Scene change____

Meanwhile, somewhere in the city, watching the rain, a person sitting on a throne had a pissed look. The man looked very angry and displeased. He tightly clenched his fists in anger as he stared at the sky. This man was none other than the ruler of the Savannahclaw City. He was the ruler of his beast tribe. Being the ruler of his beast tribe meant that he was also the ruler of the Savannahclaw city. "Find out who is responsible for this" The man sitting on the throne, angrily ordered his subordinates. "But Sire, please understand that finding the person who is responsible for the rain would be impossible. And in this large city, where more than 1 million people lived finding a single individual is like searching for a needle in a haystack." One of the subordinates, who was kneeling in front of the man, replied with his head lowered. They felt that their leader was making unreasonable requests. How they could ever hope to find a person whom they have no clue about? They didn't even know a single about this person. If they had some kind of clue about who this person was then they could have started a search. Also, they felt that if a person is powerful enough to make rain, then this person might be an extraordinary cultivator. And messing with such a figure is never a wise option. Messing with the wrong person would lead to their eventual downfall. "I don't want to hear any excuses. do whatever you need to do. Find me the person who is responsible for this." The reason the man sitting on the throne was so angry, was because this rain was severely going to affect their business. The people will be storing the rainwater for future purposes. If there is no need for fresh water, then how can they sell water to the people? They were going to make a big loss. This is the reason why the man sitting on the throne was fuming with anger. Unlike other cities, which were surrounded by tall walls, to protect the city from invaders and armies, this city didn't have any walls protecting it. This city didn't have any armies, or any soldiers, to maintain the law and protect the order of the city. Anyone could freely enter and exit the city as a result of this. This also meant that criminals and people with bad intentions could freely enter the city without ever needing to change their identities or needing any disguises. The city was under the control of a certain beast folk tribe. The tribe that controlled the city wasn't that large in number. So it wasn't possible for them to protect this entire city alone and also maintain order at the same time. Due to this reason, there were a lot of crimes and criminal activities going on around the city, since there was no one to maintain the law and protect the order. The beast tribe that controlled this city and the territories around also controlled the water supply, which was the most important resource in this continent. The entire oasis water supply was also under their control. The people had to pay money to get access to this water. The beast tribe that controlled the city didn't really care about the criminal activities going around the city as long as they received their taxes in time. -

Once they found an inn to stay in, Aditya immediately got to work. He found a table to use for his work. Around a few hours later, Aditya was done. The rain lasted for a few hours. Once Aditya was done, making an artifact that was going to help in keeping the temperature down, he went outside, leaving the girls alone. As he walked on the streets of the city, he noticed the large tower that was located in the middle of the city. The tower was massive, and just like all other buildings and infrastructure of the city the tower was also built using locally found stones.

The tower was the place where the Ruler of this city lived. At least, that's what Aditya had heard from the people of this city. He had spoken to a few people whom he met on the street. Since he had changed his looks completely. He looked no different from an ordinary man. Thanks to this he easily managed to blend into the crowd and walk around the city without attracting any attention to him. However, this was different with the girls. The girls were so beautiful that even though they were in disguise, they still attracted a lot of attention from the crowd, especially from the men. This is the reason why Aditya left them at the inn while he came to look for a nice desert ship to purchase for their journey. 'Although we could continue our journey by flying, that would take away the fun of this journey. Also, not all of us could fly. For example, Julia, Alicia, and Lara cannot fly.' Aditya was going to buy a desert ship. Desert ships were just like ordinary ships. But thanks to the special build and mechanism of these ships, these ships could run on sand. These ships are powered by Mana stones. The speed of a normal desert ship isn't that fast when comparing the ship's speed to the 2nd-order or above-order cultivators. 'But if I add some modifications and change the weight of the ship using runes then I am confident that I can make a ship that is far faster than normal ships.' Since Aditya has never tried anything like this, he was kind of excited to test his theory out. As Aditya was walking on the street, he suddenly noticed a line of crowd. The line itself was more than a few thousand meters long. All the people standing in the line looked distressed and some of them even looked very sick and tired. 'There are more than 4,000 people standing in the line. But why?' Aditya could see that all the people were waiting in lines to get inside the tent.

In front of the tent, there were two guards wearing full body armor and holding gold spears in their arms. Both guards looked very imposing. 'They are Peak 4th-order cultivators and inside the tent, I can sense a Beginner 4th-order cultivator along with a few other presences. But those presences are really weak this means that they are normal people.' Seeing a girl with two orange foxtails running, Aditya stopped a 15-year-old-looking girl and asked. "Hey!!! Do you know what happened here?" Aditya curiously. The girl stopped and looked at Aditya. Seeing that the man stopped was ordinary looking, she became disappointed. But she didn't show it on her face. Her job was to show tourists around the whole City and around this region. This is how she survived in this city. "I can answer your question if you pay me one copper coin." The girl said with a smile. She wasn't expecting Aditya to pay her one copper coin just for an answer. But she widened her eyes when she saw a gold coin being tossed at her. She hurriedly grabbed the gold coin and carefully put it in her pouch that was hanging on her waist before she cautiously looked around to make sure that no one saw her taking the gold coin. Otherwise, she feared that if someone were to see her with a gold coin, then she might get robbed and violently beaten. "I gave you one gold coin. Now you will need to answer all of my questions." Aditya crossed his arms around his chest and said in an authoritative. 100 copper coins equal to one silver coin. And 100 silver coins equal to one gold coin. "Alright." Knowing that the person whom she thought to be an ordinary person was a big shot, the girl became even more respectful. Her posture also became more straight. "Why so many people are standing in lines here?" Aditya asked the most obvious question. "Mister, are you by any chance new to this city?" Hearing this, Aditya nodded his head. "That's why you don't know. The thing is, around a few weeks back people of this city started getting affected by a serious curse. Although the cultivators of this City were somewhat immune to this curse, the normal folks were completely defenseless to this curse. At first, it was only the people that lived here that were affected by this curse. But around a week ago, even the travelers that came to this city from other places also started getting affected by this curse." ----------------
