Chapter 1688 Disguise
After an interrogation with the young man, the System suspected the culprit behind the void summoning was from The Salyra Kingdom and The Xales Kingdom. The organization might have a base on both kingdoms. It was their mission to find out based on those clues.
The five teams were split into two. The Daenelis Clan and The Reds were teleported into The Salyra Kingdom. The remaining three teams were in The Xales Kingdom.
The page also said the other team's mercenary ranks. The other teams were Onyx Rank and only The Reds were in Obsidian Rank. It was The System's assessment, telling them which team was the strongest.
Castor was feeling smug when he found out about it. While the others did not express themselves openly, they were clearly happy to find out that their team was the strongest.
"The Daenelis Mercenary is asking to meet you, Captain Tang Shaoyang. I have sent them to the waiting room."
A servant came over and informed Tang Shaoyang. He was surprised the prideful elf would come to them first. He expected them to work separately.
"Bring them to the meeting room. We will meet them there shortly!"
It was Ira who responded. She knew that Tang Shaoyang did not even know all the rooms in this building. Then letting her captain make a blunder, she replied for him.
Tang Shaoyang indeed did not know the meeting room and waiting room were different. He was about to meet them in the waiting room.
"The waiting room is where people queue to meet you, and the meeting room is where they meet you. There's also a banquet hall, a place where we celebrate if we complete a big mission. You also have your own office…"
Ira briefed Tang Shaoyang on all the rooms in their building as they headed to the meeting room.
They soon arrived in the meeting room where the three snow-elves were waiting for them. Tang Shaoyang did not know anything about them and did not know who the team captain was.
The meeting room was a room where they received a guest for sure. There were two tables, separated by five meters. The three snow elves stood up when Tang Shaoyang entered the room. Despite being prideful, they were polite to stand when he arrived.
Tang Shaoyang nodded at them and sat on his seat. The Snow Elves initiated the conversation.
"I am a Senior Administrator, Nandra. Even though there's no official position for a vice-captain, I can be regarded as vice-captain in my team. They are Junior Administrators in our team."
Nandra pointed to the male snow elf to her right named Arsus. Then the female snow elf to her left named Salia.
Tang Shaoyang did not introduce his team as Ira took the initiative. She did not let Tang Shaoyang speak to them. After the introduction, Ira asked their purpose for coming to meet them.
"My team captain wants to know how you will start the investigation. We want to ensure that we don't investigate the same area for the sake of the mission."
Nandra got straight to the point.
"We are going to start by investigating the external organization. So The Daenelis Clan can start investigating the nobles, the military, and the Royal Family within the kingdom."
They had not talked anything about it, but Ira already had a plan in her mind about where to start. She wanted to investigate the area with less risk.
Nandra kept her cold visage, scanning Tang Shaoyang and the other Administrators. She did not give a glance at the Admin Helper who kept talking on behalf of Tang Shaoyang.
"Unfortunately, we also planned to start the investigation with the external organization in the Salyra Kingdom. I wish The Reds will yield to The Daenelis Clan for this matter for the sake of the mission."
"Alright. We will investigate the internal force of The Salyra Kingdom!" Tang Shaoyang made it simple. He did not want to argue for work distribution.
For the first time, Nandra furrowed her brow. But that was just for a moment. She did not know why, but with how quick the opposite party made the decision. It felt like she fell into their trap. She did not pursue it further and stood up.
"The Daenelis Clan is grateful that you are willing to yield, Captain Tang Shaoyang. We will take our leave now."
The three snow elves left the room after that. As soon as they left, Ira glared at Tang Shaoyang, "Why did you relent to them? We are at an advantage because the System assessed us as the strongest team. We can't yield just because they ask us to."
Tang Shaoyang shook his head and made it clear to Ira that he did not care about the hierarchy between the teams.
"Does it matter who investigates who? If they are having a hard time with their investigation. It would delay our time completing the mission. I just want to complete the mission as soon as possible. Let's not prolong the mission by fighting between ourselves."
Ira let out a sigh, "But investigating the nobles and the Royal Family is harder. A slight mistake could turn the whole kingdom against us."
"That's why we take the biggest risk since our team is the strongest team."
Tang Shaoyang stood up, "I have sent my shadows to start the investigation. I need more information so my shadow can focus on a specific area to quicken the investigation."
He clapped his hands a few times and said, "Let's get to work. This should not be a hard mission. Their highest rank is Myth Rank!"
While the System provided the basic information about Sulan. The information did not include general information about the seven main powers of Sulan.
The Royal Family of the Salyra Kingdom was the Estanyol Family. They had existed even before the Game. The Game's appearance solidified further their foundation as the main power in Sulan. On the outside, The Salyra Kingdom was solid with its long history. The nobles fully supported the current King, and they focused on expanding their territory to bring The Salyra Kingdom to a new height.
However, having no problem meant a problem itself. It was just the kingdom had not found out the problem in their kingdom yet.
