Tomb Robbery: Successor to the King, starting in Yunnan Worm Valley

Chapter 264 The Great Crown of St. Stephen

It seems that this trip was supposed to bring him great wealth.

As a result, the ships sank in the coral spiral due to the disaster.

The ship owner also turned into a resentful spirit and has been guarding his treasure.

Wang Ye didn't feel sorry for this guy.

To be able to keep this little thing for more than a thousand years and not want to leave it, to say that the miser is already a compliment to him.

Letting him disappear is actually helping him to escape.

Wang Ye used the hilt of the Star-Breaking Sword to lightly tap the sealed Naiqiong Shenbing.

Cracks appeared one after another.

Then the entire ice mass shattered into countless tiny fragments.

The black energy inside also shattered along with the Naiqiong Shenbing.

Naiqiong Shenbing can freeze even spiritual bodies.

Now that it is broken, it will naturally be broken and annihilated along with the spirit body inside.

After Wang Ye dealt with the resentful spirit of the captain, he immediately checked the small cabin.

A smile emerged uncontrollably.

Simple, crude, vulgar wealth.

The house is full of gold coins.

Ancient Rome, Sasanian Dynasty, Maurya Dynasty...
  Wang Ye couldn't recognize that many.

They come in different sizes and shapes, and the patterns and characters clearly show that they are not from the same country.

The only similarity is that the save state is quite good.

Gold is inherently stable.

It has been buried underground for thousands of years, but when it is dug up it still makes you blind.

The gold coins in the sunken ship were not disturbed by organisms such as shellfish and coral, and were well preserved.

The gold coins were packed in several large wooden boxes.

The boxes were all broken and many were scattered on the ground.

Wang Ye kept putting these gold coins into the system space.

The feeling of picking up gold coins all over the ground... is really great.

Wang Ye knew that these gold coins could not be calculated according to the value of the metal.

Rich and wealthy people in the West also like to collect these well-preserved ancient gold coins.

Moreover, the source of the gold coins from the sunken ship can be considered quite clean.

The best way to maximize profits is to put them in major auction houses in batches, and then put some in Uncle Ming's store in Xiangjiang.

With so many gold coins, Wang Ye could feed Wang Ye for decades if goods worth millions were released a year.

Wang Ye used his Sky Eye skill.

A golden light flashed in his eyes.

Double pupils appeared, and the pupils turned into yin and yang eyes and slowly rotated.

not enough.

The energy emanating from the cabin is not just these gold coins.

Sure enough, Wang Ye soon found another smaller box in the corner.

It's full of gems.

Ruby, sapphire, emerald, cat's eye, diamond and more.

Wang Ye discovered that after holding these gems in his hands, he could actually absorb the national fortune value.

In terms of luck value alone, Wang Ye absorbed almost a thousand points.

After he thoroughly cleaned the ship, he replaced it with another sunken ship that also emitted special energy.

The next ship is a ship that is about the same age as the previous one and has a history of nearly a thousand years.

It just doesn't look like the style in the Dashi area.

But it has a strong Byzantine style.

Wang Ye didn't understand for a moment.

As the afterglow of the ancient Roman Empire, if the ships of the Byzantine Empire wanted to sail to the Coral Spiral area, wouldn't they have to bypass the Cape of Good Hope?
  If not, where did this ship come from?
  The Suez Canal had not yet opened.

But it only took less than a minute for Wang Ye to solve the problem.

Leave it alone!
  As long as there's good stuff on it.

At first glance, there are a lot of good things on this ship.

Definitely a Byzantine treasure ship.

After doing some searching, Wang Ye could not help but feel more favorable towards the ancient Western maritime merchants.

Yes, it's all gold.

How obsessed are these ghost guys with gold? A lot of gold and silverware and a large number of gold coins were added to Wang Ye's system space.

The most precious thing on this ship is a crown.

It was obviously made of pure gold, with a large number of pearls and precious stones inlaid on it.

Top with a cross.

The only regret is that the cross is crooked.

It can be said that the flaws do not hide the advantages.

But when Wang Ye picked up the crown, his hand trembled and he almost dropped it.

Wang Ye is also a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and has seen countless rare treasures.

However, Wang Ye was still startled when the system prompt sound came.

"Congratulations to the host for winning the Great Crown of St. Stephen and gaining 1000 points of national luck."

This is the first time that Wang Ye has absorbed so much luck value from Western gadgets.

What shocked Wang Ye even more was the origin of this crown.

He doesn't know much about Western history.

But I have still heard the name of a country.

Austro-Hungarian Empire.

This empire, which was once a county beauty, was once very powerful.

And it also played a very big role in the world structure during World War I.

On the emblem of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, there is a crown with a crooked cross.

The legend about this great crown of St. Stephen is widely spread in the West, especially in the original territory of the Ogo Empire.

According to legend.

The crooked cross was not replaced.

An important reason.

It's because there are three very small fragments of the True Cross on it.

This matter cannot be discussed in detail, and it is not easy for Wang Ye to think about it in detail.

Anyway, the significance of this crown even exceeds that of the Austro-Hungarian Emperor himself.

But why does this crown appear inside a coral spiral.

It was confusing to be inside a Byzantine-style shipwreck.

According to Wang Ye, the corrosion of this ship was probably thousands of years old.

Even if Wang Ye made a mistake in judgment, or there was something on the ship that could accelerate its decay.

Then this ship is at least more than five hundred years old.

It doesn't match the era when the Great Crown last appeared.

The only thing that can be explained is.

This is true.

Wang Ye twitched the corner of his mouth again.

The cultural significance of this thing has no appeal to Wang Ye at all.

It’s just that it makes sense to Westerners.

Get some hype.

This St. Stephen's crown can cause a bloody storm in Western auctions, which is definitely much greater than the twelve zodiac bronze beasts that Wang Ye has experienced.

Just such a thing, it’s not too much to auction it for hundreds of millions of dollars, right?
  Is it too much?
  What was the auction price of the beast capital back then?

Wang Ye suddenly felt like taking revenge.

Reverse blackmail is really fun.

He carefully placed the big crown in the system space.

This thing is like a time bomb.

Wang Ye happily came out of the ship and began to search other sunken ships.

Most of the treasure on the sunken ship is in decay.

Seawater is very corrosive.

Except for stable metals like gold, other treasures cannot be preserved for a long time.

The stuff on other ships isn't as explosive.

Except for gold and silverware, other treasures are basically of little value.

Wang Ye searched quickly.

In a short time, most of the sunken ships had been plundered.
