493: Chapter 362: Try Again with a Different Position _2 493: Chapter 362: Try Again with a Different Position _2 Owen Bertram bargained with Brother, not in a hurry since there were still days until the second round of assessnt, but Brother was already drooling in eagerness.
The other Tier-6 Magical Instrunt Colby Dominic offered was an ancient bronze disc, known as “Sky Dew”.
With a special Great Formation in coordination, the instrunt was placed at the center of the formation, and every three days, a drop of “Heavenly Dew” can be condensed.
When used to irrigate Spiritual dicine and Spirit Plant, each drop is equivalent to ten years of effectiveness!
In other words, if all goes well, a hundred-year-old spiritual dicine can be cultivated in just a month.
Moreover, this “Heavenly Dew” can also be drunk directly as spiritual pills, replenishing vital energy, enhancing cultivation, and healing injuries, etc.
The only problem is that the materials consud by the Great Formation are too expensive…
Owen Bertram had a use for this, so he didn’t intend to feed it to Brother for now.
While Elder Brother and Brother were still “bargaining”, Alexia couldn’t wait and entangled Elder Brother to go out and play with her every day.
And then with playing as an excuse, she went out to eat.
Street snacks and restaurant banquets were not missed when she saw them.
After satisfying Verna that day, Owen Bertram rembered that his family had a business in the capital, so he took Verna to take a look.
On the way back, they passed by the Academy Yard, where the road was a bit congested.
As their carriage slowly passed, Owen Bertram opened the window to see a long queue on the street, waiting outside an academy.
There was a banner hanging in front of the academy’s entrance, with four big flying characters: Amanda Academy.
“Cultivators buying questions.”
However, the queue didn’t move for a long ti.
As Owen Bertram’s carriage passed, a group of people ca out of the academy.
The middle-aged man leading them was dressed in silk and satin without any scholarly air but was full of copper stench and arrogance.
His n carried a large box behind him.
The middle-aged man stood with his hands on his hips, shouting to the cultivators in line: “Don’t push, co one by one, 50,000 Lingshi each, throw the Lingshi directly into the box.”
This box was probably a treasure similar to the Storage Brocade Pouch, with a huge interior.
He stood next to the box, shouting out loud: “You little thieving rat!
You dare to steal from my brother-in-law’s house, but you dare not co to my Amanda Academy?”
“See for yourself, I put the proceeds from selling questions in this box and store it in my academy.
Co and steal it, you rat!
I’ll even look down on you if you don’t!”
“I, your grandfather, am just that arrogant.
What can you do to ?
I know you don’t like , you don’t like my brother-in-law, but what’s the use?
Do you have that much ability?
My brother-in-law has the favor of the Divine, and your despicable tricks can’t hurt him a bit!”
“Who do you think you are?
My brother-in-law is the real big shot!
Don’t let us catch you, we’ll crush you like a bug!”
Owen Bertram heard them and looked out through the carriage window again, his eyes a bit cold.
He called out to a waiter from a nearby shop watching the excitent: “Does this Master do this every day?”
The waiter replied with a smile: “Yes, it’s been several days in a row.
This kind of street-scolding has beco a sight in our Academy Yard.”
Owen Bertram silently closed the carriage window, and Ferdinand advised: “Master, don’t be impulsive.
This man just wants to provoke you with words, there must be an ambush in the Amanda Academy…”
Owen Bertram smiled faintly: “Don’t worry, I don’t want to make things difficult for Master Liam.”
Ferdinand just breathed a sigh of relief, only to hear his master say: “Let’s find another way to deal with them.”
…
That evening, Owen Bertram invited Andrew Oamond: “I have two things to ask for Mr.
Oamond’s help.” Andrew Oamond glared: “It’s a stranger for Master to be so polite!”
Owen Bertram apologized with a smile and went straight to the point: “First, please help find out what the possible questions for the second round of the Dragon and Snake List are – this is considered as misuse of resources, so I just pretended to be polite.
If Mr.
Oamond thinks it’s inappropriate, you can refuse.”
Owen Bertram could buy the questions directly, but he didn’t want to!
As for how to find out…
secretly gather clues, such as the recent overall price increases of cultivation resources in the capital, the shortage of certain types of magical instrunts, etc.
By summarizing and analyzing these clues, the topic of the second round can be narrowed down to a very narrow range.
In fact, during the first round, even if they didn’t buy the questions, by following this thod and finding out that a large number of cultivators were secretly seeking the security route map of the Capital’s Military School Field, they could still know what the exam would be about.
However, to accomplish this, one must have a huge intelligence network at hand.
And those who have this network…
are not short of money.
Why not just buy the answers directly?
Only Master Owen was being stubborn and unwilling to spend the money!
Andrew Oamond nodded: “This can be done easily.” He didn’t care about any “misuse of resources” concerns.
“The second thing is to help find soone, a cultivator who is participating in the Dragon and Snake List this ti, nad Bart.”
Andrew Oamond carried out tasks extrely efficiently.
The next morning, he brought a man to see Owen Bertram, first letting him wait outside the courtyard, and then went in to speak to Owen Bertram.
“Master, you won’t believe what we found this ti!” Andrew Oamond rarely held suspense, showing an “extraordinary excitent” expression.
Owen Bertram poured him so tea: “Mr.
Oamond, tell quickly.”
“Based on the movents in the city these past few days, we found that the topic of the second round of assessnts may be related to Spirit Insects.” Andrew Oamond swallowed the tea in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and said, “That’s not the important part.
The key is that there have been frequent dealings between the Fifth Prince’s Secret Agents and Evans Graham’s family in this period of ti!
Do you know what this ans, Master?”
