The Informal Tomb Raiding Diary: She is the occupant of the tomb!-Chapter 212 - 213: Baby Is Unhappy but Won’t Say, Only Causes Trouble

Chapter 212: Chapter 213: Baby Is Unhappy but Won’t Say, Only Causes Trouble

The road from the shore directly to White Jade City has been opened, and the ones in white sent people into the city to check the situation, not rushing to call in the large troop.

I sent Water Ball to find Qinghan, because now it is the only one that can cross the camp’s perimeter security line without being detected by those rays and blown apart.

I asked Water Ball to convey to Qinghan to try to stop the Shield people from finding the passage under the palace’s secret room.

The Shell Ship is black technology from the Ancient era. After watching the Shield people show off for so many days, I also started to feel envious. The baby is unhappy, but the baby doesn’t say it, just acts mischievously!

Water Ball sneaked out of the camp to find Qinghan in the dead of night, and only returned before dawn.

I was wondering why it took so long. If it had been discovered, we would have surely heard gunfire or the sound of "welders" in action.

I pretended to get up to go to the toilet, bringing Water Ball to the makeshift latrine, the only place in the camp without cameras installed.

This makeshift latrine is barely big enough for one person to sit inside. It’s made of plastic panels. The one’s in white probably thought we couldn’t do anything inside, so there was no surveillance here.

Water Ball’s learning ability is strong. In just a few days, its ability to mimic foreign languages and Chinese characters has increased rapidly.

Initially, it could only write a few words, but now it can write complete sentences.

Qinghan sent it back with a message, only one sentence, saying he wants Water Ball to pilot the Shell Ship back to Undersea City.

Shield occupies the small island. As long as the Shell Ship is still under the island, they will find it sooner or later.

Guan Hai said he saw them testing a set of instruments. This instrument can detect deep underground, and through feedback data, create a three-dimensional structure map on the computer.

No matter how secret the mechanism of the palace’s secret room is, it cannot escape the ’eyes’ of this instrument. By then, the ones in white will discover the building under the secret room. Even if they demolish the palace, they will dig out the Shell Ship.

I quite like this little thing, but in the end, it’s an outsider and can’t disguise itself. Sending it back home might be the best choice.

The Shell Ship only requires manual operation during startup, the rest is all automatic driving. Give it some blood for charging the heart, and it can completely sail back on its own. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

However, I’m worried about the submarine that the whites brought along. The submarine has sonar. Will the Shell Ship be discovered? What if they fire and sink it?

I simplified my hesitation into two words: Submarine, Sonar.

Water Ball took these two words, ran out to convey the message, and I sat on the toilet without moving. This time it came back quickly, only bringing back one word: Re-discuss.

"Ah... if only we could sink that submarine," my evil side resurfaced but it was just a thought. If I leave the camp, I’d be discovered. Machine guns can’t really harm me, but the ones in white might do something to the leaders.

I patted Water Ball’s soft little head, put it back on my back, and got up to walk out of the latrine.

The next day, the one in white ordered people to take that detection instrument to White Jade City. We were like fat pigs being raised, eating and drinking every day, doing nothing.

Captain Jack’s hand is getting better, covered in thick plaster, but the crew’s mood is getting more and more depressed, as if living their last day every day.

The usually noisy and lively people, after witnessing their companions being mercilessly killed, became silent and gloomy.

In this world, big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp. Although human nature indeed has many bright spots, warmth, sentiment, kindness, and justice, it cannot escape this rule, the law of nature.

"Tch, there’s always a higher mountain," I looked at the crew pressed down by the ones in white, completely stripped of their fighting spirit, looking like withered chickens.

"Stop chatting, what’s the plan?" Bi Shi lightly kicked me.

"Weak, pitiful, helpless... no plan." I hugged myself, striking a meme pose.

"Do you have to wait until they kill everyone, realize you’re invulnerable, and then retaliate against them?"

At this moment, Bi Shi and I are standing at the tent entrance, the tent door not closed. Since being pressed onto the island, the crew haven’t left the tent except to go to the toilet.

Bi Shi feared they would hear, so she deliberately lowered her voice, glaring at me after speaking.

The camp doesn’t have any privacy. Anywhere with a camera can pick up sound. Inside the tent and nearby are all monitoring devices, only the entrance and the toilet don’t have them.

But if you talk normally, the monitoring device nearby can still pick up the sound. The one’s in white are quite cautious, and haven’t relaxed their vigilance over these days, with the monitoring still so strict.

"The leaders are all tired. Don’t we have to give them time to recover? What’s the rush, according to novel tropes, beat the son the father comes, beat the father the grandfather comes, never-ending fights. Rest, rest..."

"If a man takes no thought for the future, he will be in trouble before long. Don’t think I haven’t read books."

"Hiss... you, okay, I’m planning to take out the submarine first, let the leaders leave on the Shell Ship, sail out of the Sea of Sunken Ships, and then break automatic piloting. At that point, the ship won’t be particularly deep from the surface. Even if people can’t go up, Water Ball can. As long as it holds Professor Chen’s locator to surface, the leaders can hold on till our unit’s rescue comes."

Bi Shi was listening quite seriously in the beginning, but when she heard me say ’our unit’, she immediately pursed her lips, showing a very disdainful look.

"You don’t want Shield to get the Shell Ship, you want to give it to your new boss."

"The Shell Ship is secondary. Mainly, Pandora’s Heart cannot be given to them. Haven’t you heard of fish fighting each other? We’re all villains here, and I don’t allow them to be stronger than me!"

"Oh, guessed it."

"You really think I’m stupid, thinking of Pandora’s Heart as a gemstone necklace? Shield could buy as many gems as they want, but their gear and tools cost money like burning it. They don’t lack money. What they want is that eternal heart."

"Everything in heaven and earth has a lifespan, even the sun will die. Where’s immortality?" Bi Shi said this with more reflection than seriousness.

I don’t know if it was my imagination, but it felt like she wasn’t just randomly reflecting, as if there was a specific event that triggered her feelings.

"That’s just a metaphor. To live as long as heaven, isn’t that enough? To share the lifespan of heaven and earth, what a great thing."

"Ha, forget it, I’d rather not be the Great Sage Equal to Heaven."

We were quarreling when Captain Jack suddenly coughed. He came out from behind the tent, unlike the crew, he seemed not worried about losing his life.

"Sorry to interrupt, ladies," Captain Jack politely said.

His attitude now is completely different from before. I almost mistook him for a strange old gentleman.

"Have things, say things." I blurted out a string of foreign language.

Captain Jack was stunned for a moment, and Bi Shi immediately translated: "She said, if there’s something, say it."
