Faced with Antis' sudden change of expression, Roland was a little surprised, then waved his hand and said, "I'm just asking out of curiosity. If you don't want to tell me, forget it."
"Why are you, a foreign golden son, so interested in the progress of this matter?" Antis asked Roland while putting his hand on the hilt of his sword, his pretty face cold.
Are you doubting yourself? Roland's eyes fell on the opponent's right hand, and then he became a little depressed.
But it's normal to think about it. The other party was investigating the case, and he suddenly ran over to ask about the progress. It was indeed suspected that the murderer was asking for information.
Roland waved his hand hurriedly and said: "There is interest, but it's not the kind you think. I just want to see if I can help you find the queen."
"Find the queen? Why?" Antis narrowed his slender eyes: "Can you tell me?"
"I am the son of gold." Roland said lightly.
"I know."
"Most Golden Sons are nosy."
After a moment of silence, Antis released his right hand holding the sword and said, "Come with me."
The two entered the house again. Antis was wearing heavy armor and it was inconvenient to sit, so he leaned against the corner and said: "I have heard about the nosy character of your golden sons. It's just that you don't go and talk to Kaka Bader. Chat, if you don’t help your friend, what’s the use of coming here to cause trouble.”
"Kaka doesn't need my help. He has his own plans." Roland looked at the other person's feminine face, smiled, and said, "I have nothing to do, so come over and take a look at the situation."
Antis was silent.
Now the Golden Sons are a special group that all the great nobles are investigating.
The people in this group have very eccentric personalities and are full of eccentricities, such as the few golden sons who committed suicide to make money and ran around everywhere.
Although their personalities are offbeat, most of the Golden Sons tend to be in the good camp. They like to do good deeds and will even challenge the nobles because a poor person has been treated unfairly.
Now Roland came running and said that he wanted to find the kidnapped queen.
If it were other people or other organizational forces, it would be very suspicious indeed.
But if you put it on the Golden Son, the credibility is quite high.
Besides, this is a mage with high intelligence and good knowledge. He may be able to find traces of the kidnapped queen.
only…
After thinking for a while, Antis suddenly asked: "Even if it is a powerful magic guide, are you not afraid and willing to find it back?"
Roland nodded: "I'm not afraid."
"That's right, you are not afraid of death, because you can't die." Antis was a little envious, and then said: "Well, since you are willing to help, join us."
He hooked Roland, then led him around to the stairs behind the city gate, and took him to the top of the city wall above the city gate.
There is also a pavilion here, which is the command post of the city guard.
Standing here, you can overlook the entire royal city inward, and guard the surrounding areas outward.
The city wall is very wide, at least ten meters wide.
This small pavilion does not occupy a large area. It is built in the center of the city wall and is only about twenty square meters.
The two entered it. There were many bookshelves with many parchment books on them.
Antis took out the latest roll of parchment from the bookshelf and spread it out in front of Roland.
"Magicians should be literate, you can see for yourself."
The new parchment had a strange smell. Roland slowed down his breathing, opened the parchment, and cast a spell on himself to understand the language.
Antis, who was standing next to him with his arms folded, widened his eyes.
Written on the parchment are all the current investigation records of the kidnapped queen's case.
The handwriting is new and very graceful. It looks like a woman's handwriting, but the font has a hint of gold and silver between the strokes. It looks soft but strong.
Roland read the parchment and nodded with satisfaction.
Because he really triggered the mission.
'Received the side mission "The Abducted Queen"'
There is only a brief description of the task behind it: "Rescue Queen Hollevan." '
Seeing Roland's expression, Antis asked: "You seem to be satisfied with the current progress?"
Progress... In fact, there is no progress at all, only some basic information.
For example, what is the approximate strength level of the magician who kidnapped the queen? Did the queen behave strangely before being kidnapped
There is also some speculation surrounding this case.
Although there was no progress, Roland showed a satisfied expression, which made Antis think wrong.
Roland smiled and said: "It has nothing to do with the case, I just encountered some good things."
Antis was noncommittal. He looked intently at Roland's eyes and asked, "I saw you used a spell just now... Are you illiterate?"
"To be precise, I don't recognize Hollevin's writing. After all, our Golden Sons come from an alien plane." Roland shrugged.
"This is the first time I heard that there is magic that can recognize text. I heard that under normal circumstances it can only recognize voice language at most." Antis's expression became more serious, as if he wanted to see something strange in Roland's eyes. Something comes.
Roland nodded: "Yes, I changed the proficient language."
There was silence in the room for a while.
Roland was a little curious as to why Antis didn't speak.
After a while, Antis' expressionless face became a little looser: "This change is not easy."
"It was indeed quite difficult. It took me more than a month." Roland put the parchment on the other side of the table, then took out the fruit wine and cups from the system backpack. After filling them up, he said to Antis: "Would you like a drink?"
Antis shook his head: "No. I don't like drinking."
"Why?"
"Many people, both men and women, tried to get me drunk."
Roland took a sip of wine and after hearing this, he thought about it for a while before he understood what it meant. He couldn't help but shudder, put another glass of wine back into his system backpack, and said regretfully: "I won't ask you to drink anymore."
Antis showed a smile: "Now I've shown you the progress of the case, what do you think?"
"How many master-level magicians are there in the royal city?"
"Six." Antis replied.
"Can you check them?" Roland asked.
Antis shook his head, and at the same time there was a hint of sarcasm in Cherry's mouth: "Those are all big shots, and behind each of them there is at least one big family. Even the royal family dare not offend them. Do you think I dare to investigate?"
"I see."
Roland nodded.
He took the time to look at the name of the mission, and it was indeed golden.
What an epic mission.
No wonder then.
"So, can you talk to me about the queen?" Roland took out the pastry made by Vivian from the system backpack: "Since you don't drink, how about some delicious food?"
Antis's eyes lit up, he took off his iron gloves, picked up a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, tasted it, chuckled, and said coquettishly: "It's delicious. The Queen's information is considered to be the purchase of these pastries. Money."
