37. Undersea Treasure Hunt
Not long after, when Goldwell came out, he almost cried out.
"No, I... I'd rather not sell it... "
Terry, who came out right after him, pushed Goldwell, "Boss Goldwell, your map is almost like rotting in your hands. It's better to earn less than to lose money."
"The deal has already been struck. There is no backtracking, Mr. Goldwell. Business is about integrity huh?" Avril said with a serious face.
Raine sympathetically watched Goldwell leave. This fatty did not escape the clutches of these demons!
Now that they had the stuff, Avril and the others took the boat to the corner and immediately conferred.
"You guys, how much did you pay for it? I see that Goldwell is crying." Raine asked.
"Twenty pearls." Avril mischievously squeezed her eyebrows toward the bow, "Boss Goldwell said consignor wants 20 pearls. He had a hard time cutting it down to 19 pearls."
"Holy shit, you guys are also too inhumane!" Raine said, Cut the profit to 1 pearl. Are you demons? It's also not easy to yell for days!
But, nice job!
"Hey, it's all learned from the captain," Arsan said with a smile.
Raine smiled a little stiffly.
Now the treasure map and treasure journal were in hand. The day, they spent a whopping five pearls, purchased two sets of wooden robotic arms and a few ropes, and then set off.
Some people looked at the boat as they left the port in amazement.
"No way. Did they really buy the treasure map? Rich fools!"
"Impossible to find. I can put my words here. I will immediately run naked three times in the trading market if they can find the treasure."
"Uh, no one will make such a stupid bet with you! I thought they were very powerful. Now I think their previous deeds maybe just a coincidence."
These words did not reach the ears of Raine's crew. All they thought about at this point was the treasure.
The mechanical arm is not the kind of automated machine but can be shaken by the arm to achieve the effect of saving physical strength and changing the direction of the force. Terry can use this mechanical arm to simulate the action of the foot pedal so that he can not use the foot pedal. This was also very expensive. The original price was three pearls. Finally, Avril bought 2 with 5 pearls.
Raine's system does not have a way to manufacture a mechanical arm, so he could only buy two first, one for Terry to use. Others who are tired of pedaling can also use the other one.
Five days later, Raine and the others had arrived near the location of the hidden treasure.
Soon after, the radar showed they had reached the top of the map island.
"Sure enough, it's sunk." Raine looked at the bottom of the sea.
Since the bottom of many islands had been submerged in the ocean floor for years, making their geology constantly changing, the island could sink even today. Of course, there is also the possibility of a new island rising somewhere in the shallows.
This island is unfortunate. At this time, it has been completely submerged in seawater, about two hundred meters. Raine doesn't know when the owner of the treasure drew the map.
Raine scanned the island again according to the treasure log. Finally, he determined the exact location of the treasure and drove to the treasure directly above it.
"Arsan, the location is below here. Do you remember those traps? Be careful." Raine said.
"You guys tie this rope to Arsan. I will notify you in time if there is an accident and pull Arsan up."
Avril and the others followed Raine's plan and tied the rope around Arsan's waist while Arsan took off her jacket and pants, "Captain, don't worry, I remembered all the traps. Wait for my good news."
After saying that, Arsan takes a slam into the water.
The others lie on the side panel of the boat and look at it for a while, then they take out the nets and spread them out to pretend to be a fishing boat fishing here.
Raine kept an eye on the bottom.
As soon as Arsan got into the water, she transformed and grew fins next to her arms and calves, diving down quickly.
After a while, Raine's vision was also difficult to see, and he immediately began to focus on the radar.
On the radar, a small dot is approaching the previously marked location of the treasure.
Ten minutes, twenty minutes, half an hour...
The boat had been quiet now. Terry was pretending to pull the nets. Avril, Armin, and White were sitting on the boat deck, each nervous now.
Arsan had never dived this deep before, and she had to find the treasure while coping with the traps.
All of their eyes would look at the rope from time to time, they were afraid that something would happen, and they didn't notice.
Raine is also very nervous now. Forty minutes have passed. Half an hour ago, the radar showed Arsan had overlapped with the treasure's location, but Arsan had not yet come up.
And Arsan hadn't pulled the rope either... Now they just had to wait!
A whole hour!
Raine intended to have people pull Arsan up. Suddenly, the rope tied to the side of the boat moved!
Armin and Avril almost jumped up. The two rushed to the side of the boat and saw the rope really in a shake. They rushed to pull the rope.
"So heavy! Captain, is that Arsan down there?" Avril couldn't help but ask.
"Arsan is also floating up. You guys keep pulling!" Raine said.
Terry saw the two girls pulling hard, and he also came to help. White also bit the end of the rope and desperately pulled back.
After a few minutes, Raine saw the bottom of the sea.
Arsan had tied the rope to a large box, and she was helping to push it up.
Arsan and the treasure were there!
"There really is a treasure!" Raine got excited all of a sudden.
With a crash of water, Arsan and a rusty iron box surfaced simultaneously.
"Arsan!"
Arsan looked a little tired. She gasped for breath and said, "This box is too heavy. It took a lot of effort to tie it. You throw another rope. I'll reinforce it and then pull."
With great difficulty, the crowd pulled up the big box. Raine's heart was excited.
Such a heavy box. They will get rich if it is a box full of pearls.
Arsan also boarded the ship, and now all around the iron box.
The iron box has grown around the rust. There are some water plants, coral, and conch sucked in the top. The front of the iron box has a large lock. It can not open temporarily.
"Captain, we don't have the tools ......" Avril said with difficulty.
Raine immediately opened the system.
In the Get Materials menu, Raine quickly found harvest this time.
[Iron 50 kilograms] [Unknown item 200 kg] |
"Can't you just scan what's inside?" Raine was a little disappointed, "The treasure is right in front of me, but I can't open it! It's too torturous!"
Unintentionally, Raine glanced down, and he found a magical thing.
[Craftable item: 18] [Iron Ingot: 50/1kg, a common resource for building ships] |
"Eh?"
"How about crafting 50 iron ingots?"
Raine's words fell, and the iron box was quickly "dismembered," followed by a scream from Avril. The box gushed a large amount of seawater, and a crab ran away from Armin's feet in a flash.
Along with the scattering of seawater is a large number of pearls!
"Wow wow wow wow wow, it's pearls. How many pearls are these?!"
But the treasure seemed to be more than that, and finally, there was a round thing that landed heavily on the deck.
Terry looked blankly at the suddenly scattered pile. He held his forehead and stuttered, "This is... the gift of Poseidon?!"
Poseidon's gift? What the hell?
Raine had a boat of confusion.
