Chapter 188 Shipwreck x Treasure Hunt

It is probably immersed in the deep sea more than 300 meters deep. The seabed is silent and there is no sunlight.

Through the Devourer's perspective, the outline and even the texture of the sunken ship are clearly visible.

If you observe with your naked eyes, the scene will be pitch black and you won't be able to see anything at all.

"Lite, did you bring your cell phone?" Xia Jieren suddenly asked.

"I brought it? What's wrong?" Litte was confused, but still took out her bag and took out her cell phone.

"Transfer the image to Litte's mobile phone." Xia Jieren said silently in his heart.

Then he said to Litt: "Turn on your phone and you can see the shipwreck on the seabed."

"Really?" Litte immediately started to operate skillfully.

After a moment, a clear picture of the seabed appeared in front of Litt and Butler Kiel.

"Wow~, is the seabed so desolate?" Litte exclaimed.

"Hey, why is the seabed so bright?" Butler Kil said in surprise.

"Is there something wrong with this?" Litte asked puzzledly.

Before Xia Jieren could show off his knowledge, Butler Kil replied, "Your Majesty, you don't know."

"In the ocean, the deeper you go, the less sunlight there is."

Litte suddenly realized and looked at Xia Jieren.

Xia Jieren explained: "The shipwreck is now located at a depth of more than 300 meters on the seafloor. It is dark and deep there, without any sunlight."

"Humans can't see anything in the dark, but Zerg units are different. They 'see' everything and rely entirely on their eyes."

"They can 'see' things clearly through electromagnetic waves, ultrasound and other means."

"The images you see now have been processed."

Litte and Butler Kiel only understood half of what was said. They didn't really understand these things, but they didn't delve into them further.

Speaking of 'seeing' things, Xia Jieren suddenly thought of Observation Haki.

It can sharpen one's five senses, allowing one to detect the breath and emotional changes of surrounding creatures, and can also be used to predict and avoid danger.

Observation Haki is an ability that can transform a person into a human radar, which is very practical.

Xia Jieren is very eager for this ability.

Seeing Litte's uninterested expression, Xia Jieren didn't explain further.

"Is there any treasure in this shipwreck? I'm so looking forward to it." Litte said excitedly.

"Not sure. Even if there is, it won't be much." Although Xia Jieren was also very much looking forward to it, he was mentally prepared to get nothing.

"Then go and have a look quickly." Litte urged.

"Okay!" Xia Jieren nodded with a smile.

After hesitating for a moment, he recruited several worker bees from the warship's cabin and let them jump into the sea.

The Devourers and Sea Kings are so large that they can easily shatter a shipwreck into pieces.

The worker bees swim quickly in the water.

This is the first time since the optimization of the worker bees that Xia Jieren has let the worker bees try to move in the sea.

Compared to marine troops such as Devourers, Worker Bees are smaller in size and have weaker combat effectiveness in the sea, so Worker Bees are not very useful in the sea.

One minute later.

The figure of a worker bee appears in the video screen.

Video screen switching.

Through the worker bee's perspective, the shipwreck becomes clearer.

The wreck is a medium-sized vessel.

No pirate flag was found flying, so this should be a merchant ship.

The shipwreck became dilapidated due to the passage of time and the corrosion of sea water. There were several large holes in the hull and the keel was broken.

After taking a quick look at the sunken ship, Xia Jieren ordered, "Go into the cabin and start searching."

Upon receiving the order, the worker bees acted quickly, searching from the main deck to the cargo hold, leaving no corner unsearched.

Xia Jieren and others watched curiously.

The cabin was littered with rotten furniture. After entering the captain's room, the worker bee made a great discovery.

A treasure chest!

Xia Jieren and Litte immediately showed a look of surprise on their faces.

"Open the box!" Xia Jieren ordered impatiently.

Everyone held their breath and watched the worker bee break the padlock and open the treasure chest.

"Uh~" When the treasure chest was opened, Xia Jieren was disappointed.

The treasure chest was filled with debris. If Xia Jieren was not mistaken, it should be paper items that had rotted to a certain extent.

"There should have been a large amount of Baileys in the treasure chest. Judging from the size, there must be at least tens of millions." Xia Jieren guessed.

"Oh!" Litte sighed, looking extremely disappointed.

"Haha~, there's no need to be disappointed. This is how treasure hunting works." Xia Jieren consoled.

"Yeah." Litte nodded slightly.

After carefully checking the captain's room, the worker bee left.

Afterwards, they searched the kitchen, warehouse, crew room, etc. in turn, but found nothing.

There was nothing left in the warehouse except dozens of wooden barrels.

Grains, vegetables, meat and other foods should all be broken down.

After searching the main activity area of ​​the crew on the top floor, the worker bees finally arrived at the cargo hold.

All that was left in the huge cargo hold were a bunch of unknown objects and some deep-sea creatures.

It seems that these deep-sea creatures use this place as their nest.

Xia Jieren asked the worker bee to take a closer look and guessed, "The cargo originally transported by this merchant ship should be linen."

Litt replied, "Yeah, it looks very similar."

"The reason why this ship sank here is probably because it was attacked by pirates on its way back from the Kingdom of the Netherlands importing linen."

"A pirate attack? Normally, pirates wouldn't do something like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs." Butler Kil frowned.

"Not necessarily. Pirates are mostly independent people who don't necessarily follow the rules of the trade." Xia Jieren said, "They may have found out that after working so hard for most of the day, they only got some worthless linen, so they may be angry and embarrassed."

Litt and Butler Kiel nodded in agreement.

What Xia Jieren said is very likely. Most pirates are hot-tempered guys. It is normal for them to kill people if they disagree with something.

"Since nothing valuable has been found, let the worker bees come back, and let the sea worms and devourers continue searching." Xia Jieren ordered.

The warship slowly moved forward again.

Xia Jieren was very lucky this time. In less than ten minutes, the Devourer found a new target, which was not far from its current location.

The warship began to move forward to the right.

Six minutes later.

After confirming the target, the worker bees went into the water again to search.

"This time it's a small boat." Xia Jieren's tone was a little disappointed.

This kind of boat is not worth looking forward to at first glance.

When the worker bee approached, it found a flag hanging on the mast of the ship. The symbol on the flag was blurred, but it could be vaguely recognized that it was a pirate ship.

The damage to the ship was so severe that it was unrecognizable. There were numerous bullet holes on the hull and deck.

"This should be a pirate ship. Did it lose a battle with other pirates?" Xia Jieren guessed.

Although Litt was somewhat disappointed by the last shipwreck, she still watched the worker bees searching for treasure with great interest.
