Chapter 264: Bronze Mirror
Two days later, Rhodes was alone at the gates of a town.
Beside Rod, no creatures followed, neither his undead creatures nor Rowling. Long before approaching the city, Rhodes had left them far away.
During the two-day journey, due to the improvement of his mental attributes, Rod keenly sensed a feeling of peeping. Unlike the intense feeling he had when he was being tracked down by the court mage, this peeping sensation was so subtle that Rhodes almost ignored it.
At this time, just as Rhodes came to the town in front of him to inquire about the news, Rowling also opened the magic book in his hand in the back.
After leaving Valen, Rowling seems to have figured something out and takes the initiative to ask Rhodes for a necromancer's magic book.
After a moment's thought, Rhodes handed the spellbook to Rowling. According to Rod's memory, this magic book should have recorded the contents of spiritualism up to the expert level.
Naturally, Rhodes would not object to Rowling's willingness to learn spiritualism, but just let her learn the strength to withstand the breath of the ghost dragon and the Nether Dragon, and if she studied further, she would need the necromancer himself to pay the price.
When entering the city, it seemed that he noticed the dress on Rod's body, and the guards did not go through any inspection, but just took a deep look at Rod, and let Rods enter directly.
Rhodes ignored any gazes around him, and walked straight towards the center of the city.
As he passed by these guards, Rod's gaze merely swept over them to get information about their strength.
Through the information conveyed by the peeping eye, Rhodes learned that just these guards at the gate of the city had a basic strength of around the fourth order, and they had a large number of special skills.
Although the disputed land has been plagued by war, since it has been able to hold out for so long, its own strength should not be underestimated, compared to the city in Eri, the strength of the guards here is obviously stronger, and the real power hidden in the city, Rhodes is still unknown.
During these two days, with nothing to do, Rhodes could only focus on discovering his heroic strengths.
Due to the uniqueness of the hero's specialty, Rhodes is also curious about the real effect of the peeping eye he has mastered.
In the process of exploration, Rod also gradually understood the effect of this hero's specialty.
Unlike the See-Through Eye that can be cast with spells, Rhodes is able to maintain the effect of the Peep Eye at all times, and can temporarily close the Peeping Eye when Rod does not need it.
In addition to being able to obtain the opponent's attributes and special skills, the peeping eye can also probe the opponent's inner thoughts to a certain extent.
With no test subjects, Rhodes was only able to experiment with his undead creatures.
Through the message from the spirit imprint, Rhodes learns that when he uses the voyeur eye to probe, the probed creature does not appear to have any sense, which is also consistent with the description of the hero's perk.
However, when Rhodes uses his peeping eye on Rowling, something unusual appears. Rowling was able to immediately feel Rod's gaze and directly find Rod's location.
This is something that even fellow hero centaur leaders can't do. With so few samples that could be observed, Rhodes was unable to draw any valuable conclusions.
So far, Rowling is the only one who has had this anomaly. None of the residents of the city who passed by Rod, including the guards, could feel Rod's prying eyes.
Quickly skimming around them, Rhodes made his way towards the city.
The target of Rod's trip is the Thieves Guild in the city, and in addition to completing the collection of maps, Rhodes also needs to know some information.
Rhodes was extremely curious about what happened in the City of Sorrows, and through the thieves' guild here, Rhodes planned to find out the information.
Based on some hidden traces in the city, as well as the thoughts in the hearts of some thieves obtained through the peeping eye, Rhodes learned the location of the Thieves' Guild and walked directly to this location.
After entering the Thieves' Guild, Rhodes observed that this place was not much different from the Thieves' Guild he had been to, and in the dim light, several attendants were guiding the people who came to trade.
The only difference is the strength of these attendants, although they are only simple guidance, these attendants are still not weaker than ordinary professionals.
Guided by an attendant, Rhodes made his way to a room inside the Thieves' Guild.
It was also a room used for intelligence trading, and the room was very different from the quiet room interrogation that Rhodes had conducted.
What appeared in front of Rod's eyes was only a huge bronze mirror, and Rod could even see his own image reflected in the bronze mirror.
Seeing the scene in the room, Rhodes quickly walked towards the bronze mirror.
In the bronze mirror, Rod's influence is blurred, and due to the texture, the bronze mirror can only reflect Rod's figure in a rough way.
Rod approached the bronze mirror, naturally not to view the image in the bronze mirror. After seeing Rod's figure approaching the bronze mirror, he finally stopped at a very close position to the bronze mirror, and whispered to the bronze mirror in front of him: "In the city of sorrow, the information of the mother of the dead." ”
When Rod showed his intention to the waiter, the waiter naturally did not take Rhodes to other positions, although he did not see a figure, but Rod knew that the people who traded with him were obviously related to this bronze mirror.
As Rod's voice fell, the bronze mirror in front of Rhodes gradually blurred, and the original image of Rhodes was also distorted in the blur, turning into a black mist in the mirror.
Different from the previous human scenes, in the bronze mirror, the black fog appeared very clear, and Rhodes could even see every step of the black fog's expansion and contraction.
However, outside of the bronze mirror, this kind of black fog did not exist beside Rod. The black fog gradually filled the entire inside of the copper mirror, and the original copper mirror seemed to have become a kind of restraint of the black fog at this time.
After waiting for a while, the black mist began to shrink towards the inside of the bronze mirror, and on the mirror surface where the black mist was originally located, many characters gradually appeared.
Looking at the characters on the bronze mirror, Rhodes knew that this was his answer.
"The Mother of the Revenant has been snatched by the Ghost Dragon Knight. 50”
Clearly marking the price code has always been the style of the Thieves Guild. After seeing the information on the bronze mirror, Rod's attention was not focused on the numbers behind him at all, but he frowned and began to recall what had happened earlier.
Just as Rod was thinking, in the bronze mirror, the black mist appeared again, but it disappeared completely in an instant. This time, Rod's figure reappeared on the surface of the bronze mirror, but the original characters had dissipated without a trace.
