Chapter 508: Chapter 351: Found the Mechanism Under the Lake

At this time, the security captain finally woke up his two subordinates.

However, they couldn’t find out anything. The two sentries could only confirm that they were attacked in an instant.

They had no idea who attacked them, how many people, or what they looked like!

The security captain felt an urge to hit someone!

At least his subordinates had been soldiers, so why didn’t they have any alertness?

Of course, he didn’t know what kind of opponent his subordinates were dealing with!

Now hearing Bellamy’s order, he immediately grabbed his gun and led the search in the forest with his men.

Sean and his team had woken up early and noticed the movement in the camp.

However, the direction the security captain was searching was not towards where Sean and his team were, and the distance was quite far, so they weren’t worried about being discovered.

If they had dogs or other animals skilled in tracking scents, it might have been possible to find Sean and his team. But with just a few people, there was no way they could find them.

Not to mention Elijah and the others had great anti-tracking abilities, and Sean himself had also taken a big detour, returning from the tree-tops, so it was impossible for them to be discovered.

The security captain searched all morning without finding anything. He only managed to hunt a few animals before returning to the campground.

Kickapoo initially planned to leave, but when the security captain went out to search for hidden enemies, he stayed.

Now seeing that the security captain was unsuccessful in his search, he immediately ordered his tribespeople to pack up!

Bellamy originally wanted to use any clues found by the security captain to persuade Kickapoo to stay.

But now that there was nothing to show, he had no choice but to try and persuade them with empty words:

"Kickapoo Chief, you’ve seen it for yourself. These people only dare to sabotage secretly and they don’t dare to hurt people directly. It’s likely that they don’t have many people, which is why they can only steal supplies and cause destruction."

"However, even if it’s done by humans, even if they have fewer people, my people can’t handle these repeated incidents," said Kickapoo, with a strong determination to leave.

Bellamy changed his tone and said:

"Chief, I think now is actually the most crucial time. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be so desperate to cause destruction. It’s very likely that we’re close to finding the exact location of the sacrificial implement..."

Kickapoo pondered for a moment, and found Bellamy’s words to be reasonable.

"Even if you want to leave, walking out of the forest like this would be very troublesome," said Bellamy, seeing that Kickapoo’s attitude was wavering. "Look, I’m going to contact the helicopter right away. Then I’ll have the helicopter stay here for a while. If there are any more problems, it’s not too late for you to leave on the helicopter, right?"

Kickapoo agreed to stay, and Bellamy breathed a sigh of relief.

If Kickapoo left, then his treasure hunting team would be deemed illegal, and he didn’t want that.

However, he vowed that if he could catch the pesky rat hiding in the shadows, he wouldn’t let him go easily!

That night, Bellamy called the security captain and gave him some instructions.

When Sean and the others arrived near the camp, his Sky Eye scanned the area and found that there were ambushes and traps set up around the camp. He immediately called off Elijah and the others’ actions.

"Since the other side has set traps, it can only be aimed at us. Let’s go back to sleep and let them stay hidden."

The four of them returned to the hollow place and went to sleep peacefully.

The next morning, the empty-handed security captain and the anxious Bellamy received the helicopter.

This time the helicopter didn’t leave.

Bellamy had the security captain on guard for three days, and during these three days, the boat was repaired.

For three days, there were no attacks.

The security captain complained bitterly, saying that if this continued, his men would protest.

Bellamy had no choice but to give the security personnel a night off.

That night, something happened.

Supplies were lost again, leaving no trace behind. The helicopter was damaged, and the boat once again sank into the lake.

Kickapoo could no longer afford to stay and insisted on taking his tribespeople to leave the cantonment on foot, retreating from the forest.

Bellamy had no choice, as the other party had more people and power. He didn’t dare to forcefully keep them there.

In the end, he had no choice but to ask the pilot to fix the helicopter.

That was something that happened a day later.

With no food left, they had to catch fish, dig for wild vegetables, and hunt.

Fortunately, the security team managed to catch some game, so they didn’t starve.

The next day, when the helicopter was repaired, everyone got on board and hurriedly left. They didn’t even bother taking their tents with them.

Sean and his team watched as the helicopter circled in the air before leaving, finally breathing a sigh of relief.

At last, they managed to get rid of those people.

"Alright, now we can go and salvage the things without any worries."

"Maybe they’ll come back," said Lincoln.

"Let’s go burn their tents," said Elijah. "So they won’t have a place to stay when they return."

"Why burn them?" Douglas interjected. "Just bring them over, set up the tents on our side, and they won’t be able to find them in the forest anyway."

"Alright, let’s do both. Tents are plenty, and it’s not possible to bring them all back anyway," said Sean, now in high spirits. "This task is up to you three. I’ll go to the lake and see if I can find any treasures."

Elijah and the others naturally had no objections.

Sean’s main purpose for diving was to verify his hypothesis.

He quickly dived to the center of the lake and started searching around.

With no one else around, Sean could calmly search underwater.
