064, opportunity

Before Chris could send back Queen Jane's information, Emma took the lead in giving Talos a surprise from a small discovery in the recent process of the Black Sea's strict rectification of adventurer organizations and mercenary groups.

These adventurer organizations and mercenary groups were in some way implicated by Talos, because they accidentally activated the bloodline that night to advance to the first rank.

Although the true truth is known to only four people, there is inevitably a little bit of news circulating that the Black Sea Lord and her husband are hurrying to Talos' room.

Sandra didn't say anything about it, and took advantage of the situation to make a public statement, declaring that the Evelyn Palace had encountered a shameful thief, and therefore needed a large-scale reorganization of all adventurer organizations and mercenary groups throughout the Black Sea.

As the ruler of the Black Sea in all senses, Sandra's will was quickly implemented, and the Black Sea Council passed two laws of a regional nature in the fastest time, namely the "Adventurer and Mercenary Registration Act" and the "Adventurer Organization and Mercenary Group Management Law".

It doesn't matter if the Evelyn is not subjected to shameful thieves, what matters is that two new laws are born that carry the will of the Black Sea lords.

In the past, as long as these adventurers registered with the adventurer's guild and obtained professional information and certificates, they could freely venture around the country.

From now on, however, the Black Sea can be an exception.

According to the latest law, all adventurers (who have a profession of adventuring everywhere, exploring ruins, etc.) and mercenaries (who have a profession of accepting and completing employers' tasks) in the Black Sea must register with the Adventurer Mercenary Security Assessment and Information Administration.

Adventurer organizations and mercenary groups with headquarters or branches located in the Black Sea must also take the initiative to file tax returns every month in addition to completing the filing of organizational information.

This is the first time that the Naga Kingdom has taxed the existence of adventurer organizations and mercenary groups themselves, and it is a completely new tax, somewhat similar to the corporate income tax of the previous life.

However, if this will force some adventurer organizations and mercenary groups that are unwilling to pay additional taxes to other regions, Talos is a little worried.

Because he couldn't figure it out, the young Naga naturally didn't know that this was the last piece of the puzzle for Sandra to effectively dominate the Black Sea in various realms.

"So, that's what you call a surprise?" Talos said to Emma through the magic net, playing with a gold coin that had just been handed to him by the Black Sea Knight.

As the future Lord of the Black Sea, Emma, the heir, spends the rest of her time next to Sandra learning how to manage the Black Sea effectively, and if necessary, leaving the Evelyn Palace to take care of things herself.

"My advice is, look at it first. ”

Talos held the coin up in front of his eyes, and upon closer inspection, it did not have the obverse portrait that a normal gold coin should have—usually the head of the king or queen of the country, and possibly the head of the pope in special times—with a pattern on both sides.

On one side is a chain gate with a crown adorned with a crown, and on the other is a stake with growth rings carved with roses, green onions, thistles and clover.

"I kind of regret that I didn't study the two courses of "Heraldry" and "Noble Symbols" before, otherwise I can basically judge the deep meaning of the gold coin design, who will tell me what the green onion symbolizes?"

For example, the crown often represents royalty and glory, and the two crossed keys are basically exclusive to the church, symbolizing that the road to the kingdom of God and the power to open the gates of heaven are all in the hands of the church.

Talos frustrated himself as he searched for something in his mind, finding nothing to be aware of, before he unexpectedly found a line of text on the cylindrical surface of the outer edge of the coin, which looked like normal currents and ripples in the ocean floor, and could not be detected without looking closely.

To Talos's surprise, they were actually the kind of script unique to the ancient Sadinian dynasty!

Young Naga vaguely knew why Emma said that the coin was a surprise and that it had something to do with the ancient Sadinian dynasty.

"Blindfolding...... Freely...... Guidelines...... Destiny...... Stars ......"

Talos struggled to translate the text against the information Chris had sent him last time.

"Guided by freedom, fate ends with the falling of the stars—what an arrogant sentence!"

Sainz's stars are not the same as those of Talos's previous life, they do mean stars in the sky, and occasionally represent other lower planes outside of Sainz's world, but more often than not, the stars refer to the kingdom of the gods.

- Corresponding to the lower plane, there is a giant spherical object that is unique to the Sainz world, called the upper star, and is also called the supreme plane in the "Plane Science".

Another layer of falling stars means that the kingdom of God fell to the earth, and the gods in the sky fell together.

With this blasphemy inscribed on the currency in circulation, Talos now admires the courage and pride of Urban I - not everyone has the courage to challenge the gods, it is almost the enemy of the world!

"I've found the secret of the gold coin, you must know where it came from, right?"

"I know, ready to receive documents. ”

Awesome, Talos said to himself, and clicked on the file to see where the coins came from.

Humans and other sapient races living on land may never be able to imagine what strange things the Naga would pick up at the bottom of the sea, shipwrecks, weapons, or ...... Corpse.

It was the corpse of a pirate, with his hands tied to a boulder behind his back and sinking into the sea and drowning.

Of course, the possibility of a partner is not ruled out, after all, sinking into the sea is a common means for pirates to deal with traitors or rivals.

Several members of the Giant Squid Mercenary Group found the pirate's corpse on their way back from their mission and found a gold coin from the other party.

It just so happened that the giant squid mercenary group was included in the list of illegal organizations because it had not completed the filing of organizational information for more than fifteen days, and fell into the hands of Emma in the process of being investigated.

Originally, there was a very hidden Nightmare Curse on the coin, but it was dispelled before it could be handed over to Talos.

According to the descriptions of the members of the Giant Squid Mercenary Regiment, the pirate has an identical tattoo and pattern on his body and clothes, and an evil dragon is entrenched on an anchor made of white bone.

With the help of Evelyn's vast information network, Emma soon learns that the pirate is one of the pirate members led by the madwoman Juana.

"Mad Juana...... Pirate...... Gold...... Get out of the Black Sea!"

In an instant, Talos realized that his opportunity had come, a clue to follow the gold coins to explore the secrets of the ancient Sadinian dynasty, and by the way, to see if there was a slim chance of solving the hidden danger of the soul fire.

"Emma, I have an idea-"

"My advice is not to think about it. ”
