At night, the wind and waves at sea gradually began to pick up.
Hunter drove the rented yacht alone to a spot over ten kilometers away from the coastline.
After dropping the anchor and securing the boat at sea...
Hunter quickly put on his wetsuit, grabbed a speargun, flipped over the side of the yacht, and dived toward the seabed.
He had briefly dived into this area before to confirm things.
The average water depth was about sixty to seventy meters, with only a few areas exceeding a hundred meters.
Hunter's diving skill had reached LV4 after his continuous intensive training over the past few days.
It was already sufficient for treasure hunting in these waters.
Moving like a flexible fish, Hunter continued to descend toward the seabed.
He carried an underwater searchlight, and his vision far exceeded that of an ordinary person.
Therefore, even as he got further and further from the surface...
Hunter's vision wasn't affected much.
Soon, he saw the sand on the seabed.
Hunter immediately took out a set of specialized underwater metal detection equipment from his private space.
Holding it in one hand, he began to swim and inspect the area seriously.
Over the past two days, Hunter had seen Jared and his group stop their boat in this area multiple times.
He was almost certain there was definitely something underwater here.
However, because he didn't want to reveal that he was tracking Jared yet...
Hunter had always stayed about ten kilometers away from Jared's boat.
Consequently, he only had a rough location now.
But that was enough!
Hunter had excellent stamina, and he carried a large amount of diving equipment in his private space.
Once his oxygen ran out, he would immediately return to the surface.
After quickly changing to a new oxygen tank, he would dive back to the seabed to continue his search.
Hunter searched very meticulously and diligently; facing a treasure potentially worth hundreds of millions of us dollars, he was willing to spend money.
While still in Mexico, he had splurged over a million us dollars to buy a series of professional detection equipment.
It was with the help of this equipment that Hunter, after searching the seabed in this area for nearly an hour...
Finally, by relying on a few pieces of aircraft wreckage he found, he located the cargo plane that had crashed due to bad weather.
"Found it!"
Seeing the aircraft wreckage lying quietly on the seabed not far away...
An excited look immediately appeared in Hunter's eyes.
It wasn't that he had changed his mind and now had designs on the drugs—which were likely worth hundreds of millions of US Dollars—on the plane.
Rather, Hunter knew that as long as he found the wreckage of this sunken plane...
He could use it as a center point and search the surrounding area.
The pirate shipwreck, loaded with gold and silver treasure, which also sank to the seabed in the plot of Into the Blue...
Was not far from this sunken cargo plane full of drugs!
However, Hunter was in no hurry to find the pirate shipwreck full of gold and silver treasure.
Instead, after putting away the underwater metal detector, he held the reinforced speargun he had specifically bought in Nassau to deal with sharks.
He swam slowly toward the sunken cargo plane nearby.
In his memory of the Into the Blue plot...
This sunken cargo plane had long since become a den for marine life.
As a result, it had attracted many ferocious predators.
Hunter vaguely remembered that in the plot of Into the Blue, there was a fierce shark that frequently haunted the area around the wreckage of this sunken cargo plane.
In his memory, it seemed the girlfriend of the male lead Jared's friend was killed by a shark while secretly sneaking into the cargo plane wreckage to look for drugs.
With such a dangerous presence around, Hunter was also worried about being attacked.
So, he planned to take the initiative.
He would strike first and deal with the shark before it could threaten him.
Swimming cautiously, Hunter listened carefully for any possible movement around him.
As he got closer and closer to the wreckage of the sunken cargo plane, he became increasingly calm.
Hunter knew it was impossible for the shark to make no sound at all indefinitely.
Moreover, sharks aren't the kind of creatures that can stay perfectly still.
According to his research, sharks need to swim constantly to obtain more oxygen.
So, Hunter carefully sensed the nearby sounds, hoping to give the shark a harsh lesson when it appeared.
As it turned out, even by the time he swam into the cargo plane through the shattered front window...
Hunter hadn't seen the shark appear.
His arrival, however, scared away other marine creatures that had made the cargo plane their home.
Since transmigrating, he had personally sent off quite a few people.
Therefore, when Hunter entered the cargo plane wreckage and saw the remains of several drug traffickers who had once escorted the drugs...
He didn't panic at all, and didn't even spare them a second glance.
Since he hadn't found the shark nearby, Hunter simply stayed in the cargo plane for a while longer.
He inspected his way along the corridor and soon saw heavy boxes secured by ropes in the rear cargo hold.
Hunter was curious; it was his first time seeing so many drugs.
So he took out a crowbar from his private space and pried open a box with force.
He saw that inside the box were packages of white powder in well-sealed vacuum bags.
Not surprisingly, it must be the drugs.
Because of what the Chinese had endured in modern history in his previous life, Hunter had no intention of touching the stuff, even though he knew it was worth a fortune.
He only picked up a bag of white powder to look at it before putting it back.
Without encountering the shark, Hunter soon left the cargo plane that had crashed and sunken to the seabed.
He first floated to the surface to determine the approximate location of the sunken cargo plane using the yacht and a compass.
Then he dived back to the seabed and took out the metal detector again.
He began to search the surrounding area, using the cargo plane as the central coordinate.
After another hour or so, about a kilometer southeast of the crashed cargo plane...
A piercing beep began to sound from the metal detector.
Hunter quickly brushed away the sand on the seabed and saw a black object slightly larger than a palm lying there quietly.
He quickly took it out and looked at it carefully for a while before determining it was likely a silver flask.
It had only turned out this way because of an oxidation reaction caused by seawater corrosion.
With this discovery, Hunter's spirits instantly rose.
He accelerated his search of the area, and sure enough, more metal objects were found, including many silver and gold coins.
Furthermore, wooden structures from an ancient ship began to appear nearby.
Finally, after Hunter searched a few hundred more meters to the east...
A massive shipwreck, looking like an underwater beast, appeared in Hunter's field of vision.
The pirate ship, said to be loaded with a fortune worth at least hundreds of millions of us dollars, had been found by him... Phew... PS: New book released, recommending my old book [supernatural: i have a small world].
