"Can you show me the map?" Wang Xingguo asked. Krussell hesitated for a moment and handed the computer to Wang Xingguo.

Wang Xingguo enlarged the map on the computer, looked at the terrain and direction, and said: "The azimuth is not wrong, the terrain matches, we are indeed here, but ...... We couldn't get over and I suggested a detour. ”

“NO！” Sharjah Jean immediately objected.

"Why? It's not too much to walk around the area. Wang Xingguo asked, the map on the computer seemed to have undergone some modifications, and Wang Xingguo saw that some things were artificially erased in some places.

"Believe me, we're going to get worse on the detour." Sharjah Jean would not disclose more information.

"Uh...... The floating bridge you are talking about, is this the thing? Wang Xingguo asked, pointing to a small piece of black floating on the sea.

"What is this?" Sharjah Jean is a little strange.

"Pumice, a volcanic eruption rock, is porous, lighter than water, and can float on the water." Wang Xingguo explained simply.

"This is the bridge that rose out of thin air in the record?" Sharjah Jean didn't believe it.

"It's possible, your map is decades away from now, here is an S-shaped crack, it should have been formed when the volcano erupted to create an island, and at the same time there are a lot of pumice, which are blocked in the S terrain, when the sea rises, they are pushed inland by the tide, forming a pontoon bridge that can be passed, but after so many years, maybe the terrain has changed, and the pumice stone will be carried into the sea at low tide, and now it can't form a bridge." Wang Xingguo explained.

Sharjah Rang still didn't believe Wang Xingguo's explanation, he was always sure that the record was not wrong, and he anxiously asked Kerry for help: "Kerry, you say, is that so? ”

"That's ......" Kerry looked at the volcanic rock beneath his feet, which was not thick basalt, but porous and hollow volcanic rock, which was quickly eroded by the action of water......

"Let's take a detour." Wang Xingguo returned the computer to Sharjah Jean.

“NO…… Absolutely not! Sharjah Jean still insisted.

"If you take a detour, the terrain will be much easier, the route you marked is a long and difficult route, we can go directly through the island and take a straight line to reach the destination." Wang Xingguo had memorized many important terrains in the map after just a few glances at the map, and he wondered why Sharjah insisted on taking this most difficult route.

"No, you can't cross the island, or something terrible will happen." Sharjah Jean shouted.

"Are you hiding something from us?" Crussell's dissatisfaction with Sharjah Jean exploded. Although Sharjah Jean is the owner of the money, he has always had plans and is reluctant to share key information about the island.

Sharjah fell silent, and Crussell said, "I'm here on behalf of Dick, and if you're like that, we won't be able to continue working together!" ”

"Okay...... There are many horrible records in the accounts I bought, and although they are only a few words, they are creepy enough...... The reason why the expedition did not take shortcuts was that they were mercilessly hunted by cannibals as they crossed the island...... Overnight, there were less than 10 people left in the expedition of more than 100 people...... "Sharjah made Krussell angry, and he had no choice but to say a little bit of the inside story.

"Uh...... Are there really cannibals? Chen Badai always thought that this cannibal was also a bedtime story, but he didn't expect it to be true.

"Yes, they are born hunters, ruthless, efficient, bloody, savage, are some of the words in the record." Sharjah Jean said: "We cannot pass through the territory of the cannibals. ”

"Don't you have Rambo's gun?" Chen Badai snorted.

"The expedition 60 years ago had more people and more guns, but none of them escaped the fate of being hunted...... "Sharjah made a little excited, he had to admit that he carried this machine gun, not to show off, but after reading the record, even if it was just a few words, he shuddered when he thought about it, the fierce fire of the machine gun could give him some comfort.

At this time, Crussell seemed to understand why Sharjah insisted on carrying a gun, even if it took up the weight of supplies!

"Well, are there any professional soldiers here besides me?" Wang Xingguo was a little helpless and asked.

"I'm a member of the Rifle Association...... Kerry said, then scratching his head in embarrassment, "but I haven't fired a shot." ”

"I have been in military training for a month in college and have fired 5 shots!" Chen Badai raised his hand.

Wang Xingguo knew that Chen Badai's 5 shots flew 4 shots, and 5 rings in one shot! He looked at Crossell again, and here he should be more like a professional soldier.

"Uh...... I'm just a dentist and I had the opportunity to go to the National Guard, but I turned it down......" Crussell said with some embarrassment.

Wang Xingguo looked at Mr. Min, who only shook his head slightly.

"Okay......" Wang Xingguo was a little helpless, he really guessed correctly, the seeds of trouble were planted at the beginning of this team.

"From a professional point of view, I suggest that we evacuate." Wang Xingguo said.

“NO！” Sharjah Jean, Crossell, Mr. Min, and Kerry shouted almost at the same time, perhaps the most tacit agreement they had ever had.

"We've lost the chance to succeed." Wang Xingguo said.

"No, you must not evacuate, you must not leave without seeing the treasure." Sharjah Jean and Crussell said in unison.

Wang Xingguo looked at Crussell and the others, and his eyes stopped on Kerry. Kerry felt an invisible pressure, turned his face to the side, and said weakly, "I'm just a scholar." ”

"First, the expedition must be clear about the mission, so be open and honest, but from the beginning, you have been hiding things; Second, nothing is more important than the safety of the players, which is why I'm here; Third, it's up to me to assess the security issues. Wang Xingguo seemed to have expected this situation for a long time, and he endured it without saying that it was time for a showdown.

Although Crusell is a team leader, his profession is a dentist, although he looks burly and powerful, but he knows little about exploration, but the charm of the treasure is too great, big enough for him to take a risk, along the way he is trying his best to maintain the authority of his "team leader", but now the first crisis has made him not know how to deal with it, he looked at Sharjah Jean.

Only Sharjah Jean holds the location of the treasure, but he is reluctant to share it, he knows almost nothing about expeditions except that he is a tyrant, and what he once thought was simple is now in trouble. Who can guarantee what will happen if you cross cannibal territory, but now there are only two paths in front of you, either retreat or venture across cannibal territory.

It is absolutely unacceptable to return, for this event, Sharjah Jean has already paid 5 million US dollars, money is not a problem, but time cannot buy it back, Sharjah Jean does not care about money, and he is not interested in any courage and risky rhetoric, but he wants to have something that the world does not have. In India, race determines identity, identity determines class, and this kind of growth environment has deeply engraved the identity label in his mind!

Although his wealth can be among the world's high society, he can still feel the contempt of the upper class for him, in his opinion, this is the malice of those high society towards him, he is fed up with the feeling of those "high people" looking at himself as if he is looking at a monster with squinting eyes, what limited Bugatti Veyron sports car, private customized version of the banquet evening wear, can not wash away this malice, but as long as he has something that others cannot get and cannot copy, then he can look down on those who once despised him. As he digs through the pile of old papers of his ancestors to the few words recorded on the island, he frantically searches for the pirate's treasure, which he believes will impress everyone and wash away the inferiority complex of his race.

Therefore, he was reluctant to share these secrets with others, and Sharjah Jean thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Wang Xingguo, as a security advisor, your task is to assist us in finding the treasure, that's all. ”

"Yes, but I can't assess the risk if I'm not clear about the situation." Wang Xingguo said.

Sharjah Jean looked at Crossell, who shrugged his shoulders and said, "Actually, I don't know anything." ”
