134 Ciudad de las Minas de Sal

A majestic city appeared in the middle of the desert. The city was fortified with high stone walls while a large steel gate was guarding the entrance.

A long line of people with carriages and horses were waiting to enter. Many people were only wearing casual clothes while others wear luxury clothes. But they all had the same goal: to enter the city.

A group of guards was checking people who were trying to enter the city. They were the security guards in charge of the verification.

"Soldiers, stay free !!! Open the way "!!! Someone over the wall shouted.

"Everyone get away !!! Someone is coming !!!! " The guards began to disperse the crowd in the queue. Everyone looked towards the horizon to see who the guards were waiting for.

A shadow in the middle of the desert began to appear. Soon, the shadow took the form of a person wearing a black cloak walking while dragging several giant creatures, the creatures were tied one after the other.

"What is it???!!!!!"

"Who is that person????!!!!"

"How is this possible????"

…

The people in line exclaimed when they saw the seven giant desert beasts being dragged as if they were nothing. The person who dragged was very strong.

"Everyone should get away from the gate !!!!" The guards shouted at the people in line.

The person dressed in the black cloak walked slowly to the gate, he was greeted by a middle-aged man who wore a set of leather clothes.

"Dear guest, my name is Carlos Prats. I welcome you to Ciudad de las Minas de Sal. Can I find out if the esteemed guest is already a resident of the city? " The middle-aged man spoke in a courteous tone.

"I am just a traveler. I would like to stay in the city for a few days "The voice of the person wearing the black cloak was a little hoarse, but I could tell it was male.

"The city welcomes travelers very well. You can enter. Dear guest, do you need any help? "

"Yes, I would like to know where I can sell these desert beasts"

"I can guide you to the location if you wish"

"Show the way"

"Yes," Carlos Prats did not ask if he could help carry the beasts. He understood that the other side had a great physical body and that help was unnecessary.

The two entered the city under the envious, jealous and admiring looks of the people who were in line.

…

The sudden appearance of someone unknown, dragging seven desert beasts through the city streets, attracted all kinds of people out of curiosity. Many of them were people who work for the city's influential groups.

"Look at that !!! It's a Desert Crab !! They say its meat is tender and juicy "

"It's not just one, but three crabs, two Iron Shell Scorpions and a Giant Red Snake"

"Who is this person? For him to be able to defeat these creatures and drag them here, he must be very strong "

…

People around began to comment on the creatures being dragged through the streets.

"Do you think the influential groups will try to recruit that person?"

"I don't think so, he seems to be a traveler. The guards at the entrance commented on this "

…

Carlos Prats and the person wearing the black cloak walked for some time until they reached the entrance to a commercial building. The place was full of people curious to see the giant creatures.

"Dear guest, this is the place where we evaluate and sell the beasts hunted in the desert." Carlos Prats pointed to the building with a large stone sign: Commerce in General.

The building was gigantic with only five floors, but each floor was quite tall. The place was completely decorated with many types of expensive and luxurious ornaments.

"Can you call someone to evaluate this for me?"

"Yes, wait a moment" Carlos Prats picked up a phone and called.

"Wait just a moment. The appraiser is coming, he is finishing evaluating something inside the building. "

"No problems. I wait a little bit "

…

"Security chief Carlos Prats, who is this person?" A group of young people with bronze skin asked. They saw that the other side was someone who was dragging the giant beasts with his own hands.

The boys were wearing only shorts and some accessories like bracelets and earrings while the girls wore short and revealing clothes, they even had bikini marks on their shoulders and waists.

"Little chiefs, he is the person who brought these desert beasts to the city. He's a great guest from our city for today "Carlos Prats also needed to be courteous to the group of young people in front of him.

The group of young people who appeared are children of the big shots that govern the Ciudad de las Minas de Sal.

"I see ... He seems to be strong enough to do that. These desert beasts are not easy to kill, especially with bare hands "A young man in the group said, he wore only shorts and had several tattoos on his body.

The group looked at the hands of the person dressed in black and saw that it was covered in blood. They imagined that he defeated the creatures using his own hands.

"Little bosses, do you have any kind of business with the esteemed guest?" Carlos Prats did not know what to do, he does not have the luxury of offending both sides. He prefers to side with the youth group, but he also realized that the side of the person dressed in black was also dangerous.

"No, we are just curious to know about him. But it seems that it will be impossible at the moment. We will meet another time "The tattooed young man spoke, he saw that the other side had no intention of revealing himself.

"Let's go" The group left afterward, but they sent spies to try to discover the true identity of the person dressed in the black cloak.

"Dear guest, those people are the children of the most influential leaders in the city. I recommend that you take care of them. " Carlos Prats later commented that the youth group left. He would not dare to say that kind of thing in front of young people.

"Do not worry about it. As long as they don't offend me, I won't offend them. "The casual tone was heard under the hood.

"I apologize for the delay, I was evaluating another item" An old man wearing light clothes appeared at the entrance, he had wrinkled eyes and dark skin.

"Do not worry about it"

"Dear guest, he is the evaluator, Axel Cotilla. He is one of the most respected evaluators in the city "

"It's nice to meet you" Axel held out his hand. The other side did the same and the two shake hands.

"What kind of items do I need to evaluate?"

"Mr. Axel, I need you to evaluate these creatures and tell their value" Carlos Prats pointed to the giant beasts on the street.

"This is ..." Axel was shocked by the number of dead beasts. This was the first time he had seen anyone bringing whole beasts into the city.

"Is it impossible to evaluate?"

"No, I was just surprised to see the whole beasts." Axel started looking closely at the desert beasts.

"Interesting… Very interesting. These crabs and scorpions are rank 2 desert beasts while the snake is rank 3. I estimate that all this can be worth four hundred thousand Pans "Pans is the currency money of the union.

"All of this? !!!" Carlos Prats was shocked when he heard the figures. He has never seen that amount of money before in his life. Only influential groups had that amount.

The crowd around them was also shocked, but at the same time, they felt jealous and envious, as the amount of money was very large. None of them would have a chance to have that much money in their lives.

"Yes. These desert beasts are very difficult to kill and when they are killed. Many parts are dropped in the desert, but these beasts here are whole. This greatly increases its value. Dear customer, do you want to sell these items or make an exchange? "

"Half to half. I want a part in cash and part in return "

"Dear customer, our store will not disappoint you. As for these items, can you leave them out here? Our store will take it inside "

"I will be looking forward to seeing your items. It is easier for me to carry these beasts. Show the way "

"Yes, dear customer" Axel started to lead the way. The two followed closely and entered the store.

…

News of seven desert beasts being sold for four hundred thousand Pans spread throughout the city. This aroused a lot of jealousy and envy among many people, even those who are part of the influential groups.

Some people even started thinking about stealing that money, but after remembering that the person in black killed seven desert beasts and one of them was rank 3, some gave up on the idea while others thought of other methods to steal.

The influential groups were thinking about how to discover the origin and background of the person dressed in black. He being a traveler was just a disguise, many thought.

From the image of the hand and the voice, the smart leaders realized that the person in black was someone male and young or adult. The hand was smooth and had no dry skin.

They began to think of giving beautiful young women as a gift in good faith.

Desert life was cruel, the weak were subjugated or enslaved by the powerful, or even killed. While the strong rule.

Women were treated as objects, as the same for men.

If the person is strong enough, that person will have his freedom. That was the Law of the Desert.
