After finding out the distance between the city and the frontier, they had to take the train. Tang Shaoyang thought it would take at least a few hours to reach the frontier. He thought it was better to fly, but he was wrong. It took the train less than ten minutes to reach the frontier.
When he heard frontier, he thought it was a fort for an army which was usually not that big. He thought it was smaller even to the Arnoit City. To his surprise, the fort was ten tis bigger than the city.
The frontier was in a "T" shape, but the head was longer and the leg was much shorter. That was how the frontier was shaped, and it was built to match up the one-hundred-ter-tall wall in the head side.
The train did not stop at a station like they were in Arnoit City. It was an open field and there was a booth next to each carriage except for where Captain Baro and his subordinates were.
Tang Shaoyang ca down following Captain Baro. A man in the sa uniform approached Captain Baro. As they talked, he looked at the other carriages. The rcenary imdiately went to the booth. From his sharp hearing, he could hear what they talked about. It was about registering to participate in the Void Gate defense.
"Palmas doesn't need to risk his life anymore because he already has everything, but it's different for these people. They co here to get rich or if they are lucky, the Hurakan Kingdom will note them and recruit them into the legions."
Atilla ca next to him. She heard what Tang Shaoyang said before departing.
"Or to escape from their enemies. The big faction and alliance don't have the courage to extend their hands here. No one dares to ss with The Hurakan Kingdom, even the Ancient Kingdom or even the God Alliance. Even those people from the Dragon Realm will not act unruly here." Ira added.
The Hurakan Kingdom was a new na in Tang Shaoyang's ears. He never heard of them before, especially for a kingdom this strong. It was weird that he never heard of their na before.
"Commander Edson wants to et you all! Follow !" Baro's voice interrupted Tang Shaoyang's thoughts. He was about to ask them about this Hurakan Kingdom, but he held it back.
The area they were right now was most likely the housing and entertainnt area. There were a few bars, an arena, and even a gambling house as he walked on the way to et Commander Edson. There was even a brothel here.
Tang Shaoyang understood the reasoning behind these entertainnts. These were places for the soldiers to de-stress maybe after the long and risky fight against the Void Creatures.
Commander Edson seed to be the highest person in command in this frontier. At least, that was what he caught on each ti Baro ntioned the na. Baro said it with respect and pride each ti he ntioned Commander Edson.
"We are here."
Tang Shaoyang looked at the three-story building in front. When Baro said that Commander Edson wanted to et them. He expected a mansion, a fitting place for the highest-ranking in command, not a three-story ordinary building. Even the brothel looked much better than this one.
"Commander Edson wants to et a representative from each team. You can bring one person with you as well."
Tang Shaoyang glanced at Ira, and the latter nodded. Even though he had a Chief Administrator and a Senior Administrator on the team. Ira's place as his trusted aid was irreplaceable.
"Just a reminder for you who wait outside, don't you dare fight here. Believe , you don't want to know what will happen to you, even if you are Administrator!"
Before leading them to the building, Baro warned the people who would wait outside. He did not ntion any specific punishnt, but that was enough to deter the people from Chalice. The warning was ant for them in the first place.
Baro motioned his hand at the six people to follow him inside the building. The interior looked as ordinary as the exterior. There was no surprise that the interior was luxurious despite the ordinary exterior.
They followed Baro to the third floor where Commander Edson was. A man with white short hair was sitting behind the table and ca into sight as the door opened. He had the appearance of soone in his mid-forties with a white beard. His eyes were on the door as if he expected them to co.
Baro motioned his hand to them to enter as he rushed toward the white-haired man, "They are from the Administrator Space for the draft call, Sir."
A slight frown ford on the man's forehead. He scanned the six people once more, and the frown deepened.
"Who are they? We are expecting an Executive Administrator."
Baro did not answer it imdiately as he glanced at Atilla. He expected the other party to explain it as they knew more of the inside story than him. Atilla picked up the clue and took one step forward.
"My na is Atilla from Kalisto, Sir. Unfortunately, Sir Palmas died in an accident and could not answer the draft call. The Executive Administrators ca to a decision to send us as Sir Palmas' replacent."
Hearing the story, the frown on the man's forehead deepened. It was much worse news than hearing Palmas dodged the draft call. For an Executive Administrator to die, it ant the Void Cult got them. That was the only possibility for an Executive Administrator to die. No one was stupid enough to fight an Executive Administrator as it was the sa as challenging all Administrators. That was why he ca to this conclusion, Palmas was killed by the Void Cult.
'Kalisto… Kalisto… Kalisto…'
He rembered the nas, of the top teams from the Administrator Space. If they sent three top teams, then it was the sa as sending an Executive Administrator.
"The leader in this mission is The Reds team, and he is the captain of the team, Tang Shaoyang." Atilla then gestured toward Michael, "And he is Michael, Chalice's captain."
