"You're talking about the tattoo of the black scorpion?" Sei Itō frowned.
"That's right." Arthur nodded in confirmation and continued to explain, "Maybe you didn't notice, but Belsac also has such a tattoo."
"Belsac? The arsonist? "Sei Itō asked in confusion.
"That's right." Hearing Sei Itō's question, Arthur nodded in confirmation as he remembered that Sei Itō didn't know his name. He then brought the topic back to the topic and explained, "That's the unique symbol of another mercenary group, the Fire Scorpion. The Fire Scorpion mercenary group is currently employed by the Black Rose as the target of this mission. "
"What does this have to do with me?" Sei Itō asked again.
"The Fire Scorpion, just like its name, every member is like a black scorpion in the desert. They're aggressive and venomous, and they're vengeful." After treating her wounds, Rebecca looked up at Sei Itō and said, "And you just killed two of their members."
"Also, the Fire Scorpion mercenary group has two special ability users. One of them is the [Hound] who can smell the special energy in the air to track, and the other is the [Shadow] who can use his innate senses to determine the general direction and location of the person or thing he's tracking," Arthur continued. "And most importantly, Belsac is the younger brother of the leader of the Fire Scorpion mercenary group, [Poison Scorpion] Belsac."
Hearing the two's explanation, Sei Itō finally frowned.
"Tell me about the Fire Scorpion mercenary group," Sei Itō said after a while.
"Okay." Arthur and Rebecca looked at each other. "The Fire Scorpion mercenary group is similar to the Black Rose. They're one of the special mercenary groups. They're made up of eleven members with different abilities. Apart from [Steel Guy] Charlie and [Arsonist] Belsard, there's also [Hound] Garcia, [Shadow Follower] Arabella, [Poison Scorpion] Belsard, [Transvestite] Dewey, [Digital Command] Dunlop, [Red Rose] Elsie, [Herculean] Marz, [Fast Gunner] Schpunk, and [Deadly Lover] Layton. "
Arthur paused for a moment and asked Sei Itō to memorize the names before continuing with the introduction.
"Leader [Poison Scorpion], a B-class Pinnacle Mutated Poison Fire Paranormal. The flames he emits are similar to magma. Moreover, it's full of poison, so you have to pay attention to the changes in the air at all times during battle. "
"[Shapeshifter] Dewey, a C-level shapeshifting paranormal. He can transform into any substance with a mass no greater than his body weight that he has come in contact with. However, under normal circumstances, he would disguise himself as someone else to obtain all kinds of information. That's how I got the title [Transvestite]. "
"[Digital Command] Dunlop, a C-level Electromagnetic Manipulation Paranormal. He can control all kinds of electrical appliances and electronic tools with his mind. He can also manipulate humans to a certain extent."
"[Red Rose] Elsie, a C-level Perfume Manipulation Paranormal. She can affect humans' senses, create hallucinations, and influence their actions by controlling their fragrance. Her special feature is that she always carries an unusually fragrant red rose with her. "
"[Herculean] Marz, a D-level Physical Manipulation Paranormal. He can control his body to unleash a force ten times greater than a human's. It's said that he once used his arms to pull a small cruiser somewhere. I don't know if it's true or not. Oh, right. He's a skinny guy. He's very, very skinny, and very heavy. "Arthur reminded.
"[Fast Gunner] Schpunk. He's not a paranormal like Rebecca, but he's good at shooting. Even a C-level Paranormal can get hurt or killed if they're not careful." Arthur looked at Rebecca who was sitting on the sofa and introduced.
Ito Sei also looked at Rebecca. He remembered that she had used a high-end gun-fu technique, gun-fighting.
"Finally, [Deadly Lover] Layton, a D-level Poison Paranormal. She's female and very sexy." Arthur chuckled and introduced. "She can control her body to secrete all kinds of toxins, including some that can make people fall in love with her immediately after smelling it, but die silently after ten minutes."
"That's all about the Fire Scorpion Mercenaries." Arthur concluded.
Sei Itō carefully memorized this information in his mind. He then looked up and asked Arthur curiously, "What's with those titles?"
"You don't know?" Arthur looked at Sei Itō strangely.
"Yes." Sei Itō nodded and admitted.
"That's right. You're an Asian. Other than Russia and India, the other countries don't have an official organization." When he saw the color of Sei Itō's hair, Arthur said in realization, "It's like this. In Europe and America, other than the official organizations, there are also organizations like the Bounty Union that provide missions for people like us. These titles are the nicknames you registered in the Bounty Union, or the titles the Bounty Union gave you based on your mission records."
"Bounty Union? Looks like it's another organization with deep roots. " Sei Itō thought to himself. He then asked, "But won't our personal abilities be exposed from our titles?"
"Although there's such a drawback, you won't think that way when you know the benefits of getting a title." Arthur smiled and said, "Titles are also divided into levels. Just like supernatural abilities, they're divided into seven levels: S, A, B, C, D, E, and F. Among them, E and F are the lowest. Other than having an advantage in choosing missions, they basically have no other use. However, it was different after reaching D rank. Starting from D rank, not only would the title give you more advantages in choosing missions, but it would also grant you the right to purchase certain resources within the Union. For example, some special items that were only available to the various major powers would also be available within the Union. The higher the title, the better the items you could purchase, and the greater the discount you would receive. Especially after reaching B level, you can spend a certain amount of points to mobilize the union's resources to serve you. You have to know that the union's influence is spread all over Europe, America, and Africa. It's easy to imagine how powerful it is. "
"What are points?" Sei Itō asked again.
"Every time you accept a mission, according to the satisfaction of the employer, a certain amount of points will be given to the person who accepts the mission. Once you accumulate enough points, you can exchange them for another kind of authority in the union and purchase supplies in the union. Of course, if you have a skill, you can also accept some special missions in the union to earn a lot of points. "Arthur explained.
"This Bounty Union's organizational structure is quite strict." Sei Itō thought. Then he looked at Arthur and Rebecca and asked curiously, "Do you two have titles? What are they? "
"Yes, my title is [Romantic Swordsman], and Rebecca's is [Gunpowder]." Arthur said proudly.
"…" Hearing Arthur's title, Sei Itō was stunned speechless. At the same time, he thought to himself, "How shameless."
"Alright, we've stayed here for a while. We should go back and find the leader." Arthur put away the expression on his face and said. But when he spoke, he kept looking at Sei Itō, as if he was waiting for Sei Itō to ask to go with them.
After all, whether it was the short hostility in Japan or the observation just now, Sei Itō was definitely very strong. If they could bring him back to the headquarters, even if they couldn't convince Sei Itō to join the team, it would be a good thing for him to help out since they were both enemies of Fire Scorpion.
After all, with the help of an additional expert, the strength of their side would increase by a bit. At the same time, their safety would be increased by a bit, and the sacrifices during the mission would be reduced by a bit.
"Okay, goodbye." Sei Itō ignored the expectation in Arthur's eyes and nodded.
A look of regret flashed across Arthur's face when he heard that. He then called Rebecca to walk out of the building.
At this moment, Sei Itō suddenly called out, "Oh right."
Hearing Sei Itō's voice, Arthur's face lit up with joy. He quickly turned to look at Sei Itō and asked, "What is it?"
"Can you tell me the address of the Bounty Union in France?" Sei Itō asked.
"Okay." Arthur's disappointed expression disappeared in a flash. He nodded and walked back to the table. He took a piece of paper and a pen and wrote in English. After a while, he tossed the pen aside and handed the paper to Sei Itō. "This is the address of the Bounty Union."
"Thanks." Sei Itō took the paper and thanked him.
"Bye ~" Then the two waved at Sei Itō and turned to leave the room, disappearing completely in a short while.
"Fire Scorpion, huh … I was going to stay in the main world for a while and see the customs of various countries before entering the Dimensional World to collect items. But since that's the case, I'll enter the Dimensional World now." After the two disappeared, Sei Itō turned and walked out of the room. He went to the room on the top floor of the abandoned factory and flashed into the Rubik's Cube world.
"Rubik's Cube, send me to this world." Standing in the void, Sei Itō used his mind to transmit a world that was more suitable for him to the Rubik's Cube.
[Search begins …] After receiving the information provided by Sei Itō, the Rubik's Cube immediately sent out a probe. At the cost of a certain amount of world power, it searched all the Dimensional Worlds in order to find the world that Sei Itō wanted.
[Search complete.] Soon, the Rubik's Cube's information was sent back to Sei Itō's mind.
[Transmission begins.]
As the Rubik's Cube's description disappeared, the pitch-black void suddenly cracked open. A huge vortex suddenly appeared in the void and pulled Sei Itō, who was suspended below it, toward the center of the vortex.
Almost in the next moment, Sei Itō's figure suddenly turned into a seven-colored stream of light and disappeared into the center of the vortex.
