Chapter 638: Chapter 415: High-end hunters often appear in the form of their prey! (2)

Inside the first package they opened, the most noticeable items were two individual missiles.

They were the kind with shell and rocket integrated, disposable after the rocket was launched.

In ordinary people’s eyes, these would be considered "heavy weapons."

Of course, there were also the old-fashioned Type 69 rocket launchers, along with three rockets.

Opening another package, they found light weapons, including rifles, pistols, and various types of bullets.

In this package, there was also a gun box containing a sniper rifle.

"Take what you can use and are good with," Sean Knight said. "The captain just told us there will be quite a few boats ahead of us. We are not scared, but we have to be careful."

Elijah Hastings and others started dividing the weapons immediately.

Elijah and Douglas Cooper each took a man-portable rocket, while Lincoln Harrington took a bag containing the remaining Type 69 rocket launcher along with a set of three rockets.

Each person got a rifle, and Lincoln took the sniper rifle.

Everyone began loading bullets into their guns and adjusting things like the scope and gun strap.

Due to the weapons, the atmosphere on the yacht was a bit tense.

Then the satellite phone rang.

Elijah picked it up.

After listening for a few moments, he replied to the caller and hung up.

"The fisherman David Hawking said they’ve already arrived and asked where we are. I told him we’ll get there tomorrow," Elijah explained.

"Let’s not rest tonight and get there earlier to see what the situation is like over there," someone suggested.

The matter was settled that way.

Lincoln went to the driver’s cockpit and drove the yacht at full speed.

Elijah and the others returned to the crew’s cabin to rest.

Sean felt a slight sense of excitement and anticipation deep in his heart—

Dull days didn’t arouse any vigor; it was these potentially dangerous actions that made him feel quite good!

At night, the four of them took turns eating self-heating food to replenish their energy, then continued to take turns resting to maintain their best condition.

The yacht had one advantage: the engine noise was not very loud.

Compared to the sound of a motor fishing boat, it was much quieter amid the sound of the sea waves.

At dawn, the yacht reached a location about five or six sea miles from the predetermined sea territory.

"According to our country’s map, this area belongs to us. But according to the other side, beyond this point, it’s theirs," Elijah, who had studied the area, told Sean.

"There’s an island to the south, about twenty sea miles away, which they occupy," Elijah pointed out on the south side.

Sean had seen this in books.

After all, many islands in the South Sea were currently not under their control due to historical issues.

"Let’s slowly move forward and take a look," Sean said. "I can see some dark spots ahead. Are those ships?"

In the distance, there was a dark spot. Sean and the others had absorbed a lot of energy, allowing them to see it.

At an even greater distance, there were a few more dark spots, although they were completely invisible to ordinary people in the dark night.

"Let’s go," Sean tightened his grip on the gun in his hand and added, "If David Hawking asks, just say that we hurried up on our way here."

As they traveled, the seawater wasn’t very deep, at just about 40 to 50 meters.

However, even relatively shallow waters had many reefs and coral growth. Even if there were sunken ships, it would be tough to find them after being wrapped up in corals for hundreds of years.

As the yacht approached the dark spot, Sean could finally clearly see that it was a motorboat, similar to the one they had used when they bought fish previously.

The crew on the motorboat also noticed the yacht and shone a high-powered flashlight over.

Elijah checked the ship’s side number of the boat, then told Sean,

"It’s David’s boat."

He also said,

"Boss, you should go inside. Being on the deck makes you an obvious target. If they have night vision binoculars, it might be a problem..."

Sean took his advice and went inside.

The yacht stopped about 20 to 30 meters away from the motorboat.

David Hawking stood on the deck, shouting loudly,

"Is that you, Mr. Hastings? I didn’t expect you to arrive so soon."

"We wanted to get here early to make money sooner!" Elijah shouted back. "David, is the treasure right here?"

"It’s nearby," David replied. "I found the map hidden in the fishing goods I bought from fishermen on the other side. However, the map is not detailed and only marks the approximate location."

This seemed reasonable to Elijah and made sense.

"Alright, as soon as daybreak comes, we’ll begin searching the area..." Elijah replied.

David breathed a sigh of relief and asked,

"I still have some fishing goods on my boat. Do you want me to send some over?"

"No thanks, we’ve been rushing our way here and plan to rest for a while," Elijah declined David’s offer, waved his hand, and returned to the ship cabin.

David wiped the sweat off his forehead as Elijah left and entered the motorboat’s cabin.

The sound of sea waves drowned out the noise from both sides.

Sean spoke to Elijah when he came back,

"Something is off about this David Hawking. We need to be cautious."

"Alright," Elijah went to inform Lincoln and Douglas.

The four of them took turns resting during the night. Now, their spirits were high, and they were prepared.

When daylight broke, Elijah came back onto the deck and noticed the motorboat had silently moved about 200 meters away from them.

At that moment, from both sides, two fast-moving boats sped towards their yacht.

These two boats were very fast, reaching a location less than 100 meters away from the yacht in the blink of an eye, then slowed down and stopped.
