Two Aurora small submarines and two underwater robots are in place, and the salvage operation will begin immediately.
Ye Tian stood up from the sofa and went straight to the control center next to the living room on the main deck, preparing to remotely control the salvage operation deep under the sea.
As for those experts and scholars, he stayed in the living room on the main deck because of the limited space in the control center. They could only watch the real-time images from the seabed through the large-screen TV.
As soon as he entered the control center and closed the glass hatch, Ye Tian immediately whispered through the invisible wireless headset:
"Matisse, when salvaging that life-size female marble statue, be sure to remember not to take a frontal image of the statue. It is best not to expose the side profile of the statue to avoid revealing the secret.
These experts and scholars in the fleet have very sharp eyesight. If they see the side profile of the female human statue, they will probably guess the origin of the human statue, which will definitely cause a stir.
You say hello to Chandler and the others and ask them to cooperate. I believe those guys will not refuse. The current posture of the female human statue is face down and lying in the broken box.
After using the robotic arm to break open the box, you immediately covered the statue with a rope net, and then cleaned up the coral fragments and sand and gravel around the statue. With this statue, we cannot be too careful.
As for the bronze head of Socrates, the giant of ancient Greek philosophy, and the other unknown bronze head, there is no need to cover it up during salvage. Anyway, those two heads are also rusty, and nothing can be seen for the time being."
"Understood, Steven, don't worry, leave it to us, there won't be any problems"
Mattis responded and immediately ended the call.
Next, Ye Tian sat down at the workbench and began to remotely direct the salvage operation of sunken treasures deep under the sea.
The first thing to be salvaged were the two bronze heads, the bronze head of Socrates, the giant of ancient Greek philosophy, and the other unknown bronze head.
It is actually not that difficult to salvage these two bronze heads. They are not very heavy and are very strong, so there is no need to worry about damage.
In previous exploration operations, Ye Tian and the others had already discovered the exact location of the two bronze heads and done some preliminary cleaning work.
When salvaging now, it is only necessary to complete the follow-up cleaning work, clean up the remaining coral reefs and seaweed, and then load the two bronze heads into the rope net.
In fact, Matisse and his colleagues carried out salvage operations exactly according to this process.
They drove two small submarines and quickly cleaned up the coral reefs, seaweed, and tattered wooden boxes outside the two statues, revealing the two rusty bronze statues.
Next, the two bronze heads, which had been sleeping deep under the sea for more than two thousand years, were put into two small rope nets, just waiting to float to the surface and see the light of day again.
The next salvaged object is the life-size female statue, which is also the most valuable treasure in this ancient Roman shipwreck treasure.
Mattis and the others drove two small submarines, suspended next to the coral reef where the statue was located, and began to use robotic arms to clean up the algae on the remaining coral reefs.
In less than ten minutes, the small coral reef was almost completely cleaned up, revealing the wooden box underneath.
The wooden box has been soaked in seawater for more than two thousand years, coupled with the decomposition of marine life. Even though it was once very strong, sturdy and made of excellent wood, it has now decayed.
Without any effort, the wooden box was torn apart by two small submarines using their own mechanical arms, revealing the female human statue inside.
At this moment, the live broadcast suddenly changed and switched to a distant view of the salvage site, which was shot with a high-definition underwater camera carried on the deep-diving decompression stop.
This was done deliberately, and the two live broadcast groups from the United States were very cooperative.
In fact, it won’t work if they don’t cooperate.
The operation to salvage this ancient Roman shipwreck treasure will continue for another twenty days. They don’t want to cause trouble unless they want to end the live broadcast today!
Of course, the sudden switch of the live broadcast camera will inevitably attract some voices of dissatisfaction, but nothing will be changed.
Using the mechanical grabbers on the two small submarines, Matisse and the others quickly cleaned up the coral reef fragments and some seaweed that fell on the statue, as well as the wooden box fragments that were integrated with the coral.
Immediately afterwards, Matisse and his colleagues covered the marble statue with a rope net with weighted **** to prevent it from being exposed in advance.
After completing this action, the two small submarines gave way to the side one after another, making room for the two underwater robots to work.
The two underwater robots immediately landed on the sand, and then used their long robotic arms to pass through the sand under the statue and tied slings to several different locations on the marble statue.
The positions of these slings have been carefully calculated so that the statue can be successfully lifted without causing any damage to the precious marble statue.
Even the slings are made of high-strength nylon slings about three fingers wide, rather than steel cables.
After tying several slings, an alloy hook connected to the Brave and Intrepid with a steel cable slowly hung down from the sea water above to the marble statue.
At the same time, Matisse and the others were not idle. They laid a large and strong rope net on the sand next to them to salvage the three statues.
After arranging the rope net, deep-sea salvage expert Vitus used an underwater robot to hang all the slings tied to the female human statue on the alloy hook.
The next moment, the marble female human body statue was successfully lifted and then gently placed in the center of the rope net on the sand, followed by the two bronze figures.
This series of actions was completed beautifully without any accidents.
The moment the female human body statue was placed in the center of the rope net, Ye Tian, who was staying in the maritime control center, immediately let out a sigh of relief and waved his fist excitedly.
In the depths of the seabed, the huge rope net has been folded up, trapping the three statues in the net and hanging them together with the hooks.
Immediately afterwards, Matisse and the others drove two small submarines close to the rope net, and used mechanical arms to start injecting air into the empty buoyancy bags outside the rope net to increase buoyancy and avoid accidents.
As a large amount of air entered, the empty buoyancy bags quickly inflated and slowly brought the rope net up, and kept pulling it toward the sea.
Seeing that the rope net was about to be pulled up from the ridge by many buoyancy bags, Ye Tian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"Matisse, stop injecting air into the buoyancy bag and check the rope net one last time, especially where the rope net connects to the hook. There must be no problems.
After the rope net is hoisted, if something goes wrong and breaks or slips from the hook, the trouble will be big. Those three priceless statues are likely to fall into the deep sea! ”
"Understood, Steven, let's check the rope net and eliminate all hidden dangers"
Matisse responded, then took action and began to inspect the inverted funnel-shaped rope net.
It took only a few minutes for the inspection results to come out. There were no problems. The rope net was very safe and strong, and was fully capable of the task of salvaging the sunken treasure.
After confirming the results, Matisse and the others began to inject air into several buoyancy bags.
In just a moment, this huge rope net containing three priceless statues and full of hope slowly floated away from the ridge that stretched across the seabed.
Suspended around this huge rope net are two Aurora mini-submarines, two state-of-the-art underwater robots, and a deep-diving decompression stop loaded with various supplies and equipment.
Several powerful beams of light emitted from these high-tech exploration equipment firmly covered the huge rope net, and the scene was spectacular.
This scene was like a science fiction blockbuster, and it immediately attracted a cry of exclamation.
"Wow! This scene is so spectacular and cool! This guy Steven is so willing to invest, no wonder he can find so many treasures. There are few people who can compare with the courage to invest such a large sum of money! ”
"If this wasn't a live broadcast of a shipwreck treasure salvage operation, when I saw these pictures, I would have thought it was a newly released science fiction blockbuster. It was so shocking."
Just when people were amazed, Ye Tian's voice suddenly came out and reached countless people's ears clearly.
"Guys, lift up! Lift those three statues out of the sea, let them shine as brightly as they should, and give the whole world a huge surprise"
As the order came out, the huge rope net suspended above the ridge on the seafloor was slowly lifted and moved toward the sea little by little.
At the same time, the two small submarines and two underwater robots driven by Matisse and the others stayed around the rope net and floated to the sea together.
Only the deep-diving decompression stop, filled with various supplies and equipment, remains deep under the sea.
At this moment, everyone in the exploration fleet on the sea, as well as countless people on the live broadcast, are staring at the slowly rising huge rope net and the three statues in the rope net.
