Armipotent - Chapter 1695: Guests In The Night

Tang Shaoyang watched the people gathering above his building. They were wearing all black, covering their face as well with a white mask. It was a similar mask to what Arkir wore.

“That’s right. We didn’t accept their request, so it’s natural for them to try to get rid of us. They don’t want an unknown variable such as the strongest mercenary corps staying in the city.”

He chuckled when he found out their real ranks. There were twenty people, and it would make it thirty with the people from the other buildings. They were mostly Epic Ranks with two Ancient Ranks.

Tang Shaoyang notified his team members, making sure no one hurt his servant in the building. The servants had been doing a good job in the last five days. He did not want any of them to get into the crossfire after their great service.

After notifying his team members, he used Blink, appearing between the twenty people in his pajamas. He nudged them with his aura, and they were startled. The twenty men in black turned toward Tang Shaoyang and their eyes widened in shock.

Before they could do anything, Tang Shaoyang pulled them into the King of Calamity Domain. He did not want to make any ruckus and let his Admin Helpers take care of the ten assassins outside the building.

Inside the domain, the twenty people immediately covered their noses with their hands. They were in the barren land filled with dark poisonous gas. It was not a place for people to live for sure.

“Where are we!?” They were panicked that they were suddenly teleported into a place they did not know.

“Calm down and take the antidote first!”

The Ancient Rank was much calmer than the others. He knew the concept of domain and recognized they were inside a domain.

Having a leader in this situation assured them. They followed the order and took the antidote.

“You are quite daring, trying to ambush The Reds’ base!”

Everyone looked toward the voice and found The Reds’s Captain. They recognized Tang Shaoyang in one glance, one of the strongest individuals in the Salyra Kingdom as someone from Obsidian Ranked Mercenary.

Tang Shaoyang was holding Azure Dragon Blade in his left hand, standing ten meters away from the group.

“Blame yourself for not knowing your place, lowly mercenary!” The second Ancient Rank snorted with mockery, “If you accept Duke Amalric’s request, then this will never happen to you. You can still enjoy your privilege as Obsidian Ranked Mercenary. But you made a stupid decision that will bring about your demise. Even if we are in your domain, it’s still twenty against one! You can’t kill all of us!”

Tang Shaoyang shook his head and found it funny coming from an Ancient Rank. He could not blame them though for not knowing who they faced.

“This is bullying, but don’t blame me!”

He pulled out the azure-colored sword and his figure blurred. No one could see his movement until they heard a scream.

Everyone turned toward the scream and found that the two Ancient Ranks lost their limbs. Their leader no longer had legs and hands. Their bodies were hanging in the air because of the two red blades on their shoulders.

Their bodies trembled because no one did not know how it happened. They could not see their enemy’s movement, at all. Everyone had heard the reputation of The Reds’ captain, but not expecting he was to be this strong were two Ancient Ranks were helpless.

“He is Myth Rank!”

One of them exclaimed. It was known that there was only one Myth Rank in the Salyra Kingdom. That one Myth Rank related to the Royal Family. They did not expect the strongest mercenary corp would have another Myth Rank.

After hearing that, they used Detection on Tang Shaoyang. The only thing they got from the Detection was a name. The result only displayed a name, not the rank or even level.

“H-h-he m-mi-might be above the Myth Rank!”

When they used Detection on the two Ancient Ranks, their leader’s rank and level were displayed. They should be able to see at least his level or his rank even if their enemy was Myth Rank. The fact that their Detection failed to display either of them was proof that The Reds’ Captain was above Myth Rank.

Tang Shaoyang grinned as he summoned more Chaos Blades, surrounding them with the blades.

“Then let’s make it easy. Who ordered you to kill my team!? I will grant an easy death to whoever gives me the answer!”

Tang Shaoyang used Chaos Touch on one of the Ancient Ranks. The man screamed in pain, to the point of breaking his vocal cords. Then The Ancient Rank turned into a lump of meat in a few minutes. He then threw the lump of meat at them. Everyone avoided the lump of meat. They could not even see the face anymore.

“Duke Amalric! It’s Duke Amalric who ordered us to get rid of The Reds! Not just The Reds! He intends to get rid of all the mercenary corps that refused his request!”

The remaining Ancient Rank gave up quicker than his subordinate. With a single punch, Tang Shaoyang popped the man’s head. An easy death was granted. Then the Chaos Blades massacred the remaining assassins.

He burned the assassins down before leaving the domain. Ira and Nayla had been waiting for him on the rooftop.

“Isn’t it overkill to use a domain on them, Cap?” Nayla shook her head and did not expect their captain would be that serious even when they fought Epic Ranks.

Tang Shaoyang shrugged, “I don’t want to make any ruckus. Duke Amalric ordered them to kill us, so let’s empty the building and move up. Let’s not make Duke Amalric waste his force on us. That might mess up our plan. Dismiss the servants and send them home safely.”

Ira nodded, “We expected it’s Duke Amalric’s doing. The Reds and The Daenelis are the only two mercenaries who refused the two requests. Do you want me to inquire what happens on The Daenelis Clan’s side?”

“They should be able to handle those assassins with ease, no? They might take it as an offense if we ask them about the assassin. Let’s not create trouble.”

Tang Shaoyang summoned Arkanos, a human spirit, “Follow Arkanos after you send our servants back to their home.”
