Chapter 801: Treasure Under the Sea
Captain Jack's face stretched long after hearing the report, and his whole body released a murderous aura, and he walked out step by step. At this time, no one dared to approach Captain Jack, and no one wanted to be a scapegoat.
The people on the salvage ship were the complete opposite, relieved when they learned that the pirates could no longer catch up with them, but Townsend was still very cautious, because Seid's men appeared and disappeared. In order to prevent the treasure from ending up in Seid's hands, Captain Jack had the radar signal monitored twenty-four hours a day to see if anyone was following them, and even if nothing was found, the salvage ship deliberately circled the sea.
The next three days were very uneventful, with no pirates, no followers by Seid, and not even the occasional passing ship.
That night, Townsend summoned Cavry to his room, along with Wang Hai, Mary, and Olivier, and from his stern expression alone, it was clear that he had made a serious decision to tell everyone, and everyone stared at him, waiting for him to speak.
Townsend looked around and took a deep breath before speaking, "I think everyone knows these days that I was deliberately going around in circles, just to get rid of those who are eyeing the treasure, and now it seems that no one is following us anymore." ”
"You mean we can salvage the treasure?" Kavrey asked excitedly, he hadn't slept well a day since he went to sea, and every day he thought about the treasures of the rich country.
Townsend nodded heavily and said in a deep voice: "Although I am still a little uneasy in my heart, we can't delay the time too long, it's time to salvage the treasure." As he spoke, his gaze fell on Wang Hai and the three of them, and he said in an accentuated tone, "We may still be hindered by the salvage process and the success of the salvage, and I hope that your skeleton mercenary group can perform your duties at that time." ”
"Rest assured, we know what to do." Wang Hai said with a package ticket.
Townsend was a little relieved.
Kavrey couldn't wait to ask, "Where is the treasure?" ”
Townsend stared at the crowd and said slowly, "Right at our feet." (Baidu search update is the fastest and most stable)"
"Our feet!" Kavrey exclaimed in surprise, instinctively looking down at the deck beneath his feet.
The treasure certainly can't be on a salvage ship, and Townsend is referring to the salvage ship below. Wang Hai, Olivier, and Mary were also a little surprised, although this is the open sea, but it is not too far from the American sea, and they have passed by here more than once in the past three days, and this time they stopped only thinking that they were going to rest at night, but they didn't expect the treasure to be below.
"You're going to start salvaging now?" Wang Hai asked.
Townsend nodded his head and said, "Yes." I said, we can't afford to delay any longer. ”
"Does anyone else know?" Wang Hai asked.
Townsend replied: "I haven't told them yet, but they have some sense that they are ready for salvage." After a slight pause, he continued, "Mr. Robin, our enemies do not have to come from within, but may come from within. ”
"Understood." Wang Hai replied softly, knowing that Townsend was worried about the sailors on the salvage ship in addition to pirates and Seid, who could guarantee that these sailors would not turn against each other after seeing the treasure? "I'll take care of them."
Townsend nodded reassuringly, got up and said, "Let's get moving." ”
After leaving the room, Townsend summoned all the sailors on the salvage ship and announced to them the start of the salvage. The excitement of the sailors was palpable, and one by one they cried out, as if the treasure was already in front of them.
"I want to pick two people to accompany me to the bottom of the sea first, and the others will stay on the boat and prepare for salvage." Townsend said.
"Yes." The sailors answered.
"Hans." Townsend began to roll call.
"Me?" Hans was a little surprised when he was chosen, but he quickly became excited, and Townsend was able to choose him to show the trust he placed in him. (Baidu search update is the fastest and most stable)
Townsend then picked another sailor, and the average Kavrey was a little breathless, and asked, "What about me?" ”
"You stay on board." Townsend replied.
"Why?" Cavry asked excitedly, he wanted to accompany Townsend into the water, he wanted to see those priceless treasures as soon as possible.
"Kavre, you have an injured hand and are not fit to go into the water. Other than that. Townsend glanced at the others deliberately, and continued, "It's more useful for you to stay on board." ”
Kavrey realized that Townsend did not choose him not because he did not distrust him, but because he trusted him, he left him on the ship, and his task was to watch everyone on board. "Okay, I'll stay on board." Kavrey had no choice but to accept it.
Townsend turned to Wang Hai and said, "Mr. Robin, I want you to go into the water with me." ”
"Me?" Wang Hai was a little surprised, and then he understood that Townsend did not trust the two sailors who followed him. "Okay."
Soon the four of them put on their diving equipment, "Tom, tom, tom, tom." The four of them jumped into the water one after another, holding underwater lights in their hands, and dived down one by one after Townwend.
All kinds of fish on the bottom of the sea were attracted by the four of them, and they swam back and forth, and occasionally fierce fish swam by, which was very thrilling.
The four of them descended until they could see the bottom of the sea with the naked eye. The bottom of the sea is like another continent, with mountains and valleys, and it is a very wonderful world.
Townsend paused to identify the direction, and then gestured for Wang Hai and the three of them to follow, and after climbing over a mountain cliff, there was a chasm in front of them, and the four of them swam towards the chasm and continued down. A few minutes later, the four of them saw a 19th-century shipwreck, its appearance had changed after more than 100 years of immersion, but it was still not difficult to distinguish that it was the "Central America" carrying a lot of treasure.
Everyone was a little excited to see the wreck, and everyone continued to follow Townsend into the wreck.
It was not the first time Townsend had been here, and he knew a lot about the buildings on the wreck, and he swam all the way to the warehouse containing the gold.
Wang Hai was always observing the surrounding situation, and suddenly a figure was swimming in the cabin, and he instinctively turned the light over. It turned out to be just a false alarm, and the cabin was not a person, but a skeleton, which should have been the passengers on the ship back then.
"Squeak." There was no sound in the water, but they could feel it, and the door of the warehouse seemed to make an unpleasant sound and was forced open, and then the four of them rushed in.
The ship must have been subjected to a great jolt when it sank, and the boxes in the warehouse were staggered, and some of them were even opened, and the gold was scattered everywhere, still shining brightly in the light.
Hans and the other sailor each reached for some gold coins, and their movements showed that they were unusually excited at this time. If you could see it, you would have found that they had a greedy look in their eyes and wanted to take it for themselves.
After briefly looking at the treasure on the ship, Townsend motioned for Wang Hai and the three to leave, and now that it has been confirmed that the treasures are still here, the next thing to do is to salvage them.
The four of them swam out of the wreck, and just as they were about to climb over the cliff, they saw a ray of light coming from them, and the four of them hid alertly behind the rocks. Wang Hai motioned for everyone to turn off the light in their hands, so that they were completely hidden, and then the four pairs of eyes stared at the direction where the light came from, and gradually saw that it was a huge guy.
It's a submarine! This made Wang Hai very surprised, how can there be a submarine here?
It didn't take long for everyone to understand that the submarine was sent by Seid to follow Wang Hai and others, because it had been hiding at the bottom of the sea, so no one had found it in the past few days.
Then everyone saw an amazing scene, only to see three small things separated from the submarine and shot towards the sea at a rapid speed.
"Torpedo!" Wang Hai exclaimed.
Although the others couldn't hear Wang Hai's scream, they also felt the horror, the target of the three little things should be the salvage ship floating on the sea. The fact that the submarine had launched an attack on the salvage ship indicates that it had discovered the "Central America".
Wang Hai was in no mood to care about the wreck and the treasure on it, so he swam to the surface of the sea without hesitation, and Olivier and Mary were still on the salvage ship, and he was worried that the two of them would be in danger.
"Boom!" A spark flashed on the surface of the sea, and the torpedo hit the salvage ship.
Fragments, oil stains, corpses, the more Wang Hai went up, the more frightening things he saw, he sped up, and prayed in his heart for Olivier and Mary, hoping that they would be okay.
"Wow." Wang Hai finally surfaced, got the oxygen mask and shouted loudly: "Mary, Olivier! ”
The sea was calm, and there was nothing but debris from the explosion of the salvage ship.
"Wow." Townsend then surfaced, took off his oxygen mask and screamed like Wang Hai, but no one answered them.
"What about people? Sue me where is Kafrey! Townsend grabbed Wang Hai uncontrollably and shouted.
Wang Hai shook his head blankly.
"Bastard, you said you would protect him, where is he? Sue me! Townsend exclaimed.
Wang Hai was not in a good mood now, and just as he was about to get angry, Mary's voice suddenly sounded in his ears. "Wang Hai, is that you?"
Only then did Wang Hai remember that he was wearing a communicator unique to the Skeleton Mercenary Regiment in his ears, which was not only waterproof, but also still communicated well in such a place. "It's me, Mary, are you alright?" Wang Hai exclaimed excitedly, and without waiting for Mary to reply, he continued, "What about Olivier, how is she?" "I'm fine." Mary replied. "I'm fine, too." Olivier's voice rang out. "Where are you?"
