Wesley didn’t doubt Charlie’s caution in the slightest.
He replied promptly, “Understood, Master Wade. The entire copper mine has collapsed, and given the commotion today, it’s highly likely that the authorities will take it over for investigation. Even entering the scene to investigate and collect evidence won’t be easy!”
He continued, “I believe there are only two clues that the Warriors Den can potentially find. The first is if they try to sneak into the ruins of the copper mine or bribe officials to gain access to the short-range artillery bullets left behind. The second option is that they may be lucky enough to collect DNA samples from the soil in the subsidence area. This could help them confirm whether one of the Four Marshals is dead.”
Wesley added, “If they follow the lead of the close defense gun, they will only find clues leading to the Blackwater. However, any potential leads from the Blackwater have already been turned into a dead end by us. If the Warriors Den can’t find any leads, they may try to vent their anger on the Blackwater.”
Charlie smiled slightly and remarked, “That would be quite interesting. I believe this incident will be a memorable one. The Lord and the remaining Three Marshals will be shrouded in shadow for quite some time. They may have forgotten what it feels like to be afraid, but I will make sure to remind them.”
Wesley smiled back and added, “Master Wade, if they find out how the Marshal died, they will be scared out of their wits. They may even have nightmares.”
Charlie smiled again, as if favonovel.com had just thought of something, and instructed Wesley, “By the way, Wesley, you and all the soldiers of Dragon Temple who participated in the plan to overthrow the nest, should evacuate on the ship for the time being. Do not go to Syria in the near future, and make sure everyone leaves Cyprus. After the evacuation, avoid any involvement with Syria during this period, lest the Warriors Den focuses on Dragon Temple.”
Charlie expressed his thoughts, “Although the plan was executed beautifully, Dragon Temple’s overall strength compared to the Warriors Den is significantly weaker, and it’s not the time for a direct confrontation.”
Wesley quickly responded, “Understood, Mr. Wade. My team and I will stay on the boat. If you have any requests, please inform me, and we will come ashore from other countries to assist you.”
Charlie instructed, “You may proceed with the boat for now. After a few months, find a way to bid farewell to the sea. Additionally, I had previously asked you to send the most trustworthy and capable soldiers to Aurous Hill for further training. This time, we can arrange the training here in Aurous Hill. The venue is almost ready. When you arrive, focus on improving your cultivation.”
Wesley showed his respect and responded, “Of course, Master Wade. I will arrange to report to you in Aurous Hill at the end of August.”

At that moment, news of an explosion at a copper mine had reached the Cyprus officials. Upon arriving at the site, the staff and police were stunned by the horrifying scene before them.
They had seen mining areas collapse before, but nothing like this. This was not just a simple collapse, but an unprecedented major production accident.
Almost a thousand employees and their families were working and living in this mine, according to their estimates. It was a devastating sight.
