There was a blaring noise in the basement, and Ian and the others were holding hand-held electric drills and were tearing down the stone wall of the basement facing the atrium garden.

Ye Tian and David, as well as the Bishop of Kent, stood a little later, instructing and supervising the demolition work while chatting.

"After the failure of the last Crusade, the power and authority of the Holy See has been so bad that it was coerced by King Philip IV of France and moved to Avignon, France, as a resident.

Since then, the Pope of Rome has been under the control of the King of France for more than 70 years, known as the "Prisoner of Avignon" in history. This incident marked the decline of the Holy See and was under the control of the secular state.

In the middle and late fourteenth century, due to a series of failures in the Hundred Years' War between France and Britain, France was unable to take care of the Holy See in Avignon. The then Pope took this opportunity to move the Holy See back to Rome.

Over the next 100 years, the Vatican’s residence changed many times, moving back and forth between Rome and Avignon several times. During this period, the Vatican also split. It was a great split that lasted forty years.

France certainly supports the Holy See in Avignon, while French rival countries, such as the United Kingdom, support the Holy See in Rome. These countries have different popes for their own interests.

At that time, there were even three popes in office at the same time. One of the popes was a notorious pirate leader. He said bluntly that the pope at that time had become a doll of secular politics.

It was not until the middle of the fifteenth century that the Holy See was finally unified again, but the prestige and power of the Holy See were no longer in the past. Even the famous religious jurisdiction, the Holy See was gradually lost.

At the same time, with the rise of the Renaissance, coupled with the decline of the Holy See, other European political cultures began to glow with vigor, and Europe gradually gave birth to a nation-state in the true sense.

The Holy See, which has just experienced turbulence for one or two centuries, has regained its footing in Rome. It is very necessary to build some secret rooms to hide some important secrets or treasures, so as not to repeat the tragedy.

It is for these reasons that there are secrets or treasures hidden behind this stone wall, and the person who hides them is naturally the Holy See. They just don’t know what these secrets or treasures are? "

Standing in the center of the basement, Ye Tian was talking freely, introducing the history more than five hundred years ago.

In the process, he used words as tact as possible so as not to be embarrassed by the bishop of Kent who was also there.

In fact, the Holy See at that time has been completely reduced to a puppet of several European powers, and the situation is very difficult.

Hearing what he said, everyone at the scene nodded and did not disagree, as did the Bishop of Kent, who looked a little embarrassed.

While talking, the harsh electrical noise at the scene suddenly stopped.

Immediately afterwards, Ian's excited voice came.

"Steven, here is a thick granite stone, buried horizontally in this stone wall, supporting the stones, the ground, and the building. It seems that this is the entrance."

Hearing this, Ye Tian stopped talking immediately and looked at the wall, as did everyone else on the scene.

At this time, several pieces of granite in the demarcated area on the stone wall had been pried off by Ian and the others, and placed on the floor.

And inside that wall, about 1.5 meters high from the floor, there is a granite stone with a thickness of about 30 to 40 cm and a length of about 1 meter, which lays across the wall.

This is only the visually visible length. The two ends of the granite rock are buried in the walls on both sides. The specific length is not very clear.

The moment he saw the granite streak, Ye Tian's face showed a pleasant surprise, and he walked quickly to the stone wall.

When he came to the stone wall, he first pretended to carefully check the condition of the stone wall and the granite bar, then smiled and said:

"Good job, guys, this granite rock was obviously buried here deliberately. It is not of the same age as the surrounding stones, and the texture is different.

According to my judgment, this granite rock was buried here at the beginning of the 16th century. Its function is clear at a glance, it is to support the walls and ground structures above.

Below this granite rock, there should be a stone gate. As long as you pull off the outside stones, you can probably see an ancient stone gate and reveal the secrets hidden here."

After listening to Ye Tian's analysis, there was a burst of cheers on the scene. Everyone was very excited and immediately cheered and celebrated.

"Awesome! There really is a treasure hidden here, I hope this is a huge surprise!"

"I don't know what is hidden behind this stone gate, it is really exciting!"

After a brief celebration, Ye Tian said again:

"This upcoming stone gate has been closed for more than five hundred years. It may accumulate a lot of dirty or even toxic gas. For safety reasons, it is best for everyone to wear protective clothing and gas masks to prevent accidents."

Following his remarks, everyone immediately took action and put on protective equipment.

Immediately afterwards, Ian and the others moved again to dig.

Ye Tian stood by and gave guidance, ready to help at any time to avoid any accidents.

As time went by, large and small stones were picked up by Ian and the others one after another from this stone wall, piled on the ground one by one, and quickly piled up into a hill.

At the same time, a large hole about 1.5 meters high and 1.2 meters wide appeared on this stone wall.

And inside this big hole a stone gate covered with mud and mottled gradually emerged and appeared in front of everyone.

Although the stone gate is covered with mud, everyone can still see the general situation of the stone gate clearly.

Just above this round arched stone door, there is a huge crucifixion cross carved with the stone door on the left and right sides, respectively carved with the designs of the archangel Michael and Gabriel.

The two archangels held a long sword and a cross, respectively, flying in the air, seeming to guard the stone gate, and there were some flying little angels around the two archangels.

And at the bottom of the stone gate, there are some pictures of hell. Those who are suffering in **** are looking up at the sky, seeming to pray for God's forgiveness and mercy!

In addition, on and around this stone gate, there are many exquisite patterns and patterns, as well as some characters.

Because the stone door is covered with earth, the details of the ornamentation and patterns are not clear for the time being, including those in Latin.

Unsurprisingly, the moment I saw this stone gate, there was a burst of excited cheers again. Everyone in this basement had excited eyes shining brightly.

"Oh my God! This stone gate is really shocking. If nothing else, this stone gate alone is a top-notch antique cultural relic of great value and significance."

"Wow! The specifications of this stone gate are too high. The secrets or treasures hidden behind this stone gate must be no small thing, maybe it is another great discovery that has caused a sensation in the world."

Just as everyone was talking about it, Ian and the others had removed all the stones laid outside the stone gate and laid them on the ground one by one.

After that, Ye Tian told them to step aside, walked forward, and began to check the situation of the stone gate.
