Almost immediately, the heavy machinery that was still excavating and drilling ceased operation.
They quickly began withdrawing from the subsidence area, following the orders of their superiors.
Upon witnessing this, Victor felt more at ease and immediately signaled for the others to evacuate.
Once they had met outside the copper mine, Victor deliberately asked the others, “Did you find any clues?”
To his surprise, they all shook their heads, their expressions a mix of disbelief and shock.
David Stone, Victor’s younger brother, spoke up, “Commander, I took a look inside the subsidence area, and it’s
now a complete ruin.
The difference between the center and the surrounding flat ground is over ten meters.
It’s impossible to investigate without heavy equipment.”
Another individual chimed in, “But they’re already removing the excavation tools, so they probably won’t be
continuing the investigation.”
Victor added, “I overheard their commander saying they’ve received orders to fill up the entire area within 72
hours.”
David sighed, “In this situation, without heavy equipment, it’s unlikely we’ll find any clues.
It’s also impossible for us to gather the necessary tools and continue the investigation, and once they fill this place
up, it’ll be even harder to find any evidence.”
Victor feigned melancholy, “There’s no way.
They’re evacuating everyone from the subsidence area, so we won’t be able to sneak in and find any clues.
Since they’re starting backfilling soon, there’s no point in staying here.
We should evacuate and wait for the Lord’s orders.”
Several individuals agreed, realizing that there was little else they could do.
They returned to their parked vehicles, with Victor opting to report to the Lord from his car.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce he was alone, Victor pulled out his phone and used a special contact software to call the Lord.
Upon connecting, the Lord inquired, “Do you have a clear understanding of the situation?”
Victor quickly replied, “Lord, your subordinates entered the copper mine to investigate, but unfortunately, the
entire mine has collapsed from the bottom, leaving nothing but ruins.
The area is filled with construction waste, and no clues could be found.”
The Lord’s voice became sharp, “How could this happen? Such a massive base, gone? What about the people
inside? Have they all been killed?”
Victor panicked, “Lord, we don’t know the fate of those inside.
We’re hoping that the official Cyprus investigation will uncover the truth.
However, they’ve already ordered the site to be filled up, and they’ve declared that the copper mine has reached
the end of its useful life and has been abandoned.”
The Lord’s voice turned cold, “Why are the Cyprus officials in such a hurry to fill up the site? Covering up evidence
so quickly, could it be that they discovered something hidden from the public?”
Victor agreed, he did not expect the Lord to grasp the key point of the problem so quickly.
However, he knew there was no turning back once the bow was drawn.
He could not bear the responsibility of the entire garrison of dead soldiers being taken over and Mr. Jarvis being
eliminated.
His only intention was to inform the Lord that the reason for the destruction of this place was due to the
overwhelming power of a mysterious enemy.
Just like the defeats in New York and Northern Europe, it was not that their side was weak, but rather that the
enemy was too strong.
Thus, he forced himself to say, “My Lord, I believe the soldiers stationed here, including Master Jarvis, are likely
dead.
The enemy took advantage of their lack of preparation and unleashed a bloodbath on this place…”
“Bloodbath,” the Lord murmured, “Jarvis is extremely powerful.
Who could have possibly killed him?”
Victor lamented, “My Lord, I do not know who did it.
Please punish me!”
After a long pause, the Lord spoke in a dejected tone, “Nevermind.
It seems that this world is not what I imagined it to be.
I was too optimistic.
Anyway, withdraw from there and do not mention this matter to anyone.
Offenders will be punished without mercy!”
Upon hearing this, Victor felt a wave of relief wash over him.
As the governor of the right army Governor’s Mansion, he was one of the most trusted officials of the Lord.
He understood the underlying logic of the internal operations of the Warriors Den.
In the Warriors Den, the five major governor’s mansions operated independently of one another.
No one knew the specific situations of the other four mansions, including their locations, number of soldiers under
their command, the number of stationed dead soldiers, or even the number of Dark Realm Masters or
Transformation Masters within each mansion.
Furthermore, there were strict information firewalls within each Governor’s Mansion.
To illustrate, considered the dead soldier station in Cyprus, which was entirely operated by Zyron, the commissioner
of the station.
Zyron only answered to Victor, even though his superior was the copper smelter in Turkey, who was responsible for

However, even the copper smelter had no authority over Zyron.
If both the copper smelter in Turkey and the copper mines in Cyprus were to disappear simultaneously, this line of
command would become unknown.
The Lord’s decision to conceal this matter was solely to maintain the army’s morale and to prevent others from
knowing about the mysterious enemy.
From another perspective, the Lord’s statement indicated that he no longer wished to be held responsible for the
incident.
Overwhelmed with excitement, Victor ended the call with the Lord and quickly contacted everyone else using his
mobile phone.
Upon their return, David saw Victor sitting in the co-driver’s seat and promptly took over the driver’s seat.
However, instead of immediately starting the car, he nervously asked his brother, “Brother, what did the Lord say?”
Victor frowned, scolding his brother in a low voice, “I’ve told you countless times, you can only call me brother in
private.
In public, you must refer to me as governor.”
David quickly corrected himself, “Yes… Yes governor… I was just concerned about you.
I was afraid the Lord would punish you.”
Victor smiled slightly and reassured him, “I don’t think it’s within my capabilities to provoke such a situation.
Let’s head back; it’s getting late.”
David handed Victor a bottle of water and said, “Governor, calm your nerves.
We’ll head back now.”
After surviving a catastrophic event, Victor felt extremely relieved and relaxed.
However, after unscrewing the lid on the bottle and taking a few sips of water, his face suddenly changed.
He stared at David with shock and horror and stammered, “David, you… You… You poisoned the water?”
