Chapter 36: Shark Biting
Construction site of Treasure House No. 1.
The interior of the treasure house at this time.
A tall, bald man with extremely strong muscles was standing in front of a golden stone slab.
On his bald head was a tattoo of a giant shark with its mouth open.
Those cloudy white eyes stared at the golden stone slab in front of them, motionless.
At this time, the sound of easy and clear footsteps came from behind him.
An ordinary human male, but wearing extremely exaggerated and flashy clothes, stepping on the ground in a ostentatious manner with long boots that looked like clown shoes.
He came behind the burly man, stroked the brim of his exaggerated hat with his hand, and gently turned it twice.
He showed an extremely weird and exaggerated smile.
"Hey, Captain, have you seen what you are looking for while standing here?"
His voice was just like his attire, with ups and downs and a bit of exaggeration.
The sturdy man looked at the stone slab in front of him without turning his head, but asked: "Niwek, do you know why the Fords family declined?"
Hearing his leader's question, Nivik twisted his waist.
Suddenly, his eyes widened, he stretched out his right hand and index finger, looking surprised as if he had thought of something.
"Oh, now I remember. It is said that a huge scandal broke out, and then he was squeezed out and liquidated."
The sturdy man nodded, and an evil smile appeared on his originally expressionless face.
"Yes, who could have imagined that a respectable merchant noble family was actually a dagger in the hands of some big shot? When this matter was exposed, they were naturally abandoned and liquidated."
Nivek pointed his index finger at his head, a puzzled look on his face.
"But what does this have to do with us?"
"Of course it is related. Among THAAD's 12 treasure troves, do you know what the most important thing he hides is?"
"Treasure?"
"No, it's a scandal of my enemies."
Then he changed the subject and turned around to ask, "Is Andre's treasure hunting team on the island now?"
"Yes, Captain, all the main members have been sighted on the island."
" Annoying uninvited guests? Let them leave first."
"Um... Captain, logically speaking, we are the uninvited guests."
Looking at the look in his captain's eyes, Nivek made a zipper gesture on his mouth and shut it obediently.
…
"We've learned that the Shark Biters have arrived. Their goal is the same as ours, which is THAAD's treasure trove."
Andre in the house spoke.
"It is said that the leader of the Shark Bite, Welter, once discovered two small treasure houses?" Jason asked Andre with a slightly doubtful look.
Hearing this question, Andre nodded.
"Yes, it is said that he has been pursuing the treasure of THAAD."
"Then judging by the way they're behaving, it looks like our future actions won't be so smooth."
Xia Daiti stroked his face with one hand and said with some annoyance.
Alka had no idea and could not interrupt. He just sat quietly by the side and absorbed the information from their conversation.
He had learned from Xiadaiti about the behavior of biting sharks.
No scruples under the rules.
Robbery, murder, kidnapping.
As long as you are not discovered and there is no evidence, there is nothing to worry about.
It doesn't matter if there is evidence in some places.
More like a violent gang.
However, this kind of people is what the sea lacks the least.
The only difference between them and the pirates is that they still have some concerns.
After everyone chatted for a while .
Andrei turned and looked at Alka.
"Let me think about how to assign you something to do."
The timing of Alka's joining was a bit too unwise.
They have been active on the island for quite some time and have collected all the necessary intelligence. Now all that remains is to sort out the intelligence.
After sorting out the intelligence and finding clues, it is time to start the tedious task of searching for the treasure location.
These don't have much practical meaning for Alka now.
Some tasks that only main members can undertake are obviously not suitable for Alka, who has not yet become a Toucher.
"There are two choices. First, follow Jason to learn how to sort out the intelligence and find the thread."
"Or you can choose to go to a city or a place that interests you to collect some intelligence. Although it may not be useful, it is a rare opportunity."
After hearing the choice given by Andrei, Alka lowered his head and thought for a while.
"I'll choose option 2. I want to get familiar with the island first."
Andre nodded: "No problem, you also looked at the intelligence that has been collected yesterday, just collect according to the general direction of this intelligence."
"Any interesting information is fine. Just write it down boldly. Even if it's useless now, you never know when it might be useful."
Xiadaiti said as he looked at Alka and blinked.
Hearing this, Alka smiled slightly and then nodded.
After chatting for a while, they went to rest.
Except for Jason who was still looking at the intelligence hard and sorting out the useful information.
early morning.
Alka, neatly dressed, stood at the door of the house.
Looking at Jason who was lying on the table and sleeping soundly.
It seems that treasure hunting is not an easy job.
"Are you ready to go for a walk in the city?" Xia Daiti's voice came from inside.
Alka, who was standing at the door, nodded.
"Yes, get familiar with the work first."
"Wait a moment."
Having said that, Xia Daiti returned to his room.
When he came out, he was holding a crystal disc in his hand.
"You hold this thing so we can find you if anything unexpected happens."
Arka took the crystal slice, which was about the size of a thumb, and nodded.
Then say goodbye to Xiadaiti.
Walk towards the city through the country roads.
We took the small path all the way to the back of the city and entered the city through the gate at the back.
As soon as you enter the city.
It was much worse than Alka had imagined.
There are low and somewhat dilapidated houses here, and some of the wooden roofs of these stone houses are broken.
Various stalls are scattered on both sides.
Most of the residents here are farmers wearing ordinary linen clothes, and they look very poor and simple.
Alka's rather neat clothes seemed out of place with his surroundings.
As a result, no one dared to look up at him carefully, and they would subconsciously dodge around to make way for him.
Through the chaotic crowd.
A low city wall, about 4 meters high, runs across the city.
Walk along the avenue into the city.
This low city wall was not guarded by many soldiers, only two guards were standing at the main gate.
They looked Alka up and down with their weapons in hand, then nodded and motioned him to come over.
"No one who is not dressed appropriately may enter."
One of the guards raised his spear and pointed it at a poor man behind Alka.
Is that so?
Pass through the heavier stone door.
The scene before me suddenly became clear.
Alka stood still.
Unknown emotions surged in my heart.
What is blocking this city wall?
Just separated by a wall.
