From the God of Lies to the Lord of All Worlds

Chapter 372 The Great Exploration Plan of the World

The second week after the start of Poplar's Caribbean project, and the fourth day after the discovery of the shipwreck in Galveston Bay, south of Houston.

Along the Caribbean coast are tiny islands, which could also be described as a group of tiny countries.

Among them are Haiti, a moral low point; Cuba, America's archenemy; Venezuela, the world's largest oil reserve country; and the islands and ports of Britain and France, classic troublemakers.

In that era, they relied on these islands to reap huge profits in trade with the Americas, becoming a top world power.

However, things are calm and peaceful here now.

After all, this sea area is currently patrolled by America's fleet, and apart from America causing trouble herself, no country in the world has the right to cause trouble here.

Even though America has become somewhat weakened under the command of supernatural forces, she is still America, isn't she?

They still wield significant global influence and maintain a crucial position here.

This time, however, the Atlantic Fleet was greeted by a group of uninvited guests.

The two groups were clearly divided, and it was obvious that they had a deep-seated conflict, but now they had to come together to negotiate with the fleet commander.

The two teams are led by Austin Nash and Elton Newland, respectively.

Austin is an old acquaintance, a direct descendant of Gao, the head of America's Special Affairs Bureau, and now a renowned special affairs handler throughout the United States.

As for Elton? His first name is irrelevant, but his last name is Newland! Which Newland? Which Newland in California!

He is the nephew of California Governor Nuland and the head of California's Special Affairs Department. Under these domestic circumstances, they are practically the bridgehead between the two major powers!

This standoff is completely unjustified and there is absolutely no way to ease it, because the forces behind them have completely broken ties domestically.

This gave Second Fleet Commander Harvey a headache. Neither of these guys were easy to mess with, and he couldn't afford to offend either of them.

Because one of them is the current president's man, offending him means that if it's reported, he'll immediately make things difficult for you. The other one is a little better off, as he can't control you now, but if the other one is actually elected in three years, you'll still be held accountable later!

These two parties have controlled America for nearly a century, and even though the military claims to be independent of both parties, it cannot be said that it can truly remain completely uninvolved.

Have you not seen the recent actions of the renamed War Department? They've even started putting pressure on those long-serving veterans.

So Harvey could only look at both of them at the same time, "What exactly do you need? I'll help if I can, but if I can't, then I'm sorry..."

“Your Excellency Commander, of course, I am only here on the orders of the President to conduct some very simple investigations, and it will not interfere with your actions!” Austin quickly said.

Elton chimed in, "Yes, we're just passing through. Maybe we're even going to different places?"

“Then tell me your destination!” Harvey said.

“We’re going to Haiti, Port-au-Prince!” Austin replied.

“We’re going to Jamaica!” Elton replied.

Harvey sighed, "Isn't this the same place?"

These two countries are separated by a sea. How can you tell them that these two people have different goals?
He believes it himself, but do these two people believe it?
It was obvious that the two sides' gazes turned extremely hostile upon hearing each other's target!
Elton looked directly at Austin. "What did Washington discover?"

Austin, not to be outdone, stared at him. "I'm more curious about what you've discovered..."

"You thought I was going to tell you?"

"And you think I'd tell you?"

The two sides exchanged a glance, snorted coldly, and then parted on bad terms.

Since their goals are similar, let's each rely on our own abilities. After all, what they have in their hands is the key to solving this case!
Both sides think this way, and coincidentally, they are not the only ones who think this way.

Many countries around the world think this way!
... Buckingham Palace, England.

King Charles and his eldest son, Prince William, are reviewing documents with their new Prime Minister, Sunak, who is of Indian descent.

Sunak had already been dismissed, but Charlie recalled him because he discovered that, apart from him, the prime ministers of the past two years had done nothing of substance and had only been making money!

Sunak at least still does some work and has rid some of the bad apples, while the rest of the people, after seeing that things were hopeless, simply gave up and reaped the benefits.

Knowing their term was short, they issued many outrageous decrees during their tenure and incidentally placed their own people in important positions.

For example, a 30-kilometer high-speed rail line cost 400 billion pounds, which is 13 billion pounds per kilometer. Even if you poured all that money into it, you could finish building the high-speed rail line, but it is still a long way off.

When asked, they say the money has been spent, but they don't know where it went. They just want more money for repairs...

Charlie felt a headache coming on. When did the British Empire become like this? Back then, those civil servants might have been corrupt, but at least they did their jobs!
This group of people nowadays are eager to squeeze every last drop of blood from Great Britain, yet they refuse to do even the slightest bit of practical work. In comparison, the Indians are actually better off, because they genuinely don't want to return to their own country, so they actually do their jobs.

Of course, whether the job is done well or not, and whether the goal is to turn this place back into India, are two separate issues.

But none of that matters; what matters is the document in their hands!
“This is a note from the British Museum. It was originally supposed to be a record by a naturalist, written around 1661 in Jamaica…” Prince William described the contents of the document to his elderly father. “It was originally a record of the local natives worshipping the feathered serpent god and then causing the Spanish gold-carrying ships to sink.”

"This document is nothing special; it was only rediscovered after we discovered that Quetzalcoatl was real!"

“But what was found along with this document is what we need to focus on!” William said softly, unfolding a document. “It’s a log from 1725, from that infamous pirate, Blackbeard!”

"To be precise, he was Edward Teach's adjutant!"

Upon hearing this, the old king finally looked up. "Edward Teach from the America affair?"

It must be said that America's intelligence network was both powerful and weak. The bond between father and son allowed Great Britain to easily obtain information about the special incident originating in Texas, and even manage to get copies and translations.

So they also learned about the ship and the cemetery, which led to their search at the British Museum.

“Yes, this manuscript proves the truth of that matter once again!” Prince William said. “The manuscript says that it was their leader who stuffed the horse bone into the priest’s chest cavity, which gave the compass the ability to locate that cemetery!”

"Furthermore, the document states that if we want to get there, we need to find three sacred artifacts to quell the gods' wrath?"

Upon hearing this, they understood that this was clearly a part that was not recorded in America's document.

It has to be Great Britain, with its vast collections and abundant materials. They have information that America doesn't have.

"So, if we can appease the gods' wrath, will we be able to find that special tomb, just like these pirates say? And perhaps even obtain that extraordinary power?"

Sunak said, which brightened the old king's eyes.

"Quickly, call the Royal Navy! Our Royal Navy will return to its loyal Caribbean! Just like it did three hundred years ago!"

Not only Britain, but many European countries that received this news thought the same way.

Royal Palace in Stockholm, Sweden.

As Gustav XVI listened to Freya's words, he slowly said, "I understand what you mean, so that place is also a remnant of the Aesir gods?"

Freya nodded. "Yes, I sensed the presence of the gods. Our divine artifact is appearing in that sea!"

“Then go! I will send a note to America, and since you are Aesir, you don’t need to give anyone a hint, just go!”

Besides them, several other countries also found traces of these materials in their own databases that were originally related to the Age of Exploration.

They were all famous nations of the Age of Exploration, or nations with some connection to deities.

For example, the Royal Palace in Amsterdam, Netherlands;
Royal Palace, Madrid, Spain;
France, the Palace of Versailles...

In this post-Age of Exploration era, Europe was once again swept up in a new wave of exploration, only this time, it was extraordinary seafaring!
The only thing that's puzzling is the golden retriever. Is America a sieve? Everyone knows that? Anyone can come here? Is it a public toilet?
P.S.: There's hope! I'm not sleepy anymore, so I can write an extra chapter!
