Chapter 1760 Adam Abnormality
He recognized the man, Arion. The woman wore a white dress and a white shawl on her shoulder. She also had a veil, covering her face. The woman must be the Executive Administrator Clementine.
"What\'s now, Tang? Why do you suddenly want to cancel the Special Mission? Are you going to admit that you are one of the Void Cults now?"
Arion sounded annoyed when he said that. Even though he knew Tang Shaoyang was not related to the Void Cult.
"Before that, I want to know what Adam exactly said to you guys. Does that thing say that I want to cancel the mission? Just that? I want the exact words."
Arion furrowed his brow, confused for a moment. Why would Tang Shaoyang be curious about what Adam said to him? He glanced at Clementine, and the latter nodded.
"Adam tells me that you want to cancel the mission. It asks me to persuade you to take the mission."
The woman furrowed her brow, glancing at Arion.
"Did Adam say that to you? I want the exact words, Arion!"
Arion was confused as even Clementine asked the same thing now. He recalled the words, and then he nodded. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
"Adam says that Tang Shaoyang wants to cancel the mission and ask me to remove Tang Shaoyang Administrator Class because he fails to prove his innocence about his relation with the Void Cult."
"Wow. Isn\'t that interesting how you two receive a different message?"
Tang Shaoyang was in doubt that the AI was manipulated, but he was now sure Adam was manipulated by one of the Executive Administrators. And the one who manipulated Adam hated him. Palmas could be the culprit, or maybe there was another Executive Administrator who hated him.
He sat across the table, "I just want to confirm whether Adam is influenced by the Executive Administrator or not. Now we have the answer. Maybe you should ask the other Executive Administrators whether they got the same messages or not."
For the first time, Arion had a solemn look, "This is the Executive Administrator\'s problem to fix. Let\'s talk about why you want to cancel your special mission first."
"I never said that I wanted to cancel my mission. I want to meet The Executive Administrator…"
Tang Shaoyang told them the details. He just wanted to meet the Executive Administrator until Adam threatened to teleport him forcefully to the mission location.
Arion and Clementine were surprised when they heard the whole story. They immediately realized there was something wrong with Adam. Of course, it was possible that Tang Shaoyang was lying to them.
"You can say that I am lying, but it still doesn\'t change the fact that you both received different messages, no? That\'s your problem to take care of. I am here for another thing."
Tang Shaoyang told them about Palmas\' involvement in the War of Worlds against Earth.
"You can say that our problem is outside the Administrator\'s work, but remember that he abuses his position as Executive Administrator. He handed me his mission, and now he is trying to take over my world while I am performing my duty as Administrator."
Bam!
Clementine slammed her hand onto the table. The table turned into white dust immediately. Through her eyes, she was clearly furious with what she heard.
Arion massaged the space between his eyes. With all the pieces connected, it was obvious who was behind Adam\'s manipulation.
"So, what do you want, Tang?"
"Don\'t worry, I will still take the mission but with more conditions. The first condition, I want you to protect my family for the entire duration of the special mission. The second condition, I am allowed to return for the War of Worlds and will continue my mission after the War of Worlds is over."
Tang Shaoyang did not ask for something ridiculous, something reasonable. Arion was on his side, and the woman called Clementine seemed to be on his side as well. He assumed so for her to agree with his instant promotion to Senior Administrator. Even agreed to give him the quota to raise his force in the Administrator Space by giving him more quotas for more promotions.
Arion and Clementine furrowed their brows, exchanging glances. The condition was reasonable, but there was one thing that they could not get involved in.
"We can agree with the second condition, but not the first one. Because you are making the request as Administrator, we can\'t get involved in your personal conflict as Executive Administrator."
Tang Shaoyang raised his right eyebrow. He thought it was natural to ask for protection for his family. He thought they could do that much for him.
"How about if we increase the reward instead. If you kill ten thousand Void Creatures, you will get one Primordial Bloodline or God Rank equipment. If you kill one hundred thousand Void Creatures, we give you three of them. If you kill a million Void Creatures, we give you seven of them. You can choose whether you want equipment or Primordial Bloodline."
Clementine added more rewards instead.
The reward was tempting, but it could not be compared with his family\'s safety. His finger tapped the tables, contemplating. Knowing there were many targeting him, he felt uneasy leaving his family unprotected. Especially if it was the Executive Administrator who targeted him.
The Executive Administrator had many privileges that he did not know. They might have something that could even sneak into his world. Then Tang Xiulan\'s face resurfaced in his head, and that made him waver to take the mission. Especially with the Ancient Dimensional Tower, meaning he had an alternative to go to guard the Void Gate.
Tang Shaoyang closed his eyes for more than a minute. When he opened his eyes, Clementine and Arion were looking at him, waiting for his answer.
"If you can\'t guarantee my family\'s safety, then I can\'t take the Special Mission. Especially knowing one or maybe more Executive Administrators are my enemy. You should let Palmas take the draft call."
Even though he knew that he would regret canceling the mission. But he would regret it even more if something happened to his family, and he was not there to protect them.
After weighing whether he would regret it more, he made the decision. He decided not to take the mission even though it might be his shortcut to get stronger. What was the point of him getting stronger when he lost the people he was supposed to protect?
Clementine could not believe what she heard, but Arion was not surprised by Tang Shaoyang\'s decision. Especially after they argued during the first special mission. He knew Tang Shaoyang would choose his family over the reward.
