Chapter 2112： Ancient Greek war dolphins

Compared with the two ridges that have been explored before, the third ridge is larger and more majestic, and is closer to the sea. The highest point is only more than 150 meters from the sea.

But its lowest point is more than 3,000 meters deep. The ridge has a huge drop, knife-cut cliffs can be seen everywhere, and there are many bottomless cracks and sea caves, which can be described as perilous.

Fortunately, the top of this huge ridge running northeast and southwest is relatively flat.

If you stand on the top of this ridge and look around, it is more like a submarine hilly area within the range of the light.

Of course, the premise is that the observer is not to be on the edge of the cliff, otherwise what he sees is the abyss and the endless darkness.

Ye Tian and the others drove two small Aurora submarines, and they had explored the top of this ridge for nearly twenty minutes, and yet there were no surprises.

However, they did not get nothing.

The scenery of this seabed is also very charming, colorful and beautiful corals, all kinds of seaweeds, and strange marine life, so that each of them has a feast for the eyes.

What's more, there is a group of top killers in the ocean, a group of killer whales, accompany them to explore the shipwreck treasure, this cowhide is enough for everyone to blow for a lifetime.

"Steven, this coral reef is obviously not the ancient Roman shipwreck we are looking for. There are ordinary rocks behind the coral."

Waiters turned his head and said to Ye Tian, ​​and stopped what he was doing.

In addition to this seven-seater aurora submarine, the two probing out robotic arms have stopped working, and their front ends are still resting on a colorful coral reef.

It is a pity that part of the beautiful coral reef that has grown so hard for hundreds of thousands of years has been cut open, revealing the rock under the coral, which is just a very ordinary rock.

Ye Tian, ​​who was in the transparent glass cockpit, looked up at the cut coral reef outside, and then said with a smile:

"Since it is not the ancient Roman shipwreck we are looking for, then continue to explore, as long as the ancient Roman shipwreck treasure is on this ridge, we will definitely be able to find it."

"Understood, Steven"

With that said, Waiters was about to retract the two robotic arms.

At this moment, Matisse's voice suddenly came from the underwater wireless communication device, sounding very excited.

"Steven, we scanned a metal object that was covered with beautiful corals. Judging by the size and color of those corals, this metal object has sunk on the seabed for at least a thousand years.

From the three-dimensional scanned image, this metal object is not large, but the shape is very special. It looks like a huge teardrop-shaped pendant. It appears to have a hanging ring on the top, but it is rusty."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tian and the others immediately turned and looked to the right.

In addition, the five-seater aurora submarine was 30 meters away from the right side of the seven-seater aurora submarine, and it was just within the visual range, like a huge pearl radiating bright light, very striking.

And the few guys in that submarine were waving their hands here, all excited, and cheers continued to come from the underwater wireless communication equipment.

In previous exploration operations, we also found some metal objects and sunken ships that sank under the sea.

After analyzing one by one, those metal objects and sunken ships have sunk on the bottom of the sea in the past few hundred years. They are not of much value and are not worth the effort to salvage.

The discovery of a metal object that has sunk under the sea for more than a thousand years is the first time since the exploration began. Can you not be excited about it?

"Matisse, send me the three-dimensional scanned image of that metal object, and let me see what it is. It may be a huge surprise."

Ye Tian smiled and said loudly, but his eyes flashed with ecstasy.

"Understood, Steven, I will pass the 3D scanned image to you right away"

Matisse responded, and acted immediately.

In a blink of an eye, the three-dimensional scanned image has been transmitted over and presented on an LCD screen in front of Ye Tian.

As Matisse just said, it was a huge teardrop-shaped pendant with a diameter of sixty or seventy centimeters at the bottom and a hanging ring on the top.

Of course, this can't be a pendant, and no one can hang such a huge and heavy pendant on anyone's neck, unless it is an ancient Greek god.

The moment he saw this pendant, Ye Tian was stunned for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, an ecstasy flashed across his face and an extremely bright smile bloomed.

"Wow! War dolphin! This is the war dolphin of ancient Greece, where is the pendant!"

Ye Tian said loudly with excitement, and shook his fist vigorously, which was quite exaggerated.

There is no doubt that this is a series of very exciting performances, definitely worthy of an Oscar statuette.

"What? I heard that right? Ancient Greek war dolphins!"

Accompanied by a cry of exclamation, the experts and scholars who followed the exploratory fleet sprang up from their seats, like an electric shock.

Many professionals on the live broadcast side also behaved like them, all exclaimed.

But more people are at a loss at this time and don't understand what the so-called ancient Greek war dolphins are.

"Steven, what do you mean by the ancient Greek war dolphins? Tell everyone about it."

Chandler interrupted and said, this buddy was also confused.

Naturally, Ye Tian would not refuse this request.

"The so-called ancient Greek war dolphins are a kind of teardrop-shaped pendant. The ancient Greeks used a defensive weapon to attack enemy ships during naval battles. There were metal pendants and stone pendants.

The ancient Greeks hung the war dolphins from their warships. During naval battles, once an enemy ship approached, they urged the war dolphins to attack the hull of the enemy ship. The attack power of this thing is still amazing.

In a few words, Ye Tian explained clearly what the ancient Greek war dolphin was. .

Before everyone could react, he continued:

"The metal object that Matisse discovered was an ancient Greek war dolphin. There is no doubt that this thing must have come from an ancient Greek warship, which has been sleeping on this ridge for at least one or two thousand years.

If I’m not mistaken, it’s probably from the ancient Roman shipwrecks we were looking for, or maybe it was a batch of shipwrecks from ancient Greece. The guy who found this ancient shipwreck treasure made a mistake!

There is also such a possibility. During a certain period of Hellenism, the ancient Greeks and the Roman Empire fought a fierce battle in this sea area, which happened to be located between Italy and Greece. This possibility is very high.

But whether those ancient shipwrecks are from ancient Greece or Rome, I can basically be sure that we are within easy reach of the ancient shipwreck treasure we are looking for, maybe those treasures are right in front of us.

We searched three ridges and took huge risks to dive into the seabed again and again. Fortunately, our efforts were not in vain, and we finally found this sunken treasure. Guys, we can celebrate in advance! "

Before the words were over, the two small aurora submarines located deep in the bottom of the sea and the ships of the exploration fleet on the sea suddenly boiled.

"Awesome! Finally found this ancient Roman shipwreck treasure, maybe it should be the ancient Greek shipwreck treasure"

"I don't know what treasures are in this sunken treasure? Are they sculptures from ancient Greece or the Hellenistic period, or a large number of dazzling gold and silver treasures, or other antique works of art?"

As everyone cheered, the three-dimensional scanned image of the ancient Greek war dolphins had appeared on the live broadcast and appeared in front of countless people.

Those experts and scholars who followed the exploratory fleet reached an accurate identification conclusion in a blink of an eye.

"Yes, this is the ancient Greek war dolphin. It is exactly the same as the war dolphin in the National Archaeological Museum of Greece, and the size is about the same! The guy Steven identified very accurately."

"Wow! I have to say that this guy Steven is so lucky that he actually found this ancient shipwreck treasure. God has once again looked after this lucky guy!"

After a few words with excitement, some people could not wait to pick up the walkie-talkie and prepare to contact Ye Tian in the depths of the ocean.

At this time, Ye Tian had taken seven small aurora submarines to the side of the ancient Greek war dolphins, and was admiring this small coral reef through the fully transparent glass cockpit.

Suddenly, Jason's voice came from the radio communication device.

"Steven, the curator of the National Archaeological Museum of Greece, Maria, and representatives of the Greek Ministry of Culture, as well as several other experts and scholars, have put forward requests, hoping to participate in the next exploration.

At the same time, Maria and the others made a request, hoping that you can protect this submarine archaeological site and not easily destroy it. If possible, it is better to explore jointly with the Greek government."

Hearing this Ye Tian's eyes immediately flashed a sneer of disdain.

"Jason, you tell Maria and them that now they have only found an ancient Greek war dolphin, and there are no more discoveries yet, and it is not time for them to participate in the exploration.

After we have searched this area and determined the exact location of the sunken treasure and what is in the treasure, after completing the initial survey, we will find the opportunity to take them into the sea to have a look.

As for cooperating with the Greek government, it is impossible. We took huge risks and worked hard to find the treasure. The Greeks want to pick peaches at this time. Are they dreaming? "

When he said this, Ye Tian was not polite and didn't mean to avoid any taboos. He said it in front of the live camera lens, and everyone in the world could hear it very clearly.

Before the words fell, the expressions of the Greek experts, scholars and senior government officials on the sea changed instantly and became extremely ugly.

But in Greece, one after another angry curses suddenly sounded, almost throughout Greece!
