Li Yao and the other two closely followed.
After five minutes had passed,
they once again arrived at the "Enforcer for All Tribesâ" office.
Their mood had completely changed.
The first time, they had felt an uncontrollable sense of helplessness and confusion. Everyone was unsure if they could "survive against all odds" and find a way for civilization to thrive.
But this time, they were determined to succeed!
They were filled with confidence in Chen Yuâs brother!
Perhaps many years from now, when the Transcendent realm still exists, even the most down-and-out Aspiring Transcendants, when discussing Chen Yuâs brotherâs grandeur with other races, would proudly raise their thumbs...
Every person took their place in line, and under the young man with the duckbill hatâs lead, they respectfully saluted the figure behind the desk.
"*****," the young manâs voice trembled.
"Speak in the Silver language," the Civet-Like Enforcer spoke in its fluent human tongue without looking up, continuing to go through the paperwork, "Have you prepared the item I requested."
"Your Honor, itâs here," the young man said as he lifted a lavishly decorated brocade box high with both hands.
The box, under the chandelierâs illumination, seemed to reflect a bewildering brilliance.
"I want something big, something imposing. Donât give me those tiny little nothings like last time."
Everyone: "..."
"Your Honor, this time, it will certainly satisfy you," the youth stepped forward, "Please inspect it!"
"Eh?" Hearing the confidence in the young manâs tone, the Civet-Like Enforcer looked up with interest and sized him up for a moment with its claw hooked, "Bring it here for a look."
"Yes!"
The young man stood tall, striving to be neither humble nor arrogant.
Step by step, he walked over to the desk and solemnly handed the brocade box to the Enforcer.
"Whoa!" the Civet-Like Enforcer exclaimed with curiosity, "The box is indeed sizeable."
The young man smiled, "I trust whatâs inside will not disappoint you either."
Without expressing approval or disapproval, the Civet-Like Enforcer put down its pen, examined the box carefully, and slowly opened the lid.
In an instant!
A burst of colorful light bloomed!
Nearly blinding the Enforcerâs eyes.
"Heh heh." From within the crowd, the long-haired man flicked his bangs with pride, "What do you think? Iâm the one who installed the rotating light inside the box. Itâs LED."
Chen Yu: "..."
Constricting its pupils, the Civet-Like Enforcer quickly adapted to the light and saw the contents of the box clearly.
Heart racing!
It looked up in disbelief at the young man with the duckbill hat, "Are you trying to fool me with the Mammoth raceâs Divine Artifact?!"
"Itâs not from the Mammoth tribe." The youth stood proudly, "This is our human raceâs own!"
That bold and valiant spirit was as if it had been carved right out of him.
"You want to repeat that?" the Civet-Like Enforcer said angrily.
"I personally witnessed my kin remove it from their own body," the youth swore with a finger raised, "If thereâs any deception, youâre welcome to extinguish our human race yourself!"
"...Impossible..." the Civet-Like Enforcer scratched its head in a daze, its eyes empty and fixated on the object in the box.
Even the "Ancestral Documents" that had been unearthed did not document such size.
How could humanity, after being in decline for tens of thousands of years, produce such a Divine Artifact?
"Hahahahaââ"
A burst of laughter suddenly filled the vast office.
Then, it quickly abated.
The Civet-Like Enforcer snapped back to reality and looked toward the source of the laughter, puzzled, "Why do you laugh?"
"Nothing." Chen Yu waved his hand, "I just remembered something funny. Haha... um."
"Your Honor." The youth hurriedly bowed before Chen Yu could speak any further, inquiring, "Are you satisfied with what weâve provided this time?"
"Um..." The Civet-Like Enforcer hesitated, observing the contents of the box intently, "Satisfactory... It seems very satisfactory. But youâre aware of the consequences of deceiving me."
"I wouldnât dare," the youth bowed his head.
"Snap!"
Closing the box, the Civet-Like Enforcer turned back to the youth, its whiskers twitching, "Itâs exceptional beyond belief, and beyond my expectations. Iâm very fond of it."
Upon these words, Li Yao, the plump neighbor, and the long-haired man were instantly overjoyed.
The young man with the duckbill hat got so excited that he wet himself, "Then about the war authorization document you mentioned before..."
"No problem!" The Civet-Like Enforcer put away the brocade box, "Consideration for the authority granted, extension of half a month."
"..."
"..."
"Just... just this much?" The youth was stunned.
"Something wrong?" the Civet-Like Enforcer looked puzzled.
"You said last time..." the youth stammered, "Change... to change the scale of the war..."
"It seems I did mention that," the Civet-Like Enforcer nodded, "But I also emphasized. Only under the condition of me being exceptionally satisfied, would I go further to assist you."
"The size weâve given you now, are you not satisfied with it?"
"Itâs somewhat satisfactory," the Civet-Like Enforcer licked its lips. Your next chapter is on NovelBin.Côm
Including the young man,
everyone in the office suddenly looked gloomy.
They felt they had been deceived.@@novelbin@@
After all, it was such a large one.
Yet it only managed to earn them half a monthâs delay...
The young man with the duckbill hat was not content, holding back his anger, he said, "Your Honor, you..."
"No buts," the Civet-Like Enforcer interrupted flatly, its smile strange, "You could bring a second one early."
"Thatâs impossible," the youth despaired.
"Thereâs no rush this time," the Civet-Like Enforcer waved its paw carelessly, "Didnât I give you a half-month extension? Find another within half a month. I might then fancy a thorough examination."
Upon hearing this, the plump neighbor and others held their breath, not daring to utter a word.
The youth, however, tried to remain calm, almost pleadingly saying, "Your Honor, what weâve given you this time is already the limit of what we could find. Even if we search again... return to our human dominion, it would be very difficult to find anything more imposing."
"Very well-done in just three days," the Civet-Like Enforcer was unconcerned, "With half a month this time, it will definitely be no problem."
