Chapter 260 - Head Of The NYPD
"Don\'t become arrogant just because you are one of the rising young cultivators in New York. I can get you crushed without lifting a finger" threatened the Major, who was infuriated by Adam\'s words.
Angela Maxwell\'s previous arrogant and entitled attitude, which had changed and improved, annoyed Adam, especially when she used it against non-cultivators.
There was no need to act arrogantly towards someone that had done nothing to you or wasn\'t your enemy.
Adam didn\'t have the time or patience to deal with the arrogant and ambitious Major, so the best way to quickly deal with him over the phone, was by crushing him with his own arrogance and ambition.
Against an innocent or defenceless individual, unless they had previously done something to harm him or someone else, Adam would not clash with them, but against someone like the Major, Adam enjoyed toying with them.
"First of all, you should treat your captains and subordinates more respectfully as they are doing more work than you and second of all...." said Adam before pausing.
"Do you want to die?" continued Adam, shocking and scaring Angela Valdez who sat beside him.
"You dared to threaten to kill me without any good reason and you are too arrogant for your own good. The large cultivation families of New York will kneel before me or stand beside me, so what can you possibly do to me" stated Adam.
The Major was shocked by Adam\'s confidence in his own power and capability as he began to regret trying to recruit and threaten Adam.
"How about you become my ally instead of my subordinate" offered the Major before being shouted at by Adam.
"I don\'t want your rubbish offers. Hurry up and pass me onto your superiors and also submit an official apology to that captain, otherwise, I will come for you" shouted Adam before ending the call.
Angela who was sat beside him was gobsmacked and was scared to talk to a captain, let alone a Major who was in charge of multiple captains and precincts.
However, despite her shock, she didn\'t think that Adam was in the wrong and was also touched by Adam sticking up for her captain and impressed by his dominance.
"Are you sure that was the right thing to do?" asked Angela, who knew that people in such high positions would usually have very high egos and wouldn\'t submit to others.
"The phone should ring soon if he knows what\'s good for him, otherwise, I will personally make sure that his head rolls," said Adam as he sat there with the phone on his lap and waited patiently.
Meanwhile, Major Carlson punched a hole in his desk and began smashing his office in a fit of rage.
"That bastard Adam Green dared to undermine and threaten me despite me being a Major. I have worked towards this position for decades and it wasn\'t for a kid cultivator to disrespect me" he shouted furiously.
Calming down, he knew he couldn\'t mess with Adam and other cultivators without being a cultivator himself or having connections with cultivators, so all he could do was do as Adam said.
"I will do as you said this time, but next time you will pay and I will make sure that you beg for forgiveness. Me, Major Carlson will soon become NYPD Head Carlson, then will begin forming connections with powerful cultivators within the military" he said to himself ambitiously.
Picking up his phone off the floor, he called the captain and through clenched teeth apologised and swallowed his pride, which shocked the captain.
\'It must have something to do with his talk with Adam\' assumed the captain who weirdly began to respect Adam.
After that, the Major went on to call the NYPD Head who answered his call quickly, thinking that it might be an emergency as he wouldn\'t usually receive direct phone calls from the Majors.
After passing on Angela Valdez\'s phone number to the NYPD Head, which was the phone that Adam had used to talk to the Major, the Major ended the call and returned to his duties.
Suppressing the hate and rage that he was feeling towards Adam, the Major moved on with his day, but held onto it in his heart and planned to get Adam back.
After a minute of Angela and Adam sitting silently on the bench, Angela Valdez\'s phone that rested on Adam\'s lap began to ring.
However what surprised them both was that the phone number was all zeros, which was unheard of and it was quite clear that it was someone in a powerful or secretive position that didn\'t want to reveal their phone number.
"Hello, is this Adam Green," asked a deep and mature voice after Adam answered the phone.
"Yes, is this the Head of the NYPD"
"Yes it is and let\'s get straight to business. I can only form an alliance and agreement with you and the NYPD, but as for police forces in other cities and the military, I cannot do that for you. However, I can pass on whatever you wish to them on your behalf" stated the NYPD Head.
"I would like that and would also appreciate you assisting me in forming an agreement with the military and the government as a whole, but in a year\'s time. For now, an agreement with the NYPD is enough"
"May I ask why you will need to wait a year?" asked the NYPD Head, who despite being above the Major in rank and power, was respectful and didn\'t judge Adam based on what he had heard.
"Well, I will be busy for one year and won\'t be making many appearances, but after a year I will be back and will be part of some big things" answered Adam, surprising Angela who sat beside him and the NYPD Head.
"That is interesting, but enough about that. Let\'s get into it. An alliance requires mutual benefit, so what is it that you want from the NYPD?" he asked directly.
