As he spoke, Stephen then said, "Furthermore, you will also become an unattainable existence in the eyes of all of the families in the country, just like your father back then!”
Charlie waved his hand and said seriously," Remember to block all news about the matter tomorrow. Do not let the word about my true identity spread out to the public. It is not the time for me to stand out yet."
Stephen was puzzled, and he said, "Young Master, if you could even defeat Ten Thousand Armies, why don't you take advantage of this excellent opportunity to announce your identity as well as make the announcement that you have become the head of the Wade family?”
Charlie said, "Ten Thousand Armies does not have any real influence aside from their large number of people. Look at the top Jewish families of Wall Street in the United States. They can influence and control half of the world’s economy, they can use financial laws to destroy twenty years of a country's economic construction, and they also possess the ability to use the Congress to mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops and aircraft carrier battle groups to launch an offensive against another country. That is true strength.”
As he spoke of this, Charlie sighed and said, "The Rothschild family, who is all-pervasive in the western world, is such a giant. So, I want to hide in the shadows, gain some insight, and feel them out first."
"Understood!" Stephen said immediately, "I will bring some men to block off Mount Wintry in advance. No one else will be allowed to enter aside from the members of the Wade family and Ten Thousand Armies."
Charlie asked him, "Mr. Thompson, how many men do you have available in Eastcliff now?"
Stephen said, "Young Master, I still have nearly a hundred reliable men that are ready to be deployed at any moment under my command now!"
Charlie asked curiously, "Why are there still so many? Didn't they escape after Ten Thousand Armies sent their harsh words out this time?" 2
"No." Stephen said respectfully, "All of us have received great kindness and favors from your father i n the past. We are all united, and our greatest wish is t 0 avenge your father! We will not hesitate to do it even if we have to give up our own lives! Now that there are people who are trying to disturb your father's peace and quiet in his afterlife, we are already prepared to fight to the end. So, how could we possibly escape and run away from the battlefield at this time?!”
As he spoke, Stephen then said, "Some of them are people you know, and some of them are from the
group of those people who had been lurking in the Aurous Hill Welfare Institute and posing as staff working at the orphanage. They came back to Eastcliff after their orderly withdrawal from Aurous Hill. Many of them are older like me, but there are also some men who are as young as you or even younger than you." 2
