CHAPTER 1531: CHAPTER 730: GOOD PEOPLE WILL EVENTUALLY BE REWARDED_2

Thinking of the spoils seized at this pirate stronghold, Sean Knight’s heart suddenly ignited with excitement!

Why bother searching underwater for treasures when he could snatch them directly from the pirates?

And besides, wasn’t this akin to robbing the rich to help the poor?

Of course, the "poor" wasn’t himself, but in the future he could use the money to do something meaningful.

Understand?

Just like that, the decision was made joyfully!

While Sean Knight was still pondering the aftermath of dealing with the pirates here, the Chinese girl noticed his stillness and thought he was shocked, growing anxious herself.

If Sean Knight was frightened, then their prospects were probably grim!

"You guys keep going forward, I’ll delay these two speedboats," Sean Knight suddenly said, "Does any of you know how to operate this underwater propeller?"

The girls all shook their heads.

"Nevermind then, just stop the speedboat here, and you all act as bait; I’ll use the propeller to approach them," Sean Knight said, "We can’t let them get near the speedboat or you’ll be in trouble."

He took the propeller from the side of the speedboat, then told the Chinese girl:

"Don’t worry, I’m a smaller target by myself, and I will quickly neutralize them."

Watching Sean Knight speak so confidently, the Chinese girl inexplicably nodded her head.

She just really believed him.

Sean Knight piloted the propeller underwater, disappearing just a bit, then swam towards the pirates.

Before Douglas Cooper could arrive, Sean Knight had to ensure the safety of the girls on the speedboat.

If he could ambush, Sean Knight believed he could take down the pirates on the two speedboats.

Pirates incoming, the propeller was also fast, Sean Knight only headed towards the direction of the pirates for three minutes before stopping.

Then from his spatial realm, he took out an individual missile, suddenly leaped up slightly, surfaced, and then fired at the speedboat!

After firing, while the missile was still in the air, Sean Knight had already discarded the launcher and picked up another, firing at the other speedboat!

The two missiles rising into the air immediately drew the pirates’ attention—they yelled out, some shot at the missiles in the air, some shot towards Sean Knight, and some even jumped into the water!

Sean Knight dove back underwater, where the water rendered the gunfire powerless after travelling only a meter or two.

One or two bullets hit Sean Knight underwater, but they couldn’t penetrate his skin, only causing him minimal damage.

It was akin to a -1 value in a game.

Sean Knight maneuvered the underwater propeller back a little, and when he poked his head out of the water again, he saw the two speedboats had turned into two flames burning on the sea surface, and he assuredly headed back towards the girls.

By the speedboat, the girls had all jumped into the water, only their heads visible from above.

However, the Chinese girl stood alone on the speedboat, looking towards Sean Knight.

They knew they were safe from the moment they saw the two pirate speedboats explode.

But those who jumped in felt somewhat embarrassed, none of them came up.

The Chinese girl just disdainfully glanced at them, and continued to look in his direction.

She was waiting for Sean Knight.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long before Sean Knight surfaced near the speedboat and said to the several girls, frowning:

"Get back on."

The girls hurriedly climbed onto the speedboat—honestly, they were more or less injured, and staying in seawater was naturally uncomfortable.

But they were also afraid the pirates might find them should they approach—that’s why they had jumped into the water to escape.

Otherwise, who would want to suffer like that?

Sean Knight didn’t continue to tow the speedboat, as Douglas should be arriving soon.

About ten minutes later, the yacht driven by Douglas Cooper approached.

"Boss, we encountered pirates," Douglas stated, "I dealt with them before coming over."

"It’s fine," Sean Knight said, "Let’s get them up first."

Douglas had already seen the still-burning remains of the speedboats and knew the boss had taken action again, feeling somewhat guilty.

After the girls climbed aboard the yacht, they couldn’t help but cheer.

This time, they were genuinely safe.

Douglas Cooper pulled out a satellite phone and gave it to a few girls, letting them take turns to assure their families at home.

Sean Knight then took out his own satellite phone and handed it to the Chinese girl.

As a fellow compatriot, naturally, he could give her special care.

The girl looked at Sean Knight with gratitude and then took the satellite phone, excitedly walked to one side of the deck, and dialed the number.

Soon, the girl’s excited voice rang out, and Sean Knight could even hear a woman crying on the other end.

It seemed that the Chinese girl had been kidnapped for quite some time now; her family must have been very anxious, right?

"Boss, shall we head to the Port now?"

"Yeah, let’s go." Compared to Lion City, Sean Knight and his team were now closer to Kuala Lumpur. So, Sean Knight intended to dock at the Port not far from Kuala Lumpur, drop off the girls, and then leave to continue the treasure hunt.

He already had a new target.

Douglas Cooper naturally had no objections and drove the yacht toward the Port.

After about ten minutes, all the girls had made their calls, their faces still showing traces of excitement.

However, they were finally much more relaxed.

One by one, they came to express their gratitude to Sean Knight. To Sean Knight’s surprise, the girl who had slapped by the Chinese girl was the most grateful.

Perhaps she had always been the center of adoration and had never faced any real hardships, and this ordeal had accumulated and hit her all at once.

In the face of the girls’ gratitude, Sean Knight simply waved his hand and then entered his Bedroom.

The Chinese girl followed him in, and Sean Knight knew she wanted to express her gratitude, so he shook his head and said:

"Home is safer. Be careful when you go out in the future. Learn from this experience."

The girl just nodded silently. She could see that Sean Knight wasn’t interested in forming any deeper relationship with them and even refused to leave any contact details.

The girl felt a bit inferior, but it wasn’t the time to say anything.

Sean Knight didn’t think too much; he was considering how to pull off another heist.

After delivering the girls to the Port, Sean Knight and his team didn’t leave immediately. The girls had all lost their documents. Leaving them here now, even though there was government presence at the Port, what if something went wrong? Wouldn’t it undo their previous efforts?

Once away from his home country, Sean Knight was inclined to suspect the worst about those powers he couldn’t trust.

The girls understood the severity of the situation and didn’t insist on staying at a Hotel on land or going directly to find their families.

The yacht waited at the Port for no more than one hour, and the first girl’s family rushed over.

This girl was from this country, and after finishing her phone call, her family had hurried to get here.

After escorting the girl to her deeply grateful family, Sean Knight felt somewhat relieved.

Was he going to send them one by one? Quite troublesome!

Fortunately, soon after, some Embassy staff came over, confirmed their identities, and then took a few girls away.

Lastly, the Chinese girl—her family was in Kuala Lumpur, still frantically searching for ways to rescue her.

After delivering the girl to her family, Sean Knight and Douglas Cooper boarded the yacht and headed out to sea again.

"Boss, are you saying there might still be a nest of pirates out there?"

"Yes," Sean Knight repeated his experiences and analyses, "I think we can try another attack tonight."

Douglas Cooper wholeheartedly supported Sean Knight’s idea!

Who would only ever take hits and not fight back?

Having heard Sean Knight’s experiences, Douglas Cooper couldn’t wait any longer!

This time, he was determined to take the lead!

After the two had discussed their plans, the yacht set out towards the middle of the sea.

At the Port, the Chinese girl watched the yacht with a look of confusion and disappointment in her eyes.

She had learned about Sean Knight’s background only to realize, after knowing more, that the distance between them couldn’t merely be described as a great divide.

The yacht stopped in the middle of the sea.

Until evening, it slowly moved towards the shore, entering the fringes of a mangrove forest.

"It shouldn’t be far from the shore," Sean Knight whispered to Douglas Cooper, "Let’s search quickly and preferably finish the battle tonight."

Half an hour later, the two found a larger nest of pirates hidden in the jungle.

Combat was imminent!
