Choice

Very quickly, Lawless responded—

"2,000 Points, 1 Skill Point!"

It was an offer well within Qin Ran's expected price range.

There might be some slight fluctuation, but it definitely would not be too great. After several dealings with the other party, Qin Ran trusted him.

Of course, that trust was reserved!

Several unpleasant experiences in the past had long made Qin Ran accustomed to holding something back whenever he trusted anyone.

"What about socketing?"

Qin Ran continued asking.

"For socketing, it's anywhere from 500 to 1,000 Points. At 1,000 Points, success is basically guaranteed!"

The other party replied instantly again.

Clearly, he knew quite a bit about Gems and socketing.

"Are you selling them?"

"Gems sell quite well among veteran players!"

The other party asked.

"I'll think about it."

That was Qin Ran's answer.

He was not brushing him off. He truly needed to consider it.

His gaze turned toward his Points and Skill Point columns.

[Points: 12200]

[Skill Points: 5]

[Gold Skill Points: 1]

[Gold Attribute Points: 1]

The double-S rating had not only pushed Qin Ran's Points past ten thousand again, but also restored his depleted Skill Points to a barely acceptable level.

The appearance of Gold Skill Points and Gold Attribute Points delighted Qin Ran even more.

The former was closely tied to the skill Dawn Knight Body-Tempering Art.

The latter was even more straightforward: any attribute +1.

Moreover, they could be used within an instance without returning to his room and going through the Shop.

Such gains would have been considered plentiful by anyone.

But for Qin Ran, they were far from enough!
