Chapter 772 - Finally got the treasure map
The children raised in such a large family lacked a sense of security. They needed to be tested and confirmed before they dared to make any decision. This was because they had been living in different environments since childhood. Just like in a game of charades, the people around him seemed like good friends, yet each harbored their own hidden agenda. "Since you're not afraid of danger, let's go together. It doesn't matter if there's one more person!" Zhou Hao's tone grew even more distant than before. No matter how much he understood, it still felt uncomfortable to be doubted by others. He treated people with sincerity, yet they repaid him in such a manner. George also sensed Zhou Hao's unease and felt deeply guilty. He feared that Zhou Hao's endless probing would one day ruin their friendship. Sometimes, there were things that shouldn't be touched, yet they slowly slipped away when no one was paying attention. "Zhou Hao, I'm sorry. I was wrong!" George could feel Zhou Hao's emotional fluctuation and quickly apologized. Since childhood, he had never been so submissive. Every time before, it was others who flattered him. The only time he met Zhou Hao was the first time he felt as though he had encountered a long-lost friend. "Tsk, now you know you were wrong. Earlier, you were still playing the schemer!" the frog retorted ruthlessly. Nothing could be hidden before him; yet to actually dare pretending to be drunk in front of him was simply like sprinkling pepper before a grave. Such a young man was far too inexperienced before him. However, he was a good person for being able to correct his mistakes in time. At the very least, this kind of test was harmless. Even if Zhou Hao did not want him to accompany him, he would never hurt his only friend. It was precisely because of this that the frog did not attack him. "This is also human nature, but I'm just a little unhappy!" For the first time, Zhou Hao did not argue with the frog and simply went along with it. He was a little surprised! However, the two of them had always worked together with tacit understanding, which was why they managed to win every time. "This isn't a big deal. Where is the Toslytan treasure map? Do we need to replan the navigation?" Zhou Hao had no intention of dragging things out. Toslytan had thought he would witness a great battle. A battle between friends was the scariest, because they knew each other's fatal weaknesses. However, it seemed Toslytan had no intention of starting a war; one of them immediately apologized, while the other was willing to take him to a place containing treasure. Thus, he wouldn't have the chance to watch a good show even if he wanted to. Thinking about it, he felt a little regretful. He had already prepared to watch the fire from the sidelines, but unfortunately, things did not go as he wished. "You look very disappointed?" He did not know when Zhou Hao had appeared behind him. Only a God of Thieves like him would possess such ability. He did not expect Zhou Hao to be so fast, as if he had suddenly emerged from the ground. "Don't you know people can be scared to death!" Toslytan was so angry his eyes widened, and his beard was already standing on end. The two young men would always give way to each other, yet they were extremely harsh toward an old man like him. He was so angry that smoke nearly poured from his seven orifices! "Oh, I forgot that you're human!" Zhou Hao retorted. If he wasn't human, could he be a ghost? With his ability to appear and disappear unpredictably, he was no different from those ghosts. Zhou Hao's words made perfect sense. Tosh nearly fainted from anger. What did he mean by "forget who I am"? Damn it!!!! F*ck your sister! You're not human. Your entire family isn't human. All eighteen generations of your ancestors aren't human. Toslytan cursed in his heart. He felt this Zhou Hao was too outrageous. He had never felt so shocked before when Zhou Hao said he wasn't human. He kept cursing inwardly, his eyes spitting fire as if he wanted to rush up to Zhou Hao and tear him apart. Yet, considering the gap in strength between them, he could only endure it. He believed that one day, Zhou Hao would find himself at a disadvantage in his hands. "The youngsters nowadays don't care about martial virtue. They don't even know what it means to respect the elderly and cherish the young. This old man is so angry!" "You..." Toslytan gritted his teeth as he looked at the two young men. Don't think that George was honest and rarely spoke; when he made a move at a critical moment, he was simply a deadly existence. He was number one in delivering the final blow! Previously, George had made him suffer greatly, but now, he felt there was no hope left in life. He didn't know whether it was right or wrong to follow these two brats. He definitely wouldn't have an easy life in the future. He could only slowly endure it and leave them after obtaining the treasure map. At that time, birds would be free to fly in the sky, and fish free to leap in the sea! His imagination was quite vivid, and his mouth couldn't stop complaining that young people these days didn't know how to respect and care for the elderly. Had the world changed? "Let's set off for the Papaya Spirit Planet. That's where the treasure map is. It's also where the treasure lies!" He had actually been to that place several times. However, every time he went there, he felt the atmosphere was gloomy, as if something sinister was watching him. That place was too mysterious and dangerous. He feared that if he entered alone, he might never come out. Moreover, many people knew there was treasure there. Everyone capable of going there had the support of a powerful force. Their strength was not weak. Every time he went there, he was alone. It would be extremely dangerous to encounter those powerful beasts and humans, yet he always managed to escape very quickly. Even if those powerful individuals entered, they wouldn't find the real treasure. The treasure map was with him; the others were merely trying their luck. Some people had only heard rumors about the treasure there, so everyone hoped for a windfall and would try every possible means to go there and take a look, regardless of their safety. He planned a new route. It seemed the Papaya Spirit Planet was still a little far from here. It would take half a month's journey, and he didn't know what might happen during this time. He hoped they wouldn't encounter a massive space storm like last time. The Luo Divine Boat couldn't withstand the destruction caused by such a huge storm. "You're really capable to hide that thing in such a place!" George couldn't help but give him a thumbs-up. Most people would never possess such wisdom. The safest place is actually the most dangerous place. Who would have thought that the real treasure map would be hidden in a place already known for its treasure? That was precisely why the word "cunning" was used to describe such an old man. "You're indeed a cunning old fox..." George looked at Toslytan with a smile on his face. Toslytan's eyes widened, and he felt that these two young men were indeed more sharp-tongued than others.
