<h2 ss="wp-block-heading">Chapter 7231</h2>


    At the Nordic research station, three women sat by the window around a tea table.


    Their eyes were constantly fixed on the outside.


    Although Maria had brewed tea,


    None of the three, including herself, was in the mood to drink it.


    Charlie had been gone for several days,


    His fate is still unknown.


    Maria wanted to call him via satellite phone,


    But she worried that if he was in danger, her call would reveal his location,


    So she just waited patiently.


    Jeremiah and Ria were also very worried about Charlie’s solo journey deep into Antarctica,


    But like Maria, they were rtively restrained,


    So none of them showed their concern too obviously.


    Suddenly, Maria’s phone screen lit up—a news notification.


    The research station had a Starlink receiver that operated 24 hours a day,


    And thework here was not much different from that of a modern city,


    So Maria’s phone received many notifications every day.


    However, her phone was always on silent and set to vibrate to avoid disturbing others’ cultivation.


    When the screen shed,


    She nced at it curiously,


    Then, she immediately picked up her phone in surprise and opened the notification.


    Her interest in this news stemmed from its headline,


    Which was rted to Antarctica:


    “Lightning Spotted Deep in Antarctica,”


    “Scientists Say It’s Unprecedented!”


    A video news clip followed, with the host narrating:


    “Last night, Beijing time, American weather satellites detected dense lightning in a region deep within Antarctica.”


    “This has baffled scientists.”


    “It’s known that lightning is almost impossible in Antarctica during winter.”


    “Scientists say that lightning under these conditions is akin to a torrential downpour in -60 degree Celsius weather—an unprecedented and highly unusual phenomenon.”


    “However, scientists currently do not know the specific cause of lightning.”


    Hearing the voice on her phone, Jeremiah eximed,


    “Lightning?!”


    “That must be caused by Mr. Wade’s Thunder Order, right?!”


    Maria nodded solemnly, saying,


    “Besides the young master, there’s no other possibility.”


    “It seems the young master should have…”


    “After a fierce battle!”


    Ria asked nervously,


    “Ah?! Mr. Wade didn’t actually fight with one of the three elders,”


    “Did he?”


    “They are the second strongest members of the Warriors Den after Victoria.”


    “Although Mr. Wade’s cultivation is also very high,”


    “There should still be a big gap between him and the three elders.”


    Maria thought of something and stood up as quickly as possible,


    Blurting out in a panic,


    “Wait here for the young master.”


    “I’ll go back to my room first.”


    “It’s best not to call me unless it’s important!”


    Jeremiah and Ria looked at Maria’s expression with some strangeness.


    In their impression, Maria was a very calm andposed woman,


    Almost like she wouldn’t change her expression even if Mount Tai copsed in front of her.


    They didn’t know why she suddenly became so flustered and in a hurry to go back to her room.


    Jeremiah, concerned, asked Maria,


    “Miss Lin, are you alright?”


    “I’m fine…”


    Maria replied uneasily,


    “I…I’m just a little tired.”


    Actually, Maria was thinking that if Charlie were to encounter danger,


    He would most likely be teleported back by the ring her father had given her,


    Possiblypletely naked.


    What if he were suddenly teleported back in front of Jeremiah and Ria?


    Wouldn’t that be incredibly awkward?
