Chapter 2290: Secrets deep underground
Deep in Tomar Castle, a showroom in the Nunnery.
Accompanied by Sister Sofia and several other high-ranking monks, the Pope and the Portuguese president and his wife are visiting the antique relics displayed here to learn about the ancient history of Tomar Castle.
At this moment, there was a sudden rumbling noise from the Sarola church, like thunder, even the ground was shaking slightly.
Hearing this sound, everyone was taken aback, and turned their heads to look in the direction of Sarara Church.
The members of the Swiss Guard responsible for protecting the Pope and the security personnel protecting the President of Portugal immediately raised their alert level, watching their surroundings vigilantly, ready to respond.
Fortunately, this was just a false alarm. Before these security personnel could react further, Leonardo's voice came from the intercom.
"Don't be nervous, everyone, the series of loud noises just now came from the side of the Salola Church. The Salola Church is very safe without any problems.
In the Charolla Church, Steven found a very hidden mechanism. The sound just now was triggered when the mechanism was turned on. It has now subsided."
Hearing Leonardo’s announcement, the high-alert security personnel relaxed, they were not so nervous.
However, Leonardo’s announcement has seduced everyone’s curiosity.
"The mechanism hidden in the Charolla Church? It seems that the joint exploration team has discovered something. The guy Steven is really amazing. It seems that there is no treasure that he can't find.
Your Majesty the Pope, let’s take a look at the Charolla Church and see what Steven and the others have discovered, whether it’s the famous Templar treasure, or something else."
The Portuguese president said with a smile, his eyes full of curiosity and a hint of greed.
The President's wife standing next to him is equally curious and eager to try.
The Sister Sophia who was leading them to visit, as well as several other senior monks, were all dumbfounded, eyes full of incredible.
"Well, let's go and have a look together, I am also curious, what exactly the joint exploration team discovered, is it a famous Templar treasure? If it is, then it is naturally better.
But, based on what I know about the guy Steven, even if we are past, we may not be able to enter the Sarola church. That guy has always been very cautious and has a sense of confidentiality."
The pope smiled and nodded and said, accepting the proposal of the Portuguese president.
Following his words, everyone at the scene was awakened.
The next moment, there was an exclamation on the scene.
"How is this possible? There is actually a hidden mechanism in the Sarola church, and there is such a big movement, why has no one noticed it in the past few hundred years? It's incredible"
"Is it true that the famous treasure of the Knights Templar is really hidden in the Sarola church? It is hidden under our noses, and we don't know anything?"
It was Sister Sophia and others who exclaimed.
Leonardo’s announcement just now had such an impact on them that they couldn’t believe it.
Seeing their performance, the pope's smile can't help but deepen.
In fact, he had expected this result, otherwise he would not have traveled all the way to Portugal and Tomar to sit down.
After a while, when everyone’s emotions calmed down, Sister Sofia took the Pope, the Portuguese president and his wife, and others to the Sarara Church.
In the Sarola church, Ye Tian and the seven company employees who assisted him in opening the organ have retracted their arms, got down from the triangular ladder or stool, and stood on the floor.
On the eight walls, there were eight more square holes, and the eight pieces of granite that Ye Tian and the others pressed into the walls did not spring back.
Coming down from the triangular ladder, the first time he landed, Ye Tian said through the intercom:
" Matisse, tell the guys, let everyone be more vigilant, as before, without my permission, absolutely can't let anyone enter the Charolla Church.
We just discovered a hidden mechanism and opened it successfully. The treasure may be close at hand. At this critical juncture, I don’t want to be disturbed."
"Received, Steven, leave the security to us, there will be no problems"
Matisse's voice came from the intercom, and the answer was categorical.
Listening to their conversation, the expressions of the three Portuguese in the church of Sarola changed. They became very ugly, but helpless.
"Steven, what was the series of thunderous sounds just now? Those sounds seemed to come from deep underground, but there was no change on the floor of the Sarara Church. Why?"
Bishop Kent asked curiously, apparently a little confused about the situation.
Ye Tian turned his head to look at him, then glanced at the crowd again before smiling and saying:
"If I am not mistaken, we have just opened the door of a secret room or secret passage through the huge mechanism hidden in the wall. This secret room or secret passage is deep underground in the Sarara Church.
And the door of this secret room or secret passage is very heavy, so when it is opened, there will be thunder and vibration. It can be imagined from this point that the specifications of this secret room or secret passage must be very high.
I boldly speculated that there might be a huge underground palace hidden deep underground in the Charolla Church. As early as the twelfth century, the Knights Templar secretly hollowed out the belly of this hill.
There is a series of thunder from deep underground, why is there no change on the ground? It's very simple. The reason why Guardim Pais built the Sarola Church here may be to hide secrets deep underground.
If we want to enter the secret room or secret passage, or even the underground palace deep underground, we can only break through the ground of the Sarola Church. I'm sure the path to the deep underground is just below the floor of the prayer house."
said, Ye Tian stretched his hand to the prayer room in the middle of the church.
Following the direction of his fingers, everyone on the scene looked at the prayer room, and everyone's eyes were extremely hot and full of expectation.
"Everyone, let's go over and uncover this secret that has been hidden for more than 800 years, and see what can be gained? Is it a huge surprise or nothing!"
Ye Tian smiled and said loudly, and walked over to the prayer room first.
Behind him, the others followed immediately.
Just two steps out, Barbosa suddenly said:
"Steven, what about the eight crusader knight swords hidden in the wall? Are you going to take them out? Now can you talk about the structure and trigger mechanism of the huge mechanism in the church wall?"
Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately looked back at the church wall behind him, then said with a light smile:
"The eight crusader knight swords hidden in the wall must be of very good texture and have been treated with rust prevention, otherwise they would not be able to function until now and be able to trigger the mechanism smoothly.
To be sure, those crusader knight swords are valuable antique artifacts, maybe they are weapons used by some famous Templar knights, but I don't plan to take them out of the wall.
It is too difficult, and it is necessary to break through the wall to take out the eight crusader knight swords. I don't want to destroy this ancient church. More importantly, our goal is treasure.
If you want to take out the eight crusader knight swords, that's okay. I am happy to see it. As for the structure and trigger mechanism of the huge mechanism in the wall, I can only talk about it based on speculation.
According to my guess, there is a stone pillar that can move up and down inside the eight pieces of granite. When we push the outside piece of granite into the wall, it will squeeze the stone pillar inside the wall.
Under the action of external force, the stone pillar began to descend, pressing on the hilt of the crusader knight sword inside the wall~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and then pressed the crusader knight sword down so that the tip of the sword touched the metal below Baton.
After the metal rod is under the force, it then acts downwards. When the eight metal rods are pressed down together, it will trigger the mechanism hidden deeper underground, opening the heavy door deep underground.
This is the structure and trigger mechanism of that huge organ in the wall, it can be said to be very subtle! Of course, this is just my guess. Whether it is accurate or not can be known only by breaking through those walls."
The voice fell, and there was an exclamation immediately.
"Wow! This mechanism is too complicated. What is even more exaggerated is that after a long period of more than 800 years, it can still function and is still so sensitive!"
"Guardim Pais painstakingly designed such a mechanism to hide what secret? As you can imagine, this secret must be no small thing!"
amidst the exclamation, everyone has walked into the prayer room in the center of the church in Sarara.
The first time they walked into the prayer room, everyone looked at the ground, their eyes glowing like electricity.
Almost without exception, everyone here wants to see through the ground directly, through the granite slabs on the ground, to see the depths of the ground and see what kind of shocking secrets are hidden in the depths.
The only exception was Ye Tian. After entering the prayer room, he first glanced at the ground quickly, and then looked at the wall of this octagonal prayer room and the circular dome above!
