Now the ocean of the pregnant sea pearl space has become vibrant.

Barracuda and tuna are in schools and densely packed.

Thorn rays hide quietly on the undersea sand.

Groupers swim around the reef.

Sea turtles are eating seaweed.

Dozens of dolphins cooperate to target a feast on schools of tuna.

For the sake of insurance, Chen Rui did not put a higher level of creature than the speartail fish food chain in the Pregnant Sea Pearl Space Ocean, in case a shark was released and the speartail fish was eaten, it would be a tragedy.

Therefore, all of a sudden, a male, a female and a pair of speartail fish became the predatory overlords of this sea.

Suddenly, a black shadow appeared in front of Chen Rui's eyes, lying quietly on the undersea beach like a giant.

Chen Rui was excited and sped up to swim over.

Swimming closer, I found the wreckage of a huge ship, its mottled hull, rusty hinges, crooked masts, and cannons buried in the sand, silently recounting the ship's tragic fate, which had been immersed in the cold, gloomy waters for hundreds of years.

A small half of the hull was buried in the sand, and the deck and cabin were partially exposed.

It was a Mediterranean-style sailing ship, one of the two most common sailing ships in Spain before the advent of Spanish galleons.

They were small, light merchant ships with spinnakers, and it was the two Mediterranean-style galleons that accompanied the larger 'Virgin Mary' in 1492 on her adventure to discover the New World of America, and they became the most common adventure ships.

To Chen Rui's disappointment, the planks of the ship were scattered on the bottom of the sea, and there was a large hole on the side of the ship, the incision of the hole was very smooth, and the cabin where the supplies were stored was empty.

Apparently, other treasure hunters had already taken the lead, leaving nothing of value on board.

But when you think about it, it feels normal.

This area is one of the world's most famous 'Tomb of Treasures'.

For hundreds of years, there are not a few treasure hunters who have come here to hunt for treasure, and there is such a conspicuous shipwreck on the bottom of the sea, which has not been covered by sediment, has long been discovered.

Chen Rui searched carefully in the cabin for a while.

A few Spanish double-column silver dollars were harvested, presumably left by the sailors on the ship, and missed by the treasure hunters who had made the first move.

The Spanish Double Column Silver Circle was the Spanish conquest of Mexico from 1519 to 1521, after which a large silver mine was discovered, and in 1732 a large number of 'double columns' were cast on the spot.

Spanish colonies such as Chile, Bolivia, Colombia, Guatemala, Venezuela, Peru, etc., also cast 'double columns'.

These 'double-column' silver dollars are worth between 600 and 1,000 each, which is better than nothing.

After leaving the wreck, Chen Rui continued to search the bottom of the sea.

Two months later, Chen Rui had searched most of the previously demarcated area.

The shipwrecks have found a few.

Or someone has already taken the lead.

Either they didn't have much value, but found some sailors on board carrying Spanish gold and silver coins, gold and silver jewelry, jewelry, and silver cutlery for meals.

In Chen Dong's view, this is normal.

Not every Spanish merchant ship was loaded with gold, silver and jewelry, most of which were loaded with slaves brought from Spain and coffee and sugar from South America.

Only a small fraction of them were treasure ships laden with gold, silver and jewellery looted from South America.

Finding a treasure ship full of gold, silver and jewelry, but no one has been on board first, is to meet the big luck, worth at least hundreds of millions of dollars to hundreds of millions of dollars.

Treasure hunting requires patience, especially undersea treasure hunting.

Treasure hunting is like searching for oil, it takes a lot of time, energy and money, but it may not be rewarding.

Luck is very important.

Chen Rui had already prepared for this.

It's also normal for a treasure hunter or treasure hunt company to spend ten years or even decades searching for a shipwreck.

Odyssey, for example, took 12 years before it found its first valuable shipwreck, the SSREPUBLIC.

Mel. It took Fisher 30 years to find the wreck of the Lady Atoka.

However, more treasure hunters spend ten or even decades of time and energy, and hundreds or tens of millions of dollars do not gain anything.

Chen Rui plans to spend half a year searching this area.

On this day, Chen Rui searched the seabed as usual, meticulously, and whenever he saw something that was not stone, he had to use a metal detector to probe it.

At this time, Chen Rui had dived to the bottom of the sea at a depth of more than 200 meters, and the limit depth of ordinary submarines was 300~400 meters.

Tremendous water pressure can squash a person.

In addition to the underwater probe QÌ people, divers wearing anti-compression suits cannot dive to this depth.

With the water splitting decision and the turtle breath decision, Xiaocheng has a transformed body.

Although Chen Rui felt a little pressure on the seabed of more than 200 meters, it was almost negligible for Chen Rui, and it did not have much impact on Chen Rui's seabed search work.

More than 200 meters of the seabed, there is only a glimmer of light, very dark, the water is very cold, the surroundings are very quiet, and the silence is a little weird.

Chen Rui wears a waterproof mineral lamp and holds a metal detector in his hand.

Walking in the sand and gravel of the seabed is like walking on flat land, walking freely and steadily.

'Didi~. ’

The metal detector went off.

Chen Rui's spirit was shocked, and his face was happy.

Anyone who repeats a task over and over again on the cold, dark seabed at a depth of more than 200 meters will be bored for months on end.

Now after hearing the 'Di Di' prompt sound from the metal detector, it was like a fairy music, which shocked Chen Rui's spirit.

Chen Rui squatted down and picked up the sand with his hands, revealing the first part of the ship's string.

This discovery immediately made Chen Rui exclaim.

The next discovery made Chen Rui even more excited.

The high string, the high tail building, the low foredeck, the stern flat, and a protrusion at the bow of the ship, like the ramming angle of an oar, had a separate gun emplacement.

The hull has a distinct equilateral trapezoidal shape (both sides of the hull are angled inward from bottom to top) and this incline extends all the way to the stern.

The aspect ratio is 4:1.

This is typical of Spanish galleons.

The high bow and stern decks, when two ships get stuck side by side in a war, have the advantage of being able to board enemy ships with ease.

The ratio of length to width of 4:1 gave the Spanish galleon an advantage in speed compared to other sailing ships of its time, such as the Clarke.
