Capítulo 2036: Chapter 49: You’re Not Worthy!

“Haha. You, not good enough. Let your Captain come personally. I came here this time to challenge him.”

“You scoundrel, you actually want to challenge us? Do you think our Night Patrol is a joke?”

“Yes, no matter how strong, it’s just one person. If we join forces, we can easily defeat you.”

The Night Patrol Team Members gritted their teeth at Pierz, ready to get on stage together and defeat this outsider causing trouble.

“No need to take action, I’ll handle this.”

Just as they were all indignantly ready to jointly attack, a voice suddenly rang out.

“Eh? Ca-Captain?”

At this moment, everyone turned their heads to see a figure slowly walking out from behind the crowd.

This figure had appeared outside Pierz’s home a few days ago, and now he emerged from the Night Patrol team, which meant he was most likely the Night Patrol Team Leader.

And this guess was correct.

This person was indeed the Night Patrol Team Leader.

“Heh, I wondered what was going on today, people have disappeared to come play with a challenger?”

The Captain, seemingly nonchalant, slowly walked out of the crowd, looked around at Pierz, and casually spoke to those around him.

Influenced by his demeanor, the people around him calmed down as well.

“Yeah, this is our Captain. No matter how strong he is, he can’t compare to our Captain.”

“Haha, if Captain makes a move, it’s surely a win.”

“Captain, injure this outsider; otherwise, this type of person will surely come again.”

The Night Patrol Team Members had immense faith in their Captain.

In the field, Pierz’s heart tightened when the Captain appeared. He almost lost composure.

If it wasn’t for Jia Yan beside him, quietly encouraging him, Pierz’s expression might have turned ugly now.

He took a deep breath.

Jia Yan’s words echoed in his ears.

“Heh, I wondered who it was, Captain, did you enjoy watching from the sidelines? Now seeing I’ve wasted a lot of energy and possibly got injured, you dared to come out?”

Under Jia Yan’s aid and reminder, Pierz spoke these words.

“Scoundrel, does our Captain’s strength need such tactics?”

“Absolutely absurd, Captain, tell him you just got here.”

Upon hearing Pierz’s words, the Captain’s expression slightly soured.

He wanted to say he just arrived.

But doing so, the group of Night Patrol Team Members, who had seen him standing by for a long time, would know he was lying, reducing his authority instead.

“Hmph, you brat, I didn’t let you pass our Night Patrol assessment a while ago, and now you challenge us? Do you know that’s not very decent of you?”

The Night Patrol Captain coldly asked.

He didn’t directly respond, instead deflecting the issue elsewhere.

“I’m indecent? Haha, how did I hear that anyone can challenge the Night Patrol? As someone who failed the assessment, I’m fully entitled to challenge to express dissatisfaction with my results. If I win, you, as Captain, have to step down. Meaning, you’ve already stepped down.”

Pierz sneered further. He was right; in Giant City, such a Night Patrol team wasn’t much, and due to their substantial energy, they could easily form a small clique, often rejecting outsiders who wished to join them.

If rejected, the outsiders could challenge members, proving the Captain’s judgment poor or that he refused newcomers to protect their interests.

Currently, the Captain had done just that.

“Heh, you’re right, but you didn’t show this level of strength back then. Can I regard your actions as intentionally causing trouble for us?”

The Night Patrol Captain wasn’t naive and immediately retorted.

Being accused of refusing outsiders was a very dangerous charge.

So, he immediately rebutted.

Pierz didn’t engage much with what he said because it was the truth.

“Alright then, I’ve come to challenge. Now, are you personally confronting me? If you can defeat me, I won’t hold a grudge over earlier matters. But if you can’t, relinquish your Captain’s position to me. How about it?”

“Agreed.”

Their conversation finished, leaving the Night Patrol Team Members stunned.

“So this guy was aiming for our Captain’s position all along.”

“Bastard, he targeted the Captain’s position. No wonder when he came, he looked respectful, and now he’s like this. His past behavior was all an act.”

“It’s unbelievable; seems we’ve been fooled by this guy.”

The Night Patrol Team Members felt profound hostility toward Pierz’s words.

Because what Pierz said made it seem like the recent events were premeditated.

If Pierz knew their thoughts, he would surely give a wry smile.

Days ago, he wasn’t pretending. He was truly respectful, considering himself the weakest in the Night Patrol, and showed utter deference to everyone, offering small tokens to individuals of significant power.

Unfortunately, even those members who accepted his gifts mocked and eventually evicted him.

If not for these events, he wouldn’t have been driven to anger.

Especially since the current Captain accepted a small bribe but then made the test almost impossibly hard, under the guise of encouragement.

This was a significant reason he agreed to Jia Yan after hearing his challenge speech.

Having the chance to retaliate against someone who underestimated and cheated him was extremely satisfying.

“Haha, enough talk; since you’re revealing your strength now, you’ve clearly planned this. Fine, let’s not dwell on the past. If you truly defeat me, I’ll concede. Why not let you have the Captain’s position?”

The Captain straightforwardly stated his willingness to give up the position.

As both understood, prolonging the conflict offers no benefit, as they both represent problematic entities.

The best approach was to consider each other’s offenses as nonexistent.

This was exactly the outcome Pierz desired.

“Okay.”

Pierz smiled and began his attack.

Against the Captain, he dared not underestimate him in the slightest, and he was fully following Jia Yan’s directions in his movements.

Thankfully, the Giant race was exceedingly strong, and their massive bodies in combat, every punch and kick was extremely swift; however, due to their size, despite Jia Yan’s instructions, Pierz had time to adjust.

It was like a creature hundreds of kilometers tall battling.

Though from Jia Yan’s perspective, their movements appeared slow, that pertains to their entire body. Observing just a fist, especially a specific part of the fist, was shockingly swift to the point of awe.

Under such circumstances, Jia Yan could guide the battle.
