Chapter 1087: The Paradise of Life Under the Sea
Driven by the all-wet thruster, Ye Tian and the others were like a few smart fish, swimming freely in the ocean, approaching the sunken ship at the bottom of the sea step by step.
The depth of the dive is increasing, and the outline of the wreck at the bottom of the sea is becoming clearer and clearer.
Through the three towering masts on the ship, its relatively small size, and other features from its external contours, Ye Tian quickly judged the type of pirate ship and the age it came from!
The more important basis for judging is the light that this pirate ship presents in his eyes!
It was a dazzling orange glow, very beautiful! By the intensity of the light, it is known that this pirate ship is from the late 16th century and has been sleeping at the bottom of the sea for nearly 300 years!
As for the fact that this pirate ship is the car of the famous pirate, it is unknown for the time being, and you may only know if you look at it up close and explore it!
For Ye Tian, the distance in front of him is not an obstacle at all!
As long as he wants, he can turn on the perspective at any time, see through this underwater wreck, and thoroughly understand everything inside and outside this pirate ship.
However, he did not do that, to see through this pirate ship that had been sleeping under the sea for more than 300 years!
The dazzling pirate treasures are fascinating and crazy, but the process of discovering them is also a wonderful thing and a pleasure!
Besides, now that there is time, why rush and choose to look through directly? Why not let go of your body and mind and enjoy the fun of exploring treasures!
After making a basic judgment, Ye Tian immediately chuckled and said:
"Guys, this is a Caravel sailing ship with a displacement of about a hundred tons, and the Caravel sailing ship was popular in the fifteenth and seventeenth centuries!
It can be seen from this that this pirate ship has been sunk at the bottom of this sea for at least 200 years, or even longer, but I don't know that this pirate ship belongs to the famous pirate!
It would be great if this belonged to the pirate ship of the English pirate explorer and the famous navigator Sir Drake, who landed on Cocos Island in 1578 and was the first famous pirate to land on the island.
It was through his mouth that Cocos Island became known to the world, and quickly became an arsenal and depot for many pirates on the Pacific coast, as well as the best starting point and logistics base!"
"If it's Sir Drake's pirate ship, it must be of great significance, and it is of great archaeological value, even if there is no gold or silver treasure on board, it is a treasure of great value in itself!"
Cole's voice came through the headphones, and he listened to it with excitement.
"That's right! If it can be proved that this is Sir Drake's pirate ship, it will cause quite a stir, and Professor Douglas and Professor Delgado Gado must be crazy with joy!"
Ye Tian said jokingly, his tone was very relaxed.
The other three were the same, all enjoying the treasure and the picturesque scenery around them, not paying any attention to the ships moored in the distance.
While talking, everyone dived another five or six meters.
At this time, they were already at a depth of about forty meters below the surface of the sea, and they were only a dozen meters from the bottom of the sea!
The silhouette of the pirate ship that sank to the bottom of the sea was completely visible to them, and it was close at hand!
Although the water around Cocos Island is very clear and the sunlight can penetrate deeply, at this depth, the visibility is also reduced a lot, and the scenery from ten meters away is not clear, and there are more shadows!
"Guys, turn on the lights of the full wet thruster and diving flashlight to illuminate this seabed! It's easy to move! It's also good for safety, who knows what's hidden at the bottom of the sea!"
As he spoke, Ye Tian pressed the light button of the all-wet thruster, and then turned on the button of the diving flashlight!
He has two diving flashlights strapped to his left and right forearms, and there is also a diving flashlight on his left and right shoulders, chest, and top of his head.
This time, he turned on only the flashlights on the left and right forearms, and the others were not turned on, so that his arms pointed there, and the light of the flashlight would follow there, like an arm finger!
"Okay, Steven"
Cole's voices came from the headphones, and they responded one after another.
In response, they also turned on the lights of the fully wet thrusters and diving flashlights.
In the next moment, four powerful beams of light with the thickness of the bowl mouth suddenly appeared in this clear sea water, illuminating the sea water and the bottom of the sea in front of Ye Tian and them!
Immediately afterward, eight thinner beams of light lit up one after another, shining straight at the bottom of the sea, shining directly at the bottom of the sea, shining on the pirate ship lying across the bottom of the sea.
Where the lights passed, a beautiful underwater world immediately appeared in front of Ye Tian's eyes, and they were completely attracted in an instant!
Formed by a volcanic eruption, Cocos Island is a small island with undulating peaks and forests, as well as the surrounding seabed, with towering peaks and ravines, and a very varied topography!
Ye Tian's location at this time is a relatively flat seabed, which is rare to see around Cocos Island, which is also the reason why Weaver Bay can become an ideal anchorage!
Compared with the land, the world hidden under the sea is more colorful, more vivid, full of life and vitality, like a paradise of life!
From a high vantage point, this seabed is a small undulating hill, completely covered with beautiful corals of various colors, and there are so many of them that they can be found almost all over the hills.
These corals are formed in different ages and come in different colors, ranging from white, blue, black, to gem-quality reds, pinks, and even the very rare orange-red.
Together, they form a colorful mountain that radiates a mesmerizing light, providing the perfect habitat and hiding place for the marine life that lives here!
On this coral-made hill, beautiful flowers bloom in all kinds of flowers, competing for beauty! The variety and color are as beautiful as the most beautiful garden in the world.
In addition to corals and flowers, there is a lot of seaweed.
Some seaweeds are several meters tall or even more than ten meters high, and they gather together like underwater forests, gently swaying in the seawater, and their vitality is extremely vigorous.
Others are relatively low, clinging to rocks and sand on the bottom of the sea, or to corals of all colors, like clumps of seabed shrubs.
The pirate ship lying at the bottom of the sea has been completely covered with corals and seaweed in many places due to the effect of time, and has long been turned into a paradise for marine life.
The entire ship has a small area of the main deck that is exposed, with no corals and seaweeds in sight, which is supposed to be done by Costa Ricans, in order to make money for tourists, of course.
The view is beautiful, heart-warming and intoxicating!
But the most beautiful and vivid are the various marine creatures that swim freely between corals and seaweed, and shuttle back and forth in shipwrecks.
There are many kinds of marine life living here, and in this small area alone, there are many beautiful fish, sea crabs, squid, lobsters, sea urchins, and so on!
For them, this is the paradise of life, their home, they can swim freely, they can coexist in harmony with every neighbor, and share this piece of world!
It is a world of tranquility and a vibrant world, pregnant with colorful life and showing the most fundamental meaning of life.
But because of Ye Tian's arrival, the tranquility here was instantly shattered.
A few powerful beams swept by, and the seabed immediately became agitated!
The moment they felt the bright light, all the fish quickly shook their tail fins and swam lightning towards the nearest coral reef, seaweed forest, or the shipwreck on the bottom of the sea, ready to hide from the danger!
The other sea creatures, which were relatively slow, but who were able to move and sense changes in light and surroundings, also moved and swam towards their nearest hiding place.
In the process, they unleashed their defensive weapons and displayed a tough stance to warn of possible enemies.
The group of beautiful fish that accompanied Ye Tian and them were also frightened by the sudden appearance of the light, and immediately dispersed and swam in all directions!
In the blink of an eye, the fish around Ye Tian and them escaped, leaving only the endless sea water!
The situation at the bottom of the sea is the same, those leisurely and slowly swimming fish before disappeared in an instant, leaving only some crustaceans, dancing their teeth and claws on the bottom of the sea, fleeing in a hurry!
