The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 485

The following morning, Jayden gathered a large team to head to Mount Hickoria. There were a few men in coveralls carrying rope and ax. They stood out oddly among the crowd.

Dominic explained to Jared that these men were experts in searching for access to the vein mine. Despite knowing the vein mine's location, they could not carry out mining unless they could find its natural opening.
