Chapter 369: Chapter 330 - Nearly Plucked Bald (Three in One)_4

Owen Bertram sat down, a bit tense as he looked at the food in his bowl: "Nine-leaved Fern?"

Ava Bertram pouted: "Elder brother still doesn’t trust me."

Owen Bertram laughed, bracing himself to pick up the bowl and try a bite. Indeed, the food tasted exactly as it smelled — delicious! He cast aside all of his worries, gorging himself on the meal as his sister finally broke into a happy smile.

The scrumptious aroma floated out of the siblings’ courtyard. Rachel and Emma Scott among others smelled it, and out of curiosity, they followed the scent. They saw Ethereal Devin and a group of military officers squatting at the entrance of the courtyard, greedily sniffing the fragrant smell.

Rachel was puzzled: "What is Chief Flag Devin doing?"

Ethereal Devin sighed: "We can’t eat it, so the least we can do is smell it."

Rachel laughed, ready to knock on the door and go in. Ethereal Devin quickly stopped her: "Don’t go in now, Missy’s spoon doesn’t discriminate!"

Seeing Rachel’s disbelief, Ethereal Devin seriously recounted to her what had happened before, ending with: "As of now, the only ones worthy of eating Missy’s food are Mayor Devin, Baron Prescott, Master Morgan, and Bennett Basil."

"Anyone else, who dares to enter during mealtime, will definitely be chased out by Missy’s spoon—one must not underestimate this. Missy is a divine person. Despite her lack of cultivation, no one has been able to dodge her spoon!"

After thinking for a moment, Rachel gracefully left, but she couldn’t stop shooting fleeting glances at Emma Scott, which annoyed Emma: "What are you looking at?"

Rachel responded seriously: "Vanessa Thoughts of Shadow has been approved by the lord’s younger sister and can eat her cooking!"

Emma Scott looked baffled: "So what?"

Rachel just shook her head and didn’t say more. What a simple-minded girl.

In Emma Scott’s mind, Rachel was the one who was odd: This self-important fellow always talks nonsense.

...

The two positions of Prescott in Candance County and Japonica County must be secured. Candance County was left to Matthew, but Owen Bertram still had to choose another commander for Japonica County.

It was predictable that even if Bertram himself were to be promoted to commanding adviser, Rodney would not admit defeat nor back down.

If Bertram was the backbone of Copper Gorge which kept Abner Lane at bay, then Candance County and Japonica County, in turn, were his support. If Bertram was guarding Copper Gorge at the front, the stability of the rear must also be ensured.

Originally, Owen’s plan was to pick two people who were quite familiar with the Horizon Bureau’s situation. However, after choosing Matthew, he reconsidered: Candance and Japonica could provide mutual support to buffer each other.

Matthew had a wealth of experience and in-depth knowledge of the Horizon Bureau, but he himself was somewhat lacking in strength. Hence, he could arrange for a strong cultivation expert to be in charge of Japonica County.

Then, Owen Bertram retreated to his Summit guard post, outlining a rule for Verna: She could only pick three leaves from the fern each day.

You saw how bald you made my fern!

Next, he cultivated another "Poison Shadow Oak" in the backyard, even more advanced than the one he gifted Emma Scott. Owen Bertram called it the "Heaven Reaching Oak" based on its higher potency.

Now in the backyard, there were three spirit plants — the fern, the Soldier Blood Vine, and the Heaven Reaching Oak. He could take the Heaven Reaching Oak with him anytime now.

The fern once again demonstrated its repellant ability, forcing the Heaven Reaching Oak dozens of meters away. Owen then had to expand his backyard while envisioning the future expansion of the Summit Command Post on the guard post’s side.

Another task was to forge Divine Heavenly Soldiers, incorporating self-repairing abilities taken from Mulberry-armored people.

As for the Mechanism Beehive Fort, Owen Bertram also prepared to forge his own. Starting from scratch entirely based on his ideas, it would be even more comprehensive and complete than Rachel’s. Besides the Gatling Version of Slaying God Breaker and Poison Sting Edition Spiritual Pomegranate Sniper for its long-range Magic Instrument, Owen had some other ideas, but he decided to put them aside for now.

It was a large project and couldn’t be completed in a short time.

During this time, Owen Bertram sneaked into the Iron Spear Underground Palace. He only dared to observe from outside before retreating cautiously.

Just like that, a few more days passed unknowingly. The Horizon Bureau’s General Office issued a public document to the six counties upstream of Summit: The Summit Commander Office was now promoted to Summit Command Post!
