Chapter 3049: Nile Crocodile Night
All members of the Ethiopian exploratory team and several senior officials, as well as many heavily armed Ethiopian military police, were placed on the first small island in the lake.
put down together, there are some supplies, mainly food and fresh water, and some camping equipment.
On this small island, Ye Tian’s security personnel had already opened up a safe camping site and prepared a lot of camping tents.
With these materials and equipment, Ethiopians can live on this small island for a few days without any problems, not to mention that they can catch fish at any time as fresh meat.
After putting down most of the Ethiopians, the joint exploration fleet left this small island and sailed to another small island in the lake a few hundred meters away.
Within a short while, a few cruise ships arrived at the island.
The scene that happened just now will be staged again!
Several fully armed security team members welcomed the joint exploratory team on this small island in the lake.
Like the small island in the lake before, they also opened up a flat camping site on this small island and prepared a lot of materials and equipment.
After the fleet docked, Ye Tian led his company employees and security team members, carrying their own luggage and some exploration equipment, as well as a large amount of weapons and ammunition to board the island.
Mustafa, who followed, also got off the boat and walked to the island to check the situation here.
The conditions and conditions on this small island are basically the same as the one on which the Ethiopian exploratory team is located.
Seeing this scene, Mustafa has nothing to say.
roughly checked the situation on the island, he came to Ye Tian and said in a low voice:
"Well, Steven, that's it tonight, your arrangement looks good, just like you said, it's fairly fair, and it didn't treat the two sides differently.
What I care about now is, when do you plan to launch a joint exploration operation to take everyone to explore this amazing treasure hidden by the Italians during World War II? "
Ye Tian smiled, then said:
"Since we are the partner and I am the leader of this joint exploration team, we naturally have to treat everyone in the team fairly, so as not to make everyone feel bad.
As for the exploration of this treasure, it will start early tomorrow morning. At that time, I will lead a joint exploration team to the location of the treasure to explore this amazing treasure."
"Since it is a joint exploration operation, then I hope that you will not act without authorization, and don't think about throwing us on that small island and sweeping this treasure away by yourself!"
"You don't have to worry, Mustafa, we will never act without authorization. If you leave you to explore this treasure, it is not in line with our usual behavior, and we disdain it.
As we all know, we still have to explore the legendary treasures of Solomon and the Ark of the Covenant in Ethiopia. Naturally, we will not do this kind of stupid deeds. I believe you all understand this.
What you should worry about is how to control the eyeliners of all parties in the exploration team and the military police. If no surprise, those guys will act tonight, and even wait for an opportunity to abscond! "
"Understood, Steven, I will pay attention to these issues and try my best to control the situation. It is tens of kilometers away from the shore, and it is impossible to leave without a boat!
After I return to the island, I will explain the situation to you, and select some trustworthy military and police personnel to guard against anyone escaping in the dark! "
"There is another thing I want to remind you. According to my security staff, they found traces of Nile crocodile crawling on these small islands, and these traces are very fresh.
Although there are not many traces, it is enough to show that there may be Nile crocodile on these small islands. When you are resting, you must strengthen your guard. If you rush into the water, you may be killed by the crocodile! "
"Ah! It's more than 30 kilometers away from the shore of Lake Tana. How could the Nile crocodile come to such a place? It's incredible?"
Mustafa exclaimed, obviously shocked.
"It’s far from the shore, but don’t forget that there are many small islands in Lake Tana, and most of the small islands are deserted and inhabited by countless water birds including pelicans.
More importantly, the water here is plentiful in all seasons. For the Nile crocodile, these small islands are their paradise, and they can use these small islands to migrate all the way! "
Ye Tian smiled softly and explained a few words.
"This situation is too important. I will tell all members of the exploratory team later that it is strictly forbidden for anyone to enter the water at will. I believe no one wants to go down to the lake to feed the Nile crocodile!
If this treasure hidden by the Italians sinks at the bottom of the lake, and there are a large number of Nile crocodiles in this water area, how do we start the salvage work, is it too dangerous? "
"Then you don't have to worry about it, we have our own way, and we have made corresponding preparations. Some Nile crocodiles can't prevent us from getting out of this amazing treasure!"
"I hope so, it's better not to have any accidents!"
Mustafa nodded in response, but a glimmer of joy flashed deep in his eyes.
Next, the two of them discussed for a while.
In the process, Mustafa used the satellite phone to report the situation to the President of Ethiopia again.
When reported, he only said that the exploratory operation was unfolding smoothly and that the amazing treasure should be found tomorrow.
But he did not say the current location of the joint exploration team and the location of the treasure.
After making the phone call, Mustafa left by speedboat and returned to the island in the Ethiopian lake.
After watching him leave, Ye Tian immediately said to Matisse next to him:
" Let the guys be more vigilant, especially the guys on several boats on high alert, maybe Ethiopians will venture over to steal the boat tonight, try to escape from here, and inform the outside world.
At the same time, we must also let everyone be careful of the Nile crocodile attack. Who knows if those cruel guys will sneak attack in the dark. If you find a Nile crocodile coming ashore, everyone immediately fires and shoots to kill those guys."
"Understood, Steven, I will remind everyone to keep everyone on guard. Among these Ethiopians, there seems to be no master swimmer, so the threat is not big!
Comparatively speaking, I am more worried about encountering Nile crocodile. That thing is notorious. I thought I would not encounter Nile crocodile on this trip to Africa, but I did not expect to encounter it here! "
Matisse nodded and responded, very confident.
Then, Ye Tian exhorted a few more words, and then walked to the campsite.
Immediately afterwards, the few medium-sized cruise ships sailed away from this small island and sailed to the third small island in the lake five or six hundred meters away, ready to anchor there for the night.
The location of the three small islands happens to be an irregular triangle, each with a corner.
If the weather is fine, standing on any of the islands, you can see the situation on the other two islands.
But at this time it was foggy and it was pitch black. Each small island seemed to hang alone in this lake, like an island in the darkness.
In this case, it becomes very difficult for anyone to swim to the other two islands in the dark.
If you are not careful, you will lose your way in the lake and swim to other places.
If you wear a life jacket, there is still a silver lining, and eventually you can only float on the water because of exhaustion.
Then he also prayed to God not to run into the hungry Nile crocodile.
Otherwise, he will become a feast for Nile crocodile.
If you don’t wear a life jacket, there is only one dead end, no one can save him!
Seeing several medium-sized cruise ships leave, even the employees and security personnel of the Brave Fearless Exploration Company are a little bit worried and worried!
Ye Tian looked at these guys, then smiled and said loudly:
"Don’t worry, these medium-sized cruise ships, as well as several other ships, are moored around a small island nearby, and each ship is under our control.
The reason for letting them leave is to reassure the Ethiopians, lest they worry, we will leave them alone and explore this amazing treasure left over from World War II alone.
Once there is an accident on our side, all the ships will come to pick us up as soon as possible. In addition to these ships, I also made some arrangements around Lake Tana.
So everyone can rest assured that there will be no problems here. After the camp is completed, everyone can enjoy this unique night in the lake. I believe it will be a good experience! "
Hearing this, everyone took a breath and suddenly relaxed.
Then, everyone got busy and set up camping tents one after another, preparing to camp on this small island.
When everyone was busy, Ye Tian left the camp.
He carried the assault rifle, took the little white elf, and two armed security team members, and walked the small island in the lake.
Wherever he went, all the poisonous creatures hidden on this small island were all killed by the little guy of the white elf, and one fell into decline!
Maybe it was because the security team members at the front station made too much movement, and the many ships that followed were not small.
The Nile crocodile that originally inhabited this small island has disappeared, leaving only traces of crawling.
There are a few traces that look quite amazing!
The Nile crocodiles that left those traces are all over four meters in length and weighing more than 150 kilograms. They are all very large creatures, and their attack power must be very strong.
I just don’t know, where are those guys hiding now?
They may be hiding in the nearby lake, staring at these strange visitors on the island with cold eyes, waiting for the opportunity to move!
There are many waterbirds on this small island, and the most abundant is the pelicans.
Because they were not threatening, Ye Tian didn't do anything to them, and everyone got along peacefully.
The only pity is that it is night and I cannot enjoy these beautiful waterbirds.
In the process of exploring this small island, Ye Tian secretly turned on perspective, and thoroughly looked through the island below the ground and the surrounding waters.
Through perspective, he found the nests of some Nile crocodiles, and saw some small crocodiles in the surrounding lake, as well as countless freely swimming fishes.
However, he did not see any adult Nile crocodile.
This result, instead of letting him relax, it made him more vigilant.
After cleaning up the small island roughly, Ye Tian took the people back to the campsite and joined the campfire party that had already started!
Considering that there may be ferocious Nile crocodile on the island, for safety reasons, the security team who came here to fight the front station set up the camp in a relatively high place.
In this way, even if a Nile crocodile climbs ashore from the lake in the dark, it will not threaten everyone's safety for a while.
Waiting for the Nile crocodiles to climb to the camp, the alarm devices set up around the camp, and the security guards at night are enough to wake everyone up.
Not only this is the case on this small island, but the same is true for the small island not far away that is used by the Ethiopian exploratory team.
Because it is far from the shore of the lake, and the lake is foggy.
Even if you hold a bonfire party on the island, you don’t have to worry about revealing your whereabouts!
If there is a Nile crocodile climbing on the island, everyone will kill those guys directly without worrying about revealing their whereabouts.
The sound of assault rifle shooting, or even the explosion of RPG rockets, can’t travel that far.
Ye Tian When they returned to the camp, the steak on the grill was just cooked, and the aroma was overflowing.
A few of them quickly washed their hands, picked up a steak each, and began to feast on.
While Ye Tian was enjoying the food, David asked worriedly:
"Steven, I heard that there are Nile crocodile on these small islands. Have you found it? Will it be dangerous if we camp here?"
Following David's words, several nearby explorers all looked over.
Without exception, everyone has a bit of worry in their eyes.
In various movies and television, in many exploration programs about Africa, the Nile crocodile has been described as a very cruel animal and the top predator.
The legends and news about Nile crocodile cannibalism have been heard a lot and read a lot.
Because of this, everyone is a little worried. It's normal.
Ye Tian glanced at these guys, then smiled and said:
"Yes, there are indeed traces of Nile crocodiles on these small islands. Judging from those traces, there are a few Nile crocodiles that are relatively large and their attack power must be amazing.
But don’t worry, our company’s security staff will be able to protect everyone, and this camping site is relatively high and there are many alarm devices around it.
Once a Nile crocodile climbs on this island, the security guards at the night watch will find out immediately, and then wake everyone up. In this way, I believe there will be no danger! "
Hearing this, everyone nodded and relaxed a little.
Next, everyone was talking, laughing and chatting while enjoying the food.
The only pity is that you can’t drink!
……
It was late at night, and there was silence all around.
The surrounding area is still foggy, and the visibility is extremely poor. It can only be seen at most 20 or 30 meters.
"Wow, wa, wa"
The water of the lake patted the island gently, endlessly.
In the woods and bushes on the island, there will be waves of bird calls from time to time, but it is not very pleasant.
There are fishes jumping out of the water on the surrounding lake, and then dive into the water again, adding a little noise to this silent night!
Most of the tents in the camp have their lights off, and only a few tents used by security personnel to watch the night are still lit!
These camping tents are located at various locations on the island, facing different directions and monitoring the lake in different directions.
And the seven or eight mosquito killer lamps set around the camp have never been extinguished.
A few hours later, I don’t know how many mosquitoes have been killed by these mosquito-killing lamps~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In the tray under each mosquito-killing lamp, there are at least tens of thousands of mosquito corpses. Tingling!
In a camping tent in the middle of the camp, Ye Tian had already fallen asleep.
At this moment, the white elf sitting on the mountaineering bag suddenly raised his head and looked out of the tent.
Immediately afterwards, the little guy leaped off the hiking bag, landed directly on the sleeping bag, and made a hissing sound.
Ye Tian's reaction was quick, and he woke up instantly.
After woke up, he first glanced at the little fellow White Elf, then turned his head and looked outside the tent, towards the dark lake.
The next moment, his face suddenly changed and became quite solemn.
Without hesitation, he immediately got out of the sleeping bag, quickly picked up the assault rifle placed aside, and then opened the zipper on the tent door.
In the blink of an eye, he has walked out of the tent and stared at the lake not far below.
At this time, if someone stands on the shore and observes, they will see that there are many water lines extending towards this island.
"Matisse, prepare everyone for battle. Many Nile crocodiles are swimming quickly to this small island. Tonight looks like a Nile crocodile night!"
Ye Tian said through the wireless invisible headset, and raised his assault rifle to point at the lake.
"Boom Boom Boom"
The harsh gunfire suddenly sounded, tearing the quiet night apart in an instant.
With this sudden noise, everyone in the joint exploration team was suddenly awakened.
of course also includes Ethiopians hundreds of meters away, as well as those security personnel guarding the fleet!
