Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 3212 Ninety-eight K on the top of the mountain

Latest website: Everyone stood on the top of the mountain and admired the scenery in the desert for a while before starting to explore.

The ruins on the top of the mountain now only have some low stone walls, the highest is only about one meter, and most of the rest are buried under the yellow sand.

It is currently unknown how many ruins are buried under the sand. Only by digging up the sand can we know the truth.

Perhaps it’s because it’s close to the sea and on the edge of the Sahara Desert, and the wind blowing from both directions is very strong.

The yellow sand that is carried by the wind from the Sahara Desert and then falls on the top of this hill will soon be taken away by the sea breeze blowing from the Atlantic Ocean and sent back to the Sahara Desert.

Thousands of years of repeated events have not allowed the yellow sand to completely bury this hill.

Because of this, the ruins on the top of the mountain have been preserved to this day.

The yellow sand covering the top of the mountain is not as thick as the desert below, and the patterns blown by the wind on its surface are also very different from the sand dunes in the desert, and have a unique beauty.

After the exploration began, everyone dispersed into groups and began to inspect the ruins.

At the same time, Jason led an exploration team with a pulse metal detector and a portable deep ground-penetrating radar to detect various parts of the mountain top.

In just a moment, they had already discovered something.

Ye Tian had just squatted down and was inspecting the remains of an ancient building component when a pleasant chirping sound suddenly came from not far away.

That was the chirp of a pulse metal detector, and it sounded like the sound of nature.

Without exception, everyone on the top of the mountain turned to look at the place where the sound came from.

The next moment, Jason's excited voice also came over.

"Steven, we scanned several metal objects buried underground, less than two meters above the ground. I don't know what they are. Do you want to come over and take a look?"

Before he finished speaking, Ye Tian had already walked over there.

Professor Yahya and Paul, who were also on the top of the mountain, were faster than him, and they were all impatient.

In the blink of an eye, everyone has arrived at the exploration team led by Jason.

Seeing everyone coming, Jason immediately scanned the ground again with the probe coil of the pulse metal detector.

Following his movements, the sweet chirping sound suddenly sounded again.

Ye Tian immediately stepped forward and checked the detection data on the pulse metal detector, and then looked at the situation on the ground.

Then, he fell into deep thought.

Yahya, who was standing aside, couldn't wait any longer.

"Steven, what exactly are these metal objects? Are they an unknown treasure?"

Ye Tian looked at him and then shook his head.

"It is unlikely that these metal objects are treasures. There are only three or four of them, and they are buried relatively shallowly and scattered. Judging from the distribution of metal signals, they may be several long weapons.

Of course, this is just my preliminary judgment, and it is not certain whether it is accurate. If you want an accurate answer, you can do it yourself and dig out these metal objects to take a look.

Fortunately, these metal objects are not buried deeply, and the soil here is relatively soft. Excavation is not difficult. It is estimated that it will not take long to dig them out from the ground."

After hearing his words, everyone was somewhat disappointed.

Since it's not a treasure, there's no need to surround it here anymore.

Everyone then dispersed to explore different locations.

Yahya did not leave. He looked at the ground where metal objects were scanned.

Immediately afterwards, he said to Ye Tian who was about to leave:

"Steven, I plan to have these metal objects dug out to see what they are. Maybe I can get a little surprise."

Ye Tian looked at the senior Moroccan official, then nodded and said:

"Of course, no problem, Yahya, of course you can dig out these metal objects, but be careful to prevent accidents.

These metal objects may be ancient weapons, but they may also be weapons buried during World War II, which was a battlefield here.

More importantly, the location of this hill is very important. Anyone who wants to defend Casablanca will definitely set up a defensive position here.

Under such circumstances, it should be a normal thing to find weapons and ammunition from the Second World War here. You must be mentally prepared for this."

"ah!"

Yahya exclaimed and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Then, he nodded and said:

"Thank you for the reminder, Steven, we will be careful. Whether these metal objects are ancient weapons or weapons buried during World War II, we are ready to excavate!"

"Well, I wish you good luck and I hope you can get a surprise."

Ye Tian said with a smile.

After chatting for a few more words, he turned around and left.

After he left, Yahya immediately called a Moroccan archaeologist and three exploration team members to begin exploring and analyzing the situation here, and then started excavation.

In fact, there is no need to explore here at all. There is only sand on the ground and there are no ruins. There is no need to worry about causing any damage.

Yahya and the others briefly checked the situation and then started digging.

On the other side, Ye Tian and Professor Paul were studying several ancient Greek letters carved on a stone.

Because they are so old, these ancient Greek letters are very blurry, and the middle letters are simply indistinguishable and cannot be distinguished.

As a result, these letters cannot be connected in series, and we can only guess based on the first and last few letters. The accuracy can be imagined.

But one thing is for sure!

The discovery of these ancient Greek letters shows that the ancient building that once existed here should have been built when ancient Rome ruled this land, and it has a very long history.

The official languages ​​used in ancient Rome included not only ancient Latin but also ancient Greek.

Especially among the upper class society of ancient Rome, ancient Greek was more popular and was a symbol of noble status.

Not only in ancient Rome, but also in the upper classes of countries around the Mediterranean at that time, ancient Greek was more popular.

After carefully studying these ancient Greek letters and thinking for a moment, Professor Paul said:

"Stephen, these ancient Greek letters are the same as the first few letters of Cronus's name. Unfortunately, the middle letters cannot be identified, so we can't be completely sure.

Cronus was the second-generation god-king in ancient Greek mythology and the youngest of the twelve Titans. One of his sons with Queen Rhea was Poseidon, the god of the sea.

If it can be determined that the name engraved on this stone is Cronus's name, then it is basically certain that this long-collapsed temple is a Poseidon Temple.

These words carved on the stone should tell the story of the life of the sea god Poseidon, and what is written on this stone is the origin of the sea god Poseidon, saying that he is the son of the god king! "

Ye Tian looked at the ancient Greek letters carved on the stone, then nodded and said:

“This is indeed a small discovery, but to conclude that these are the ruins of Poseidon Temple, we need some stronger evidence to confirm this.

If other stones can be found that record the life of Poseidon, or stones related to it, such as stones with the names of Rhea or Zeus.

By combining all the findings and linking all the clues for analysis, we may be able to determine whether this ruins is the temple of Poseidon, the god of the sea."

Professor Paul nodded and then continued:

"Yes, we cannot draw a convincing conclusion based on just a few incomplete ancient Greek letters on this stone. I hope we can find other more powerful evidence in the future."

Next, the two of them studied the stone for a while, then put it aside and looked at the half-broken stone wall next to it.

During the subsequent exploration process, they successively discovered several ancient Greek letters, some ancient Greek and Roman style architectural fragments, and so on.

Of course, there are also many traces and graffiti left by later generations.

Among them are Berber, ancient Arabic, Portuguese and Spanish, as well as French, German and English, to name a few.

There is even a line of Chinese graffiti, which is a girl's name, followed by a heart and an arrow passing through the heart. The meaning is very clear.

Unfortunately, in those ancient texts and patterns, they did not find any information related to Poseidon, nor did they find any clues pointing to Atlantis.

During this time, others also made some discoveries.

Several exploration teams found several metal objects buried at different depths in different places on the hills.

But those metal objects were scattered everywhere and had nothing to do with the treasure. Two of the metal objects looked more like burial objects.

After checking the corresponding detection data, Ye Tian quickly came to a conclusion.

These metal objects buried underground are neither treasures nor have anything to do with the legendary Atlantis, so they have no excavation value.

In addition, Jason and the others used portable deep ground-penetrating radar to discover several burial chambers and a cave inside the mountain.

There are no surprising discoveries in these places.

As for the cave inside the mountain, it is a naturally formed cave. It is very deep and completely closed, and there are no hidden treasures inside.

In the ruins on the top of the mountain, Professor Kane and Professor Douglas also found some stones engraved with ancient characters and patterns, as well as architectural fragments.

After some research and analysis, those ancient characters and patterns did not bring any surprises.

Many of the words and patterns are blurred and cannot be distinguished. Even if there are any secrets hidden in them, they cannot be deciphered now. .

Those architectural fragments can only prove that there was an ancient Roman style building here.

In a blink of an eye, the time has come to around one o'clock.

Ye Tian and Professor Paul have arrived halfway up the mountain and are checking and analyzing the detection data from a pulse metal detector.

An exploration team responsible for exploring this area just scanned some metal signals here, so they came to check.

Unfortunately, these metal objects buried in the ground are not treasures, but some shell fragments.

The first time he arrived here, Ye Tian used his clairvoyance power to see clearly.

However, he still pretended to observe and analyze carefully, and then gave the answer that these metal objects were not treasures and had no value for excavation.

Just as he was giving his conclusion, Yahya's voice suddenly came from the intercom.

"Steven, we have dug out the few metal objects buried on the top of the mountain. As a result, our hard work was in vain and we didn't find any treasures."

Ye Tian smiled softly, then picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

"What are those metal objects buried underground? Are they ancient weapons?"

"They are weapons, yes, but they are not ancient weapons, but modern weapons. These are several German-made 98K rifles wrapped in oilcloth and smeared with butter, as well as some matching bullets.

As you said before, these 98K rifles must have been hidden during World War II, but for some reason, the people who buried these guns did not take them away in the end."

Yahya responded, his tone sounding a little frustrated.

"They are actually a few 98K rifles. They sound interesting. Let me go up and take a look."

With that said, Ye Tian walked towards the top of the mountain.

Professor Paul and David also followed.

Everyone has been exploring here for an hour or two, but found nothing.

These rifles from the Second World War may be the only discoveries in this exploration operation, and they also want to see them.

Soon, they arrived at the top of the mountain and met with Yahya and others.

At this time, there were several pits about two meters deep on the ground on the top of the mountain.

At Yahya's feet, there were several German 98K rifles.

The oilcloth that originally wrapped these rifles was now removed.

As Yahya said on the intercom before, these 98K guns are all covered in butter.

In addition to several rifles, dozens of rounds of ammunition were found.

Due to the dry climate here and proper protection, these rifles and bullets are in very good condition.

As long as you find a way to wipe off the butter that has long since solidified, and take good care of it, these rifles should still be able to shoot, just like they did in World War II.

Whether those bullets are still usable is unknown.

Seeing Ye Tian and others coming over, Yahya immediately said in frustration:

"We spent a little effort and got disgraced, but in the end we only dug out a few German 98K rifles and bullets. If we had known this, we shouldn't have excavated just now!"

Ye Tian stepped forward and looked at the 98K rifles, and then said jokingly:

"You should feel lucky that what you dug up this time was a few 98K rifles instead of bombs. Otherwise, you would be in big trouble and might be in danger.

When we were exploring Solomon's Treasure in the Egyptian desert last year, we discovered many landmines laid by the German army during World War II, which could explode at any time."

"hiss!"

There was a gasp of air from the scene, and Yahya and the others were startled.

They quickly recalled the process of digging out these 98K rifles. If these 98K rifles were replaced by landmines, they would have been killed and blown to pieces!

Thinking of this, several Moroccan exploration team members responsible for the excavation were frightened and trembled secretly.

At this time, Ye Tian had squatted down and began to look at the 98K rifles.

While inspecting it, he was also introducing this rifle.

“Although these 98K rifles have a history of more than 70 years, they are very well preserved and can be regarded as antique firearms with certain collection value.

These rifles should be able to be used normally. They are still very popular in the eyes of gun enthusiasts. From this point of view, it cannot be said that nothing has been gained! "

With that said, Ye Tian took out a pair of gloves and put them on, then picked up a 98K rifle and started playing with it.

"Click"

He pulled the bolt of the gun and looked inside the chamber.

The barrel of the gun is also covered with butter and is well protected.

Immediately afterwards, he picked up the gun and took a look into the distance, and then looked at the inscription engraved on the gun body, his eyes filled with affection.

Although he liked them, he had no intention of collecting these 98K rifles.

In fact, he already had a German 98K rifle in the gun storage at his home in New York, and there was more than one.

Each of his 98K guns is perfect, far surpassing these old guns.

While he was admiring these rifles, Professor Kane's voice suddenly came over the walkie-talkie, which sounded quite exciting.

"Steven, come and take a look at the north side of the hill. We found the remains of a very important building component here. It may provide some valuable clues."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tian immediately put down the 98K in his hand and took off his gloves.

Then, he picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

"Copy that, Professor Kane, we'll be there right away. I hope it's a nice surprise."

With that said, he walked towards the north side of the hill.

Professor Paul and the others immediately followed, all looking forward to it.
