Chapter 720: Chapter 425: The Rectification Begins_2
However, Sun Master felt that such a price was worth it!
He instructed Wayne Malvin, "Take my name card and invite Benjamin Larkin to the East Prison Town department."
Wayne Malvin understood that there was more to what Sun Master was saying, so he asked, "What if he refuses to come?"
Sun Master’s eyes were deep and profound, "Capture him and bring him here."
"If he still doesn’t comply, execute him!"
For the first time, Wayne Malvin felt a chilling murderous aura emanating from Sun Master, which filled his heart with awe. It seemed that Sun Master had merely been toying with him back in the capital. At that time, Wayne could not sense this killer intent.
He bowed respectfully, "As you command!"
Owen Bertram said to the others, "Follow me back to the city."
Owen Bertram was eager to take action and thoroughly clean up the East Prison Town authorities! All previous plans to make as if he would make compromises and ingratiate himself with the morally corrupt Ronald Clan were now kicked away by Sun Master. Even if it meant taking on massive karma, he wanted to crush the Ronald Clan without any regrets!
...
Benjamin Larkin had always been hiding in Raleigh City, observing in secret. Aside from the first day Owen Bertram arrived, when he paid a visit, he had stayed in the shadows, watching.
As for Kim Dean’s identity, Benjamin Larkin had some guesses. He initially thought that Owen Bertram believed in Kim Dean, and as a result, he did not hold a high opinion of Sun Master. Unexpectedly, Sun Master had killed both Kim Dean and the Sixth Realm expert from Sang Island!
No matter how you looked at it, it seemed like Sun Master feigned trust in Kim Dean before luring him out of hiding, as if it were an ingenious plan!
Benjamin couldn’t help but look at Owen Bertram with new eyes. However, soon after that, Owen Bertram refused Omar Ronald’s proposal, and Benjamin Larkin again shook his head in secret, feeling that Sun Master had become somewhat "arrogant" and lacking in rationality.
A person in a position of power should be able to play political games. At this time, a temporary ceasefire with the Ronald Clan would be the right move, in order to buy time to seize control of the East Prison Town authority.
How could one be prideful and arrogant after just one victory, and not take the Ronald Clan seriously?
Therefore, Benjamin Larkin remained idle without any intention of approaching Owen Bertram further.
Until... Wayne Malvin appeared outside his residence, holding Sun Master’s name card and inviting him over. Benjamin Larkin pondered: Sun Master was giving him face by using the name card to personally invite him, rather than sending a direct order to summon him.
One has to know that on-paper, Owen Bertram was now the East Prison Town Commander, and Benjamin Larkin was his subordinate. There would be no issue in sending out a command to summon a subordinate.
By giving face, Owen Bertram indicated that as long as Benjamin went, he would still be considered an "ally", just like his previous relationship with Lin Ronald.
But if he went, it would be equivalent to accepting the olive branch extended by Owen Bertram, and he would be forced to confront the Ronald Clan together!
With deep roots, a beloved consort in the palace, and two sixth realms outside, the Ronald Clan had an absolute advantage over Owen Bertram in the eastern part of the Wood Dynasty. Benjamin Larkin didn’t have high hopes for Owen Bertram’s prospects in this struggle.
But if he didn’t go... Wayne Malvin, who was waiting outside the gate, had already shown his Fifth Great Realm presence, vague and ambiguous, seemingly both provocative and threatening.
Not to mention, he was also reminding Benjamin that his father was a Sixth Realm expert.
The matter of Ken joining the Summit Metropolitan Office was handled low-key, and Owen Bertram understood that with Ken’s status as a Guest Chieftain, he would not fully exert himself. Hence, there was no deliberate attempt to publicize the matter, and not many people knew about it.
Eventually, Benjamin Larkin changed into his official uniform and addressed Wayne Malvin with a salute, "Commander Wayne, please!"
No matter what, he would deal with this matter first. At worst, he could return to his slippery ways, playing both sides like before. If Owen Bertram forced him to fight the Ronald Clan, he could agree on the surface but sell Owen out to the Ronald Clan later.
Apparently Wayne Malvin still lacked some maturity. Seeing Benjamin Larkin come out, he revealed a smile and said, "Commander Larkin has made the right choice. Please!"
The two arrived at the East Prison Town department together, and the various forces in the city saw them. One after another, messages were transmitted through various channels.
Owen Bertram was waiting for Benjamin Larkin in the Main Hall of the department. Wayne Malvin brought him in, and Benjamin Larkin paid his respects. Owen Bertram waved his hand expressionlessly "Everyone else, leave."
Wayne Malvin and the others left, leaving only Sun Master and Benjamin Larkin in the grand and majestic hall. Then, Owen Bertram’s domain unfolded, sealing off the building.
Benjamin Larkin was taken aback in secret, thinking that Sun Master had some means as well.
Now that only the two of them were left, no third person would know what they had discussed. In the future, even if he wanted to join the Ronald Clan, they might not trust him completely. Who would know if he wasn’t Owen Bertram’s mole?
Owen Bertram looked at the Benjamin Larkin below him, gradually revealing a cold smile, "I have an order, and I wonder if Commander Larkin would be willing to carry it out."
Benjamin Larkin shivered. He hoped that Sun Master wouldn’t start with words close to the heart. As his subordinate, he wouldn’t dare disobey his commands. Was he planning as a Sixth Realm to get rid of him?
"As your subordinate, how would I dare not to execute your order, Master?"
"In that case... Commander Larkin, gather all of your Horizon Bureau personnel. I want to inspect them." Owen Bertram said indifferently.
Benjamin Larkin, full of doubts, didn’t understand what Owen Bertram was getting at. But he still honestly replied, "Master, I am in control of two Revere Lord Group and eight Prescott Groups under the East Prison Town authorities. They are not close to Raleigh City. I’m afraid there will be problems with the local area’s defenses if I gather them all..."
