My queen is rebelling!

#33 - Silver Medal 207

Nefthys, sensing the confidence in Cohen's tone, cautiously said:

"I heard that the high-ranking official that his uncle is involved with seems to have entered the cabinet and is a favorite of the Prime Minister."

Cohen was slightly surprised and asked:

"Do you know who it is?"

Nefthys replied:

"It seems to be the Lord High Justice."

Cohen's mind immediately flashed back to the scene of the first pre-court conference after he recovered his memories from his previous life.

At that time, Snape spoke out against the Prime Minister's decision to postpone the King's coming-of-age ceremony, and the first to jump out and charge for the Prime Minister seemed to be the Lord High Justice.

Now that he thought about it, it was the new Lord High Justice, Baron Gore Philip.

Cohen patted Nefthys on the head, signaling her not to worry:

"Just a Lord High Justice, don't worry, I will make you proud and take back what belongs to you from the DuPont family!"

"Thank you, sir!"

Tenderness and gratitude flowed from Nefthys' eyes, and her touching expression filled Cohen with vanity.

"Alright, stop with the tender affections, come out and take a look, there's a situation!"

A deep, middle-aged voice suddenly rang in their ears.

Nefthys shuddered violently, her face changing drastically.

Cohen gently gestured to her, signaling her not to worry.

Cohen recognized that it was the voice of Royal Uncle Haug.

Nefthys stared at the middle-aged man for a long time, realizing that she couldn't make out his features no matter what.

She was slightly shocked, as a veteran of an ancient warlock family, she understood that this was a visual distortion caused by powerful strength.

This person was deliberately concealing his appearance.

Cohen saw the black-robed man lying on the ground and asked with a light "Huh":

"Who is this?"

Prince Haug said:

"He appeared outside twenty minutes after you entered the manor. He looks like a killer from the Black Tomb."

"Black Tomb? What is this killer's strength?"

"Fourth Order."

After a pause, Haug added:

"He was Fourth Order before, but now he should be considered a cripple."

Cohen's eyes flickered slightly:

"As long as he's not dead!"

He took off the black-clothed man's mask, revealing an ordinary middle-aged man's face.

Cohen carefully examined the silver mask and saw three numbers in a hidden spot on the lower left corner of the mask—207.

Cohen murmured softly: "Silver Plate Two-Zero-Seven."

Haug asked:

"What?"

Cohen came back to his senses and explained to the two of them:

"This killer's code name is 'Silver Plate Two-Zero-Seven'.

In the 'Black Tomb', killers below the Legendary rank are distinguished by gold, silver, and bronze tokens.

Each Gold Plate killer leads several Silver Plate killers, and each Silver Plate killer leads several Bronze Plate killers.

There is a one-way connection between superiors and subordinates. Among those of the same rank, only killers above the Gold Plate rank can contact each other; the rest are prohibited from having any contact during non-mission periods."

Cohen continued to reach out and search the killer's body, quickly finding a magic scroll and a rhombus-shaped stone.

He handed the scroll to Prince Haug, signaling him to isolate the scroll with magic power, and then, holding the stone, explained to the two of them:

"This is the 'Black Tomb's' internal communication stone, and also a symbol of their identity.

A Silver Plate killer like this one can already independently accept orders from the 'Business Agent'."

Nefthys suddenly interrupted and asked:

"Wait, does the 'business' in 'Business Agent' refer to assassination business? What does 'accepting orders' mean?"

Cohen nodded and explained:

"That's the 'Black Tomb's' internal jargon.

The 'Business Agent' is responsible for accepting client commissions and determining the commission for each operation based on the target's strength and background, as well as assigning the task to a suitable killer.

A killer accepting a task from a business agent is called accepting an order.

Internal management of the Black Tomb is extremely strict. Only killers with the code name Silver Plate or higher are qualified to accept orders from business agents; the rest can only follow the Silver Plate killers."

Prince Haug said from the side:

"Does that mean we can follow the trail of this killer to find the Business Agent, and thus find out who placed the commission for this task?"

Cohen shook his head:

"The 'Business Agents' have a very high status, and killers below the Legendary rank are not qualified to see them at all.

Moreover, there's no need for such trouble. After the client places an order with the Business Agent, the Business Agent will give the client a temporary communication stone to communicate with the killer in action."

Prince Haug immediately said: "Then we can lure out the client by controlling this killer."

Cohen chuckled:

"I have a better idea."

Prince Haug was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted:

"You wouldn't be thinking of impersonating this 'Silver Plate Two-Zero-Seven', would you?"

Cohen tossed the communication stone in his hand and said:

"Why not? Such a good opportunity to infiltrate the 'Black Tomb' shouldn't be wasted.

According to the 'Black Tomb's' organizational principles, very few people within the organization truly know the Silver Plate killer's identity. We have a great chance of sneaking in."

Prince Haug shook his head:

"Too risky. The 'Black Tomb' organization is very strict. It's not like other organizations haven't tried to infiltrate before, but without exception, they have all failed.

I believe that besides the communication stone, they have other, more secretive ways to verify identity."

Cohen nodded:

"Of course they do.

Killers with Silver Plate or lower will integrate their own aura into the communication stone of their immediate superior killer before joining the organization, and then the aura will be transmitted layer by layer, eventually reaching the hands of a Legendary Elder.

When a killer dies, his aura will also disappear, thus reminding his superiors to develop a new subordinate."

Prince Haug quickly reacted:

"What if this Legendary Elder also dies?"

Cohen continued:

"The 'Black Tomb' headquarters has a semi-divine artifact. The communication stones used by the killers are all derived from this semi-divine artifact. It can be said that this semi-divine artifact controls all the communication stones.

Once the semi-divine artifact detects that a Legendary Elder has fallen, it will automatically collect all the auras on the Elder's communication stone and regenerate a new communication stone."

Cohen looked at the thoughtful Prince Haug and added:

"Of course, there is a process for collecting the aura, which takes about two hours."

Prince Haug completely understood Cohen's meaning and said:

"In other words, we only need to kill this Silver Plate Two-Zero-Seven's Gold Plate superior and the Legendary Elder who manages this branch of killers.

Then, within two hours, change the aura on the communication stone, and we can muddle through and successfully infiltrate?"

Cohen nodded:

"That's what I mean."

Prince Haug frowned slightly:

"That's very difficult. His Gold Plate superior is easy enough to deal with, but as far as I know, the Legendary Elders usually stay in the headquarters of each branch, making it difficult to attack them."

A mysterious smile appeared on Cohen's face:

"If it were before, it would indeed be very difficult. But in a few days, they will all take the initiative to attack and gather in Florence!"
