"Wow! It is indeed a sunken ship. From the analysis of the hull outline, it should be a Galenic sailing ship. I hope it is the Malaga Princess treasure ship we are looking for. That would be perfect!"
Ye Tian said excitedly, his eyes were extremely bright and shining.
"Judging from the length and shape of this Galenic sailing ship, it is indeed very possible, but whether it is the Princess of Malaga or not, we have to go and take a look to be sure!"
Matisse’s voice came from the headphones, also very excited.
At this time, they were on the seabed at a depth of 125 meters, staring at a shadow dozens of meters ahead. That was exactly what Raymond and the others had detected using sonar!
Although it was still far away and could not clearly see the specific situation, Ye Tian and the others made an accurate judgment from the first glance of the shadow just based on its outline.
That is 100% a sunken ship, and it is a medium-sized Galenic sailing ship from Spain, there is no doubt about it!
The nearly 50-meter-long hull, the tall ship building at the stern, the four masts of different heights standing on the main deck, etc. are all obvious evidence.
As soon as Matisse finished speaking, Johnny's excited voice came from the earphones.
"Great! Steven, this may be the Malaga Princess treasure ship! It is filled with dazzling gold and silver treasures! Unfortunately, the location of this sunken ship is too deep and we cannot participate Explore action! "
"Don't feel sorry, Johnny, if this sunken ship is indeed the Malaga Princess, you can take a small sightseeing submarine down later and have a closer look!
Even if you want to participate in the subsequent salvage operation and witness the process of the sunken treasure being brought out of the water, it is not impossible, as long as you have plenty of time and the leisure to do so! "
Ye Tian said with a chuckle, while he and Matisse continued to move forward, gradually approaching the shadow.
“This is a great idea! I look forward to witnessing the Malaga Princess that has been sleeping on the seabed for nearly 300 years, and I’m even more looking forward to seeing the moment when the sunken treasures are successfully recovered and shock the world!”
Orlando's voice came from the earphones immediately, extremely excited.
As he spoke, the distance between Ye Tian and the others and the sunken ship in front had narrowed to within 20 meters.
Under the strong light of the propeller searchlight, the external situation of the sunken ship was clearly presented to their eyes, enough for them to make a more accurate judgment.
The sunken ship is located on a flat seabed, very stable, lying quietly on its side at a 45-degree angle, allowing it to be washed away by ocean currents, invaded by time, and gradually decayed and decomposed!
The length of this sunken ship is about 50 meters, which is the standard length of a Galen ship. The ship building located at the stern is three floors high, and there are three floors below the main deck. There are six decks in total. It is a medium-to-large Galen ship sailing ship. !
On the main deck of this galenic ship, there are four masts of different heights. This is the main symbol that distinguishes the Spanish galenic ship from the galenic ships of other countries. It is very obvious!
These alone are enough to prove the judgments Ye Tian and Matisse made before!
Without a doubt! This is a Spanish galleon!
In addition, from the large areas of colorful and different shapes of coral growing outside the hull, it can be seen that this Spanish Galen ship has sunk to the bottom of the sea for a long time, at least two to three hundred years old!
Confirming this, Ye Tian and the others' eyes suddenly became brighter and more excited!
Obviously, the Galen ship sank at the same time as the Malaga Princess.
As for whether this sunken ship is the Malaga Princess treasure ship that everyone is looking for, further exploration is needed to know! I believe the answer will be revealed soon!
Ye Tian and the others were not in a hurry to approach this ancient sunken ship and couldn't wait to verify their conjecture. Instead, they quickly reduced the speed of the propeller engine and stopped!
The two stood on the sandy bottom of the sea ten or twenty meters away, using the searchlight at the front of the propeller to continue observing the sunken ship in order to have a more thorough understanding of its external situation!
It can be seen that this ancient Spanish Galen ship was sunk. As for whether it was the Pirates of the Caribbean or the British Navy that sank it, it is unknown!
The three-story ship building located at the stern of the ship was very seriously damaged. There were holes everywhere on the side of the ship building, and there were also traces of fire. It was devastated!
Three of the masts standing on the main deck were broken, and only half of each remained on the ship. The upper half was long ago thrown away, and only the mast on the bow was still intact!
The right side of the ship, which was close to Ye Tian and the others, also encountered a fierce attack.
The area above the waterline and the sides of the ship are covered with traces of shell bombardment, with holes of varying sizes one after another! Some of the ship's planks were knocked up by solid cannonballs, and the condition was terrible!
In particular, there are several large holes with a diameter of 30 to 50 centimeters near the waterline, which are even more shocking. Perhaps that is the reason why the Galenic sailing ship sank to the bottom of the sea!
In addition to these, Ye Tian and the others also saw many gun emplacements, scattered all over the main deck and the other two decks above the waterline, there were dozens of them!
There are also many ancient cannons from hundreds of years ago. Some are still on the main deck, and some have fallen to the bottom of the sea. They are all severely rusted and have been completely scrapped, with no value at all!
From the distribution and number of gun emplacements, as well as some other characteristics, Ye Tian and the others judged that this was an armed transport ship, not a Spanish warship.
This discovery made Ye Tian and the others even more excited. Perhaps this Galen ship is the main target of this trip to the Caribbean, the Malaga Princess treasure ship!
From where Ye Tian and the others are, they can only see so much!
If you want to truly determine the identity of this Galen ship and find out what the cargo is, you can only get close to investigate, and you even need to enter the cabin to learn more!
When observing the sunken ship, Ye Tian did not turn on the perspective and secretly looked at the situation inside the sunken ship. It was not the time yet, and it would also lose a lot of fun!
The results are important, but the process of exploring the treasure is more interesting and exciting.
It didn't take long for Ye Tian and Matisse to have a basic understanding of the external conditions of the sunken ship.
Obviously, this shipwreck has been a surprising discovery so far!
As for the degree of surprise, it depends on the contents of the sunken ship. Is the cabin filled with dazzling gold and silver treasures, and how much is the quantity? How much is it worth?
These questions can only be known by continuing to investigate.
Ye Tian redirected the diving thruster forward and said with a chuckle through his earphones:
“Guys, I can tell you with great certainty that this is a Galenic sailing ship, and it is a Spanish armed transport ship. It must have sunk to the bottom of the sea for two to three hundred years.
Although I don’t know the identity of this sunken ship yet, I have a hunch! Perhaps we have found the most important goal of this Caribbean trip, the Malaga Princess treasure ship! "
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of extremely excited cheers came from the earphones.
"Great! Steven, I hope your hunch is accurate. That sunken ship is the Malaga Princess treasure ship. That would be perfect!"
“Discovering a treasure from a shipwreck nearly three hundred years ago on the bottom of the Caribbean Sea! Oh my God! What a wonderful thing this is, so incredible, it’s like a dream!
Stephen, hurry up and enter the sunken ship to find out its true identity. We look forward to your good news. We are even more looking forward to seeing those dazzling gold and silver treasures with our own eyes! "
Listening to the excited cheers in the headphones, bright smiles bloomed on the faces of Ye Tian and Matisse.
"Hahaha, these guys obviously can't wait! Okay! Let's set off! Mattis, go see what treasures are in this sunken ship!"
With that said, Ye Tian started the diving thruster and swam quickly towards the sunken ship not far ahead!
"Okay! Steven, let's discover the sunken treasure together! I love this treasure hunt so much, and I love those dazzling gold and silver treasures even more!"
Mattis smiled excitedly and drove the diving thruster to follow.
