One hundred and sixty-five I'm Ultraman
Maruko waved his eight claws at Li Huan and dragged Alexander into the sea. When Maruko reappeared, there was no trace of Alexander.
Just in case, Li Huan did not let Maruko leave, but lurked in the sea to protect them secretly.
Li Huan coordinated the NGO to board another speedboat, and now the young people of the NGO look at him no different from the god of war.
The speedboat rode the wind and waves and began the return journey.
Among the people on board happened to be a freighter captain and a fishing boat captain, and the speedboat was much simpler than these two boats, and they were good enough to do it.
"Brother Huan! you are so powerful! and I thought we were dead, but I didn't expect you to actually win that monster!" Li Huan sat on the bow of the boat to rest, and Ida helped Han Dong to come over and sit with him.
Han Dong kept frowning, and then asked Li Huan, "What do you think of that Alexander?"
"I suspect it might be some kind of genetic technology......" Li Huan frowned, staring at the distant coastline.
"Brother Huan! there is a phone ......"
Before Li Huan could finish speaking, a young man from an NGO came over with a satellite phone on a speedboat.
Li Huan took it and saw that there was the logo of De Beers Enterprise on the phone. Li Huan took the phone and turned on the hands-free mode: "Hey?"
“…… Who are you? Alexander?" was a man on the phone, who spoke in a standard English London accent, and there was silence for a while, as if he already knew that something had happened to Alexander.
"Who are you?" Li Huan asked rhetorically.
"De Beers Merkdo, CEO of De Beers Enterprises, who are you?" the man was silent for a while, identifying himself.
"I'm Ultraman, and your little monster has gone to hell. I suggest that you better not look for other people, otherwise they will all end up in the same way. Li Huan snorted coldly.
"You killed Alexander?" the man named Merktor seemed surprised.
"I didn't kill him, he fell into the sea and died. "How could Li Huan admit to murder, besides, Alexander was indeed dragged into the sea by Xiao Maruko and fell to his death.
"Hand over what was found on the wreck. Mercado was silent for a while: "Otherwise, no matter who you are, we will chase you to the ends of the earth." ”
"Do you have a problem with your brain?" Li Huan finished speaking, and with a "click" he smashed the satellite phone and threw it into the sea.
"We're on someone else's speedboat...... Han Dong was stunned: "This speedboat should also have GPS positioning equipment, we can't dismantle the GPS on the ship, right?"
"We can't wait to go back and open those three barrels again, so let's open them now. ”
"In such a hurry?" Ida was stunned.
"There's a good chance we'll meet when we go ashore
When it comes to danger, you don't think I can fight all the mercenaries alone, do you? Now open the barrel, we will find a way to keep the useful things inside, and hand over the useless things directly to the South African authorities. Aren't they intimate? Let them eat dogs. ”
"Well, there seems to be no better way. ”
……
It's already three o'clock in the morning, and it's three hours before dawn. Needless to say, the authorities must have known about such a big thing at sea, the authorities knew about it, and the people at De Beers Enterprises must have known about it. The three barrels were found in a wreck and were to be handed over to the South African authorities as agreed. Originally, they could be opened under better conditions, but in the current situation, I'm afraid that handing them over has nothing to do with them at all. It's better to open the barrel in advance to see what's inside, and if it's useful, leave it in advance and turn it in depending on the situation.
No one had ever seen this strange wooden barrel, and no one on the ship had the relevant experience to handle it, so everyone thought about it for a while and handed over the task to Li Huan. Li Huan poured spiritual power into the bucket, and found no dangerous creatures except for metal objects, and there was no life inside.
This is not actually a wooden barrel, the outside is black wood soaked in wax, the black wood is inherently waterproof, and it is no wonder that it will not decay for hundreds of years after being soaked in wax. The barrel was opened, and a pool of cool water flowed out of it. In the middle of the barrel, there was also a soldered, silver jar. I took out the jar and shook it, and there seemed to be liquid in it.
"I'm on!"
Under the gaze of dozens of pairs of eyes, Li Huan carefully inserted the survival knife into the silver can, and with a bang, some liquid leaked out of it, and a salty fragrance immediately filled the air, so thick that it could hardly be dissolved. Someone next to him immediately shouted, "This is whale oil!"
Whale oil, a marine animal oil. The use of whale oil to preserve things has been around since the days of Viking. Whale oil was a universal oil before the advent of oil. In addition to lighting, this thing contains almost no moisture inside, and it also has a good antiseptic and preservation effect.
"Oh my God, this is the 'Hypnos box'! Open it! This is the old way to save important files! Maybe what we're looking for is inside!" Ida exclaimed.
Hypnos, the god of sleep in Greek legend, took the name of the box, meaning that the contents of the box would never change as if they were sleeping. Li Huan was also excited, such a strict preservation, if the shipwreck was related to the black box, then there was a high probability that what he found was in these three wooden barrels.
The jar was opened, and inside was a soaked sheepskin with what appeared to be written on it.
"A treasure map. After washing the sheepskin with fresh water, Ida shouted in surprise, then frowned, "This is ...... This is an encrypted nautical chart with no markings. ”
On the treasure map in the silver jar, there is one
A parchment nautical chart.
Nautical charts are well preserved and inscribed with the appearance of the African continent. Li Huan leaned over to take a look, and at the corner of the northern African continent, there was an X mark. The sign extends from the Cape of Good Hope to a bay. As for why Ida thinks it's a treasure map, it's because on the island near the bay, there is a skull mark with the character "Robin Hood's Men" engraved underneath.
This is a classic routine.
Robin Hood's Men is the meaning of Robin Hood of the Sea, and in the seventeenth century, it was the self-title of the pirate prince. But why did you want to transfer the treasure, the treasure map didn't say it, so I simply asked Xiaofei to scan it first.
"There is an overlap with the pattern of the black box...... Xiao Fei's surprised voice echoed in Li Huan's mind: "Look at what the remaining two wooden barrels are!"
With the experience of opening the first barrel, the remaining two barrels don't have to be tried so carefully. Now that you know that the inside is protected by the "Hypnos Box", the structure on the outside can be directly forcibly cracked. When the two barrels were opened, there were indeed two identical boxes inside.
Inside one of the boxes was a scroll, and the other was a ring-like object.
First, carefully open the scroll, which is densely covered with words. Ada only glanced at it, and a look of ecstasy appeared on her face: "This is it, this is what we are looking for!" This is a document compiled by pirates in the sixteenth century, robbing slave ships and embarking them. Interpreting it, we can help many small countries recover that piece of history! We can even help them get compensation and recover those looted artifacts! If we crack the clues of the treasure map, we can even set up a foundation...... Use the ship's satellite phone to inform the South African authorities!"
The people on the boat applauded!
Li Huan was stunned: "You guys are looking for this, what's the point?"
"Why doesn't it make sense?" Ida held a scroll thoughtfully, and suddenly the corners of her mouth pulled an arc: "The victims of war and looting, although they have disappeared in history, you see, their descendants are still struggling to survive. If we can do something for them, why not do it?"
Three barrels were opened, and the treasure map and scrolls were safely kept. The ring, which I didn't know what I could do, asked Li Huan to come over as his salary, and was going to study it slowly in the future.
When the day was bright, the group finally saw the coastline, which was less than 5 nautical miles from the shore.
At this time, the captain of another speedboat suddenly approached the boat and shouted with a satellite phone: "I just received a call from the authorities, who have prepared a welcome ceremony and are waiting for us at the port!"
Li Huan and Han Dong glanced at each other: "It's really fast." ”
