Treasure Hunt all over the World - Chapter 3229
Treasure hunt around the world (
Chapter 3229 Another treasure
Ye Tian briefly introduced the situation, but concealed a lot of key information.
He told these media reporters that the two boxes that were salvaged earlier contained some gold and silverware, but he did not say the origin and value of those gold and silverware.
This is the pirate treasure hidden by the black baron Roberts, one of the top ten pirates, and he naturally did not reveal a word.
Otherwise, these media reporters will probably be crazy about it.
Those viewers who are watching the live broadcast of this underwater treasure hunt, as well as the guys with ulterior motives around them, must also go crazy.
Especially the guys around who are coming towards Atlantis, maybe they will change their minds, and then take the risk and go straight into this warning area, or sneak here from the bottom of the sea.
Even if he didn’t say that what he found was the pirate treasure of black baron Roberts, his words still caused quite a stir in the outside world.
Those who are watching this live broadcast, their eyes are all red with envy and jealousy, and there is a lot of discussion.
“Fake! This bastard’s luck is so unbelievable. He actually found another pirate treasure, as if all the treasures were prepared for him. How unfair he is!”
“I don’t know how big this pirate treasure is. Is it just these two boxes, or are there many boxes of treasures, but Steven and the others haven’t found it yet?”
While most people are envious and jealous, some guys are already discussing how to grab a piece of this pirate treasure whose size is unknown.
On a cargo ship outside the warning zone delimited by the joint exploration fleet, several guys were discussing with enthusiasm.
“I didn’t expect that this seabed actually hides a treasure of pirates. Since we have come here, we can’t go there for nothing, and we have to get a bite of meat to eat.
You can’t just watch that guy from Steven swept up this pirate treasure, why should all the good things belong to him, and the others can’t even get a hair.”
said a white man in his thirties.
Before he finished speaking, another guy next to him continued:
“That’s right, we can’t let that guy take all the cheap stuff. It will be dark in a few hours. We can use the cover of night to sneak over and explore that seabed, maybe we can find a few boxes of gold and silver. Treasure and make a fortune”
At this moment, a guy in his twenties suddenly said:
“Who of us has experience in deep diving at night? The temperature of the sea water will drop a lot at night, so the semi-dry wetsuits we bring are probably not good, right?
Even if we can reach the seabed smoothly, is it necessary to turn on the searchlight to explore the treasure? What can we do to avoid being discovered by Steven and those guys? ”
“what!”
With an exclamation, those guys who dreamed of finding pirate treasures and making a fortune were all stunned.
Only then did they find out.
The methods they thought of had no chance of success at all, they were just fantasies.
On the super yacht, Ye Tian had finished meeting with the media reporters, then walked off the top deck and returned to the Intrepid on the speedboat.
The exploration of the depths of the sea is still going on.
It’s a pity that Pique and the others still haven’t found anything surprising.
Although they scanned several metal objects, after some exploration and analysis, they found that those objects had nothing to do with pirate treasures.
They also found two underwater caves, but after exploring with small underwater robots, they found nothing.
In the blink of an eye, the time has come to more than five o’clock in the afternoon, close to six o’clock.
Pique and the others have been exploring the seabed for a long time, and it is almost time for them to come up. Otherwise, danger is likely to occur, and it is not conducive to the development of subsequent exploration operations.
Realizing this, Ye Tian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
“Pique, it’s almost time. For safety, you can float to the surface. Before you come up, you mark the bottom of the sea and continue to explore tomorrow.
In the process of surfacing to the sea, you must make a decompression stop, don’t worry, the small submarine will follow you to the surface and provide you with support”
The next moment, Pique’s voice came from the walkie-talkie.
“Received, Steven, we’re going to go up now, we’ll pay attention to safety!”
Afterwards, Pique and the others began to prepare for floating to the surface.
After a while, they were already marked, and then began to slowly ascend.
Seeing this, everyone who stayed in the cabin of the Brave Intrepid got up one after another, preparing to go to the deck outside to blow the wind and enjoy the scenery at sea.
At this moment, Ye Tian’s cell phone rang suddenly.
The call was from Nick, who was still in Rabat, leading a team to excavate and clear the treasures of the Roman Senate in the ruins of Shera.
Ye Tian took out his mobile phone and glanced at it, and then answered the call.
The next moment, Nick’s excited voice came over.
“Good afternoon, Steven, I heard that you found a pirate treasure in the depths of the sea near Casablanca, congratulations, I also have good news to tell you”
Hearing this, Ye Tian’s face immediately flashed a smile.
“What good news do you have for me, boy? Let’s hear it”
“After several days of work, we have just dug up this treasure deep underground in the ancient Roman Senate in the ruins of Shera. This process is really twists and turns.”
“You dug up a treasure deep underground in the ruins of the Senate? This is really good news, great!”
Ye Tian pretended to be surprised.
Following his words, everyone who was planning to leave the cabin stopped and turned to look.
Without exception, each of them was full of surprises.
“Great, Steven, what treasure is hidden in this ancient Roman Senate treasure?”
“What day is it today? It’s perfect to have discovered two treasures one after another.”
Professor Paul and the others said with emotion, and they were all very excited.
Ye Tian smiled softly and continued talking to Nick.
“Nick, take over the scene of excavating the treasure of the Senate, I’ll take a look at the specific situation, and let everyone know about this ancient treasure.”
“Okay, Steven, let’s connect the video signal now”
Nick responded.
A moment later, the scene of the exploration of the ruins of Rabat Shera appeared on the big-screen TV.
The video screen of Pique and the others floating on the surface was shrunk and pulled to the corner of the screen.
Nick, who appeared on the big TV screen, was beaming with excitement.
This guy first waved at the camera, and then said excitedly:
“Steven, the big pit behind me is what we dug these days, and the bottom of the pit is the treasure of the ancient Roman Senate.
However, there is some accumulated water at the bottom of the pit, and the things in the treasure cannot be seen for the time being. All the things dug out of this pit are piled up here.”
While he was introducing the situation, everyone also saw the big pit behind him.
The big pit is funnel-shaped, about six meters deep, and the diameter of the pit is seven or eight meters.
On the top of the big pit, a welded steel frame is erected, and four combined winches are erected around the edge of the pit mouth to assist in the excavation operation.
All the stones dug out of this big pit were numbered and placed in the open space not far away, and piled up into hills.
Not only that, the state of these stones before they were dug out was all recorded by filming.
After the treasure of the ancient Roman senate is found, it will be restored to its previous appearance, and there cannot be any difference.
Because of this, the excavation of this ancient Roman treasure has been so slow, and it took many days to unearth the treasure.
It is no exaggeration to say that this treasure of the ancient Roman Senate was dug up with a spoon, which is no different from an archaeological excavation.
On the walls around this big pit, there are many very obvious traces of fracture and distortion, such as broken stone slabs and so on.
Apparently, it was the result of the great Lisbon earthquake in the mid-eighteenth century.
It was also that terrifying earthquake that directly destroyed the ancient Roman Senate that once stood here.
Looking down from the edge of the pit mouth, there is some accumulated water at the bottom of the pit, and the specific condition of the ancient Roman treasure at the bottom of the pit cannot be seen for the time being.
Two employees of the Fearless Exploration Company, who were tied with safety ropes, were hung at the bottom of the pit, discussing how to drain the water at the bottom of the pit.
After a while, Ye Tian already knew something about the situation in this big pit.
Then he said on the phone:
“Nick, let me see the situation of the corridor leading to this treasure room. Have you cleaned up the antiques hidden in that corridor?”
“Okay, Steven, we’ve dug up that tunnel deep underground,…”
Nick responded.
With that said, a deep ditch appeared on the video screen, with a width of about three meters.
One end of this deep ditch is connected to the big pit, and the other end leads to the location of the base of the Doric column found earlier.
As in the case of the big pit, everything and every stone dug out of this deep ditch was numbered and piled up on the ground on both sides of this deep ditch.
The difference is that this deep ditch is not that deep, and there is no stagnant water, and the bottom of the pit is relatively dry.
On both sides of this deep ditch, there are also many traces of twisted fractures, and there are many collapsed places.
Through the video screen, Ye Tian quickly checked the situation of this deep ditch, and also had a certain understanding of this ancient corridor.
Immediately afterwards, Nick turned the camera on the antique artifacts dug up from this corridor.
Among them are slates and blocks inscribed with ancient Greek and ancient Latin, bronze candlesticks with rust, and several small sculptures.
And these small sculptures are also the most eye-catching.
Among them, the statue of Poseidon, the sea **** holding a trident, instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
This is also the most beautiful sculpture.
“Steven, can you determine the origin of this sculpture of Poseidon, the **** of the sea, through the video footage? Is it an ancient Greek sculpture, an ancient Roman sculpture, or a sculpture from another era?”
Professor Kane asked curiously.
“It’s not difficult. I can tell you with great certainty that this is a sculpture from the ancient Roman period. It should have been created between 100 or 200 AD and has a very long history.”
Ye Tian smiled and nodded, giving a positive answer.
“So what is the valuation of this Poseidon sculpture? Since it is an ancient Roman sculpture with a very long history, is it worth a lot?”
Yahya asked successively.
This is also a question that everyone is very concerned about, and everyone looks at Ye Tian.
After pondering for a while, Ye Tian gave the answer:
“Yes, just because it is an ancient Roman sculpture and is preserved almost perfectly, its value is quite amazing, with high artistic value and collection value.
But through the video, I can’t identify it as the work of the sculptor in ancient Rome for the time being. I can only see the real thing, so I can’t give an accurate estimate.
If this sculpture is a master work, its value is of course very high, and it may be worth a lot, but if it is the work of an unknown sculptor, its value will be greatly reduced.”
Hearing this, everyone nodded.
Later, Ye Tian asked Nick to take pictures of all the details of the sculpture, and then sent them to himself.
He also let Nick take pictures of the other small sculptures, stones engraved with ancient Greek and ancient Latin, and other antique artifacts.
After checking these things, he warned again:
“Nick, when you clean up this ancient Roman senate treasure, you must be careful and beware of landslides to avoid accidents.
Every piece of gold and silver treasures and antiques removed from this treasure must be recorded, videotaped and sent to me.”
“Understood, Steven, we know what to do, don’t worry.”
Nick said confidently.
Next, they chatted a few more words, and then ended the call.
The video footage of the cleanup of ancient Roman treasures in the ruins of Rabat Shera was not interrupted, but continued live.
In the following time, the treasure excavation and clean-up operations on the Shera ruins can be witnessed throughout the whole process, as if they were on the scene.
While speaking, Pique and the small submarine have surfaced.
After hearing the announcement, Ye Tian immediately left the cabin and walked outside to check on Pique and the others.
David and Yahya, who were also in the cabin, also left the cabin one after another and went to the main deck outside to enjoy the wind and enjoy the scenery!
Pique and the others are doing fine, except that they are very tired, and there is no problem.
Of course, they all need a good rest for a whole day before they can go down to the depths of the sea again to explore, or to fly in an airplane.
After taking off the diving suit, these guys all collapsed on the deck.
Seeing that they were all right, Ye Tian went over to check the situation of the guys in the small submarine.
Those guys didn’t have any problems, they all looked like they didn’t know what to do.
