Chapter 125: Chapter 124: Never Change One’s True Colors

Joanna gave Sean Knight a quick hug but soon let go. The two of them were clad in diving suits, which made it inconvenient.

Only then did Joanna notice that Sean Knight was carrying a box, about half a meter in size.

Did he find something?

Joanna was originally just curious and didn’t have high hopes of finding anything. However, to her surprise, Sean Knight had actually brought something up!

The two of them swam side by side to Mermaid Island. Sean Knight carried the box onto the shore, removed his breathing mouthpiece and said with a smile to Joanna,

"We found the treasure!"

He had stashed most of the treasure into his spatial realm. The wooden box had rotted away. Sean Knight simply dumped a load of golden coins from an iron box into his spatial realm, then took some gold and silver ware and put them in the iron box to carry out.

Once out of the diving suit, Sean Knight opened the box in front of Joanna.

Within the box were half a box of golden coins and some gold and silver ware.

The golden coins were dazzling, much more pleasing to the eye than the gold and silver ware.

However, Joanna was worldly too. She picked up a piece of the gold and silver ware with an ancient design and carefully inspected it.

"This looks like...something from two or three hundred years ago."

She set it down and picked up a golden coin, scrutinizing it under the flashlight.

"This seems like a privately minted coin...probably also two or three hundred years old."

Sean Knight corrected her from the side,

"To be precise, it’s most likely from more than three hundred years ago—"

Just then, as his forehead had touched the Crystal Skull, a series of information appeared in his mind, and his Sky Eye ability had also advanced!

Looking at the artifacts now, vague information such as the age of the antiques and materials of the jewelry would vaguely surface in his mind.

Although it was less detailed than text prompts and only vague information, it was enough to excite Sean Knight!

"This whole box of stuff must be really worth a fortune!" Joanna said, laughing. "I really didn’t expect that we’d find a treasure on this trip!"

Before Sean Knight could respond, Tom started calling for them,

"You two should take a rest if you’re not busy. The tide’s coming in; it’s best not to stay too close to the shore!"

Only then did Joanna notice the chill. Sean Knight said,

"Let’s go. We can talk more in the tent."

Joanna carried the oxygen cylinder while Sean Knight hauled the box towards their campsite.

"Eh? How did you suddenly become so strong?"

Joanna noticed this abruptly.

The gold and silver ware and the golden coins in the box would weigh at least a hundred kilograms.

Yet Sean Knight was carrying it single-handedly, seemingly with ease.

Sean Knight felt a jolt of surprise inside, knowing he had let the cat out of the bag. He swiftly raised his arm and said,

"You don’t know how much effort I’ve been putting into my training recently!"

Considering it a good thing for her beloved to have such strength, Joanna stopped probing further.

The two of them reached their tent, changed into normal clothes, and cleaned up a bit. Then, Sean Knight began to prepare dinner.

Despite being tired from a long day and having spent a long time underwater, and despite carrying the heavy box for quite a distance, Sean Knight felt energetic at the moment. Humming a tune as he grilled the seafood, he felt very happy.

With Joanna helping out, the two of them finally found some time to enjoy themselves.

After a hearty meal and some activity, it was late at night.

Initially, Sean Knight planned to stay up all night, but Joanna couldn’t keep up.

As the next morning dawned, Joanna opened her eyes to a bright day.

Sean Knight lifted the flap of the tent and said, smiling,

"Awake already? Breakfast is ready. Let’s eat!"

"When did you get up?" Joanna sat up, revealing her wonderful body.

Sean Knight immediately felt his animal instinct arising and they made love again.

Afterwards,

Joanna didn’t feel like moving anymore.

But Sean Knight felt something was off - did the energy from the Crystal Skull have such a huge after effect?

By the time the two of them returned to their yacht, it was already afternoon.

Looking at Sean Knight in high spirits and Joanna Davis with a lackluster energy, Tom was somewhat puzzled.

Usually, isn’t it the woman who’s full of energy and the man looking fatigued?

What’s different today?

Moreover, Tom noticed that when Sean Knight returned, he was carrying a big iron box!

Looking at the rust on the iron box, it clearly wasn’t new.

Could it be that they really found the pirate’s treasure?

But watching Sean Knight carry the box as if it were light, Tom began to question his suspicion.

Could it be just an empty box?

Tom was somewhat perplexed by Sean Knight.

Which young man with even a little bit of achievement wouldn’t boast about their accomplishments?

Tom often rented his yacht to young people for parties, so he had some understanding of most young people.

Some young people had found a few gold coins or centuries-old broken jars on remote islands.

After all, it is straightforward to get a metal detector these days.

These young people can often exaggerate minor successes to extremes!

Sean Knight, on the other hand, hasn’t revealed a word.

How strange!

When the yacht docked at the pier, it was already dark.

Moving things off the yacht one by one, Sean Knight left lastly carrying the iron box. Seeing the yacht yawn, Tom steadied Sean Knight:

"Be careful!"

He touched the iron box and was startled!

The iron box is so heavy!

By himself, he could not lift it with one hand!

Sean Knight smiled and took the box to the car.

He knew Tom’s probing intentions, but he didn’t mind.

The content of the box will be sold sooner or later. The news can’t be concealed.

After all, the most crucial things were in his spatial realm where he wouldn’t have to worry about others probing.

After dropping Joanna Davis at school, Sean Knight drove back to the villa.

The next day, Sean Knight drove a black, large Mercedes SUV to the Seven Axes Pub.

The car was one of those Jeremy Knight left behind, and it now belonged to Sean Knight.

Seeing Sean Knight, Mr. John asked with a smile:

"Have I heard right, you’re now a billionaire from the inheritance you received?"

"No, not only am I not, but I also owe $35 million in inheritance tax!"

"You don’t look like a person who owes over $30 million in debt."

"It’s because I am confident I will be able to pay off this debt soon." Sean Knight said while pulling out a gold coin and placing it on the table.

"You found this?" Sean Knight had not been to the pub for two days and had not gone to the port to bid on containers, so Mr. John guessed that he had probably gone treasure hunting.

"Yes, a batch of pirate treasure." Sean Knight lowered his voice. "I don’t want too many people to know."

"Do you need someone to sell it off? How much is there?"

"Four boxes, approximately more than 2,000 pieces, along with some gold and silverware."

As for the Crystal Skull, Sean Knight planned to keep it for himself.

Not only could that thing replenish his Sky Eye’s energy, but it also contained some mysterious elements.

It would be a shame to sell it.

"This gold coin... it seems it was minted a while ago. " Mr John picked up the coin and examined it carefully, "So many of them, and you don’t want to make a fuss...I’ll have to find a suitable buyer for you... just wait for my news."

"There’s also some other little knick-knacks." Sean Knight pulled a silver wine glass and a small golden bowl from his pocket and placed them on the counter, "About a hundred pieces or so..."

"That much? Did you loot a private museum, or have you found the legendary pirate treasure?"

Sean Knight just smiled and said, "Pirate’s. These antiques should offset part of the inheritance tax after they’re sold."

"Okay, okay, I’ll definitely find you a suitable buyer." Mr. John collected the items.
