Chapter 1364: Chapter 668 This is also a big fish!

The next warehouse door was secured with double locks. Without guessing, Sean Knight knew there must be good stuff inside!

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have double locks!

However, when the Sky Eye scanned it, he was startled!

After unlocking both locks, Sean Knight did not immediately move away as he opened the door; instead, he quickly stepped to the side.

A skeleton fell out directly from the door, scattering bones all over the ground!

Sean could tell that the skeleton had been shot in the chest, a bullet stuck in the rib cage; it had now fallen to the ground as the bones scattered.

This person had been shot and then locked inside the door.

He initially thought there would be nothing inside the door, but the results from the Sky Eye were obviously not the case.

The person who shot this man didn’t take away, or at least didn’t fully take away, the items in this warehouse.

And the contents inside came as a big shock to Sean!

The warehouse was small, only a few dozen square meters, which was indeed very small compared to the previous warehouses which were hundreds to thousands of square meters.

But the items scattered all over the ground made Sean very happy.

The floor was littered with gold and silver ornaments, some boxes had been overturned, and these items had rolled out from those boxes.

Sean guessed that these items must have been plundered from the common people in the German-occupied areas.

There were about a dozen of such boxes piled up here.

The warehouse contained not only the plundered spoils of war but also two empty boxes, as well as several of the same size, filled with golden bars.

There were also boxes filled with Gold Marks and Rubles.

It seemed that the logistics warehouse also had to undertake the task of transporting and storing military funds at that time.

After all, unlike now, electronic payments weren’t available.

This was indeed a boon for Sean.

He had thought that the earlier bullets were the biggest gain of this trip. Now, the items here were worth much more than what he had previously obtained.

Taking everything available from here, Sean felt inspired and refreshed.

After some thought, when leaving, Sean gathered up the skeleton and put it back into the small warehouse before leaving.

He had thought about placing some money in the skeleton’s embrace, but considering that this place would surely be discovered later, the money would have been preserved well before the door was opened.

But now, it would likely decay soon if placed inside, and might even cause the skeleton to be disturbed again, so he decided against it.

He headed towards the innermost warehouse—which, according to the tunnel layout and setting, should have been the original outermost warehouse.

The items piled inside were extremely messy.

All were spoils of war. Massive batches of Soviet firearms were haphazardly stacked together. There were also mortars, light infantry cannons, and some bullets and shells.

Since this part of the warehouse was at the outermost and highest location, it hadn’t been soaked by water, and even the ground was relatively dry. Sean hesitated for a moment, then selectively picked up some firearms, cannons, and bullets.

With this, Sean’s journey was considered complete.

Unable to inventory his gains immediately, he followed the original path and refilled the dug-out soil.

Carrying tremendous satisfaction, Sean returned to his tent, truly happy this time.

Outside there was still no sign of activity. Checking the time, it had taken almost three hours in total.

Inventorying his gains, the brand-new bullets, Ruger Pistol, Mauser Pistol, People’s Pistol; 98K Rifle, G43 Rifle; MP Submachine Gun; MG43 Machine Gun and more, were worth several hundred million dollars.

The gold and gold and silver ornaments, once appraised, were probably worth tens of millions of dollars. As for the currencies of that time, although they were not insignificant in quantity, they were admittedly not in circulation anymore and could only be converted into cash with the right buyer.

As for the other items, added together, they could also net several hundred thousand dollars.

Not bad at all!

Sean was extremely pleased.

And this was just a part of the haul—because he had scouted that there was another Soviet warehouse nearby. The contents there were a bit more uniform, but the gains were likely just as significant.

As for how much he could squeeze out of Sedding, that was considered chasing the wind and catching at shadows, an extra gain.

If there was something, good; if not, it wasn’t a pity.

Daybreak came, and Sergei and two team members also returned.

Sedding did not come back with them.

The three men arrived at Sean’s tent, and along with them were Elijah Hastings and his two companions, at Sean’s request.

"We found Sedding in the woods outside Little Town, negotiating with two groups of Diggers’ team members. We caught him red-handed,"

The two team members explained the series of events clearly.

Sedding indeed had designs on Sean’s side. After the drone incident, he didn’t dare to deploy another drone but instead incited those Diggers to trouble Sean and his team.

The team leaders of the Diggers saw the actual person coming and immediately left—the two team members openly carried firearms, clearly not to be messed with, and they were not without tact.

Initially, Sedding pretended to comply, but after the two team members beat him up and then Sergei found the drone remote control, he immediately pulled out a gun, planning to resist forcefully.

However, he clearly underestimated the two team members’ skills. His arm was promptly broken, his gun was seized, and then he was interrogated.

"This Sedding is an intelligence dealer, an old weapons broker, a speculator, and an ardent nationalist," team member Jason Bull said:

"He roams this land, his main job being to buy cheap and sell dear, then through deceitful means gathers intelligence, which he sells at high prices to those powerful Diggers.
