And what was even more important was that, with the enhancement of the Sky Eye, Sean Knight could now see the ship brimming with loot from robberies.
Huge gold-trimmed clocks as tall as a person, half-meter-tall bronze Buddhas, massive cloisonné enamel vases, delicate Porcelain of the official kiln, as well as a large amount of valuable metals.
What surprised Sean somewhat was that none of the items looked as though they originated from any single country – there was not just royal and civilian stuff but also Shiva statues from India and various gemstones from Southeast Asia, among other things.
It seemed the plunder from those formidable armed merchant ships was far from just the strings of silver figures represented in books.
Sean first stowed all the items from one of the ship's compartments into his spatial realm before surfacing with a bronze Buddha head in hand.
