Chapter 378: Chapter 333: A Penny Stumps Mr. Sun_1

When Owen Bertram received the information, he was also taken aback: Were things really that bad, could even such a simple task become a risky one?

After communicating with Lord and Sophia through Lord, Owen Bertrams finally got a clear understanding of the matter, and was quite surprised: It even had a Guardian Holy Beast?

Like a python but also a crocodile?

Wait, I remember the last time I fed my younger brother, he didn’t repay me. His excuse seemed to be something about a Crocodile Demon...

Owen Bertram gave Julian Gourd a slap and asked Little Loach. Little Loach had almost forgotten this affair... When his elder brother asked, he carefully pondered, it seemed that was indeed the case.

At that time, I was in the water helping my elder brother kill the Crocodile Demon, but the noise from the scales was getting louder and louder. I didn’t know what was going on. It was so annoying, I couldn’t take it anymore, had to swallow the Crocodile Demon while feeling disgusted, and then threw it towards the source of that sound...

Comparing the two, Owen Bertram roughly figured out the situation: The River God had no miracles, and the incidents of believers being attacked in the Summit region were gradually increasing. So, the person in charge must have held a certain kind of prayer ceremony, disturbing his younger sibling.

The Crocodile Demon that his younger sibling transformed and threw away actually became the current Guardian Holy Beast...

The person in charge probably didn’t expect that the prayer ceremony was so effective. Hence, he started setting up Divine Beast statues outside every River God Temple.

However, this person in charge had some vision, he didn’t incorporate this thing of the Demon Clan’s root into the River God Temple and made it a subordinate god of the River God by placing it in a side hall. Instead, he placed it at the entrance, only as a Guardian Holy Beast.

Sophia, on the other hand, complained to Lord quite a bit, then said, "These Five Thousand Spirit Jade were earned by me with all honesty, it’s very well deserved." She then said in an extreme tone of exhaustion, "Don’t come looking for me anymore, I really want to live a few more years, I can’t afford to keep this up."

How could a rebellious person like me become a repeat victim of your tricks, taking on one dangerous task after another? Sophia herself was very puzzled.

Owen Bertram still remembered her other identity: "Are you a servant of the Salome Tower?"

Sophia was instantly on guard: "What are you planning now?"

Lord said nonchalantly: "Are you content with just this for the rest of your life? Don’t you want to plan a proper future?"

Sophia, with an angry brow, rebuked: "What do you mean by that? Am I doing anything improper? You are looking down on me..."

It was rare for Lord to soften his tone: "You know that’s not what I mean. I just feel that this is a good opportunity for you, the person behind me has vast resources! He helped me, a ghost-like creature, to advance to Tire-5, and even Tire-6 is in sight for the future. As long as you handle things diligently, although there are some risks, it’s better to have a position in the Horizon Bureau than drifting aimlessly as you are now."

Sophia was ashamedly swayed again.

Didn’t she set a rule for herself: No more taking on his work?

If it were Sophia when she first entered the world, who dared to tell her that it was better to work at the Horizon Bureau than to freely wander the world? She would have spat on your face on the spot, and then drawn her sword for a fight.

But now... The experience really made her understand: It’s better to be Cultivating in Six Sects Door.

She took a deep breath: "You want me to infiltrate Salome Tower?"

Lord said without hesitation: "Your rank is too low, it’s of no value."

Sophia was not pleased: "My rank is not low, I am a tower pawn, one rank higher than the tower servant you mentioned."

Lord understood instantly: "Second to last."

Sophia: "..."

Lord said: "Alright, stop being wishy-washy with me. I, Lord, won’t trap you. What I need you to do is very simple, inform me of the news from the Salome Tower as soon as possible, you don’t need to do anything else."

The matter of the Spiritual Treasure Embryo has made Owen Bertram wary of the Salome Tower. They may not be ignorant of the malicious intentions of the Seventh Level.

"Fine." Sophia reluctantly agreed, then said, "You promise me, you won’t deceive me, and you will definitely let me into the Horizon Bureau."

"I promise." Lord agreed without hesitation.

Such cultivators as Sophia are different from the Lioyd Sect and the Scott Clan. They can’t prove their "clear conscience", and the Horizon Bureau valued this point the most. Otherwise, if they accept everyone, they would have long been infiltrated.

However, this identity issue, for the Director General, is completely insignificant.

Lord once again reassured Sophia for a while, and the two ended the conversation. Owen Bertram was startled to find that the two had unknowingly chatted for more than a shichen (2 hours).

Hmm, it seemed that he was enjoying chatting in disguise?

...

Owen Bertram was waiting at the Summit Guard Post, but he wasn’t idle. A series of orders were sent to the Prescott Group at Looking Cloud Cliff, and David faithfully executed his orders, making a series of arrangements around the Copper Gorge Extinction Domain.

After waiting for another five days, Rachel’s father, the Lioyd Sect Master, a peak expert of the Sixth Great Realm, Ferdinand, arrived at the Summit Guard Post.

Owen Bertram was not arrogant and didn’t want to personally visit a Tier-6 expert. He had already explained in his letter: Due to the urgency of the matters in the Copper Gorge, it was indeed inconvenient for him to leave his post.

Owen Bertram gave a grand welcome to the Tier-6 master of Mechanical Techniques, Ferdinand was quite satisfied. But his identity and Rachel were after all different, and Rachel was just one of his many sons. The fact that Rachel and Master Darren recognized Owen Bertram does not mean that the Lioyd Sect truly wanted to throw their lot in with the Summit Command Office.
