The Rise of Australia

Chapter 129 Breaking Down Doors and Tearing Down Houses for Transportation (Happy New Year!)

As expected, after the hollow stone bricks were pried open, a dark corridor was exposed inside.

"Those with a thin figure, go inside to see what's going on." Barty Crouch ordered.

Under Barty Crouch's order, the two thinner men immediately packed up their things and went down with two burning torches.

At this time, the defense forces in the temple had been cleared, and since no one usually came to this building, there was no need to worry about the torches being exposed.

What's more, the burning torches can also better determine the situation in the corridor. If oxygen is scarce, the torches will stop burning, and they can also give the two people an early warning.

After waiting for a long time, the two people who went down finally climbed up, wiped the sweat and said; "Director, this is a complete corridor below, one side leads to the back of this statue, and the other side is some secret rooms deeper. The doors of the secret rooms are all made of huge stones, and they are estimated to be several dozen centimeters thick."

Barty Crouch nodded calmly, and even when he heard the solid huge stone door, he was not panicked at all.

"Prepare for the explosion. Since civilized means cannot open those stone doors, then we can only use violent means." Barty Crouch said with a smile.

One of the compulsory courses for intelligence personnel is the production of explosives. Because of the mission this time, Barty Crouch specially brought a lot of explosives in advance, just in case.

Continue to enlarge the pried hole to facilitate more people and explosives to enter.

After walking along the long corridor for a long time, Barty Crouch and his party finally saw the stone door of the secret room clearly.

Touching the material of the stone door, Barty Crouch took out a hand drill, and several people quickly drilled several holes of varying depths in time and space, and then placed small explosives in these holes.

In order to ensure their own safety, these explosives are all delayed explosives, and the explosion time is as long as three minutes.

This period of time is also enough for everyone to evacuate from the hole to prevent themselves from being buried by the waves generated by the explosion.

Boom!

With a few muffled sounds, the ground began to vibrate slightly, and then returned to calm.

After waiting for a while and making sure there was no movement, Barty Crouch led everyone back into the corridor.

When they arrived at the door of the secret room, the stone door had been blown into many pieces, which was much easier to deal with than the intact stone door.

When everyone moved all the broken stones, a dark secret room appeared in front of everyone.

"Director, what are you waiting for? There must be a lot of accumulated treasures in it. If we give these treasures to His Highness, we should all get medals, right?" A subordinate said impatiently.

They didn't care how much treasure there was in the secret room, and they knew that they couldn't spy on it.

But if they successfully handed these treasures to Arthur, would it mean that they could get a medal?

"What are you in a hurry for? Have you forgotten what you learned before?" Barty Crouch scolded, and then threw the torch in his subordinate's hand.

The burning torch was extinguished in an instant, like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the cheering mood of everyone.

"This secret room is completely sealed, and there is a lack of oxygen inside. Everyone, watch out, we will go in later." Barty Crouch nodded and ordered.

This temple has a history of hundreds of years. Who knows what can be stored?

Barty Crouch dared not imagine the wealth of the ancient Indian princely state. You know, the prosperity of the British Empire was largely supported by India.

After waiting for almost half an hour, the torches would not go out when thrown in, so everyone entered one after another.

Raising the torch, the magnificent scene in the secret room made everyone drop their jaws. Even Barty Crouch, who was well-informed, was a little surprised at this time.

Gold coins, ornaments, and tableware made of gold were piled up like mountains, and another pile was a large number of colorful gems.

Among the two piles of treasures, the most conspicuous was a golden elephant that was more than one person tall. Some people even tried to lift it, but they couldn't lift the giant elephant at all.

A large number of wooden boxes were piled up around the secret room. Although they were covered with dust, they seemed unable to block the golden light leaking from the treasure inside.

"Oh my God, how many medals are these?" Everyone was already thinking of three medals, and even began to plan to show off to the people around them after getting the medals.

"Hurry up and let everyone come in and move these things out. Also, don't think about it anymore. As a qualified intelligence officer, it's best not to disclose the various merit medals you have won casually, not to mention that you haven't won them yet!" Barty Crouch interrupted everyone's fantasy and ordered.

Everyone took action to transport these treasures outside the cave entrance, and then transferred them from the cave entrance to the carriage.

In order to facilitate the transportation of this batch of treasures, they could only say sorry to everyone in the temple.

Under Barty Crouch's order, everyone turned their knives to all the monks in the temple and asked them to meet their beloved Buddha.

In order to facilitate the transportation of these golden beads, everyone even dismantled the gates and various buildings of the temple, just to find materials for convenient transportation.

The corridor connects to six secret rooms. Although the amount of treasures in the six secret rooms is different, the total number is definitely a huge number.

Even though more than a hundred strong intelligence officers were mobilized, this large-scale transport operation lasted from night to dawn.

In fact, not all the treasures in the temple were transported. There were also some silver utensils and ornaments, which were directly discarded by everyone because they took up more space and were not valuable.

However, discarding is also a science. Everyone threw all the silver and utensils near the temple, which was enough to cause looting and competition among the people around.

In any case, at least it can create a chaos here and delay the attention of the British Empire.

By the time the local princely states and the British really noticed this temple, Barty Crouch had already left India on a transport ship.

Everyone did not dare to count the treasures on the road, so they could only speed up the transportation, arrive in Australia, and find a safe place.

Several fleets disguised as the Australian transport fleet took away these carriages and intelligence officers in batches, and just like when they came, they first detoured to other surrounding areas and countries, and then turned to Australia.

The entire operation and transportation took a lot of effort, starting from September 3rd until September 20th, when the fleet arrived at Sydney Harbour in a mighty manner.

Second update, please support! Happy New Year to everyone!
