Charlie then ended the video recording and called Helena. There was a time difference of six hours between Northern Europe and New York. Northern Europe, which was further east, was six hours ahead of New York. It was dark in New York, but it was already morning in Northern Europe. At this moment, Helena was discussing her schedule for the next few days with the royal housekeeper. The sudden call from Charlie delighted her. She swiftly sent the housekeeper away and answered Charlie's call, her voice full of youthful excitement, "Hello, Mr. Wade!" Charlie felt a ripple in his heart when Helena's cheerful voice echoed from the other end of the line. He asked with a smile, "Helena, how are you?" "Pretty good," Helena answered. "Everything is fine, except for the family's never-ending nagging, but these are all small things." Charlie asked curiously, "You're the queen. Who would dare to nag you?" "Oh, you have no idea." Helena sighed and murmured dejectedly, "Yes, I'm the q

Her first advantage was her exceptionally beautiful looks. No one across the entire European royal family could surpass her beauty. Even compared to the most beautiful Hollywood actresses, she was no less stunning than any of them. The second advantage was her youthful and positive energy combined with a healthy and radiant aura. Who in the elite circles of Europe and America did not have a bit of a dark past? Drug use, affairs, promiscuity, violence, prison time, or even connections with organized crime—it was not fair to say that the entire upper class of the West was a den of snakes and rats, but at the very least, it was full of all kinds of vices. But Helena was different. Born into a royal family, she received an aristocratic upbringing from a young age. When others reached puberty and began to indulge themselves, both of her parents passed away one after the other. As a result, she had to be extremely cautious to secure even a limited space for survival in the harsh

Helena's reschedule would be officially announced in a few hours. What awaited next was to see if Harrison would urge Royce to go to Canada. If everything went according to plan, Charlie could take Julien's helicopter and fly to Canada with Royce. Either way, Julien and Royce were now his so-called hostages. He did not have to worry about them spilling the beans. In fact, he could constantly control and threaten them using this collaboration, which was much more practical than psychologically manipulating them. Psychological manipulation would be risky as those who were most familiar with them would be able to sense the abnormality sooner or later. Hence, Charlie preferred this kind of mild blackmail, which would be efficient when facing a strong opponent. The harder the opponent struggled to break free, the tighter he would be bound. Julien and Royce were bewildered as they watched Charlie finish the phone call with Helena. They didn't expect that Helena, the Queen of Northe

This made the men monitoring the Cole family mansion shudder in bewilderment. An agitated voice suddenly echoed from Hank's walkie-talkie, "Sir, something is going on in the mansion!" "Shit!" Hank hastily shouted, "Maybe someone sneaked into the house through a secret passage we don't know about! Hurry! Catch them before they get away with the Four-Sided Treasure Tower! Everyone, move! Whoever catches them will be rewarded with 10 million! Whoever gets the treasure tower will be rewarded with 100 million!" As soon as the announcement was made, almost everyone sprinted out of their hiding places and rushed into the Cole family mansion like a herd of sheep. Even though they worked for the Rothschild family, they were in low-rank positions. Their annual salary was basically around a few hundred thousand dollars. Some had even less than that. It was no wonder that they would go berserk when they were offered such a lucrative reward. Besides, it was not their absence from duty but a

Charlie did not open the wooden box to save time. He used his Reiki to scan the box and immediately sensed two items inside. One was a thick book, which he assumed was the copy of the Preface of the Apocalyptic Book. The other was an item made of metal in the shape of a pagoda. After confirming that the items were intact, he wanted to retract his Reiki and quickly leave the Cole family mansion with the box. However, when his Reiki swept through the tower, the tower seemed to have sensed his presence. Immediately after, he felt his Reiki being forcibly drawn toward the tower without any warning. What shocked him even more was that because this strand of Reiki was controlled by his divine sense, effectively making it an invisible extension of his consciousness, when the Reiki was absorbed by the tower, it also forcibly took a wisp of his divine sense from his Reiki field. At that moment, he felt as if he was standing in a world of fuzziness. Whenever he looked, it was dark

The reason it seemed somewhat familiar yet unfamiliar was likely because the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda had undergone several renovations after its initial construction. Its appearance, features, and even the number of tiers had changed significantly. Moreover, these renovations happened hundreds or even thousands of years ago. People had only seen the pagoda as it appears today after five major reconstructions, passed down through history. No one knew what it originally looked like, which was why Charlie had that sense of déjà vu but couldn't be certain. Charlie muttered under his breath, "So, the priest I just saw was Saint Jerome?" In the midst of his thoughts, the image passed through the prosperous Coleham and arrived at a temple on a green mountain in the south outside of the city. From the terrain, Charlie recognized that the place was the northern foot of Mount Solis. The two large words ‘Josher Temple’ on the gate of the temple immediately enlightened him that this was S
Chapter 6121
The moment his divine sense returned to his body, Charlie immediately sobered up. Although it felt like a long time had passed when his divine sense left his body, it was actually a blink of an eye in reality. Charlie, who was in a daze from the confusion, shook his head to compose himself. He took the wooden box, made sure that the secret compartment was empty, and immediately pushed the lion statue back and covered the secret compartment. At this moment, the commotion was still ongoing in the Cole family mansion. He immediately turned around, jumped up, and flew in through the window of the room where Hank, Julien, and Royce were. Julien and Royce were both dumbfounded at the sight. Jumping out the window didn't seem like a big deal, but they were aghast to see Charlie jumping back in. When Charlie returned to the room and saw the horrified expression on Julien's and Royce's faces, he turned to Hank and commanded, "Make them turn around, and you turn around to watch the
Chapter 6122
After the Four-Sided Treasure Tower was in Oskia, it could be returned to the Oskian government with the help of Emmett, and the mission would be completed. However, Charlie had no intention of leaving the United States just like that. Raymond was still in the hospital for treatment, and no one knew what the U.S. government and the Rothschild family would do to him after he was discharged. Charlie did not want to leave him alone. If possible, he would do his best to get Raymond out of prison and restore his freedom. Meanwhile... Hank ordered a group of men to rush into the Cole family mansion. They turned the mansion upside down but could not find any traces of breaking in. What puzzled them was that there was a lot of noise inside the house, and a lot of furniture and decorations were indeed broken. It was obvious that someone had been there. Otherwise, how could things fall with a crash inside an empty mansion with locked doors? But here came the strange part. It did look
