Traveling through the heavens and worlds from Marvel

Chapter 8 Preparing to enter the rainforest

When we came to the street, noisy sounds rushed into Mark's ears. The street was busy with traffic and there was an endless stream of tourists.

Do so many people really like tropical rainforests?

"Rushui, the Mulu Wildlife Park just now was really good. It was an eye-opener for me. The orangutan is taller than me, he should be 185cm."

"Also, that proboscis monkey looks really funny. His nose is actually so big and long, just like an eggplant."

"And that hornbill actually has a rhinoceros horn growing out of its head. It's so weird."

"Where are we going next? The Dannon Valley Botanic Gardens? Are there any interesting or novel plants there?"

Well, a few tourists passing by Mark explained it all to him.

They came here for the tropical biology museum built here.

It is estimated that not many brave people want to explore the depths of the rainforest.

The tropical rainforest at this time is not the territory of humans. It is a paradise for wild animals and plants. For ordinary people to enter the tropical rainforest, it can be said that they have a narrow escape.

Mark understood.

It's not the rainy season yet in Borneo, so there are a lot of people coming here to travel and have fun, and it's estimated that there are also a lot of animal and plant scientists going to the rainforest to investigate.

It seems that he is one step ahead of the protagonist group.

Mark immediately set off to find a local guide. If he wanted to enter the rainforest, it would be most convenient and quickest to find a local guide. It would be most convenient and quick to go in by boat.

Advantages should be used to expand.

"Hey kid, take it easy, we're just after the money."

When Mark passed by a narrow place, two local gangsters surrounded him and put a knife on Mark's lower back.

emmm, this is how people are ripped off in foreign countries at this time?

It's authentic, but it's not very particular.

But Mark also went with them. He happened to feel that the cash he brought was a bit insufficient. No, here comes the gold coins.

The two held Mark hostage all the way to a remote corner and surrounded him.

"Boy, should you pay for it yourself or should we help you?"

As he spoke, he gestured with the knife in his hand.

"Don't get excited, I'll do it myself."

Mark slowly put his hand into his clothes, and when he took it out again, there was a gun in his hand.

The situation was under control.

"Hey guys, it's my turn now."

When he walked out of the alley again, Mark was alone, with an extra handful of bills in his hand.

They had a good harvest today.But now it's all Mark's.

Mark also asked the two gangsters for the information he wanted to know.

It was mid-October, and the rainy season in Borneo was about to begin. There were fewer and fewer boats willing to go upstream to the rainforest. It seemed that he had to hurry up.

Mark naturally asked for the information about the target person "Jin Song". As long as he was willing to pay, he could take people anywhere at any time.

But before going to him, Mark had to make some money first. The few Franklins he had on him were not enough to impress Jin Song.

Just do what you say, Mark heads towards the gangster boss's lair.

As a SHIELD agent, when you encounter criminal groups, you must destroy them and restore peace to the people of the world.Of course, it is human nature to charge some hard work fees.

You're welcome, this is what he should do.

The bar was filled with smoke and the music was deafening.

"Hey, do you know where Jin Song is?"

Mark was asking the bartender, no, shouting.

"He's not here."

"But someone told me that if you want to find Jin Song, come to this bar."

"He took people to the rainforest and hasn't come back yet."

Unlucky.

Mark was about to leave when a bearded local came and sat down next to him.

"Hey, boy, what are you doing with Jin Song?"

The bartender also chatted and introduced.

"He is Vince Li, the most experienced guide in the area. If you want to go to the rainforest, you can find him."

Vince Li raised his glass to the bartender, and then turned to look at Mark.

"Fresh face, what do you do? What do you want to do in the rainforest?"

Mark: "How much?"

Mark looked at him carefully and didn't recognize him, but since he was an experienced local guide, he thought it would be useful.No other pleasantries were said, just straightforward.

Vince Li: "I like your directness."

"Let's do this, discounted price, ten thousand dollars."

Vince Li didn't care about Mark's identity, as long as he could make money, why bother with so much.

After all, it is not the rainy season. There are many tourists coming to Borneo from all over the world. It is the peak tourist season, and the price of renting a boat is not too expensive.

As for other regular boat rental companies, they either only take planned routes, or the rent is too expensive and they require Mark to drive the boat himself.

As a person from another world, he is not familiar with the environment here, so of course he needs a guide.

Since Jin Song is not here, the person in front of him is not bad.There is no shortage of force marks, but someone who is familiar with the terrain is missing, and Vince Li just makes up for this.

Mark: "Deal."

There was no haggling, Mark agreed directly.

It's not yours anyway, so there's no need to feel bad about spending it.

Vince Li: "Really, how about fifteen thousand?"

Vince Li felt that his mouth was not open enough.Hey, as I get older, I become less courageous, so it’s no wonder that my wife has run away.

Mark rolled his eyes at him and asked, "When can we leave at the earliest?"

Vince Li: "Where are you going?"

Mark: "Satan Basin."

Vince Li: "Satan Basin, so far away?"

"It will take at least three days to get to Sartan from here. Ten thousand dollars is not enough, at least twenty thousand."

Mark: "Okay."

Vince Li: "The morning after tomorrow. My boat is being maintained now and will be completed tomorrow afternoon."

"This is a good time to buy some things."

"Then it's settled, boss. We'll set off at Bataan Pier at seven o'clock the day after tomorrow."

Mark looked at Vince Li, nodded, put down his glass, and left the bar.

The bartender came to Vince Li's side again, "Congratulations, Old Man Li, another order has been placed."

Vince Li: "Don't worry, the commission I should give you will not be less."

After hearing the promise, the bartender turned back to his own business.

When we left the bar, it was already dark.

On the way back to the hotel, Mark began to think about what to bring into the rainforest.

There are a lot of giant pythons inside, plus some other dangerous creatures, so you still have to be prepared to feel at ease.

The small pistol he brought was good for sneak attacks, but facing the giant python, he probably could only remove its dead skin.

Well, go find a local snake.I've already been in trouble once, and it seems a little more familiar the second time.

Spears, spray guns, machetes, and some other rainforest exploration equipment. Although the local snake was bruised and swollen, he moved quickly, and these things were delivered to Mark in a short time.

And he sent Mark away like the god of plague.

Local snake: "It seems that we can't stay in this place anymore. Let's go out and seek refuge first, and find a master to change our luck."

Mark's role is still very obvious. At least in the few days after his arrival, the atmosphere in Borneo has improved a lot, and the probability of tourists encountering extortion incidents has dropped to the lowest level in history.

S.H.I.E.L.D.'s sphere of influence has expanded to other worlds. This is all thanks to Mark. I hope that Lu Dantou will be more conscious and give him a promotion and a salary increase.
