Armipotent
chapter-1536

Novoa Valentine looked at the assignment list, or to be more exact, she looked at the name on top, Tang Shaoyang. Ever since the incident, she could not forget about the man. Even though she reminded herself not to get closer to the man, she was curious if Tang Shaoyang was really a Spirit Contractor.

In order to confirm his identity, she looked for him for more than a week until she gave in. Once she gave up, he appeared again. Ever since the assignment list was announced, she could not get rid of the thought of this man. Her curiosity overcame her logic, and she still wanted to confirm the man's class despite the risk.

Even at this point, she believed Tang Shaoyang was most like a Spirit Contractor. It was proven by the point, by how much the man gained in the last two weeks. But she wanted to confirm her guest, and if the man was amicable, she wanted to form a connection with Tang Shaoyang.

As she tried to recall the man's face, the crowd buzzed out. She stood from the supply box, thinking the calamity horde had started the attack. However, it was not an attack, but because of one person. The person he had been looking for two weeks ago. The others made a path for the man as the latter headed to the wall.

Novoa focused on the man and quickly noticed something was off. Primal Vampire was sensitive to energy. Novoa could tell that the one in front of her was not the same man she met two weeks ago. The difference was not just a little, but big. So big that she felt like the man was another person in Tang Shaoyang's skin.

'Wait…' She realized it might be possible. Someone disguised as Tang Shaoyang, and the real Tang Shaoyang was not there.

Then she remembered the conflict between him and the Vigamaur Dgaror. Amos was an Administrator from Vigamaur Dgaror, and Tang Shaoyang literally almost wiped out Vigamaur Dgaror's people who joined the trial.

There was a reason for Amos to do something shoddy in the back as Administrator. It was possible that the real Tang Shaoyang was caught by Amos and imprisoned somewhere. Amos sent someone disguised as Tang Shaoyang to come here.

What was that for? It was to disguise Tang Shaoyang's death, so Amos could avoid the accusation. Maybe Tang Shaoyang came from a faction that even Vigamaur Dgaror did not dare to offend. That was why Amos made such a lengthy scheme instead of killing Tang Shaoyang directly. That was what Novoa thought as she believed Tang Shaoyang who came to the wall was not the real Tang Shaoyang.

'It's a pity that I can't confirm or even see how strong this Spirit Contractor is.' She shook her head in regret.

Despite her grandfather's warning, she still believed Amos or the other overseer was stronger than Tang Shaoyang even with the Spirit Contractor Class. Even though she once thought Tang Shaoyang might be stronger than an Administrator, at that time, she was in panic. That was why such a thought crossed her mind. When she could think carefully, she believed Amos was stronger than a Spirit Contractor that just reached God Rank recently.

But again, her curiosity got her as she followed Tang Shaoyang to the wall. When she arrived at the top of the wall, Tang Shaoyang standing with his hand crossed on his chest, looking outside.

Novoa followed the gaze, and she saw nothing. She came over next to the man, "Thank you for your help back then." That was a test if the one next to her was the real Tang Shaoyang.

Tang Shaoyang looked at her, staring at her. For some reason, her heart jumped. Not because she was charmed by him, but because there was an inexplicable feeling. But then she realized it came from her fear, and she could not believe it. There was no reason for her to fear this man, at all. But she felt something dangerous from him, she did not know what was that.

Tang Shaoyang did not say anything and kept looking outside the city. Novoa created the distance from the man after the initial encounter. It was dangerously weird. Even her grandfather could not exude such aura when he was angry.

Novoa went to another section on the wall, standing around thirty meters away from Tang Shaoyang, 'Could it be another Administrator disguised as Tang Shaoyang?' It made sense for an Administrator to have such a trick. Her grandfather said the Administrator was more amicable than the Spirit Contractor, but they were not less dangerous than the Spirit Contractor.

For an hour, she could not get Tang Shaoyang out of her head. She kept thinking about Tang Shaoyang, and the only thing that distracted her from him was the calamity horde. She was more worried about Tang Shaoyang than the city defense. The reason was simple: she knew more about city defense than Tang Shaoyang.

Even if they failed to defend the city, the Administrator would stop the beast from wiping out the participants. That was why there were twelve safe houses, the safe areas for the participants in case the situation got increasingly dangerous.

The ground shook, and the vibration reached the wall. Novoa looked outside and found the horde. Various kinds of calamities, from Rank 3 to Rank 6 Calamity banded together, rushing toward the city. At the back of the horde, she saw the group of colossal calamities.

The colossal calamity was Brawler Ape Calamity. They had spike-like fists and metallic armor on their chest and back. The lowest rank for Brawler Ape Calamity was Rank 7, and it was easy to differentiate them between the ranks.

The Rank 7 Brawler Ape Calamity had two hands, normally. However, the Rank 8 Brawler Ape had two pairs of hands, and the Rank 9 Brawler Ape had four pairs of hands.

Novoa saw a lot of Rank 7 Brawler Ape Calamity, more than thirty of them. There were six Rank 8 Brawler Ape Calamity and one Rank 9 Brawler Ape Calamity. The horde's lineup caught her by surprise. She did not expect to encounter Rank 8 Calamity in the first wave, let alone the Rank 9 Calamity. A Rank 9 Calamity was supposed to be the last boss. That was what he heard from her family, not in the first wave.

The bell resounded in the air as the guard announced the arrival of the first wave. Everyone went up to the wall and the panic spread out as soon as they found the Rank 9 Brawler Ape Calamity in the horde. All kinds of curses resonated from the participants, but then Novoa saw a person dashed into the horde, alone by himself. That was right, she saw Tang Shaoyang flew into the horde. Not the frontline, but flew to the back line of the horde, heading toward the Brawler Ape Calamity group.
