Assassin’s Adventure - Chapter 159

Of course, Gordon couldn’t do the act of swearing at a woman. If it was his own sailor, he would have kicked both feet in the past, but Serena couldn’t, and one of them was that Gordon couldn’t beat him at all.

Serena’s power to manipulate people’s hearts is unpredictable, and it may even be Gordon himself who makes a fool of himself in the end, so it’s just a verbal lesson.

This dinner may be the best meal they have eaten after entering the jungle. They have fresh ingredients and hope for the future. Everything seems to be moving in the direction of hope.

Of course, only the most core part of the people can grasp the real situation. The situation is not as easy as you think.

This night, the howling of the surrounding beasts was much less, and the soldiers in charge of guarding were rarely relieved, and they were waiting for tomorrow’s journey.

In this hunt, they stored enough food, and there was nothing worth delaying on the way. In order to get rid of the Spaniards who didn’t know where they were, Burton kept urging the team for the next three days. On the fourth day, the soldiers finally saw what could be called a spectacle.

“The Great Falls!”

A soldier first discovered this. They walked into a place that could be called a valley. This is the source of the legend, but there are towering cliffs scattered around. Those are not mountains, but plateaus.

And the big waterfall, right at the source of the river, tumbled down from the cliffs of the plateau, making a huge noise.

“My God, this is definitely the biggest waterfall I’ve ever seen!”

A soldier took off his hat and was a little stunned. The waterfall in front of him was a miracle of nature, maybe even a masterpiece of God. Just by visual inspection, the waterfall can be initially measured to be about 3,000 feet.

“Let’s go!”

Burton gave an order to let the soldiers step on the rocky river bank and shallow water, and move towards that position. More than a hundred people stretched across the river bank. There is no decent road in this place, and the river is very shallow. , but it is very fast in the river, and the water flow of such a spectacular waterfall is not large, just moisturizing the river.

Gordon walked the water with the sailors, his shoes soaked in the water, but all his attention was drawn to the waterfall in front of him, even though he knew that there might be El Dorado, that cursed place.

A sailor picked up a piece of gold in the river, no, it should be said to be a gold brick, with exquisite patterns carved on it, this is a work of art, not natural gold, which greatly boosted morale, El Dorado, close at hand.

The time at this moment is exactly noon. At this time when the sun is the brightest, the water glitters, and it is countless gold.

Many soldiers picked up gold from the water, and their joy is beyond words. Many people have never seen so much gold in their lives.

“Reinforce, gentlemen, you are soldiers of the Royal Navy.”

Gore reminded loudly that in order to maintain his appearance, he followed Burton, and of course he did not give up his identity to fish for the gold. If he found El Dorado, these things would just be sprinkled with water.

A soldier became more and more excited, and then shouted:

“Haha, these things are mine, mine!”

He was a little crazy, and rushed directly into the river, towards the largest gold brick, and then was washed down by the current, his forehead hit the jagged rock directly, and blood flowed out.

“Someone fell into the water!”

The two soldiers saw this scene and wanted to pull it up. The blood flowed along the river. The fallen soldier had become a corpse and was smashed on the stone beyond recognition.

The situation has gotten a little out of control.

More and more people rushed into the water and fell to their death on top of the gold. Their expressions were crazy. One second they were normal, but the next second they fell into the water like crazy.

“Stay away from the river, don’t look at the gold!”

Burton shouted anxiously.

“The commander ordered everyone to stay away from the river!”

The soldier in charge of the order passed the order to everyone.

The original ecstasy on the soldiers’ faces had turned into panic, and these soldiers left the river as if they were fleeing the plague.

But even so, the bodies of fifteen soldiers have been left in the river.

“This is a curse!”

A soldier shouted, closed his eyes tightly, and bumped into the rocks by groping. He was reluctant to open his eyes, he just wanted to escape from here.

Then he tripped over a stone and touched something round and round, and the more he touched it, the more familiar it became.

“Stop!”

The soldier beside him grabbed him: “Don’t open your eyes!”

The soldier was touching a skull in his hand, so pure and beautiful, but the soldier was already a little scared, and knowing that he was touching the skull at this time would really be frightening.

The soldier on the side pulled him up, then dragged him away from the place, towards the sloped place.

“What was that just now? Tell me, what is that? Are we all going to die here!”

“It’s nothing, just rocks, we’ll get out of here safely.”

Burton just stared straight ahead and didn’t look at those tragic images. These soldiers didn’t know about the curse at all~www.mtlnovel.com~ and didn’t have any mental preparations at all. In their minds, all they needed was to defeat Those Spaniards, get the gold, and get out of here.

But the reality is far from what they know, the beautiful scene is always full of crisis, and those seemingly beautiful gold will actually bring death.

The curse is more frightening than witches and ghosts, because it is invisible, there is no sign, and there is no resistance.

“Brigadier General, what should we do?”

Burton gritted his teeth at this moment, many thoughts flashed through his mind, but they were all very annoyed. He never thought that he would lose so many people just in this outermost place.

“Let’s get out of here! Evacuate from here and camp outside.”

“Everyone get out! Set up camp on the northern shore!”

Gore shouted loudly that there was a small wood on the northern shore that could serve as a reluctant station.

The soldiers were already fleeing as if they were fleeing. At this time, they couldn’t care less about the formation and ran outside one after another.

“Keep calm! Calm the soldiers!”

……

“All sailors stay calm! Follow me, there is no problem, we only need to take two more steps to get out of this area!”

Gordon gave a loud order, gathered his sailors around him, and retreated in an orderly manner.

Of all the people, only Gordon’s sailors seemed to be calmer. After all, the Jackdaw was a magical ship, not to mention that there was a witch among them.

“Selina, can you detect what kind of curse this is?”

Gordon helped Serena, the only lady, to walk quickly, and then asked in a low voice.

“No, it’s not a curse at all, it’s just amplifying the greed of people’s hearts, and then falling into the river!”
