Luo Jun's original plan had been to wait until everyone returned, then pool their money together. But now, waiting indefinitely was not an option. If Lei Huoshan and Miyamoto Haru had truly met with some accident, continuing to wait would only harm them. The best way to save them was, in fact, to clear the stage as quickly as possible. With that in mind, Luo Jun picked up the catalog. The three of them had earned a total of 1,860 gold coins from their tasks. Based on the prices listed in the catalog, they could buy several decent items.
"Then I'll take these..." Luo Jun looked over the catalog. "A Pathfinding Rope, large size; five Blink Daggers; five bottles of Troll Blood; and five Brilliant Gemstones..."
"Certainly." Seeing business finally arrive, the shopkeeper beamed. "The Pathfinding Rope is 700 gold coins. Blink Daggers are 60 each, so that's 300. Troll Blood is 50 per bottle, 250 for five. Brilliant Gemstones are 120 each, 600 for five. The total comes to 1,850..." After that spending spree, they had only ten gold coins left. Still, these items truly were invaluable tools for exploring a maze. According to its description, Troll Blood was an alchemical material, but drinking it directly could speed up wound healing, making it a Healing Potion of sorts. The Blink Dagger worked exactly as its name suggested: after throwing it, one could blink to wherever the dagger landed. As for Brilliant Gemstones, they had no practical use, but according to the description, every race—even monsters—loved these glittering treasures. They could be used to trade with other creatures in the maze or build rapport with them.
But the most useful item was probably the Pathfinding Rope.
As its name implied, this rope was meant for maze exploration. Legend had it
