Walking out of the Thieves Guild, Rhodes walked towards his next target.
Rhodes recalled that there were three most powerful forces throughout the entire continent: the Thieves Guild, the Magic Guild, and the Freelance Chamber of Commerce.
The Thieves Guild is mainly engaged in the collection and sale of intelligence. From royal secrets to tavern anecdotes, basically most of the information can be purchased within the Thieves Guild. The more detailed the information, the higher the price. Generally, when purchasing information from the Thieves Guild, you need to make your own analysis and judgment to reduce the cost of gold coins.
In addition, the Thieves Guild will also release some assassination tasks. The assassination targets vary in strength and the rewards are generous. Those who accept the task can use gold coins to obtain detailed information about the object, or they can investigate it themselves. If the target is wanted by the Thieves Guild, all information will be provided directly.
Rhodes remembered that precisely because of this approach of the Thieves Guild, bounty hunters who specialized in assassination missions were once popular among players at that time. However, due to the time and money required to collect intelligence, and the level improvement was too slow, the bounty hunter eventually declined.
The magic guild provides learning of magic and the sale of magic props, but the price is very expensive.
According to Rhodes's understanding of the magic guild in his previous life, learning a third-level magic requires thousands of gold coins. The gold coins in his space ring seem to be a lot, but if they are used for learning, they are only enough to learn some low-level magic.
Unlike thieves guilds and freelance chambers of commerce that can be found in any town, because learning spells requires a high amount of gold coins, magic guilds are only established in large towns. Children of nobles in small towns who want to learn spells can only go to A large town with a magic guild.
Unlike hero-level creatures and players, ordinary people who want to cast magic require not only talent, but also a long period of learning. Players can acquire special skills instantly through skill points, but ordinary people often need years of study and accumulation to acquire them.
For this reason, the magic guild once cooperated with the lords of the towns to form a special product of the magic academy, which is open to all aristocratic children who want to learn magic, have ordinary talents, and have a lot of gold coins.
In addition to players learning magic quickly, so can heroes. In other words, learning various skills quickly is the ability of a hero. Players who have just entered the game have unawakened hero templates.
Heroes surpass creatures of the same level in all aspects. Whether it is learning combat skills or magic, it can be completed in an instant. This is why hero-level creatures are of extremely high value. Cultivating a heroic creature to grow up will bring extremely high benefits.
The Freelance Chamber of Commerce is responsible for most of the trade on the continent, whether it is cheap food, exquisite utensils, precious minerals or slave populations, the Freelance Chamber of Commerce is involved.
The Freelance Chamber of Commerce is a platform for all businessmen. Within it, there are a large number of business groups. The transportation of goods is organized by the business groups themselves. The Freelance Chamber of Commerce is responsible for providing goods resources and shipping channels, and in this Commission is drawn in the process.
Due to different regions, the price of the same item is also different. Before transporting goods, the business group needs to collect intelligence through various methods, and then use its own judgment to decide the type of goods that need to be transported in order to obtain the maximum profit.
At the same time, in order to ensure the safety during the transportation of goods, the business group will hire some professionals to follow and protect them on the road. This is also the source of income for most low-level professionals.
These three organizations cover most of the affairs of almost the entire continent. Rhodes had already collected intelligence from the Thieves Guild, and his target at this time was the Freelance Chamber of Commerce.
After the Thieves Guild confirmed the period he was in, Rhodes thought about how to quickly improve his strength to complete his soul mission.
If there were no restrictions on the soul mission, Rhodes would immediately go to the place where the conflict in the first expansion pack was the most intense, the battlefield of Crow Lord, and get the maximum benefit according to his grasp of the plot in his previous life.
But Rhodes, who has a soul mission, cannot do this. First of all, the road to Crurod is extremely long. Due to the extremely inconvenient transportation, the only way Rhodes can currently use is riding a horse. It will take several months just to get to Crulode. In addition, the soul mission is limited to only one year. Rhodes will definitely not be able to this way.
Rhodes could only choose another way and choose to go to Diya.
In Rhode's impression, in the middle of the first expansion pack, a war broke out between Diya, the country of the necromancer, and Eri, the elf country adjacent to its border.
Rhodes didn't know the specific reason for the war, but he knew the general direction of the war.
Under the attack of a large number of necromancers and without any preparation, a large number of elven creatures on the Eri border died, and all were transformed into undead creatures. Finally, the entire border fell.
Just when the Necromancer wanted to continue to expand his advantage and attack inside Eli, the high-level creatures that originally loved peace inside Eli took action one after another, just like the Deadwood Warriors that Rhodes had seen before, and they also joined the battlefield.
At this time, the disadvantage of the undead clan's lack of high-level creatures was exposed. Since the high-level ones suppressed the low-level ones very obviously, even the massive zombies and skeleton soldiers were completely unable to compete with the deadwood warriors that Rhodes had seen before.
When facing high-level creatures, low-level undead creatures are completely useless and cannot even be contained. They can only rely on the necromancer's own spellcasting ability.
Under Eli's counterattack, Diya's invasion ultimately ended in failure, and the Necromancer suffered heavy losses.
But there are also many necromancers who have benefited from this war. As far as Rhodes knew, it was in this battle that Ellott in his previous life came to prominence, accumulating strength for the arrival of the second expansion pack.
Rhodes believed that if Eliot in his previous life could benefit from this war without knowing the direction of the battle, then he, who knew the general development process of the battle, could do the same.
Now, Rhodes's space ring contains Airot's academy badge. According to Rhodes' understanding of the Academy of Necromancy, unlike formal magic academies in other places, they always only recognize badges and not people. He can use this badge to sneak into the academy, and then learn about the battle in time through the intelligence inside the academy. Case.
Therefore, Rhodes chose to go to the Freelance Chamber of Commerce and follow the caravan to the lamenting city of Diya.
