Chapter 50: Very Hot Temptation on her!

" What treasures lie within the confines of this formidable warship? " wondered Liu Yong, his anticipation mounting. He couldn't help but entertain the idea that the first shipwreck discovered by Bawang held a considerable fortune in gleaming gold.

However, the second shipwreck proved to be even more extraordinary. Laden with Jinshen and Huanghuali items, its worth surpassed a staggering two billion. Liu Yong's curiosity deepened as he pondered the valuable artifacts that might be concealed within this remarkable vessel.

Deciding to forgo his usual rush to the company, Liu Yong yearned to witness firsthand the treasures Bawang could unearth from this modern-day warship. Acquiring another substantial fortune would be the pinnacle of success in his eyes.

The Overlord shared information provided by Liu Yong, deducing that the warship was a relic from over a century ago, originating from a time after the Opium War when foreign naval powers roamed the seas.

Bawang combed through one of the cabins meticulously, although his findings could have been more spectacular. Liu Yong remained undeterred, convinced that this particular cabin was likely the command room of the warship. It held little more than some rusty weapons and a shotgun, hardly the treasures he sought.

The flintlock gun discovered within the cabin, approximately one foot long, had succumbed to the ravages of time and suffered significant corrosion. Recognizing its lack of value, Liu Yong instructed Bawang to discard it without hesitation.

In moments like these, Liu Yong wished that he and Bawang could physically share the exhilaration of the search. Unfortunately, such a feat was not feasible, and they could only rely on their reliable communication to bridge the gap between them.

Around nine o'clock in the morning, Li Changle sent a message to Liu Yong, interrupting his thoughts. " Hey, what are you up to? I want to catch a movie today, " she inquired, her desire to spend time with him growing stronger each day.

With her beauty and affectionate nature, Li Changle brought immense joy to Liu Yong's life. Delighted to have such a captivating and clingy girlfriend, he couldn't help but smile at her message.

Liu Yong promptly replied, " Sure, let's go. I'll be right over. "

Li Changle's rental house became his destination. Right after reaching her house, Liu Yong settled on the living room sofa and said, " Your roommate still hasn't returned, " .

" She won't be back until school starts again, " Li Changle replied, joining him on the sofa with a water bottle

Liu Yong accepted the water and took a sip, briefly glancing toward the balcony. His gaze was captivated by freshly laundered clothes, some alluringly form-fitting, especially the delicate lace underwear. He couldn't help but wonder if Li Changle, at such a tender age, possessed the audacity to dress so provocatively.

Li Changle seemed to sense Liu Yong's thoughts, and a faint blush coloured her cheeks as she asked, " Yong, were you entertaining inappropriate thoughts? "

Startled, Liu Yong quickly denied, " No, no, nothing of that sort. "

Li Changle playfully contradicted him, saying, " I can tell you were thinking about it. I can always guess. "

Caught off guard, Liu Yong found himself unable to resist the temptation. He hadn't anticipated this seductive side of Li Changle, and it nearly drove him to the edge of madness.

" I truly adore you, " Liu Yong confessed, unable to contain his desires. " But I won't deny my greed for your body. When can we... "

Interrupting his words, Li Changle withdrew from her earlier seductive behaviour, playfully pinching Liu Yong's waist as she scolded him, " You're such a naughty guy, always thinking about that! "

Their playful banter quickly escalated into a wrestling match on the sofa, adding an element of excitement to their interaction.

After their playful squabble, Li Changle smiled and spoke, " Yong, if you're jealous of my body, you'll have to wait until we have the certificate. Now, let's go watch that movie together. "

Meanwhile, deep beneath the seabed, Overlord diligently continued its relentless work of dismantling the warship, revealing more hidden cabins. With every piece disassembled, the crew uncovered a labyrinth of rooms, each holding the potential for newfound treasures.

Overlord tirelessly persevered at a depth of 700 to 800 meters below the seabed, unravelling the mysteries of the warship's metallic embrace. As the ship was gradually reduced to half its original size, most of its cabins were exposed, making it significantly more accessible for the crew to search. They meticulously examined each room, one by one, with unwavering focus.

Bawang's voice echoed through Liu Yong's mind, " Hey, something is interesting here. "

Intrigued, Liu Yong leaned closer to listen, his curiosity piqued. Bawang's voice crackled back, revealing the discovery of a badly decomposed corpse, reduced to a mere skeleton. Despite the advanced decay, the remnants of clothing still clung to the bones, distinctly different from the attire worn by the other crew members. It appeared to be the uniform of an officer.

As they inspected the skeletal remains, Bawang's discerning eyes caught sight of something remarkable. Portions of the gun, now covered in rust, appeared to be gilded with gold, hinting at its potential value. It was a common practice to embellish flintlock guns with gold, enhancing their decorative appeal and market worth.

However, determining whether the weapon contained gold would require further examination or analysis.

Indeed, during the era when flintlock guns reigned supreme, possessing a gold-embellished firearm was a clear indicator of wealth and social standing. Gold-adorned flintlocks were renowned for their intricate designs and often adorned with precious gems, making them objects of luxury rather than mere practical weapons.

After returning home, Liu Yong took the initiative to inquire with Bawang, eager for updates from the day's search. " Did you uncover anything noteworthy? " he asked, anticipation evident.

Bawang responded promptly, " I've searched half of the cabins and discovered two pieces of porcelain, a gilded gun, and a handful of gold and silver coins. "

Though the findings seemed modest for the time being, considering the vastness of the warship, Liu Yong remained optimistic. Several cabins were still left to explore, and he believed more extraordinary discoveries might await them.

While the ship yielded more porcelain, most shattered, save for the two pieces. The diligent Overlord carefully safeguarded these valuable remnants for the time being.

Liu Yong suggested, " If you're tired, take a break today. We can resume our search tomorrow. "

However, Overlord's response surprised him. " Master, I'm not tired at all. I'll continue dismantling the ship and meticulously searching each cabin. Rest assured, I'll spare no effort in this endeavor. "

" If you insist, " Liu Yong acquiesced, his tone tinged with concern.

With the matter settled, Liu Yong immersed himself in his mobile phone, engaging in a pleasant conversation with Li Changle on WeChat before retiring late.

Before drifting off to sleep, Liu Yong once again reached out to Bawang, eager to exchange information and ensure the progress of their search.

Bawang relayed that a significant portion of the warship had been dismantled, allowing them to explore several cabins and make a few discoveries. However, they still yearned to find substantial gold and silver.

Nonetheless, a small cache of gold and silver coins had been unearthed.

During that era, it was common for Western aristocrats and affluent individuals to carry a few gold or silver coins in their pockets, symbolizing their wealth and status.

" Master, please rest. Leave this to me, " Overlord assured Liu Yong, sensing his weariness. " Once we complete the search of the warship, I will securely store all the valuable items in the seaside warehouse. You can come and witness it for yourself tomorrow. "

" All right, I'll visit you tomorrow, " Liu Yong responded, his voice tinged with excitement.

After concluding his communication with Bawang, Liu Yong finally succumbed to sleep, drifting into a deep slumber. In his dreams, he was immersed in a blissful world where he and Li Changle shared an intimate connection.

Within the realm of his dreams, Liu Yong confessed his desire for Li Changle's body, and to his surprise, she agreed willingly, heightening his senses and driving his desires to new heights.

The following morning...

As Liu Yong arrived at the seaside warehouse around 9:00 am, the fruits of Overlord's labour awaited him. The warship had been thoroughly searched, and all the valuable artifacts were carefully stored within the confines of the warehouse, patiently awaiting Liu Yong's arrival.
