Chapter 79: A village up in the trees
"Unknown young, thanks for helping me. My name is Robbs, what kind of questions do you have?" The young man introduced himself with a grateful tone.
The dirt on his body made it difficult to know his true appearance.
If Liu Yang had ignored him like the others, he would have been dead.
"I would like to know if you have seen this person?" Liu Yang showed a picture of Fei Lin's brother.
The image in the photo was of a young man in his mid-twenties, he looked ordinary and casual.
"I've never seen this person before. But some people might know, if you want, I can take you to some people who might know about the person you're looking for. They're like the lookouts who look over the whole swamp area, but you have to pay a price for their information" Robbs recommended.
"I see… Is the location close to here?" Liu Yang became interested in this group.
If they have the information he wants, it makes things a lot easier for him.
"It's a little deep in the swamp, but it's up a big tree. The place is like a village up in the trees. Follow me. I will show the way"
The two walked through the wet and muddy swamp terrain, sometimes some creatures made of mud jump by surprise and attack the duo, Liu Yang just casually swung his sword and cut the creatures.
Unfortunately, these things were harder to defeat because of the mud bodies.
It took at least three or four slashes to defeat the mud creatures because it was necessary to find their core to destroy this thing.
All sorts of strange animals were seen in the swamp, but many were easy to deal with using just the sword.
At least for Liu Yang, he made it look very easy, but it wasn't easy to deal with these creatures.
The strength he had was far superior to the others. Also, ninety percent of the points received up to level 50 were put into the Strength attribute and added to the others because of the heart effects.
That was an insane amount of points.
Liu Yang also had the passive power that his body received. So he was much stronger than anyone on the same level as him.
Robbs was surprised by Liu Yang's show of strength. He had never seen a person easily defeating creatures.
Using only ordinary physical attacks was a rare thing to see.
…
The walk lasted about an hour before they reached the village built on top of the trees.
The place was really a small village built on top of tall trees with thick trunks to support the weight of the buildings made with branches.
Many people were walking along the small wooden planks and bridges erected to link each of the houses.
"Liu Yang, we have arrived. The house that sells information is the one over there." Robbs pointed to a small cabin at the top of one of the trees, but there weren't many people in line.
"I appreciate the help" He thanked him.
"I should be thanking you, if it wasn't for your help, I'd be dead. This is just a thank you."
Liu Yan climbed the tree using a rope and Robbs went to another hut.
…
"Next" A voice echoed from inside the cabin.
Only one person could enter at a time.
Upon entering, Liu Yang saw a woman wearing black cloth clothes like a magician, but her face was covered by a veil of the same color. She looked like some kind of sorceress.
Her appearance was difficult to describe because her body was covered by her clothes, but her chest area was swollen as if there were two air balloons and her long green hair down to her back.
Couldn't tell if she was an otherworldly beauty or an ordinary beauty.
"What kind of information do you want?" The woman looked at Liu Yang with narrowed eyes. She knew who he was.
As someone who takes care of information gathering, she knew about things that happened in the town.
"I would like to know if you know anything about this person." Liu Yang ignored her gaze and showed the picture of Fei Lin's older brother.
"Aaron Lin. What do you want to know about him?"
"I want to know all the information you have about him"
"The price for the information is five hundred Credits"
The value was not low because it was enough for a family to live for a month or two, but for adventurers, this was not much because they were always risking their lives to find treasures.
Liu Yang swiped the card without hesitation.
Value was nothing to him.
