Chapter 598 Internal Conflic (2/2)
Li Du smiled. ”There's no problem. Let's head back and rest while we await tomorrow's huge battle.”
From that day onwards, the number of treasure hunters coming to Las Vegas increased.
With 145 storage units being put up for auction and what's more, in a valuable place like the casino, it naturally attracted a lot of treasure hunters. Exaggerating a little, it was most likely that every treasure hunter on the entire west coast had gotten the news.
Treasure hunters from Flagstaff reached Las Vegas one after another. They did not stay at Caesars Palace. Instead, they stayed at the usual motel that treasure hunters go to.
During the evening, Li Du went to join them.
The auction would inevitably attract treasure hunters from different places such as Arizona, California, Nevada, Colorado and even New Mexico, Texas and others.
Under such circumstances, forming alliances between treasure hunters was necessary as they needed each other's help.
The motel that Olly, Dickens and the others were staying at was owned by people from Arizona. It goes without saying that all treasure hunters from Arizona stayed there.
Li Du entered the motel with Hans, who had just woken up, and was greeted by a bald, burly man. He walked towards them and said, ”Hey, Boss Fox. Good day.”
Hans smiled. ”Oh oh, Steel Warrior Kheiron, long time no see, mate. I heard you went on a vacation in Texas. Why did you come back?”
The burly man shook his head. ”People in Texas are really not to be trifled with. I almost didn't make it back alive. However, with God's blessing, we are still able to meet each other after all things considered.”
He stopped, looked at Li Du and said, ”This is Boss Li? I have already heard a lot of rumors about him since I came back. He's a ruthless person, right?”
Li Du grinned and replied, ”They are just false rumors, that's all.”
”Haha, you are too humble. Nonetheless, there's a good show inside that you guys would enjoy.” The burly man patted him and Hans on their shoulders and walked out the door.
After he had left, Hans immediately swept his shoulder in disgust and angrily said, ”F*ck, this bastard's here too? Unlucky!”
Li Du curiously asked, ”Who is he?”
Hans replied, ”Kheiron Flamingo, a self-proclaimed Steel Warrior and a buff looking sissy. He will definitely find you later. You have to be careful when dealing with him. He's very crafty.”
They continued walking forward and noticed the ”good show” Kheiron told them about.
Olly, Big Beard Carl and the others were at the motel's escalator, having a standoff with a group of people. From the looks of it, the group was blocking them from going up the escalator.
Seeing this, Li Du asked, ”What are you guys doing?”
Turis and the others were pleasantly surprised when they saw him. One after another, they greeted him.
”Hey, Boss Li. You came?”
”Boss Li, having a good time in Las Vegas? Did you go to the casino to show off your skills?”
”Guys, I brought some gifts for all of you. Come to my room later.”
The group of people at the top of the escalator looked fearful after noticing Li Du and Hans. Some of them lowered their heads and were intending to leave, but were shoved back by the people behind. A bulky man said, ”We are an alliance!”
Li Du, who was clueless about their intentions, inquired, ”What exactly is going on here?”
Felix sneered. ”What else? Some people are looking down on us treasure hunters who came from a small place like Flagstaff. They do not wish to stay under the same roof as us.”
With an odd expression, Li Du looked towards the people on the second floor and asked, ”Are all of you also treasure hunters from Arizona?”
Although they did not reply, they continued blocking the escalator.
