"However, he was too dishonest. As soon as we gave him a slight opportunity, he counterattacked with a hidden gun but was quickly eliminated by us."

Jason Bull handed Sean Knight a piece of paper:

"This is extracted information about a possible treasure location, but its authenticity is dubious. Moreover, we loaded his belongings into a car and took it straight to the convoy."

"What about the body?" Lincoln Harrington asked.

"The brothers guarding there buried it during the night," Jason Bull said, "At that time, the gunshots drew the attention of a few Diggers, but they didn’t plan to cause trouble, so we left quickly.

"I guess the brothers left behind have already sorted out the things in the pickup truck, and I had them drive it straight into the forest and hide it. Basically, we didn’t leave many traces."

Sean Knight nodded and said:

"Well done! Both of you, the bonus for this mission increases by 20,000 dollars. Sergei..."

"I want this remote control," Sergei took out a drone’s remote control and said.

"Fine, it’s yours."

That settled the matter.

"Boss, let’s eat. This problem was well resolved. Little Jason is quite talented," Elijah Hastings said with a smile.

"Indeed." Jason Bull nodded, among his team members, there were indeed hidden talents, capable of standing out with just a little push.

It must be said, although some were scum, after military training, they turned into capable scum. But among them, some really were groomed into talents.

The subsequent work progressed orderly.

Subtly, Sean Knight directed the excavation work toward another location—a route to the Soviet Army positions and the warehouse location.

Sedding was gone, but Sean Knight vaguely felt as if there were still prying eyes around him, including in the sky above.

So, while the team members were digging, he would casually look around with a telescope, observing the surroundings and the sky.

As the excavation proceeded, they discovered increasingly more items.

Rusty weapons, bullet shells, ammunition boxes, tank tracks, and skeletons.

All these items were piled up together, growing into a larger heap.

Sergei could tell that Sean Knight and his men were not interested in these items.

Taking advantage of a break, he brought an elderly man from the town.

This man didn’t look Slavic, was of short stature, had a bent back, and greeted Sean Knight with a smile.

"Lev is a well-known scavenger nearby," Sergei explained to Sean Knight:

"You surely wouldn’t want to take these items with you. Lev likes to collect such things, refurbish them, and sell them to those who need them. I think you’d appreciate someone helping you handle these... finds."

Sean Knight was somewhat surprised by Sergei’s suggestion.

This young man is impressive!

Thoughtful and capable!

"Alright, let him take care of it." Sean Knight said with a smile, "I believe with you here, the price will be very fair."

Soon, Lev bought these items for 9,000 dollars.

The money wasn’t much, but it was divided among the team members, giving each a few hundred dollars—a modest bonus.

It had only been one day, and having harvested these, the team members were quite happy, their morale was even higher.

Although they knew Sean Knight would give them a handsome bonus after the mission’s conclusion, why not do more and earn more right now?

They were not like Sean Knight, Elijah Hastings, Lincoln Harrington, and Douglas Cooper, who after finishing a mission might have to wait a very long time for such an opportunity again.

Taking this chance to earn more was natural!

Moreover, it was just some effort, and you could earn in a day what others made in a month—where else could you find such good fortune?

"There are more and more Diggers in the town," Sergei reported while he was bringing supplies from the town with the team members, "Many world-famous Diggers have come here.

From what I have gathered, they have heard that a massive warehouse was found here and that the battlefield area is vast, mostly unexcavated, so they are preparing to work intensively."

Sean Knight nodded, not saying a word.

"Also, some of the Diggers have already unearthed extensive artillery positions not far from the town, yielding significant finds. So..."

Sean Knight understood. With such findings, even if the Diggers wanted to keep it secret, it was impossible to hide.

Thus, the news spread more and more, and naturally more people would flow into this place seeking opportunities.

Just like the Gold Rush in the West, the search for the New World, or pirates on the sea routes...

"We need to speed up our efforts," Sean Knight said to Elijah and the others, "I’ll go survey the terrain today to see if we can find a more suitable place."

Right as Sean Knight exited the tent, he immediately sensed again the feeling of being spied on.

The direction still came from above.

He waved, calling Douglas Cooper over.

"Douglas, there’s a drone in the sky."

Douglas Cooper was just about to look up when Sean Knight immediately stopped him:

"Don’t look up! Find a place to hide for now. I’ll see if I can draw that thing down, then be ready to take it out!"

"Alright!" Douglas Cooper nodded, the two passed by each other; Sean Knight found a patch of forest where he and a few team members crouched down and began digging.

The drone in the sky was primarily focused on Sean Knight, so when it saw him crouching, it immediately began to descend.

Douglas Cooper took a detour, first entered the tent, and did not come out.

The drone’s cameras also observed the surroundings, not detecting any threat, so it continued mainly monitoring Sean Knight.
