Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Mayan script, renowned as one of the four primary writing systems globally, carries immense prestige. Of these systems, only Chinese characters have been preserved and continued to be in use to this day. The rest have disappeared, no longer in circulation. While the layperson might not find any significant difference whether ancient scripts have been deciphered or not, for researchers, it carries profound implications.
Steve’s interest was noticeably piqued by Luo Feng’s assertion. Having familiarized himself with the discoveries made here before his arrival, Steve was greatly surprised and impressed by Luo Feng’s remarkable ability to translate Oracle Bone inscriptions. However, he wondered, had Luo Feng also studied the Mayan script? Before meeting Luo Feng, Steve would have undoubtedly harbored skepticism. But given Luo Feng’s proficiency in translating Oracle Bone Scripts, Steve decided to tentatively believe in Luo Feng’s potential with the Mayan script, despite their differences.
“There is no issue, Mr. Luo Feng,” Steve assured him. ‘While I cannot make decisions on behalf of others, I can certainly relay your message.”
“I appreciate your help, Mr. Steve. Please, pass on my message,” Luo Feng responded, “Tomorrow, I will embark on my journey in search of the Divine Sea Stabilizing Needle. I extend an invitation to all of you present to accompany me.”
Witnessing Luo Feng’s confidence, Master Li was inwardly taken aback.
Steve’s eyes sparkled as he asked, “So, Mr. Luo, have you pinpointed the location of the Sea Stabilizing Needle?”
Luo Feng did not provide a concrete answer but merely smiled, “I seem to have consistent luck. All the artifacts I’ve previously found can attest to my good fortune.”
Hearing this, Steve gave a slight smile. He knew that Huaxia’s people were often modest. Luo Feng’s words suggested a firm belief in his abilities, but attributing his successes to luck was typical of the Huaxia’s style of speaking.
News of Luo Feng’s intent to commence his search for the Sea Stabilizing
Needle in five days rapidly spread online. The potential existence of the Sea Stabilizing Needle bore significant importance, both domestically and internationally. If it indeed existed, its historical significance would surpass even that of the Nine Zhou Ding, for it was the tool used by Yu the Great to control flooding. It was, indeed, a national treasure. Suddenly, this object captured the interest of treasure hunters globally, but more specifically, across China.
In these five days, Luo Feng was in daily communication with the military, discussing modifications to sonar and radar. However, his activities extended beyond that. Indications of romance between Luo Feng and Li Shishi could be spotted in the major hotels.
On the fifth night, Luo Feng nearly won over Qin Rubing. But due to an unexpected event, their romantic moment was limited to exchanging a few kisses before Luo Feng escorted Qin Rubing back to her home. While it was a pity, it did not pose an issue. It was merely a matter of time.
During these five days, Luo Feng had also invited Su Meiji to share a meal with him. They took a few intimate photographs together, and he daringly held her hand. As for anything else, they could afford to take their time.
As for the naive Japanese lady, she appeared to continuously vie for Luo Feng’s attention. However, Luo Feng feigned obliviousness towards her advances. He perceived her as a naiVe young woman who would still assist him financially, even if she ended up being deceived. He saw no need to change anything.
Those on board donned professional diving suits and oxygen tanks.
Indeed.
They had come from afar, aspiring to preemptively intercept the treasure hunters seeking the divine Ding River needle.
Moreover, the personnel from Odyssey Oceanic Company had paid for mining rights and announced their intention to salvage the Divine Sea Stabilizing Needle from the Luo River.
This news added much heat to the situation.
“It’s over, it’s over, Luo Feng is going to lose big time this time!”
“One wouldn’t expect such a formidable competitor to emerge this time around. I believe that Odyssey Company is bound to find the Sea Stabilizing Needle. After all, they are a dedicated treasure hunting team, the largest in the world, and their technology and resources far exceed what Luo Feng possesses!”
“However, you’re overlooking the fact that Luo Feng is a person knowledgeable in fengshui, a talent Odyssey Company does not have!”
“I understand, but this is under water, not on land. Underwater, geomancy techniques are entirely useless.”
“If it’s purely underwater, I still think Odyssey Company is far more professional than Luo Feng. Moreover, Luo Feng is alone, while they are a team. I have a feeling that Luo Feng might get overtaken by these foreigners!”
“If Luo Feng fails this time, I wouldn’t blame him. His competitor is just too formidable!”
“Why would the authorities grant authorization to these foreigners? Isn’t that a trap?”
“Perhaps they offered more money? Or maybe the authorities think that these foreigners can’t find such a thing?”
“It seems that the authorization only covers the Sea Stabilizing Needle; Odyssey Company can’t take anything else!”
“Hahaha, if they can’t find it, haven’t these foreigners wasted their money?” When Luo Feng heard this news, he was both surprised and speechless.
The Odyssey Company had also arrived?
Weren’t they supposed to be hunting treasures in the open sea?
Why were they meddling in our domestic rivers?
Originally, he thought that mentioning the Luo River wouldn’t draw many people, but unexpectedly, so many had come. All for an elusive object, their passion was maddening.
As for Odyssey’s capabilities, Luo Feng was well aware. The sea was so vast, much larger than any river. If they could find treasures in the sea, why wouldn’t they be able to in a small river?
Nevertheless, Luo Feng was determined to give it his all. He would not let foreigners take away such an item preemptively.
The Sea Stabilizing Needle was undoubtedly Luo Feng’s for the taking.
That evening, Luo Feng ordered his yacht to set sail. From this moment on, the hunt for the Divine Sea Stabilizing Needle began…..
