Obtaining Ross's consent meant that Lu Qi could board the ship and become a member of the archaeological team.

Therefore, he also received further information about this journey to find Yamatai. For example, all the crew members of the Endurance, including him, totaled nineteen people; the departure day would be half a month later.

In other words, he still has half a month to make complete preparations for this thrilling adventure...

...

The next day, Lu Qi came to "Huaji" and resigned from his boss.

The restaurant owner was very surprised by Lu Qi's sudden decision. He thought something had happened to Lu Qi and he was running away or something.

Lu Qi did not hide anything, but directly said that he was about to follow the archaeological team on an adventure at sea. He needed to learn some knowledge about sea travel in advance, and he also had to start preparing luggage for the trip.

Seeing that Lu Qi had decided to leave, the restaurant owner didn't try to persuade him to stay and just settled his salary for the past month.

During the settlement, the kind-hearted restaurant owner not only gave him an extra two hundred pounds in salary, but also patted him on the shoulder earnestly and told him: If he ventures back and needs to work, he can come back at any time.

These words made Lu Qi inexplicably moved.

You know, many times when people are in a foreign country, not everyone they meet is a good person...

Since Ross did not charge Lu Qi's shipping fee, plus one month's salary from working in a restaurant, the funds Lu Qi currently has on hand is fifteen hundred pounds.

This is the total net worth left after deducting the living expenses for the next half month.

He didn't even think about next month's rent!

In Lu Qi's opinion, if he can successfully leave Yamatai this time, any antique he brings out from there will be enough to make him a rich man!

Thinking of this, Lu Qi didn't leave any way for himself to escape, and directly pocketed the only fifteen hundred pounds, planning to make a big purchase!

At the first stop, he went to an outdoor equipment store and purchased a mountaineering bag, two sections of climbing ropes, an ice ax, as well as a first aid kit, a compass, a flashlight, a lighter, a glow stick, a walkie-talkie and other wilderness survival tools.

The [weak] state made him completely forget all the knowledge about survival in the wild. However, it could not stop him from going online to Google and making a list of the items he needed...

Since he had no firearms skills, nor the means or money to purchase firearms, Lu Qi simply gave up on the idea of ​​buying a gun and instead went to the black market a few blocks away to order a military crossbow.

As for how to find the black market, find a few local gangsters and beat them up, and you will know after asking...

A few days later, he received the crossbow in the mail.

The crossbow is completely black, about 80 centimeters long and 60 centimeters wide. It can be used by simply installing the crossbow head and gun body. It is equipped with a high-power sight and twenty pure carbon arrows.

Except for the crossbow butt, they are all made of metal. The crossbow string is connected to a pulley block. It weighs about 5 kilograms and is well made.

After getting the weapons and outdoor survival tools, Lu Qi only had the last three hundred pounds left.

The last stop for shopping is the supermarket!

When the supermarket cashier looked at the shopping cart filled with various cans and bottled water, he wanted to ask Lu Qi, are you planning to hoard supplies and hide at home to face the end of the world?

Then why don't you grab toilet paper?!

However, when he saw the two bundles of toilet paper in Lu Qi's hand, he was speechless.

Oh, that's okay...

Under the strange look of the cashier, Lu Qi put the supplies on the shopping cart, pushed out of the supermarket, found a deserted place, and put everything into the [Item Space]

Immediately afterwards, I pushed the empty shopping cart back to the supermarket and went home relaxed...

...

After completing the material purchase, Lu Qi was about to start the next exercise plan when he suddenly received a call from Samantha:

"Qi! I heard from the restaurant owner that you resigned?!"

"Yes, I forgot to tell you..."

"That's not important. What's important is, why?"

"It's hard to tell on the phone..."

"That's right, Laura and I are having a drink at home. Do you want to come over and get together?"

Hearing this, Lu Qi was stunned for a moment, and then hesitated a little, "Uh... wouldn't it be inconvenient..."

"It's okay. There are no other outsiders. It's just a gathering among friends. This is the address..."

Growing up in the UK, Samantha's personality is more outgoing and lively, and she doesn't look like a Japanese girl at all.

Even inviting boys to your home is not a big deal...

Since the girls don't mind anymore, why should he be so coy as a grown man?

Following the address, Lu Qi arrived at Samantha and Laura's apartment in the East End of London.

Laura and Samantha both welcomed Lu Qi's arrival.

Maybe it’s the prerogative of handsome guys?

After receiving a glass of red wine, the three of them ate the peanuts and potato chips that went with the wine, and started chatting while drinking.

During the chat, Lu Qi learned that there was a reason why Laura would become the world-famous archaeologist in the future!

After finishing boarding high school, Laura did not spend a penny of her family's large inheritance, nor did she follow family tradition to attend Cambridge University. Instead, she applied to University College London.

This decision resulted in her having to pay her own tuition. For this reason, she had to work several jobs while attending school.

Although it was a difficult decision, it also helped Laura develop a more pragmatic style and develop a cooler head.

Not only that, she gave up the aristocratic life at Crawford Manor and chose to share an apartment with her best friend in the East End of London, just to bring herself closer to the library and museum...

Although Laura was only 21 years old at this time and had just graduated, she looked like a lively and outgoing beautiful girl. However, this slightly delicate body already contained huge power and a burning adventure.

soul!

She was tired of staying in the musty library every day, fantasizing about those ancient documents. She wanted to go on an adventure herself and explore the mysterious things recorded in the documents!

Perhaps, this is also the reason why Laura participated in this archaeological trip to Yamatai...

...

Click!

With the sound of the key twisting, Lu Qi, who had just finished the party, pushed the door open and threw the key into the bowl on the entrance table.

The apartment [System] arranged for him is very similar to the apartment he lived in Los Santos.

Same small, same warm.

Turning on the light, taking off his coat and throwing it on the sofa, Lu Qi went straight to the bathroom and washed his face before feeling better.

Although the alcohol content of the red wine was not high, his face was still a little hot after drinking almost a bottle.

Thinking of Laura's drunken little face when sending him out, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and smile.

After walking out of the bathroom and into the living room, Lu Qi saw a tactical dagger on the coffee table. He picked it up and threw it against the wall.

There was only a "touch" sound, and the dagger was suddenly inserted into the heart of the dart board on the wall!

Seeing this, Lu Qi couldn't help but shrugged and murmured to himself:
Chapter completed!
