Chapter 1668 People Mind Is Complicated
Tang Shaoyang looked in the direction where the calamity retreated. His Chaos Eyes could not reach where the kingdom was, but he must be in the right direction. He stood on top of the wall, waiting for Birom and the others.
They took so long, and Tang Shaoyang almost went by himself. Birom came in time before his patience ran out. The man slightly bowed his head toward him.
"Thank you for saving Anne. She is my former Admin Helper and also a team member. I have considered her as my daughter. I am grateful that you come in time and save her."
"There's no need to thank me. I am just doing Ar..." Tang Shaoyang paused for a moment, "I am just doing the task that Executive Arion requested me to do."
He almost called Arion with the name. That might not be good for Arion. Not that he cared for Arion, but the job was a job. He was here as Senior Administrator, not The Emperor.
Then he noticed the conversation would continue. There was more that Birom wanted to say, and he knew it would be long. He cut him off before Birom could say whatever he wanted to say.
"I am going to leave for the kingdom. I will leave you behind if you dawdle around."
"NO! Don't fight the kingdom! At least we must wait for Sir Arion if we want to defeat the kingdom!" Anne raised her voice. The fear and concern mixed in her tone. Despite what Tang Shaoyang showed her, she did not have the confidence to beat the kingdom.
Even though they had gathered more teams now, and another Chief Administrator with them. Anne still did not believe they could defeat the kingdom unless Executive Arion joined them.
"You just need to tell us what kind of calamity that killed your captain. Did you meet the king?"
Tang Shaoyang asked that so his team members would not be stupid to go after the dangerous calamity. He was afraid that they might be careless just because they were with him.
Anne hesitated for a moment, but she gave her answer, "I will join the raid too. I want to avenge Lendar and the others."
"Just so you know, I am not protecting you during the raid. You are on your own!" Tang Shaoyang immediately told her that he would not be responsible for them if they joined the raid.
He could tell that they were not in a good condition to fight, not because they were injured but their mentality. He was not going to babysit them during the raid, but he needed their information.
Anne was surprised because she felt like it was natural for them to help each other. She heard many notorious things about this man, and she started to believe it after hearing this from the man himself. She thought he was decent, different from the rumors at first.
But he might be not far from the Administrator Killer in the rumor. The reason he saved them was because of Executive Arion, not because he wanted to.
"But why? We are fellow administrators, aren't we supposed to help each other? Why don't you want to protect us?"
Anne dared to question Tang Shaoyang now. She was very respectful at first, but the situation changed now. She viewed Tang Shaoyang as a savior who saved her before. Her mental state was not good, at the bottom.
However, the situation is different now. She was aware that she was safe now. There was another reliable figure on her side, someone she could trust, Chief Administrator Birom. Her muddled mind became clear now, and she no longer put Tang Shaoyang above her even though he saved her and the others.
In her mind now, it was natural for him to save her and the others. They were comrades, from the same side. They should help each other.
