Armipotent - Chapter 1614: Dungeon 1
“There’s always a stupid individual like you who thinks you can take the world just because you have become a little bit powerful,” Tang Shaoyang picked Zheng Geming by the neck and lifted the old man like a cat.
“Why can’t you just live peacefully when you are this old? Even if you manage to take over my empire, your reign will not last long…” He was talking about the factions in the God Realm who wanted to take over the Earth. This old man would not be able to defend The Tang Empire against them. But he did not feel like wasting his breath on this old man.
“Don’t kill him!” Zhang Mengyao managed to resist the aura and stopped Tang Shaoyang from killing the old man.
“Are you under his hypnosis as well?” Tang Shaoyang could not help but ask.
“Of course not. We can’t just kill him, but we need to put into practice the system we have built so far. He has broken the law, and he will be judged in court. You can’t kill him like before. As Emperor, you have to be an example for your people.”
That was the reason Zhang Mengyao stopped Tang Shaoyang. Of course, the main reason was that she did not want Tang Shaoyang to be known as a cruel killer by his own people.
Tang Shaoyang really wanted to kill the man, but he stopped. He had determined to change, not ruling his people with force anymore by the law he had agreed upon. He had thought a lot to establish it, and he would follow his own rules.
“Give me the bracelet. We need it so this fool can’t use his skill anymore.”
Zhang Mengyao smiled and threw the ankle bracelet.
Tang Shaoyang caught the bracelet and put it on the old man. Then he threw the old man toward Kang Zian, “Catch everyone who joined his faction and investigate whether they joined under his influence or on their volition, Kang Zian.”
He waved his hand at his wives to follow him. He did not know the way to the new meeting room.
Kang Xue and Zhang Mengyao caught up with him and together went to another meeting.
“I am sorry,” That was the first thing that came out of Kang Xue’s mouth.
“You don’t need to. There are always stupid people, and we need to be more careful in the future,” Tang Shaoyang shook his head and rubbed her hair. He did not know how to comfort her.
He did not even blame Kang Jiayi for what happened. Zheng Geming used his relationship with Kang Jiayi and used his father-in-law to do his bidding.
The new meeting room was just a few floors above the throne room. When he entered the room, he was surprised by how big this new meeting room was. There was a platform at the end of the room with ten seats. The dragon wood carving behind the ten seats was what caught his attention. Behind the carving was his Empire’s emblem.
Then there were hundreds of seats in front of the platform, divided into sections. Each section came from different divisions. He saw Wei Xi his Vice Supreme General, Alton also his Vice Supreme General, Arbane the current king of the Elven Kingdom, Jasmine was also sitting in one of those ten seats, and Li Shuang.
Zhang Mengyao led him to the platform while Kang Xue went to her Healer Division. Zhang Mengyao whispered while they headed to their seats. “Three people could not attend the meeting; Forlan from the Adventurer Guild, Lunea from the Light Tower, and Lu An who hasn’t returned from the Dimensional Tower.”
Everyone was standing as Tang Shaoyang walked to his seat. As his butt touched the chair, everyone congratulated him simultaneously.
“Congratulations on reaching the God Rank, Your Majesty!” Their voices echoed in the meeting, echoing several times.
He was about to wave his hand and told them to skip the formality. It seemed like Zhang Mengyao read him like a book and held his hand. She sent a signal with her eyes not to say whatever he wanted to say right now. With a nod, Zhang Mengyao released her grip on his hand.
“Thank you, everyone,” Tang Shaoyang smiled and nodded, “You can sit, and let’s start with the meeting.”
“Good improvement,” Zhang Mengyao whispered as she sat down.
Tang Shaoyang was not asking for a big meeting like this personally. He just wanted to know the update about the last stage of the game. He wanted to know about the dungeon and the new stuff for the last stage, but Zhang Mengyao arranged such a big meeting like this.
Li Shuang stood up and opened the meeting. She was briefing what the meeting was about, and so on. Then she ended the opening with an introduction to a new division.
“For the new division, can you introduce yourself to His Majesty!”
Tang Shaoyang’s eyes looked for a section where this Dungeon Division was. It seemed like because it was a new division, it was placed a little far back. He was surprised to find out who was the Chief of the new division. It was the old guys who had been fighting along with him since the beginning of the game. They were there when they fought the Zombie Horde. They were with him when they entered the first mini-game in the hospital, and they were with him when they first entered the Survival Game: Qin Shoushan as Chief of the Dungeon Division, Zhao Zhong as the Vice Chief, and Yan Sheng also as the Vice Chief.
There was a doubt in his heart, not because of the choice, but because of Zhao Zhong. He knew well about Zhao Zhong, and he did not expect he would be picked up as the Vice Chief. The guy was reckless and similar to him or even worse where they thought that violence was the best way to solve the problem.
“Are you sure about putting Zhao Zhong as the Vice Chief?” He could not help but ask Zhang Mengyao. Of course, he was sending her a private message, not saying it out loud.
“The two candidates rejected the position. Cao Yuntai and Tian Donghai decided to stay in Tarrior. Zhao Zhong was the last candidate, and he accepted the position. But he is doing fine for now.” That was the reply from Zhang Mengyao.
The meeting started with the introduction. Qin Shoushan explained to Tang Shaoyang the main task of the Dungeon Division. Basically, everything related to the dungeon was handled by the Dungeon Division. Their task was to find the dungeon and regulate the dungeon.
By regulating the dungeon, the Dungeon Division would monitor the dungeon and decide which rank or level for a certain rank dungeon. Of course, the Dungeon Division had their own teams to test out for a permanent dungeon.
