Chapter 2000: Chapter 1998: Organize a Trip
Thirty qualification certificates were issued, and Peter Brown wanted to see how many people would actually go.
With the establishment of the Hua Kingdom, especially since Peter Brown introduced the appointment of Generals, the national solidarity of the people has seen a substantial increase.
Peter Brown is truly excited now, as the Faith Star Planet is expanding every day, and a large amount of faith energy is being generated in the Elixir Sea.
However, what troubled Peter Brown were a few individuals like Benjamin Fisher who had received the qualification certificates and still had not provided any faith energy to him until now.
Sitting in the study room surrounded by stringent security, Peter Brown was now handling matters with the authority of an Emperor. Philips Williams and Francis Miller shared the power of the eunuchs, with Francis Miller managing internal affairs and Philips Williams handling external matters.
At this moment, Philips Williams stood respectfully before Peter Brown.
"Your Majesty, after our covert tracking, here are the findings regarding the personnel Your Majesty asked us to investigate."
Philips Williams handed the findings to Peter Brown, deeply shocked by what they had uncovered. The people that Peter Brown had ordered investigated indeed had various issues, something Philips Williams hadn’t anticipated.
"Start by telling me about Benjamin Fisher’s situation."
Peter Brown didn’t even look at the report and directly asked.
As for Benjamin Fisher, if it weren’t for the lack of faith energy being provided to him, Peter Brown would not have paid attention to such a character. After all, the man had always seemed fanatically loyal, a fervent supporter at first glance, and very conscientious in his work with no small achievements.
"Your Majesty, after continuous investigation, we’ve discovered a significant fact—Benjamin Fisher is actually an illegitimate son from the late emperor’s time spent abroad. The matter could not be made public, and under the late emperor’s suggestion, Benjamin Fisher’s career has been steadily advanced."
As Philips Williams spoke, he looked towards Peter Brown.
So that’s how it is!
In fact, Peter Brown wasn’t particularly concerned about whose illegitimate son Benjamin Fisher was. Even if he were from the Winchester clan, it wasn’t a big deal. However, Peter Brown had a feeling that Benjamin Fisher was not truly loyal to him and might even become a hazard for the Windsor Dynasty.
"What about the others?"
"They are very close to Benjamin Fisher and often engage in secret communications."
"Additionally, Your Majesty, I discovered in secret that Benjamin Fisher has connections with a Sect in the Flame Star Region called Skybreak Gate. As for Skybreak Gate, according to my Investigation, one of the Royal Clan members of the Winchester family has entered that Sect, and it appears Benjamin Fisher has established contact with that person from the Winchester clan."
Reporting this, Philips Williams felt he had been negligent. It was a matter Peter Brown was aware of, yet he hadn’t noticed it until Peter Brown asked for the investigation.
Peter Brown tapped the desk lightly; in the past, he wouldn’t have cared much about this, and letting it slide wouldn’t have made a difference. However, since he would eventually leave, he couldn’t allow such a threat to remain.
"They cannot remain!"
Peter Brown uttered those words.
"I understand," responded Philips Williams.
Peter Brown then looked at Philips Williams and said, "You know the consequences if something goes wrong!"
"I understand. It will be the doing of those from the Flame Star Region."
Peter Brown nodded slightly.
Watching Philips Williams walk out, Peter Brown shook his head inwardly. He was able to discern the true situation. If he hadn’t, they would naturally have entered the academy, and if Benjamin Fisher and the others were to grow stronger, they would certainly become a scourge for the Hua Kingdom.
After arranging with Philips Williams, Peter Brown summoned those who had shown up. These were the thirty people awarded with the qualification certificates. Peter wanted to see their intentions once more, especially the intentions of Benjamin Fisher and a few others. If they chose to give up going, Peter reckoned he might not do anything to them, but if they still intended to go, Peter wouldn’t mind getting rid of them.
The thirty individuals all stood there respectfully, and upon Peter Brown’s arrival, everyone prostrated themselves.
"Rise, all of you."
Peter Brown started to adopt the Emperor’s tone and mannerisms.
Once everyone stood up, Peter Brown said, "All sirs here have made contributions to our Hua Kingdom, and that’s why you were awarded the qualification certificates. Today, I would like to understand your thoughts: those who wish to proceed can go now. If you achieve success in your studies, it will be a significant contribution to Our Country."
Everyone praised Peter’s words for a while.
Jett Johnson was the first to speak: "This servant plans to give this qualification to my eldest son."
Sam Collins also said, "This servant has the same thought, granting it to my eldest son, and letting him go."
One after another, they voiced their comments.
Then, a General whom Peter Brown knew provided no faith energy said, "Your Majesty, the journey will definitely be fraught with hazards. This commander is willing to proceed—not only to provide protection but also with the hope of progressing and serving the Divine Nation afterwards."
Benjamin Fisher glanced at the others and said, "Your Majesty, this commander is willing to lead a team there. This time we must pass through the Flame Star Region, and I am concerned for everyone’s safety. I believe we should dispatch a team of 108 high-level guards to ensure a safe arrival; I ask Your Majesty to entrust this task to this commander."
One by one, they stood up and expressed their willingness to go, and even Benjamin Fisher announced, "This commander will give the qualification to my second son, and after providing protection, I will return."
The others lacking faith energy also made similar gestures.
To pass on the qualification to one’s son and come back after escorting them?
If Peter Brown had not discovered their situation, he might have truly believed them, but now he certainly didn’t think they were so well-intentioned.
Upon reflection, a shock went through Peter Brown’s heart. If he deployed a group of high-level guards and they conspired from within and without during their passage through the Flame Star Region, who knows if they might not betray the escorts, killing many. With those extra qualifications, they could even take them and go.
In an instant, Peter Brown almost figured out their intentions. Now, these few individuals warranted even more attention. If they really made it to the academy, they would become a latent threat to the Hua Kingdom, and they had to be eliminated.
Even though he had this thought in mind, Peter Brown still showed concern, saying, "Your points are very valid. How many people do you think we need to send?"
"Your Majesty, this commander believes that we need an expedition of at least a thousand people. There will certainly be a lot of competition along the way, and it’s crucial that we dispatch a large number of those with Star Rank positions." Benjamin Fisher added seriously.
