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.
