Chapter 180: Red Scorpions
The next day, the three suns were completely illuminating the Seventh World, the heat was everywhere.
It's been a week since Liu Yang had arrived in the City of the Desert, he became the most famous person in town, whether by wealth, influence or the beautiful women who accompanied him. Those who had some influence in the city wanted to make some kind of good relationship with him, but it was a pity that Liu Yang had refused them all.
One of the influential chiefs made a visit, he wanted to settle on the subject of his son, the young man who had his arms and legs broken by Liu Yang. The chief's name was Clark Green, he was the chief of the Wind Tribe.
The chief of the tribe offered Liu Yang various items and some beautiful virgins from his tribe, the girls were not reluctant to be handed over to another person as servants or slaves, otherwise they were happy with this, for, in order to survive in this desert, it was necessary to be strong or have someone strong to depend on.
The girls had confidence in their beauty, although they were not as beautiful as the twins sister that Liu Yang had bought, they were still great beauties, but the reality was hard, Liu Yang refused them all, this response left them all disappointed. Although he refused all women, he did not refuse the items, among the items that the chief of the Clark tribe presented, there was a strange item.
The item was a piece of wood with some inscriptions, it was as if it had been cut through something. The clan chief did not know what it was or the use of that piece of wood, so he handed it to Liu Yang because it was a strange item.
...
Liu Yang was walking the streets of the city, he was heading towards the Hunters' Association, he wanted to register a name for his group and also take some hunting missions.
This time he was alone because whenever the women were with him, there would be a lot of undesired attention. Because of this, he left them in the Desert Hunter Tribe' mansion, having put up spells of reinforcement and protection barriers in the room, Liu Yang was confident that his women would be safe.
The place of the association was a large building made of white stone, it looked quite old, there was a large plaque with blue letters at the entrance with the following words: Hunter Association.
People were coming and going by the entrance, some were shouting for partners to form a group, while others were offering their services. The place was quite busy.
By the time Liu Yang appeared at the entrance, he caught everyone's attention. Several private conversations began to surface over him.
Liu Yang did not care about this, he just walked toward the service desk, in the middle of the way, there was a large stone frame with multiple papers pasted, this was the missions picture. There were a hunt of desert beasts, search for forge materials, medicinal herbs and among other things.
The interior of the building was quite large and noisy, there were tables and chairs, several groups were drinking some kind of drink as they laughed and talked.
Behind the counter was a beautiful young woman with long, golden hair, her smile was captivating. By the time Liu Yang got close to the counter, the young woman greeted him.
"Hello young adventurer, how can I help you?" The young woman's voice was sweet and gentle.
"I would like to register a group"
"What is the name of your group, sir?"
"My group's name is Desert Travelers"
"Wait a moment, sir, I'll check if this name is available." She closed her eyes briefly.
Hearing these words, Liu Yang remembered the records of online games in his previous world.
"I apologize sir, but that name is not available, try another name"
"It could be Van and the Pirates of the Desert"
"Wait a moment"
"Sir, that name is available. Are you sure you want to choose that name? "
"Yes"
"Alright, the name of your group will be called: Van and the Desert Pirates. Here is the nameplate "
"How can I include my teammates in my group?"
"How many people are in the group?"
"Twenty"
"Sir, take this. You can deliver these nameplates to your teammates, if the two are teammates, the board will show a small window, the two just need to be accepted, and the teammate will be a member of your group. "
"Thank you for your help"
"Thank you for using our service, something else that you need help with?"
"Yes, I would like to know the rewards the association offers in exchange for the materials obtained by defeating the desert beasts"
"Sir, here is the list of rewards." The clerk handed a large book to Liu Yang.
Leafing through the book, the information Liu Yang saw, were the same as Aster Sands had shown him before, but the association book was more complete in terms of information.
While Liu Yang was distracted by leafing through the information book, a group of people entered the association, each of them having an arrogant and bloodthirsty aura. They had a tattoo of a red scorpion on their arms.
Seeing that group, many people began to be afraid, no one dared to make a single sound.
The person who appeared to be the leader arrived in front of the counter, he looked at the beautiful attendant with eyes of lust before taking out a cloth bag and placed it on the counter.
The attendant did not care for the warm glances of the man in front of her, she just took the bag and looked at the contents. It took her a few seconds to finish.
"Sir, here are a total of nine hearts, nine scales, nine eyes, twenty paws, these items are parts of the same creature: The Sand Lizard. Right?"
"Yes." The man's voice was arrogant.
"What would you like to receive in exchange for these items?"
"I want recovery potions and antidotes"
"A moment, sir"
...
"Sir, here are the items you asked for. Check to see if it's all right. "
The man just stared at the contents of the bag the clerk brought before he turned and walked away. His arrogant attitude aroused discontent in many of the places, but no one dared to speak out, for everyone knew that this group was quite terrible.
Before turning around, the man glanced at Liu Yang who was flipping through the information book, a hint of coldness in his eyes. Liu Yang realized this, but he only pretended he did not notice that look. After the group left, the animation returned.
"Attendant, do you know who that group was?"
"Yes, they belong to a group called" Red Scorpions, "this group is quite infamous in the city, they are a group of thieves who do everything for money. No one in the city dares to fight them because they are extremely strong, the city's influential groups do not conflict with them, because the red scorpions do not meddle in their affairs. These items they have just brought probably from some group they stole, young man be careful with them "
From the words of the attendant, Liu Yang was able to understand several things, he found it extremely normal. Finishing leafing through the book, he decided to return to the Desert Hunters Tribe's mansion, for tomorrow will be the day he and the women will venture out into the desert.
