The female captain's words were like a heavy cannonball, shaking the crowd so much that they almost jumped out of the lighthouse.
The tour guide was the first to ask: "Is that what those monsters wear on their heads when they sit in the palace all day?"
"A coronation crown?"
"Does the crown that a monarch usually wears represent a hat of supreme power?"
"It can't be a crown worn by a noble. I guess it's a hat worn by a noble. It's nothing. The crown can't be placed here."
"That must be the crown worn by the queen. It just represents her noble status. It's not very valuable."
"Ah, I understand, it must be a hat like the one on the head of the American Statue of Liberty. It also looks like a crown."
From Wang Dengming's worldview, the first thing that comes to mind is of course that it is extremely precious. There are many diamonds, orbs, etc. on it. Thinking about it will make people's eyes turn green.
The female captain had no chance to answer. The crowd was asking questions one after another, and she was stunned by the questions.
The person who said that the crown was worn by the Statue of Liberty was Helene. According to her theory and practical reasoning, how could the emperor's crown be placed in such a strange big jar and still soaked in the sea? How could it be impossible to find such a thing? You have to dig through the thick granite to enter the emperor's auxiliary tomb, side tomb chamber and main tomb chamber. Only in the sarcophagus made of yellow crystal silica can you find dazzling treasures and the glittering crown.
While everyone was having a heated discussion, a bell sounded inexplicably from the direction of the church.
Church bells sometimes ring in the morning, accompanied by choirs singing.
Some are hammered at 1 a.m. every day, like St. Paul's Cathedral, by church staff for 5 minutes.
Sometimes the time for evening prayers rings, around seven or eight o'clock.
At the current time, at ten o'clock in the evening, the church bell on Evil Witch Island actually rang.
As for the bells of the church on Evil Witch Island, Wang Dengming and these people couldn't hear them if they stayed in the castle. Their location was right above the church, and it was night again.
The sound of drums and bells echoed in the quiet night sky.
The people who responded most sincerely to the sound of the bell were the tour guides.
He made the sign of the cross and murmured: The greatest xx! There is no true god except xx!"
Others expressed dissatisfaction with the words of his prayers and ridiculed him with some obscene and insulting words compiled by linguists. They also warned that what we are talking about now is the crown, and those who do not want a piece of the pie should leave. Bar.
The tour guide had to return to reality from the sacred prayer. Perhaps among these people, he was the one who needed money most urgently.
What does the crown represent? It represents power and wealth. Even if the crown at this moment does not represent power, its wealth will make people think about it.
When everyone calmed down, Captain Espresso said: "I don't agree with you opening it. This is an extremely dangerous thing. It will kill you and put you into the coffin in the picture. This is the coffin in the picture." An object that has been cursed by a person, and inside it is a devil wearing a crown. That’s it. I can’t say any more. I’m going to rest. Good night, good night everyone.”
Espresso fled the lighthouse in terror, not even wanting to take another look at the strange object.
Sensi: "The captain was scared away by the story she told. She just put the plot she saw in the book into reality and had no worries."
Helene: "Everything should be based on scientific evidence and facts. I still believe that there will be no crown in it. This is impossible. The story of Captain Espresso's Siren is just a story. It doesn't exist in reality, so I think what she said is just a kind of personal imagination and conjecture. As for the book she talked about, it was also written by someone. She just got a legend from another person's mouth. That’s all, and the person who wrote the book heard the legends from others, one after another, that’s it.”
Scorpion: "Chief, what's your opinion?"
Wang Dengming smiled and asked: "Brother Scorpion, I want to ask you what you mean?"
"Open! Now!"
Scorpion drew his pistol.
"If it's a crown, how do you divide it?"
Senxi smiled and said: "You and the bad policeman fished it out. You and the bad policeman take the big part. If you are generous enough, give us some."
The tour guide said: "What if the devil comes out?"
Scorpion shook the gun in his hand.
"I'll make him a little transparent puppet."
His eyes fell on Wang Dengming. Easterners think differently from Westerners, and of course they focus more on meticulousness and caution.
But the adventurous mentality of Easterners is no less than that of Westerners, and tomb robbers were born in the East.
Everyone wants to open it now, so what are you waiting for?
He stuffed the jade statue into the groove, exactly!
Everyone opened their eyes wide and held their breath, not daring to let out any air for fear of blowing away the crown in one breath.
Click, a slight but heavy sound, like someone poking a person's heart with a small awl.
Helene let out a slight sigh.
A triangular metal door popped open automatically and made another squeaking sound.
Wang Dengming estimated that this thing was soaking on the bottom of the sea. It might be filled with seawater, but he didn't see a drop of seawater flowing out.
No water stains are visible on the white edges of the miniature metal doors.
He gently opened the metal door with one hand, just like opening the aluminum alloy cold door of a small refrigerator.
Gold and silver are shining, and the color of glass catches people's eyes.
"Oh my God!"
Wang Dengming carefully took out the things.
"Oh my god, it's really a crown!"
Scorpion's tense nerves began to relax, his finger had moved away from the trigger position, and the tour guide's sense of panic as he tried to escape disappeared.
There is nothing inside the object except a crown.
"There are magnets at the bottom, which can hold the crown to the base without loosening. No wonder we can't hear any sound when we shake it."
Is this a crown? Generally speaking, yes, but the crown body is relatively simple to make and does not have so many complicated structures.
The crown appears to be made of gold.
The entire crown weighs about one kilogram.
One kilogram of gold cannot be considered a huge wealth. The gold bricks Wang Dengming found in Makuku Valley weighed one kilogram each.
The most valuable thing is the large diamonds inlaid on the nine crown tips of the crown!
Sensi's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
"God, how many carats does this one have? It must be three hundred carats."
The heaviest diamond in the world is 530.02 carats. Wang Dengming estimates the weight of the nine diamonds set in the crown to be around 200 carats.
But he is not a professional either. Sensi said 300 and he said 200.
Tour guide: "It's so surprising. Where is the promised devil?"
Scorpion put away the gun and said: "Coward! There are no demons, only gold and diamonds. Sheriff, how do you divide them?"
Wang Dengming is thinking.
Scorpion: "One diamond for each of them and three for each of us. Is that fair?"
Helene: "Fairness, special fairness, I agree, I agree!"
Sensi: "It's a fair idea, I have no objection to it."
The tour guide trembled: "I don't have any objection. I suddenly picked up a big diamond ring in the middle of the night. Oh my God, I don't know what to say."
Scorpion smiled and said: "Since everyone has no objections, except for the diamonds, the rest should belong to the Sheriff. He found the clues."
Passed unanimously.
Wang Dengming suddenly turned around and said: "Who, who are you!"
