Chapter 1064 Countdown to the release of Legacy of the Creator
Master Qin left four art students to discuss the employment mission with Sir Zweig, and he followed President Sherlock into the office.
Because the foreign heroes from Transia joined the Explorers Guild the same way as the Steam Lords, all the procedures were prepared. The only problem was that this time there were so many "a few hundred million" people who applied for membership.
"Huh? You want to prepare a quota of 10,000 people at once?"
The old President Sherlock, who wore halfling glasses, was a very particular person. He even took out the tobacco he bought from the New World to share with Old Qin. But when Old Qin told the number of members, the pipe in Old Sherlock's hand was all gone.
Almost fell to the ground.
He pushed up his glasses and said doubtfully:
"To be honest, after the contact between the two sides, many of my tribe are guessing the number of you foreigners. According to our previous conclusion based on the analysis of the military supplies you need, your number should be between 5,000 and 5,000.
Between 7000.
But I didn't expect that you would actually get more than expected after multi-party calculations.
It seems that the connection between you and Transia is more complicated than we thought.
However, I have only prepared a big list of 7,000 people here, so I still need to make a separate list of your information and hand it over to a dedicated person for safekeeping. If there are 3,000 more people, it is too late to make membership cards now."
"It's okay, President, my compatriots can wait. Patience is our greatest virtue."
Mr. Qin tasted the old halfling's excellent quality tobacco, blew out smoke rings comfortably, spread his hands and said:
"Our group has its own internal system, and we will not immediately hand over the official adventurer's identity card to each of our companions. According to the plan of Governor Murphy and the Ministry of Military Affairs of Transia, my companions will complete the Black Iron
Before the trial, it was still too dangerous for them to become a mercenary running around the continent and participating in various bizarre events.
In addition, I came here today to convey the invitation from Archon Miriam.
We hope that the Explorers Guild can establish a branch in Scarlet Castle, which will be managed by Transians and maintain information exchange with the headquarters. Mr. Old Flywheel is willing to serve as the representative of the Explorers Guild in Transia. If he cannot, Mrs. Taylor
I’m also willing to do the work for you.”
"Tyler? Taylor Ilsa? The 'Black Widow' who engages in black market business?"
The old halfling explorer Sherlock, who was obviously very energetic, raised his eyebrows and said in amazement:
"When I returned from my investigation into the ruins of the elves of Castile, I heard that Mrs. Taylor mysteriously disappeared in the city. I thought she had quit, but I didn't expect that lady to turn her black market business around.
Went to Transia.
It is indeed a miraculous place that has risen. It can make an outstanding and ruthless businessman like Mrs. Taylor look at you differently. It seems that I really need to go to your place in person.
But if Taylor is willing to show his face as the branch president, then I have no problem with that.
Since someone as steady and cunning as her took the initiative to make this request, I think she must have made preparations for the branch in private. If I rashly sent someone else there, I'm afraid they would have to end up somewhere that should be safe halfway.
Encountered an inexplicable 'bandit robbery'.
Therefore, I will simply transport your membership cards directly to Transia, and then you will be responsible for issuing them yourself. I will send some capable old employees from the headquarters to help you establish the local system."
"That would be perfect, Your Excellency."
Master Qin smiled.
He looked at the old halfling in front of him who was always smiling and very friendly.
Although he is nominally the honorary lifetime president of the Explorers Guild, and has indeed done such great things as exploring the New World and completing a global trip, the real important identity of Lord Sherlock is the affairs advisor of the Council of Steam Lords.
And the reason why he is just an advisor is because in the past three hundred years, this old guy has served as an official lord for two terms. In his own words, he has become tired of politics and has fulfilled his obligations to his tribe. Now he only
I want to devote the rest of my life to a career of unlimited adventure.
This old gentleman is a real legendary figure in Port Chardeau. His wide network of contacts in this city and this peninsula is even more terrifying than Master Minx. What is even more rare is that he has extremely broad experience and has basically been there.
Every place on the continent is somewhat famous.
To use a slightly more solemn description, in the pool of Port Chardeau, old Sherlock Lacey was the real "giant crocodile" hidden under the water.
Because of this, Mr. Qin will come in person for today's "Initiation Ceremony" on behalf of the players. In addition to submitting the foreigner's application for membership, Mr. Qin also has a second thing to discuss with old Sherlock.
"It's getting late, Your Excellency, so let's discuss my second mission."
Mr. Qin stood up, took out a very special card from his arms and placed it on old Sherlock's table. The latter glanced at it and nodded and said:
"Little Bach's Adventure Master membership card. Being able to get this means that you have gained her trust. Tell me, what does my distant niece need from me?"
"About the possible existence of Twilight elements within the Explorers Guild!"
Old Qin took out another special calculation orb and placed it in front of Old Sherlock, and said in a serious tone:
"Little Master Bach hopes that you can take charge of this matter personally, and her original words are that everyone in a high position in this system is a suspect, so do not use anyone under your command when performing internal inspections.
.
The coldest, most professional and ruthless group of stalkers among the Transian Heroic Spirits will temporarily become a resource you can call on. When you need help or need to clear away some dangers, use this computing orb encrypted by Master Minx himself.
You can give orders to my companions."
"Oh, actually I also feel a problem."
Old Sherlock leaned back in his chair.
He picked up the pipe and held it in his mouth, looking out the window at the city being rebuilt. The gray-haired old halfling explorer said a little lonely:
“When Bach and I first joined this organization, we were still young people who didn’t know anything.
The explorers at that time were very pure, and they just wanted to explore the various secrets left in the world. However, during an occasional exploration, when we confirmed the existence of the 'Prehistoric Age' and the 'Golden Age', the Explorers Guild seemed to
Things have changed. After the news spread, many people with ulterior motives tried to sneak into our midst.
Official spies, cultural relic dealers, cultists and power seekers from various countries seem to be able to do bad things with peace of mind by wearing the skin of "adventurers".
We've been trying to keep it clear inside, but it just can't be done.
Colonel Qin, do you know why Sir Zweig and I have been hoping to block routes to the New World for many years after we completed our exploration of the New World and traveled around the world more than sixty years ago?"
Faced with this problem, Mr. Qin thought for a moment and said:
"Is it because of the 'White Devil'?"
"Yes! Those are the 'pioneers' who followed our adventurous route to the New World and then committed mischief."
Old Sherlock sighed and said:
"I have not set foot on the New World for sixty years, but I have heard about and regret everything that happened there. I once regarded the discovery of the New World as the proudest achievement of my life, but now it seems that the glory is only that
For a moment, what followed was endless slaughter, blood and death.
I am responsible for every misdeed of the white devils in the New World. If you have determined that the "twilight elements" are behind those massacres and deaths, then old man, I will do my best to help you dig out those bastards!
Those bastards who have tarnished the name of 'adventure'!
However, I am still curious.”
The old man blew out a magical ship-shaped smoke ring and said:
"Don't you have any doubt that I am one of them?"
"No, we don't doubt it."
Mr. Qin smiled and said:
"Before you noticed, our Governor had an encounter with you in the official residence of the Steam Lords Council. Believe me, if you were a member of Twilight, you would not be able to meet me as a living person.
There’s a lot of chatting and laughing here.”
"Isn't this detection method too backward? You know, Colonel Qin, just because my body is not contaminated by Chaos does not mean that my mind is also clean. I think you Transians should be more rigorous in the process of detecting Dusk."
"Well, that's a coincidence. Our Lord Governor also has some experience in peering into the soul. He personally commented that you are a glorious explorer who lives in the pain caused by others. Your hatred for the Twilight elements is so strong
, is enough for you to become a qualified 'honorary Transian'."

"This is the result of our investigation into Martink Trading Company. In the past month, our members have planned to travel to every area in the mainland that has a relationship with Martink Company and completed a tracing summary."
In the Blood Vulture Corridor of the Scarlet Castle, the leader of the Helms Rangers and the sassy hunter Ms. Effie is still wearing the simple hunting outfit and a cool green beret. She puts a sealed cowhide
The bag was handed to Murphy.
The latter opened it and glanced at it, and was immediately shocked by the thick pile of information contained in it.
How is this going?
I just casually said "Martink Trading Company has a problem", but you produced this "research report" for me within a month? Even the place of origin and family background of the new employees were included?
Depend on!
In addition to hunting dusk, you Helms Rangers also have a side job!
"I won't ask about the specific process."
Murphy put the information on the table, looked at Ms. Effie with cold eyes in front of him, and asked:
"How many were killed? How many were found? Where was the source?"
"No killing, because the employees of this company are innocent, at least the employees on the surface are innocent. There is no problem with their logistics system. They are just one of hundreds of halfling trading companies affiliated with the Explorers Guild.
one."
Effie shook her head and said:
"But it is indeed abnormal, because half of the goods it has transported in the past thirty-five years have come from the New World. However, the New World route was suspended eighteen years ago due to the storms and harassment caused by the fishmen.
Therefore we can conclude that this company is engaged in some dangerous smuggling business.
It is one of the links between the new federal United States and the forces of the old continent. The accounting records of this company are quite shocking. We used a little "torture technique" to learn the truth from several company accountants.
Over the past thirty-five years, this rather low-key but powerful company has been quietly collecting ruined settlements in the Old World and transporting them to the New World as 'pioneers' in the name of the Adventurer's Guild.
Needless to say, there must be Twilight members among them.
As for the batch of weapons and protective equipment that Dusk promised to assist the Jackals during the Genoese War, they were disguised as a batch of contraband and hidden on the island.
Even the person handling it doesn't know the inside story at all.
Either that guy was so tough that he could continue to lie after nine of his fingers were pulled out, or he was indeed innocent. By the way, don't worry about that guy and his fingers. We used natural magic to help him reattach his severed limbs.
He also gave him a generous compensation that was enough to shut him up."
"Tsk, from your gentle but bloody description, I probably know the action style of the Helms Rangers. You and us barbaric Transians are really in perfect harmony with each other.
"
Murphy nodded with a strange expression and said:
"So, the Martink Trading Company line has actually been abandoned by Dusk, right?"
"About that. The current boss of the company has not received an order to go up to the peak for more than a month. In fact, when we found him, the guy had been dead for five days. The cause of death was a heart attack, but I suspect it was
He was silenced, after all, the rich halfling had always been healthy before."
Effie stood there with a military attitude, shrugged and said:
"But it is worth noting that Martink Trading Company has seven fewer reinforced ships used to cross the Mist Sea. The news has been sent to the Blood Terror Pirates. They will take over the subsequent tracking on the ocean, but I am not sure.
I have too much hope, as this line can no longer dig out any valuable information.
Therefore, next we are going to the Elf Kingdom of Castile to join up with your Grand Duke Shani and Ms. Dragon Flame Lena to launch the final strangulation of the Witch Cult.
I need to confirm in advance, will you and your elite soldiers appear on that battlefield?"
"Of course, we are never absent from troublemaking for Dusk and preparing coffins for them."
Murphy stood up and said to Effie:
"Thank you and your subordinates for your help in the past period of time. I hope that we can maintain a good cooperative relationship in the future. In addition, I have news for you about the gray area of the Plantagenet Kingdom.
The Black Mane Faction of the Wolfsbane Clan is about to launch a war against the Wolf Vulture Faction occupying Greeny Island, and the Blood Vulture Clan will also participate, if the Hermes are interested."
"In your words, we are interested in anything that can cause trouble for King Louis and prepare a coffin for him, Your Excellency."
A smile of joy appeared on Effie's cold face that even scared Murphy, and she said:
"It's also crucial for us to master the gray areas of Greene Island. We want to make that damn sun fall, and to do that we have to lurk in the shadows beneath it.
I know why you told me this.
Please rest assured that when you need it, the Helmsians will definitely fight alongside you on Greeny Island. I have also dealt with Count Laura of the Black Mane Faction before. I will talk to her about the next thing.
Blended."
"Actually, you don't have to take such extreme measures as assassination, especially when the enemy is a country. The death of King Louis in your hands will not cause the Plantagenet Kingdom to fall apart, but will make his subjects more united.
Nothing great can be accomplished by assassination."
Murphy shook his head and said:
"I think you should seize the main contradiction. Unfortunately, I personally don't know much about politics. However, I can introduce you to some 'professionals' from other worlds. Each of them has an understanding of how to liberate oneself from the control of the enemy country."
All countries are very knowledgeable.”
"Oh? Then we really need it."
Effie's eyes lit up and she said:
"When can I meet them?"
"Now!"
Murphy looked at the time.
The next second, there was a knock on the door.
The confused Loyalty Brother was still wearing a mechanic's uniform stained with oil. He used his cool robot hand to open the door and looked at the two people in the office. He was a little confused and confused. Mr. Murphy gave him a special name called "Sun".
What is the hidden mission of "The Fall" intended to do?
But soon he learned the content of this task from Ms. Effie. Brother Zhongzhong entered the state in a second, with a simple worker attitude and an "insider" regretful tone, shook his head and said:
"No, assassination cannot solve your restoration problem, because King Louis already has a clear crown prince, and the royal party that supports him is very powerful and has an absolute advantage in the political system of the Plantagenet Kingdom.
Therefore, even if King Louis dies in your hands, he will not be able to divide the Kingdom of Plantagenet, let alone restore the ancient legal system of the Kingdom of Isa through this rude method.
If you want to divide a prosperous country, you can only adopt the method of intensifying internal conflicts. Any arbitrary intervention by external forces will only make nationalism rise and help the people unite. Fear can defeat individuals but cannot defeat an organization with a complete system.
What's more, the militarism and expansionism that King Louis is now promoting are very popular in the minds of the people.
Well, this is a little troublesome for you.
I am not a professional in this field, so I need to ask the experts from the brother departments to help me. Give me some time, Ms. Effie, a month! We will come up with a feasible plan."
Effie was obviously very interested in this matter.
She and Zhong Zhong walked out of the office and found a place to continue chatting. Murphy stood in the office and opened the cowhide bag to see the clues that Helms had found, but soon, Adele opened the door and came in.
The loyal intelligence officer reported to Murphy:
"Master, the airship to Port Chardeau is ready. The consul is sending birthday gifts into the airship. We are going to take Archduke Pablo's fleet across the Strait of Castile in Port Chardeau. It's about time to depart.
You still have three hours to make final adjustments."
"I have nothing to adjust."
Murphy shook his head and said:
"If I have to say it, it is to warm up the various contents of the new version. I plan to update the 0 plot the moment we set foot on the land of origin. This time it will be updated online, and we still have seven days to check the copy.
