Chapter 590: he Bizarre Sunken Ships! Could They Have Been Sunk Deliberately?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At first glance, the sunken ships were enveloped by various marine creatures, and obscured by layers of mud and silt. Yet the close proximity allowed a general glimpse of their forms.
The sonar, contrary to expectations, was not as useful. It only provided an approximate picture, still quite vague, working solely on sound feedback. Modern technology had not yet reached the required precision.
“Holy smokes, actual sunken ships! What luck does our streamer have? Who would have thought he’d stumble upon something so incredible at sea?” one viewer exclaimed.
“There are really sunken ships!”
“Good thing I didn’t give up; I’ve finally seen this day!”
“Yeah, all these days, we’ve been watching the streamer flirt with girls or catch fish. Today, at last, the main event has arrived!”
Lin Yueting, sharing the viewers’ excitement, swam over and spoke through her earpiece, “Are these sunken ships?”
“That’s what I believe!” Luo Feng gestured, and soon several people continued to approach.
Quickly, they were just a few meters away. Luo Feng could now clearly see a ship roughly seven or eight meters long, lying askew in the seabed’s mud. He frowned slightly, recognizing it as a fishing boat. Somewhat disappointed, he had hoped for an ancient merchant ship.
“What kind of ship is it? It doesn’t look very big?” Lin Yueting asked.
“It’s probably a fishing boat!”
“From which dynasty?”
“I’m not a god; I can’t tell right now!” Luo Feng responded, somewhat exasperated.
“If it’s a fishing boat, there probably isn’t anything valuable, right?” the young and wealthy Little Long asked.
“Yes, if it’s a fishing boat, there won’t be much left other than fishing gear, but we can’t be certain. Maybe the fishermen had something valuable with them?” Luo Feng consoled.
Shortly after, Luo Feng’s eyes were drawn to a golden gleam spanning about four meters in the middle of the fishing boat. The numerous treasure markers that appeared in his sight caused Luo Feng to doubt that this was an ordinary fishing boat. Though curious, he began to survey the surroundings instead,
‘Why is there another one here?” he wondered.
This fishing boat was about ten meters away from the previous one, neither too close nor too far, but it seemed to belong to the same group.
“Big brother Luo, there’s another one here!” Little Wu, another wealthy youth, discovered one too.
Then the third. The fourth. More were found one after the other.
Luo Feng was taken aback. How could there be so many fishing boats in this area? And looking closer, he realized that these boats must have belonged to the same time period.
“So many fishing boats, and there are more over there. It never ends!” Lin Yueting exclaimed, delighted and surprised. “I suspect that a huge wave swallowed all the fishing boats here!”
“I’m not sure now; but perhaps you are right,” Luo Feng replied, avoiding judgment for the time being.
Soon, Luo Feng observed, “Did you notice that these fishing boats are lined up neatly, one after the other? If they were overturned by waves, they wouldn’t be so orderly!”
Indeed, a wave aligning them so neatly would be too unbelievable.
Lin Yueting considered the arrangement of the boats and agreed. Normally, if waves had overturned them, they would be in a more chaotic pattern. Not like this, lined up as if they had agreed to sink together.
“Wow, there are so many sunken ships!”
“Host, hurry up and see if there’s any treasure on these fishing boats?”
“What treasure can be found on fishing boats? Maybe just some fishing spears and nets!”
“Don’t even think about it; a wave must have knocked them down!”
Luo Feng stopped and didn’t continue to explore further. Although he couldn’t see what lay ahead with his naked eye, he was certain they were all just fishing boats.
“Can any big shot count how many fishing boats there are?”
“I looked, and there are already 12 discovered!”
“Wow, so many, will there be more ahead?”
“Who knows, Old Luo hasn’t gone further!” Luo Feng announced, “I’ll go inside one of the sunken ships and take a look!” “Okay, I’ll go too!” Lin Yueting volunteered.
Quickly, the two swam to a sunken ship’s side, being very cautious. Even though they were not facing any ancient tomb’s traps, being caught in a fishing net would be problematic.
Soon, Luo Feng cleared the way with his Jungle Blade and gently touched the ship’s cabin. Standing on top of it, he used his Swallowtail Hoe to pry open a wooden board and tossed it to the side.
[ Ding! You’ve discovered a treasure worth 80 million yuan! ]
What? What’s going on? 80 million yuan? How could such a small fishing boat be worth this much?
This revelation left Luo Feng completely dumbfounded..
