Chapter 1766  "Cooperation"

"You are wasting my time, Michael. Just accept his condition."

Atilla could no longer watch it. She knew that her friend had the pride, but the chance to get such a mission along with the reward was rare.

"It's reasonable condition. You don't like him, and he doesn't like you. So it's better if you two don't interact during the mission. You don't need to be annoyed about babysitting him as well since your team will act separately. What else do you want?"

Michael turned to the voice, not expecting to hear that from his friend, "Are you on his side as well?" He asked with a deepened tone, holding his frustration and anger.

"I am on no one side…" Atilla raised her right eyebrow, looking up, "I am on the mission side. I just want to go for the mission, the faster the better it is for me. You can make it faster by complying with his condition. Or you can decline the mission as well. It doesn't matter to me. However, I advise you not to be stupid and take the mission."

Clenching his fist, and staring at Atilla in disbelief for a moment, then Michael relaxed. Opening his fist and letting out a sigh, falling back on his seat once more. He closed his eyes for a moment before giving his answer.

"I will cooperate!"

Tch!

Tang Shaoyang clicked his tongue and cast a displeased gaze at the woman. With how prideful Michael was, he expected Michael to back down from the mission. Someone like Michael would not listen to him no matter what he said. If he said A, Michael would do B or any other options.

He expected Michael to decline the condition. Michael would back down from the mission rather than agree with his condition. But his attempt failed because of Atilla.

"Why don't we start with an introduction before leaving?" Atilla tried to tone down the tense atmosphere.

"There's no need. I don't think your team members want to know anything about me either. Let's leave for the mission immediately." Tang Shaoyang dismissed the idea. He could see the unpleasant stares from Atilla's team members. Just like Michael, they did not like him as well.

It was understandable if he looked from their perspective, but he did not give a damn about them. Understand or not, he would not try to suck them up.

Khaya maintained her poker face while the other elves crumbled from the pressure.

Anne also had an uncomfortable expression and did not know what to say. She knew her captain well despite their short interaction. Her captain was the type that did not care and did not like the formality. More casual and blunt, but not the type that was arrogant and bossy yet strict.

Tang Shaoyang's Admin Helpers were used with their captain. They did not show any reaction, not even worried despite their captain's first rocky exchange with the famous team.

"I agree!" Michael seconded the idea, "Didn't you tell me not to waste our time?" He glanced at Atilla.

Since both sides did not want to, Atilla shrugged. She turned around, as Tang Shaoyang said. Her team members looked displeased with the situation. She said nothing.

"Send us for the mission, Blue Cloud!"

[I will teleport to the location in five seconds.] Blue Cloud proceeded with the countdown. Exactly five seconds later, everyone in the room disappeared.

When the Executive Administrator said defending the Void Gate. Tang Shaoyang expected to be teleported into a desolated and bleak area. To his surprise, he was standing on top of the altar surrounded by the crowd.

The crowd was not waiting for him. They were there to do their own business. Or to be more exact the altar looked like in the middle of a market. Stalls opened near the altar, selling equipment, potions, scrolls, and more.

The crowd glanced at the altar for a moment, and then they continued doing their own business.

There were two men in uniform, sitting behind the table near the stairs. The two glanced at the new arrivals. One of them beckoned his hand at them.

Tang Shaoyang was about to come over, but Ira moved first, "I will take care of the arrangement. Just don't fight with the other teams."

The Reds followed Ira, and the two teams followed them behind.

The two men in uniform were officers who watched the teleport. There was a brush and a scroll on the table, listing the names that arrived in the city.

The officer on the right picked up the brush, and the officer on the left looked up at Ira.

"What's your party name? And I want all names in your party."

One in charge questioned, and the second one recorded the visitor's information.

"We are from the Administrator Space, and we are here for the Draft Call."

The one in charge of taking notes froze and looked up at Ira. Both officers immediately stood up and welcomed the group with even more respect, "Welcome to Arnoit City."

They did not know what the draft call meant, but the words Administrator Space were enough to make them act like this.

"We are very sorry, but we don't know what you mean by draft call. Can you tell us more details?" The officer in charge of questioning asked.

"We are sent here to guard the Void Gate…"

The officer's eyes widened in shock, but he recovered quickly. He glanced at his colleague, "You stay here. I will guide them to meet Captain Barome!"

"I will escort you to meet Captain Barome. He is the one in charge of bringing the volunteer to the Void Gate's area."

The group followed the officer, walking through the crowd. Tang Shaoyang looked around, looking at the items put on the stall. From the short exchange between the officer and Ira. The city and the Void Gate were not in the same area. It explained how the city flourished instead of looking dreary from the constant attack from the Void Creatures.

They were led to a building with a Hurakan Post sign on it. Through Chaos Eyes, he could see everything inside the building. There was only one person inside the building, a man with a red and black uniform, sleeping on the table right on the second floor.
