Chapter 1619 Dungeon Speedrunner 1
Different from The Tang Empire, The United Sovereign placed the teleportation gates outside their main building. Not too far from the main building as Tang Shaoyang could immediately see the former Willis Tower which was now The United Sovereign smart base.
Through Chaos Eyes, he could see the vibrant city. The United Sovereign had successfully rebuilt the city, but there was a stark difference. Most of the buildings looked unnatural because they bought them from the System.
Tang Shaoyang had the dwarves rebuild his city, making it look more natural and sturdier. They saved their GC from buying the unnecessary building. They mostly spent their GC on the facilities from the Dimensional Tower, something they could not get from the smart base.
Soon they arrived in front of the Willis Tower and were greeted with familiar faces. Herman Bonivido with his former Vice Leaders, Frans and Henry were at the entrance. Herman quickly approached Tang Shaoyang with a smile, “You should have told us if you come, Sir Tang Shaoyang.”
Herman could no longer address Tang Shaoyang with Your Majesty to maintain his dignity as a King. But it was different for Frans and Henry, they bowed their heads slightly as a greeting. Zhang Mengyao and Viona returned with a slight bow as well.
Herman brought them into the building, into a meeting room. They did not try to dilly dally as Frans explained about the Demi-God Dungeon.
“It’s a single-run dungeon, and only twenty people can enter the dungeon. We are afraid the dungeon is too dangerous even for the Demi-God Rank, that’s why we are asking for assistance.” Frans ended the briefing.
Herman was not alone in the room. The other sixteen Demi-God Ranks were also in the room with them. They were looking at Tang Shaoyang, watching his expression carefully.
“I don’t think we need to worry anymore since Sir Tang Shaoyang is here with us,” Herman said, genuinely happy that The Tang Empire responded to their request seriously, sending The Emperor and The Supreme General at the same time.
Tang Shaoyang nodded, “This will be the first Demi-God Dungeon for us too. That’s why we accept your request.”
“So, do you have something in mind you want in exchange for helping us, Sir Tang Shaoyang?”
Herman was not shameless enough not to pay The Tang Empire for the assistance. He had an offer in his mind, but everything changed because The Emperor himself came for assistance. He prepared a thirty percent reward from the dungeon as the gift, but that might be too lousy for The Emperor.
Tang Shaoyang glanced at Zhang Mengyao. He thought they had done the talk and just needed to enter the dungeon. In honesty, he was not expecting anything from Herman and The United Sovereign. He just wanted to try out the Demi-God Dungeon for data, so he could make sure that the Demi-God Dungeon was safe for his people.
“How about if we split the reward from the dungeon evenly?”
Before Tang Shaoyang could respond to the offer, someone from The United Sovereign spoke up, “We can’t afford to split the reward like that, Your Highness! We don’t know when another Demi-God Dungeon will spawn in our territory!”
“Silent, Chief Mason!” Herman’s voice turned solemn as he glanced at his officer, “Mind your manners in front of The Emperor!”
It was rude for someone in his rank to interrupt the talk between Tang Shaoyang and Herman. Frans also glared at the person named Chief Mason.
“It’s fine,” Tang Shaoyang dismissed the issue, “I will not take anything from the dungeon. We come here to try out the Demi-God Dungeon so we can prepare if the same dungeon spawned in our territory.”
He was not informed about the reward, whether they had talked it out before or not. However, he was not interested in splitting the reward. His goal was to give a try to the highest-ranked dungeon so far.
“We are willing to split the reward, Sir Tang Shaoyang. Please don’t mind my officer’s words,” Herman would feel uneasy if Tang Shaoyang took nothing after helping them.
“It’s fine. We are not interested in the reward, at all. Let’s talk about how we should handle the dungeon. We will be following you into the dungeon, but we only act if the situation is getting more dangerous for you guys. I don’t want to take your levels from such a rare dungeon.”
That was genuine from Tang Shaoyang. Because he wanted to see if the seventeen Demi-God Ranks were enough to handle the Demi-God Dungeon. Based on the previous rank formula, seventeen Demi-God Ranks should be enough to clear a Demi-God Dungeon. He wanted to use The United Sovereign as an experiment. That might be one of the main reasons he did not want to split the reward.
Herman felt uneasy with how generous Tang Shaoyang was. The deal favored him more than the Tang Empire. That was why he felt uneasy, and then he glanced at Frans. The latter nodded his head.
Herman pretended, letting out a sigh, “Thank you for your generosity, Sir Tang Shaoyang. If you ever need our help, we will do our best to assist you.”
The first part was genuine, but the latter part was joking. If The Tang Empire could not handle their problem, then there was no way The United Sovereign could handle the problem as well.
Tang Shaoyang just nodded in response, and he immediately went straight to the business, “When will we enter the dungeon? Is it possible to do it today?”
“Of course, it’s possible!” Herman immediately agreed if Tang Shaoyang wanted to enter the dungeon right away. The faster he got rid of the Demi-God Dungeon, the better for him. He would be at ease, getting rid of a dungeon that might be a threat to The United Sovereign.
“How about if we do it in an hour?”
“What about now?” Tang Shaoyang did not feel like spending one hour in this place. Not because he disliked this place, but because he would rather spend his one hour time with his daughter. Especially when he had to leave for the Administrator’s mission in seven days.
