Chapter 36: The Shadow Watcher

Lowe hid leisurely behind the ruins of the watchtower, watching the dog-headed spearman Lambert Camacho put aside for two miles of sniffing, and judged to be the vice president of the Sussex Magical Society, Quinza Chandos Greenwell, and the second wave of adventurers of his follower team, stepped into the giant festering crypt in a tight battle formation.

Having learned the lesson of the first wave of adventurers, the second wave of expeditions, led by the vice president of Quinza, rested in a safe area for half a day before choosing to enter the mine on horseback rather than on foot.

Rowe noticed that some of the horses that were ridden into the mine had hooves that were much larger than normal horses, and if you just looked at the hooves, there was the illusion that "this is a camel".

"Those are Polytanian bigfoot, and it is said that they first lived in caves, and it must have been about three or four hundred years ago that they were domesticated and crossed by humans to create a suitable breed for riding. This vice president, Mr. is really not small, and he actually owns so many Polytanian horses. ”

Catherway, who was once a baroness, recognized the species of the horses at a glance.

"That's not right......"

At this time, Lambert Camacho, a kobold gunner who couldn't help twitching his nose, said suddenly.

"What's wrong? Those horses are not very pure, but they are obviously good Polytanian bigfoot. ”

Catherway thought Lambert Camacho was refuting herself, so she said with a little displeasure, she was pretty sure she was absolutely right.

"No, no, no, you misunderstood the honorable Lady Catherway. I'm not right, and I'm not referring to the horses. It's like I've sniffed the president of the Sussex Magic Society. That is, the smell of Lord Richard Samoyev, who is said to be controlling the whole of Sussex. But it is strange that among those who have just entered the festering crypt, this elder is not seen at all......"

Seeing that Catherine had misunderstood him, the kobold man hastened to explain that he knew that of the few people he could communicate, that is, this lady Catherine had the friendliest attitude towards him. So, even if it is

"Let him find a way to confirm!"

Rowe wrote in his notebook and sent the line to Catherway's eyes.

Now Rowe. It is already known that this President, His Excellency Richard Samoyev, has the strength of a powerful seven-ring lightning mage.

Among the branches of the spellcasters, the lightning mage is definitely one of the two or three of you with the most destructive power, so if this powerful being is secretly hiding in the crowd, then Luo Wei will have to carefully weigh whether he wants to go up.

Catherway did as Rowe asked, and felt that if she had done so, there would be another kobrenger with a gold coin, and sniffed at the air harder than the drug detector dog.

"I'm pretty sure it's really that Richard Samoyev! This taste, which can only be described as cold and gloomy, is definitely from the time of departure from Sussex. One of the flavors of this personally presented Lord Richard Samoev!"

After sniffing at the gunner, the kobold made such a final judgment.

Waiting for this answer, Rowe, who was about to be and thirsty, wrote a lot more words, and then showed the written words to Catherway.

"Mr. Lambert Camacho, do you mean that you only smell one of Richard Samoyev's smells, but not all of them?"

Catherway made an inquiry in Rovi's place.

"Yes, it's just one of the smells!In fact, there is more than one smell on everyone's body, normal people can only smell the most obvious and unusual ones, but for me, as long as I want to, then I can remember the whole smell of some people!" replied the kobold man a little smugly, but after realizing that he was slightly off-topic, and that it might lead to the loss of the gold coin income, he quickly returned his answer to what Luo Wei wanted to know:" The smell of Lord Richard Samoyev, in addition to the cold smell I smell now, was almost strong, like the smell of urine spilled on incense powder, and then the smell of burnt objects after being struck by lightning......"

Lambert Camacho was obviously not talking nonsense, he detailed more than a dozen special body odors of Richard Samoev that he remembered, with different shades of flavor.

"But just now, you only smelled the cold smell of one of the two strongest smells, right?"

Rowe wrote on the paper again, and Catherway quickly turned it into an audible question without waiting for Rovi's signal.

"Uh......" The kobold blinked twice before replying, "yes, only the cold smell." ”

"So, can you confirm the smell of whether you entered or didn't enter the festering crypt over there?"

Luo Wei continued to ask questions on paper.

This question, which was still relayed by Catherway, made the kobold Lambert Camacho blush, and he writhed and struggled for a while before finally answering: "I admit that the strongest kobold hunter can judge a lot of things just by his nose, but you know Lord Kel'thugad, I really only have half of my blood...... from kobolds."

There is no doubt that the answer given by Lambert Camacho is definitely not the answer that Rowe wants to hear the most.

But then again, having the olfactory information provided by Lambert Camacho before can be regarded as a great help, so you can't expect too much, and you always want to get a surprise, right?

"Say thank you to him for me, and let him continue to use his good sense of smell to keep an eye on the smell that comes from the seven-ring lightning mage Richard Samoyev. ”

So in the end, Luo Wei wrote such a line of text on paper.

After writing and showing it to Catherway, Rowe sat cross-legged on the floor and closed his eyes.

Of course, Rowe wasn't tired and planned to close his eyes or anything, in fact, he posed for a very clear purpose - to recite the ghost chanter of Musfaran, Aroline Fisher. Make long-distance heart-to-heart connections.

After being sent out by Rovi. Take cover with a near-imperceptible ghost form. Ayrine Fisher, who went to scout at close range, did not return to Rowe's side, but quietly followed that Quinza.

"Ayrine, have you found more useful information?"

Mentally Rowe asked.

"I'm afraid it will be very difficult to achieve this request of yours, although this guy you asked me to follow is a pale warlock who specializes in using witchcraft to fight people head-on, not the corpse shepherd who is most familiar with ghosts, but after all, he is a six-ring necromancer, and I can only try to restrain his ghost aura and observe him from a safe distance. ”

Aroline Fisher responded, presumably because she was trying to restrain her ghostly aura. The feeling of her voice, like a strong cold winter wind, was much weaker, and it could basically be described as a winter breeze.

"I wanted to ask you if you were aware of the existence of the casters of the six rings or more than the six rings other than the Quinza you were following. ”

Luo Wei sent another spiritual word to the past.

"Other high-ring casters above the sixth ring, my master, are you joking with me? If there is such a thing, I will definitely report it to you at the first time, without waiting for you to ask first. ”

Obviously, Rovi's inquiry made Ayrine Fisher a little dissatisfied, and she felt that Rovi simply did not trust her abilities.

"You're thinking too much about Ayrine, things are like this......"

Although there is a master-servant relationship guaranteed by the soul fire connection. Rowe didn't really care too much about any of Aroline's dissatisfaction with him, but he did get the information he got from Lambert Camacho, the kobold. Say it to Ayrine Fisher.

"So that's the case, it's really hard to see, that dog head actually played a value that exceeded expectations. Well...... I basically know what to do, my lord, you just need to be patient and wait for my debriefing. ”

After listening to Luo Wei's abbreviated information sharing, Ayrine replied like this, and then said nothing, apparently going away to conduct an intelligence investigation herself.

Since there was only waiting left, there was no need for Rowe to close his eyes any longer, he stood up and poked his head out from behind the ruins of the watchtower again, and looked in the direction of the ruined city of Sumenas.

According to information provided by kobold Lambert Camacho, the most powerful man in Sussex is Richard Samoyev, and Quinza seems to have served the former diligently as the former's deputy.

But-

Based on his understanding of human nature accumulated through his work as a forensic doctor, Rowe did not think that Quinza, who was said to have been parachuted from the imperial capital to Sussex, would really be so willing to submit to Richard Samoyev.

Otherwise, it would not explain why Quinza would have a cavalry of hundreds of followers.

From the books purchased and the answers of Catherway and the others, Luo Wei has learned that although the more powerful spellcasters will most likely have followers around them who take care of all kinds of trivial matters for them, but a normal spellcaster is at most about ten followers, where can there be so many followers around like this Quinza?

If you have so many followers, you have to invest money in these people all the time, and if you can't get more benefits with the help of these followers, who will do such a stupid thing?

So just that, you can already see a lot of things...... At least, Rowe was adamant.

It's a pity that Rowe stared in the direction of the ruined city of Sumenasas for a long time, but the situation he expected to see never appeared, and just when he was about to be completely disappointed, Aroline Fisher's side finally had a message back.

"My lord, you must not have imagined what I had discovered. ”

The first sentence of the heart-to-heart connection passed by Aroline Fisher is this.

"Don't buy it, tell me what you found!"

Luo Wei, who had been waiting for his heart, immediately replied with such a sentence.

"At the prompting of your master, I found a memory that you would never have imagined behind this group of fools who were sent to death!

Although the sound is still like a cold winter wind, it can be seen from the wording that Aroline Fisher is actually in a very good mood at the moment.

"Shadow watcher?

Rowe asked, this apparently noun-specific noun didn't trigger the shards of Sorcerer's memories.

"If it were to be accurately described, the shadow observer is a ghost scout who has been stripped of the soul of the living. The biggest advantage of it is that it does not appear to be in the same situation as ordinary ghosts, because their minds are full of hatred and darkness and cannot communicate, so the shadow observer is the best scout...... Ah, he seems to be planning to return, apparently going to his master, and I must follow him!"

As soon as Aroline Fisher explained what the shadow watcher was, and explained that Barabala's explanation was seven, seven, eight, eight, eight, and then, after an exclamation, fell silent again. (To be continued......)
