Chapter 1342 Impeccable Timing

”Itʼs not one year but ten years?” Tang Shaoyang was surprised. He earlier said it was a little over a year, and Rumru said nothing about it. It was weird because he was pretty sure it was exactly a year, maybe a little over since his first Survival Game. Even though the time went differently, it was still weird for this world to go faster, ten times faster than Earth.

Even though Earth started the Game earlier than Aqura. This world had advanced further than Earth. That was what made the situation weird and confusing. Based on how much time had passed, it would be unfair for him and his people since Aqura had grown stronger than Earth who was just entering the second year of the Game.

The Game was different as Aqura started it right at the final phase. Now, the time difference made Aqura have more advantages than Earth. Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow. In another year on Earth, Aqura would be more established than Earth. The flow of time made Aqura a superior world to Earth.

[What do you mean? Do you think I will be worried about you in just a year? I will not lie to you, but I am indeed worried that you will not come back after ten years. Not that I donʼt trust you, but I am worried that something might happen to you.]

That explained why Rumru was so excited. Because it was not one year, but ten years.

Tang Shaoyang frowned as this discovery was unexpected. It was quite upsetting that someone who started later than him might be stronger or higher in rank. But there was nothing he could do about it since it was the law of two different worlds. It was not something he could change even if he did not like it or how unfair the situation was.

[So…. Your worldʼs time flows differently than mine? Itʼs just been a year since for you.] Rumruʼs excitement died down. If that were the case, Tang Shaoyang might not be ready to fulfill the oath. In exchange for his bloodline, Rumru asked Tang Shaoyang to kill all the existing fake Gods. However, The Black Dragon was not so confident right now because one year was not enough for Tang Shaoyang to catch up to the fake Gods.

Even though he kept calling them fake Gods, they were so powerful that no one could face them. There was a reason why they were called a God, after all.

[Letʼs go back for now. I donʼt think you should meet with Frost. Those fake Gods are monitoring the Orin Kingdom, and they might notice your arrival if you come to Orin. You can still go back, right?] It was a change of plan. The Orin Kingdom was currently in a war against those fake Godsʼ followers. They might have an eye on the Orin Kingdom. Tang Shaoyang would be in danger, and his hope for vengeance would disappear.

”You donʼt need to worry. If I am not ready, I will not be here,” Tang Shaoyang smiled as he continued his steps, ”I have heard your story, do you want to listen to mine?”

Rumru was anxious at first that Tang Shaoyang did not want to go back. But then he decided to listen to Tang Shaoyang first.

Tang Shaoyang slowed down his steps and shared his story. There were a lot of things he skipped, but he told The Black Dragon the important ones. The main story would be his battle against The Divine Dragon and God Ranks. He told The Black Dragon that he had killed a Divine Dragon. Even though he resorted to trickery, he ended up killing The Divine Dragon.

[I see… Thatʼs why you are confident. If you have killed dozens of God Ranks, then it should not be an issue for you to kill eight.]

Even though Rumru said so, his voice did not have the same confidence as Tang Shaoyangʼs. It took a little bit of his time as he shared his story, and he saw the tall wall, covered in white snow ahead of him. Of course, he saw them through Spirit Eyes because his Spirit Eyes always looked at his surroundings.

Tang Shaoyang picked up his pace, and he arrived at the front of the gate quickly. The steel gate was closed, devoid of guards. However, he sensed two guards above and another two guards behind the gate. They did not notice him coming.

”I thought they were in a war, but why is the guard so sloppy? The defense was nothing but this frail stone wall and steel gate,” He muttered while looking up at the wall. The two guards above were sitting on their comfortable chairs inside the tower instead of on a guard.

[Because this is the back side of the city. No one can attack them from this side, so they put all the guards on the other side.]

Tang Shaoyang did not understand at first, but then he enlarged his vision on Spirit Eyes. He realized why the enemy could not come from the back. They were on top of a mountain, and the only path to reach the city was on the other side. If he looked further back, it was a steep cliff. It was a straight vertical cliff, so it would be hard for a huge army to come from the back. The city itself was wide, the wall stretched to the edge of the cliff. The enemy could not surround the city as well, meaning the only way to attack the city was from the other side.

”But still, you need to put more guards when you are in a war. Their chance to breach this side might be small because it would be hard not to notice for a big army to climb from this side. However, what if they only send a small group to infiltrate the city? Didnʼt they think about it?” Tang Shaoyang shook his head with how careless Frost was. There was no need for a big army, a hundred Primordial Ranks or even Legend Rank should be able to climb the mountain or even fly. A hundred Legend Rank would devastate the army if they attacked from behind.

”I have a lot to ask, especially about those Gods. But I think I need to meet Frost and Jacky first. They are so careless not to guard their back….” Tang Shaoyangʼs words trailed off because, at this moment, he saw a group of people coming from behind him. What he feared the most happened, a group of people in white armor approached the city.

”I said a hundred, but they sent more than five hundred people,” Tang Shaoyang was still looking up. it seemed the two guards were staying in their chairs. The thick forest and the heavy snow made it harder for the guard to see the ambush, but now they were lazing on the chair. It was just a matter of time before these people infiltrated into the city.

[What are you talking about….] Rumru did not know what Tang Shaoyang talked about until he saw the shared vision of the Spirit Eyes. He was still new to the concept of spirits, so he did not know that he could share his vision with Tang Shaoyang until Tang Shaoyang shared his vision with him.

A group of knights, half of them wore white armor and the other half wore black armor. The one with black armor had a cape with a clown mask on it while the one with white armor had a sun symbol on their capes. There was no need to guess, the black armored people were Clown Godʼs followers, and the white armored people were the Sun Godʼs followers.

[Itʼs Clown Troupe and Phoebus Legion! They are Clown Godʼs followers and Sun Godʼs followers.]

”Their capes are telling me their identities already,” Tang Shaoyang chuckled, ”It seems you have no confidence in me, so I will show you a little bit of how strong I am right now.”

Tang Shaoyang turned around and decided to take care of the enemy by himself instead of notifying Frost. These knights did not know that they were caught, so they moved slowly. They did not want to get noticed before entering the city for sure. Their task was to create chaos inside the city to create confusion. Then the other half was tasked to break or open the gate amidst the chaos.

Tang Shaoyang appeared on top of a tree, soundless and unnoticed. He used Detection, not to all of them but to the people in the front that looked like the leaders of this infiltration operation. The strongest was Legend Rank; there were fifty of them. Then there were a hundred and fifty Primordial Ranks, and the remaining knights should be Mythical Rank. Without a doubt, this was a group of elite.

”I want to show you my Skeleton Army, but they are not strong enough to face these people,” Maybe the leader of the Skelly Family might be able to fight them, but not the Skeleton Army, ”I guess I have to fight them myself.”
