Chapter 721 - World Congress - Part 1

It had been twenty-eight days since Earth had entered Stage-2 of the Game, and within a month and two days, Earth Dimensional Tower would appear on Earth. However, no one realized there would be a World Congress before the tower appeared.

The Tang Empire Smart Base

Zhang Mengyao closed her eyes, leaning back on her chair in the office. The sound of tapping sound against the table resounded in the room as she tapped her index finger on the table. She copied that habit from her man, Tang Shaoyang.

After a while, someone knocked on the office door. She was waiting for this knock as her eyes shot open and replied. "Come in!"

Lu An entered the office with a dejected look. "Negative. The Dimensional Gate is still off." After saying that, he closed the door and left the room. Lu An did this every morning, reporting the Dimensional Gate's condition to Zhang Mengyao every morning. They were waiting for the same person to return.

[There's no need for you to be worried, Lady Zhang Mengyao. The Tang Empire's leadership is still under the name of my Master, which means he is still alive.] Origin, the Smart AI who managed the smart base and important territories of the Tang Empire spoke.

"That's not the issue." Zhang Mengyao shook her head while looking at the invitation from the System. There was an open transparent screen in front of her, and it was an invitation for the faction with a territory. The Tang Empire had conquered one-third of China and was invited to World Congress as a major faction, or VIP in short. However, their leader was not here right now.

Zhang Mengyao did not know what this World Congress was about. She was afraid of making the decision, especially if it was essential. Since Tang Shaoyang was not here, it was her to make the decision. However, she was still traumatized to make a decision. She did not want the same thing when they faced the first zombie horde to happen.

[You have his trust, and I believe he will support your decision regardless of the issue.] Origin tried to boost Zhang Mengyao's confidence. [Aren't you doing well in managing the territory and the people even though he is not here? You can do this, Lady Zhang Mengyao.]

"It's not like I have any other choices." Zhang Mengyao let out a sigh and scanned the invitation once again. The invitation said that she could bring up to thirty people to the World Congress. She had to choose the people for the congress, but the invitation did not tell her what they would talk about in the congress. The System would tell them when they arrived at the World Congress later.

"I don't think I will bring thirty people with me." Zhang Mengyao muttered in a low voice as she thought of several names in her head. She needed to fill the blank space on the letter, the names that would participate in the World Congress because today was the last day for The Tang Empire to submit the names.

The first name that came into her mind was Wei Xi, Vice-Supreme General of the Tang Empire. The second name was Kang Xue, the head of the Healer Division. The third name would be Cao Jingyi, Marshal of the Tang Empire. The fourth name was Li Shuang. She was one of Tang Shaoyang's women, and she was the one who helped her manage the city.

The fifth name was Kang Jiayi, the Tang Empire Internal Security Division Director. The sixth and the seventh names were Lu An and Yu Shun. Since the World Congress was a place where the other factions gathered, it was a good place to show off what they got. Also, it was for their security too. Yu Shun and Lu An easily entered the top ten strongest in the Tang Empire.

"The last person should be Li Na… Ah, Liang Suyin as well." She almost forgot the Tang Empire's fire witch on the list. "I don't think we need that many people since we will not do any action or any diplomatic relationship with the other factions. I need his approval for the diplomatic relationship, and it's not like we need to form a diplomatic relationship as well. We have everything here."

After submitting the name, she informed all the people on the list about their departure in two days through the Tang Empire's Communication System. She sent them a message one by one, all the replies were quite fast, and every one replied positively, but one person, Li Shuang.

"What is she doing? Is she busy? No, no matter how busy she is, she should spare her time to reply to my message." After Zhang Mengyao finished her words, the knock on her door rang. The person behind the door did not wait for her reply and immediately opened the door after the knock.

Li Shuang entered the door with her working suit and tied her hair into a ponytail. The mature beauty had regained her confidence after the apocalypse and had become a great help to the Tang Empire to establish a proper and working city.

Zhang Mengyao even established the City Management Division for Li Shuang to have a proper workplace. She recruited a lot of people, and thanks to this division, they ran the city in order.

"I have several names in my head, and I think we should bring them. They are good at negotiation and more stuff." Li Shuang voiced her thoughts as soon as she entered the office. She did not bother with greeting since they were close.

"No, we don't need them, but just you. It's not like we can make any decision without him. So we don't need your people in this congress. Also, we don't know what we will talk about in the congress since the invitation does not mention the topic." Zhang Mengyao shared the invitation with Li Shuang.

"Hmmm. We indeed don't know anything since the System does not mention anything about the topic. Let's bring people that are good in combat instead of our security. After all, we don't know what will happen at the World Congress. The System does not even tell us about the rule, so the fight will likely happen if there's no rule." Li Shuang voiced her thoughts.

"We have the strongest team already, so you don't need to worry."
