The bustling and lively Aegean City was once a run-down village. When Bradley, the king of the Empire, founded the country, he took a fancy to the geographical location here. It is close to the Savage Forest to the north and the Cool Empire to the south. It is close to the Woxing Sea to the east and the Fertile Forest to the west.

King Bradley was entrenched here, and livestock farming arose. Lead the army to hunt the monsters in the wild forest, and use the beast core and animal skins to sell for money. Gradually, the whole area was brought up.

With the steady development of the economy, the small village, which was originally poor and shabby, gradually extended into a large town. Later, King Bradley developed other areas to form the city of Aeyue.

When the Aegean Empire was established, Emperor Allen once again changed the city of Aiyue to a new one. And the 'Aiyue City' was officially renamed 'Aegean City', and it was built as the imperial capital.

To the east of Aegean City is an endless blue ocean. When Bradley reigned, he only knew that the name of the ocean was 'Woxing Sea'. When Allen ascended the throne, he renamed 'Aegean Sea'.

On the Aegean coast, there are many mage merchant ships docked. Businessmen from the south to the north have come here for tourism and investment. Over time, it has become the largest Haikou harbor in the phantom world.

Thanks to the presence of literati from all over the world, the crescent-shaped bay is filled with strange buildings. Build different styles of houses according to the styles of different countries.

On the Aegean coast, it is a paradise for many gold prospectors. Early in the morning, you can see a dense crowd of figures looking down on the shoreline.

When Emperor Allen was in place, he learned that this was the largest diamond source in the Phantom Realm.

Riding in a carriage made of sandalwood, Emperor Allen laughed and talked to the Imperial Inspector Elizhe. Inquiring about the situation on this side of the Aegean Sea, the two went to inspect in person.

"I heard that there have been a lot of strange things in the Aegean Sea before, I don't know if it's true or not?" When there were no outsiders, Alan and Elizhe put aside their relationship between monarchs and ministers and began to talk about their inner thoughts.

Yi Laizhe shook his head and said regretfully: "I don't know this either. When I was visiting the Aegean Sea, I consulted a lot of ancient books. There are only sporadic words and phrases that tell the story of the Aegean Sea. ”

Legend has it that the Aegean Sea hides endless treasures. At the time of the Great War of Antiquity, this part of the Aegean Empire was in a state of secession.

The owner of the territory of the Aegean Empire at that time was a burly man. With his own skills, he occupies this area.

Later, due to the richness of the territory of the Great Han, his pockets became more and more bulging. But as he grew older, his strength became weaker and weaker.

So, Dahan came up with a solution. Transported all his assets to the Voxing Sea, which is now the Aegean Sea, and hid them.

As for where it is hidden, no one knows yet...

During his reign, King Bradley of the Empire devoted his life to the search for these treasures. But by the time he died, there was still no clue.

After establishing the Aegean Empire, Alan read some ancient books about the Aegean Sea in the Empire's library. This was the first time he had come to inspect it, and before he knew it, he had talked about it.

"Oh, I also occasionally read it in an ancient book. As for what treasure is not a treasure, it is not a big deal at all. "As for money, Alan at this time can say that there is no need to worry. Bradley has spent his life trying to get money, but he doesn't know that in the end, it is all owned by Allen...

However, human curiosity can never be stopped. When he went to the Aegean Sea to inspect it himself, he still wanted to solve the puzzle.

"Well, maybe it's just a legend. Elek looked straight ahead, suddenly raised his head to look outside, and said to Allen, "Look! ”

Emperor Allen raised his resolute forehead and looked out of the carriage with curious eyes. His eyes were stunned when the strange scenery came into view...

A crescent-shaped city nestled on the western coast of the Aegean Sea. A large diamond is in the middle of the crescent moon, as if carved by the Creator.

Houses painted in glazed sand stand side by side, with gemstone structures of various shapes supported at the tops. In the center of the wall, the curved windows face the sea, making it the best place for sightseeing.

Imagine, in the summer, enjoying the sea breeze... Admire the vastness of the ocean... Swim in the blue waters... What a beautiful thing...

"Look!"

Just as Emperor Allen was admiring the scenery of the Aegean Coast, he was suddenly attracted by the exclamation of Yi Laizhe beside him. In the direction he pointed, a huge golden ship came into view.

There was a fleet of nearly thirty ships, each of which was about 200 meters high, 3,000 meters long, and 100 meters wide. The hull of the ship shimmered with golden light, and when you looked closely, you found that it was inlaid with dense purple sand gemstones.

Alan was captivated by such a shocking scene, with an endless smile on his face. I didn't expect my empire to be so rich! The buildings and fleets in front of me alone are enough to rival the legendary treasures!

Before he knew it, Emperor Allen and Imperial Overseer Elizhe had arrived in Crescent City on the Aegean Coast. Stopping the carriage at a post station, the two of them stepped into the crescent-shaped city wall in unison.

Yi Laizhe, who followed Emperor Allen's side, introduced the situation of Crescent City as he walked: "The name of this city is called Crescent City, because it looks like a crescent moon, and people usually mention it when they chat. Over time, it was simply named 'Crescent City'. ”

"Now the crescent city on the Aegean coast is mainly based on tourism and the diamond industry. Every day, there are up to 100,000 tourists from the south to the north, and tens of thousands of businessmen come to invest and investigate. ”

"Tourism, including beach swimming, inn accommodation, observation decks, boat rides, etc. The window in the city wall that we just saw was the observation deck and the place to stay. ”

"The diamond industry, including waste pickers, gold diggers, trade clubs, diamond trading houses, etc. Scavengers search for the goods early in the morning, the gold diggers slowly sift through the authenticities, and finally the prices are assessed at the fairs, and the diamond dealers make a variety of items to sell to consumers. ”

"Oh!" Emperor Allen nodded, understanding the current situation in Crescent City. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Are the ingredients of these diamonds reliable?"

Imperial Inspector Yi Laizhe looked at Emperor Allen with some confusion, not understanding why he asked this question, and said confidently: "Of course it is reliable, this is what I personally inspected one department after another..."

Qin Emperor Allen turned his head and glanced at Yi Laizhe hesitantly, only then did he understand the links and relationships. It turns out that all these operations and issuances need to be reviewed by the Imperial Inspector himself.

In the Aegean Empire, the appearance of Emperor Allen and the Imperial Superintendent Yi Laizhe is really well known. Because the two came with no fanfare, they had to change their faces. Alan changed into a gray cloak robe, and Elizhe changed into a black cloak robe, and secretly went about business.

It was almost dusk, and two figures, one gray and one black, had disappeared into the crescent moon city on the Aegean coast...

.........

The Diamond Throne is one of the most famous inns in Crescent City. It sounds like a very tall name, but the furnishings inside couldn't be more simple.

In order to hide people's eyes, Emperor Allen and the Imperial Inspector Yi Laizhe came to the Diamond Throne in disguise.

"Boss, do you have any extra room?" Yi Laizhe, wearing a black cloak, knocked on the welcome desk of the inn and asked a middle-aged woman with a bloated body with her nostrils picked.

The middle-aged woman flicked the boogers between her fingernails, and said with a smile: "Yo! The two guest officers are here~ We have the best room here, not only the place is spacious, but also the bed is tidy. ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Ileich interrupted the middle-aged woman's words and asked bluntly, "How much is a night?"

"A purple gold coin!" said the middle-aged woman with her middle finger raised, her face unchanged.

"What?!" Elizhe tried to get out of his cloak in shock, and Alan took his agitated hands. He said angrily, "Why don't you grab it? A purple gold coin? One gold coin is enough." ”

A purple gold coin is equivalent to a year's income of an ordinary person. I didn't expect that on the eastern coastline, the price would be so casually sitting.

In fact, because of the abundance of diamonds along the Aegean coastline, people's prices have skyrocketed. The minimum transaction amount is in gold coins, and the highest is in diamonds.

A purple gold coin is just the price of people's food...

"To her!" Alan said in a hoarse voice from under his gray cloak, agreeing to the shopkeeper's blackmail.

"Hmph!" Yi Laizhe snorted with some unhappiness, took out a brand-new purple gold coin from his pocket and handed it to the bloated shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper took a purple gold coin handed over by Elizhe and tossed it in mid-air. Suddenly, there was a crisp sound from the purple gold coin, and then a happy smile appeared on his face.

The shopkeeper handed a string of swarthy house cards to Elijah's hand, and said hehe: "Hehe... Hey... This is the door card, go forward and pass the second door to the left. ”

At this time, Yi Laizhe was angry, took the door card, and walked straight in front of the shopkeeper. I thought: A purple gold coin is enough for a common person to use for a month in the imperial capital of Aegean City, and it is so worthless here.

"If you have any special needs, just come to me!"

The two had just walked a short distance when they heard the voice of the shopkeeper behind them. They understood what 'special needs' meant, covered their ears and fled to their rooms.

When the two of them arrived at the room opened by the shopkeeper, their eyes stared in amazement: rats were scurrying back and forth all over the floor, the walls were falling off the bed due to damp stones, and the dark wooden bed had been occupied by the rats...

'Ahh
