Chapter 272: The Battle Under the Sea
Ye Ning was not idle, and after stealing the spy list, he immediately plunged into the ocean treasure hunt.
During the day, he still likes to stay in the pet store, because the animals he buys are stored next door and can be put into the turtle shell space at any time.
However, only he knows where his consciousness goes, and Ye Ning can be regarded as giving full play to the outside of the world.
On this day, he controlled the sperm whale to explore in the Caribbean Sea, and from the data, the San Jose was at a depth of 740 feet in the Caribbean Sea, about 16 miles off the coast of Colombia.
After all, these materials are only found on the Internet, not authoritative information, and the Colombians claim that the San Jose is their national property and want to salvage it for their own use, even if the exact location is really discovered, how can it really be made public?
"I heard that the Colombian government has begun to prepare for the salvage of the San Jose, and I have to act quickly."
Or from the information to know that Colombia's estimated salvage cost is 30 million US dollars, that is, nearly 200 million yuan, from this huge amount of money, we can know that the Colombian government attaches great importance to the wreck, you must know that if the wealth in the wreck is not much, it is not a big loss to salvage it with 30 million US dollars? Even if there are estimated value of 30 million, or even 40 million, in the wreck, it is not worth salvage, after all, there are all kinds of risks in salvage, and no one wants to take risks when there is an imbalance between risk and profit.
However, the cost of 30 million US dollars, Ye Ning does not need it, and Ye Ning can be said to not need a dime of cost. It's just a bit of hard work.
"Click."
Ye Ning forcibly suppressed his slowly accelerating heartbeat. Control sperm whales using sonar detection.
At the same time, according to the results of the probe. Let the octopus and swordfish further confirm that the sperm whale is equivalent to macro control.
After looking for a few hours, Ye Ning's eyes suddenly lit up, and according to the echo, he sensed a shape in the distance, which was likely to be a sunken ship, and it was very huge, and the sonar detection could not measure the details of the objects in the distance, but such a large ship was still obvious. Unless it's the mud and rocks that just form the shape of a ship.
"Whoosh"
Ye Ning immediately controlled the swordfish and shot it like an arrow.
In a moment, a huge shipwreck came into view, like a behemoth lying quietly at the bottom of the sea.
Ye Ning's heart beat faster, controlled the swordfish to swim down, got into the boat, and quickly searched inside, and after a while, the sperm whale and the octopus also rushed over, the sperm whale continued to carefully sonar detection, and the octopus joined the search in the boat.
Soon I searched all over again. To Ye Ning's disappointment, this should be some cargo ship. Judging by some words, it was still some grain, and the grain itself was not worth a few dollars, and after so many years, it had long been eaten up or rotted by the fish, and there was nothing left.
In other words, although the shipwreck was found this time, it was returned empty-handed.
Of course, if Ye Ning doesn't have any money, he can also dismantle the ship and get it back to sell scrap copper and rotten iron, and he should be able to sell it for some money, but Ye Ning has money, what he wants to make is a lot of money, and it is not worth it to use the turtle shell space for this little money to increase the chance of exposure. To be honest, it is better to dismantle this ship and sell scrap copper and iron, than to pick up some more valuable marine creatures.
Ye Ning returned disappointed, but he was not discouraged and continued to probe.
Two or three days passed in the blink of an eye, and when Ye Ning was a little exhausted, suddenly the sperm whale detected a big ship again.
Ye Ning's eyes lit up, and he controlled the swordfish to swim over, and then saw a huge sailboat sandwiched between a ravine on the bottom of the sea, which was full of silt and moss, almost burying the galleon, so it was impossible to identify whether the ship was the San Jose or not.
Ye Ning controlled the swordfish to swim down, drilled down from the ravine, and wanted to go around to the bottom of the wreck to see if he could see any words, confirm the name of the ship, the swordfish had a lamp hanging on its head that could be used in the deep sea, so it could be seen clearly when it went underneath, just as Ye Ning was close to the side under the wreck and had a good look, suddenly there was a commotion next to it.
Ye Ning intuitively felt that as soon as the light dimmed, a behemoth suddenly wanted to envelop itself.
Ye Ning was startled, the situation was urgent, he didn't have time to see what that behemoth was, he suddenly swung his tail, suddenly accelerated, and shot out like an arrow from the string, avoiding the sneak attack of the unknown behemoth, fortunately, the swordfish was fast enough, otherwise it would have been dangerous just now.
Ye Ning immediately detected the shape of the behemoth through the sonar detection of the sperm whale.
"Oh my God, it looks like it's a king squid."
Ye Ning was a little nervous and a little excited, the sperm whale was the only natural enemy of the king squid. However, it is not that the sperm whale can kill the king squid in seconds, after all, the sperm whale usually only eats ordinary squid, and there is still a lot of danger in fighting with the king squid, and if you are not careful, you may also be planted, and there are examples of sperm whales being killed by the king squid.
Of course, now that the sperm whale is already in the middle stage of qi training, it is not an ordinary sperm whale to look at, and the odds of winning against the king squid should be greater, not enough for the opponent After all, the opponent has the terrifying title of "North Sea Giant Demon", Ye Ning did not dare to be careless after all.
"Huh? It hid again. ”
Ye Ning detected through the sperm whale sonar and learned that the king squid could not be hit with one blow, and hid under the ship again.
Ye Ning didn't want to waste time playing hide and seek with it, and controlled the sperm whale to swim quietly, although it was pitch black below, and the light source of the swordfish and octopus above could not shine under the boat, but the sperm whale had sonar detection was enough, and there was no need for light at all.
"Close, ten, eight, six, four, two......"
Suddenly, the king squid moved, and shot out at an extremely fast speed, and all at once an uncountable tentacle swept over.
Ye Ning was not afraid, rushed forward directly, opened his huge mouth and bit the king squid directly, and then quickly swam out of it, intending to swallow the king squid directly, originally swallowing the squid This kind of thing should be extremely disgusting and unswallowable, but because it is a sperm whale that is controlled, Ye Ning actually has a delicious sense. Can't wait to swallow the king squid.
"Snort" "Snort" "Snort"
Suddenly, there was a sound of tearing. Ye Ning felt a sharp pain in his head. Through the sight of the octopus, it was seen that there were several deep cracks left on the sperm whale's head, and blood was dripping with blood.
Ye Ning stared at the "King Squid" and took a closer look, seeing its huge size stretched out about eighteen meters, and seeing the hook claws on its tentacles, he was immediately surprised: "Where is this King Squid, this is clearly the King Squid, also known as the Giant Spear Squid." ”
Ye Ning realized instantly. I underestimated the enemy, although the name of the king squid is loud, but in fact it is only the second largest squid, the reason why it is named the king squid is because when it was named, the existence of the giant spear squid has not been discovered, thinking that this is the largest squid in the world.
The giant spear squid, a medium-sized hooked claw, is a creature that was only exposed in July 2002, and is the largest of its species. Not only is it larger than the king squid, but it is also a more active predator. Its eyes and beak are larger than those of the king squid. The tentacles have suction cups and hooks about 5 cm in size, which can be used to catch prey or defend themselves, and can be said to be much more dangerous than the king squid.
Of course, even so, the sperm whale, which is already in the middle of Qi training, still has a great chance to eat the giant spear squid, but it is not worth being scratched by it, Ye Ning doesn't care if it is fair to fight two or one, control the octopus to swim over, eight wrists stretched out, and grabbed the tentacles that were buckled in the skin of the sperm whale's head and broke them off, although the giant spear squid has ten tentacles, two more than the octopus, but only two tentacles are unstable to grasp.
"Let yourself eat it."
Ye Ning was afraid of leaving a psychological shadow, so he still didn't swallow the giant spear squid by himself, withdrew his consciousness, and let the sperm whale control it himself.
The sperm whale was also unceremonious, and swallowed the giant spear squid whole, if it was a human, it would definitely have to burp, even if it was a sperm whale with an amazing appetite, swallowing a giant spear squid, it should be full.
"Haha, seeing that you are enjoying eating, I have the opportunity to take you to catch it again, specializing in eating king squid and giant spear squid, but I have to work now."
Ye Ning saw that the sperm whale seemed to be satisfied, and couldn't help but smile in his heart, he once again controlled the swordfish and octopus to look at the bottom of the boat, but unfortunately he didn't see the words, I don't know if it was originally absent, or if the words have rotted and disappeared after many years.
Ye Ning doesn't care so much, even if this ship is not the San Jose, it is at least a ship, so it is worth going in and inquiring.
Because the ship looks like it is about to rot and collapse, and there is a ravine below that is unstable, Ye Ning was afraid that the swordfish would be injured, so he didn't let the swordfish get in, but just let the octopus get in. Second, in case the shipwreck collapses and the octopus is crushed, the flexibility of the octopus's body is less likely to be injured, and even if the wrist is broken, it can regenerate.
All in all, this kind of work is only capable of the octopus.
Ye Ning controlled the octopus into the wreck, searched carefully, and after a while, he saw a few bricks scattered in a dilapidated doorway, Ye Ning stretched out his wrist and touched it, and the ash layer and silt on the bricks were wiped off, revealing a golden surface.
Ye Ning's eyes suddenly lit up, his heart beat faster, and he quickly erased the ash layer on the other "drill bits", also revealing the golden surface.
Ye Ning easily threw the extremely fast gold bar into the turtle shell space, and couldn't wait to get into the broken door, and then saw that the entire cabin, many boxes were rotten and cracked, and there were gold bars, silver bars, gold coins, and gold-cast lampstands everywhere...... Ye Ning was almost dumbfounded, and his heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.
Gold, which can be said to be one of the most stable currencies, often has this currency or that currency depreciated, but there is basically no depreciation of gold, even if it occasionally falls, it will soon rise back, so many rich people like to buy gold bars to save and wait for promotion.
Therefore, looking at so many gold bars and gold coins, Ye Ning does not need to find someone to identify the value like he found an antique, he can directly say that these gold are absolutely valuable.
"With so much gold and silver, how many catties do you have to have...... No, how many tons do you have to have? ”
Ye Ning didn't have time to estimate, although theoretically no one robbed him, there was time, but he always felt like he would be robbed after a while.
He hurriedly loaded the gold bars and coins into the turtle shell space, and the eight wrists of the octopus were used, grabbed a large handful, and threw them into the turtle shell space, making a nice noise.
At this moment, for Ye Ning, everything is weak and explosive in the sky, can grabbing a handful of banknotes be as valuable as grabbing a handful of gold coins?
It took more than an hour for Ye Ning to throw all the gold and silver of the entire ship into the turtle shell space, almost not letting go of a piece, and then carefully searched the boatboy to confirm that nothing of great value was missing, and then he stopped.
"It's almost certain that this is the San Jose, otherwise it would have been hard to have so much gold."
Ye Ning's heart was crooked, and he couldn't help but want to laugh three times, these treasures were valued at one billion US dollars, that is, nearly six billion yuan.
Even if there is a certain deviation, but at least half, half is three billion yuan, oh my God! How much does this have to be, it's a little dizzy to think about.
All in all, Ye Ning is not short of money, he is crazy to spend money to buy all kinds of animals around the world, and there is definitely a surplus, if those precious protected animals from various countries are also willing to sell, then Ye Ning can also buy them.
Ye Ning was about to leave happily with the octopus, swordfish, and sperm whale, but when he glanced back at the San Jose, Ye Ning controlled the sperm whale to go around again, and then hit the San Jose with his head a few times, causing the already crumbling San Jose to be tattered and sink under the ravine.
Ye Ning then controlled the octopus, threw all the shipwreck fragments on both sides of the gully into the gully, and pushed some silt and stones down to bury the shipwreck.
It's not that Ye Ning is violent and sabotage, it's not that Ye Ning wants to bury it, but Ye Ning thinks that if Colombia finds the ship and confirms that it is the San Jose, but there is no gold in it, then I am afraid that it will pay attention to those who are looking at the sale of gold, and if the San Jose cannot be found, it will be completely different.
Although Ye Ning can deny it anyway, there is no evidence anyway, but it is better to be careful. (To be continued......)
