Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 845 The True Purpose of the Scientific Expedition!

However, just as Hu Ming was about to suggest buying snowmobiles from the foreigners and parting ways with them, the foreign captain suddenly seemed to get angry and started shaking his head.

"No! You can't leave! Our people have suffered heavy losses, and you promised to help!"

The foreign captain spoke to Juliet and asked her to translate for Hu Ming.

After hearing the foreigner's words, Hu Ming pointed to the remains of the monsters not far away and then spoke.

"We've already helped you! We haven't gone back on our word. Now it's you who are breaking your promise! If you're unwilling to sell us the snowmobile, then we won't force you!"

"Those who walk different paths cannot make plans together! Goodbye!"

After Hu Ming finished speaking, he winked at Juliet and prepared to leave.

However, just as Hu Ming was about to leave with Juliet and the young man, the foreigner suddenly pulled out a pistol and pointed it at Hu Ming.

"I'm in charge here! I'm telling you, you're staying here! I have to admit, you're good at dealing with monsters, and that's exactly the kind of people we need!"

"Of course, as long as you behave, I won't hurt you! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"I can kill you! Leave him alive! We can still deal with the monster then!"

After the middle-aged foreigner finished speaking, he glanced at the young man not far away, clearly threatening Hu Ming.

However, Hu Ming was not afraid of such a threat at all.

Given Hu Ming and Xiao Ge's combined strength, taking down the remaining dozen or so people would be no problem at all.

Even though they are all armed, as long as Hu Ming and Xiao Ge work together, they are not afraid of the weapons in their hands.

Seeing the foreigner turn hostile, Hu Ming couldn't help but sigh.

"Sigh! Foreigners really are dishonest! What if I insist on leaving today!"

After Hu Ming finished speaking, a cold glint appeared in his eyes, clearly indicating that he was ready to make a move at any moment.

However, just as Hu Ming was watching the foreigner, who seemed ready to rush over and snatch his gun at any moment, the foreigner said something that greatly interested Hu Ming.

So much so that Hu Ming changed his mind.

"Hmph! You can't leave! Even if you leave here, you won't get out of this icy wasteland!"

"We're already deep in the icy plains; you'll just freeze to death! So you'd better obediently help us find the Heavenly Pearl! If you find it, maybe I can share the reward with you! How about it?"

When the foreigner got to this point, he looked intently at Hu Ming, seemingly waiting for Hu Ming's response.

When Hu Ming heard the foreigner mention the word "Dzi bead," he couldn't help but feel surprised.

"A dzi bead?! These guys are actually here to find a dzi bead?"

Hu Ming fell into deep thought.

It's important to know that the dzi beads are extremely important to Hu Ming right now, since they seem to be related to some unknown civilization and can also upgrade his system.

Thinking about all this, Hu Ming immediately made a decision: to follow these foreigners and search for the dzi bead they were looking for.

To be honest, Hu Ming had absolutely no clue about the other dzi beads. Now that he had some information, he naturally couldn't miss it.

Hu Ming quickly smiled at the foreign captain.

"Hehe! You're right! I've thought about it carefully, and I think I'll stick with you for now! I don't want to freeze to death here!"

After Hu Ming finished speaking, he extended a hand to the foreign captain and shook hands with him.

Seeing that Hu Ming was so sensible, the foreign team leader smiled again. "Hahaha! That's right! Don't you have a proverb that says harmony brings wealth? Cooperation is the key to a win-win situation!"

After the foreigner finished speaking, he finally put away his gun and then gathered everyone together again.

After a quick headcount, the group finally got back on their snowmobiles and headed towards a coordinate point.

During the journey, Hu Ming and his group had a short rest. It was during this rest that Hu Ming learned that another group of people was following closely behind them.

The other group's target was also the Heavenly Bead. As for the monsters from before, it was someone from that group who was behind it.

At the same time, Hu Ming unexpectedly discovered that this small team disguised as a scientific expedition team was actually sent by Richard.

Fortunately, Richard was unaware that Hu Ming and his group were also in this disguised scientific expedition team, so Hu Ming and his two companions could wait and see what happened.

"Stop! This is the first coordinate point! We need to explore downwards from here!"

Just after Hu Ming figured out the identities of the group of foreigners, they quickly stopped at the first coordinate point.

After everyone stopped, the group of foreigners took out their trap drilling machine and started drilling holes in the ground.

There couldn't possibly be anything here!

Seeing the foreigners digging holes in the ground, the young man suddenly spoke up.

When it comes to feng shui and topography, this guy knows far more than those foreigners.

So when those foreigners were drilling holes, the guy made his own judgment.

But the foreigners wouldn't listen to the young man's judgment.

They gave up drilling after several hours of searching without finding anything.

"Let's go! We can abandon this coordinate point! Let's move on to the next one!"

The middle-aged foreign captain gestured for everyone to continue their journey, but judging by the time, it was already almost evening.

Because the high latitudes of Antarctica experience polar day, the sun never seems to set.

Despite this, everyone was exhausted, so the foreign captain could only tell them to set up camp and rest for a while.

Soon, the group set up tents on the ice field, lit a campfire, and began cooking.

However, before they could finish cooking, another group of people slowly appeared in their field of vision on the ice field not far away.

"Damn it! Those guys are catching up! We have to get out of here right now!"

Seeing that the group that had been relentlessly pursuing them had caught up again, the foreign captain immediately ordered everyone to pack their belongings and continue on their way.

However, before they could finish packing, the group of people had already arrived in front of them.

At the same time, many of the same monsters as before surrounded the group, and Hu Ming and his group were immediately encircled by them.

"Jack! Half of your men are already dead, are you still going to resist?"

Seeing that Hu Ming and his group were surrounded, a person dressed in strange clothes finally stepped out from another group and spoke to the foreign captain.

The foreign captain's name was Jack, and when he saw the person in strange clothes, a serious expression appeared on his face.

"Watch out! Something's not right with that guy!"

Just as Jack was confronting the person on the other end, the guy started talking again!
