Treasure Hunt all over the World

Latest website: Chapter 3179: Cut off thoughts

The small drone had to hover deep in the secret passage.

What stood in front of it was a pile of dirt and rocks, almost blocking the entire secret passage.

Seeing this scene, everyone's faces became quite ugly.

"There is indeed a landslide deep in the secret passage. Doesn't this mean that if we want to find out the situation of this ancient Roman treasure, we must dig up the ground of the Senate site?"

"I'm afraid this is the only way. I hope this ancient Roman treasure will not disappoint everyone, otherwise it will be a bit uneconomical."

Everyone started talking, feeling somewhat disappointed.

Ye Tian said nothing.

He quickly glanced at the ground of the Senate ruins, and then fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he suddenly said:

“Although there were landslides in this secret passage deep underground, there was no corresponding collapse on the ground at the Senate site.

It can be seen that there should be a hollow area between the collapse of the secret tunnel and the ground, and small drones may be able to pass through that hollow area."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

"Yes, there must be a cavity deep underground, it should be just above the landslide area."

Professor Paul said excitedly.

Before he finished speaking, Ye Tian had already issued an order.

"Jeremy, you control the small drone to check the edge of the landslide area to see if you can find a gap to pass through. Continue to explore. Be more careful."

"Okay, Steven, leave this to me."

Jeremy nodded in response and took action immediately.

He first adjusted the flight attitude of the small drone and the attitude of the strong searchlight mounted underneath it, and then controlled the small drone to slowly approach the landslide area.

In just a moment, he had already discovered something.

"Steven, there is indeed a gap here, but it is a bit narrow. If a small drone wants to fly through it, it needs to take a certain risk."

Following his words, Ye Tian also saw the gap on the monitoring screen.

The gap at the junction of the collapse area and the secret passage where the drone is located is only thirty to forty centimeters high and about half a meter wide.

Due to the darkness in the underground secret passage, the gap was not easy to find.

After seeing the gap, Ye Tian did not make an immediate decision.

He took a screenshot of the video, enlarged the screenshot and observed it carefully, and then joked:

"Jeremy, with the height and width of this gap, a small drone should be able to fly through it. It depends on your micro-control level!

It doesn’t matter if we can’t get through. The worst we can do is dig down from the ground. I can still bear the loss of a small drone.”

In fact, this problem is not difficult to solve.

Just put the micro beetle drone into the secret tunnel, and all problems will be solved.

But there were many Moroccans present, and they were all senior Moroccan officials.

In front of these guys, Ye Tian didn't want to expose the existence of the micro-beetle drone, which would make the Moroccans more vigilant, which would be detrimental to confidentiality and future actions.

In the future, if we have a falling out with the Moroccans or even become rivals, and we need to spy on the information, the miniature beetle drone may be of great use.

Hearing his words, Jeremy couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, the guy gritted his back molars and said:

"Don't worry, Steven, I will definitely be able to make this small drone pass through that gap safely and fly into the empty area behind."

Before he finished speaking, the small drone approached the gap little by little and tried to pass through the gap.

Don't tell me, Jeremy is really not bragging. His ability to control drones is indeed very good.

After several attempts, the small drone finally passed through the gap without any danger.

What then appeared on the surveillance screen was a medium-sized hollow area, about two meters high and less than three meters wide.

In the blink of an eye, the small drone flew to the other side of the collapse area, began to look for an exit, and entered the secret passage again.

There is also a gap over there, and it is wider.

Effortlessly, the small drone flew into the next section of the secret passage, and then continued to fly forward along the secret passage.

The slope of this section of the secret passage has become much steeper. Every place on the steps, walls, and top of the secret passage is covered with dust and covered with moss.

Those places are covered tightly, and the situation is impossible to know.

In this secret passage, the small drone discovered several more bronze candlesticks and two ancient sculptures.

Judging from the shape, these two sculptures are Apollo, the sun god, and Mars, the god of war.

Like the previous statue of Poseidon, the material and artistic value of these two ancient Roman statues cannot be judged for the time being, nor can it be determined whose works they are.

But just because they come from the ancient Roman Empire around 60 AD, they are certainly worth a lot of money.

If they were the work of a famous ancient Roman sculptor, they would be priceless pieces of top antique art!

In the following secret passage, there was no more landslide.

However, two cracks more than ten centimeters wide were found on the top of the corridor, which were obviously damage caused by the Lisbon earthquake.

In a moment, the small drone flew deep underground where the ancient Roman treasure that had been detected previously was located.

As everyone expected, there is indeed a secret room hidden deep underground, or rather a treasure room.

This underground treasure room originally had a stone door about 1.8 meters high and just over 1 meter wide.

However, due to the tempering of the years and the huge destructive power of the Lisbon earthquake, this stone gate has long since collapsed.

Fortunately, the stone door collapsed outward and fell on the floor of the corridor instead of inward.

If it collapses inward, some of the things hidden in the treasure room will inevitably be damaged, or even completely destroyed.

As this underground treasure room appeared on the surveillance screen, there was a burst of cheers.

"Awesome! We finally found this ancient Roman treasure. I wonder what treasures are hidden in it and how much is it worth?"

"Wow! I didn't expect that there is actually an ancient Roman treasure here. It's incredible!"

Just as everyone was cheering, a small drone flew into this ancient treasure room.

What then appeared on the surveillance screen was a hill completely covered with dust and moss, more than two meters high, facing the open stone door.

As soon as the small drone flew close to this gray hill, the small metal detector it carried emitted a pleasant chirping sound, which was extremely moving.

Listening to this sound, everyone on the ground was excited.

"It seems that there are all metal objects buried under this dust-covered hill. I didn't expect there to be so many, it's amazing!"

"I wonder what these metal objects are? Gold and silver treasures or ancient weapons?"

"If this hill were filled with gold and silver treasures, that would be too scary. Could it be that all the gold and silver treasures in the entire province of Mauritania are hidden here?"

Everyone was talking enthusiastically, and everyone was beaming.

At this moment, Ye Tian suddenly smiled and said:

"Judging from the way these metal objects are stacked, it is much more likely that they are gold and silver treasures than ancient weapons, which means that the value of this ancient Roman treasure may be very amazing.

According to my guess, they should be packed in boxes, and those boxes were moved into this underground secret room and then stacked up, but for some reason, no one came to take them away.

Due to long-term isolation from the outside world and being in an environment without oxygen, these boxes were preserved in very good condition and even survived until the 18th century, but were destroyed by the Lisbon earthquake.

During the Lisbon earthquake, the hill made of these boxes collapsed and turned into what you see now. Fortunately, this secret room was very strong and did not collapse during the earthquake."

With Ye Tian's speculation and explanation, everyone became more excited.

The only pity is that the surface of the hill, which was probably made of gold and silver treasures, was covered with a thick layer of dust and moss, and was completely covered up.

For a while, no one could tell whether the things under the dust were gold, silver, or some other treasure.

Jeremy controlled the small drone and flew around the gray hill.

Nothing new was discovered except that there were a lot of metal objects under the dust.

Then, he controlled a small drone and began to check the situation in other places.

This treasure room hidden deep underground is not large, only less than twenty square meters. It looks like it is made of granite and is very solid.

There are two stone pillars standing inside the treasure room, supporting this ancient underground building.

What is amazing is that these two stone pillars were not destroyed by the Lisbon earthquake. Otherwise, the treasure house would have collapsed long ago.

In the four corners of the treasure room, there are four small sculptures, two of which have fallen to the ground and are damaged.

The other two statues fell on their pedestals and appear to be in slightly better condition.

Unlike the sculptures found in the secret passage before, these sculptures are not of ancient Roman gods, but of animals such as lions and wolves.

Among them is a sculpture of a she-wolf, shaped like a she-wolf nursing a baby, telling the origin of Rome.

These four ancient Roman sculptures are also covered with a thick layer of dust and moss. Only the outlines can be seen, but the details cannot be seen clearly, making it difficult to make an accurate assessment.

But one thing is for sure, they are worth a lot of money.

Apart from this, there is nothing else in this treasure room.

After flying around the secret room a few times and exploring all the places, Ye Tian said:

"Jeremy, the situation in this treasure room is clear. There is no need to explore anymore. Let's use a small drone to explore the secret passage leading to the Atlantic Ocean and see what we find."

"Okay, Steven, leave it to me."

Jeremy nodded in response.

Then, he controlled the small drone to fly out of the treasure room and returned along the original path to explore the secret passage across the Atlantic Ocean.

Unfortunately, the small drone flew five or six meters along the branch road when its path was blocked by landslides of mud and rocks.

Unlike the landslide area in the secret passage to the east, no gap was found this time for a small drone to pass through. The secret passage to the west was tightly blocked.

After carefully investigating, Ye Tian could only ask Jeremy to take back the small drone and end the exploration temporarily.

In a moment, the small drone flew out of the secret passage.

At this moment, cheers erupted from the scene, and everyone began to high-five in celebration.

Especially the Moroccans were extremely excited and beaming.

In Morocco, few treasures have been discovered since ancient times.

What's more, how could they not be ecstatic about such an amazing ancient Roman treasure?

After everyone finished celebrating, Ye Tian smiled and said:

"Gentlemen, this ancient Roman treasure buried deep underground has now been confirmed for sure, and the value of this ancient Roman treasure may be quite astonishing, and it is of great value for exploration and excavation.

This secret passage leading to the treasure room is full of dangers. For safety reasons, you must not enter the treasure house through this secret passage and dig out and clean up this ancient Roman treasure. It would be too dangerous! "

"You are right. This secret passage is indeed very dangerous. There is a possibility of landslide at any time. It is obviously not possible to clean the treasures from here."

Professor Paul nodded in agreement.

Those Moroccans who were extremely eager to dig out this ancient Roman treasure could only nod in agreement.

The next moment, Yahya continued:

"It seems that we can only start from the ground and dig down bit by bit. This will definitely consume a lot of time and energy, and we must always pay attention to protecting the Senate ruins on the ground."

Ye Tian looked at this old friend, then smiled and nodded.

"Yes, we can only adopt this stupidest but safest method. Fortunately, we have plenty of time. We can slowly dig and clean up while fully preserving the ruins of the Senate.

I decided to keep a team of employees here to lead the excavation and cleaning of this ancient Roman treasure. The joint tripartite exploration of Atlantis will not be affected in any way."

After hearing this, everyone nodded without any objection.

The Moroccans present at the scene had a look of regret and a bit of unwillingness in their eyes.

At this time, they wished that Ye Tian would take all his men away and leave the excavation and cleaning work of this ancient Roman treasure to them and to the Moroccan exploration team.

In that case, they will have something to work on and can take action.

But they also understand that it is impossible, it is just a wishful dream!

How could they know what treasures were hidden in this ancient Roman treasure? Ye Tian already knew it.

No matter what tricks they played, they were of no use to him and there was no way to hide them!

Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian pointed to the secret passage at the bottom of the pit.

"Since we have decided to dig from the ground, the secret tunnel entrance must be sealed, and the newly dug deep pit must be filled in, lest someone get the wrong idea and cause any accidents?"

"ah!"

Everyone exclaimed and was shocked.

Especially those Moroccans, several of them had anxious looks in their eyes.

They knew very well that if this secret passage was sealed and buried, no one would have any nefarious ideas and would have to dig down from the ground.

Until then, no tricks can be played in full view of the public.

Although anxious, they could not find any convincing reason to prevent Ye Tian from sealing the entrance to the secret passage.

After thinking for a moment, the Moroccan Minister of Culture nodded and said:

"Okay, Steven, what you said makes sense. Since we are going to excavate from the ground, it is better to seal the entrance to the secret passage, which is safer."

"Now that we agree, let's take action."

Ye Tian smiled and nodded.

Then, he ordered his company employees to take action to seal the entrance to the secret tunnel and then fill in the newly dug hole.

He, Professor Paul, the Moroccan Minister of Culture and others walked aside to continue discussing the subsequent exploration and excavation of this ancient Roman treasure.

In the blink of an eye, the entrance to the secret passage at the bottom of the pit was sealed, using the granite slab at the entrance.

Immediately afterwards, the granite strips that had been lifted to the ground were lifted one by one into the pit and pressed against the granite slab again.

Looking at this scene, disappointment flashed in the eyes of several Moroccans.

Ye Tianze smiled softly and continued to discuss the follow-up action arrangements with everyone.

More than half an hour later, several extremely heavy granite bars were placed at the bottom of the pit and pressed against the granite slab, sealing the entrance to the secret passage tightly and airtight.

When Nick and the others started filling in the big hole, Ye Tian also changed the topic.

“I will not participate in the excavation and cleaning of this ancient Roman treasure. When the treasure is completely excavated and cleaned, I will come to Rabat for evaluation and distribution.

I will leave here later and go to the Udaya Castle in the old city of Saler. That ancient castle has a long history and has changed hands several times. Maybe it hides some secrets."

Hearing this, many Moroccans suddenly felt frightened.

Is this greedy bastard unable to finish looting all the treasures in Morocco?
