When he arrived at the designated place of the mission the next day, the task publisher had not yet arrived, only dozens of people with strong bodies, Rod glanced around, except for a warrior mercenary with sword pressure, there were only three or two people with a physical attribute of 10 points, and the rest of the people were all ordinary people with an attribute of less than 10.

The only thing that made Rhodes care was that the aura of the official professional was more of a predator than a protector, greedy and dangerous, and the other party was more like a spy on a fat sheep than a genuine desire to accept the task of guarding.

The quest publisher came quite quickly, and a number of exquisite carriages surrounded a luxurious carriage in the middle, which could be seen from the carriage decoration was very valuable.

Rod nodded secretly, sure enough, he was the one who issued the 1 gold coin mission, and the carriages he rode in were so luxurious, but they weren't afraid that someone would have bad intentions?

Glancing at the warrior mercenary who overflowed with a large amount of greedy aura, Rhodes secretly raised his guard in his heart, with the strength of the other party, he would definitely be hired by the task publisher.

Rhodes was not afraid, but had some expectations, because after entering the royal capital, he naturally could no longer kill like now, and it was impossible for his left arm to quickly gain energy, so at this time, there was always no wrong behavior to obtain more energy.

When the task publisher came and stepped out of the carriage, Rhodes secretly said that it was the seemingly delicate eldest lady and her butler on the train, Tom let out a cry of surprise, and instantly rushed into Alyssa's arms.

Alyssa gently caught Tom, her eyes flashed, and she nodded to Rod from afar, but she didn't immediately greet Rhodes, but began to explain the task and assessment calmly, and after speaking, the butler began to assess everyone.

Rhodes entered the luxury carriage in the middle at the signal of Elisa, and learned in the casual conversation that the girl originally didn't want to be so eye-catching, but wanted to go on the road alone with the housekeeper, but I heard that bandits have been rampant recently, and the railway was cut off by a gang of bandits.

Although Rhodes thinks this style is a bit problematic, this is the aristocratic pomp of this world, and it is an unspoken rule similar to aristocratic etiquette, and Alyssa is obviously an aristocrat and must adapt to this kind of rule.

"I'm sorry, Rod, I didn't mean to hide it from you, but you know that some people don't like nobles."

With the progress of civilization, more and more people do not want the existence of nobles, and the privileges of the nobility are hated by most people, and because of this, this kind of thinking is used by people with good intentions, and there are still small bandits in the country, and the bandits who cut off the railway are obviously one of them.

"I can understand this, but although I can understand it, but since you know that the gang of bandits cut off the railway, aren't you afraid that the gang of bandits will attack this luxury convoy?"

Alyssa confidently took out a map and drew a route on the map: "Although I also think that the butler's approach is inappropriate, but his idea is quite comprehensive, this is the route he came up with to enter the royal capital, as long as he can avoid the small group of bandits and reconnaissance team, he can successfully bypass the battlefield and enter the royal capital through other routes." ”

Rhodes looked at the map that Alyssa had taken out, which marked the location of the bandits and the kingdom's army in detail, as well as the nearest patrol locations of the bandits.

is worthy of being a nobleman, and there is such a detailed battlefield map, but generally speaking, Alyssa should not take it out at will, unless the other party wants to win her over.

Alyssa smiled playfully: "Last time, I saw Rhodes' notice of reporting the sheriff in Shanhai City, coupled with Rhodes' skillful etiquette on the train, if I guessed correctly, Rhodes should be a graduate of Wang Li College." ”

Rod's heart said sure enough, just like he thought that Alyssa was valuable, so he wanted to make friends, Alyssa also thought the same, and did not hesitate at the moment, and directly took out the badge.

Alyssa showed a surprised expression: "It turns out that Rhodes also has this badge, and I also have it, it looks like Rhodes and I will become alumni, it's a coincidence." ”

Alyssa also took out the badge, which was very similar to Rhodes, but a little different, because although each badge as a whole remains the same, the details will change according to different people, representing the subjects that person is good at.

Then, when the two were interested in befriending each other, they naturally began to warm up, and also said some information about themselves, Alyssa is indeed a nobleman, and a nobleman with his own family heirloom magic, called strengthening the secret art, which can strengthen himself, armor and even weapons.

At the same time, the information in the lower left corner of Rhodes has also been updated, and the original question mark has become an enhanced secret technique.

Rod did not skimp on his knowledge, told the matter of magic control runes, and demonstrated the magic burst and illusion camouflage on the spot, and then Alyssa took out a complete set of general textbooks for the academy under Rod's surprised gaze.

What surprised Rhodes even more was that this set of textbooks contained a basic description and testing methods for magic and sword pressure, although the methods were a little rough, but they were enough for Rhodes, as long as he could know the approximate strength of the enemy and the direction of strengthening, it was enough to meet these two points.

"It seems that even the foundation of magic control runes can't be relaxed, but without using spells, I can use illusions that are enough to deceive me, and other spells can also be amplified, and runes that can be printed in textbooks are really not that simple."

At this moment, the butler had already selected nine people and asked Alyssa to check.

After Rod and Alyssa walked out of the carriage together, they saw the official warrior, the other party exuded a strong tyranny and greed at this time, and the moment they saw Alyssa, these two breaths rushed into the sky and pounced on Alyssa.

Alyssa frowned keenly, instinctively feeling that there was something wrong with this strong man, but the other party's expression was very well concealed, and the other party was the only official professional outside of Rhodes, Alyssa did not drive the other party away after all.

Glancing at the others, he found that they were all just strong ordinary people, nodded with a cold and lonely face, agreed with the butler's choice, and then didn't say a word, and sat back in the carriage directly, and the convoy soon began to set off.

Seeing Alyssa's frowning brows, Rhodes knew that Alyssa had doubts in her heart, so he said casually: "Alyssa, you'd better be careful of that strong man, the other party gives me a very bad feeling, there is a feeling of killing, not like a protector of protection, but like a murderous raider." ”

Alyssa nodded cautiously, the expression on her face relaxed, revealing a quiet and elegant smile: "It doesn't look like I'm too careful, I'll let the housekeeper monitor those people, I just hope there won't be chaos, and in the next few days, I will have to trouble Rhodes to bother a lot." ”

Rod calmly accepted Alyssa's smile and words, which meant that Alyssa intended to treat Rhodes as a companion, rather than a relationship between the hired and the employed.

"Of course, since I have accepted this mission, I will naturally do my best, Tom can sneak in the shadows, and at a time or place that is inconvenient for the housekeeper, you might as well let Tom spy on the other party."

Rhodes also stated his position, work is work, relationship is relationship, since I accepted this commission, I will naturally do what I have to do, and I will never use the relationship to be lazy at work.

Of course, it is still possible to use the relationship to borrow textbooks, and there are Tom and the housekeeper in the matter of surveillance, and the main force is of course Tom, compared to the housekeeper, it is not only strength, but also more convenient for Tom to spy on each other.

Sure enough, a few days later, Tom really noticed the other party's movements, and at the same time, he also discovered that it was not just the strong man alone, but several of the other party's companions in the team.

Alyssa listened to Rod's report with a cold face, and at the same time got something wrong with the other party from the housekeeper, but the other party was very alert, and immediately returned to normal after discovering that the housekeeper might be watching.

After thinking about it and looking at Rod again, Alyssa asked the housekeeper to give up spying on those people, and the future surveillance operations were all handed over to Rod and Tom, and the meaning of trust was self-evident.
