Chapter 1755: The Secret of Ancient Rome

When I came out of the Colosseum, it was about six o'clock in the afternoon, and there was still more than an hour before sunset.

In other words, if you want to enjoy the beautiful night view of the Colosseum and enjoy the stunning light show of Rome, you will have to wait more than an hour to do so.

Rome is an ancient city full of ruins, and if you walk around the city, you will come across one historical site after another, and it may be a famous ancient Roman ruin.

Being in Rome, Ye Tian naturally wouldn't waste such an opportunity, waiting for night to fall here, and then enjoying the charming night view of the Colosseum.

After some deliberation, the decision was made to walk to the nearby Roman city square.

Once the target was chosen, everyone walked towards the Roman city square, where everyone was very relaxed and looked like a regular tourist visiting Rome.

Of course, this does not include Cole, who are always on high alert, keeping an eye on pedestrians and tourists around them, ready to respond.

In fact, the Roman city square is just opposite the Colosseum, separated by a green street garden, which can be reached by a street garden.

While talking, Ye Tian and the others had already walked to the south side of the street garden, stopped here, and began to admire a famous historical building standing here.

It is a triumphal arch that has stood for more than a thousand years, built in 315 AD, and is the oldest of the three surviving triumphal arches in Rome, also known as the Arch of Constantine.

In 312 AD, after the victory at the Battle of the Milvi Bridge, the famous triumphal arch was built to celebrate Constantine the Great's victory over Maxenti and his unification of the Roman Empire.

Around the famous Arc de Triomphe, a tall and sturdy iron fence prevents visitors from approaching the Arc de Triomphe, mainly to prevent some tourists from deliberately destroying it.

Therefore, when Ye Tian came here, they could only stand outside the iron fence to visit and admire this famous triumphal arch.

As before, after quietly appreciating for a while, Ye Tian began to explain.

"The Arch of Constantine was built in 315 to commemorate Constantine the Great's victory over Emperor Maxentius and his successful unification of the Roman Empire.

The relief plate above this triumphal arch was taken directly from other buildings in Rome at that time, and the main content is the life achievements of successive emperors, such as Antony and Hadrian.

The relief panel below is a battle scene of Constantine the Great, to highlight his outstanding and great military career, as well as his high position in the history of ancient Rome and the West.

Of the three existing triumphal arches in Rome, the Arch of Constantine was built the latest, but traces of early Roman art can still be seen, and it is relatively well preserved and worth seeing.

It is a triumphal arch with three arches, 21 meters high, 25.7 meters wide, and 7.4 meters deep.

The Arch of Constantine's triumphal arch is filled with various reliefs inside and out, and on the surface, the huge triumphal arch and the colorful reliefs, although magnificent, lack a sense of wholeness.

The reason is that the various parts of the Arch of Constantine were not created uniformly, and most of the relief components were dismantled from some famous buildings of the past and pieced together.

Despite this, it is still a magnificent triumphal arch, especially the carvings of various important periods of the Roman Empire preserved on it, which is a vivid history of Roman sculpture.

The Arch of Constantine is very similar to the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, because the Arc de Triomphe in Paris was built on it, but it is larger, the relief content and the commemorative meaning are different,......"

While introducing this famous triumphal arch, Ye Tian took Betty and the others to stroll around the triumphal arch of Constantine.

After going around and visiting the tall triumphal arch, Ye Tian also happened to finish explaining.

After that, they left the place and continued on their way, ready to follow the holy path into the ancient Roman city square to experience the glory of ancient Rome.

A few steps forward, Ye Tian's mobile phone suddenly rang, it was Kenny who was far away in New York.

Ye Tian took out his phone and glanced at it, then gently slid the screen lock, and Kenny's voice came over immediately.

"Good afternoon, Steven, Blackwater, and the agents of the IZO guys have arrived in Rome, staying at the Paul VI Hotel next to the Vatican, just a stone's throw away from you.

As for their identities, the intelligence officers of Raytheon Security Company have verified it, there should be no problem, I will send you the contact information when I go back, and you can meet at the right time."

When the words fell, Ye Tian immediately smiled and whispered:

"Got it, Kenny, I'll have people verify the identities of those guys again, and as for meeting those guys, forget it, there are countless pairs of eyes around me now.

Once they're identified, the rest is pretty straightforward, and I'll give you tips at the right time so that they can make a lot of money in a completely legal form."

These guys staying at the Paul VI Hotel are the agents of the mercenaries who appeared yesterday in Barcelona, Spain, Marseille, France, and Belgrade, Serbia.

The mercenaries are all special elites who have survived a hundred battles, and they are from the notorious Blackwater, and another well-known mercenary company, Israel's IZO mercenary company.

They took and successfully completed the hunt and kill bounty issued by Ye Tian, and killed all the backbone members of the three gangs, which was to send agents to Rome to receive the reward.

The way Ye Tian paid the remuneration was agreed, providing three opportunities to pick up the leaks, so that those guys could get a fortune that could see the light and complete the transaction.

After chatting with Kenny for a few words, Ye Tian ended the call and hung up the phone.

As he spoke, Ye Tian and the others had already stepped into the Holy Dao and officially entered the ancient Roman city square.

In ancient Rome, major cities generally had squares, large or small.

Originally, these squares were used as markets and public gathering places, and later they were also used for announcements, trials, festivals, and even gladiatorial fights, mostly rectangular

In the spontaneous formation of ancient Roman cities, the location of the square varied from city to city, and in the planned walled city, the square was mostly located at the intersection of the city center.

The Roman Forum, the center of the city from the Roman era, still has some ruins of important buildings from the Roman period.

Important buildings stand here such as the Arch of Titus, the Arch of Constantine, the Arch of Severus, the Temple of Caesar, the Temple of the Vesta, the Temple of Venus and Rome, and many more.

It is also known as the 'ruins of ancient Rome' because of the ruins of ancient Rome, which is why it is home to many famous buildings such as ancient Rome's politics, religion, commerce, and entertainment.

Because of the great historical significance of the 'ruins of ancient Rome', since the discovery of the 18th century, successive Roman governments have deliberately preserved this ruin, leaving a precious cultural heritage for all mankind.

The 'ruins of ancient Rome' are like a huge open-air museum, attracting not only tourists from all over the world, but also many archaeologists and historians.

They came here to explore the life of ancient Rome at that time, which is of great archaeological value!

Of course, it also attracts many professional treasure hunters who come here to explore treasures and find all kinds of treasures left over from ancient Rome.

As a top professional treasure hunter, Ye Tian naturally would not miss such an opportunity.

As soon as he walked into the holy road of the ancient Roman Forum, he secretly opened the perspective and began to explore the ruins of the ancient buildings on both sides of the holy road, as well as the situation deep underground, to see if he could find something!

In Ye Tian's opinion, this is the core area of the ancient Roman Empire, where countless very important buildings are gathered, and there must be many secrets and even huge treasures.

Even if the Romans have cleaned it up more than once, it is impossible to clean it all up, and there must be many secrets waiting to be discovered!
