chapter-1548
Castor tapped the metal table with his index fingers which made an annoying noise, his legs moved unceasingly, and he had been looking around the lounge. He had been like that since his butt touched the chair.
"Are you sure Tang Shaoyang accepted our invitation?" He asked the elf that sat across him. His tone showed how worried he was.
"Tch, I kinda regret making a team with you now. Can you at least help me to sort out the people for our team? You are so useless," Agnes just rolled her eyes and kept looking at the names on the lists that were not on the team yet.
"Who cares about that? As long as we have Tang Shaoyang in our team, the remaining two don't really matter anymore. We can just invite the people who are not on the team. They will join us once they see Tang Shaoyang in our team. Instead of worrying about that, we need to ensure the other teams can't snatch our ace!"
That was what Castor worried about. He was afraid that someone intercepted Tang Shaoyang on the way to the lounge and managed to persuade Tang Shaoyang. Tang Shaoyang's name was no longer notorious in this stage, but a free pass to stage 3.Even though he did not know what exactly happened in the city during the city defense. He could tell based on the points that Tang Shaoyang killed at least five Administrators. Not only that, but he also found out about the Spirit Contractor during the city defense and the famous skeleton army.
Having Tang Shaoyang meant he had an army in his team. It was the top priority to secure Tang Shaoyang into the team instead of looking for the other candidates. He had been checking his team screen, making sure Tang Shaoyang's name was on the team while looking around in the big lounge. His eyes glued at the three entrances to the lounge.
His effort was not wasted as he spotted the man he had been looking for since he arrived at the lounge. He stood up and waved his hand at Tang Shaoyang, "We are here, Tang! We are here!"
His words caused the others to look at him. The word Tang was quite sensitive. It was the name that got first place in stage 1 with a gap that was impossible to catch up. The first and the second place had a wide gap.
"Huh!? Can we bring our children to the trial?"
That was a weird question that came from Castor. Agnes could not help but look as well. She was weirded by the fact that Tang Shaoyang brought twins with him. They did not look similar to Tang Shaoyang, but they shared the same trait.
The twins had their demon eyes and also black hair. She could not help to compare the boy and Tang Shaoyang. While they shared similar traits, the boy was clearly a level above Tang Shaoyang in terms of looks. The boy was more good-looking than the father.Tang Shaoyang arrived at the table and nodded at the two. Then he took the seat with the twins.
Castor's eyes kept looking at the twins, but Agnes masked her curiosity better than Castor. She came closer to Tang Shaoyang, "Do you have friends that you want to invite?"
"No! You can invite anyone, your acquaintance or your faction's members," Tang Shaoyang shook his head. It did not really matter to him who the other two members were.
Agnes nodded her head and checked the list once more. The second and the third super ace had not formed or joined a team yet. The three super aces in her mind were first Tang Shaoyang, the second was Ian Carmen Lorentia, and the third ace was Novoa Valentine.
Even though she put Novoa Valentine far below Tang Shaoyang and Ian Carmen Lorentia, she still categorized them as super aces for stage 2. If Tang Shaoyang declined her invitation, she would invite Ian Carmen Lorentia next and Novoa Valentine if Ian also refused her invitation.
"Do you mind if I invite Ian Carmen Lorentia and Novoa Valentine to the team?" Agnes noticed the two other two super aces were not in a team. However, she had to make sure that Tang Shaoyang had no beef with these before inviting them. The most important piece in this team was still Tang Shaoyang.
"You can invite anyone you want. You are the leader, there's no need to ask for my permission," Tang Shaoyang stood up and brought the twins to get food, "I am going to get food."
Castor had not said anything, but his eyes glued on the twins, "Are they really his children? But we can't bring anyone, even our contracted pet into the trial."
The lounge provided food for the participants, and it was free for the first portion. They had to pay for the second portion and so on. There was a variety of foods and drinks, but the twins' eyes were glued on the stand with the beast steak. The stand prepared five different types of meat, but the twins focused on Blazing Bull steak. It was a bull-like beast, but their skin was made of fire. But he had to admit that the marbles on the meat were too tempting.
Tang Shaoyang ordered twenty-one servings. Twenty for the twins, and one for him. While waiting for his order, he heard a familiar voice.
"You can just tell them your table number, and they will bring your order to your table."
Tang Shaoyang turned toward the voice. It was Ira the first Admin Helper he met in the trial.
"You are alive? I thought you were one of the Admin Helpers that died during the battle."
Ira's mouth twitched slightly at the first thing that came out from Tang Shaoyang's mouth, "Yeah, thanks to you I only got half from the bet. Half of them died so they can't pay the bet."
Tang Shaoyang just shrugged at her and gave the number of his table to the attendant.
"The God Order will not stay still after you killed their seven Administrators. While they might not be able to do anything in stage 2, I am sure they have a plan for you in stage 3. This is the payment for winning me the bet."
