Chapter 676: You Have Ten Minutes
A few days after the Hero Party dealt with the threat of the Tier-2 Dimensional Gate, the registration for the Dragon and Phoenix Tournament finally opened.
Countless Wanderers from the younger generation all flocked to the Sirius Continent, wanting to participate in this grand event.
The Capital City of the Ashford Clan, the Glory City, was jam-packed with people.
Almost all the hotels and other lodging establishments were fully booked. Wanderers who failed to secure some lodging were left with no choice but to either book one in the nearest city or camp in a designated area meant for such purposes.
The members of the Hero Party didn't need to register since they were already Seeded Candidates.
The only ones who needed to register on-site were Mikhail, Shasha, Sherry, and Stella.
Cristopher, Colbert, and the other Squad Captains were also going to register with the help of the Central Government.
"Are you all ready to go?" Thirteen asked.
The four teenagers nodded their heads, confirming that they were ready to leave.
Thirteen then took the lead, bringing them to the Military Helicopter provided for them by the Central Government, which would take them to Glory City.
It would only take them half an hour to reach their destination, which was already quite fast. Given Thirteen's prestige and influence, he believed that it wouldn't take long before the registration of the Wanderers related to him was completed.
Unfortunately, that wasn't the case.
When they arrived at the scene, the staff who was handling the registration politely asked him and his entourage to fall in line like everyone else.
Clearly, they were making things difficult for Zion, making him understand that within the territory of the Ashford Clan, he had to do as he was told.
Thirteen already half-expected that something like this would happen.
Because of that, he used his secret weapon.
"Tell your Patriarch he has ten minutes to let me finish my registration," Thirteen said to the staff. "Otherwise, the Mining Operation the Ashford Clan has in the Rigel Continent will be attacked by three Rank 9 Earth Dragons. If you think I'm bluffing, I'll make you understand who you're dealing with."
"Last two minutes."
Thirteen's words broke the Supervisor out of his daze, making him break into a sweat.
"P-Please come here, Sir," the Supervisor said in a respectful tone. "We have a special
registration booth for VIP Guests."
Thirteen nodded and followed the Supervisor inside the building.
Mikhail, Shasha, Sherry, and Stella followed behind him.
When they arrived at the venue, the teenage boy pushed a few buttons from his
communicator, while the staff was helping the others register.
"Cristopher, are you guys already on your way here?" Thirteen asked.
"Yes, Sir," Cristopher replied. "We'll be arriving in ten minutes."
"Good." Thirteen nodded. "I'll pick you up after you arrive."
The teenage boy then shifted his attention to the Supervisor and told him that his Squad Captains would be arriving soon, so he better accommodate them as well.
The Supervisor no longer dared to reject the teenage boy's orders and hurriedly commanded his people to receive the members from the 69th Battalion.
While this was happening, Claude Ashford, who was in his office, frowned after hearing the report of his agent, which he had assigned to monitor the Registration Venue.
"That brat sure knows how to get his way." Claude clicked his tongue in annoyance.
He still hadn't forgotten his little incident with Zion at the Auction House several months
ago.
That was the first time someone younger than him called him Peasant, and it truly made his liver itch.
