Chapter 723: Chapter 426: Involving Family Members_1

Benjamin Larkin left Raleigh City and hurried back to his jurisdiction to carry out Lord Algernon’s orders. Owen Bertram first conducted a "trial" of all the subordinates of the Horizon Bureau in Raleigh City at the East Prison Town department. It was no surprise that people like Ryan Ronald had to pay with their lives for their crimes!

In Raleigh City, there were originally 1,425 personnel belonging to the East Prison Town Comfort Office. Among them were four revered Lords, all of whom were beyond forgiveness. The remaining Prescotts, Chief Flags, Sucky Flags, and Military Officers were tried and executed, totaling 281!

David and Matthew arrived in time with their men, smoothly filling these vacancies. Lord Bertram finally truly controlled all departments of the Horizon Bureau in Raleigh City.

As for how Lord Bertram’s subordinates could integrate into it and hold onto their respective powers, it depended on their abilities - this was a process of survival of the fittest. If they performed well, they would have a bright future as Lord Bertram’s direct subordinates. If not, they would probably spend the rest of their lives stagnating in these positions.

After taking control of Raleigh City, Owen Bertram did not immediately rush to Benjamin Larkin’s area. Instead, he stayed for three days, secretly observing the effects of his actions.

The results were satisfying to Lord Bertram. Although some chaotic incidents still occurred among the Horizon Bureau in Raleigh City, the overall situation remained stable, and those Military Officers that "wore their guilt and merited their atonement" were diligent. This shows the importance of the overall atmosphere of an organization, or even a society.

Afterward, Lord Bertram headed straight for the two revered Lord areas under Benjamin Larkin’s control. After completing the trial in just two days, he rushed to the revered Lord’s area in Ville City.

Before Owen Bertram went to Benjamin Larkin’s territory, he had already ordered all the revered Lords of the East Prison Town Comfort Office to gather their subordinate Military Officers. After arriving at Benjamin Larkin’s side, he sent Leroy Baker and Felix together to the revered Lord’s area in Ville City to supervise the matter.

...

Ville City is also a large city in the eastern part of the Wood Dynasty. The nearby land is fertile, producing three harvests a year. Furthermore, there has always been a tradition of silkworm cultivation since ancient times, making it the largest silk production area in the Wood Dynasty.

Indeed, it is a "land of plenty".

Naturally, the revered Lord’s area in Ville City is also a fertile position. The revered Lord was Lin Ronald’s most favored concubine’s father, named Windstorm, an ambitious man who did not hesitate to offer his daughter in exchange for a better future.

When Lin Ronald got into trouble, Windstorm was initially uneasy. But when the Imperial Court did not convict Lin Ronald, Windstorm realized that his cheap son-in-law would be fine, and he could continue to strive!

Upon receiving Lord Bertram’s order, Windstorm scoffed with disdain and threw it aside, ignoring it.

When Leroy Baker and Felix rushed to the revered Lord’s area in Ville City, only an old Master came out to greet them, apologizing repeatedly, "Our Lord Algernon left for the bandit suppression ten days ago, and he has not returned yet. The two of you might as well stay while we have sent people to inform the Lord. However, the complex terrain of Thousand Star Lake, where the bandits are located, makes it difficult to find the Lord in a hurry. Please be patient."

Leroy Baker coldly said, "Tell Windstorm that he can’t avoid the inevitable. Let him carefully weigh his actions!"

The Master smiled thinly, "How can it be called avoidance? This is a public service. The two lords won’t blame him, will they?"

Leroy Baker didn’t bother saying anything more to this servant and followed Lord Bertram’s prior instructions, settling down in Ville City and secretly conducting investigations. The intelligence capabilities of Lord Bertram’s men greatly exceeded the Ronald Clan’s expectations, as they had the secret support of the Anker Palace and Brothel.

Windstorm was hiding in a brothel in the east of the city, secretly directing his response - he thought he was hiding well, but in less than half a day, Leroy Baker found him out.

After Owen Bertram arrived, the Master greeted him once again, but this time with a more elaborate reception. The Master brought out dozens of elderly, weak, sick, and disabled people from the revered Lord’s area to welcome the Commander Lord together outside the city.

Owen Bertram didn’t even wait for the Master to bring up the bandit suppression justification before casually saying, "Remove Windstorm’s position as the revered Lord of Ville Garrison, take his roster, and expel him from the Horizon Bureau. From now on, he is not a member of our Horizon Bureau. If he dares to act under the name of the Horizon Bureau again, it’s a capital offense!"

"Yes!" the soldiers shouted in unison.

At this moment, Lord Bertram’s men were strong and powerful. This unison response frightened the Master and tens of shrimp soldiers behind him, making their faces change color and tremble like chaff.

The Master stood up indignantly and protested, "Lord, this is unfair! What has our revered Lord done wrong? On what grounds do you want to remove his position? Could it be that the vast East Prison Town Comfort Office can be decided by your preferences alone?"

Owen Bertram deliberately looked puzzled, "Who is this person?"

Leroy Baker automatically pitched in, "He is Windstorm’s Master."

"Oh, Windstorm is no longer a member of our Horizon Bureau. What does this person have to do with our Horizon Bureau? Since there’s no connection, why is he still standing here?"

Leroy Baker immediately shouted, "Come on, our Horizon Bureau is a confidential office of the Imperial Court. All irrelevant personnel, get them all out of here!"

"Moreover, there is no place for him in the revered Lord’s area either. Any belongings he has left in the revered Lord’s area, throw them all out!"

Immediately, several Military Officers under Matthew’s command, like wolves and tigers, rushed forward, grabbed the Master like a little chick, and directly rushed into the revered Lord’s area, throwing all of the Master’s belongings onto the street!
