Chapter 1774  The Void Gate

Tang Shaoyang was glad that the snow elves were not rejecting the idea of doing fusion with his spirits. He just needed to make sure that they did not fusion with the Void Creatures or Calamities. In his last attempt, he saw Commander Edson and Captain Barome approaching the house. Not wanting them to see what he did, he canceled the fusion quickly.

"That's for now. We will do it again once we get to our post!"

He turned and came out of the house to meet with Commander Edson. He did not mind having a spar with Commander Edson if they refused to put him in post zero.

"I have heard your request, and I will grant your request with one condition!" Edson was direct with his words.

"What's the condition?" Tang Shaoyang asked.

"You will be under my command until I am certain that your team is not a liability for the post zero!"

"Alright, let's do that." Tang Shaoyang agreed with the condition. It was a reasonable condition, and he understood that they still doubted him and his team. He just needed to convince Edson to gain more freedom in this place.

"Follow me. We will leave shortly." Edson was satisfied with the result. He expected the young man to refuse to be in his command, but it went smoothly. This young man administrator was kinda different than most administrators he met.

The distance from the frontier to post zero was far. The frontier was more like a main base for the Hurakan Kingdom. Commander Edson guided them to the hundred-meter-tall wall, where the train was waiting for them.

Tang Shaoyang used his Chaos Eyes to give a quick check on the wall. Even with the maximum range of his Chaos Eyes, he could not see the end of the wall. There was something else he noticed, the wall was curving as if the wall was circling the area. He might find the same wall on the other side of this area. The wall reminded him of the Great Wall in his country.

Edson seemed to notice him when he looked at the wall for too long, "It's as you suspected. It's more like a cage than a wall for a defense. The wall was designed to delay the Void Creatures from breaking our defense, and you will find more walls later."

That confirmed his suspicion that the wall was a circle with the Void Gate as the center. He sensed the train was vibrating, they were about to leave the frontier soon. Right before the train started, Edson threw them a mask.

"Wear the mask! You need it if you want to be stationed in post zero unless you want to die from the void poison!" He took out a sack of masks and handed them to the closest member.

Ira took the sack and distributed the masks. She had bought a lot of masks, but she still took the sack and the mask in her inventory would be a reserve for the team.

The mask was similar to the mask he saw in the movies for areas with nuclear radiation, but this one was more simple. Tang Shaoyang did not take the mask. He could pull out the void poison and turn it into Chaos Energy. In fact, the void poison might be a good resource for him to replenish his Chaos Energy to maintain the fusion and also the summon.

"Why?" Edson noticed and questioned Tang Shaoyang. He got a good impression of Tang Shaoyang at first until the young man refused the mask. What baffled him was that his subordinates did not try to persuade their captain of foolish action.

"Because I don't need them. The void poison doesn't work on me, and in fact, I can help you and your people to dispel the void poison." Tang Shaoyang explained.

Commander Edson furrowed his brow, but he indeed recalled that people with Void Elemental Energy were immune to the void poison. That meant the young man had Void Elemental Energy, but he did not remember anything about dispelling the void poison unless with an antidote.

"I see." He nodded and did not pursue it further.

The train departed not long after, and the train was faster than the one he rode from the Arnoit City. The journey was less than three minutes, and Tang Shaoyang finally got to see the infamous Void Gate.

The Void Gate was more like a torn space that connected to the Void Realm, not really a gate. The torn space was fifty meters wide, and one hundred meters high. The train was stopped exactly five hundred meters from the Void Gate, the post zero.

The door opened, and he sensed a gaze on him. Edson had his eyes on Tang Shaoyang but still did not believe that he would be fine in this contaminated area. He ignored the gaze and stepped out of the train. A frown formed on his forehead, not because the area was contaminated. It was more like an unpleasant smell.

Tang Shaoyang turned around and looked toward Commander Edson, "Do you mind if I get rid of the Void Energy in this post?"

The so-called void poison was the residual of the void energy from the Void Creature or the void energy that leaked through the Void Gate. He could get rid of the lingering void energy with his Absolute Chaos Domain and made sure the area was safe from further contamination.

For the first time, Commander Edson made a surprised expression. Of course, he knew there was a way to cleanse the area from the poison, but it was not worth the effort because it did not take a week for the area to be contaminated again. Instead of wasting their energy and effort on something like that, they decided to wear the mask instead.

"There's no need to waste your energy. The area will be contaminated in less than a week. It's not worth it." Edson shook his head even though he would like to breathe without the stuffy mask.

"There's no need to worry about that. This area will never be contaminated again."
