  Chapter 33 Silver Seal 1

As early as in the game process of the previous life, Rhodes was deeply Understand that intelligence plays a vital role. Whether it is business or combat, there needs to be sufficient intelligence support before a plan is determined.

Perhaps it was the influence of Thief Guild's sales of intelligence. Everyone in the game understands that intelligence has value in itself and cannot be obtained out of thin air.

If you want to get information, you can either spend time and energy investigating it yourself, or spend gold coins to buy it from someone who knows the information.

Of course, except for Thief Guild, the information sold by the rest of the people is not necessarily correct, more likely to be completely wrong information, but more or less mixed with some useful information.

If Rhodes didn't want to pay gold coin for intelligence, he certainly wouldn't be able to get it from the maid, only some basic information.

After accepting Rhodes' gold coin, the maid gave information inside the Chamber of Commerce. For Rhodes at this time, it undoubtedly gave him an intuitive understanding of the strength of this Business Group. learn.

Not long after, Rhodes and Vampire came to the Chamber of Commerce station under the leadership of the maid. The maid stepped forward first, explained a few words to the guards stationed outside the caravan, and then turned around. leave.

After the maid left, the guards led Rhodes to the interior of the station because they had a general idea of ​​Rhodes' intention.

As he walked through the station, Rhodes took a look inside the station.

In the station, most of the members are busy, placing goods on the vacant carriage.

Rhodes can see at a glance that most of the goods are sealed in wooden boxes, and it is not clear what is inside. The members of the Chamber of Commerce were struggling to transport the wooden box. Rhodes listened carefully and could hear the sound of iron objects colliding inside the wooden box.

Besides, several people who looked like overseers also noticed Rhodes' arrival, but didn't say much, just watched the guards leading Rhodes ahead, still doing the work.

While Rhodes was observing the surroundings, the guards led Rhodes to the largest tent in the station.

The guards asked Rhodes to wait outside the tent, entered the tent and reported a few words, then walked out, signaling Rhodes to enter.

Rhodes led the vampire into the tent.

As soon as he entered the tent, Rhodes was acutely aware that something was wrong. It's not that Rhodes feels dangerous, but the atmosphere around him feels familiar to Rhodes.

Vampire also felt this way, and started to get a little restless. Rhodes calmed it down with spiritual imprint, and then observed the environment in the tent.

There are some sundries in the tent, but overall it's pretty neat. Perhaps not because of the permanent residence, there were no tables in the tent, only a few chairs were placed.

Rhodes looked at a man sitting in a chair opposite the tent entrance.

This man is wearing a commoner, but the commoner cannot hide his burly figure, his face is firm, and the scars carved by several sharp tools on his face are telling the past deeds. The whole person exudes an imposing manner all the time.

Rhodes knew that according to the information provided by the maid, this person should be the head of the Business Group, Uther.

The head of the maid's mouth has the strength of a senior warrior. According to Rhodes' understanding, the corresponding rank should be in the third rank. The higher-order warrior is equivalent to the formal mage, corresponding to the fourth rank.

Looking at Rhodes entering the tent, the head of the regiment in front of him motioned Rhodes to sit down on the chair beside him.

After Rhodes took his seat, the head of the group said to Rhodes first: "I am Uther, the head of the Silver Seal Business Group. I have heard from the previous guards that you are here. Travelers, follow the Business Group to the City of Sorrows, right?"

Seeing Rhodes' nod, Uther continued: "As you should have learned, not many Business Groups are going to visit recently, except for one of our Business Groups. City of Sorrows, isn't it?"

Rhodes continued nodded, Uther added: "So, you two are both undead mage, right?"

Rhodes didn't intend to hide The identity of one's own undead mage is better than being discovered by the sorcerer halfway through, and it is better to let the other party know at the first. It's just that Rhodes has some doubts in his heart. Whether it is the veteran at the door or the head of the Business Group at this time, he has not been detected by mana, but he can see the identity of his undead mage at a glance, so he asked:

“ How do you know that we are undead mage, we should be dressed like thieves based on appearance alone."

Uther said with a smile: "The hood and the hem."

Before Rhodes could continue to question, Uther continued: "Although thieves also wear black robes, for the convenience of battle, the hem only reaches the area in front of the knee at most, unlike your black robe, which almost drags to the instep."

"With a hood, thieves rely more on their masks to conceal their identity, rather than relying on hoods. The hood behind the undead mage robes is wider, except for Dia. Will sell this style of black robe. These can be observed by experience alone."

"Even more how, you have an imposing manner...not something a thief can have. Putting all this together, you Isn't the identity of the undead mage ready to reveal?"

Rhodes was stunned after hearing this, but did not expect that only a black robe would hide this information in it. Since the previous life was not an undead mage, the previous game experience did not make Rhodes pay attention to these details.

The game experience in previous life does not cover all the knowledge in the game. This undoubtedly reminded Rhodes that if he paid attention to the differences in the black robe, he might not have been able to observe them, but he was too reliant on his previous life experience and neglected these details.

What Rhodes didn't expect was that he was just a tentative question. He thought Uther would fool around at will, but he would say all of this information.

Even if it is only the information brought by experience, it is still of great value to those who do not know.

Rhodes knew that Uther was telling the news either because he wanted to overwhelm himself in an imposing manner in order to raise the cost of travel, or because he was someone who didn't care about the details. people.

However, Rhodes did not believe that he would be a person who would say information at will, to be able to achieve the position of the head of the Business Group. The purpose of doing so could only be to increase travel expenses.

Seeing Rhodes, Uther seemed to be thinking about something, and Uther continued: "Although I often deal with undead mage, my subordinates may not accept it. The two undead mage want to go to Dia as passengers, why? It's a little suspicious, so..."

Uther didn't continue talking, but looked at Rhodes, waiting for his answer.

Rhodes understands that if he doesn't say something, the Business Group won't bring himself unless he pays a hefty price.
