No Problem
Yang Yang said, "I don't need to sleep either, which frees up an extra spot."
Zhang Jian: "... Awesome."
He said those two words in Chinese, and they were among the few Chinese words he knew.
In fact, Yang Yang still needs to sleep, but she has been in the wilderness for a long time, so she is not particular about it and can use the force field to stabilize her body and sleep for a while anywhere.
Not pretentious at all.
Actually, if she wasn't afraid of scaring Zhang Jian and the others, she might have just gone up to the sky to sleep. After all, once the force field was formed, the rain wouldn't get on her, and she wouldn't sway around with the ship.
A day later, in the Barents Sea, Craig of the Alps, guided by coordinates, returned to the Golden Crab Field.
As it turns out, the North Pole found an excellent spot this year. Even with 179 cages left over, the remaining king crabs were enough for the Alps, Orca, and Longtail to have a bountiful harvest.
Moreover, there are still large groups of crabs in the vicinity.
According to Craig, the North Pole will definitely return here to continue searching for nearby crab populations to set traps.
However, the North Pole was nowhere to be seen on the vast sea.
Kamiyo Kura stood on the deck and looked at Craig: "Didn't you say they would come back here?"
"I'm talking about normalcy," Craig said patiently, looking at the dark muzzle of the gun in front of him. "But the North Pole is acting strangely this year. Maybe it thinks this crab farm has already been used up, so it's moved to a new location. The Barents Sea is so big, there are many places where crab farms could exist. Let's go look in other places. We have our radar on, so we'll definitely notice them when they appear. And, we might even find their buoys, and then wait for them to appear."
Crab fishing boats search for other crab boats at sea using two methods: radar and buoys scattered across the sea.
However, the Alps sailed for another 8 hours in the Barents Sea and still could not find any trace of the North Pole on radar.
The Orca and Longtail appeared twice, and everyone was aimlessly searching for the North Pole...
Kamiyo Kura's patience was wearing thin. He looked at Craig and sneered, "You local thugs deliberately leaked the information. If we find Qing Chen, we won't talk about it. But if we don't, I'll settle this score with you."
Craig quickly replied, "Don't worry, don't worry, we'll definitely find them. They're right here in this area, they can't possibly be somewhere else! There are no king crabs anywhere else!"
In Craig's opinion, crab fishing boats are meant to catch king crabs!
Late at night.
The North Pole slowly docked at Port 14 in Oslo, turned off its lights, and waited quietly.
Old John, Zhang Jian, Nedup sat on the boat, each holding a cigarette and smoking incessantly like three chimneys.
These are the sailors on the crab fishing boats, who need nicotine to stay awake at all times.
They looked at Qing Chen and Yang Yang: "What are you two doing?"
Qing Chen used a charcoal-burnt stick to draw on Yang Yang's face, turning a pretty little girl into a dirty crab-catching girl.
Qing Chen then casually gestured, and then simply used the Forbidden Item ACE-005 to make his face all dirty.
Zhang Jian asked doubtfully, "Are you two afraid of being recognized? But if only your faces are dirty, and ours aren't, isn't that a bit too deliberate?"
Qing Chen looked at Zhang Jian: "Thank you for the reminder."
So, Qing Chen disguised the three of them as well.
He explained, "Our appearances are relatively easy to recognize, so there's a need for disguise, since the people who rented the boat this time aren't exactly innocent either."
Just then, at the end of the path at Port 14, two SUVs and a box truck drove up, their lights off, and everything was done in complete silence.
Yang Yang said in a low voice, "It seems that she doesn't want to be discovered either."
"I wonder what they're doing in the Yamatin Islands," Qing Chen asked, puzzled.
At this moment, Qing Chen took out a flashlight and gave the three vehicles a signal of two short and one long blast, then jumped off the crab boat and set up the sampan.
After four men and two women got out of the three cars, one of the middle-aged white men instructed Qing Chen, "Go and move everything from the cars to the boat. Each box has a label on it, and the equipment inside is very valuable, so don't damage it."
After saying that, the six people stood aside.
There was no self-introduction, nor any intention to lend a hand.
Qing Chen laughed and turned to the people on the boat, saying, "Come down and help. Old John, operate the crane and hoist their things onto the boat."
At this point, a young white man frowned. "These pieces of equipment are very valuable. It's not safe to carry them up by hand, as the crane is not stable."
Qing Chen raised an eyebrow. What's the difference? Why is using a crane unstable?
However, he didn't say anything, and called to Yang Yang to help carry the six suitcases and three sealed wooden boxes upstairs.
Qing Chen listened carefully and found no breathing sounds coming from the box, so it wasn't carrying a living person.
Four men and two women stood aside waiting. They would warn Qing Chen and Yang Yang if the boxes tilted even slightly while they were moving them.
After Qing Chen and the others finished moving, the six of them looked around and then boarded the boat.
What's even more surprising is that they occupied the entire cabin and dormitory area as soon as they boarded the ship.
The cabin was originally meant for eight people, but the six of them locked the door and wouldn't let anyone in. They even asked Qing Chen for the cabin's dormitory key.
Qing Chen was speechless. "There are only six of you, what are you doing taking up an eight-person dorm room?"
The middle-aged man said, "We have some things to discuss privately, and we can't have others overhearing. You'll just have to make do on the deck for a few days. We've paid so much money, so naturally there's a fee for your trouble. Otherwise, why do you think we'd pay so much?"
Qing Chen thought to himself, 70,000 euros isn't actually that much...
Why do you act like you're God?
When you're loading your things onto the ship, it's not unreasonable to carry your own suitcase along, is it?
At this moment, the middle-aged white man said, "Someone of you come and clean the dormitory; it's too dirty."
Zhang Jian glanced at him. "We cleaned everything before you boarded the ship, where's the dirt? This is the standard condition on board!"
"No, if you don't clean up, we won't pay the final 10,000 yuan," a girl said.
Zhang Jian thought to himself, "If I don't want to pay, I don't want to pay. Anyway, the money isn't going to end up in my hands."
As a result, Qing Chen glanced at him, and Zhang Jian obediently picked up the mop and went back to mopping the floor...
A middle-aged man and five young men and women were there, but it was unclear what they were going to do near the Yamatin Islands.
After the ship set sail, the six men only briefly enjoyed the scenery on the deck before returning to their cabin and locking the door.
The North Pole slowly sailed out into the high seas.
Qing Chen sat on the deck, closed his eyes, and listened quietly.
A voice whispered in the cabin, "The ship that was sunk in 1866 should be near one of the seven coordinates. I think we should go to coordinate A2 first, as the probability is higher there. If we can find parts of the ship underwater, then we've found the right place."
"Okay, then tell the captain to go to A2 first and give him the coordinates."
"If no trace is found at A2, then go to A4. Someone previously found a handmade anchor near A4, and I suspect it belongs to the Dawn. If it's still not at A4, then go a little deeper to A7, where the waters are deeper, so no one has explored it before."
"It's alright. We have a water-type Awakened this time, so we'll definitely be able to find the gold coins left on that ship. There's still a long time before we can travel to the other world. If we can find the gold coins, life won't be so difficult every time we travel to the Inner World."
"However, we must be careful not to be discovered by the Future Organization, otherwise they will force us to join. We will also have to hand over our profits to them for unified distribution."
"By the way, does the Dawn really have gold coins?" someone asked in a low voice.
"Yes, everyone thought it was an empty ship, but when I was collecting old items in London, I found a letter from the captain of the Dawn to his wife. In it, he mentioned that he was going to Greenland with a full load of gold coins, which were the wealth they had plundered from the East. The gold was transferred at the port of Cyprus and placed on the Dawn. If I hadn't found this captain's letter, I wouldn't have gone to such lengths."
Upon hearing this, Qing Chen opened his eyes and looked at Yang Yang, whispering, "This is actually a team of Time Walker. There's a water-type Awakened in their team, who must specialize in treasure hunting. According to them, a ship called the Dawn once sank to the bottom of the sea, laden with 19th-century gold coins, and their mission is to retrieve those coins."
Yang Yang's eyes lit up. "I like this kind of thing."
Qing Chen thought for a moment and said, "I suspect they'll try to kill me to cover it up after they find me."
Yang Yang's eyes lit up again. "Wouldn't that be even better?"
At that moment, someone in the cabin asked in a low voice, "Do you think there's anything wrong with this ship?"
"There shouldn't be any problem, right? I think they're just ordinary fishermen."
