282: The Divine Messenger's Test, Enforcement Team Captain

Jiang Chuan had not expected Pike to bring him to Thailand.

Although Thailand was considered decent, among the Eastern countries, it was only average.

"A royal vehicle?"

When Jiang Chuan and Pike arrived at the airport, Pike led him outside. Seeing the royal vehicle parked there, and Pike asking him to get in and leave together, Jiang Chuan hadn't expected the Heavenly Lord Society to have ties with the Thai Royal Family.

The Royal Family of Thailand wielded considerable power throughout Thailand.

Jiang Chuan and Pike quickly rode in the royal vehicle directly into the palace. The two of them were arranged in the reception hall.

"Captain Pike, long time no see."

They did not wait long before a cheerful voice entered their ears, and then a young man was seen slowly approaching.

This young man was dressed very fashionably, and his appearance was similar to that of a Thai person. The only significant difference was that his eyes seemed filled with a sense of depth and world-weariness.

"Divine Envoy, it has indeed been a long time since we last met."

Pike looked at the young man before him and couldn't help but smile as he greeted him.

The Divine Envoy merely glanced at Jiang Chuan without engaging in much conversation with him. Instead, it sat directly in the main seat, looked toward Pike, and asked with a smile, "Captain Pike, may I ask the reason for your visit to Thailand this time?"

"Divine Envoy, I am about to leave the Eastern Enforcement Squad. Cang Long will replace me as the Captain of the Law Enforcement Team. He will cooperate with you to complete all the tasks you assign."

Upon hearing the Divine Envoy's words, Pike stated the purpose of their visit without hesitation.

"Oh? I wonder if he is capable of completing the tasks I assign?"

The Divine Envoy's expression remained calm upon hearing Pike's words, having clearly anticipated this outcome, but it still harbored doubts regarding Jiang Chuan's strength.

"Divine Envoy, if you doubt his strength, you can certainly test him."

Pike understood the Divine Envoy's implication, smiled, and then offered this suggestion.

"This method is excellent."

The Divine Envoy nodded in satisfaction upon hearing Pike's words, then accepted the proposal with a smile.

"Follow me."

The Divine Envoy had no intention of wasting more time. Since it needed to ascertain Jiang Chuan's strength, they naturally had to leave and proceed to the testing grounds.

"Alright."

Pike smiled and agreed to the Divine Envoy's request, calling on Jiang Chuan beside him to leave the area together.

"The upcoming challenge is the Divine Envoy's test for you. Whether you become the Captain of the Law Enforcement Team depends entirely on your own strength. If your abilities fail to gain the Divine Envoy's approval, you will not be able to become the Captain of the Law Enforcement Team."

"I highly approve of your strength, and your abilities have also been recognized by the Heavenly Lord. Just don't disappoint us."

Pike and Jiang Chuan walked side by side. He patted Jiang Chuan's shoulder and spoke to him with a smile.

"Rest assured, Captain."

Jiang Chuan nodded solemnly upon hearing Pike's words, indicating that he would surely gain the Divine Envoy's approval and become the Captain of the Eastern Enforcement Squad.

The Divine Envoy led the two to the depths of the palace, to a place resembling an arena.

When they arrived, two people were still fighting fiercely inside the arena. Surrounding them were numerous Thai high officials and wealthy merchants, constantly shouting and cheering for the side they had bet on.

"Still this routine?"

Pike watched the Divine Envoy leading them to the arena, chuckled lightly, and shook his head.

"Captain, you know the situation?"

Jiang Chuan looked at Pike beside him and asked in confusion.

"Mhm, next the Divine Envoy will likely select the strongest gladiator to fight you. This is a fight to the death; only one person can walk out of the arena alive, so you must not show mercy."

Pike smiled as he spoke to Jiang Chuan. Since he was leaving soon, and his future status would be no less than that of a Divine Envoy—or perhaps even becoming one himself—he naturally wasn't worried about offending the Divine Envoy before them.

"I understand."

Jiang Chuan nodded in reply after hearing Pike's words.

The battle in the arena quickly determined the true winner and loser. The loser was immediately killed, while the winner, covered in wounds, returned inside the arena.

"Everyone, quiet down."

The Divine Envoy arrived at a high platform. It held a microphone, and its voice spread throughout the entire arena.

As the Divine Envoy's voice faded, everyone's attention was drawn to it, eager to hear what the Divine Envoy intended to say.

"Today, I have invited a special gladiator. He will challenge all the gladiators in our venue. You may place your bets now."

The Divine Envoy's cheerful voice quickly reached everyone's ears.

"One man against all the gladiators!"

"Now this is something worth watching. It seems the Prince intends to let us make a huge profit this time."

"Prince, I bet on the gladiator winning."

... As the Divine Envoy's voice fell, the high officials and wealthy businessmen in the entire arena instantly erupted into excitement. They all doubted Jiang Chuan, believing his strength was insufficient to take on all the gladiators.

"What is this?"

Pike's expression turned ugly upon hearing the Divine Envoy's words; he hadn't expected the Divine Envoy to make Jiang Chuan challenge all the gladiators alone.

Jiang Chuan heard the Divine Envoy's words, but the expression on his face did not change in the slightest.

He was extremely confident in his own strength; at worst, he would simply expose some of his true power.

"I'll go have a word with the Divine Envoy."

Pike told Jiang Chuan beside him, then walked grimly toward the Divine Envoy.

Although Jiang Chuan did not know the content of Pike and the Divine Envoy's conversation, he could hear them arguing with each other.

"You are still the Captain of the Law Enforcement Team, and your status is not yet equal to mine. You are responsible for doing whatever I dictate. If he wants to gain my approval, he must complete my test."

"Furthermore, the Fuck You you mentioned, although he is a member of the Heavenly Lord Society, he is not my superior. He cannot control me."

The Divine Envoy showed Pike no respect, speaking these words coldly.

"Fine, I understand."

Pike did not continue speaking after hearing the Divine Envoy's impolite words. He merely gave the Divine Envoy a deep look, then turned and returned to Jiang Chuan's side.

"I apologize, I couldn't get it to change its mind."

"Thank you, Captain. Rest assured, I will be fine. I am determined to secure the position of Captain of the Law Enforcement Team."

Jiang Chuan thanked Pike upon hearing his words, then laughed confidently.

He is determined to take the position of Captain of the Law Enforcement Team. Even if Jesus himself came, he wouldn't give it up. That's what he said!
