"Sorry, Bishop Kent, the gap between the iron fences in front is too narrow for these two small drones to pass safely. They can fly forward half a meter at most, and they will hit if they get any closer. The iron fence is up"
Ian, who was controlling one of the small drones, continued and introduced the reality.
Hearing this, Bishop Kent and Antonio were stunned, and then Bishop Kent said eagerly:
"Then what should we do? Steven, the situation in this underground secret passage has not been fully explored, and the deadly traps have not been removed. It is obviously impossible to explore in it.
The two Catholic holy relics in the underground secret room seem to be right in front of us, but we can only watch and wait here. This is really torturous! ”
Ye Tian looked at this old friend, then said with a smile:
"Don't worry, Bishop Kent, I have a way to solve this problem and let everyone see the situation in the underground secret room as soon as possible, but it will take time to prepare, so please be patient and wait for a while.
While waiting for further video footage, everyone can carefully study and discuss the video footage captured by these two small drones. I believe this is also a rare pleasure."
After the words fell, everyone at the scene looked at each other and nodded one after another.
This is the only way! They can only accept this result!
Subsequently, Bishop Kent and Antonio, as well as representatives from various parties, experts and scholars, and two media reporters quickly gathered together and began to study the images captured by two small drones, and had a heated discussion.
Ye Tian was not involved. He first nodded to Matisse.
Mattis understood immediately and understood what he meant.
It's time to release the beetle drone and explore the depths of the secret passage, so that you can enter the underground secret room and take pictures up close.
Because the Beetle drone is a very sensitive and sophisticated equipment that is often used in military operations, it is not suitable to be exposed to representatives of all parties, lest these guys be frightened.
When using a Beetle drone to explore, you need to avoid the eyes and ears of the people at the scene. Then you only need to show the captured video footage!
Matisse turned around and walked out of the basement to make preparations.
Ye Tianze came to David and the others, smiled and whispered:
“The reason why Bishop Kent and the others are so excited is because the two stone tablets placed in the secret room and the contents engraved on those two stone tablets will surely cause a sensation in the entire Western world once they are made public.
The content engraved on the smaller stone tablet in front is 'Gift of Constantine'. Although the words on the larger stone tablet at the back are not clearly visible, they can still be vaguely read. Discuss one or two.
Let’s first talk about the stone tablet in front, which was given by Constantine. It is a very famous legend in Western history. It is also a legend that has caused huge controversy and even almost caused a religious war."
At this point, David suddenly interrupted and said:
"I have heard of the 'Gift of Constantine' before, but I don't know the details. I didn't expect to meet it here today. Steven, please introduce it to everyone in detail"
Ye Tian nodded slightly and continued:
"According to legend, when Emperor Constantine moved the capital of the Roman Empire to Constantinople, he handed over the city of Rome and all the provinces and cities in Italy to the then Holy See, under the eternal rule of the Holy See.
The legends and documents related to it appeared around the eighth century, more than 400 years later than the reign of Emperor Constantine. However, during these 400 years, there was no trace of this legend or document. People know.
As soon as this legend and related documents appeared, it played a huge role. In the middle of the eighth century, Pepin the Short, king of the Franks and founder of the Carolingian dynasty, led an army to capture Italy and Rome.
Then came the famous ‘Pepin’s Dedication’. In order to thank the Pope for his support when he usurped the throne of the Merovingian Dynasty and founded the Carolingian Dynasty, Pepin dedicated Rome and the surrounding areas to the Holy See.
'Pepin's offering of soil' strengthened the connection between the king and the church, placed the religious power above the royal power, and laid the foundation of the Papal State. This famous historical event is based on the 'Constant Ding's gift'.
Shortly thereafter, the long-declined Eastern Roman Empire protested and demanded the recovery of all the land donated to the Holy See by Pepin. The then pope rejected this request on the basis of the 'Gift of Constantine' as a legal basis.
It can be said that the ‘Pepin Donation’ laid the foundation of the Papal State. After that, the Pope gradually became the spiritual leader of the West and a secular monarch in Italy, with both human and divine realms under his jurisdiction.

For more than a thousand years since then, and even to this day, the entire Western world has been deeply affected by this historical event. Although the Vatican no longer owns Italy and Rome, their status is still lofty."
"Wow! This is really an extremely important legend!"
David exclaimed in a low voice, and his whole body became more excited.
At the same time, Bishop Kent and others standing aside also stopped talking and looked here.
Ye Tian glanced at these guys and continued his performance.
"By the Renaissance, the power and influence of the Holy See had greatly diminished, and had even become a puppet of some European powers. Even the appointment and dismissal of the Pope was in the hands of several European powers.
With the rise of the religious reform movement and the rise of Protestantism, many humanities scholars have questioned the 'Gift of Constantine', which has also become an important basis for attacking the Holy See during the religious reform movement.
These humanist scholars believe that in order to legitimize the 'Pepin's dedication', the pope forged relevant legends and documents. In this way, what Pepin did was just returning the territory belonging to the pope to the pope.
I will not comment on the authenticity of the legend of 'The Gift of Constantine' and related documents. I do not want to cause controversy, let alone a religious war. I am an outsider, and these matters have nothing to do with me. .
From my point of view, if Julius II, who built this underground space, has physical evidence and documents related to the 'Gift of Constantine', he must be more careful and it is necessary to They hide.
The Holy See at that time had just gone through nearly one or two hundred years of turmoil, and its strength and influence were greatly reduced. It was also criticized by humanist scholars and strongly impacted by the religious reform movement.
The 'Gift of Constantine' became an important basis for new sects to attack the Holy See during the religious reform movement. It directly aroused people's doubts about the Holy See and also inspired Western scholars to doubt the Holy See's documents.
In this case, Pope Julius II had only one choice, which was to hide all the physical evidence and documents related to the 'Gift of Constantine' to avoid being destroyed or triggering religious war.
There may be many more sensitive Holy See documents hidden at the same time, and they are likely to be stored in those seven or eight boxes. As for the authenticity of these documents, we need to study them slowly in the future! ”
After the words fell, the scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone fell into deep thought.
However, due to their different positions, the expressions on everyone's faces are also different.
Both Bishop Kent and Antonio were extremely excited and beaming with joy. They even couldn't wait to enter this secret passage and the underground chamber to retrieve the religious relics that had been hidden for more than five hundred years.
However, there is still a bit of worry in their eyes. What if the stone tablet recording the 'Gift of Constantine' is indeed a forgery? How should this be handled?
Compared with them, Paolo, Giovanni, and the Deputy Minister of Culture of Italy all had extremely solemn expressions, and everyone had worried eyes!
What they worry about is, what if the legendary 'Gift of Constantine' is true? Do we really want to give Italy and Rome to the Vatican?
