Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 907

Chapter 907: Chapter 703: Protection from the Shadows (Part 2)

Xue Yinzhou noticed her interest and asked, "Want to take a look around?"

Shen Tang shook her head, "I’ve seen all sorts of good things. There’s nothing to see here. We should leave the city as soon as possible."

Leaving through the East Gate would allow us to hit the road directly.

Xue Yinzhou glanced at a nearby inn and pulled her over, "No rush, your health is more important. Let’s find a place to eat something and rest for a bit."

Shen Tang originally wanted to say she wasn’t hungry, but she was still dragged to have a meal, filling her stomach a little.

Honestly, after days of roughing it outside, eating dry rations, and resting poorly, having a hot meal was incredibly comforting!

However, trouble found them right after they finished eating.

A tall, scarred-faced beastman, clearly a local thug, blocked the inn’s entrance with seven or eight rough-looking lackeys behind him.

The leading beastman had a hooked nose and sinister eyes, exuding arrogance.

"New around here?" The hooked nose scrutinized Shen Tang and Xue Yinzhou, lingering a few more seconds on Shen Tang’s face.

Despite her disguise, her delicate features and slightly softer figure, compared to other males, still made her stand out.

The hooked nose’s gaze changed, flashing with greed. He then unleashed a Primordial Beast Tier aura, brazenly proclaiming, "Don’t you know the rules? You’ve entered the territory of our ’Grey Falcon Gang,’ you have to pay a protection fee!"

He stared at them wickedly, "Looking at your smooth skin, pay for three months at once, and we’ll ensure your safety!"

The surrounding local beastmen and diners quickly avoided them, their eyes indifferent or gleeful at the misfortune, no one dared to intervene.

The "Grey Falcon Gang" is a local tyrant, specializing in preying on newcomers and passing merchants, extorting a hefty toll and causing numerous deaths.

Of course, deaths here were commonplace, and no one cared.

The two newcomers were truly unfortunate, running into the notorious Grey Falcon Gang as soon as they entered the city, it seemed dire!

Shen Tang furrowed her brow, trying to negotiate, "Brother, we paid the entry toll when we entered the city. We’re just passing through doing a little business, and we’ll be leaving soon."

"The toll is for the City Guard, the protection fee is for us brothers!"

A rodent-like beastman next to him jeered, "Less talk, either pay up, or... hehe, leave yourself here to settle the debt too!"
