Chapter 732: Chapter 428: Battle of Wits and Courage _3

Under such circumstances, Lin Ronald had no choice but to agree.

From now on, the Sixth Great Realm of the Ronald Clan shall be led by Omar Ronald!

Having established this policy, the clan leader brought up another secret matter: "I didn’t want to feed the information about the Bug King back to the Red Race, but now that the Bug King is dead, we can share it with them.

However, the Red Race cannot just take our benefits for free. I will have someone send over all the intelligence we’ve collected regarding Owen Bertram along with it!"

Omar and Lin Ronald had no objections. These kind of ancient families tend to be blindly arrogant, thinking that no matter what enemies they ally with, they can always control them as "pawns" and confidently keep them in check.

Little do they know that by doing so, they might bring disaster upon themselves, and even bring their entire nation down with them!

...

After resolving the issue with Sharon Mansion’s revered Lord, Owen Bertram continued his "inspection" of the East Prison Town Comfort Office with his subordinates. However, he soon discovered that the resistance had suddenly decreased.

Originally, the revered Lords would always find various excuses to evade their duties, but now they obediently carried out their orders. Some even directly abandoned their posts, fleeing with their families.

Master Bertram would not let them off so easily; he directly issued arrest warrants for all who fled.

In secret, Master Bertram remained on guard against the Ronald Clan. In his view, such a huge family with two Sixth Realm masters at its helm would never give up so easily. They must be planning some secret schemes, even sending out Sixth Realm masters to fight him in order to save face.

However, as Master Bertram carried out his drastic reforms in the East Prison Town Comfort Office, sentencing the revered Lords, replacing those who committed heinous crimes with his own people, and gradually taking control of the entire East Prison Town Comfort Office, a month passed and the Ronald Clan remained quiet, showing no signs of action!

Master Bertram became even more vigilant, suspecting that the Ronald Clan was certainly brewing some big moves.

Later, it took Master Bertram two full months to visit all the offices under the jurisdiction of the East Prison Town Comfort Office. In the end, not only did he exhaust the 2,000 men sent by Master Lane, but he also found not enough of the 2,000 men he had originally planned to transfer from the Summit Metropolitan Office. He had to push the limits of his Summit Metropolitan Office and transfer another 1,000 men to barely meet his needs.

Nearly 70% of the old staff of the Summit Metropolitan Office were transferred! At the same time, a large number of new staff were recruited into the Summit Metropolitan Office. However, these newcomers were not familiar with their duties, causing the operations of the Summit Metropolitan Office to be less than smooth. Fortunately, there were the River God and the Ghost Zone secretly assisting in the area, so no major problems arose.

By now, Master Bertram can be said to have initially taken control of the East Prison Town Comfort Office. Among the original old staff, those who were unforgivable either died or fled, leaving only those who could be utilized. However, it was indeed only an "initial" control, sufficient to ensure that Master Bertram’s commands were smoothly issued and executed to a large extent, as well as ensuring that he would not be deceived by the collusion of local revered Lords and Prescotts.

But it was just "initial" control. The abilities of the 5,000 men sent by Owen Bertram vary, and not all of them can hold the local power, and there will be infighting and competition among these people.

For those "usable people" to truly become "useful people," there needs to be a process. Moreover, among these people, there will definitely be some ambitious ones who may not have had a chance before but are now ready to rise up in the chaos.

In short, the internal issues of the vast East Prison Town Comfort Office are extremely complex, and Master Bertram will never be careless, thinking that he has completely solved the problem of the East Prison Town Comfort Office.

His future work will be particularly heavy.

Both the East Prison Town Comfort Office and the Summit Metropolitan Office actually need Master Bertram to personally oversee them, and he truly feels a bit overwhelmed.

His actions in the East Prison Town Comfort Office have become widely known, and opinions on him in the Wood Dynasty vary. People dare not directly criticize a Sixth Realm Venerable, so the mainstream voices regarding Owen Bertram’s evaluations are: an unconventional Sixth Realm Venerable.

He can disregard the so-called customs and conventions of the Cultivation World that "Sixth Realm means immunity"; at first, he wanted to kill Lin Ronald, and later even possessed the singular record of killing a Sixth Realm Cultivator in a Fighting Techniques duel.

He can also ignore his own dignity as a Sixth Realm Venerable, personally inspect the entire East Prison Town Comfort Office, screening through each revered Lord and Prescott office, and even personally execute small cultivators below the Fourth Great Realm. Other Sixth Realm Venerables would feel it "demeaning"!

Does a Sixth Realm Venerable really need to be so hands-on in everything? How ridiculous.

So after much consideration, they gave the evaluation of being "unconventional."

But Master Bertram did not care much about his so-called reputation. After initially taking control of the East Prison Town Comfort Office, his first task was to summarize his gains from this operation, as the amount of confiscated property was enormous.

Master Lane had urged him several times, but Master Bertram was dragging his feet. It wasn’t that he was unwilling to give the money... Actually, the main reason was that he wanted to "outwit and outfight" his own superior!

He knew Abner and Leonard too well. They were both good men but also wholeheartedly devoted to the public good. Master Bertram was certain that if he were to give the twenty billion spirit jades willingly, these two men would immediately smell something fishy: the East Prison Town Comfort Office had made a huge gain this time!
