Chapter 10:
"It's not that I don't believe in your strength, but this mission might be very dangerous."
"I won't agree to this reason."
Before Jack could finish, he was interrupted by Xu Hao.
The Earl hadn't even told him what the mission was, and he was already asking him to leave?
Jack scratched his head anxiously and continued to think.
"By the way, have your college entrance examination scores come out yet? "After the scores are out, you still have to fill in your choice. We're going on an adventure, so we don't have the conditions to give you these.”
"So you should pack your things and go back to China now.”
"You've earned a few million this time. You should be satisfied.”
Jack began to use the college entrance examination to put pressure on Xu Hao.
"There's still half a month before the scores come out. It'll take about a month to fill in the application form.”
"You lost the bet last time, so you have to promise me one thing unconditionally. Now, I want to complete this expedition with you.”
"Like I said, a man's word is a promise. You're not going back on your word, are you?”
Xu Hao said as he looked into Jack's eyes seriously.
"Jack, trust me. I won't hold you back. I can help, just like the last time I explored the aboriginal tribe.”
Seeing Xu Hao's firm and sincere eyes, Jack knew that he could not persuade him.
"Alright then."
The two of them arrived in front of the earl.
"Earl, we'll accept this mission together.”
"Alright, then let's talk about the specific content.”
The earl turned around and walked deeper into the castle.
Xu Hao and Jack quickly followed.
"How much do you know about the Second World War?”
"I don't know much about World War II, but I know that a third world war must not break out.”
Jack said with a smile. According to Xu Hao's memory, he had just finished middle school and dropped out of school to make a living. Therefore, he did not know much about history.
"This mission should be related to World War II.”
Xu Hao asked.
The Earl nodded in agreement.
"In the late stage of the allied counterattack in World War II, when the German army retreated from Africa, they received an order from the higher-ups to bury some of the gold they plundered in Europe in a secret base in Africa.”
"At that time, the person in charge of this mission was Sir Gardelin. He gave this mission to his adjutant, Hans.”
"Hans led 18 personal guards to complete this mission, but after completing the mission, they all disappeared.”
After listening to the Earl's description, Xu Hao and Jack nodded.
"So our mission this time is to go to the desert and find that batch of gold?”
Xu Hao asked first.
The Earl nodded.
"That's right."
"The United Nations has entrusted me with the task of retrieving the gold.”
"Because that batch of gold was plundered by the Germanic people in the occupied area, the ownership of the gold is very controversial.”
" Due to these subtle reasons, I believe that letting outsiders carry out this mission in an unofficial manner can perfectly solve those problems.”
"That's why I invited you here. I want to entrust this mission to you.”
After hearing the Earl's words, Xu Hao and Jack understood the reason for their operation.
As they spoke, they walked into a spacious hall.
There were already several people waiting in the hall.
"Come, let me introduce you.”
The earl walked to the middle of the group.
"Colonel Bord, these two are Eagle and his assistant Hao.”
"This is Colonel Byrd and Lieutenant Colonel Banner.”
"Nice to meet you."
Colonel Bord and Lieutenant Colonel Banner warmly shook hands with Jack and Xu Hao.
"And this side."
The Earl turned around and continued to introduce the girl in pink business attire who was sitting in another direction.
"This is Ada."
"Hello,"
Ada stood up and greeted Jack and Xu Hao with a smile.
"Ada is Professor Bussie's student and has a deep understanding of the terrain and desert environment in Africa. If she takes you there, you will definitely be able to find the gold.”
Jack was a little stunned when he heard the Earl's words.
"Ah, she's bringing us there?"
Obviously, he didn't believe in Ada's ability. He thought that a woman like her shouldn't take risks in a place of death like the Sahara Desert.
As soon as Jack said that, Xu Hao clearly felt a hint of displeasure flash across Ada's face.
"Judging from her attire, Lady Ada's style should be swift and decisive. I think it's quite suitable for a heroine like her.”
For the sake of the team's harmony, Xu Hao quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.
Ada, who was about to refute Jack, looked a little better after hearing Xu Hao's words. Her impression of Xu Hao also became good.
