After admiring the small coral reef outside the submarine for a while, Ye Tian retracted his gaze and said via radio:

"Matis, you clean up this ancient Greek war dolphin, then mark it and salvage it later. Be careful when cleaning it up, try not to damage this treasure, it still has a certain value.

After cleaning up, continue to explore forward. Every piece of coral reef that you encounter next, and even every bulging stone on the ridge, cannot be let go. You must explore and take three-dimensional images.

I have a strong hunch that we will soon discover those ancient shipwrecks, discover those ancient Greek or Hellenistic statues, and other antique artworks, which will bring the world a huge surprise."

"No problem, Steven, leave this ancient Greek war dolphin to us, we will be able to clean this baby out soon"

Matisse nodded in response, and the whole person was almost flying with excitement.

Next, Ye Tian told Matisse and the others a few more words, and then took the seven Aurora small submarine to the side and returned to the previous position.

Just back here, Ye Tian immediately turned his head and whispered to Chandler:

"Chandler, you cut the live broadcast to the other side of the cleanup operation, and turned off the live microphone. I have some things to make arrangements, and they need to be strictly confidential."

Hearing this, Chandler was stunned for a moment, then nodded lightly, did not ask much, and naturally could not refuse.

He knows very well that it is unnecessary to ask, so why bother to do it multiple times.

In a blink of an eye, the live TV screen of the National Geographic Channel has been switched, and the live microphone in the seven-seater Aurora submarine has also been turned off.

Then, Ye Tian said through the invisible wireless headset:

"Jason, you immediately contact the U.S. Embassy in Greece and the U.S. Embassy in Italy and ask them to come forward to help us coordinate relations with the two countries and prevent these two countries from playing tricks.

Walker, inform all the guys to raise the alert level to the highest level. In front of us floating in the sea, we will never allow any ships to break into the operating area and say hello to the Bataan amphibious assault ship."

"Understood, Steven"

The voices of Jason and Walker came one after another, and both were very excited.

At this time, Chandler and his photographer were all dumbfounded, and their eyes were almost out of their eyes!

This cunning guy, Steven, has so many backs and has a relationship with the US Navy amphibious assault ship cruising in the Mediterranean. It's an exaggeration!

Those guys who had the idea of ​​this sunken ship treasure, it is too late to withdraw now, otherwise there will be no burial place, and Steven will be pitted to death in this sea area alive!

Ye Tian turned to look at Chandler and them, then turned back and smiled and said:

"Guys, let's get started. The ancient sunken ships that have slept on this seabed for a year or two are waiting for us somewhere ahead!"

When the voice fell, the small submarine began to move, and the live broadcast of the National Geographic Channel was quickly cut back.

The exploration continues and everything is business as usual.

Ye Tian and the others drove the submarine and began to explore little by little, and the small submarine that Matisse was riding in was cleaning up the various corals on the ancient Greek war dolphin.

At this time, countless scorching eyes gathered on this sea area and on the two small submarines that were exploring the seabed.

Not surprisingly, there are a lot of envy, even jealous eyes, mostly from the field of antique art collection, and the field of history and archaeology!

Greece, in particular, has shaken the country at this time, and almost everyone is paying attention to the exploration and salvage of the ancient Roman shipwreck treasure.

As a matter of course, the tremendous pressure from all walks of life in Greek society has been surging and weighed heavily on the Greek government authorities.

It didn't take long for Matisse and the others to complete the initial cleanup.

A rusty ancient Greek war dolphin appeared in front of the world for the first time after one or two thousand years.

When this ancient Greek war dolphin appeared on the live broadcast screen, many professionals in front of the live broadcaster suddenly boiled again.

Especially the experts and scholars in the exploratory fleet, where can they still be seated, they flocked to the stern of the yacht, trying to take the speedboat to the Brave Intrepid to participate in this exploratory operation.

However, before receiving Ye Tian's order, the brave man fearlessly explored how the company's employees and security personnel could cooperate with them.

After fighting **** the grounds, nothing was achieved.

These experts and scholars can only return to the living room angrily, continue to watch the live TV, and point to Ye Tian on the live screen and yell at them, but they are helpless!

After Matisse and the others, Ye Tian and the others quickly found out.

"Steven, judging from the three-dimensional scanned image, there should be a statue hidden under this beautiful coral. This statue does not look small."

Waiters pointed to a coral reef outside the submarine and said, excitedly.

On the LCD screens inside the submarine, it is the three-dimensional scan image of the coral reef that basically outlines the outline of the sculpture accurately.

This is a sculpture of a figure about 1.5 meters high. The reason why it is said to be a figure sculpture is because the outline of the head is clearly identifiable, and the head of the statue is screwed to the left, and the neck seems to be very hard.

Down the neck, there are broad shoulders like a mountain and two thick arms. Only from the three-dimensional image, you can see the strength of the carved figures.

Looking down again, the statue figure's body was leaning on its side, with force at the waist, as if he was firmly holding a huge head with his left arm, naturally bringing out a fierce murderous intent in the action.

Because of his movement, his arms, back and buttocks showed a very peculiar shape, giving people a sense of tension with blood swelling.

The huge head firmly held by the statue figure looked like a beast, huge in size and powerful.

It seems to be struggling hard, trying to break free from the opponent's restraint, and there seems to be a breath of fear and despair in its actions.

Further down, there is nothing left, and it stops abruptly.

Ye Tian looked at the three-dimensional scan image on the LCD screen carefully, then smiled and nodded and said:

"Your judgment is correct, Waiters. Under that beautiful coral reef, there is indeed an ancient statue. God knows how many years have been sleeping deep in this dark seabed.

To be precise, it should be the upper part of an ancient statue. It is still intact. Perhaps it fell out of the ship when it was about to fall onto this ridge.

If this is the case, then there is no doubt that the ancient Roman or ancient Greek ship that transported the statue, as well as the lower half of the statue, are likely to be nearby and it is not difficult to find"

Hearing this, Charlie and Waiters immediately glanced around the submarine, and their eyes were extremely bright, and their eyes were full of expectation.

Chandler and the photographer, who were in the cockpit of the submarine, did the same, and quickly scanned the surroundings.

It is a pity that they do not have a pair of eyes that can see everything and penetrate the darkness.

Except for those happy killer whales, endless seas and darkness, and large swaths of colorful coral reefs and seaweeds, they didn't have any surprises!

Ye Tian smiled softly, and then continued:

"Of course there is another possibility. The ancient shipwreck and the lower part of the statue fell into the abyss next to it. In that case, we can only explore with underwater robots!"

As he said, Ye Tian stretched out his hand and pointed at the dark sea on the left of the submarine.

About fifty meters to the left of their small aurora submarine, there is a vast abyss that leads directly to the seabed two to three kilometers deep.

Following the direction of his fingers, everyone looked there, and then withdrew their gazes.

After a short pause, Ye Tianqinglang's voice came out again and reached everyone's ears.

"Judging from the outline and shape of the upper part of this statue, the sculpture should be the Hercules in ancient Greek mythology, Hercules, and the mythical story of him strangling the Nemean lion.

Hercules is the greatest hero in ancient Greek mythology. He is the embodiment of strength, courage and wisdom. There are many sculptures about Hercules, including classic masterpieces.

In ancient Greek mythology, Eurystheus, King of Mycenae, was jealous of Hercules' prominent reputation. To embarrass him, Hercules was assigned a lot of very difficult tasks.

These nearly impossible tasks were completed by Hercules one by one. They were called Hercules' twelve great achievements. The first task was to kill the Nemean Lion.

Nemean lion is a giant lion in ancient Greek mythology. It is said that its fur is gold, and ordinary weapons cannot penetrate it, so it cannot be killed. Its claws are also sharp.

In order to kill the Nemean Lion, Hercules used various weapons, such as bows, arrows and spears, but could not kill the lion. In the end, he strangled the Nemean Lion alive with his hands.

Then, he used the sharp claws of the Nemean lion to cut and peel off the lion's skin, and used the Nemean lion's skin as a shawl, and always put it on his body.

Because the way Hercules killed the Nemean lion is very special, it is not difficult to identify the sculptures related to this ancient Greek mythology."

For Ye Tian's analysis, those experts and scholars on the sea, as well as many antique art appraisal experts, sculptors, historians, and archaeologists on the live broadcast, all agree very much.

They all saw the three-dimensional scanned image of the statue and recognized the content of the statue, which was consistent with what Ye Tian said.

"It's a pity that ~www.novelhall.com~ This statue of Hercules killing the Nemean lion is broken in two, and the lower part is not known where it is. If you can find it, naturally Not bad.

Although I don’t know who is the sculptor who created this statue of Hercules, I am sure that the origin of this statue of Hercules must be very different, otherwise it will not appear here.

Regardless of the ancient Romans or the ancient Greeks, it is unusual in itself to transport such a heavy statue to the Ionian Sea far away from the mainland at the expense of huge costs and manpower and material resources.

This is enough to show that this sculpture of "Hercules Kills the Lion of Nemean" must be of extraordinary origin and great value. It may be the work of a top sculptor."

Ye Tian continued to introduce this ancient sculpture that hasn't revealed its true face, but what he said was eloquent, and everyone was convinced.

Above the sea, the discovery of this suspected ancient Greek statue has caused a huge sensation.

Especially in Greece, the whole country is as lively as a pot!
