Chapter 628: Chapter 410: Some People Always Fail to Grasp the Situation

Sean Knight went downstairs, planning to inspect the backyard and do some digging.

Besides the main hall, all other places in the courtyard had been opened to those who had been bound before.

The front gate of the courtyard was open too, with many people running to the beach to play.

Even though they were under the pressure of being kidnapped just a few hours ago, now they could frolic cheerfully, enjoying the fun of the blue sky, white clouds and beautiful flirty beach girls.

Contact had been established with the relevant authorities, and a boat had been dispatched to take these people home.

Excluding the guards, this large courtyard and the Big Island are actually great tourist spots.

Watching groups of young people, full of vitality, who had already shaken off their previous fear and begun curiously exploring the Big Island and nearby sea territory, Sean didn’t disturb them.

Many beautiful girls became the center of conversation and exchange. There were more men than women, and the girls who were tricked onto the cargo ship had high temperaments and looks. It was only natural for the young guys to take the initiative to flirt and pursue.

So Sean just took a glance and didn’t mind these energetic young people. After getting off the small building, he went towards the back of the building.

During the rescue, Elijah Hastings, Douglas Cooper and others had already said not to allow them to go to the main hall, so some young people curiously watched Sean, who was going downstairs, and wondered who he was.

However, most young people were grateful to Sean and his team for rescuing them, so they were only curious and didn’t go that way.

Sean arrived at the back of the main hall and came to the ruins. Being so close, he opened his Sky Eye and completely understood the specifics of this place.

The ruins were about the size of two basketball courts.

The surface buildings had been eroded or destroyed almost completely, leaving only broken walls.

The foundations had long been buried by dust and soil, and some tropical plants and shrubs were growing here. However, due to the good foundation, the growth of these plants was not as good as in other places.

About a meter under the floating soil on top of these ruins was a layer of stone slabs. Under the stone slab, there were several iron boxes hiding some silver coins.

If ordinary people found these things, they would probably think that was it.

However, in actuality, under these iron boxes was a layer of soil, and below that, another layer of stone slabs. Under the stone slabs was a secret chamber, about four by four in size. It held four big boxes, packed full. Two boxes contained gold coins, one box contained roughly cut gemstones, and another box contained finished jewelry.

The jewelry had brown blood stains on some of them. They were obviously plundered.

Looking around, he found that there was another secret chamber under a stone slab near the south of the ruins. However, this secret chamber was buried more shallowly, with two big boxes inside. The boxes were filled with sets of armor and weapons.

However, half of it had been taken away and the box was not full.

These items should also be considered antiques, which reminded Sean of the European ancient full-body armor worth millions that he had once dug out from a container.

These were clearly not up to par with those. So Sean wasn’t too interested in these two boxes.

He didn’t plan to dig now; the movement would be too noticeable.

With the thought of not revealing his riches, he planned to do the digging in the evening.

At this moment, the sound of people talking came from the side of the small building.

"Evie, after we return this time, we’ll never separate again. You can come to me, and I can go to you..."

The girl’s surprised voice rang out:

"Really? That’s great... I can’t stay here for one more day..."

"This place is pretty good, blue sky, white clouds, beach... isn’t this where we were planning to vacation?"

"But now I don’t want to stay here at all. I just want to leave quickly..."

"Don’t worry, I’ve heard that the ship coming to pick us up is on its way. We’ll be able to return home soon... Ah..."

Then came a series of panting sounds.

Sean felt it inappropriate to disturb the young couple in love at this moment, so he planned to leave in a different direction. But at this moment, the girl suddenly began to speak:

"Elijah, I don’t want to be here... I’m not in a good mood..."

"It’s okay... Evie, the environment here is so good, it’s been such a long time since we last got close... You don’t have to worry, this is the main hall, no one will come over..."

"No, no, I can’t..."

The girl was struggling, obviously resisting the man’s advances.

Sean wasn’t that much of a gossiper, as a bit of quarreling between a couple was quite normal.

He had already started walking in another direction.

Just at that moment, a "smack" sound made Sean halt his steps.

This was the sound of a slap.

"You filthy bitch! You must have been screwed by so many guys on the ship, It’s already gracious that I don’t loathe you. Why are you pretending to be pure and virtuous here?"

The man’s voice had become full of rage and arrogance.

Followed by the whimpering of the girl and a voice full of grievances:

"I haven’t...I’ve always been protecting myself..."

"Who would believe you if you said so?" The male voice was still full of malice, followed by the sounds of struggle and clothes being torn.
