Before night came, Roland walked around East Street three or four times and had a rough idea of the scope of the mission. The Great Supreme is a circle, with the center point in a very large court of prostitutes.
With this building as the center, a radius of approximately 300 meters is the mission area.
In other words, the clues related to the queen's disappearance are here.
Two magic spiders disappeared from the balcony at extremely fast speeds.
Afterwards, one or two pictures flashed through Roland's mind from time to time.
One went directly to the most central point of the mission, the extremely luxurious brothel compound.
Another one went from house to house to see if there was anything unusual.
There were only two magic spiders for reconnaissance, which was not very efficient, but it was still much better than Roland risking being discovered under curfew and going to do the reconnaissance himself.
There were originally three, but Roland left one beside Mijie. He was afraid that people from the Shadow Guild would come to trouble him again. It was a bit unsafe to have only one guard puppet. If there was an eye liner, he would know better. Whatever happens, if something does happen, the rescue will become more targeted.
It won't hit you everywhere like a headless fly.
The first spider lurked from the shadowed corner of the street to the backyard of the brothel mansion without anyone noticing. Then it climbed along the wall to a balcony on the second floor. After detecting that no one was paying attention, it sneaked into the room. middle.
The second spider has been walking in and out of commercial buildings on the street, looking for suspicious things.
These spell puppets will inherit the summoner's common sense and some cognitive abilities, while the magic spider has been specially strengthened by Roland in these two aspects, almost reaching the same level as Roland.
In other words, if Roland can detect anomalies or clues, it stands to reason that they can too.
Roland sat quietly on the balcony, admiring the night view and tasting fruit wine.
He just had to sit quietly and wait for the picture fragments sent back by the spider.
But even so, Roland still felt that the efficiency was not high, only two... If there were a hundred, or even only forty-five, the efficiency of reconnaissance would be greatly improved.
Just as a zero-level spell, the model capacity of the spell puppet is so large. Now it is almost reaching the upper limit. Roland estimates that adding a sound transmission function to it will be the limit.
In other words, this thing is fine for reconnaissance of a small area around it, or tracking one or two enemies, but searching a large area like this is not enough.
How to increase the number of reconnaissance magic spiders
This is quite a problem.
If you want to increase the number, you must give up some, but both picture transmission and simultaneous sound transmission are very important.
"Is there any expertise like spell cloning?" Roland asked himself.
Then more and more pictures came to Roland's mind, including businessmen working at their desks, scholars reading books, and couples fighting with goblins. And when the first magic spider completely entered the brothel, there were more scenes of goblins fighting.
Roland felt a little helpless and wanted to summon the first spider back. The brothel compound was the center of the mission area and must not be missed during the search.
The search efficiency of the two spiders was still too low, and they found almost nothing useful or strange.
It will soon be morning in front of us, and the white fish belly has already appeared on the horizon.
Roland estimated that he might return empty-handed tonight, but at this moment, the second spider suddenly sent a picture of several men in black robes holding a sack, walking into a dark alley.
And something seems to be twisting in the sack
Kidnapping
This world is indeed dark. At night, if you send two random spiders out, you will see bad things.
Roland pondered for a moment, but before he could decide whether to go and see what was going on, the mission system was triggered again.
Received the side mission: 'Rescue the poor civilians'
The task, and it is also a system certification task, must be completed no matter what.
Roland stood up and looked outside.
Although the curfew is not over yet, it is close to dawn, so the curfew is actually not important anymore.
Moreover, Roland is a mage. Even if he is found to be violating the curfew at this time, the patrol team will most likely turn a blind eye.
Although the Queen's matter was done by the mage, a few days have passed and the King's anger has subsided a lot.
If you can't offend the mage, you can't offend the mage. This is also the simple idea of the grassroots soldiers.
Roland got up, left the hotel, and went straight to the location of the kidnapped person.
Because the spider had been following these men in black robes, Roland was not worried about them getting away.
Halfway through, Roland indeed met the patrol.
But as he had guessed, this fully armed patrol showed no hostility when they saw Roland, and the leading officer even nodded slightly to him.
Roland naturally nodded slightly.
Both sides missed each other.
Roland could feel the soldiers letting out sighs of relief.
Arriving at the entrance of the alley, Roland walked in.
It was very dark inside, and Roland subconsciously wanted to cast a light ball for illumination, but he was afraid of disturbing the situation, so he had to give up.
The alley stinks, the smell of urine mixed with the disgusting smell of feces.
Roland pinched his nose and walked forward, walking very slowly because it was dark after all. After turning a few corners, he stopped at the corner. Thinking about how he should deal with those dozen men in black robes.
There are no houses here anymore, only two walls. Beyond that is a wide wasteland, and further away is the city wall.
A dull thumping sound came from the front.
Also accompanied by voices.
"Silonado, now it's time for you to tell me where you are hiding your people."
"Don't... know." A suppressed voice came.
"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. I will kill you, and then your wife and son." A gentle-sounding voice said creepy words: "I'm a very reasonable person. You're sorry." I'm here first. For the sake of our previous friendship, I don't want to cause trouble to you. But now you have actually hidden the person. Don't you know that this is very important to me? If the person can't be found, I will die. .”
"I really don't know!" the voice shouted, coughing twice.
"Oh, I really don't want to do anything to you." The gentle voice said: "Even if you betray me, this matter is really related to my life and the safety of my brothers."
This seems... a little wrong.
Roland looked at the column provided by the system tasks, thought about the task area for a while, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Diat, I really don't know." The voice cried: "I know I'm sorry for you, but I really don't know this."
"really do not know?"
"I don't know!" The man's cry became louder and louder.
"Forget it." The gentle voice sighed: "You can leave. I will trust you again. If you still lie to me, you know the consequences..."
Then came the sound of staggering and hasty footsteps going away.
Roland looked at his system bar.
Mission failed: 'Save the poor civilians. '
Roland clicked his tongue in his heart. He originally wanted to find clues about the queen, but unexpectedly, he saw a bug, or loophole, in the mission system!
