Two days later, Rhodes arrived at the gate of a town alone.
There was no creature following Rhodes, whether it was his undead creatures or Rowling. Before approaching the city, Rhodes asked them to stay far away.
During the two days of traveling, due to the improvement of his mental attributes, Rhodes keenly felt a sense of peeping. Different from the strong feeling when being tracked by the court mage, this sense of peeping was so subtle that Rhodes almost ignored it.
At this time, just as Rhodes came to the town ahead to inquire about news, Rowling was also behind to open the magic book in her hand.
After leaving Wallen City, Rowling seemed to have figured out something and took the initiative to ask Rhodes for a necromancer's magic book.
Rhodes thought for a moment and handed the magic book to Rowling. According to Rhodes' memory, this magic book should contain content up to expert level spiritualism.
Rhodes would naturally not object to Rowling's willingness to learn spiritualism. He just wanted her to learn the strength to withstand the ghost dragon's breath. If she further learns, the necromancer himself will have to pay the price.
When they entered the city, they seemed to notice Rhode's attire. The guard did not undergo any inspection. He just took a deep look at Rhode and let him enter directly.
Rhodes ignored any glances from around him and walked directly towards the center of the city.
When passing these guards, Rhodes' eyes just glanced at them and got information about their strength.
Through the information conveyed by the Peeping Eye, Rhodes learned that the basic strength of these guards at the city gate was around level four, and they had a large number of special skills.
Although the disputed land has been plagued by war, since it has been able to persist for so long, its own strength cannot be underestimated. Compared with the city in Eli, the defensive strength here is obviously stronger, and the real power hidden in the city is Rod is still unknown.
During the two-day march, with nothing to do, Rhodes could only focus on exploring his own heroic specialties.
Due to the uniqueness of the hero's specialty, Rhodes was also curious about the true efficacy of the Peeping Eye he had mastered.
In the process of exploration, Rhodes also gradually understood the effect of this hero's specialty.
Unlike the clairvoyant eye cast by magic, Rhodes can always maintain the effect of the peeping eye, and can temporarily close the peeping eye when Rhodes does not need it.
In addition to being able to obtain the opponent's attributes and special skills, the Peeping Eye can also detect the opponent's inner thoughts to a certain extent.
Since there were no experimental subjects, Rhodes could only conduct experiments with his undead creatures.
Through the message from the spiritual mark, Rhodes learned that when he used the Peeping Eye to detect, the creature being detected would not have any perception, and this was consistent with the description of the hero's specialty.
However, when Rhodes used Peeping Eyes on Rowling, something abnormal would appear. Rowling, however, could immediately feel Rhode's gaze and find Rhode's location directly.
Even the centaur leader, who is also a hero, cannot do this. Because there were too few samples to observe, Rhodes was unable to draw any valuable conclusions.
So far, Rowling is the only one who has experienced this anomaly. None of the residents in the city who passed by Rhodes, including these guards, could feel Rhodes' prying eyes.
Quickly passing by the people around him, Rhodes walked toward the city.
The goal of Rhodes' trip is the Thieves Guild in the city. In addition to completing the collection of maps, Rhodes also needs to know some information.
Rhodes was extremely curious about what happened in the City of Lament. Through the Thieves Guild here, Rhodes planned to find out this information.
Based on some secret traces in the city and the thoughts in the minds of some thieves obtained through prying eyes, Rhodes learned the location of the Thieves Guild and walked directly towards this location.
After entering the Thieves Guild, Rhodes observed that it was not much different from the Thieves Guild he had been to before. Under the dim lights, several waiters were guiding the people who came to trade.
The only difference is the strength of these waiters. Although they are only providing simple guidance, these waiters are still not weaker than ordinary professionals.
Under the guidance of a waiter, Rhodes came to a room inside the Thieves Guild.
It is also a room used for intelligence transactions. The inside of the room is very different from the quiet room interviews that Rhodes once conducted.
What appeared in front of Rhodes was a huge bronze mirror, and Rhodes could even see his own image reflected in the bronze mirror.
Seeing the scene in the room, Rhodes quickly walked towards the bronze mirror.
In the bronze mirror, Rhode's influence was blurred. Due to its texture, the bronze mirror could only reflect a rough outline of Rhode's figure.
Rhodes approached the bronze mirror, naturally not to check the image in the bronze mirror. After Rhodes approached the bronze mirror, he finally stopped very close to the bronze mirror and whispered to the bronze mirror in front of him: "Information about the Mother of Dead Souls in the City of Screams."
After Rhodes expressed his intention to the waiter, the waiter naturally would not take Rhodes to another location. Although he did not see anyone, Rhodes knew that the people he was dealing with were obviously related to this person. Bronze mirror related.
As Rhodes finished speaking, the bronze mirror in front of Rhodes gradually blurred. Rhodes' original image was also distorted in the blur, and turned into a black mist in the mirror.
Different from the previous scenes of characters, the black mist appeared very clear in the bronze mirror. Rhodes could even see every step of the expansion and contraction of the black mist.
However, outside the bronze mirror, there was no such black mist around Rhodes. The black mist gradually filled the entire inside of the bronze mirror. The original bronze mirror now seemed to have become a constraint of the black mist.
After waiting for a while, the black mist began to shrink toward the inside of the bronze mirror, and many characters gradually appeared on the mirror surface where the black mist was originally located.
Looking at the characters on the bronze mirror, Rhodes knew that this was his answer.
"The mother of dead souls has been snatched away by the Ghost Dragon Knight. 50"
It has always been the Thieves Guild's style to clearly mark the price. After seeing the information displayed on the bronze mirror, Rhodes' attention was not focused on the numbers behind it at all. Instead, he frowned and began to recall what had happened previously.
While Rhodes was thinking, the black mist appeared again in the bronze mirror, but disappeared completely in an instant. This time, Rhodes' figure reappeared on the surface of the bronze mirror, but the original characters had disappeared without a trace.
