"you……"

The white-clad Ursus man paused for a moment, then became enraged.

"I wouldn't dare to cause trouble for the officials, but I dare to cause trouble for you."

"What kind of nonsense is it to bully infected people?"

"Go ahead and fight me if you dare."

He actually admitted directly that he didn't dare to cause trouble for the officials. What an interesting person.

"Oh? You want to fight?"

"Okay, there's a ring here anyway."

"Let's have a match and see who loses."

"Don't forget, the person who sells the book has to pay you."

"My request isn't high, just 500 LMD. Can you afford that?"

"Or perhaps..."

The gray-haired Ursus man looked the white-haired Ursus man up and down, a mocking smile appearing on his lips.

"You can't afford it?"

"Yes, if you could afford it, your sister wouldn't be suffering from Oripathy and be unable to find a cure, right?"

"Ha ha……"

His taunts escalated to attacks on the families of the White Ursus.

However, these words made it clear to those around them that the two people probably knew each other.

Moreover, it's estimated that they had quite a few grudges against each other, which is why they couldn't help but start fighting here.

"Huh? No..."

Skadi, being a keen observer, saw something different.

"The two of them know each other and have a good relationship."

"This is all an act."

"The purpose was to trick people around him into betting and winning money."

"Let me see..."

“If they’re doing this to do good, then I’ll help them; if not…”

Skadi doesn't mind doing good for the people; after all, once she has clarified her path, the more she does such things, the more beneficial it will be for her.

Her only worry was whether doing so would be too high-profile and attract the attention of some "officials".

Ursus is plagued by bureaucracy, largely due to the power of the country's old aristocracy.

Chernobyl was also under the rule of the old aristocracy, and she didn't think that the other party would be happy with what she did.

"Let's take a look first..."

Although she had some concerns, she decided to wait and see before making a decision.

"Are we going to fight?"

"Our arena is free to use."

"However, if you break anything, you'll have to pay for it at the original price."

Suddenly, one of the Ursus people who was watching from the sidelines spoke up and said these words.

"Come on, come on, place your bet now!"

"Let's see who wins this match, haha..."

Everything started smoothly, as if this had happened more than once or twice.

"Um?"

After seeing the people around her placing bets, Skadi considered it for a moment, then decided not to place any bets herself. Instead, she went to pay her bill and left the tavern.

"Just wait for them."

Skadi pulled at her hooded cloak, then left the tavern and went to the back alley where she stood.

As she waited, the sky suddenly darkened, dark clouds covered Chernobog, and a light drizzle began to fall, which quickly turned into a downpour.

But she didn't leave; instead, she stood in the rain, still waiting for the person she wanted.

More than half an hour after the rain started, the back door of the tavern opened, and two huge figures were thrown out, landing not far from her.

"pat..."

Two Ursus men lay face down beside Skadi, buried in the sewage, motionless, as if they were dead.

Chapter 46: What exactly is Rhodes Island, this organization?

"Shout, you two pieces of trash!"

The Ursus who threw them out didn't seem to see Skadi. After spitting at the two of them, he chuckled and closed the door.

"It looks like they've been used up."

Skadi watched them lying there quietly for a few minutes, and only after seeing their hands twitch did she step on the ground.

"Who are you?"

The sound of footsteps made the two Ursus men immediately scramble to their feet, ignoring the filth covering their faces, and stand up, looking around warily.

But they didn't see anyone, as if the footsteps they had just heard were fake.

But as they looked ahead and saw the petite figure slowly emerging in the rain, their eyes filled with wariness and fear.

"I am a traveler."

"Just a rather special traveler."

"Interested in chatting?"

Most of her face was hidden under the hood, with only a sliver of her red lips showing.

Seeing her acting so mysteriously, the two Ursus men were somewhat distrustful of her.

"Ah."

A hand, hidden in her cloak, emerged, holding a stack of Lungmen dollars.

"I think you would like to talk about it."

Nothing is as useful as money.

After seeing so much money, the two of them exchanged a wary glance, but accepted her invitation nonetheless.

"Come with me, let's go somewhere we can chat."

Skadi turned around and slowly left the alley.

After hesitating for a moment, the two of them followed.

Although they didn't know what she was going to do, they needed the money...

"sit down."

Skadi led them to another, more upscale hotel, and then had the staff take them to wash up and change into new clothes before they went to the VIP room she had rented.

She sat on the sofa, looked at the two reserved Ursus men, and gestured for them to sit on another sofa.

"Who are you?"

After sitting down, the white-clad Ursus man couldn't help but ask a question.

"I'm the one who saw you arguing with him in the pub, and then you started fighting."

"I know you're acting, and I want to know why."

Skadi explained her situation and her doubts very clearly.

There's no particular reason.

"It's just for making money."

"I need to save enough money for the trip so I can take my sister to Rhodes Island for treatment."

“My friend, Anika, acted with me to help me.”

Hearing this, Anika, the Ursus woman standing nearby, reached out and nudged him. "Dalia, there's no need to be so explicit..."

He was worried that his friend would be manipulated by Skadi, which would be terrible.

"This is a recommended business card for visiting Rhodes Island."

Upon hearing Dalia's words, Skadi took out a regular Rhodes Island referral card and placed it on the table.

"You...how do you have this?"

With doubt and distrust in my heart, I picked up the business card on the table.

He then became excited, and his hands trembled slightly.

"If you're going to Rhodes Island, you should recognize this, right?"

Skadi didn't explain, she just asked him a question.

"Know……"

He was quite familiar with these business cards because he was going to Rhodes Island.

"Ever since the Tower of Babel disbanded and the remaining members formed Rhodes Island, these business cards have started appearing on the continent of Terra."

"As long as you have this business card, you can get the opportunity to go to Rhodes Island. Moreover, all travel expenses will be reimbursed by Rhodes Island, and treatment will be free."

"Although the cost is serving Rhodes Island, it's much better than having to spend a huge amount of money to treat Oripathy."

"Each card has a unique number and can only be used once. After that, the number of the card will become invalid and it can no longer be used."
