Ye Tianqing's voice kept coming out and reaching everyone's ears.

"As we all know, in 323 BC, after the death of Alexander the Great, Greek history officially entered the Hellenistic era, and Greece was divided into a dozen city-states, large and small, all of which were called Hellenistic states.

What followed was decades of warfare, in which Alexander the Great's generals ruled over a number of Hellenistic city-states, fighting each other and greatly weakening Greece's military power.

With the decline of Greek military power, in 299 BC, Roman forces began to invade the Balkans, and by around 168 BC, the Romans conquered all of Greece and became the de facto rulers of Greece.

Then, in 30 BC, the Roman Empire eliminated the last Hellenistic state, the Ptolemaic dynasty that ruled Egypt, and the Hellenistic era came to an abrupt end, and the history of ancient Greece came to an abrupt end.

In fact, the influence of Hellenism lasted for more than 600 years, and it is well known that the Roman Empire inherited Greek culture in its entirety, and the official languages of the Roman Empire were Latin and Greek."

Listening to Ye Tian's explanation, many people nodded their heads and had no different opinions, this is a well-known history, there is no doubt about it!

The expressions of the Greeks were very complicated, even a little depressed, and as the descendants of the conquered, they could not be happy to hear people mention this history.

After a pause, Ye Tian continued:

"After the conquest of the Roman Empire, Greece enjoyed an unprecedented period of peace, and prosperity in all aspects of its socio-economic life, although the whole territory became Roman territory.

In the eyes of many Greeks at the time, it was the Romans who put an end to the chaos and turmoil of the Hellenistic era, and the rule of the Romans brought peace, and Greek culture, in turn, conquered the lives of the Romans.

History has spoken highly of the reverse conquest of the Roman Empire by Greek culture, and even praised it, but cultural conquest has never been achieved overnight, and it is often accompanied by bloodshed.

The treasure of this ancient shipwreck in front of me is probably one of the very powerful proofs, and the story I am going to tell next is completely out of my speculation, if you are interested, you can listen to it."

Hearing this, people can't help but be fascinated, and one by one they are looking forward to this wonderful story.

Even those experts and scholars on the sea, as well as countless historians, archaeologists, and other professionals on the live broadcast end, were deeply attracted by Ye Tian's words, and their expressions gradually became serious.

Without the slightest interruption, Ye Tian's voice still kept coming out, clearly reaching the ears of countless people.

"The Romans coveted the splendid civilization, the fine sculptures and other antique works of art, and the vast wealth of the ancient Greece before they conquered it completely.

They looted many of the famous sculptures in the occupied area, as well as important antiques and treasures representing ancient Greek civilization, and loaded them onto a huge fleet of ships to be shipped back to Rome.

But how could the Greeks allow this to happen, and how could they have watched the best achievements of ancient Greek civilization looted by the Romans, some of whom fought against it.

They sent a heavily armed fleet in pursuit, and finally caught up with the huge fleet in the Ionian Sea, between Italy and Greece, where the shipwreck treasure was located.

Then the matter was simple, the Greek fleet that had been chasing all the way fought with the Roman warships escorting this fleet, and a shocking naval battle broke out, and the outcome of the naval battle was likely to be a defeat for both sides.

Most of the ships laden with cargo sank to the bottom of the sea, and most of the main forces of the warring sides, the Greek warships and the Roman warships escorting them, also sank, and there were only a few ships that escaped from this sea."

Hearing this, many people were dumbfounded, and they looked at the live broadcast screen and Ye Tian who was talking eloquently one by one, their eyes full of incredulity.

Can history be interpreted in this way? Steven is too good at talking, who has ever heard of such an earth-shattering naval battle?

However, these words sounded very reasonable from the mouth of this guy Steven, and even if he wanted to refute it, he couldn't find an entry point for a while.

If not, how can this great shipwreck treasure in the Ionian Sea be explained, and how did they come about?

The story is not over yet, Ye Tian is still telling it vividly.

"This explains why the wrecks of the few shipwrecks we have just found are Roman ships, Greek ships, and cargo ships, and each ship is scarred.

If my speculation is true, it also provides evidence for the solution of another extremely important historical mystery: why did many famous sculptures of ancient Greece and the Hellenistic period suddenly disappear?

Most of those famous sculptures disappeared during the Hellenistic period, and those that appeared in Rome later were basically copies, such as the statues of the triumvirate of ancient Greek philosophy, but the originals are missing!

In fact, these priceless and famous sculptures have sunk to the bottom of the sea, sleeping in the dark for more than 2,000 years, and we have found only some of them, and there may be more in the nearby deep sea!"

Before the words fell, the outside world had completely fried the pot, and almost everyone hugged their heads and exclaimed.

"Oh my God! Steven is too daring to think about it, and if his speculation is true, then there is no doubt that this is the greatest archaeological discovery ever made in the Western world!"

"Could it be that there are more ancient shipwrecks in this sea, and more famous sculptures from the Greek and Hellenistic periods, and other antique works of art?

Compared with ordinary people, many experts and scholars are even more crazy.

They all stood up as if they were electrocuted, first staring at the live broadcast screen with round eyes, their eyes were about to fly out, and their eyes were full of shock.

When they came back to their senses, they were like ants on a hot pot, and they began to walk back and forth non-stop, still muttering words in their mouths.

At this time, they couldn't wait to have their wings on their shoulders, fly directly to the Ionian Sea, and then dive deep into the depths of the sea to participate in the exploration and salvage of this shipwreck treasure.

Perhaps the information revealed in Ye Tian's words was too important, and the countries bordering the Mediterranean, which had already taken action, began to increase their weight, and sent many ships to rush to this sea area.

The Greeks, in particular, were eager to send all the official ships of the country out and rush them all here.

When the outside world was boiling, the depths of the ocean where Ye Tian and the others were located were relatively calm.

"Matisse, make a mark next to the wreck of the ancient Roman shipwreck, and continue to explore, trying to find out the general situation of this shipwreck treasure as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

We've been in the depths of the ocean for a long time, and for the sake of safety, we'll have to surface in an hour, whether we've explored this shipwreck treasure or not.

Once you're back on the surface, take a good rest before you go out into the sea to explore or salvage the shipwreck, no matter how important this shipwreck treasure is, safety comes first."

Ye Tian said aloud with a smile and gave instructions for the next step.

As the words fell, Matisse responded immediately.

"Understood, Steven, we know what to do"

Next, the two Aurora small submarines continued to explore forward, and continued to expand the scope of exploration, and also continued to harvest one surprise after another.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of minutes have passed.

During this time, the two Aurora mini-submarines searched a large area and found two shipwrecks, seven or eight sculptures, complete or mutilated, and a large number of antique gold and silver coins and ancient weapons.

In addition, there are some other antique artworks, such as ancient Greek pottery, gold ritual items, stone tablets, jewelry, and more.

While talking, Ye Tian and the seven small Aurora submarines they were riding on came to another beautiful coral reef, ready to explore.

The size of this coral reef is not small, about 10 meters high and about 50 or 60 meters long, and it is very eye-catching with colorful corals and seaweeds on top of this ridge.

Because the metal detector carried by the submarine was always on, as soon as Ye Tian and his seven small submarines arrived here, the sound of metal detectors sounded in everyone's ears, which sounded very moving.

No need to ask, this is another old shipwreck.

It's just that because the age of the sinking is so long, the wreck has long been overgrown with all kinds of coral and seaweed, completely covering up its original appearance.

As for what exactly is hidden inside this wreck, it is not known for the time being, and the answer can only be known after some exploration!

"Steven, it seems that under this beautiful coral reef and seaweed, there is another ancient shipwreck, I don't know what is in this shipwreck, whether it is a master sculpture or other antique artwork!"

Chandler said excitedly, with a strong sour taste in his words.

Ye Tian turned his head to look at this buddy, and then said with a smile:

"The outline of this coral reef looks like a capsized ship from a distance, and sure enough, I hope this ancient shipwreck can bring a huge surprise to everyone, and it would be great!"
