Chapter 165: The Ruined El Dorado

The gold was so dazzling that Gordon's eyes narrowed unconsciously, but his gaze never shifted, staring at it deadly.

Not only Gordon, but the two soldiers on the cliff were also attracted by that touch of gold.

A golden light pierced through the space, flickering across the source.

Burton stood in the camp, staring at the flickering golden light, and then drew his binoculars.

"They've found El Dorado!"

This golden color that shimmers in heaven and earth, except for the El Dorado, can hardly find a second explanation.

On an unknown hill, Wilson, who was monitoring the British camp with a telescope, was also attracted by this golden light, and suddenly looked up at the waterfall.

"They've found El Dorado!"

Wilson looked at Fidel and said the same thing.

The colonel frowned, as if he was not very pleased with the result.

They have suffered enough during this period of time, often avoiding the sight of those British, holding back as much as possible not to light fires, eating the dry food and raw food they carry, and many soldiers have already fallen ill.

"It's not what we expected, we have to do it early, or the British reinforcements will arrive. ”

Burton sent two soldiers down the river to Lord Betkek for reinforcements, but the two men were attacked by the Spaniards on the way, one was killed on the spot, and the other jumped into the river to escape.

The river is not the same as the sea, and if you fall overboard in the sea, unless you are very lucky, the probability of survival is very low. But the river was in fresh water, the water temperature was high, and it was able to go ashore from many places, and they searched along the bank for two kilometers, but did not catch anyone who came ashore.

From that time on, Wilson was on guard against British reinforcements.

"Wait, El Dorado isn't so easy to obtain, and I don't think these Englishmen would be so lucky, considering the people who have been exploring it for hundreds of years. ”

"Wait, Captain Wilson, I think you may have forgotten who you are, and I will order my soldiers to set out at once, and then raid the British camp and bury them all. ”

Colonel Field turned around and prepared to leave, he couldn't stand the pirates.

"And then, are you going to take all the gold under the noses of the great army of the British?"

Wilson turned his head and said, staring at Colonel Field, a Spanish officer, a paladin, with eagle-like sharp eyes.

Field stopped and took two deep breaths, but he had to admit that Captain Wilson was right, if they wanted to mine the gold of El Dorado, then they had to calm down, it was a long thing after all.

"And what do you think should be done?"

"Just wait, Colonel. Wait for their strength to be weaker, and wait until we can eat them quickly! As long as we eat these people, when our people arrive, we will be able to form a suppression of strength. ”

The Colonel shook his head a little helplessly, and walked down the hill, feeling that Wilson's ideas were a little too idealistic, and that he would rather have his fate in his own hands if possible.

"I just hope everything goes well. ”

The wind blew away his last words.

......

At this time, Gordon had a smile on the corner of his mouth, this is excitement, excitement, and the joy of finally finding El Dorado!

For this thing, he has spent more than a month, rushing from London to this primeval jungle, without stopping for a moment, sacrificing a lot of people and going through hardships.

"See? Angel's Fall, El Dorado, it's there!"

The soldier lowered his hand and looked at the light of El Dorado speechless, Gore's figure had been submerged in the golden light and disappeared.

"You're camping here, and if anything else, we'll come up, don't do anything stupid and come along!"

Gordon admonished as he took off his shirt, which wrapped the last cigar and handed it to a soldier.

"Yes, sir. ”

One of the soldiers said in a somewhat bewildered voice, taking his clothes, as if thinking about what Gordon was going to do.

Not everyone has the courage to jump in the face of height.

Gordon finally gave that confident smile and leaped forward.

A leap of faith!

Eagle Eye scanned everything below, the incomparably magnificent El Dorado, and this time, Gordon finally dared to open his eyes to enjoy the heights, and he could also feel the protective film that the substantial faith provided for him.

The golden city got closer and closer, and then passed through the thin film formed by the light curtain.

At the moment of falling into the water, Gordon adjusted all his postures, closed his eyes, felt the cool water soak his whole body, the sound kept fading, and he jumped into a waterhole, which belonged to the El Dorado waterhole.

A figure came ashore from the water, it was Gore, he grabbed the angel in his hand, and climbed up step by step through the ruins under the water, and the moment he came ashore, he instantly took off his clothes and wrapped the angel, and he always remembered this.

It was already late at this time, and the water soaked his whole body, making his body tremble a little unfreely.

The ups and downs of life are so exciting, he originally jumped down with a certain heart, but at this moment he entered the El Dorado by mistake.

There was no unexpected joy, only a deep loneliness and confusion, because the scene in front of me was so dilapidated and full of dead silence.

The legendary El Dorado, with its palaces and splendid buildings, was the center of the greatest wealth and power in all of America, but here all he could see was the countless ruined walls, and the gold was now visible like garbage.

He couldn't get a full picture of it, but just what he saw in front of him could already know a lot of things.

The water of the waterfall flows through the ruins of gold and then gathers here, as if seen from above, the place is more like a crater, caused by the bombardment of a high-yield bomb.

The collapsed golden pillar was stuck in a puddle, and there were many gold bricks scattered next to it, which were the same materials that could be seen in the river, and the whole city was almost built of that material.

There is nothing here except gold, and the greed of human nature has been suppressed a lot in an instant, which is why Gore has not been manipulated by desire to collect that gold at this time.

Because, gold is like garbage here.

Gordon also got up from the water, and then sat by the pool in a bit of a daze, looking at the ruins of war in front of him, and then at Gore, who had lost his mind.

"I'm starting to believe that this place was really destroyed by the gods. ”

Dazed, Gordon's first reaction when he came here was this, and the violent visual impact made him seem to lose a lot of interest in things like gold.

"What should we do next?"

Gore asked, not knowing where to start.

"Let's go see the city!"
