Chapter 362: Chapter 329: Promotion Strategy (Three in One)_1

Upon their arrival at the Prescott Group of Looking Cloud Cliff, Old Fisher, Vanessa Thoughts of Shadow, and Nathan Lane came to greet them because they had been contacted beforehand. Some of them had rushed back from Black-water County especially for this.

The first thing Owen Bertram did was to hand over the "outsiders" who had been locked up by the Immortal Binding Rope to Ethereal Devin, cautioning, "Take good care of them. They are not allowed to have any contact with the outside world!"

"Yes!" Ethereal Devin immediately shackled these people with the Horizon Bureau’s special fetters, assisted by the Military Officer, and then pushed them into the underground prison of the Prescott Group at Looking Cloud Cliff.

Owen Bertram introduced Rachel and Emma Scott to everyone and instructed Nathan Lane: "Arrange some lodging for everyone."

When the others saw that he had brought back another Emma Scott, they all remained emotionless and dared not say anything more. They merely observed Vanessa Thoughts of Shadow’s expressions stealthily. The two women, however, seemed oblivious and got along very well.

While Owen Bertram was at Copper Gorge, the outposts of the Horizon Bureau on both sides of the river were undergoing consolidation. This task was being handled by David and Old Fisher together, but progress was not smooth. As soon as Rachel, Emma Scott, and the others went to rest, Old Fisher immediately reported to Owen Bertram: "Commander Lord, there are a total of twenty-three outposts under your jurisdiction, and sixteen are willing to accept orders..."

Before Old Fisher could finish his sentence, an Order Talisman suddenly flew in from outside the window, swooping down in front of Owen Bertram with a swish. It emitted a spiritual light and projected an image of a coldly beautiful woman in military uniform. Scowling at Owen Bertram with her killer phoenix eyes, she demanded, "Summit Commander Owen Bertram, where’s the thing you owe me?"

Although it was their "first meeting," Owen Bertram knew very well that this was none other than Commander-in-Chief Liam of the Northern Prison.

The Order Talisman had only brought an illusion of Liam’s image. With just one question, the illusion disappeared. Owen Bertram curled his lips. You’re chasing debts too eagerly. I’ve only just returned, and you’re already on my doorstep.

He sorted out Sinclair Blacktail’s treasures, selected three Tire-5 Magic Weapons, and also organized a large bundle of Demon Clan treasure materials, Spiritual Pills, and Demon Hearts, and sent them into the Order Talisman. The talisman contained a small storage space. The talisman was pulled out and flew off into the sky.

Owen Bertram gestured to Old Fisher: "Let’s continue."

"The other seven have a cold attitude. They are all people who don’t know the score. I and the Feather Cavalry General can both take control, but without your command while you were in Copper Gorge, we couldn’t act arbitrarily."

Owen Bertram nodded slightly, pondering how to deal with it.

If it had been before, as Summit Commander he would only call upon his direct subordinates to gather at Looking Cloud Cliff and Black-water County, personally guard Copper Gorge and ignore the other outposts and the Prescott Groups.

If they couldn’t even guard Copper Gorge, what use could the strongest Prescott have, being only in the Third Great Boundary?

But now Owen Bertram had a different mindset. Now that he aspired to dominate, he had to build his own power. He would certainly seize control of all twenty-three outposts, ensuring they were as unified as a piece of iron.

"List those seven for me and investigate thoroughly their background and the forces behind them."

Old Fisher handed him the information: "It has been ready for a while."

Having glanced through it, Owen Bertram found that two of the Prescott Groups in Kai County were not really willing to obey his command, they were all direct subordinates of the Commandery Commander.

The Horizon Bureau had Commandery Commanders stationed in each county, overseeing the revered Lord and the Prescott within their jurisdictions, they were also called Commanders but their positions were one level lower than those of the chief commanders of the east, west, south, north, and central offices.

Being a Commandery Commander is still quite prestigious. Even for Abner Lane, replacing his Commandery Commanders was not easy.

Apart from Kai County, the situation of the other five Prescott Groups were more or less the same. They all had strong local forces backing them and didn’t want to give up their power.

Owen Bertram decided to start with these two Prescott Groups in Kai County; but for now, the most important thing was to give Emma Scott and Rachel their identities.

"Alright, you go rest first." He sent Old Fisher away and took out the Talisman to contact Abner Lane.

It was a while before Abner Lane’s somewhat tired voice came from the Talisman: "If you have anything to say, say it quickly. I’m busy with military affairs."

Owen Bertram skipped asking about the situation at the front and immediately mentioned the situation with the Lioyd Sect and the Scott Clan, and then added, "Lord, Emma Scott is of the Third Great Boundary, and she has dozens of people from the remaining Scott Clan under her command, including four of the Fourth Great Realm. It is essential to create at least one Prescott and four Officiants’ positions."

"Fourth son of the Lioyd Sect, Rachel, is of the Fourth Great Realm, and furthermore, she has a promising future due to her young age. Shouldn’t she at least get a revered Lord position? And there are those of the Fifth Great Realm under her. How should they be arranged?"

Abner Lane asked impatiently: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Abner Lane, who had been hassled for many years in the official circuit, knew as soon as Owen Bertram opened his mouth that this kid’s objective was not simply to secure an official position for his subordinates.

Owen Bertram chuckled and delivered an inexperienced flattery: "Lord, your vision is indeed as bright as a torch. My scheme cannot be hidden from you."

Abner Lane replied, "You didn’t plan to hide anything from me!"

"So I should just speak my mind?"

"If you have something to say, say it. If you want to fart, do it."

"The establishment of the Summit Commander Office is a little too low. I am only a revered Lord. Whether it is to command the original twenty-three Prescott Groups, liaise with the local officials on the two banks, or to suppress the new recruits, my status is somewhat insufficient."
