Shen He's voice sounded somewhat puzzled.
"Huh?" Su Hao was also stunned. A name? What name?! He really hadn't thought of that.
"A name?" Coral Palace Heart Sea pondered for a moment before asking, "Is the name of the Gilded Brigade really that important?"
“Hmm.” Farusan nodded seriously, and said with some helplessness, “The Gilded Brigade is just a general name, which includes tribes and mercenaries.”
"A tribe is unlikely, because any tribes with names and surnames in the desert region are registered in the void."
"As for mercenary groups, although some are registered, there are still a lot of mercenary groups whose names need to be registered every day."
"So if possible, if you're going to disguise yourself as the Gilded Brigade, you'll still need to register a name. This will reduce the chances of you being exposed."
Upon hearing this, the group continued walking forward while pondering the name of the Gilded Brigade.
"How about the Akatsuki?" Su Hao suggested a name. Since he was thinking about an organization, how could he not mention the name of Asia's number one group?
“No way.” Farusan shook her head and refused, “Just by the name, you can tell it’s a mercenary group founded by people from another country!”
"The Herring Mercenary Group?" Coral Palace Heart Sea suggested.
"?" Farusan looked at Coral Palace Heart Sea with some strangeness. She complained, "Water is a precious resource in the desert. How could anyone name a mercenary group after a fish?"
"The names should be based on ferocious beasts such as lions, tigers, and leopards. In other words, you should include the names of powerful creatures in your mind."
As she said this, Farusan couldn't help but sigh. Then she noticed that everyone had stopped walking, and she asked in confusion, "Why did you stop?"
"Someone's coming," Su Hao said, looking ahead. "They seem to be here to rob us; they've already surrounded us."
“This is the second time,” Black Ella said calmly. “And it’s the same old acquaintance.”
"An old acquaintance?" Hisa Shinobu tilted her head slightly, not quite sure who the old acquaintance was. Her perception was still somewhat inferior to that of the two of them.
They could only vaguely sense that someone was surrounding them, and that the person was... somewhat weak, slightly stronger than a Hilichurl.
"Ah."
Ella and Shen He nodded in agreement; they were indeed old acquaintances.
"Hahahahaha!!!"
At that moment, a familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar laugh rang out.
A tall man wielding a scimitar looked at Su Hao and his group ahead and said, "Scholar of the Order of the Church and her guards, you are very lucky today to have encountered our guild, [Scorpion of the Crimson Sands]."
"Our guild, [Red Sand Scorpion], has only been established for a short time, so you are our guild's second client."
"As this is our second business deal, we won't go after you completely. You can take some of your valuables with you when you leave here."
"After all, that young and beautiful lady is a scholar from the Order of the Church, and I don't want to make a big fuss about it."
Chapter 308 Arrival at Sumeru City
Looking at the burly man in front of them, Su Hao and the others were speechless, seemingly unsure of what to say.
"He was released so quickly?"
Su Hao looked at Hisagi Shinobu beside him and couldn't help but ask in confusion, "So fast??? They came out already?"
How come these guys are out here after only a week?!
This is highway robbery! And they were released in less than ten days? This applies to Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma.
Those who commit robbery on the road are usually detained for about a month, and at the earliest, they can only be released after twenty days.
So he was released after only a week, seven days? And judging from the looks of it, it seems he was released even earlier.
"?"
Hisaki Shinobu also tilted his head, seemingly not quite understanding the situation before him. Didn't the Sumeru Law say that one should be imprisoned for fifteen days?
How come it came out in less than ten days?
"No matter what, let's take care of them first." Black Ella wanted to get rid of them; they were just a bunch of small fry anyway, so there was no need to waste the young master's time.
"Do you know them?"
Farusan watched Su Hao and the others talking with some surprise, not expecting that they actually knew this group of gilded troupes.
"Yes, I know him. He robbed us seven days ago and we locked him up afterwards."
Ella nodded slightly and said calmly, "Although I don't know why they came out, locking them back in this time shouldn't be too difficult."
As he said this, Hisaki Shinobu silently pulled out his frying pan again, ready to make a second attempt.
"Let's take them down first."
Shen He also raised his hands, clearly intending to physically defeat them.
Although this place is some distance from Huacheng Guo, it is still within the patrol range of the forest rangers. After subduing them, the rest can be left to the forest rangers.
During the conversation, Shen He and Jiu Qiren were about to make their move, while the burly man in front of them had not yet recognized Su Hao and his group.
He was still laughing loudly, saying, "They've already started discussing how many Mora to pay?!"
"Don't worry, I'm not greedy. A few hundred thousand Mora will suffice. My brothers all depend on me for their livelihood."
As the burly man was saying this, he suddenly saw Hisaki Shinobu take out a frying pan, and his smile instantly froze.
"Our leader is awesome! Our leader is so powerful!!!"
"Hahaha!! The first order was a failure! The second one will be a piece of cake!"
"With our leader guiding us, we'll be living the high life sooner or later!"
"Yeah! Those guys who ran away! They'll never do as well as us in the future."
The others didn't notice that their leader's smile had frozen, and they continued shouting.
Scholars of the Order of the Church! They're a real fat sheep!
Furthermore, the mercenaries and guards brought by those scholars were all worthless cowards; how could they compare to these warriors who had tasted blood and sweat in the desert?!
The burly man, seeing Kuki Shinobu holding the frying pan and the purple lightning crackling around him, immediately shouted, "Retreat!!!"
"what?"
The members of the [Red Sand Scorpion] who were lying in ambush all around were slightly taken aback, and then they saw the bottom of the pot and the fist.
"duang!"
"boom--!!"
In less than ten seconds, all members of the [Red Sand Scorpion] were wiped out again, leaving only their leader standing on the field.
"This...this...how come it's you again?"
The leader of the Crimson Sand Scorpions was on the verge of tears; he never expected to run into this group of people again.
He wanted to escape, but he knew he couldn't, because a figure in a black robe was already standing behind him.
Several water spheres were floating around the opponent. His years of experience living on the edge told this boss that these water spheres were very dangerous, and if he were hit by even one of them, he would surely die!
These guys are so strong, they're like monsters. Why did I encounter these monsters both the first and second time I tried to rob someone on the road?
Didn't they leave Huacheng Guo?! I've been wandering around Huacheng Guo all day and haven't seen them at all!
Why did the other party suddenly appear as soon as I started doing my job?! Where were they hiding before?!
The leader of the Crimson Sand Scorpion was quite helpless, even though he was actually quite strong.
But getting their hands on Su Hao and the others is no less daunting than a novice hero in a Western fantasy world running into a demon king the moment they step outside.
"Yes, it's us again."
Su Hao looked at the leader of the Crimson Sand Scorpion, stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and then chuckled, "What a coincidence, how did you manage to get out in such a short time?"
It's quite curious that, despite the different laws in different countries, it's really rare for someone who commits highway robbery to be released in less than seven days.
"Well..." The leader, seeing that he had been caught by a group of people again, said helplessly, "We were first-time offenders and did not harm anyone. After paying tens of thousands of moras and signing a guarantee, we were released."
Upon hearing this, Su Hao did not immediately trust her, but instead looked at Farusan.
The other party is a genuine Sumeru person and should be able to tell whether this is true or false.
Farusian nodded slightly. Indeed, there was such a rule, which determined the person's guilt or punishment based on the crime committed.
Compared to other areas, the probability of crime in the gilded troupe in Sumeru is too high. If there is no murder or robbery, they can be dealt with leniently.
If someone is killed and goods are stolen, that's a different story.
This group of gilded thugs is currently in a very unlucky situation. These mysterious people are quite powerful, and they not only failed to rob the group but also got beaten up.
Now they've even managed to rob this mysterious guy. Farusan shook her head repeatedly, not knowing what to say.
"Sir, please consider that we are destined to meet and let us go."
“We’ve already left a record in Huacheng Guo. If we leave another record, then we, [Red Sand Scorpion], will be forced to disband before we even debut.”
The leader of this gilded brigade immediately knelt down before Su Hao. He had no choice; he had already been caught once, and if he were caught again, he would be finished.
"Would you dare to do this again next time?" Coral Palace Xin Hai said calmly. She and her group would not let these highway robbers get away with it.
But that doesn't stop Coral Palace from asking a question.
"I dare!" the leader said decisively.
"?" Coral Palace Heart Sea tilted her head in confusion, seemingly not expecting that this leader would be so brave.
They've already arrested them, and they still dare to say they'll do it again? Do they have a death wish?
“Because if we don’t do this, we will all starve to death.” The leader glanced at Farusan and said with resentment, “In Sumeru, the scholars are always the ones who are high and mighty, while we desert people are always inferior.”
“Even when we’re doing work, these guys discriminate against us. I used to be a mercenary, protecting my employer just like you guys.”
"But in the end, we were betrayed by our employer, so I swore that I would rather rob someone than be bullied by someone else..."
"duang!"
Before he could finish speaking, Hisaki Shinobu knocked him unconscious with a frying pan. She kicked him and said coldly, "You're bullying the weak."
"You've got a lot of fallacies. If you're being bullied, you bully passing merchants and commoners. Why don't you just kill your employer?!"
Farusan shook her head slightly, a hint of complexity flashing in her eyes, but she didn't say anything.
Because in Sumeru, there are indeed many disputes between the desert people and the tree prince people, and most scholars in the Academy of Teachings are quite prejudiced against those from the desert.
