London, inside a penthouse in a tall building.

A gray-haired man wearing black clothes with a turned-up collar stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, shaking it gently, overlooking the bright night view of London, and sighed in a low voice:

"What a beautiful picture..."

After saying that, he slowly turned around and moved his eyes towards a man with bandages on his thighs and shoulders.

It was this incompetent subordinate who brought back bad news that instantly shattered his good mood.

Walking back to the living room, he put the red wine in his hand on the coffee table. The gray-haired man sat on the sofa and said casually:

"Elke, although you failed, considering the information you brought us back, I will forgive your small failure..."

After a pause, the gray-haired man waved his hand and said in a deep voice:

"Go down..."

Hearing this, the man who had just rescued his life from Crawford Manor was relieved, turned around immediately, and limped out of the apartment...

After watching his subordinates leave, standing next to the sofa, a man with a cold expression and a muscular figure immediately asked the gray-haired man on the sofa:

"Boss, do you want me to take someone over there, kill that kid, and bring that bratty Crawford girl in front of you?"

Hearing this, the gray-haired man sitting on the sofa shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"No, this is too high-profile and will only cause unnecessary trouble."

If Laura were here, she would definitely recognize this gray-haired man as the Commander of the Holy Trinity she saw at the Tomb of the Prophet—Constantine!

The entire Holy Trinity organization is like a behemoth shrouded in darkness. And Constantine, the apparent commander, is just the tip of the iceberg...

Taking off the leather glove on his left hand, Constantine unconsciously rubbed a scar on the back of his hand. Constantine's tone was playful, but his eyes were full of coldness:

"I didn't expect that this Asian boy would cause us trouble..."

In fact, as early as the moment the Endurance and his crew returned to London from the Dragon Triangle, Holy Trinity had set its sights on these survivors.

In particular, Laura and Lu Qi, the two discoverers who revealed the Yamatai ruins to the world, were included in the list of key concerns by Holy Trinity.

Compared to Laura, a descendant of the Crawford family, Lu Qi's background is even more clear.

A Chinese who has lived in London for more than ten years is poor and has accomplished nothing. He has worked many jobs. The last job was as a cook in a Chinese restaurant...

Judging from the investigation report, this is a pawn not worth mentioning.

Even so, Holy Trinity did not take it lightly and sent a team of people to monitor it.

However, the change of things caught them off guard...

After becoming a member of the International Association of Archeology, Lu Qi, who became a rising star in the archaeological world, immediately accepted ITV's proposal and became the host of "Wild Adventure".

For the filming of the program, he began to lead the filming team to various no-man's lands around the world to film the program.

This makes it even more difficult for Holy Trinity to closely monitor it.

As Laura's research on the Tomb of the Prophet deepened, Holy Trinity gradually focused its surveillance on Laura, while unknowingly ignoring Lu Qi's existence.

However, what they didn't expect was that the plan that was supposed to be a sure thing tonight was ruined by this kid who suddenly appeared.

Moreover, this bold guy dared to deliver a message and provoke them!

"Boss, what should we do next? Is the news about that kid false?"

Hearing the doubts from his men, Constantine shook his head and expressed his opinion:

"I don't think so. Since he did this deliberately, he must be trying to lure the snake out of the hole and lead us to find them. Besides, even if the news is false, we can follow them and find the news about the sacred source..."

"Notify others and get them ready. Let's go to Siberia!"

"yes!"

As soon as his confidant left, Constantine received an unexpected phone call.

On the other end of the phone, a magnetic male voice came:

"Constantine, how is the situation?"

"The location of the sacred source has been confirmed. If the ancient artifacts are there, we will definitely find them!"

"Very good, Holy Trinity has confidence in you..."

"Where's the Crawford girl?"

Hearing this, a look of solemnity flashed in Constantine's eyes, and then he said in a deep voice:

"Don't worry, everything is under control..."

...

In the country of Mao, in northeastern Siberia, there is a small town called "Konik".

After preliminary preparations and a journey that lasted more than ten hours, Lu Qi and Laura arrived at this remote town closest to the Verkhovyansk Mountains.

After resting for a few hours in the only hotel in the town, the two people were full of energy and then plunged into the vast snow-capped mountains...

The howling wind, carrying the cold snow, kept blowing.

In the vast whiteness, two figures slowly moving forward were particularly conspicuous.

"Huha...huha..."

As hot breath continued to exhale from her mouth, Laura, wearing a red down jacket and a woolen hat, tried hard to pull out her sunken legs from the thick snow and continued walking forward.

In front of her was Lu Qi, who was carrying a large backpack and wearing a navy blue down jacket.

Four hours have passed since they left the town and entered the Verkhovyansk Mountains.

Although walking on two legs was not very fast, the two of them still followed the guidance of the map and gradually entered the search range of Kit City.

However, walking on the high-altitude snow-capped mountains at minus 40 degrees Celsius consumes more energy than you can imagine on ordinary days.

Even Lu Qi and Laura, who have extraordinary physical fitness, had to find a temporary camp where they could escape the wind and snow to rest during the search.

"Laura, there is a sheltered slope ahead. We can build a bonfire there to warm ourselves up temporarily."

"Um."

After finding a place to camp, Lu Qi began to set up the camp, while Laura went out to collect wood for fire.

With the division of labor and cooperation, a simple but useful campfire camp was quickly built.

I casually threw a piece of dry wood into the bonfire, and the blazing fire suddenly made a "crackling" sound...

Sitting by the campfire, the two of them were about to boil some hot water to drink when they suddenly heard the roar of an engine coming from the sky!

The two looked at each other, immediately dug out the snow to put out the bonfire, then stepped on the thick snow, climbed up the hillside, and looked up.

I saw two dark gray armed helicopters flying "rumbling" from the distant sky.

From their flight routes, we can know that their destination is consistent with the goal of the two people.

Looking at the helicopter gradually going away, Lu Qi couldn't help but narrow his eyes and murmured:
Chapter completed!
