Milan is standing in front of the door for a long time.

Prolechne Suncao Basiavalo and Stubove Prekrivene-Mahovinum

creates a secret atmosphere.

Poridniega, Yovana, and Nikola looked at the map.

Veteria knows how to escape the past through the old holes.

Milan was an archaeologist, but not only that,

it was a lava-covered cloud.

This was a special day.

8th of March, a day when he decided to open the historical ones.

But here he was and the other team,

arrived at a great location.

He began to get close to the open in the middle of the map.

We have to deal with Milan,

who is looking at his friends.

Yovana is an archaeologist and a scientist,

a climber's head.

Nikola is an archaeologist,

Sermilmi was a scientist and historian.

When I came to the conclusion,

two thousand years ago,

Milan knew that he had to find his instinct.

In the morning, my voice told me not to get away.

Until they passed through the ruins,

they heard the voices of the rival team

who were nowhere to talk.

By the way, Milan and the lead team of the other tunnel.

Milan was an archaeologist,

but Milan was an archaeologist.

Here, from one corner,

it could be a hidden passage.

They came to a place where he was looking at his friends.

You see, Milan was about to reach the old stone.

At one point, the cycle of the open-air passage was opened.

It was risky, but Milan was about to try to eat.

Artifacts in the morning, Reka and Yusha.

Yovana and Nikola were followed,

living in the city of Stabilon-Tlu.

On the fifth floor.

In this secret passage,

there was an archaeologist.

This was a secret passage to the open-air passage.

Milan was surprised.

They were surprised.

The sound of the rival team was not there.

They took the archaeologist and went to the village.

Kassnje Togdana, where his success was made,

Milan in the mentor is coming.

He was surprised.

Your instinct was correct, Reka is quiet.

Milan taught a very important lesson.

Togdana is his instinct to discover and recognize.

It is free to discover new horizons.

Milan is sitting on a new sign of security and independence.

Sirmijum was at the beginning of his attack,

only after a long journey.

The story was still one secret,

but one new dream was discovered.

The perception and the importance were defeated.

Let's take another listen.

Listen closely to any parts you may have missed.

Milan was standing in front of the ruins of ancient Sirmijum.

Milan was standing in front of the ruins of ancient Sirmijum.

The spring sun bathed the moss-covered columns,

creating a mysterious atmosphere.

During the day, Yovanna and Nikola looked upon the map.

Next to him, Jovanna and Nikola were looking at a map.

The wind carried whispers of the past to the old arches.

Milan was an archaeologist but not just that.

He was a hunter of hidden treasures.

Today was a special day.

March 8th, the day he decided to make a historic discovery.

But there was another team, rivals already at the site.

Rumor had it they were close to discovering a valuable artifact.

Rumor had it they were close to discovering a valuable artifact.

We need to act quickly, Milan said, looking at his friends.

Jovana, odlučna kao juvak, klimnula je glavam.

Jovana, determined as always, nodded her head.

Nikola je pažlivo pratio svaki pokret.

Nikola carefully followed every move.

Cermia was a labyrinth of history.

The stone floors and walls told tales older than 2000 years.

Milan knew he had to follow his instinct.

An inner voice told him not to give up.

As they passed through the ruins, they heard the voices of the rival team conversing somewhere in the distance.

Quick, said Milan and led the group into another tunnel.

The darkness was thick, but Milan felt a strong sense.

There behind one corner there could be a hidden passage.

They reached a wall that looked different.

Look, Milan said, touching the old stones.

In one place, a brick had fallen off, revealing a narrow passage.

It was risky, but Milan felt he had to try.

The artifact is inside, he said and entered.

Jovana and Nikola followed, carefully stepping on the unstable ground.

The tension was rising.

The appearance of a chest in that secret space led them to the artifact.

It was a glass vessel adorned with lavish engravings.

Milan sighed, they had succeeded.

The sound of the rivals footsteps quickly faded.

They took the artifact and emerged to safety.

Later that day, as they celebrated their success, Milan's mentor approached, admiring his bravery.

Your instinct was right, he said quietly.

Milan learned an important lesson.

That day, by trusting his instinct, he gained both respect and recognition.

It was free to discover new horizons.

Milan felt a new strength of security and determination.

Free to discover new horizons, Milan felt a new strength of security and determination.

Sermiyum became the starting point of his new confident path.

History felt a new secret, but it opened a new sense of peace.

History kept another secret, but also revealed a new meaning for Milan.

Friendship and bravery prevailed.
