and other supplies.
Given their level of poverty, a Death Row inmate was probably wealthier than they were.
Unable to hire a Death Row inmate for a single Point, they had no choice but to head to the Commercial District on their own. Without a guide, they tread carefully the entire way.
