Time Travel: Age of Discovery

Chapter 70 Is there something hidden?

Are you hiding something?

It is not appropriate to make any rash conclusions at this moment, but he is a black marketeer and acts cunningly, so we must be on guard.

Teya felt that it was not appropriate to leave at this moment. Although no one else was affected, the safety of the store owner was worrying and he could no longer stay out of it.

Furthermore, if Teya reports this to the navy after leaving, will the navy really take this matter seriously?

The townspeople compete secretly and make treaties openly, and they form alliances with others. If this balance is broken, won’t the townspeople suspect that the navy is disturbing their livelihoods?

With such behavior, how can they call themselves the army of justice?

However, considering the current situation, Teya felt that the only solution was to gain the other party's trust. If this person tried to enter the town to bring back the shop owner, Tina and Smoker might follow, and the situation would be very difficult.

Teya decided to agree to this person for the time being, but he was already on guard.

"I am only slightly interested in the treasure. If the treasure is false or you deceived me, that is another matter."

Hearing this, Adilhaid was delighted. After all, he had touched Teya's heart, and there was still hope for a turnaround.

Having said that, he was no longer in a hurry to avoid appearing impatient. He planned to send someone to bring the owner back tomorrow and then explore the treasure.

At this moment, the competition in paradise is still going on.

Teya watched the game for a while and found it boring, so he wandered around until he stopped in front of a tall tower.

There is a platform on the top of the tower, like a chimney, which can be climbed to the top. This is indeed a good place for quiet contemplation.

Teya climbed to the top of the tower and saw a familiar figure.

The man seemed to hear some movement and looked back.

"Eh? It's you!"

Betty wakes up in the treatment room, knowing she's lost. Feeling down, she comes to this place where she often spends her time alone to relax. Unexpectedly, she encounters her rival here, and her emotions are mixed.

Teya was also surprised and responded immediately: "I just wanted to calm down for a moment, but I didn't expect to meet you here. I'm sorry to bother you." After saying that, he was about to leave.

"Wait a minute."

Betty suddenly called out to Teya, lightly twirled her temples, looked away, and said, "If you don't mind, you can stay here. It's okay." This made Teya feel quite embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, she decided to stay for a while. After all, the platform was spacious.

The two of them looked at each other in silence, enjoying the same scenery, each with their own thoughts.

In a duel, Betty was a formidable opponent. Thea was initially surprised to see them, but soon felt relieved.

However, Betty regards Thea as the only person who truly understands her, even though Thea doesn't understand why.

"Are pirates really free and easy?"

The words rang in Teya's ears, and he turned around to see Betty staring at him.

"You mean pirates? Haha, they can be said to be free, but they also need to be wary of the navy." Teya chuckled and expressed what he was thinking.

Betty understood a little, nodded, and continued, "I rarely go out to sea. After following Hyde, I mostly practice on the island. Going out to sea is just to change islands..."

The two chatted for a few sentences and the topic gradually opened up.

Betty seems optimistic, but in fact she has low self-esteem, but she is strong at heart.

At one point in the conversation, Teya seemed to understand something and smiled slightly.

The mysterious and vast ocean, filled with endless mysteries and wonders, attracts people from all over the world to explore and venture forth. In this vast expanse, I encountered a diverse array of characters, each with their own unique experiences and stories, each of which filled me with wonder and awe. Their presence made the ocean even more colorful, vibrant, and intriguing, and filled my adventure with unexpected surprises and challenges.

However, Betty mentioned something that caught Teya's attention: "To be honest, since Hyde took over this place, he has become a completely different person. His intentions are hard to predict."

"You're talking about the treasure?"

Betty shook her head when she heard that. "I don't know, but I don't like my life right now. I'm not afraid of the black market. I just want to live a peaceful life, even if it's just an ordinary one."

Without her usual disguise, Betty acted like an ordinary person in front of Teya, taking everything lightly.

Teya was quite surprised. If he knew Betty's life experience, he would understand her.

To Betty, Adil Haider is no longer the same person. He may still care about Betty, but Betty vaguely feels that Adil Haider has changed.

I said this to Teya because I felt that Teya was different and could understand me.

"By the way, I..."

"Ms. Betty!"

Suddenly there was a shout from downstairs of the tower. Betty leaned over the wall to peek, apologized hastily to Thea, and left quickly.

The conversation with Betty was just an interlude. Teya looked at the sunset with a determined heart.

No matter what, we must sneak out tonight and tell the store owner and others. If possible, taking them away from this Fuxi Island is also an option.

"But if what Betty said is true, then perhaps the two of them are colluding to deceive me. Judging from this, Hyde is a very cunning man."

Teya left the tower and waited for the night to fall.

At this time, Adil Haider stood outside the lounge, the door was open, and a subordinate in a black and white suit stood outside the door.

"You must act tonight and bring people back."

"As ordered!"

A smile crossed Adilheid's lips.

I will send someone to capture the old man and the two children tonight. I don’t believe you will not agree.

He begged again and again, thinking he was a big shot.

After saying this, Adil Haider slowly closed the door and waited for the drama he had set to unfold.
