Everyone froze for a moment, and Anthony and Silver Coin exchanged a quick glance. Silver Coin immediately stepped forward and said, "That depends on which route your information is from. We’re only familiar with certain specific branches. What information do you want to validate?"

It’s like hitting a jackpot; what kind of fellow’s information could be more well-informed than an information broker? Now someone is asking you to validate information, that’s the privilege of being an information broker. Whether or not you can verify the truth, at least the other party has to tell you the information first.

In other words, someone is proactively telling you information without you incurring any costs. Of course, whether you can verify the truth, whether you can convince the other party, depends on your level.

Even if you can’t convince the other party and there’s only a one-time transaction, you still get information for free.

Of course, the first disclosure of information by the other party is definitely of a verification nature, used to weigh your ability. If you can’t verify the truth, then there won’t be a next time.

But this verification-type information is also very valuable to Ange’s team because they know nothing about this world, and getting a bit of information can give them a better understanding of the world.

Moreover, if you can’t verify it, can’t you just buy it? They have money (Star Flame).

If the other party presents a piece of information for verification and you say you’re not familiar with their branch, can’t verify it, but you buy the information and give them Star Flame, would they think you’re deceiving them?

They not only won’t think you’re deceiving them but will see you as a big fool... a benevolent person, eagerly exchanging all kinds of verified and unverified information for Star Flame.

As long as the price is right, isn’t this more convenient than Silver Coin wandering the streets to collect intelligence?

In summary, the information broker business can be done, and it should be done on a large scale.

The Elf Star Descendant hesitantly scrutinized Silver Coin, then looked towards the Little Angel behind him, finally sweeping over Angelo Woodroll, Anthony Negris, and others. From the pause in his gaze, he clearly regarded Silver Coin and Little Angel as the ones in charge.

"I want to know if the Land of the Infinity has reopened," the Elf Star Descendant asked.

Anthony and Negris’s hearts stirred. The first question hit the range they could validate! It’s such a coincidence. Wondering how Silver Coin would handle it?

When it comes to intelligence matters, even Anthony wouldn’t interfere with Silver Coin. Since joining Ange’s team, Anthony almost always leaves external intelligence gathering to Silver Coin. Silver Coin is the most professional, and he never worries about these things.

Silver Coin’s business system can easily penetrate every enemy region. Most of the time, confidential information can be analyzed from public information; just getting enemy commercial information makes military supplies, food, troops, and other confidential intelligence crystal clear.

Everyone remained silent, watching Silver Coin play his part.

Silver Coin thought for a moment, then said, "This information belongs to the Four Super Levels. Are you certain you want to verify this information? It’s very expensive, you know."

The Elf Star Descendant asked in bewilderment, "Four Super Levels? Information has levels? How many levels are there? How much Star Flame does it cost to verify?"

"There’s Four Super, Three Super, Double Super, Super, Level 3, Level 2, First Level, Ordinary, Garbage," Silver Coin explained.

"Super, super, super level? Such a high level? I just want to know if the Land of the Infinity has reopened, why is it such a high level?" the Elf Star Descendant asked in shock.

Silver Coin chuckled, "Want to know why it’s such a high level? That’s a Level 3 message, two units of Star Flame."

"Two... two units of Star Flame? I just want to know why its level is so high, is this even considered a message?" the Elf Star Descendant expressed disbelief, his chin almost hitting the ground.

Silver Coin calmly replied, "It seems you haven’t interacted with regular information merchants. Actually, even talking to me normally requires payment; our consultation fees are very steep."

"For example, you’ve learned two pieces of information through our conversation. One, I can find out whether or not the Land of the Infinity has reopened. Two, information about information is also valuable. Don’t you think these count as information now?"

After a good while in a daze, the Elf Star Descendant said, "That’s reasonable; you truly are professional. I won’t ask about this now. I want another piece of information: Is the Branch Lord of the Lania Route dead?"

Silver Coin replied, "That’s a Super level message concerning the God Star, requiring four units of Star Flame."

The Elf Star Descendant was shocked, "So expensive? Information about the Time-Space Ancient Dragon only costs one Star Flame, yet you charge four Star Flames for the Branch Lord of the Lania Route?"

Silver Coin said, "Everyone here knows about the Time-Space Ancient Dragon; it’s just its whereabouts. But Lania’s news is only known to us, it’s exclusive, hence the expense."

The Elf Star Descendant thought for a moment, then said, "Forget it, too expensive. I need time to consider."

Then turned and left.

Negris couldn’t help but complain, "See, your charge was too high; it scared them away."

Silver Coin laughed, "Scaring them away is also information. Now I’ll analyze why it ran away. It thinks Lania’s information isn’t worth four units of Star Flame. Why would it consider it not valuable? Is an information about a Branch Lord not worth the price?"

Ursman said, "Because it’s using this information to verify your ability; it knows Lania’s current situation."

Silver Coin nodded, "So it’s highly likely from the Lania Route."

Negris said, "Are you sure you aren’t guessing? It’s really someone from the Lania Route? So coincidental?"

"It’s not necessarily a coincidence; they’re just more active and easier to encounter," Anthony interjected, "The Branch Lord of the Lania Route is connected with Gemez Fortress, meaning they have a Gate of No Boundary. The treasure hunters with a treasure map are definitely more active than those without."

While they were chatting, Ange suddenly turned his head to glance at the direction where the Elf Star Descendant had left.

Everyone immediately looked over, and soon they saw the Elf Star Descendant flying back, accompanied by another Star Descendant.

Anthony immediately laughed, "Seems like he didn’t flee but went back to find someone. If he continues to ask about the Lania information, it could mean he’s from another route. If he asks other information, he’s from the Lania Route."

Silver Coin said, "Not necessarily. If he continues to ask about Lania, maybe he’s confirming our abilities to move to more critical information."

Then he stepped forward to welcome them.

The Elf Star Descendant came in front of Silver Coin without introducing his companion and directly took out four units of Star Flame, saying, "The Branch Lord of the Lania Route information."

Silver Coin accepted the Star Flame, then said, "Here’s the message: Ten years ago, the Branch Lord of the Lania Route was alive."

"Ten years ago? Why is it ten years ago’s information?" the Elf Star Descendant asked.

Silver Coin glanced at him and then at his companion, saying, "I shouldn’t be answering this, but since you’re our first customer here, it’s because Lania did something ten years ago that we discovered."

The Elf Star Descendant exchanged glances with his companion, accepting the explanation; they knew what Lania did ten years ago.

Even without Silver Coin’s explanation, they would’ve accepted it. After all, ten years in the Void is like yesterday; it was akin to saying "alive yesterday."

After a pause, the Elf Star Descendant solemnly asked, "We want to know a second piece of information: Why about the Land of the Infinity reopening is a Four Super Level?"

While speaking, the Elf Star Descendant reluctantly pulled out two units of Star Flame.

Regarding information levels, it all costs money, damn information brokers.
