Chapter 801 Treasure Hunt 1
Jiang Hao grasped the cracks in the rocks, exerted force on his feet, and kept moving upwards. At the beginning, this section of the road was easy, but it became more and more difficult as he went up.
The two had already climbed halfway, and there was a mountain wall in front of it that was almost straight, and there were very few places to climb. Jiang Hao looked up, stopped, took out a lock hook from the space and hung it on a In the crevice of the rock, and then fasten the rope.
If the camera zooms out, you will see that there are two small figures hanging on the steep and straight mountain wall at the moment.
Human beings are really insignificant in the face of nature.
Jiang Hao once watched a documentary called "Unarmed Rock Climbing". Although there were no special effects or fighting movements, that documentary definitely made people's heart jump, their hands and feet sweated, and their adrenaline surged.
But what Jiang Hao admired more was the photographer of that documentary, so the photographer of this film won the Oscar for Best Documentary.
Looking down at Laura under him, "Laura, are you okay?"
Laura was a little out of breath at the moment. She was really tired. She had never felt so tired before, but she knew that there was no turning back when climbing a mountain. You had to climb up or fall down. It is said that the death rate of freehand rock climbing is 50%!
"Phew, I can still hold on." Laura said out of breath.
Jiang Hao looked at Laura's appearance and said, "I've fixed it. You fix it with a climbing pick. Let's take a rest and replenish our energy."
"OK."
Laura inserted the climbing pick into a gap, pulled hard, felt all right, then put the rope on her body, and then relaxed.
"Laura, eat something."
Jiang Hao turned back and took out the huge backpack, took out two Snickers bars, put them on his feet, stretched them down and handed them to Laura, who took the Snickers bars from Jiang Hao's feet, opened them and started to eat. , she really needs to replenish her physical strength now.
"There's still water." Jiang Hao put down the kettle again.
Laura took a few sips from the kettle, looked up at Jiang Hao above, and she felt infinite admiration in her heart.
He only carried a set of bows and arrows on his body, which was equivalent to empty hands, but at this time he was already tired and sore, but Jiang Hao had to carry a large luggage bag with food, guns and ammunition in it. The package weighed more than 30 kilograms Heavy.
And with an assault rifle on his back and a combat vest full of clips and grenades, he's the equivalent of rock climbing with a guy on his back.
She has never heard of anyone in this world who can do this, she is simply superhuman.
The two rested for about 10 minutes and continued to climb. Just as Jiang Hao was about to grab a crack in the rock and tried to use his strength, there was a sudden exclamation from below.
"what!"
It's Laura.
Her physical strength dropped so badly that she lost her grip and at the same time slipped and fell down suddenly. Laura yelled in shock. At this moment, her body shook violently, and the rope connected to Jiang Hao He fixed her in mid-air, and then swayed again.
Jiang Hao only felt a strong force coming from him, and his body was also shaken. His arms clasped the gap forcefully, trying to stabilize his body.
"Laura, don't worry, stop on the rock wall." Jiang Hao shouted.
Laura calmed down for a while, and quickly fixed her body, because she knew that shaking around would only make Jiang Hao work harder. Finally, she grabbed the mountain wall and pressed herself against the rock with force. Only now did Laura dare to open her mouth to breathe.
"Huchi~huchi~~"
Laura was really terrified just now. For a moment, she thought she was going to die.
"Laura, it's okay, take a break, it's only one-third of the time, and it will be successful soon." Jiang Hao encouraged loudly.
"Okay, huh~~, I'm fine." Laura said panting.
The more difficult it is to climb at the back, it is more because the physical strength has dropped too much, and Jiang Hao has also consumed a lot of physical strength. Fortunately, his physical fitness has been strengthened, and his spiritual power can make his physical strength longer. Dare to climb with a backpack and a person with bare hands.
finally~
finally~
Jiang Hao climbed to the top, turned over and pulled the rope hard, pulling Laura up the cliff. Laura lay on the rock all of a sudden, feeling like she didn't want to move anymore.
"Jon, I feel like I've accomplished a feat that I'm sure I'll remember for the rest of my life," Laura gasped.
"Perhaps you can write a book when you go back. It's called 'Exploring Queen Himiko, Amaterasu of Japan'. It is estimated that many people will be willing to read it." Jiang Hao said leaning on the side.
"Writing a book? Maybe it's a good idea." Laura said immediately.
The two rested for a while and looked into the distance. They could already see the ruins of the imperial city in front of them. There were ruins everywhere, but there were also many palaces hidden in the mountains. Laura exclaimed, "This place is so big!" .”
"Himiko used to be the king of the whole of Japan. Yamatai Island is where she ruled Japan. It is not surprising to build a city. Have you seen the castle still standing on the top of the mountain? It should be the palace of Queen Himiko." Jiang Hao pointed to the mountain top in the distance and said.
The two of them rested for a while, and ate some food to replenish their strength. The physical exertion of the two of them was too serious just now.
"Let's go, let's continue to go to Wangcheng." Jiang Hao said.
Laura stood up, but at this moment, dense gunfire sounded suddenly from a distance, and there were constant shouts of killing, and the two of them were stunned.
"It should be that the mercenaries fought those survivors," Jiang Hao said.
Looking at the repaired suspension bridge, Vogel was very happy, "Order people, transfer the material over there, we will start exploring the royal city tomorrow."
After finishing speaking, he turned to Professor Jones next to him and said, "Professor, don't you like archeology? Then I will give you a task to help me collect all valuable things. I believe that there must be a lot of valuable things in Queen Himiko's royal city and palace." items, those antique collectors will be willing to pay a lot of money to buy them."
Then he ordered a mercenary team leader next to him, "Ben, you lead a team to follow Professor Jones. Also, assign 30 migrant workers to the professor. How much bonus you can share depends on the next harvest."
"Vogel, even if you can take these antiques and treasures out, they don't belong to you, but to the Japanese government." Professor Jones said.
Vogel approached Professor Jones with a grin on his face, "That's my business, your task is to help me collect treasures."
Professor Jones looked at Vogel and could only nod helplessly.
The materials were transported across the bridge overnight, an open space was found on the opposite side of the canyon, and a base was stationed again.
the next day,
Waking up in the morning, the mercenary team began to get ready. Today, they will formally explore Queen Himiko's royal city. The mercenaries are full of magazines, and some are carrying combat backpacks and heavy weapons.
Vogel took the lead and led dozens of people into the royal city. Looking at many ruins that had collapsed, Vogel became more and more happy. This shows that the ruins should be real, and the legend of Queen Himiko may also be true .
Whoosh~~
"puff!"
A bow and arrow flew out from nowhere, and shot through the neck of a mercenary viciously. The mercenary's eyes widened, and he grabbed the shaft of the arrow with his mouth making uh-uh-uh sounds, blood gushing out instantly. Then he fell to the ground with a thud.
"Attention, enemy attack!"
The captain of the mercenary regiment immediately shouted, and all the mercenaries stood on guard.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
"Bagou, Bagou."
In the dense rain of arrows, there were a few sounds of Japanese 38 rifles from time to time.
"Counterattack!"
With an order, these mercenaries began to fight back. They have experienced many battles. As long as an aborigine dares to stand up and shoot arrows, there will be more than a dozen guns aimed at him and shoot wildly. Often that guy will be beaten sieve.
The aborigines lack weapons. Although there are some firearms, they are all old ones, such as the guns of the Japanese soldiers in World War II, and there is not enough ammunition. Many of them still use bows and spears.
The reason for the ambush in the royal city was that they were basically slaughtered against these mercenaries in the wild. In the ruined royal city, they could use the narrow and chaotic space to ambush those mercenaries.
"Bastard, these damn bugs." Vogel cursed, and immediately ordered the mercenaries, "Scatter, wipe out all these guys, and don't let them affect our treasure hunt."
The mercenaries dispersed immediately, and started a fight with the survivors in the royal city. Gunshots and explosions were heard continuously throughout the royal city, and wooden houses were set on fire from time to time, emitting bursts of smoke and flames.
Jiang Hao and Laura looked at the situation over there from a distance, and then Jiang Hao said, "Those people are fighting, let's go directly to the palace on the top of the mountain."
