Chapter 1846: Drifting Away
"Steven, the Cypriot police and the UN peacekeepers have replaced our security personnel and are already engaged in fire with the Turks, who are fighting and retreating.
The gate of this medieval castle was completely blocked by us with fire trucks, and no one would want to drive into this castle without removing the fire from the inside of the castle!
The guys who were stopped outside the castle are now looking for a place to hide, and the guys have all withdrawn into the castle, and anyone who tries to break in will be exposed to our guns.
The three medium helicopters that have been stationed in Larnaca have just taken off and will soon arrive here to provide air support and pick us up.
From the Larnaca airport, the news came that the chartered plane from Rome had landed, and a large number of support personnel sent by the Vatican were driving here, twenty minutes at most!
There is also news from the British sovereign military base, several military helicopters have just taken off from the military base, and more than a dozen special forces carrying loaded guns and ammunition are flying here!"
Cole's voice came from the walkie-talkie again, informing Ye Tian of the outside situation.
After listening to the report, Ye Tian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said in a deep voice:
"Roger, Cole, just keep an eye on the outside, don't let anyone break into the castle, even if the Vatican support arrives, don't let them into the castle, let them guard the perimeter.
It was agreed in the agreement to negotiate with the Cypriots and the UN peacekeepers, as well as the British, and the Martyrs' Retreats, and for the Vatican to intervene.
Our exploration here continues, and it will be completed soon, and then we will transport all the treasures stored deep underground to the surface and get out of here!"
"Understand, Steven, leave the matter on the ground to us, and there will be no problems!"
Cole replied in a deep voice, and ended the call.
As soon as his words fell, David suddenly walked to Ye Tian's side, lowered his voice and said:
"Steven, the Vatican's armed support and the British are about to arrive here, should you leave?
Ye Tian didn't respond immediately, but quickly glanced at the situation in the hall, then nodded with a smile and said:
"The things stored by the Knights Templar in this underground chamber have basically been cleaned up, I believe there will be no more major discoveries that will sensational the world, and it is indeed time to leave!"
"What do you mean? Steven, are you going to leave alone?
The Bishop of Kent, who was standing next to him, suddenly interjected and asked, with a stunned expression, and even a little doubtful that his ears were hallucinating!
Ye Tian turned his head to look at him, then nodded lightly and said:
"You heard me right, Bishop Kent, I really want to leave here alone, you can do the rest, I believe everything will go very well, and when we meet again, it should be in the Vatican!"
Hearing this, the Bishop of Kent immediately continued:
"Why? Steven, are you afraid that our Vatican will be bad for you, so you plan to leave alone, just in case, if this is the case, then it is not necessary, we will never be treacherous!"
"Fool the devil! Is the Vatican still doing less treacherous things? There are countless in history! The Knights Templar is a bloody example of the past!"
Ye Tian secretly complained a few words, and a trace of contempt quickly flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Of course, these are only the words of his heart, and it is impossible to resort to words.
What came out of his mouth was another high-sounding statement.
"Bishop Kent, you think too much, the reason why I want to leave alone is not because I don't trust you Vatican Holy See, but because I want to guard against the British and Cypriots who are about to arrive here.
Needless to say, Cypriots are their territory, and in the face of such an immeasurable treasure, it is a personal madness, how can a Cypriot not be blushed?
Although the Vatican and the Cypriot government have reached an agreement in advance, no one can guarantee that the Cypriot government authorities will not tear up the agreement and forcibly leave these priceless treasures!
As for the British, I have a deep relationship with those guys, and we have fought a few times in New York and London before, and it is the Brits who have suffered, and it is hard to guarantee that those guys will not retaliate.
Like the Cypriots, the British could not ignore this great fortune, and it was only natural for me to be blushing, and it would be good for both of us that I left quietly alone.
As long as I'm not here, and I'm not in the same place as this treasure, then no matter what kind of immortal the other party is, when fighting the idea of this treasure, I have to have scruples and must think twice!
By the same token, as long as I can get out of here safely, both this coveted treasure and all the people involved in this expedition will undoubtedly be much safer.
According to the joint exploration agreement, this treasure of the Knights Templar belongs only to both of us, and you Vatican get the two Christian relics, and everything else belongs to our company.
Anything in this treasure that falls into the hands of anyone else but us will face my fierce revenge at all costs, whether it's a Cypriot or an Englishman!"
When he said the last few words, Ye Tian's eyes suddenly turned cold, flashing with a fierce light.
Seeing this scene, the Bishop of Kent couldn't help but shudder to himself.
"Isn't that right? Steven, are you being too careful? Those guys from the British military base, who came to support at the request of the Vatican, probably won't have the idea of attacking this treasure.
And the Vatican has sent fifty more heavily armed members of the Swiss Guard, plus the existing security personnel, the strength is enough to protect these priceless treasures, and the British have no chance!"
Ye Tian shook his head lightly and said categorically:
In this matter, I trust my own judgment and my own strength more, and I have made up my mind that I will soon leave this place alone, and leave Cyprus.
In order to avoid leaking the news, Bishop of Kent, you must hand over the walkie-talkies you carry with you to Jason and David for safekeeping, and even if you want to use them, you must do so under supervision!
When I get out of here safely, I'll send a message to Jason, and they'll give you back the walkie-talkie at that time.
"Well, Steven, you guy is so shrewd, if anyone dares to calculate you, it will definitely be a stupid move to kill yourself!"
Bishop Kent shook his head with a wry smile and said, his eyes full of jealousy.
After saying this, he took down the walkie-talkie he was carrying with him and handed it to David, who was standing next to him.
At the same time, Jason confiscated the walkie-talkies carried by the other two Vatican friars.
Subsequently, Ye Tian handed over his walkie-talkie to David, and continued:
"Bishop Kent, after I'm gone, you will continue to clean up what the Knights Templar have stored here, and Jason and David will have full authority to represent me in the rest of the exploration!
Once you've cleaned up everything and received a message from me, our Dauntless Explorers staff will bring the treasure to the ground.
As for coordinating with all the forces and transporting everything here back to the Vatican, that's what you have to do, and when we meet again, I hope to see all the treasures that belong to our company!"
As soon as the words fell, the Bishop of Kent nodded lightly and said:
"Of course, Steven, we're going to get everything here safely back to the Vatican, not a single thing missing, and when we meet again, you'll be able to take everything that belongs to your company with us.
There are a few things I am very curious about, I hope you can answer, just now you went back to the corridor above, didn't you set up a few more traps, when we leave here, will those traps threaten everyone's safety?
And how do you get out of here without a word from the eyes of the many security guards up there, and the guys outside the castle? It's almost impossible to do unless you know something else about stealth!
As for how you left Cyprus and where you're going next, I don't have to ask, you don't have to think about it, we come to this castle, or even to Larnaca, you guys are ready to do it!"
"Don't worry about the traps in the corridor, I'll take Jason up and tell him how to remove those traps, and when you get out of here, there will be no problem passing through those traps safely.
As for how to get out of here and out of Cyprus quietly away from everyone's eyes and ears, let me sell it for a while, and everyone will know the answer later, and that's a nice surprise!"
"Well, Steven, I'm really looking forward to this surprise!"
"It's almost time, let's stop here, when we return to the Vatican, we have time to talk, Jason, let's go to the upper corridor together, and I'll teach you how to remove those traps!"
As he spoke, Ye Tian beckoned to Jason, and then returned to the corridor above with the kid.
In less than five minutes, the two of them were back in the underground hall.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian told all the employees of the company at the scene that he was going to leave alone.
Everyone was not surprised by his decision, nor did they have any objections, and no one thought that Ye Tian was fleeing from the battle and being alone!
This has happened before, and everyone knows very well in their hearts that this is the wisest decision, and only in this way can everyone's safety be maximized.
Next, Ye Tian pulled David and Jason aside, whispered a few more words, made some arrangements, and notified Cole through the wireless invisible headphones.
After arranging everything, he came to the Bishop of Kent again, smiled and said:
"Bishop Kent, today is a perfect day, I hope everything goes well, I'm leaving, we'll see you in the Vatican!"
"Okay, Steven, goodbye Vatican!"
Bishop Kent nodded and shook Ye Tian's hand.
Immediately afterwards, under the curious gaze of everyone at the scene, Ye Tian strode towards the statue of Hugo de Payin standing against the wall.
This marble statue of the founder of the Knights Templar stands in front of the wall on the east side of the hall, and the moss and dust have been cleared of it!
Seeing Ye Tian's actions, everyone at the scene couldn't help but feel very surprised.
But soon everyone reacted, behind the statue, there must be a hidden secret passage, leading to the seaside cliff not far from the east side of the ancient castle!
The oxygen in this underground hall, and the barely perceptible hint of the sea breeze, came from that secret passage.
Apparently, Steven discovered the secret passage when he first entered this place alone, and after entering the secret passage, he knew that the secret passage led to the cliffs by the sea and was safe.
That's why he has the current move, and he is sure that he has successfully avoided the eyes of everyone outside, and left quietly through that secret passage, quickly away from Cyprus!
Thinking of this, everyone at the scene secretly sighed.
Steven is really omnipotent, in such a short period of time, he actually discovered this secret passage, and entered it to explore, how did he do it?
Sure enough!
In between three or two steps, Ye Tian walked to the side of the marble statue of Hugo de Paying, then stopped and pushed away the heavy marble statue.
As he moved, a swarthy hole appeared in front of everyone, right behind the marble statue, perfectly hidden.
"Guys, see you at the Vatican!"
Ye Tian said with a smile and waved his hand to everyone at the scene.
Immediately after, he stepped into the secret passage, walked along the secret passage to the sea, and soon disappeared into the depths of the secret passage.
At the same time, on the Mediterranean Sea not far away, a sleek silver-white luxury yacht also slowly started its engines and was ready to respond!
And not far from the east side of the castle, under the cliff by the sea, in a cave that is half submerged by the sea, a set of black diving equipment is lying quietly on a reef!
