At this stage, all the chosen ones made the same choice, and they all planned to put the mermaid back into the sea after the salvage was completed.
Many chosen ones have not judged the so-called 'greed', but there are such cases in previous ghost stories.
As a ‘mentor’ this time, Pope took the initiative to explain to Ryan in order to let his teammates gain more experience.
“According to the mermaid, there are sea people in this world. Her words revealed a key message, that is, she lives in the Dragon Palace,
And look at her appearance , her status in the Sea Clan should be high. Let’s put her back. If we encounter trouble during salvage in the future, we may be able to get help from her.”
This is the Pope's understanding and the reason why most of the Chosen Ones are ready to release the mermaid.
No matter what, they are just passers-by in this world, and it is useless no matter how much wealth they gain.
If the wealth can really be taken out, it will definitely arouse the desire of many chosen ones, and they will not be so calm.
The chosen ones who can survive here have begun to integrate into their own identities and adapted to this world of ghost stories, and their judgments are naturally very accurate.
Those with inaccurate judgment have basically died in residential buildings in the deep sea.
Of course, except for the Pharaoh, he was the only chosen one who made a mistake in judgment and survived.
Seeing that Ryan understood, the Pope was very satisfied. This time the Nordic Snow Country really chose a teammate with good abilities in all aspects.
However, the Pope was still under great pressure because Ryan was too obedient and did not express his thoughts.
So most of the judgments are made by the Pope alone.
He didn't have Zhang Yangqing's terrifying experience, so he could only be cautious and constantly recall some of the details Zhang Yangqing told him before.
On the big screen of Dragon Kingdom, Zhang Yangqing refreshed his status and prepared to go into the water for the third time. This time the purpose was to salvage the golden statue.
At this time, the bearded man gave him another opinion.
"I can understand if you keep your promise and let the mermaid leave later, but what if she doesn't keep her promise? You can't catch her in the sea."
According to the bearded man's words The explanation is that it is better to lock her in a cage and wait until the golden statue is hoisted up before releasing her.
Zhang Yangqing has not considered this. This is a big gamble.
If you choose to believe her, she will have a favorable impression of you.
After letting her go, she might be helpful in her subsequent process.
If you lock her in a cage and release her after the salvage is completed, it will be equivalent to fulfilling each other's promise, and she does not owe anyone.
It’s hard to say whether we can help or not when the time comes.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Yangqing decided to let her go in advance.
The bearded man didn't bother to ask why now. He trusted Zhang Yangqing's judgment and arranged for his men to get the cutting equipment.
Not long after, the mermaid's cage was opened.
The next second, the mermaid jumped from the deck into the sea with a pop.
At this time, both the people on the deck and the people outside the big screen were panicking.
If the mermaid escapes directly, Tianshi Zhang will not be able to salvage the golden statue today, and the progress of the ghost story will be greatly reduced.
On Longhu Mountain, Xiao Xuan, who was watching the big screen, sighed: "It seems that the headmaster Tianshi lost the bet this time."
Su Muyu smiled slightly and said: "That's not necessarily true, you don't have to believe Yang Qing’s luck, but you can’t help but believe in his appearance.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a woman’s clear voice coming from the big screen of Longguo.
While swimming, the mermaid urged Zhang Yangqing to get down quickly.
Xiao Xuan couldn't hold himself any longer now. He almost forgot that this mermaid was a woman.
Female NPCs are generally not antagonistic, and they have a high favorable impression of their own heavenly master.
No wonder the headmaster Tianshi dared to bet, maybe he had observed something.
It was not very early now, so Zhang Yangqing did not hesitate and asked the crane to lower the hanging wire, and then he pulled the hanging wire and dived into the sea.
As expected, the mermaid swims very fast in the water.
She can even circle around Zhang Yangqing.
Zhang Yangqing followed her to a strange place, which looked like an underwater mountain.
But there didn't seem to be anything dangerous nearby. There were only a few very large caves, which were pitch black. No one knew what was inside, but no one dared to go in rashly.
The mermaid transmitted her voice to Zhang Yangqing’s mind in a special way. She told Zhang Yangqing that a powerful sea beast lived here and was the new overlord of this area. These sea beasts have an innate desire to collect treasures.
When the mermaid came here to take refuge, she saw with her own eyes the sea beasts removed the golden statue and hid it in this place.
As she spoke, the mermaid pointed to a cave in the deep sea mountain range, indicating that the treasure was inside.
However, she gave a friendly reminder that when entering the cave entrance of the deep sea mountain range, it is best to find a way to confirm whether the sea beast is at home.
This sea beast is a regional overlord. If it is disturbed, Zhang Yangqing may die.
Since she said so, Zhang Yangqing naturally knew that this sea beast was probably at home.
At this stage, Zhang Yangqing's disadvantage appears.
Here other chosen ones can cooperate with teammates and take advantage of Rule 2.
【Rule 2: Never get injured during diving, blood will attract terrible creatures. 】
The Chosen Ones can act separately. One Chosen One waits near the entrance of the cave, while the other Chosen One swims farther away and uses the blood to trigger the conditions for a sea beast to attack and attract the sea beasts out. Deep sea mountain cave entrance.
Then the Chosen One guarding near the entrance of the Deep Sea Mountains can successfully hoist the golden statue up.
This is the meaning of team formation, it requires the cooperation of the chosen ones.
But Zhang Yangqing is alone and it is difficult to do this.
But there are still ways.
Zhang Yangqing first asked the mermaid to follow him to the surface. He returned to the boat and asked the bearded man to hand over a bottle. He cut his finger with a dagger, dripped blood into the bottle, and then closed the lid. .
After simply bandaging the wound and putting on gloves, Zhang Yangqing jumped off the boat and returned to the sea.
"Please do me a favor. My blood can attract the attacks of powerful sea monsters. Take this bottle to a farther place, open the lid while ensuring your own safety, and then find a place to hide. Get up.”
Zhang Yangqing repeatedly warned the mermaid to pay attention to safety.
After completing this task, the mermaid can leave this place directly.
The mermaid nodded, this is not difficult to do.
Before leaving, the mermaid suddenly asked: "After you finish salvaging, will you come back here?"
Zhang Yangqing shook his head and replied: "The golden statue has a curse. , is a relatively dangerous thing. Once it is salvaged, we will return to the port. I don’t know where we will go next.”
After a brief chat, the two said goodbye at the sea level and swam to different places.
Time is running out now, and there is already a glimmer of light on the sea level.
Zhang Yangqing waited at the cave entrance of the Deep Sea Mountains for about ten minutes. A huge octopus-like creature surged out of the cave, causing violent fluctuations in the entire area.
This may be the main reason why there are no other creatures around.
It seems that the mermaid has acted according to Zhang Yangqing's plan.
Taking advantage of the sea beast's departure, Zhang Yangqing turned on the light on his helmet and dived into the deep sea mountain cave.
As the mermaid said, there are not only golden statues, but also some other treasures.
If these are salvaged, we will definitely gain a lot of profits.
And this is where the chosen ones can be greedy.
It has been mentioned in intelligence that gaining more wealth can be exchanged for better salvage ships and more powerful crew members.
But no one knows whether there will be consequences.
The bet is whether the chosen ones are brave enough.
Zhang Yangqing can also think of it, but he doesn't have so much time, and he doesn't have the cooperation of his teammates, so he only takes what he wants.
After binding the strong rope to the golden statue, he pressed the signal transmitter.
In less than three minutes, the golden statue was successfully lifted onto the deck.
When the bearded man saw the statue, disgust was written on his face.
Then he said: "I don't know who would spend money to salvage such an unlucky thing."
Hearing this, Zhang Yangqing said: "Actually, is there a possibility to pay for it? The person who salvaged the statue may be your regional chief himself."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone on the deck was shocked! Then there was a burst of indignation!
