Chapter 1740 World Congress (3)
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
The fact that the Duchy of Michalina had a private conversation with the Tang Empire during the voting time became a center of attention. Even though the Duchy of Michalina did not stand out among the big factions during the tournament. They were still a big faction, stronger than most.It caused concern for the other big factions that the Duchy of Michalina got closer to The Tang Empire.
Among many, Gaius Barbarossa was the most concerned one. He did not know what the two factions talked about, but he did want to be left out. He wanted to form a deeper relationship with the Tang Empire.
After a quick discussion with his people, they agreed to approach the Tang Empire. Gaius Barbarossa accompanied by three people walked toward the Tang Empire’s section. While they were not that close, they had a positive exchange before. Gaius hoped that the Tang Empire would not treat them poorly after that.
While Zhang Mengyao and Li Shuang were not around, Kang Xue and Wei Xi came to greet the President of the Africa Nation.
“I am very sorry, but His Majesty doesn’t want to be disturbed for now. If you have something to discuss, you can speak with us.”
Wei Xi greeted President Gaius with a smile. He was The Vice Supreme General, quite well known in other factions. It did not feel that bad that Wei Xi came to greet them even though Gaius hoped The Emperor would greet them directly since they came over themselves.
‘Don’t take it to heart, President! It was Minister Li Shuang and Supreme General Zhang who responded to us.’
Gaius received a message from his Foreign Minister. He realized that The Emperor never directly stepped in unless it was a big issue.
“It’s fine. We are here to inquire about the Tang Empire’s decision about the Dimensional Tower. We want to know what The Tang Empire decided to vote for. I think we should work together, now and later against the factions from the other worlds inside the Dimensional Tower.”
Wei Xi and Kang Xue nodded, and both were smiling politely. They invited President Gaius into the Tang Empire’s section instead of standing. They took the empty space behind.
“We want to vote for Hell and Heaven Tower initially, but we have a change of mind for a specific reason.”
Gaius Barbarossa and the three ministers behind him had their pupils constricted when they heard Hell and Heaven Tower. They hesitated to go up one level to Ancient Level because of the God Rank, and The Tang Empire wanted to take the Hell and Heaven Tower where a faction could bring up to one hundred God Ranks. It was insanity, but they did not dare to say it out aloud.
“For a specific reason, we can’t mention, The Tang Empire and our vassals will vote for Ancient Tower.”
The Africa Nation considered voting for the Ancient Tower as well. An improvement from the previous tower. However, they were hesitating because of the God Rank requirement. They did not have a God Rank, meaning they might not be able to compete with the faction with the God Rank. The factions were from the other worlds, not from Earth.
If a faction from Earth had a God Rank, that said faction would rule the world already. However, the Tang Empire did not like they were worried about the God Rank. That made Gaius curious as to why they were so confident.
“We are considering voting for Ancient Level Tower as well, but we are hesitating because of the probability that the factions from other worlds might bring the God Rank. If that’s the case, we might not be able to compete in the Dimensional Tower with them.”
At this moment, Tang Shaoyang turned on the soundproof for the Tang Empire’s section. Whatever they said at this moment could not be heard from outside.
Gaius noticed the barrier turned redder as well. That was an indication that the soundproof function was activated. The other factions also noticed the soundproof activation. They all overheard that The Tang Empire was voting for Ancient Level Tower, but it made them curious as to why they suddenly activated the soundproof.
Gaius became nervous. He understood well whatever he heard now. It must not leak to the other factions.
Wei Xi received the private message from Tang Shaoyang, allowing him to divulge the God Rank information.
“We are not worried because we have God Ranks!”
Gaius’ eyes widened in disbelief, but then he immediately turned toward Tang Shaoyang. He saw the man’s back, playing with his daughter. If The Tang Empire had a God Rank, it must be The Emperor.
Then he immediately recalled his experience with Tang Shaoyang in the Demi-God Dungeon. Everything started to make sense now. How The Emperor defeated The Demi-God Rank from The Kingdom of Sand as well.
Gaius connected the dots, the reason why The System gave the Tang Empire special treatment. The only faction with two hundred seats. The only faction with two hundred vote values. Everything started to make sense now. The Tang Empire was just above the others.
The shock became a bigger shock as he recalled what the Vice Supreme General told him.
“…we have God Ranks instead of a God Rank.”
That meant the Tang Empire had more than one God Ranks. He looked Wei Xi in the eyes, clearly asking for clarification. Meanwhile, he was thinking who the other God Ranks were. Four names appeared in his mind, Zhang Mengyao, Lu An, Wei Xi, and Vice Supreme General Alton.
Wei Xi shook his head, “We have six God Ranks, but unfortunately I am not one of them.”
Gaius’ breath became erratic. If it was the world before the game, he might get a heart attack from this kind of shock. He was perfectly healthy for a Demi-God Rank, but the shock was too much for him.
The Tang Empire not just one or two, or even three God Ranks, but six God Ranks. With that force, The Tang Empire could easily take over the world. However, the Tang Empire never made movements against other factions.
“If you agree to vote for Ancient Tower, we can form an alliance inside the Dimensional Tower. The Tang Empire will protect The Africa Nation from the faction with God Rank. There will be more details about it, and we can have further discussions about the details after The World Congress. We can’t go into details within thirty minutes for the voting.”
Kang Xue added at the end. That was to persuade the Africa Nation to vote for Ancient Level Tower.
