Armipotent

Tang Shaoyang watched the group depart from the foggy mountain. He had his Spirit Eyes watch the group until the group left the range of the Spirit Eyes. He was now alone in the mountain. Even though he said he would go alone, he did not know where to start with this solo adventure.

"Do you know something about Dimensional Tower, Karoen? Maybe you can give me a hint where to start looking for the boss floor."

[I do have a little bit of knowledge and know a little bit of the dimensional tower's pattern. Unfortunately, I don't think the System will allow you to cheat.]

Tang Shaoyang blinked his eyes, looking around the mountain. The fog slowly dissipated as Hulgem took the tool that released the fog with him. He looked around, then let out a sigh, "Does that mean I have to pick a random direction and go for it?"

He did not really have any clue about his next plan. The initial plan was to get information from the Adventurer Guild, like how to find the boss floor. But the plan went to the south, and his relationship with the Starter City #5 soured. The people in that city might go for his head if he returned there, not that he was afraid of them. It was just a pointless fight.

"Should I kidnap them and ask them how to find the boss floor? Those people should know something about the dimensional tower since this is not their faction's first time. They must have thorough knowledge…." Tang Shaoyang considered kidnapping the important figures from the city and interrogated them for information. That was the most doable plan for him.

[What about taking the Myth Rank Trial first before thinking of your next move? That's quite important for you, no?] Karoen's voice rang in his head.

"Huh!?" Tang Shaoyang was confused at first. He just took the Trial of Ancient at level 3000. He thought it would be another two thousand levels for his next trial. Opening the window status, he saw the exclamation mark next to his rank. Tapping the exclamation mark gave him the notification.

[Do you want to take Trial of The Myth? Yes/No?]

A smile formed on his lips as the first step to fight the God Rank became closer. He thought it would take him years for him to reach Legend Rank. However, this was a good indication that he might not take that long to reach Legend Rank.

Legend Rank was the minimum rank for him to take on the God Rank, or at least, he needed to reach Primordial Rank if he really wanted to protect his empire from the God Rank. With this development, it gave him a clue that the next rank advancement would be at level 5000, worst it would be at level 6000. He was not that far from the Primordial Rank.

Tang Shaoyang rarely opened the window status even though he heard the notification that he leveled up. He could barely feel the difference between one-star Strength and five-star Strength. So he had been hoarding the Attribute Points and distributed them all in one go. That way he could feel the growth in his attributes rather than distributing them each time he leveled up. That was why he did not notice the exclamation mark. On top of that, he had been busy with the Mistovel Family's God Ranks. That might be the reason he did not notice the notification.

"I guess I will take the trial first." Tang Shaoyang returned to the cave, choosing one of the abandoned houses, and entered. Inside the house, he chose yes and his body was sucked into the portal.

Starter City #4

Zhang Mengyao was accompanied by Marshal Alton and Legion Commander Moonsong. The three had made a name for themselves, the leading figure who fought the Divine Church. The three showed up on the street and attracted the people's attention.

They headed toward the Administrative Building under the Prime Minister of Allurion's invitation. The leader of Allurion invited Zhang Mengyao to a meeting. Zhang Mengyao was curious about what the federation wanted from her, from the empire. The leading faction in the alliance who rejected the Tang Empire to be part of the Alliance was now inviting her.

"I don't feel good about this meeting. Especially after His Majesty was no longer with us," Marshal Alton did not feel good about the invitation. Especially when they were "leaderless". He might not be an expert in political stuff, but his instinct told him that the federation was up to something that was not good.

"Does not matter. I just want to know the Federation of Allurion's stance in our war. We can find out in this meeting so we can prepare for the worst," Zhang Mengyao was at ease, not worried in the slightest about the meeting. The federation could not do anything to them inside the Starter City, after all, "Also, we need to welcome the Tang Empire's new people. Might as well meet them, we have nothing to lose."

The three soon arrived at the Administrative Building, and the federation's force guarded the building tightly. Marshal Alton could not use his Detection skill, but he could tell based on the aura that these guards were at Primordial Rank and mostly Myth Rank. It was the Prime Minister's way to show off their power, but Alton was not intimidated by these people in the slightest.

The guards did not block them as they passed them and entered the building. Inside, Redvers Scovel was already waiting with his secretary and two strongest guards. The Prime Minister enjoyed his drink and stood up when the guest arrived. The wolf beastmen greeted Zhang Mengyao with a smile, offering his hand for a handshake.

"I am grateful that you are accepting my invitation in your busy time, Lady Zhang."

Zhang Mengyao nodded and reached his hand. To her surprise, Redvers Scovel leaned forward and was about to kiss her back on the hand. She pulled her hand off the wolf beastmen's grip and furrowed her brow, "I am sorry, but we don't do. It will be considered rude to do that in our tradition."

Redvers Scovel froze for a moment, but then he forced a smile when he heard the explanation. "I apologize for not considering the cultural difference between our worlds."

They got to the table, and the first greeting made Zhang Mengyao uncomfortable, so she was not going to stay there longer. As soon as they sat on the chair, she opened her mouth, "I will be blunt, Sir Redvers. I am currently busy with the war against the Divine Church, so I would like you to be direct, Sir Redvers. What do you want to talk about with the Tang Empire?"

'Savage is still a savage, don't know the proper behavior of a noble.' The Prime Minister saved those words for himself, maintaining his smile while nodding. "Then I will be direct and get to the main topic."

"I know you are grieving and want to continue the war with the Divine Church to avenge your emperor, but I don't think that's a good idea. You are just destroying the legacy he left behind by fighting the Divine Church…."

Zhang Mengyao narrowed her eyes, and her expression turned colder, "It seems I am not clear enough, Sir Redvers. What do you want?"

Redvers Scovel was displeased that Zhang Mengyao interrupted him, but he remained patient, "I want you, no, the Tang Empire to submit to the Federation of Allurion, and I will help you with your vengeance. I will help you to destroy the Divine Church."
