Armipotent
chapter-1620

Half an hour after the meeting with Tang Shaoyang, Herman was ready for the dungeon. He was wearing his white armor, a cape with the emblem of The United Sovereign. Their emblem was one big golden star, surrounded by eight smaller stars. The big golden star was The First Order Guild, and the eight smaller stars were the eight factions that founded The United Sovereign.

"I can't really trust this Emperor. What if he pulls a little trick and stabs us in the back, Your Highness? What if he planned to assassinate all of us inside the dungeon and then take over our land? We must have someone watching him inside, and I will volunteer to take the task!"

Chief Mason voiced his concern. His voice garnered support from the other four officers.

"I have told our people to put more guards at the teleportation gate. In case the Tang Empire invades us!"

Herman let out a sigh. Mason was one of few who had not witnessed how scary the Tang Empire was. It was not like he could blame him for that because he was the same before he met Tang Shaoyang.

"If The Tang Empire wants to take over our land, there's no need for them to wait until now, Mason. Put your focus on the dungeon and don't do anything unnecessary. I also don't want you to bring up this topic again in front of Emperor Tang Shaoyang!"

Mason did not pursue the matter anymore because the gate to the dungeon was in sight. Even though he did not obtain the approval, Chief Mason had his own plan. He would position himself near Tang Shaoyang.

Tang Shaoyang sensed their arrival as he stood in front of the dungeon. The gate to the dungeon was similar to the portal gate. But there was information above the portal for the dungeon. He could see a display above the portal, [Demi-God Dungeon] in red.

If he got closer, there would be other information, telling him the requirement for the dungeon.

Herman exchanged a formal greeting with Viona and Zhang Mengyao, then he stood next to Tang Shaoyang. It was a lie if he was not nervous, but he was less nervous because of the person next to him. He put full trust in Tang Shaoyang that they would be able to clear the dungeon regardless of the monster inside.

"Let's enter the dungeon, Sir Tang Shaoyang." Herman took the first step into the dungeon gate.

Tang Shaoyang nodded and stepped into the dungeon. Viona and Zhang Mengyao followed after him before the remaining officers from The United Sovereign followed as well.

Tang Shaoyang looked around as he entered the dungeon. They did not get separated from the team, and they were in the middle forest.

The first thing he did was to check the area with his [Chaos Eyes]. He found many beasts and monsters, ranging from Epic Rank to Myth Rank. Nothing sort of dangerous. Then he noticed the green display above, and he looked up.

[Safe Zone (07:59:51)]

The time was ticking down, meaning the safe zone only lasted for eight hours. After scouting the surroundings, he then checked the display in front of him. It appeared in front of him as soon as he arrived in this forest.

————————————

[1st floor Demi-God Dungeon]

Quest: Survive for seven days or kill all monsters on this floor to advance to the next floor.

————————————

Looking at the mission, Tang Shaoyang got closer to Zhang Mengyao and asked, "What about the flow of time between the dungeon and outside?"

"Should be the same, but that might be different for the Demi-God Dungeon," Zhang Mengyao was not sure about that since this was the first time as well for the Demi-God Dungeon. As for all the dungeons she had explored so far, the flow of the time was the same as the earth.

Meanwhile, Herman had finished the discussion with his team, and he went to Tang Shaoyang, "It's a survival quest. We usually went to kill all monsters, but we decided to take the seven days because this is a new dungeon. We can't take the risk of losing our people."

Tang Shaoyang shook his head, "I can't follow your plan, Herman. While I promise to give you all the kills, however, I can't spend that long time inside the dungeon. I have to be somewhere else in a week. If you are concerned about your people's safety, then I will wipe the monsters by myself."

"You have promised not to take the levels from us! What's the meaning of this, Emperor Tang Shaoyang!?" Chief Mason was the first one to voice out his voice.

"Then go kill the monsters. I can't just wait here for seven days!"

"We have our own plan, and you can't just act on your own!" Chief Mason raised his voice further, insisting on focusing on their survival instead of going to hunt the monster.

Tang Shaoyang glanced at Chief Mason, but he did not respond to the man. The one with the power to decide was Herman, not this man who he did not know his name was.

"If you can kill all the monsters, then please do so. But I have a request for you, Sir Tang Shaoyang. You must share all the monsters' ranks you killed. We need the data for ourselves." Herman agreed.

"I don't mind, and I will not take the reward if there's any," Tang Shaoyang did not waste his breath on the subordinate.

Mason was about to say something, but he was silenced by Herman's gaze. He gritted his teeth, but he did not say anything anymore.

Tang Shaoyang summoned The Skelly Family and The Skeleton Army, all of them, a thousand Skeleton Army. He did not make his order as the skeleton received his will and immediately made their move.

Kaiser and Keeper went off on their own while the remaining Skelly Family led their own army, spreading out.

Then he summoned ten spirits. That was just right, just ten spirits. Maldros the Stormbringer, Ronan and Hargug the Helion Wolf, the trios Revenant, Malki the Inferno Blade Emperor, Karan the Battle God, Aerelion the Infernal Wyvern King, and Radiance the Primal Frostbringer.
