Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Among the unearthed artifacts, a wooden box caught their attention. It was
securely locked, rendering it particularly more valuable than the rest.
With gloved hands, Winston gingerly cut through the ancient iron lock. To their
astonishment, they found that it contained a logbook, a priceless discovery that
left everyone elated. “This expedition isn't in vain after all. We're finally getting
somewhere!” he exclaimed, his excitement palpable.
Willow was unable to contain her joy either, as the purpose of their journey was
solely to uncover the secrets of the past and recover lost national treasures.
Moreover, this was an achievement that would surely make a significant mark in
the archaeology world. “Let's take it back to the ship to take a closer look now.”
When they only discovered a dozen or so skeletal remains after excavating for
thirty minutes, Winston suggested that these were the crew members who had
passed away from malnutrition or disease and had been buried next to the
official.
Soon, they discovered the source of the mysterious signal as well. It was a
sizable meteorite rich in minerals that had been surprisingly buried nearby,
causing all electronics within a thirty feet radius to lose accuracy.
After three days of digging, they finally managed to clear the ancient tomb. Once
done, they returned to the ship and started their urgent research, which Morgan
participated in as well. Desperate for money, he had taken pictures of the
logbook and submitted it to an artifact dealer.
Soon, he received a reply from them. “I need you to translate the information
ASAP and send the details to me. If you do so, I'll pay you 750 thousand as a
deposit.”
Driven by the allure of money, Morgan became braver. Coincidentally, he
happened to be one of the members of the translation team as well.
As the others gathered in the meeting room to translate the ancient text, he
entered the contents of every single page into the computer. Since each of them
was an excellent member of the literary field, it was not a difficult feat for them to
translate the logbook. However, it was three volumes long, making it impossible
for them to complete the translation right away, and they had no choice but to
finish reading all three before they could proceed to the next step.
In the midst of it all, Morgan discreetly. downloaded a copy and sent it to the
dealer. When he immediately received the money he was promised, he was filled
with smug glee, thinking that 1.5 million would soon be his.
The team had begun to grow tired before the investigation could fully begin. In
the evening. the meeting room was still fully lit when a bodyguard suddenly
walked in. “Stop the meeting. A pirate ship is heading toward us.”
“What?” Winston shot to his feet in shock. The crowd was dumbstruck by the
news. They had thought of pirate ships as a mere myth, and none had expected
one to appear in the open sea.
“My goodness! Do you think they're carrying guns?”
“They definitely have bombs!” “I heard that pirates are all barbarians. Are we in
danger?” a female team member yelped, blanching from fear.
On the contrary, Willow calmly comforted her. “Don’t worry. It's not like we're
unprepared. Even if we have to deal with them, we have nothing to be scared of.”
“Miss Presgrave, are you not afraid at all?”
Willow chuckled. “This ship isn't just any ordinary ferry. It's equipped with military-
issued defense systems, so all these windows are bullet-proof.”
As soon as her words fell, the female team members let out a breath of relief.
“Have you all forgotten? We still have Commissioner Wyatt with us. As long as
he’s here, we'll be safe,” one of them piped up.
