The Hidden Knight of Mystra Chapter 057 Intelligence
A corner of Shuguang Town.
Walking on the cobblestone path in the morning breeze.
Roger was in a pretty .
When the target of the hunt is Jonny Stotle, the gargoyle's killing efficiency is a little lower.
But last night I also gave him 5 years of life.
The key is not the quantity.
It’s about the joy of earning interest just by lying down!
And today on the way.
Roger's sight of carrying the gargoyle around the city also attracted a lot of people's attention.
It won't be long before everyone knows there's a new guy in town with a gargoyle.
This is in line with Roger's idea of wanting to show off his strength while hiding his cards.
With a powerful magical beast like a gargoyle as a servant, most people would probably mistake him for a warlock or a wizard.
Only a few people might be able to guess his background as a ranger.
Only when the fight really started did they discover that this guy was actually a martial artist!
As for the real trump card profession hidden hero.
Only the dead know.
…
Crossed an open road and turned two more corners.
Roger finally arrived at his destination.
The terrain in the area ahead is raised.
Densely distributed under the sunlight are rows of low houses.
Outside the low house, people come and go, making it like an information exchange area.
This is the "official area".
It is a place where officials deal with public affairs.
Needless to say, this novel government system was naturally created by Alan.
It is said that if you are lucky, you can run into Alan himself working in the low house.
Roger walked over.
When passing by the lord's house, he deliberately slowed down his pace.
"It seems like bad luck."
Looking at the tightly closed door , Roger came to the "Monster Intelligence Department" next door with a little regret.
This is the official place where monster information is sold or collected.
There are a lot of people today.
Roger waited in line for a long time before it was his turn.
The clerk who received him was a strong and capable bald man.
Even in the low house with dim light, the shiny forehead is still particularly eye-catching.
“Sell or buy?”
The bald man spoke very quickly and without a trace of emotion.
Roger glanced at the nameplate on the table - "Hanson Huld."
"Buy it." He said straight to the point: "Jony Turtle."
Hansen frowned:
"Are you going for the reward?"
Roger didn't shy away from the question and nodded slightly.
"I personally suggest that you consider it carefully."
Hansen put down the pen in his hand and crossed his hands naturally:
"This year, the Lord has raised Jonny Turtle's bounty four times in a row - any smart person should understand what this means."
"We don't recommend young adventurers waste their energy on such difficult bounties."
Roger waved calmly.
The gargoyle hiding in the dark quickly flew over and landed on his arm with great effort.
"Gargoyle?"
Hansen immediately showed a hint of respect: "It seems that I lack vision."
The next second, he suddenly lowered his voice:
"But the official information fee for Jonny Squirtle is 500 copper tokens."
“It’s very expensive.”
"If you insist on trying, I have a cheap piece of private information here - only 5 copper orders."
"Believe me, after hearing the private information, you will be grateful to me for saving you the 500 copper tokens."
Roger narrowed his eyes.
Is this an abuse of power?
"Can."
Roger quickly selected five copper tokens and handed them over.
Hansen cleared his throat and whispered:
"The source of Jonny Squirtle is at the bottom of the Serra River!"
Roger's pupils shrank and he immediately realized something.
Without waiting for him to think.
Hansen recounted the information he knew at a very fast pace.
…
It turns out that it was at the beginning of the Joni Turtles infestation.
Alan once personally took action to try to solve the problem of the rampant monsters.
At that time, he proposed two feasible ideas.
The first is to deal with the monster itself.
That is to say, a large-scale culling of Jonny Stoles.
This line of thinking soon proved to be unworkable.
People can't do anything about Jonny Stottle.
To this end, Alan specially designed a new type of mace that can severely damage Jonny Stottle.
But he failed in the end.
Jonny Stotle runs too fast, and we can't kill it with a hammer.
The second idea is to destroy the source or nest of the Joni Stottles.
This would have been a great idea.
But as the investigation deepens.
Alan discovered that all the clues pointed to the cursed river!
All the jony turtles crawled out of the Sierra River.
If you want to destroy their nest, you have to go deep into the Serra River.
This is obviously a very dangerous thing to do.
Neither approach works.
The hunt for Jonny Stotle has come to a standstill.
…
"I see."
Roger nodded slightly.
"Is it right to listen to me?"
Hansen took a sip of water and his tone returned to being cold:
"It's okay, go to the next one."
Roger pretended to think for a while before speaking:
"I still want to buy the official information about Jonny Turtle."
In his opinion, Alan's information has certain reference value.
Roger is now also worried about how to better hunt Jonny Stotle.
Suicide bracelets are too restrictive to be used as a routine measure.
"ah?"
Hansen was stunned for a moment, and repeatedly confirmed that Roger was not joking.
He stood up.
He took out a sealed file from the cupboard behind him and handed it to Roger.
"Give."
By the way, he also returned the five bronze orders to Roger.
Roger was a little confused: "Is it 500 copper orders?"
Hansen blinked:
"No, it's free."
Roger was stunned for a moment.
Hansen shrugged.
"We are eager to find someone to solve this difficult matter. How could we be stingy with the intelligence fee?"
"For all those who insist on purchasing intelligence, it is free."
Roger took the file and asked:
"Then why not choose to make the information public?"
Hansen said seriously:
"First, as I said, we don't want to waste the energy of most ordinary adventurers. In the face of high bounties, few people can recognize themselves clearly."
"Second, after listening to my "private intelligence", you still insisted on buying it, which means that you probably already have some solutions in mind. And you are strong enough, this kind of talent is what we need."
"Third, Lord Alan once said this: "Most information should be transparent, and most intelligence should be limited." "
Having said that, he couldn't help but touch his shiny bald head.
"Actually, I don't quite understand what you're saying, but Master Alan can never be wrong."
Roger nodded thoughtfully.
…
After leaving the official area with the information, Roger came to the business district again.
He walked around the wooden shed in the rental area, still unable to make up his mind.
Most of the houses for rent are in Shuguang Town.
This is inconsistent with his scope of activities.
After all, he was going for Jonny Stottle.
The areas where Jonny Stottle appears are all large farms.
Except for the farmer's own house which is cleaner, most of the houses on the farm are sheds where people and animals live together.
Roger couldn't accept the sanitary conditions.
After looking around, Roger found that the Charcoal Inn best met his needs!
But hotels also have their own troubles. After all, you can’t move around in a room that is not your own.
Roger was a little confused.
Before he knew it, he had wandered into the "farm area".
An advertisement in front caught his attention.
…
"Real Estate Sale: Senluo Farm for sale at a low price. If interested, please contact Mr. Smith."
…
"Because the crop failed due to the infestation of turtles, you had to sell the farm to pay off the debt?"
Roger's eyes suddenly lit up:
"The identity of a farmer seems to be pretty good."
He quickly wrote down Mr. Smith's contact address.
…
Night time.
In the single room of the Charcoal Hotel.
Roger was wearing a white crow crown and sitting upright.
He had released the gargoyles early to hunt down Jony Turtle, while he himself was performing his daily Qi-Life Attunement.
But tonight seems to feel a little different.
Roger could sense it.
The mysterious energy within the White Raven Crown has become more active.
And deep inside his body, something was awakened.
That feeling is extremely mysterious.
Eyes opening and blinking.
The strange heat flowed along his spine to his forehead.
…
"You have successfully comprehended 'Chi'!"
…
