chapter 1769 head to the frontier
even though ira had a captain who could tackle the void poison, she still stocked up the antidote for void poison. they visited several shops after and returned to hurakan post.
tang shaoyang did not buy anything from their trip except for the food from the food stall, anything that interested him.
most of the team members stocked up the antidotes and other potions. there was nothing that could interest them from this place. the only one who bought a set of equipment was castor. the man proudly showed off his ugly armor and spear.
no one understood why castor bought the equipment, only tang shaoyang. castor was no longer human, but calamity. the equipment with void attribute was fit for castor.
tang shaoyang just shook his head at castor, but he noticed something different from his admin helpers. they were all too close to him. it reminded him of when he took a crowded train back before the game.
"what are you guys doing?" he asked, confused. they were never this clingy before.
he turned toward his admin helpers, and he was quick to catch. lucia, nayla, agnes, and kiara immediately looked away, but he saw where they were staring at. they were staring at chalice's team members.
tch!
"if this continues, i might end up killing them all."
he did not need to ask what happened to know. it must be michael's underlings bothering his admin helper when he was not with them. he could tell that in a single glance. especially when those people glared at him with hostility. they did not even bother to mask it.
"tell me if they cross the line! i would rather kick them out before any future troubles arise! that's better than losing our administrator class."
his voice was loud enough for everyone to hear it.
captain barome was inside the building all the time, and he heard what actually happened. he came out for the second warning.
"i have told you before. the previous one will be the first and the last warning. from now on, i will report everything to commander edson truthfully. commander edson will decide the next course of action for you all."
barome did not side with michael or tang shaoyang. he did not care whether both teams' actions were justifiable or not. these people came here for the mission and should focus on the mission instead of something stupid like this. while he had a high expectation for the administrator, he was now disappointed with how they acted, unprofessional.
"we will leave for the frontier in ten minutes!" barome returned to the building after announcing their departure.
atilla no longer hid her feelings, her frustration, especially to chalice after hearing captain barome. she turned toward michael and scanned chalice's team members one by one.
"this will not end here if your stupid pride gets us kicked out from the mission, chalice!" the warning was no longer exclusive to michael but to every one part of chalice.
even kalisto's team members looked displeased at chalice now. realizing they might have to return without finishing the mission, what made them mad. while most of them did not like the reds and tang shaoyang. they agreed with their captain there was no need to keep provoking the reds with the risk of losing the mission.
chalice totally distanced themselves from the reds, holding back their displeasure to the reds. atilla's threat did a wonder for them. even michael did not utter any words on the way to the frontier.
tang shaoyang was in conclusion that the city and the frontier were not that far when barome mentioned it. that was not the case at all. the distance between the city and the frontier was more than five hundred kilometers.
it was not that far considering tang shaoyang's flying speed. while he never tested how fast he was, he was confident that he would reach the frontier in less than an hour. but of course, they did not need to fly to the frontier.
the frontier and the city were connected with flying trains. they would be taking the flying train with the other volunteers. these volunteers were kinda similar to mercenaries. they got paid to help the hurakan kingdom guard the void gate, and the bonus was the equipment drop from the void creature.
"palmas uses a scheme to send me here, and these people come on their own?" tang shaoyang muttered in a low voice.
lines of people entering the train and filling all seven passenger carriages excluded them. more than two hundred people come here to take the job. meanwhile, an executive administrator was scared to go there.
