Infinite Survival: I Can Plunder Passive Skills Chapter 87 – Bounty

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The two of them went to a weapons shop.

This weapon shop looked much smaller than the Silver Frost Smithy in Snowy Peak City, and there were fewer high-quality weapons. They only saw two mid bronze weapons marked by the system. They were quite expensive as well, costing 30 gold coins.

Zhou Chen did not have a strong demand for these weapons, so he did not buy them. The tall girl could not afford them because she had run out of gold coins.

After the weapons shop, the two of them visited the armor shop.

The so-called armor shop was where they sold leather armor, light armor, heavy armor, and other defensive suits. Considering that the clothes the two of them were wearing could not endure the cold in this world, they each bought an ordinary leather armor made of snow wolf skin.

This leather armor was marked as a low bronze item by the system. It could be brought back to Planet Blue and was not expensive. It was one gold coin per set. Zhou Chen had lent a gold coin to the tall girl.

After putting on the warm leather armor, the two of them left the store and walked toward the inn.

In fact, they wanted to visit the other shops, but it was already night time. Many shops had begun to close.

Relying on the bright moonlight and the dim yellow kerosene light leaking from the windows of some houses in the city, the two of them walked on the graveled path towards the Warm Forest Inn.

Along the way, they saw some people who looked like businessmen who were hastening toward the inns. They saw some people wandering around with tattoos all over their faces and malicious gazes. They even encountered a few children who deliberately approached them to touch their pockets, but they were all chased away. Nothing special happened.

“This place is really messy at night. All kinds of bad elements appear openly.”

After walking for a while, Zhou Chen said to the tall girl.

“Hmm… I feel like the friends of those thugs in the alley might have targeted us.”

The girl looked around alertly and replied.

“No way, you’re probably too nervous.”

Zhou Chen also observed his surroundings and did not sense any danger, nor did he discover any particularly suspicious figures. Or rather, there were too many suspicious figures in the surroundings, making him feel numb.

“Wine… give me wine…”

At this moment, a drunkard with unkempt hair and untrimmed beard staggered over. His dazed eyes noticed Zhou Chen, and he extended his hand to ask for wine.

Bang!

Zhou Chen did not waste time on him. He directly kicked the drunkard to the side of the wall; the drunkard slid off the wall, unconscious.

‘I might have used too much strength, will this person freeze to death if he passes out here?’

Zhou Chen continued forward without caring much.

His actions seemed to have taken some effect. There were clearly fewer people observing them.

A few minutes later, they arrived at a narrow path. The houses on both sides were dark, and the lighting was poor.

Zhou Chen walked in at a moderate pace with the tall girl beside him.

Suddenly, Zhou Chen quickened his pace and walked to the front alone.

He even hummed a tune, as if he was in a very good mood.

He gradually moved closer to the side of the path.

A few seconds later, a cold light suddenly appeared in the darkness, swiping at Zhou Chen’s neck.

The cold light flew to the side and landed on the ground. At the same time, there was a muffled sound of something hitting the wall and a muffled groan.

“Who is it!”

The tall girl immediately went forward to check.

In the dim light, a thin man was lying on the wall beside Zhou Chen. The man’s chest had sunk in, and he was suffocating.

“How did this person suddenly appear?”

The tall girl looked at the thin man who was about to die and asked Zhou Chen.

She had clearly checked the surroundings carefully earlier and did not discover a third person other than them.

“I’m not sure, maybe he has the ability to hide. Fortunately, I reacted quickly, or else he would have slit my throat.”

Zhou Chen replied calmly.

“No, you clearly noticed him long ago and were baiting him. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have suddenly acted strangely.”

The tall girl did not believe him.

“Alright…”

Zhou Chen also knew that his acting was lousy, so he admitted it.

“I did find some clues, but I didn’t expect to really bait someone. Unfortunately, I used too much strength; otherwise, I could have asked him some questions.”

Zhou Chen was telling the truth. He had discovered this man with the Bloodthirst skill. But he was unable to see any outline of this person with his sight, so he came to test him.

At this moment, the thin man whose chest had been punched in by Zhou Chen had already stopped breathing. Zhou Chen bent down and skillfully searched his body.

“12 gold coins and 16 silver coins. This person has a lot of money in his pouch… and there is this paper.”

He took out the lighter and lit it, illuminating the paper.

“Six gold coins for the heads of a man and a woman. Their characteristics are: the man is wearing a mask that covers his mouth and nose…”

“He was really looking for us. This person seems to have accepted a bounty offer. This speed is too fast.”

Zhou Chen was surprised. Only an hour had passed since they killed those thugs, he did not expect that someone would place a bounty on them so soon.

“As expected, my feeling is correct. This person or his accomplices were following us.”

The tall girl also saw the content on the paper.

“This is good too. I hope the next person who comes will have more money.”

Zhou Chen put away the money pouch from the thin man and looked at the dagger dropped to the side.

“The dagger is not marked by the system. What a miser. He clearly has money but doesn’t buy a good weapon.”

After complaining, Zhou Chen left the path with the tall girl, leaving behind a corpse that had been completely looted.

“I plan to take bounty missions after checking the remaining places tomorrow.”

The tall girl suddenly said.

“Oh… I plan to search for information about those potion materials after I finish exploring all the stores tomorrow.”

Zhou Chen replied calmly.

He had already made plans for the next few days. His main goal was to try to obtain the permanent-effect potions.

“If there’s no hope of obtaining them, I’ll earn money to buy some weapons and healing potions.”

There was a possibility that he could not obtain those potion materials. In that case, he could only buy other things..
