Having successfully fooled Yan Lin, Gu Xi felt relieved and headed to the auction invitation space.

With the combat power on the Future rapidly increasing, she no longer needed to worry about being attacked on board when she went to the auction.

So after finding a suitable space for the auction, while waiting, in addition to training and communicating with Sun Yiming, she also took the opportunity to do the job of tidying up the plants in the space that she had agreed to do before.

Although Gu Xi escaped this matter once, the Book of Greed forgave her magnanimously because of her good attitude this time.

Especially after learning that she wanted to buy sea creatures that could go on board and work on the ship, he generously recommended several kinds of sea creatures to her.

Gu Xi was somewhat surprised after receiving the species names, "You're being so generous this time?!"

The Book of Greed glittered, "It's not that I'm being generous, I just gave you the names. You don't think these sea monsters I mentioned are so easy to find, do you?"

Gu Xi shook her head. She knew how outrageous her demands were. Or rather, she was asking the deep-sea creatures, who originally lived in the sea, to adapt to life on land, which was not in line with the habitat of most marine life.

The Book of Greed was somewhat smug. "So you should thank me! You not only need sea creatures that can live, work, and move around on the ship, but you also need them to have a certain fighting ability. That's not easy to find."

Gu Xi nodded instinctively, and without any hesitation, she blurted out, "Thank you."

Her overly practiced thanks made her lose track of the Book of Greed.

The Book of Greed stammered, "You know that powerful sea monsters are usually only one in number, so how many gold coins have you prepared?"

Gu Xi answered without hiding anything: "Besides the gold coins used to purchase planting space and the circulating gold coins, I have about 10,000 gold coins that I can use."

The Book of Greed: "10,000? That's not a small number."

Gu Xi glanced at it and said, "I would believe you if someone else or a member of the Deep Sea Clan said that, but I don't believe you because of what you said."

The Book of Greed glittered, seemingly recalling the time when it sold a message for 1000 gold coins.

"Isn't the news of 1000 gold coins quite valuable?" The Book of Greed's words were not a question, but a statement of certainty.

Gu Xi couldn't refute this point. Although the message was only a clue to repairing the key, she received an SSS-level fish and tens of thousands of gold coins because of it. Compared to the gains, the effort was negligible.

The book and the person have been traded multiple times, and regardless of the process, both parties have generally been satisfied with the outcome.

Gu Xi had something on her mind that she had been planning to tell the Book of Greed, and she felt that now was the right time.

Gu Xi mentioned this to it, "I want to collect information about deep-sea creatures and sea monsters. Do you have any booklets that you've already compiled?"

The Book of Greed paused, and stopped floating. "Why are you asking this?"

Gu Xi replied matter-of-factly, "Isn't it only natural to spy on potential enemies and discover potential allies?"

The Book of Greed paused for a moment before saying, "This is not a good matter."

Gu Xi stared straight at the Book of Greed, "Difficult to handle doesn't mean impossible."

Both the man and the book remained silent for a long time before the Book of Greed finally spoke: "This matter is complicated. Where should I begin?"

Its words seemed to be directed at Gu Xi, but more so at itself.

Gu Xi thought for a moment and said, "Let's start with the strange creatures on the gold coins."

From the moment Gu Xi found the gold coin, she never lost her curiosity about it.

What kind of gold coin could be used universally among the Deepsea Clan? For a currency to be universally accepted, it must at least indicate that the Deepsea Clan or a particular branch of the Deepsea Clan that issued the gold coin wields absolute influence. And the symbol on the gold coin represents that or those factions.

But what kind of existence are they? How do they compare to SSS-class sea monsters and deep-sea creatures?
