Chapter 708 San Teodoro

Mindoro Island is taken from the Spanish mina de oro, which means "land of gold mines". When the Spaniards colonized the Philippines, they discovered several gold mines on this island, so they put it on this island. Such a name.

Mindoro is the fifth largest island in the Philippines. It is about 160 kilometers long from north to south and 84 kilometers wide at its widest point from east to west.The highest peak of the High Lorraine Mountains is the Alcon Mountain in the northeast of the mountain range, which is as high as 140 meters above sea level.
There are less than 70 Filipinos living on this island with an area of ​​less than [-] square kilometers, but most of these residents live in the coastal area. Inhabitants, so most of the island is quite primitive.

The yacht that Morris rented departed from Manila and arrived at Puerto Galera, the northernmost port city of Mindoro, in more than three hours.The capital city of the entire Mindoro Island is Calapan in Oriental Mindoro Province, but Puerto Galera is the most prosperous, most populous, and best-view port city on the entire island.

Before the yacht entered the port, hundreds of small and medium-sized yachts were seen in the straits outside, and the sea water here was extremely clear, and even the underwater coral reefs could be clearly seen through the water several meters deep.

Standing on the deck at the bow, Gege looked at the sea water here and exclaimed: "The quality of the sea water here is really good, not inferior to Hawaii at all. I really want to go for a swim."

"Hehe, if you want to go down, go down, this is not easy? Why don't you stay here for diving and swimming after arriving in Puerto Galera, and I will take Chris and the others into the mountain, and pick you up when we come out of the mountain. "

Ge Ge bit his finger and looked at the clear sea water for a while, and then at Yang Jing for a while, appearing hesitant.Obviously, the sea water here is really not a small temptation for her.

Puerto Galera is located at the northernmost tip of Mindoro Island. Today, Yang Jing and the others came from Manila and ran for more than 70 nautical miles on the sea, so they only ran for three hours.If Batangas across the Calafah Strait comes, it will not even take an hour.

Although Puerto Galera is a port city, the city is most famous for its tourism industry. The local Sabang Bay has been listed as a Man and Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO since 1973. The bay has the most beautiful scenery in Asia. The diverse coral reefs are world-renowned diving destinations.

This is why so many yachts can be seen here. These yachts are rented locally by diving enthusiasts from all over the world, and then come here to dive.

The coral reefs in Sabang Bay are even comparable to those in Cyprus. Although they are not as large as the Great Barrier Reef in the Great Coral Sea in eastern Australia, there are as many types of coral reefs here as there are.

Gege is also a girl who likes diving very much, so when she sees such a beautiful coral reef, where can she move her feet?
"I said, daughter-in-law, don't worry about it. Going into the mountains is not a good thing. There are no roads, and there are all kinds of small bites, poisonous snakes, and spiders in the mountains. Be careful if you get bitten, it will be troublesome. I know you want to follow me into the mountains to see what secrets are hidden in those places, but this is easy to say, the big deal is that when I get to the place, I will directly use the satellite phone to video with you Just connect."

"Well." Gege looked at the blue water hesitantly, finally gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay, I'll stay here with Rovisa and the others. But you have to remember, when the time comes Give me a video connection, if you forget, I won’t let you go to bed when you come back!”

This punishment is harsh enough, so no matter what you say, you can't forget the video connection!
The yacht docked at the yacht pier in Sabang Bay. As for Puerto Galera in the south, it doesn't matter whether you go or not.Sabang Bay is the essence of this port city, where luxury hotels can be seen everywhere, as well as restaurants and bars.And because this is a well-known tourist attraction throughout the Philippines, the security here is quite good.

Gege’s two female bodyguards, Lovisa and Valentina, are from Norway in Northern Europe. They used to be two female special forces in the Norwegian women’s special forces “Hunter Regiment” and had participated in the security forces in Afghanistan and Iraq. For security work, the two of them fought in Syria for two months before they were recruited by Chris at the end of last year.

But Yang Jing didn't just keep Lovisa and Valentina, but also Mark, Sean, Thomas, Jackson and Brian from Morris's team.This time, we don't need so many people to enter the mountain. Keeping the five of them can also increase Grid's security force.

After getting off the boat, Yang Jing left the Sabang Bay pier with seven bodyguards, and took three taxis all the way south to Galera Port.

Mindoro is actually a very primitive island. It is only prosperous in the coastal area. As for the inland Gaoluolin Mountains, it is actually a wild area, let alone roads, and even human settlements are almost invisible.

The two locations recorded in Alfred's notes are all located in the High Lorraine Mountains, and one is north and the other is south, and the straight-line distance between them is more than 60 kilometers.Therefore, in order to inspect these two locations in a short period of time, it is obviously inappropriate to use ground transportation, so they have to enter Puerto Galera to rent a medium-sized helicopter and enter the Corolla Mountains from the air Go find those two hiding places.

And the most important reason for choosing to use a helicopter is that Yang Jing judged that the location and coordinates recorded in Alfred's two notebooks may not be so accurate.

Yang Jing used identification skills to identify the two notebooks, and confirmed that the two notebooks were written by Alfred himself, and also confirmed that Alfred wrote the two notebooks in 1946.

And the autumn of that year happened to be the time of Alfred's death, that is to say, these two notebooks should have been written by Alfred during his lifetime.However, in the 40s, there was no satellite positioning at all. In that era, if you want to accurately locate a location, you can only locate it against a large-scale map.

The coordinates generated by positioning against the map are definitely not as accurate as the current satellite positioning system.Therefore, if you want to find the exact location, you need to explore it in the air first.

According to the coordinates of that era, it is difficult to find a hidden location in the vast mountains, especially these locations have been in the mountains for more than 70 years.Just like the first location Yang Jing got in his notebook, that is, the location in Kabugao, Luzon Island, there are only two hints in the notebook, "Luzon Island" and "Kabugao", plus Even if you look for the deciphered coordinates against the high-definition satellite map, you can only see the vast forest and nothing else.

Although Kabugao is a small city, it is located in the mountains, no matter how small it is, if you can't locate it accurately, you can't find the hidden place in Kabugao.

As for the two hidden locations on Mindoro Island, they are similar to Kabugao. Even if there are coordinates, judging from the satellite map, there are no useful clues at all except for the trees and the river.

It seems that the first hidden place that Yang Jing and the others are about to find is the two place names "Mindoro Island" and "San Teodoro". A coordinate of - N13.31E120.94.

Although it is possible to fly there directly with the exact coordinates, Yang Jing wants to take a closer look at the difference in this hidden place in the air, so that he can also accumulate some experience for finding other hidden places.
