I Am Unstoppable
Chapter 140

Chapter 140

Jonathan was stunned. He had heard of that military academy before. Jose was considered a godamongst mercenaries and was even dubbed the God of War. In the past, Jose had once gone to asmall country in Smealand and assassinated the rebel leader of an army that consisted of ten thousandsoldiers. On top of that, he had done it all by himself and using only his sword. As a result of thatincredible feat, Jose rose to fame.

The rebel leader he had assassinated was protected by a troop of armed soldiers in his barrack.Furthermore, there were tanks, cannons, and long-range missiles around the camp. The leader wasalso protected by a squad of elite guardsmen, every single one of them equipped with advancedweapons.

Despite those intimidating obstacles, Jose had entered the camp with nothing but his sword.

In this era of high technology, Jose still relied on his old-fashioned sword as if he was entering a noman's land. Such a daring move was mostly only seen in movies. However, Jose managed to bringfiction to life. The God of War lived up to his reputation.

Moreover, Jonathan knew that Jose's military academy had produced many excellent mercenaries andassassins.

He silently counted and named the external disciples of the Divine Realm. Didn't I use to look up to thelikes of Edward, Jose, and Jeremy?

Taking a deep breath, Jonathan said, “If the external disciples are that powerful, wouldn't that make theinner disciples even more terrifying?”

Mabel took a slice of mutton. The steam from the soup lingered in the air, causing her face to look a bithazy yet beautiful at the same time. After finishing the slice of mutton, she said, “The inner discipleshave always been mysterious. Few outsiders know about their identities. However, I know one ofthem.”

Jonathan's eyes lit up immediately. “Who is it?”

“Have you heard of the Demon Emperor?” Mabel asked.

Jonathan turned pale. “Don't tell me you're talking about the Demon Emperor, Tristan Cadman? Ithought he was just a legend.”

“No. The Demon Emperor isn't a legend. There are records of this person in our sixth division. Tristanled the rebellion of the rebel group, Holy Light, in the past. It took the combined forces of severaloutstanding inner disciples of the Divine Realm to capture him. The news of this incident spread likewildfire back then, though it was later covered up by the government. Hence, the version of the storyyou heard was merely hearsay. Tristan is also a disciple of the Divine Emperor,” Mabel said seriously.

Hearing her explanation, Jonathan wanted to surrender. It took him a long while to digest what he justheard. Then he probed, “Isn't Edward a disciple of House of Kung Fu? Why is he from Divine Realm aswell?”

“One thing you should know about martial artists, whether they're from Strikezone Martial Arts or anyother clan, is that anyone would be proud to be a part of Divine Realm. Edward fought hard to earn aspot in the organization after passing the test. He wouldn't have achieved such a lot of success withoutthe resources of Divine Realm.”

Jonathan finally understood. “What does that have to do with me? It's not like I have a powerfulbackground that would make Jeremy think twice before attacking me.”

“Okay, let me put it this way. Within Divine Realm, the disciples aren't allowed to fight each otherwithout permission. If you become an external disciple, Jeremy wouldn't dare to mess with you,” sheexplained.

Jonathan understood her intention. “So, you want me to join the outer circle of Divine Realm?”

“You're the Chosen One. If you manage to join Divine Realm, you'll even become their inner disciple.Your odds of winning in the future will increase massively. Besides, you can only reach the pinnacle ofyour cultivation after joining Divine Realm, as it's the pantheon amongst martial artists. Everyone isvying for a spot in the organization. Think of it like a prestigious university, where every alumna wouldaccomplish great things,” she explained at length.

Jonathan rubbed his nose and said, “If you put it like that, the only thing I need to worry about is notgetting accepted by the outer circle of Divine Realm, right?”

“Of course, it's not easy to get accepted. Let's pretend Divine Realm is Bellridge University, and you'reone of the top students competing for a spot in the university. There's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity infront of you. You have to seize it when the examiners come to Yaleview in a month. As long as youpass the test, you'll officially become an external disciple of Divine Realm.”

“What about you? Why don't you take the test?” Jonathan inquired.

Mabel rolled her eyes and said, “I'm a government official. How can I join Divine Realm?”

Jonathan thought about it. Well, she has a point. ”In other words, the only choice I have is to enter theouter circle of Divine Realm?” he asked.

Mabel said sternly, “Jonathan, I know you're a carefree person, and I guess you don't like meinterfering with your future either. I wouldn't say that this is the only route for you. If you have a bettersolution, I'll consider your opinion.”

Jonathan smiled bitterly at her words. It's not like I can think of a better way. However, she hit the nailon the head, as it's true that I don't like other people dictating my life.

Since there was no alternative, Jonathan could only follow Mabel's advice.

Furthermore, he knew Mabel's personality well. Despite her personal agenda, her behavior stemmedfrom her unwavering patriotism. Jonathan took a deep breath and asked, “Tell me about the test for theexternal disciples of Divine Realm. Is it difficult to pass?”

Seeing that Jonathan was no longer refusing her idea, Mabel let out a sigh of relief. “Of course, it's verytough to pass. But still, I have faith in you. Honestly, the most challenging part is the quota ofcandidates accepted to take the test. Divine Realm has very strict requirements for the candidates.Firstly, one must have a good family background. Secondly, there must be a referrer. This person playsa crucial role. If the external disciple creates problems in the future, the referrer will have to bear theresponsibility. Besides, the referrer must be of noble status. Thus, the referrers are usually cautiouswhen they're recommending candidates. Trust me, no one wants to provoke Divine Realm.”

Jonathan smiled wryly. “These two prerequisites are both things I lack the most. No one would believeme if I claimed to have a good family background. I don't even know who my parents are, let alone their

origins!”

“I'll take care of that issue for you,” Mabel promised.

“Well, thanks for helping me.” It was rare for Jonathan to act politely.

Sensing his depressed mood, Mabel asked, “Are you feeling unhappy with this arrangement?”

“Rest assured, Mabel. I'll follow your instructions. I'm only feeling rather displeased right now because Idon't get a say in this matter. Don't worry. I'll get used to it very soon.” Jonathan smiled bitterly.

Mabel let out a soft sigh. “Well, sometimes you have to compromise for the greater good. That's theharsh reality you must face. The day will come when you're finally strong enough to break free from thiscage. Then, you can live freely without constraints.”

“I know.”

The two of them chatted while drinking. In a flash, they finished a whole bottle of wine.

After drinking, Mabel's face was flushed red like a tomato. She looked adorable at that moment.

There was no trace of her usual commanding presence.

Mabel and Jonathan got up from the table when they were done.

Mabel stopped Jonathan from paying the bill. Smiling, she said, “How could I let you pay for the mealwhen you're a guest in Yaleview?” With that, she turned to Johnny. “Keep it on my tab. I'll pay it next

time.”

Johnny nodded. “Okay!”

Jonathan no longer insisted to pay as well.

Soon, the two of them left the alley.

It was already two o'clock in the morning.

There were many lighthouses and magnificent buildings in the distance.

The lighthouse that shone over the overpass illuminated the long and winding road at night.

Seeing that Mabel was quite drunk, Jonathan suggested, “I'll drive.”

Mabel readily agreed.

After getting into the car, he asked, “Where are we heading to now?”

“I have a house over in Appleton Residences. Just input the location into your GPS,” Mabel repliedwhile leaning against the seat with her eyes half-closed.

Jonathan hummed in reply and started the engine.

Mabel soon fell asleep. She slept peacefully in the moving car, her soft lips glimmering under thestreetlights. Sleeping soundly, she resembled the Sleeping Beauty, who would wake up after being

kissed by the prince.

Jonathan was transfixed by Mabel's appearance as he glanced at her through the rearview mirror.What a beautiful and special woman! Besides, she's just like Amber. They both live their lives to thefullest and love their country passionately. They're willing to fight for the well-being of the country'scitizens without asking anything in return. I wonder what kind of man is worthy of such an outstandingwoman like Mabel?

Getting lost in his reverie, Jonathan could not think of an answer.

Just then, a police officer suddenly appeared in front and signaled him to stop the car.

It turned out that a team of police was conducting spot checks around that area.

Jonathan could not help cursing his luck. I can't believe this is happening just when I decided to drinktoday. Why am I so unlucky?

He had forgotten how many times he had gotten away with drunk driving.

At this moment, he could only blame himself for tempting fate.

Jonathan reluctantly stopped the car. Just when he was about to step out of the car, a policemanapproached him humbly. “I'm sorry, sir! We didn't see clearly just now. You may pass without goingthrough the spot checks,” the officer said obsequiously.

Needless to say, Jonathan was bewildered by the officer's politeness. Then, he came to a suddenrealization. Oh, shoot! I'm driving a military vehicle right now! Besides, it belongs to the military zone of

Yaleview. No wonder the officer didn't dare to create trouble with me.

“Thank you for all your hard work!” Jonathan replied casually before driving away. Through the rearviewmirror, he could see the officer saluting him as he drove off.

That's the wonder of power. No wonder so many people are obsessed with it.

After arriving at Appleton Residences, Mabel woke up promptly and was mostly sober by now.

The truth was, even though she had drunk quite a lot, she would automatically sober up wheneverthere was an emergency.

“Did something happen on the road earlier?” she asked.

Nodding, Jonathan said, “That's right. The police were conducting spot checks. Fortunately, we'redriving a military vehicle.”

Mabel was slightly startled, but she did not say anything.

Then she swiped the access card, and the car entered the residential area.

While driving, Jonathan asked curiously, “Why aren't you saying anything?”

Mabel smiled faintly. “What's more to say? We did break the law earlier by driving under the influenceof alcohol. However, I can't blame the traffic police officer for letting us go just because of our statuseither, as that's the culture of our country. Anyway, there's no point for me to complain about that afterreaping the benefits, is there? So, I guess that's why I have nothing to say.”
