My Billionaire Husband

After the ship exploded, Leo put the slick fishing line away and put it in his travel back.

He then told them both to row behind him while he went ahead and split the reeds and small moso bamboo with his sabre.

At this point Harriet said, “Mr. Cohen, we might as well launch the speedboat and charge straight through.”

Leo immediately stopped it, shook her head and said, “That won’t work, if you start the speedboat, the propellers underneath will be rolled by the messy grass and branches. When it’s not started, the propellers are stowed in the belly of the bilge like the wheels of an aeroplane.”

With those words, Leo unfolded his powerful arm and used his sabre to chop down the dense code of reeds and messy bamboo.

Harriet and Red Rose paddled hard using their sniper rifles as paddles, but the boat did not travel fast enough.

Because the sniper rifle was too short to hold up the bottom of the stream, it had no forward strength.

When Leo discovered this, he immediately used his sabre and split two small pieces of moso bamboo about five metres long to use as paddles.

As soon as Harriet and Red Rose replaced the small moso bamboo, they each stood on one side and used the moso bamboo to prop up the bottom of the stream, and the boat immediately went much faster.

After about half an hour there were no more obstacles in front of the stream and it was now flowing gently downstream.

The three were tired and sweating profusely, sitting on the speedboat and panting violently.

In the moonlight, Leo found a U-shaped natural man-made lake in the distance, a very wide area

Soon the boat slipped from the stream into the natural man-made lake.

Leo told everyone to turn off their torches and just use the light of the moon so as not to reveal themselves.

At this point, Harriet asked, “Mr. Cohen, can you start the speedboat?”

Leo laughed bitterly, “No, where is the speedboat going? There are treacherous mountains on all sides, peaks towering into the clouds, and the cliffs are as straight as knives, so how can we get up there?”

With a depressed look on her face, Harriet asked, “Mr. Cohen, so what do we do now?”

Leo took the moso bamboo from Harriet and said, “You two take a rest first, I’ll row the boat, I’ll think of a solution.”

It was after two o’clock at night and Harriet and Red Rose were extremely tired.

They both then lay down in the speedboat, curled up, and fell into asleep.

However, this fatigue was nothing for Leo, and although he was physically and mentally exhausted, his spirit were high from his quest to survive and kill the Phantom group.

As he paddled, Leo judged that the peak to his left to be the main island, as he knew that the water path of the stream went all the way to the left.

But at the same time he noticed that the secondary island was an isolated island, surrounded by water on all sides, and that it was clearly surrounded by the main island.

However, Leo was also well aware that there was about a kilometre of water and bamboo forest connecting the crawler cover between the secondary and main islands.

If he looked down from the air, the view was deceived by the water and bamboo forest, as the secondary island and the main island are connected by a vein.

Leo knew that now he had to find a way to climb the peak on the left, and then find a way to kill the pirates’ base.

So Leo rowed along the foot of the mountain, trying to find a way up, and he paddled from right to left and began to find the way.

After paddling for about half an hour, Leo’s eyes lit up as he approached the peak on his left and spotted a water hole.

So he accelerated his paddling speed and rushed into the water hole, which was very dark as there was no moonlight inside.

Leo immediately turned on his torch and shone it all over towards the top of the cave and found that it was very high above.

At the top of the cave are a variety of strange, jagged and coloured stones, predominantly blue variegated stones and yellow wax stones.

The further the boat was paddled in, the brighter the cave became, for it was full of yellow wax stones.

Yellow wax stone has a golden yellow colour and when shone by a torch, it will have a chromatic reflection.

At that moment, Harriet woke up and she exclaimed out , “Wow! This is a beautiful stone, it’s like a palace.”

Her cry had a distinct echo in the hole in the ground.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

Harriet then took out her torch and shone it in all four directions, admiring the beautiful stones on the cliff with an excited look on her face.

Red Rose also exclaimed, “Wow! Oh my God! This beauty is incredible.”

Leo, on the other hand, was not in either of their moods as he pondered whether there would be a waterway ahead leading to the main island.

If yes, they wouldn’t need to be out there climbing dangerous peaks and avoiding dangerous moves.

However, Leo knew that it would also be extremely dangerous once this place could lead to the main island.

It may also be an instant ambush attack by pirates.

So Leo said to them both, “Prepare your guns, watch out for an ambush ahead.”

On hearing that, they both immediately unloaded their sniper rifles from their shoulders and stood ready to fight.

However, after twenty minutes of paddling, Leo was disappointed that the waterway had come to an end because of the cliffs ahead.

Leo said in a dishevelled voice, “We’ve hit a dead end in the water hole.”

At this point, Harriet and Red Rose picked up their torches again and shone them up and down in all directions, their faces sad.

Suddenly Harriet exclaimed out, “Mr. Cohen, look, there’s a hole up here too. Inside the cave there are also countless stone stairways up the mountain.”

Leo’s heart fluttered as he picked up his torch and shone it on. There was indeed a stone cave, and inside the cave there were indeed stone stepped up the hill.

Leo exclaimed, “I can be sure that this stone staircase is the path to the top of the mountain. Look at the regular stone staircase, this stone staircase is artificially constructed, come on, let’s go up and have a look.”

Leo then rowed the boat to the edge of the stone cave and everyone slowly disembarked.

Fearing that the speedboat would drift away, Leo took the rope from the speedboat and tied it securely to the rocks.

Leo then walked at the front, where he tied the torch to the barrel of the heavy machine gun with fishing line.

He didn’t have to hold a torch in one hand and a gun in the other, which would be tiring, and he could defend himself in time if there were pirates up there.

The rocky path is very wet and when one is not careful, one can easily slip and fall.

Leo walked in front with his heavy machine gun, Harriet was second and Red Rose was third.

At this point no one said anything, and Leo was even more focused on moving up with his gun.

He had never been afraid, but at that moment he felt a chill in his head.

To put it bluntly, as long as there are a few pirates hiding up there, it is hard for Leo to be sure whether they will lose or win.

Even if the pirates didn’t have any weapons, they could have rolled a few boulders down.

This stone staircase up the hill is about one metre two wide and the further they go up it, the narrower the path becomes.

The stone stairway was curving and circling upwards, and the top of the wall above them was about three metres high, it was so high that Leo could have touched the top if they had raised it with a heavy machine gun.

After walking for about half an hour, Harriet began to say that she could not walk any further.

Leo had no choice but to stop and let Harriet take a break.

With that, Leo told everyone’s torches to turn off.

Leo took out a cigarette and shared one with Harriet, and the two of them began to smoke to release a bit of fatigue and nervous stress.
