Chapter 155 Searching for Sherlock

After returning to New York, William took Ambrosio to buy various furniture, electrical appliances and daily necessities from major luxury brands in New York. On this day, Ambrosio received a call and hugged William and shouted happily. It turned out that Victoria's Secret called her to say that she would have training and she was confirmed to participate in this year's Victoria's Secret.

After William sent Ambrosio away happily, he lay on his new bed at home thinking about the treasure. It was time to find the treasure that his grandfather Henry had always been thinking about.

The message Henry left for him said that the clue to King Solomon's treasure was on a ship called "Sherlock" in the Arctic Circle.

It is now August, and it is the right time to go to the Arctic Circle. It will not be too cold. William took out the notebook in the storage space, connected to the Internet and downloaded a coordinate positioning software.

Entering the coordinates left by Henry, the computer shows that it is on the ice 37 miles away near Cape Barrow in America. At this time, Cape Barrow is the most stable time of the year. In another month, Cape Barrow will be inaccessible.

William called the National Bank to charter a plane to Cape Barrow, and spent 20,000 US dollars to buy a set of equipment and clothes that he had found online to enter the Arctic Circle.

The next morning, he set off with his equipment. It took William 6 hours to finally reach Cape Barrow in the afternoon. He stayed in the best private hotel in the area. There was no special hotel in this place. He had a special seal dinner for several Inuit people.

The taste was really bad. It was too greasy. William gritted his teeth and didn't eat half of it. In the end, he had to ask the hotel owner to make him a steak to eat.

After dinner, William discussed with the owner about finding a boat and a snowmobile. The coordinates showed a snowfield composed of ice 37 miles away.

No boat, no way to go, no snowmobile, you can't walk much on the snow.

Finally, under the introduction of the owner, William found two local guides the next day and rented a large boat with a snowmobile, a metal detector, and food and set off.

After sailing for more than an hour, William didn't know that there was a team of 7 people heading for the Sherlock more than ten miles ahead of him. These people were led by a university professor named Ben Gates and took nearly two years to find this place.

If William knew Ben Gates, he would definitely react, because the clue of Sherlock left by his family was stolen by William's ancestor from Ben Gates' great-grandfather.

The note with "Sherlock" written on it was kept in the hands of Ben Gates' father. The Gates family has been looking for King Solomon's treasure for more than two hundred years.

Things in this world are so wonderful. One is the Devonshire family who has been looking for thousands of years, and the other is the Gates family who has been looking for more than 200 years.

Their descendants all came together because of a note with Sherlock written on it. Because there were a lot of floating ice on the sea, it took more than three hours for William's ship to reach the island.

After the guide drove the snowmobile off the boat, William didn't let anyone follow him. It's better to find treasures with fewer people knowing about it. And he has a portal, so at worst he can teleport directly back to Oxford.

A man drove a snowmobile to the coordinates indicated on the computer.

He and the guide agreed that the boat would wait for him at this landing point for two days. If William did not come back on the morning of the third day, the boat would leave.

But all his thoughts were in vain, because Ben Gates and his seven companions were driving two snowmobiles a few kilometers away from him.

Because it was the first time to drive a snowmobile, William did not dare to drive too fast. When he arrived at the coordinate point, Ben Gates and his companions had already found the specific location of Sherlock's ship, and a group of people were shoveling snow with shovels.

After hearing the sound of the snowmobile, Ben Gates and his companions looked at the snowmobile driving towards them in surprise. They never thought that there would be people in this ghost place.

William was also very surprised by Ben Gates and his gang. He even thought of killing them immediately after seeing these people.

But reason finally defeated madness. He didn't know what was in the boat, so there was no need to kill the other party now.

William parked the snowmobile about 40 meters away from the group of people. At this distance, the pistol was no longer a threat, and he had plenty of time to lie on the ground and take out the gun to fight back.

After getting off the car, William used his mental power to scan the people in front of him and found that four of the guys in the group had gun holsters hanging in their clothes. They looked fierce and were not good people.

However, the group did not show any hostility to William's arrival. It might be because the ship had not been dug out yet. William walked towards the group of people when he saw that there was no danger.

After William walked in, a guy with glasses exclaimed: "William Devonshire, that's William Devonshire, God, how could he come here"

"Riley, do you know him?" A middle-aged man who seemed to be one of the leaders asked

Riley said strangely: "Of course, Ben, are you living on Mars? This guy has appeared on TV and newspapers every day recently. Few people in the United States don't know him."

Another leader in the group said, "I know him too, William Devonshire, he is a famous person in England, an English noble, heir to an earldom, self-made, and worth over 3 billion US dollars in more than half a year."

Ben Gates was shocked when he heard his companion's words, "What is this kind of person doing here, and Ian, you said his name is Devonshire, DEVON in German"

No mistake in one song, one post, one content, one book, one forum, one 6, one 9!

Ian nodded and said, "Of course, William Devonshire was a nobleman more than 600 years earlier than the Grand Duke of Devonshire. He has revived it in his hands. There are few people in England who don't know William now."

"God, I know who this guy is. He has the same purpose as us. He is also looking for treasure." Ben Gates shouted immediately after hearing Ian's answer, "This guy is a liar. His ancestor cheated my ancestor of a clue. He must have found this place because of Sherlock."

At this time, William had walked to a place not many meters away from them. Originally, William was a little happy when he suddenly saw the familiar face of the big star in his previous life, because he now understood what this so-called treasure was.

But when he heard the big star in his previous life say that his ancestor was a liar, William's eyes turned and said, "Thomas Gates is a liar and a thief. This treasure does not belong to your Gates family at all. Thomas Gates is just a message passer, and he not only did not think about passing the message, but also concealed the message, and even wanted to take it all for himself."

"You lied. My ancestor was not a liar or a thief. He told the right people the news. Only your Devonshire family used despicable means to cheat the clues from my ancestor," Ben Gates retorted loudly.

"Haha, that's because Thomas Gates knew that the secret could not be kept, so he had to tell the people he should have told earlier. There was a difference of nearly 20 years in between. Ben, can you tell me why Thomas told it 20 years later?" William said with a smile.

"And after Thomas told it, he immediately sold the news to my ancestor for 1,000 pounds. Can you explain why, Mr. Ben Gates?"
