After arriving at the Thieves Guild, Rhodes originally planned to ask himself questions quickly and obtain some key information, but after seeing the posture of the Thieves Guild, Rhodes changed his plan.
Rhodes moved the parchment from the middle of the table in front of him, wrote "Situation in Crow Lord" on it, and then pushed the parchment towards the old man opposite.
The old man picked up the quill in front of him, quickly wrote words on the parchment, and then slowly pushed the paper towards Rhodes with both hands.
Rhodes took it and looked at the parchment, which read "Return of the Hero, 3".
The experience in his previous life made Rhodes understand that the first half of the parchment was the answer to his question, and the number written on the back was the total gold coins that Rhodes needed to pay.
The Thieves Guild guarantees that the information it sells is correct, but it will only provide a little information at a time. If you want to know more and more detailed information, you need to spend a lot of gold coins and ask multiple times.
Rhodes believed in the reputation of the Thieves Guild and would not easily sell unconfirmed information. Looking at the answer written by the old man, Rhodes fell into thinking.
The purpose of Rhodes asking this question is to confirm the game period he is in.
According to Rhodes' memory, when he first entered the game in his previous life, the first expansion pack of the game [God of War of Ruins] was about Krolod's barbarian leader Tanan, who after obtaining the artifact forbidden magic ball, fought against Bra
The Battle of the Kadar Master.
After seeing what the old man wrote, Rhodes had some ideas about the period he was in, but he didn't dare to confirm it completely.
Rhodes picked up the pen, wrote "the name of the hero" on the paper, and then handed the parchment to the old man.
The old man took the parchment and wrote "Tanan, 5" on it.
Just a hero's name is worth 2 gold coins. This is the value that information can bring. Rhodes knows that this is not expensive. If you want to know the general combat ability of a hero, you need to pay more gold coins.
Much.
Seeing this name, Rhodes was completely sure that the period he was in was just at the beginning of the game, the early stage of the first expansion pack.
Previously, when he obtained Ellott's pendant, Rhodes had a hunch that he might have returned to the very beginning of the game, when all players had just entered the game, but Rhodes was not sure. p>
At this time, after conducting inquiries, although only fragmentary information was obtained, based on the game experience in his previous life, Rhodes was completely sure that he had indeed arrived at the early stage of the first expansion pack.
At this stage, the hero Tanan has just completed his adventure on the mainland. He took all his treasures with him and returned to his hometown of Krolod. He began to integrate all the barbarian tribes in Krolod and accumulate strength to fight against
The Mage of Bracada.
This is the meaning of "The Hero Returns" written by the old man.
Quickly thinking about the other contents of the first expansion pack in his mind, Rhodes then wrote on the parchment "This city's Freelance Chamber of Commerce, a born hero."
Rhodes asked this question in order to obtain some information about his soul mission. According to the records on the map, it was at the Freelancer Chamber of Commerce in this city that Eliot sold Rowling.
The old man took the parchment, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then wrote "has been transferred, 10" on the paper.
Generally speaking, what the Freelance Chamber of Commerce wants to do cannot be hidden from the Thieves Guild in the same city. The Thieves Guild sold the information of the Freelance Chamber of Commerce in this way, which also led to the war between the two major forces in the later period.
The old man deliberately only wrote a few short words. If Rhodes wanted to know the situation, he would definitely continue to ask questions, which would cost Rhodes more gold coins.
Rhodes didn't care about the old man's methods, but wrote "transfer destination" on the paper.
After taking the parchment, the old man did not write the answer to the question directly on the paper, but glanced at Rhodes.
Rhodes understood what the old man meant. It was just that this news was more secretive than the previous news, and it was also more valuable. He was afraid that Rhodes would not be able to get so many gold coins after knowing it.
Rhodes nodded to the old man. After receiving Rhode's signal, the old man quickly wrote down the message and returned the parchment to Rhodes.
Rhodes looked down and saw "City of Screams, 60" written on it.
Just a place name costs 50 gold coins, which is far more than all the previous information. Of course, just a place name is not worth such a high price, but under Rhodes' question, it has a high value. This is exactly
The benefits that can be brought about by combining intelligence.
Perhaps due to the location, information from the Freelancer Chamber of Commerce in a city is obviously more expensive than that of Cruel Lord, who is almost on the other side of the continent.
After obtaining several thousand gold coins, even paying for this news is a problem.
As for not paying the bill after asking for information and using force to leave, Rhodes never thought about it. People who did this in the previous life were all wanted by the Thieves Guild.
With high bounties and detailed information provided by the Thieves Guild, many high-level assassins will choose to take on such tasks.
At this time, the news flashed through his memory. Rhodes seemed to have thought of something, and drew a symbol on the parchment, then wrote "meaning, place" on the paper, and then pushed the parchment towards the old man opposite.
.
This symbol comes from Airot's badge in the space ring. Rhodes also saw this symbol in Airot's magic book.
Taking the parchment handed back by the old man, Rhodes saw the answers to his two questions above: "Black Crow School of Necromancer, 62", "Diya, City of Screams, 65".
As if to tell Rhodes the value of each answer, the old man marked the gold coins required to pay after each answer. But Rhodes' attention was obviously not on this, but on the place name, the City of Lament.<
/p>
Looking at this place name that appeared twice, but with completely different prices, Rhodes fell into deep thinking.
What happened in the first expansion pack, the identity of the Necromancer, the City of Lament, soul missions...
The old man opposite also saw Rhodes's thinking. Without any urging, he put his hands back in front of him and waited for Rhodes' next inquiry.
Not long after, Rhodes ended his thoughts, put his hand into his arms, took out the 100 gold coins that had been packed in a bag from the space ring, and quickly divided out 65 gold coins in front of the old man, and put them away.
Put it on the table.
Then, according to the practice of quiet room inquiry, Rhodes put the parchment into his pocket and walked out.
Outside the door, the previous waiter was still waiting here, preparing to lead Rhodes back to the Thieves Guild hall.
The old man still stayed in the quiet room, stretched out his hand and swept the gold coins, and the gold coins disappeared immediately. Then he took out a new piece of parchment from a secret compartment under the table, waiting for the next guest who came to inquire.
