Chapter 382: Chapter 334: Cave Lake Navy_1

Nathan Lane noted everything down, and then asked, "Please enlighten me, sir, how should these people redeem themselves through their crimes?"

"Let them hunt demon beings in the marginal area of the Extinction Domain. They can keep 10% of the harvest, and the rest must be handed over to my Summit Command Post.

Initially let them go on their own, and later incorporate our new recruits, so that they can help us train the soldiers."

Nathan Lane gave a thumbs up: "Brilliant, sir."

Owen Bertram glared at him: "Stop flattering with such shallow words."

After Nathan Lane left, Owen Bertram touched his chin awkwardly. When he used to flatter Abner Lane, it must have felt the same...

Owen Bertram’s will was carried out through Nathan Lane, and the prisoners cursed in their hearts, "Such a greedy officer!" He squeezed every last penny out of them.

But with their fate in the hands of others, and their confessions held by them, what could they do but comply? Going to the border with the Demon Clan? They would all die eventually. Hunting demon beings, especially those at the edge of the Extinction Domain, was actually an easy task for them. It was just that the officer’s exploitation was too cruel!

So after some hesitation, they all agreed in the end.

Of course, Owen Bertram wouldn’t let them go easily. There are many ways of prohibition in the Horizon Bureau. Once planted in their bodies, if they don’t listen to orders, they can choose any of the terrible methods like Spirit Vein Disconnection, Devil Flame Incineration, Spiritual Energy Self-Detonation, Soul Self-Harm... or choose multiple, and the Horizon Bureau can satisfy you.

After dealing with these people, Nathan Lane went to discuss borrowing from Topeka Hall.

Owen Bertram considered for a moment, and sent a document transferring Calvin over, giving him the task of fundraising in the Lake Mature Region, and speaking with great righteousness: "All of this is for the stability of the Imperial Court and for the protection of the people on both sides of Summit Command Office.

The officials and wealthy households in the Lake Mature Region are stingy with their money. My soldiers under my command are fighting deadly battles with demon beings in the Extinction Domain. We lack adequate Magical Instruments and Spiritual Pills, and all of them are running out. When the demon beings rampage, they will regret it!

The more Spirit Jade you can raise now, the more chances of survival our frontline soldiers will have!"

Calvin naturally cursed those pests of the country, and then went on his mission with great determination. Just relying on him would not be enough, Owen Bertram had other arrangements.

He patted Julian Gourd and asked his second brother, "Can you control that Crocodile Demon?"

Brother could naturally do it, but he was very reluctant to associate himself with the voices coming from the scales. He resisted a bit and asked, "What for?"

Owen Bertram explained in detail. In short, he wanted to cooperate with Calvin, and without harming the ordinary people, let the Crocodile Demon pretend to be a demon from Copper Gorge and create some trouble in the Lake Mature Region.

In addition to the Crocodile Demon, Owen Bertram also arranged for Magpie and Little Ghost Gregory Ryan to go as well.

Crocodile Demon in the water, Magpie in the sky, and Gregory Ryan on land - the three forces advancing together! There’s no way those officials and gentry wouldn’t be afraid!

Brother reluctantly agreed, but then said he hadn’t eaten well in a while.

Exhausted.

Weak.

If you give me the Spiritual Treasure Embryo to eat, I’ll work right away!

Owen Bertram wasn’t reluctant to give up the Spiritual Treasure Embryo, but he always felt it was ominous and didn’t dare to give it to Brother easily. He coaxed and made various promises, but Brother still refused to do it.

Owen Bertram suddenly had an idea: What about Tire-7 Demonic Beasts?

In Copper Gorge, we can join forces to hunt the injured Tire-7 Demonic Beast and give it to you to eat.

Little Loach’s eyes lit up: "Really?"

When did Elder Brother ever lie to you?

Deal!

Foolish Brother never asked if Elder Brother can kill a Tire-7 Demonic Beast, even one that was already seriously injured.

After arranging these matters, Owen Bertram didn’t just wait around at Looking Cloud Cliff, as preparations for defense near the Extinction Domain could be started first.

The Beacon Fire Spirit Platform was a new invention, which Owen Bertram and Darcy Darren developed together. However, the heavy crossbows mounted on the fortifications and the Memento Ling characters were readily available in the Wood Dynasty.

These Refining Diagram Records can be applied for from the Ministry of War Weapons Department, Owen Bertram submitted a report, and Adonis Dunn transferred it to the Ministry of Works. The Military Equipment Department was very cooperative, and directly told Owen Bertram: Not only will we provide Refining Diagram Records, we can also support a group of Artificers.

After Abner Lane wiped out Prince Henry, the Imperial Court established a new navy in Nine Caves Lake. There were four forts on the naval port built by the artificers of the Military Equipment Department, which should have been completed by now. Owen Bertram could take the documents from the Military Equipment Department and get these artificers from the naval port. They had various records of refining crossbows, cannons and even forts, and Memento Ling characters were naturally included.

This was not because of the accessibility of the imperial court offices, but because of Adonis Dunn’s influence.

Owen Bertram was overjoyed and immediately sent Darcy Darren with the documents to find the local navy for help.

He set off with Calvin, five days apart.

After a few days, Darcy Darren reported to Owen Bertram through the Communication Talisman: "Sir, the Cave Lake Navy won’t let the people go."

Owen Bertram asked: "Are the forts not finished yet?"

"They’re finished." Darcy Darren was also puzzled: "The navy people’s attitude is very cold."

Owen Bertram felt that he had chosen the wrong person for this errand and should have sent Old Fisher. He only thought that Darcy Darren was in the Fifth Great Realm and could better protect the safety of the artificers on the way, but neglected the fact: Darcy Darren had just joined the Horizon Bureau and was not familiar with inter-office affairs.
