After working for half a night in the afternoon, I finally cleared out a large pit of 8 or 9 square meters, and as the sediment gradually settled, it was a big black guy exposed under the searchlight of the submarine, and I couldn't tell what it was. Hong Tao has no scruples, let alone any attention, Anima archaeology is not archaeology, and he doesn't wait for Jim to make a decision, and he is a punch when he operates the manipulator.

"Don't ...... Aite, don't do this, you're going to lose a lot of evidence! Alas, give up, this is a World War II shipwreck, and you leaked its bottom. Jim couldn't stop it, and the submarine's manipulator directly punched a big hole in the black thing, revealing the structure inside. Jim only needed a few glances to understand what this thing was, and no 18th-century Spanish galleon, no matter how advanced, could not have a metal hull.

"Aren't we going to dig it out and have a better look? What if it's a Nazi treasure? Maybe the cabin is full of gold bars!" Hong Tao was still unwilling, and controlled the mechanical hand to reach in and grab it all the time, in addition to expanding the hole and mixing the water, he really caught out a mess of things, fishing nets!

"It doesn't make sense, if this is Nazi treasure, we will definitely not get a permit to excavate, it is all state property. Besides, there is no historical record of a Nazi treasure ship sinking in this sea area, let's go, you should continue your treasure hunting activities with this big toy of yours, and I will send Dan down to take a look in a while. "Jim has a lot of headaches for Hong Tao, a two-knife pure agitator, and always wants to drive him away, but he can't say it explicitly.

Others think they are in the way, but Hong Tao can see it even if he has no heart, and he has a thick skin. But Hong Tao still can't do it by making trouble for his team. What should I do if I am despised? I have to do something to slap them in the face. So Hong Tao decided to officially leave the shelter of the mother ship and began to carry out his own planned treasure hunting operation. Back on the mother ship. He also lay on the chart and stomped around for a long time, and then ran to the computer draftsman sent by the Kvarna company for a long time to ask, and finally determined his goals, Salvora Island and Wenns Island!

On the coast of northwestern Spain, there is a series of terrain similar to Norwegian fjords, such as Vigo Bay, Pentevedra Bay, and Asaro Bay. At the entrance to the fjord there are also a bunch of small islands, Salvola at the mouth of Asaro Bay, Onse Island at the mouth of Pentvedra Bay, and Shakes Islands at the mouth of Vigo Bay. According to the seabed tectonic map. The terrain around these islands is very complex, with not only reefs but also ravines, ranging from 7 to 80 meters deep and less than 10 meters in shallow places.

Why do you want to determine the islands of Salvora and Ungs? Because the eastern side of the Celes Islands has been explored countless times, Hong Tao feels that he has no special functions, so why bother to pick up people's teeth and go to places that no one has explored. Due to the high currents and the underwater reefs, it is difficult for large and small boats to approach the two islands. But Hong Tao is not afraid, he has a small submarine. No matter how fast the undercurrent is underwater, it is much weaker than on the surface, and it relies on an all-round drive system. The small submarine can enter and exit the ravines and ravines under the water, and the only thing that is a little troublesome is that it leaves the mother ship, and the small submarine has to rely on its own power and oxygen supply. Endurance is greatly reduced.

"Move the air compressor and generator to the patrol boat, and you can find a few crew members to drive the patrol boat to me as the mother ship!" Hong Tao felt that this little trouble was not worth mentioning at all. As for the work of disassembling and assembling equipment and handling equipment, he can't control it. This is the standard upper moving mouth and lower running broken legs. In order to re-equip the small mother ship for him, more than 20 crew members worked all morning to get it done.

Neither Jim's team nor Levin had any opinion on Hong Tao's own tossed out a small expedition, any way to get this uncle to leave the Mouse Superman is a good way, and no one wants to work steadily with him, because what he is thinking about is not how to search more scientifically and efficiently, but how to make it more fun. Work and games have been opposites since ancient times, so Hong Tao and Jim's team are also opposed, Jim even suggested that Hong Tao drive a helicopter to Barcelona for a walk, not to watch football, Jim is willing to pay for Hong Tao to buy tickets.

Of course Hong Tao is not going, the more others hate him, the more he has to stay and disgust people to play, it is a kind of happiness to be liked, and it is also a pleasure to be hated, whenever you see the expression that others want to beat you but can't, it is also very enjoyable. Besides, Hong Tao didn't find nothing after picking up garbage for a week, he found the remains of a ship that was said to be from the 19th century, and after his destructive excavation, an iron anchor and two cannons were soaking in the electrolysis cell at this time to precipitate salt, and in a few days the calcareous shell outside fell off, and the true face of the object inside could be seen. Not to mention something more than a hundred years ago, Hong Tao felt that he was already an archaeologist, and he also gave himself a stage name, called Hong Yi Grab, which should mean that no matter what he saw, he would operate the manipulator to go up and grab it.

In the blink of an eye, a week has passed, Jim and their side still have found nothing, 5 of the 6 key areas have been scanned, and a lot of strong signals have been found, but after diving to confirm, most of them are modern garbage and other wrecks, and they have nothing to do with the gold fleet. Christmas is a week away, and Jim is arguing over whether to take Christmas off or continue working, and according to Jim, if there is no trace of the Golden Fleet in the last key area, the search area should be expanded another 5 kilometers to the west.

But Christmas doesn't mean much to Hong Tao, he doesn't even plan to spend the Spring Festival, if there is something happy, every day is a festival, if there is no happy thing, every day is not happy, this is his definition of a festival. These days, he is having a good time, and he feels uncomfortable every day if he doesn't drive a submarine down to catch a few handfuls, and naturally he doesn't want to go back for Christmas, and that thing is to commemorate religion, and he doesn't believe in religion, so he commemorates a yarn! He announced that he would bring some of the best local chefs from Barcelona to the ship for Christmas to cook a Catalan-style Spanish meal. It's not enough to eat, after Christmas dinner, there is a group of local Spanish girls on the boat, as for what to do, do whatever you can!

Now that there is food and color, even Levin has begun to call his wife and daughter to ask for leave, not to mention others, it is really not easy to catch up with such a good partner, and he must cherish it. Therefore, except for the three-day Christmas holiday, all of them voluntarily worked overtime, and as long as the last key area was not found, they immediately expanded the search area to the west.

After getting the official exploration team, Hong Tao's temporary team is not idle, the waters west of Salvora Island have been searched, and the waters on the west side of Wence Island have just been searched, Hong Tao plans to seize the time and strive to search Wence Island as soon as possible, and then go to the Celes Islands to have a look. Although Jim said that many people had searched over there, Hong Tao still believed in himself more, and he was unwilling to catch two on the spot.

"Why are we only searching along the west side of the island, and don't we need to look at the other side?" Rada, who has been acting as the mother ship captain of the submarine on the patrol boat, happened to change shifts with Singh today, and came down to help Hong Tao drive the submarine, and after seeing all the icons that Hong Tao has searched for in the past few days, she has some doubts.

"The outer side of the island is the route, there are more reefs on the inner side, and there are so many headlands, motorized boats can't get in, and the ancient galleons are not so flexible to operate. After more than half a month of hearing and seeing, Hong Tao also knew some knowledge of ancient sailing ships, and he didn't think about the questions raised by Rada, and directly filtered them out.

"If I were the commander of that fleet, I might have chosen to take the route on the east side of the island, for the difficulties on the route would be easier to overcome than if it had been chased and sunk by the Anglo-Dutch navy. Reef or something, they are the Spanish fleet, this is their homeland, among the thousands of sailors, it should not be difficult to find a few people who are familiar with the waters. As for the direction of the wind, it can only be a gamble of luck, the big ship full of gold, silver and jewels will definitely not be able to outrun the British and Dutch warships, even if they take the western route, it is estimated that the final fate will be overtaken. Radha did not agree with Hong Tao's explanation, and she insisted on her own judgment according to her mode of thinking.

"Don't say it, it's kind of interesting! Leave it to death and come back to life, everyone knows that this place is not easy to walk in, it is very dangerous, doesn't that mean that this place is safe......! Rada, you have obviously made progress with me, you all know reverse thinking!" Hong Tao was manipulating the manipulator to fight against a bunch of broken fishing nets, and when he heard Rada's words, he simply stopped what he was doing, and stared at Rada in a daze for ten seconds, rolling his eyes playfully, and finally transferred more than half of Rada's credit to himself.

"The one who is close to Zhu is red and the one who is close to ink is black!" Rada was also very proud when he heard Hong Tao approving his suggestion, and shook his head and dragged a sentence in Chinese.

"This idiom is not quite right, if you want to praise me, the first half of the sentence is enough, and the second half of the sentence is a bit ridiculous, it is better to change to another idiom, called a strong general has no weak soldiers. Let's go and look at the pile of seaweed, try to finish this piece today, and tomorrow we'll go to the other side of the island. If you really get it right, I'll find a way to get you a real fighter back, and you will be the commander of the Belize Air Force in the future!" Hong Tao didn't know who taught this idiom to Lada, anyway, she didn't use it in the right place, she preferred to fly planes than learning Chinese. As for whether Belize has an air force, who knows, Mongolia can have a naval commander, why can't Belize have an air force commander......!
