Open the treasure chest in the comic world
Chapter 29 It’s too early to be happy!
The reason why Laura was angry was that she originally did not want to accept help from her family and completed the expedition plan independently to prove herself to Aunt Diana. Unexpectedly, Aunt Diana, who had always been opposed to her plan, actually hid her identity to fund her expedition. By the time she realized it, the contract had been signed. Moreover, this news was told to her personally by the man in front of her, so Laura didn't feel good about Wood, the accomplice.
Wood didn't care much about Laura's mood. Anyway, this time he just came to see if he could get out of a system task. As for other things, he didn't care too much. And he also knew that Laura didn’t hate him, she was just a little emotional about being plotted against him, and he disappeared after a while.
So faced with this embarrassing situation, Wood calmly drank a cup of coffee, and then said: "The money has been transferred to your card. The money is enough for you to hire a good boat and equipment. Leave your contact information and let me know when the time comes. , according to the agreement, I will also set off with you."
After speaking, Wood looked at the expressions of the two beauties across from him. When it came to this adventure, Laura did not continue to show off her face. Instead, she became serious, exchanged contact information with Wood, got up and left. When he left, the unhappiness on his face was all replaced by the excitement of the upcoming adventure, and Wood left after paying the money.
A week later, in the port, Laura and her best friend Samantha stood on the bow of the ship, enjoying the sea breeze and admiring the scenery, and looking forward to the adventure that was about to begin.
Samantha: "But isn't it good for us to do this? After all, we have signed a contract. Isn't it too immoral to just leave him like this?"
Laura: "It doesn't matter. He was hired by Aunt Diana anyway. At worst, I will talk to Aunt Diana and give him more money to compensate him."
Yes, because Laura was unhappy, the two did not notify Wood to board the ship, but planned to leave directly and leave Wood at the port.
Samantha: "But I always feel that things are not that simple."
Laura: "It's okay. Don't worry, I will take care of everything. Be happy. Thinking about the adventure we are about to embark on, you will be a lot happier."
"Haha, it's too early for you to be happy." A sneer suddenly broke into the conversation between the two, and they were startled and turned around to look. They saw a man wearing a black windbreaker standing behind them. It was Wood who was left behind by the two.
"You, why are you here?" Laura was startled by the sudden appearance of Wood and could not speak clearly.
"Yeah, you're not," Samantha also agreed, but she couldn't go on in the middle of the sentence because she was in the wrong for this matter.
"Haha, you still want to tease me with this little trick." Wood was not interested in explaining to them. He sneered and turned back to the cabin.
""
After Wood left, Laura and Samantha were left standing on the deck with their eyes wide open, not knowing what to say.
Now that all of Laura's actions in the UK are under the surveillance of SHIELD, these two little girls still want to get rid of Wood and run away on their own, which is too simple. And under the strong plot inertia, Laura finally hired the Tenacity, and coincidentally met Professor Whitman to go with her.
Woo, the whistle sounded, and the Endurance officially left the port. Captain Ross took the helm and the crew got busy together. This journey will go from the United Kingdom to Japan, and it will take several weeks to drift at sea. Fortunately, when Wood boarded the ship again, he received a system mission.
"Invite the host to complete the task:
To obtain the inherited soul of the Sun Queen in Yamatai, the host only needs to break its body, and the system will automatically capture its soul.
Mission reward: a legendary designated treasure chest.
Penalty for failure: Trapped on a desert island for two years. "
It seems that this inherited soul has a great effect on the system, because the rewards are extremely generous and the punishments are also severe. If you fail, just learn like Robinson Crusoe and survive on a desert island for two years.
The days of sailing are very boring, and Wood also relies on meditation to pass the time. If he is really bored, he will play with the unicorn Rayquaza for a while.
On this day, Wood and Captain Ross were drinking and chatting in the captain's cabin. The reason why the two had such a good relationship was not only that they were both soldiers, but also the reason why Ross wanted to find out about him.
Ross: "Brother Wood, why did you come to this ship? You know this is not a good job."
Wood: "Isn't this Diana hired to protect Laura?"
Ross: "You don't have to lie to me. You are a soldier and have received military training and your skin is so good. From the first glance, you are not a person who is a mercenary who has come and gone."
Wood: "Haha, I really can't hide anything from my brother. In fact, I'm not doing it for money, but for Laura."
Ross: "Oh, what do you say?"
Wood: "Laura's father, Earl Crawford, funded a large amount of money when our organization was first established. He is considered a veteran figure of ours. Naturally, his daughter Laura is also our focus."
Ross: "No, if that's the case, why would you follow me?"
Wood: "Earl Crawford used to be an adventurer, and many of the magical items he found were handed over to us, and the place where he disappeared was Yamatai, where our previous search and rescue teams were completely wiped out. We happened to be going there this time, just in time to look for clues and recover the bones of Earl Crawford."
Ross: "Here, what you said is true." Ross and Earl Crawford were close friends, and you regarded Laura as your own daughter. When you suddenly heard the news, you were really shocked.
Wood: "Of course. Before Earl Crawford disappeared, he borrowed some Yamatai materials from us."
""
Wood: "Oh, this won't work anymore. I have a terrible headache. Let's go back and sleep first." Wood stumbled out of the captain's cabin, his internal energy surging and forcing all the alcohol out of his body. How could he have gotten drunk if he hadn't been for acting?
After Wood left, a girl with braided braids walked out of the inner room of the captain's cabin. He heard the conversation clearly, so now he has no resentment against Wood. Wood acted just to deceive Laura, otherwise it would be bad if there was any conflict between the two of them at Yamatai.
How could the breathing sounds of the three people in the captain's room be hidden from Wood? That's why he used his trick to act out such a show, and he didn't lie. He told the truth.
"No, we should go to Dragon Triangle."
"Listen to me, I have two PhDs"
Wood woke up early in the morning and heard a quarrel. It was Laura and Whitman arguing about the destination and where the ship should sail.
