Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Uesugi Eri?”
“She’s the rising star currently sparkling in the Japanese film scene!” Luo Feng identified a familiar face among the female guests.
Her beauty was undeniable.
Although he recognized the other women as well, none piqued his interest like
Erl.
“Mr. Luo, this is a promising excavation site! When shall we begin?” The 3D map shimmering on the computer screen demanded their attention.
The city lord inquired.
“Tomorrow afternoon it is!”
Luo Feng’s response was confident and swift.
The next day, guided by the film crew, Luo Feng, armed with a sturdy pickaxe, embarked on his adventure into the mountains.
‘Good morning, friends!”
Luo Feng greeted his domestic viewers with hearty enthusiasm.
However, when it came to the Japanese audience, his greeting was curt and superficial.
“Do you recognize that gear? Is Old Luo setting out for a treasure hunt in
Japan?”
“Hiroshima? They should have picked a different city!”
The chosen location stirred no excitement among the viewers.
After all, what could one possibly excavate from a city with such an insignificant historical backdrop?
Yet, the netizens from Japan couldn’t contain their anticipation.
Soon enough, Luo Feng reached a vast open area. It was a recently planned suburb of Hiroshima, boasting a magnificent view and expansive land.
“Activate level three scanning!”
Luo Feng instructed his system and fell into a contemplative silence.
As anticipated, dozens of treasure locations popped up.
It was an odd sight in a place like this.
Intrigued, Luo Feng noticed a peculiar disturbance in the grassy terrain.
He bent down and began to dig.
[ Ding, you have dug up gold! ]
Gold? Luo Feng was taken aback. They had indeed buried gold! An abrupt silence descended upon the online spectators.
“This is obviously staged, isn’t it a bit too overt?”
“Cut them some slack, what historical treasures can Hiroshima possibly offer?”
The local audience mostly tuned in for the amusement factor.
Unfazed, Luo Feng remained silent and continued his excavation.
In quick succession, he unearthed ten gold bars.
With every discovery, the female guests and host showered Mr. Luo Feng with surprised exclamations and praises.
Uesugi Eri, in particular, couldn’t contain her excitement.
And Luo Feng, he relished these surprised reactions, especially from a woman as beautiful as Eri.
The following day, Luo Feng changed his location to a farm.
Just like a scene from a manga, the view was picturesque.
This was not the spot the crew had directed him to, where they had stashed the treasures.
Luo Feng had picked this location himself.
The change in plans unsettled the crew. They worried that straying from the designated location could result in a fruitless dig, which could potentially be embarrassing. After all, millions of eyes were watching their program.
“Old Luo, you should head back. There’s nothing valuable in Japan.”
“Activate level three scanning!”
Ignoring the advice, Luo Feng initiated the scan.
All he discovered was a solitary wallet.
The ground was moist, barren, and seemingly devoid of any historical artifacts.
“Was this buried here? Or did I stumble upon it?”
Suddenly, Luo Feng’s gaze locked onto a spot teeming with treasure markers.
“These can’t be their buried trinkets!”
“I chose this spot randomly!”
Luo Feng wasn’t one to believe in coincidences. These treasures were certainly indigenous to this location.
As he approached the marked spot, he feigned a few digs.
Half an hour later, he was standing above the gold-marked location.
He picked up his pickaxe and started digging.
After twenty minutes, a soft thud echoed. [ Ding! You have unearthed a basement! ]
[ Valued at 4 billion! ]
Holy smokes!
Luo Feng’s head spun, not from the exorbitant valuation, but from the possibility of such a grand basement existing in Japan.
Was this really Hiroshima?
“Did the sound change? Did he find something?”
“I can’t tell, did the crew plant something for the host?”
“That seems plausible. Without the aid of the crew, he’d have nothing to dig up in this history-deprived place!”
“Isn’t it evident? Back home, the host could unearth antiques just about anywhere. Now, that’s real talent!”
“I hope it’s not another gold bar. Even if it’s scripted, they could at least introduce some variety!”
Meanwhile, Hiroshima’s city lord had been observing the live broadcast intently.
After all, he was the one who had personally extended the invitation to Luo Feng.
He couldn’t afford any blunders.
Luo Feng, there’s nothing here for you to excavate there. You should stick to the designated spots. Why are you making this so difficult?
If you come up empty-handed, the netizens will lose interest.
Hiroshima lacks history and has been ravaged once. It’s unlikely you’ll dig up anything of value.
Whether it’s ancient tombs or other relics, if he could find anything, it would truly be a testament to Luo Feng’s abilities..
