Chapter 1500: Tips From The Experienced
It seemed like everyone inside the building overheard his conversation with the Sorc Clan. Everyone inside was looking at him as he entered the lodging. They gave him a weird look, including Oby who stood behind the counter. He walked to his usual spot at the counter.
Since most of the participants were in a party, they mostly sat at a table. He was one of the few loners in the thousand participants.
"It seems like you are not in a good mood," Oby said while wiping the glass in his hand.
Tang Shaoyang squinted his eyes at Oby, "You know what happened, but you did nothing."
"I did something. I called your sponsor to take care of the issue, no?" Oby smiled. He had called Ira long back when the three bear folks stood in front of his building. There was nothing he could do to the three because they were not making a ruckus.
Right after Oby said that Ira entered as well. The cook gave a glance at the female Admin Helper before whispering to Tang Shaoyang, "You still have to face the Administrator. Even though they are in the wrong, you are quite rough. So be careful, especially Amos."
Tang Shaoyang raised his eyebrow, recalling the person called Amos. He remembered the person called Amos. The man who hated dragons.
"What's the worst that can happen to me?" Tang Shaoyang asked, hoping Oby would spill to him so he could be prepared for what would come.

"Point reduction will be the worst," It was Ira who answered the question. She took a seat next to him, "But don't worry though. You probably just need to give the Sorc Clan the healing potion as compensation."
He noticed Ira looked more cheerful compared to the last few days. There was no need for him to guess what happened. She must have seen his name on the list. That was what made her happy.
"Tch," Tang Shaoyang clicked his tongue, "I don't even want to give them the healing potion." He no longer found his issue with the Sorc Clan funny anymore, "I hope they will really come to me tomorrow." He added in a low voice.
Oby and Ira exchanged glances, surprised to hear that it came from Tang Shaoyang's mouth. The cook immediately changed the topic, "What do you want for tonight? Want another Tortoine Steak?"
"NO! If you ever give me another Tortoine dish. I will never eat in your place anymore!" The dragon meat was still out of stock. Instead of trying another dish, he ended up just ordering the drink. He then took out his lunch box and ate his wife's food.
"You are not allowed to bring food from other places and eat here!" Oby raised his voice.
"This is not from the other places in this city. It's my wife's cooking. She prepared a lot for me," The answer left Oby speechless. He could not say anything when Tang Shaoyang said it was his wife's cooking.
Ira stayed for a glass of drink before leaving, "Keep up the good work, Tang." Those were her words before leaving.
Tang Shaoyang did not mention anything about Rank 8 Calamity or even the possibility of the Unique Rank Calamity. That was because Ira was part of the Administrator, and she might be one of the followers of the mastermind who wanted to change the trial into the city defense.
Having finished his food, he enjoyed Oby's beer. He was polite enough not to take out his Scorching Beer. The people on the first floor started to return to their rooms. After everyone left with only him and Oby also the workers in the kitchen.
"Do you know anything about city defense, Oby?"
Oby stopped wiping the glass in his hand for a moment, furrowing his brows. A few seconds later, he continued and put the glass on the shelf behind him. Then he took a chair and sat across Tang Shaoyang.
"Where do you hear about city defense?"
"Madaki, my personal dismantler..." Tang Shaoyang told Oby about his conversation with Madaki. He also told Oby about his encounter with Rank 8 Calamity as well as how Aerelion was killed.
"I see... Void Tigris... Blighted Serpent..." Oby muttered in a low voice. His finger tapped the counter, "Did you find more Rank 2 and Rank 3 Calamity than Rank 1 Calamity?"
"How do you know?" Tang Shaoyang was surprised.
He found more Rank 2 Calamity and Rank 3 Calamity or even Rank 4 Calamity than Rank 1 Calamity. He thought it was normal that Rank 1 Calamity was hard to find. The Rank 1 Calamity was the lowest food chain. They were food for the higher-ranked Calamity.
"Hmmm..." Oby hummed, rubbing his chin as he was in thought, "There's a possibility The Administrator wants to change the trial into the city defense. Maybe that's why they added more participants for the trial..."
Right before the trial started, there was a little change for the trial. The participants for the trials were doubled and also more times for the trial.
"So what will happen when we fail to defend the city?" That was the thing he was most curious about.
"Don't need to worry about it. If your point is enough, you will still advance to the next phase. It's just that you will lose the opportunity to get more materials from Calamity. This is a rare chance for you to find Calamity," Oby waved his hand.
The answer assured Tang Shaoyang that he would not be staying in this world even if the city defense ended up failing. That was a relief.
"Do you have any tips for me for the city defense? Something that I need to prepare, anything?"
Oby smirked when he heard the question. Of all the participants, Tang Shaoyang was the only one who had been asking for tips about the trial. It was a new experience for him because most of the participants already understood everything about the trial.
"Tips? Sure why not," Oby made a serious face, "First, make sure you get rid of your enemy! In city defense, Calamity is not only our enemy."
The moment Oby said that Tang Shaoyang understood what he meant. He fought a swarm of Calamity and also put his guard against the other participants. That was dangerous for sure.
"Second, potion. You will need potions, a lot of them, " As soon as Oby said that, he noticed something from Tang Shaoyang. He was well aware of what it was, "You are asking me for tips, and yet you are underestimating the city defense. You still don't know much about it, do you?"
