Chapter 768 Get Lost (Second Update)

In a fit of embarrassed anger, Golf didn’t bother with etiquette anymore, not even the basic pleasantries.

"It’s not!" Qu Jianlei turned and walked towards the door, raising his hand to close it.

"Heh," Golf sneered, "A dignified Rhodiola rosea Supreme, not even daring to admit your identity, isn’t it shameful?" 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"I really can’t stand people like you who can’t speak properly," Qu Jianlei paused his hand on the door, looking at the other person impatiently.

"You clearly know who I am, yet you keep babbling on. Is it so hard to get straight to the point?"

Anyway, since the other side came under the banner of the Divine Text Association, there must be a reason.

If the other side is willing to speak properly, he doesn’t mind listening to the reason—the truth is, he needs to grasp the external information.

But if they keep putting on airs, he wouldn’t bother to listen to the related news.

Hearing this, Golf’s mouth twitched. In this situation, he indeed had made a slight mistake.

The Divine Text Association had always been accustomed to being high and mighty, subconsciously forming certain habits.

Even when facing a Supreme, they had a habit of confirming the other person’s identity before speaking.

Of course, for today’s matter, it wasn’t just a subconscious behavior.

Golf also intended to imply: regardless of your reputation, it’s normal that we don’t recognize an out-of-nowhere emergence like you.

In general, his subconscious wanted to insult the other person a bit.

Unexpectedly, the other person was not only highly skilled but also had a sharp tongue.

Golf’s tongue was also sharp, but facing this situation, he really didn’t have a good explanation.

Could he outright say, "You’re a newly emerged Supreme, unworthy of our recognition"?

However, his earlier words already indicated that he had recognized the other person.

Anyway, it was somewhat awkward, but Golf had seen enough of the world, he could pretend not to hear.

The important thing was, he didn’t want to be led by the other’s topic, so he straightforwardly stated.

"I’m here to inform you on behalf of the Divine Text Association, you have been requisitioned."

"Get the hell out of here," upon hearing this, Qu Jianlei’s expression changed, and he cursed out loud.

"Requisition me? Whether it’s you or the Divine Text Association, let me ask... on what grounds?"

"You bunch of sneaky bastards only dare to bully honest folks, requisition me, you’re not worthy!"

His voice was extraordinarily loud, deliberately so, almost heard faintly a kilometer away.

At the mountain top is Niaoming Stream Manor, but they weren’t the only two groups around.

There were some small manors, small courtyards in the mountains, and quite a few people enjoying the sights.

The shouting of such a loud voice, many heard clearly, some even began recording the scene.

Even someone as composed as Golf’s face turned very ugly.

How can a Supreme like you curse like a shrew? Where’s your dignity?

He noted the insult to the Divine Text Association, but presently it wasn’t the right time to erupt.

Though the Divine Text Association was strong, fundamentally speaking, it was merely a research organization.

With the Imperial support and military cooperation, yet essentially, it was a research institution.

Its growth and power mainly stemmed from possessing ample resources and achievements.

Analyzing objectively, because the Supremes fawn over them, they, in turn, amass more resources.

This snowball effect made the Divine Text Association increasingly large and influential.

Of course, a large tree can’t avoid having dead branches, a large organization not only becomes bloated and inefficient but also breeds corruption.

These are side notes, anyway, it was with Imperial permission and indulgence that the Association developed this far.

Being the only organization qualified to openly research divine texts, it formed a de facto monopoly, showcasing the importance of systemic approval.

However, talking again about meeting a Rhodiola rosea who openly disregards them, the Divine Text Association can’t easily tear up the face and use brute force.

Although granted permission by the Empire, there are many other organizations within the Empire, they can’t openly trample all rules.

More bluntly, as a research institution, even with military backing, whether they’re qualified to "requisition" is arguable.

The main reason is, with too many smooth rides, arrogance is inadvertently cultivated.

Including Golf, before coming, he hadn’t considered whether the Divine Text Association had the qualification to requisition.

Strictly speaking, he hadn’t expected Rhodiola rosea to so openly express non-compliance.

He knew this guy was hard to deal with, he was somewhat prepared, but didn’t expect such defiance.

Who gave you the guts to dare curse the Divine Text Association so loudly?

However, very unfortunately, Golf didn’t have a good way to deal with it, would he loudly declare that the Divine Text Association has the power to requisition?

Using force is quite a good option, in the Awakened world, the bigger fist is the truth.

But Golf knew well, he might not be able to fight the other person—actually, this is sugarcoating it.

Strictly speaking, he couldn’t be an opponent, the other side has more than one Supreme, Rhodiola rosea is just one of them!

He could only with a dark face say, "We are under orders from the Anomalous Management Division, the requisition order for you comes from them!"

The Divine Text Association is a research institution, the Anomalous Management Division is a violent agency, are you afraid?
