Chapter 1064 Countdown to the Release of 1062 Creator's Legacy
Chapter 1064 1062. Countdown to the release of the Creator's Legacy
Mr. 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 of Transia joined the Explorers' Guild in the way of the Steam Lord, all the procedures were prepared. The only problem was that the number of applicants this time was so "a little bit" more.
"Huh? You want to prepare 10,000 places at one time?"
President Sherlock, who wore half-man glasses, was a particular person. He even took out the tobacco he got from the New World to share with Lao Qin, but when Lao Qin said the number of people joining, the pipe in Lao Sherlock's hand almost fell to the ground.
He pushed his glasses and said doubtfully:
"To be honest, after the two sides had some contact, many of my people were guessing the number of you foreigners. According to the conclusion we came to after analyzing the military supplies you needed, your number should be between 5,000 and 7,000.
But I didn't expect that you would be more than expected after multiple calculations.
It seems that the connection between you and Transia is much more complicated than we thought.
However, I have only prepared a list of 7,000 people, and I still need to list your information separately and give it to someone to keep. There are 3,000 more people and it's too late to rush to make membership cards now."
"It's okay, President, my colleagues Fellows can wait, patience is our greatest virtue. "
Master Qin tasted the high-quality tobacco of the old halfling, blowing smoke rings comfortably, spreading 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 every companion. According to the plan of Governor Murphy and the Transian Military Affairs Department, before my companions complete the Black Iron Trial, it is 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 of Archon Miriam.
We hope that the Explorers Guild can establish a branch in Scarlet Castle, managed by Transians and connected with the headquarters Keep exchanging information here. Mr. Flywheel is willing to serve as the representative of the Explorers Guild in Transia. If he can't, Mrs. Taylor is willing to do it. "
"Taylor? Taylor Ilsa? The 'Black Widow' who does black market business?"
The energetic old halfling explorer Sherlock raised his eyebrows and said in amazement:
"When I returned from the ruins of the Castilian elves, I heard that Mrs. Taylor mysteriously disappeared in the city. I thought she had quit, but I didn't expect that the lady actually transferred her black market business to Transia.
It is worthy of being a rising miracle place. It can make a businessman as outstanding and ruthless as Mrs. Taylor look at it differently. It seems I really need to go to your place in person.
But if Taylor is willing to show up and serve as the branch president, then I have no objection.
Since she is such a steady and cunning person who has taken the initiative to make this request, I think she must have made preparations for the branch in private. If I rashly send other people there, I am afraid that they will encounter inexplicable "bandit robbery" in a place that should be very safe halfway.
So, I will simply transport your membership cards directly to Transia, and then you will be responsible for distributing them. I will send some capable old employees from the headquarters to help you establish a local system. "
"That's great, sir."
Mr. Qin smiled.
He looked at the old halfling in front of him who was always smiling and very friendly.
Although he is nominally the lifetime honorary president of the Explorers' Guild, and has indeed done great things such as exploring the New World and completing a global trip, the real important identity of Mr. Old Sherlock is the affairs consultant of the Steam Lords' Council.
The reason why he is just an advisor is that in the past three hundred years, this old guy has served as an official lord for two terms. In his own words, he has already hated politics and fulfilled his obligations to his people. Now he just wants to devote the rest of his life to an unlimited adventure.
This old man is a real legendary figure in Shardo Port. His connections in this city and this peninsula are even more terrifying than Master Minx. What's more rare is that he has a wide range of knowledge and has basically been to every famous place on the continent.
To put it in a slightly more solemn way, in the pool of Shardo Port, old Sherlock Reis is the real "crocodile" hidden under the water.
Because of this, today's "initiation ceremony" will be personally attended by Qin Ye on behalf of the players. In addition to submitting the foreigner's application for membership, Qin Ye has another thing to talk to old Sherlock.
"It's getting late, sir, 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 desk. The latter glanced at it and nodded and said:
"Little Bach's Explorer Master Membership Card. Getting this thing means you have gained her trust. Tell me, what does my distant niece need me to do for her?"
"About the possible existence of Twilight elements in the Explorers' Guild!"
Old Qin took out another special computing gem and placed it in front of Old Sherlock, saying 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 suspected, 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. 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 I first joined this organization with the old Bach, 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 maintain clarity inside, but it's simply not possible.
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! It's those 'pioneers' who followed our adventure 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'!
But I'm 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."
Master Qin said with a smile:
"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 talking and laughing here.”
"Is this detection method too backward? You know, Colonel Qin, just because my body is not contaminated by Chaos, it 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 relations 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?
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 all innocent, at least the employees on the surface are innocent. There is no problem with their logistics system. They are just one of the hundreds of halfling trading companies affiliated with the Explorers Guild. one."
Effie shook her head and said:
“But it is indeed unusual, because half of the cargo it has transported in the past thirty-five years has 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.
So we can conclude that this company is engaged in some dangerous smuggling business.
It is one of the links between the new Federal Republic of China and the forces of the Old World. The company's accounting records 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 Genoa War, they were disguised as a batch of contraband and hidden on the island.
Even the person handling it didn'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. Oh, by the way, don't worry about that guy and his fingers, we used natural magic to help him reattach his severed limbs. , and 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 sync with each other like lightning. "
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 been healthy before."
Effie stood there in a military manner, 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're 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."
There was a joyful smile 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 grasp 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 a unique understanding of how to liberate oneself from the control of the enemy country." 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” planned to do?
However, he soon 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 currently promoted by King Louis 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. 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 solution. "
Effie was obviously very interested in this matter.
She and Brother Zhong walked out of the office to find 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 don't have anything to adjust to."
Murphy shook his head and said:
"If I have to say, it is to warm up the various contents of the new version. I plan to update the 3.0 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. and various arrangements.
Get ready, Adele.
It's going to be a busy week. "
