Armipotent

Chapter 1768  Captain Barome

Atilla thought Michael was better than this. That was the reason why she dropped Chaliceʼs name when Executive Administrator Clementine asked her to bring an additional team for the mission.

Michael kept provoking Tang Shaoyang, and the latter did not take the provocation lightly. She had a feeling that if Michael continued provoking Tang Shaoyang. The latter would not hesitate to pick the fight.

”Thereʼs a reason why the Executive Administrator chose them to lead the mission. Even if you doubt their capability of taking on the Void Creatures. Itʼs not too late to berate, mock, or even humiliate them later.”

It continued on, mostly Atilla talking it out with Michael. She sounded mad at first, but then she persuaded Michael, telling the latter how important the mission was for him and his team.

Captain Barome watched the interaction from the side. It was interesting to find out that the new Administrator was the one who led the draft call.

He assessed the situation and got the gist of what happened. For the old timer, the blondy man called Michael did not like the fact that a newbie led the team. However, their higher-ups entrusted the mission to the newbie. That might be the reason why the blondy guy tried to pick up on the newbie.

Captain Barome thought it differently than Michael even though this man with black hair was a new administrator. In fact, he admired the black-haired man to be trusted by the Executive Administrator to be sent here.

”Itʼs better for you to settle your differences here. Commander Edson will not tolerate infighting inside his fort. You might get kicked out if this continues.” He retracted his aura as he said that.

”We have agreed not to interact during our mission in guarding the Void Gate. It would help if you could tell your commander to put us in a different area or shift.” Tang Shaoyang replied.

Captain Barome looked at Tang Shaoyang, then at Michael. Then he nodded, ”I guess thatʼs a solution. I will tell Commander Edson about it, but I canʼt guarantee that you will not be kicked out. Either one of you will get kicked out, or maybe he will send you all back instead.”

Tang Shaoyang shrugged, ”Thatʼs fine by me because I will be sent here again or maybe to another gate.”

Captain Barome acknowledged Tang Shaoyangʼs decision. After finding out that Tang Shaoyang was the leader, he regarded that as the decision of all three teams.

”We will leave for the frontier in five hours. My men are currently getting additional supplies right now. You can check out the city or even maybe you are interested in new items in this place. There are a few items that you can only find here. We will meet again here in five hours.”

”We will leave for the frontier in five hours. My men are currently getting additional supplies right now. You can check out the city or even maybe you are interested in new items in this place. There are a few items that you can only find here. We will meet again here in five hours.”

Tang Shaoyang nodded, ”Then we will meet again in five hours.”

Tang Shaoyang and Ira were the first ones to leave, followed by Atilla and Michael. As soon as they got out, Atilla pulled Michael, ”We need to talk, Michael.”

The Reds, Kalisto, and Chaliceʼs members were confused that Michael was dragged by Atilla. Everyone could tell something happened inside.

”We have five hours before we leave for the frontier. You can do whatever in the meantime, but make sure to be back here in five hours.”

His team members exchanged glances since they did not know what to do. Meanwhile, Tang Shaoyang went back to the market. He wanted to check out the stalls. Ira and Khaya followed him.

”Why do you follow me?”

”To keep you out of trouble!” Ira was the first one to answer followed by a small whisper from Khaya.

”To get to know my captain.”

Tang Shaoyang just shrugged and went back to the stall that sold equipment. He wondered where they got this equipment for them to sell here. The stalls were nowhere near a proper store. Meaning it was an individualʼs collection or loot rather than a big merchant corporation.

He frowned after noticing a pattern. All the equipment was black and crudely made. It was like the work of an inexperienced blacksmith. There was no way it was a drop from the System. However, those itemsʼ quality was guaranteed.

There were many Myth Grade Equipment. He even found one Primordial Grade Blade. The interesting part was that he found a residual void energy in all that black equipment.

”They are the equipment used by the Void Creatures.” Khaya said as if she knew what was in her captainʼs mind, ”While most Void Creatures were similar to beast and monster, but the humanoid void creature also not a few. Some of them have that equipment.”

That explained why the equipment had the residual of Void Energy. He was interested in checking them out, thinking of buying a few to bring back home. After looking them through, he did not think that anyone would be interested despite being a high-grade weapon.

”Are you going to pick a new weapon?” Ira asked after noticing her captain had skimmed the stalls with equipment, especially the weapon. From what she could tell, her captain already had the best weapons. She had seen them a few times during the previous special mission.

”I thought I would buy a few to bring back home, but I donʼt think these kinds of weapons would fit my people.” He shook his head.

”You should buy a lot of them if you have the funds. While these equipment are ugly and lower in stats for their grade. They are much better than your world can offer, no? They are also much cheaper for their grade.”

Khaya might not know that Tang Shaoyang came from a new world that just entered the Game. Ira knew her captainʼs circumstances hence she gave him the advice.

The snow elf was confused while Tang Shaoyang rubbed his chin. He thought about it and had to agree with Ira. If he could arm Tarrior with high-grade equipment, that would make Tarrior stronger by several times.

He asked the price for the Myth Grade Sword and was surprised to find that they sold it cheap. When he meant cheap, it was dirt cheap, and most importantly the seller accepted Gold Coin. The sword in his hand, the Myth Grade Sword was a little over five million GC, and forty million for the Primordial Grade Sword.

Tang Shaoyang did not buy them, not until he returned to Earth. He thought of returning this month and buying all available equipment in this market.

”I am done checking. Is there any place you want to visit?”

Khaya did not understand why Ira made a suggestion to buy these inferior equipment, but she did not pry further. She suggested something different, ”You should stock up on some potions, especially antidotes for void poison.”

”I will go there after making sure our captain doesnʼt cause trouble, but I donʼt think he will need an antidote. Havenʼt you seen yourself from the previous mission?” Ira remembered what happened in the previous mission.

Right after the mission, Tang Shaoyang cured someone from the White Knight who was inflicted with void poison.

Khayaʼs eyes widened in realization. She remembered the event when Ira brought it up.

”I have Void Elemental Power, so I donʼt think those Void Creatures can poison with their energy.” Tang Shaoyang nodded.
