Chapter 1858: Chapter 674: Guard General and Deputy Marshal_2

Moreover, having such a lucrative subordinate serve as an Institute Head for just one Lower Realm is a waste. Capable talents should be placed in the most suitable positions to fully utilize their abilities! For example... earning more money for me.

Master Hale could vaguely guess the reason for Emperor Sebastian’s low-profile all this time. At a certain moment... if the scheme was successful, everyone would be overjoyed; but if it failed, at least he would have some wealth to fall back on and not be too miserable.

After thinking for a few days, Master Hale finally decided to call for Tobe Maxwell, asking him face-to-face, "The other Institute Heads think you’ve made a great contribution this time and should take charge of an institute. What do you think about that?"

Tobe Maxwell immediately replied with a bow, "I’ll obey your arrangements, sir."

Master Hale was quite satisfied with this answer, as it was meant to be a test. This young man’s attitude would decide whether he could become his trusted aide, lest he would be hard to control in the future.

"If you go to a Lower Realm to serve as its head, it sounds really good... But if we remove one head to replace him with you, he will definitely resent you." Master Hale casually said, emphasizing that he was "considering for his subordinates."

But he didn’t know Tobe Maxwell’s true identity, who was actually a major intelligence head in the Lower Realm and had even become the number one power figure in the Greater Wu!

Master Hale concealed Master Tavares’ suggestion to form a new institute while trying to curry favor... both of these goals were impossible to achieve with Tobe Maxwell.

Despite being the prestigious Immortal Venerable, his moves seemed rather amateurish in front of Tobe Maxwell.

Tobe Maxwell’s face showed a mix of anticipation and anxiety, and his micro-expressions were perfect. Master Hale smiled inwardly, believing that this newcomer from the Lower Realm would easily submit to him.

"In my Raising Hall, there are Six Armies, three of which are dedicated to the research of refining tools, alchemy, and crafting. I intend for you to serve as the Deputy Marshal, overseeing these three armies. How do you feel about that?"

Tobe was overjoyed. Bowing down, he said: "I am more than willing! Thank you for your cultivation, Master. I will do everything in my power and spare no effort to live up to your expectations!"

Master Hale smiled with satisfaction.

Why waste such a money-making talent in a Lower Realm? Why not keep them in his personal Six Armies to make money specifically for him? Moreover, the Six Armies were all under his control, so he could have complete control over this golden goose.

Master Hale also felt that he was truly wise and brilliant.

Things proceeded quickly when Master Hale personally issued the decree. Heavenly River and Blind Master Courtyards had been fighting over Tobe Maxwell for a few months without a clear winner; but a single word from Master Hale made both sides obediently give up. Tobe Maxwell was to move into Raising Hall the very same day.

Immortal King was reluctant to let him go, but on second thought... if Tobe was under his command, it might limit his capabilities and the king wouldn’t be able to make a move without damaging his reputation. If Tobe went to Immortal Venerable’s side, his aspirations could be realized, and the king would have more opportunities!

It is said that the Guard General of the Pill Army, one of the three armies, has long been infatuated with Fairy Xanthe. The king might as well play matchmaker for them, which would also help him obtain information from the Guard General...

The Guard General indeed had a crush on Fairy Xanthe, but before then, Immortal King had always treated him with disdain, thinking that he was up to no good and had lascivious intentions...

As Tobe Maxwell was moving, he wasn’t too attached to the old items, as Heaven’s Hanging Wall’s puzzles were all prepared by Immortal Venerable. He hadn’t lived in this little building for long, so Tobe didn’t feel much attachment to things there. However, after solving the first Heaven’s Hanging Wall puzzle, his popularity at Hiram Garden soared and he had many "friends" who exchanged gifts frequently.

Tobe Maxwell never stored these gifts in his storage space, but displayed them all on the Ancient Shelf. Whenever friends visited and saw his gifts displayed in a prominent place and heard him introduce them with a warm smile, they felt Tobe valued their friendship!

Regardless of how much interest was mixed into these so-called friendships and how fake the friendliness was, as long as they were associated with Tobe, no one had a bad word to say about him!

Unconsciously, people began to compete secretly. Everyone’s gifts were displayed, and if theirs was of lower value compared to the one next to it... No way! They had to find a way to send a more valuable one! That was Tobe Maxwell’s real goal.

As Tobe was packing up these gifts, King Monroe arrived. He had changed his clothes today and looked quite surprised when he walked into the room, "You’re moving? Let me help you."

Tobe was busy packing while King Monroe claimed to help but never actually assisted. King Monroe just paced back and forth several times with his hands behind his back, never actually lifting a finger.

Tobe rolled his eyes, "What do you really want?"

King Monroe straightened up, dusted off his robe, and anxiously thought: I’ve been dropping hints like crazy, and you still can’t see it? Tobe sneered, "You’re crazy." He went back to packing, but King Monroe jumped in front of him and pointed to the embroidery on his robe, "Can’t you see it? I’ve been promoted! Look, this is the robe of a Guard General!"
