Not long after everyone entered the portal, a group of ten men came to the base. This group was led by Lin Duan, who came to steal the reserve weapon Fan De talked about.
Lin Duan stood in the street as he motioned his subordinates to search the houses, 'If they don't lend the weapon, then we will take it,' he determined to not offend this group but he was forced to.
They had the people but they did not have a proper weapon to fight the monsters. Guns proved to be less effective, and it had limited ammo as well. They could not use the guns to fight the beast.
Ten minutes later, his nine subordinates came back with empty hands, "We can't find the weapon, Captain,"
Lin Duan furrowed his brows as he turned his head toward the main house. Fan De told him where Tang Shaoyang resided, "Have you checked that house?" His finger pointed to the house.
"We did, nothing there," one of his subordinates nodded and shook his head afterward.
"Huh!?" Lin Duan furrowed his brows in confusion. Fan De told him that there were around thirty sets of armor and weapons. He had seen all of them enter the portal with only armor and weapons, but they did not bring anything big for supply and reserve equipment.
"Search again! Search more houses!"
After what happened before, Tang Shaoyang did not leave his supplies and weapon behind again. He saved them in the inventory, each captain has reserve equipment in their inventory. What Lin Duan and his subordinates did was pointless.

Tang Shaoyang read the new objective for the fourth portal. It was different from the beforehand portal, and he had to wait for all participants before the game could start.
"The fort is blocked just like the HZ Bay, we can't go outside," Zhang Mengyao came to report. They had been here for a while. Since the game had not started, they wanted to scout the surrounding fort but she came back to report the fort was blocked by the barrier.
At this moment, Wei Xi rushed over, "I found something interesting, follow me!" He motioned them to follow.
Zhang Mengyao and Tang Shaoyang looked at each other before following him. He brought them into one building with a wooden sign. A lot of his subordinates gathered around the building, but they opened a path when their Boss came over.
Wei Xi pointed his finger to the sign with "Equipment Shop Lv2" written on it. Tang Shaoyang looked up and his lips curled upward. He indeed found something interesting.
"Have you tested it? How does this shop work?" Curious, he walked over next to Wei Xi while the latter pointed his thumb toward the closed wooden window. He was about to push the window open until a translucent screen appeared.
[Welcome to Equipment Shop Lv2! How may I help you?]
[1. Weapon]
[2. Armor]
He tapped [Weapon] that led to another option.
[Tier F] [Tier F+] [Tier E] [Tier E+] [Tier D]
His finger moved to tap [Tier D], the best tier in the shop. A list of weapons appeared in his eyes, [Sword], [Longsword], [Dagger], [Spear], [Bow], [Longbow], [Crossbow], and more.
He tapped [Sword] and a screen appeared.

The three same swords but each of them gave a different bonus attribute. He checked the other weapons and it was the same as the sword. The same name, same tier but a different attribute. Tang Shaoyang took the Destroyer out from the inventory.

[Destroyer]
Tier: E
Bonus Attribute: +15 Strength
[Upgradeable]

He was fond of his battle-ax despite lacking in performance.
—It's time to change your weapon. Did you forget about the last fight? Your woman with a better weapon could kill a stage-6 beast easier than you.
'I don't want to. I like Destroyer and this is the right weapon for me. I don't like a lighter weapon,' he shook his head at the suggestion, 'Moreover, the shop does not have a similar weapon to this one,' he had checked the listed weapon, none of them had a copy of his weapon. There was an ax but it had a short handle which he did not like.
—I actually wanted to teach you my sword technique. I am pondering whether my technique could be transformed into a skill, but how we are supposed to try that if you don't like a sword.
'Maybe we can try that if I find a big and heavy sword,' Tang Shaoyang chuckled, 'Oh, you can try to teach Wei Xi your sword technique, his class is Swordsman,'
—How I am supposed to teach him if I can't even communicate with him.
'Then let's see later, I might pick up a sword if you really want to teach me your sword technique, but not now,' while he was conversing with Zaneos, he noticed that he has 1.4 million Survival Coins.
"Oh, I have a lot of them," he blurted at the moment's notice.
—Maybe because you killed most of the Big Boss portals.
'Make sense,' he nodded and closed the screen. He did not have the interest to spend his coins as he turned around and tapped Wei Xi's shoulder, "Have fun with your shopping,"
"You don't want to buy a new weapon, Boss?" Wei Xi asked in surprise. Tang Shaoyang's Tier E weapon was not a secret, he thought his Boss would want to change the weapon.
Tang Shaoyang waved his hand as he walked away from the shop. Zhang Mengyao also followed him, her armor was decent and her weapon set was much better than the one sold in the Equipment Shop.
With the two big shots left, the Equipment Shop was swarmed by his subordinates. Tarriors' armor and weapon were Tier E while the Slave's armor and weapon were Tier F. They wanted to get better equipment before the battle started.
"I thought you were going to change your weapon," Zhang Mengyao expressed her thoughts. He gave all the better equipment to his subordinate and her, she thought he would buy a new one from the shop.
"There's no weapon that suits my taste, and Destroyer is still in good condition. I don't need a new weapon for now," Tang Shaoyang shook his head. The main building was smaller than the others, it was more like a small pagoda.
He pushed the door open, and the torches immediately lit up. A red carpet stretched from the entrance to the end of the pagoda, not that long, around five meters long. At the end of the carpet, there was a seat and a red flag behind the seat.
The seat was similar to a throne seat but it was plain with no ornament. He walked toward the seat and sat there.
Tang Shaoyang put his hand on his chin as he lazily looked toward the door. The right side of his lips curled upward.
Zhang Mengyao who was approaching Tang Shaoyang suddenly halted her steps. She looked at her man with her widened eyes. She did not know what it was, but she felt his aura changed.
It was not his usual wild and fierce aura, but something that made her heart thumping at the sight of him. It was not because of his charm that made her thumping, but something else.
She was forced to lower her head and there was an urge, telling her to kneel to the man. She stiffly walked closer to the seat while looking down.
Plop!
One of her knees fell, and when she was about to say something, Tang Shaoyang's surprised voice rang, "What are you doing!?"
Only after the voice that the aura vanished, and she felt less oppressive. Zhang Mengyao immediately stood up and looked toward Tang Shaoyang. She blinked her eyes a few times, the aura was now gone. Her man was back to his usual self.
'What? What was that just now!?'
