At this moment, the Yeqi pulling the cart began to reduce its speed and slowly approached the ground.
Rosie looked through the car window, and a brightly lit village slowly came into her eyes.
Apparently that was the village of Ottery St. Catchpole they were going to.
The village of Ottery St. Catchpole is backed by the Perea Mountains. It is a village where wizards and Muggles live together. It is also one of the novice villages in the game.
After getting off the Yeqi carriage that could only be parked outside the village gate, Rosie suddenly felt the cold wind blowing against his face. He quickly took out his winter cloak and wrapped it around himself. He said with a slightly trembling tone: "It's so cold here at night. !”
"The temperature here is indeed lower than that in Brantania city."
Abo smiled and said, "Actually, it's better now. After all, winter is almost over. If it's deep winter, it will be really cold here. At the most exaggerated time, the temperature can be as low as minus 20 degrees."
"It was really cold!"
Eileen responded, "Fortunately, I chose the ghost race and don't need to experience this kind of environmental change."
"Twenty degrees below zero?"
When Rossi heard this, he couldn't help but gasped, "It's so cold, the players in this novice village will not have a hard time in winter."
"Yes, so I rarely come back here."
Abo said with some nostalgia.
Back? Could it be that Abo was born in this novice village? Rosie was keenly aware of the words he used, and asked the other party questions while muttering in her mind.
Abo's eyes moved back from the village gate and smiled softly: "Yes, when I first entered the game, I chose a random birth point and ended up here."
"Then you are familiar with this place, aren't you?"
Hearing this, Irene cast a surprised look at Rosie, "Sister Xixi, it seems that with Abo here, the difficulty of your regular job has been reduced by half."
After hearing Eileen's words, Abo puffed up his chest and was about to boast, but he heard Eileen continue to say: "At least you won't go the wrong way!"
"Okay, you want me, the top explorer on the ranking list, to be your tour guide?"
Abo complained, then turned to Rosie and said, "Has your job of becoming a full-time employee started?"
"Not yet, probably going into the village."
Rosie took out Gsilda's secret letter from the inventory, watched whether the content of the letter had changed, and walked towards the village gate.
"Ding, do you want to accept Geselda's secret order that triggers the agent's regular assignment?"
"Task description: Investigate rumors and information about the Deathly Hallows in the village of Otter St. Catchpol without actively mentioning the Deathly Hallows. Current mission completion level: 0%."
The moment Rossi stepped into the village of Otteri St. Catchpol, the system prompts that arrived as promised reached the ears of the three of them at the same time.
"Ah? It's gone now?"
Eileen, who was waiting for the system to provide other information, looked at the task panel and found that this sentence was the only one on the panel. She was momentarily dumbfounded.
"Aren't you going to give me any other clues? Are you asking not to mention the Deathly Hallows? This task is too difficult!"
Abo raised the corner of his mouth and smiled: "There are some advanced tasks in the game that have very obscure prompts, or even no prompts at all. Players have to explore everything by themselves. You will get used to it as you get more exposure to them."
"Actually, it's not that there are no hints at all."
Rosie said softly in a soft voice,
"The content in the mission description has limited the scope of the mission to this village. Now we only need to find NPCs in this village to inquire about the rumors about the Deathly Hallows. The more information we collect, the better the mission will be completed. The higher the degree. This should be one of the more common identity tasks among agents, but this task gives fewer hints."
"Inquiry?"
"Just ask the NPCs if anything weird has happened in this village recently."
"That's right!"
Erin clapped her palms in sudden realization, "Then what should we do now?"
Hearing Irene's question, Rosie turned her eyes to look at Abo.
"Don't look at me. This is your professional task. You are more professional than me in what to do."
Abai raised the corners of his mouth slightly, spread his hands and said.
"I'm not asking you what to do, I'm just not sure if you are a professional tour guide."
At this point, Rossi chuckled and continued, "At this time, there should be the most NPCs in the bar, and there is a mix of good and bad people there, which is perfect for us to inquire about information."
"The bar."
Abao, who was recalling the route, stopped and looked at the village entrance for a moment, pointed to a path paved with green stone bricks on the right and said, "It will be faster to go here than the main road."
Looking in the direction Abo pointed, he saw three-story stone and brick houses built in a row. The bluestone path less than two meters was built in the gap between these houses and the outer wall of the village.
After walking about a hundred meters, the road forked at the corner. Judging from the map, one path continued along the outer wall of the village to the Periya Mountains behind the village; the other was wider and led to Towards the center of the village.
The Double Ax Bar is located along the street leading to the center of the village. The wooden signboard swaying in the wind is carved with two crossed axes. A thick curtain made of coarse cotton blocks the door, protecting the guests in the bar from the cold outside.
When Rosie noticed the Double Ax Bar, Irene had already taken the lead in lifting the curtain and pushing open the bar door.
The strong smell of alcohol mixed with tobacco hit his face, and the next second, huge cheers and the sound of clinking wine glasses reached Rosie's ears.
"Huh, the sound insulation effect is a bit unreal."
Rosie complained secretly, straightened her cloak to make it fluffy again, and then followed Irene in.
There was a middle-aged man standing at the door of the bar. When he saw Rossi and the others coming in, he glanced sharply at the wand bags on their waists, then pointed to the inside of the bar and said in a calm tone:
"Welcome to the Double Ax Bar. The bar is in the center of the bar. Please help yourself."
At eleven o'clock at night, it is the time when the bar guests are full and drunk.
Just by taking a quick glance, I could already see many NPCs lying drunk at the wine table. There are also many people who are awake, holding glasses filled with fire whiskey in their hands, talking loudly with their friends.
Just by looking at their clothes, Rossi could tell that there were many wizards and Muggles drinking at the same table.
"This village is really mixed!"
Thinking about the novice village where he was born, Godric's Hollow, which was composed solely of wizards, Rossi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Instead of rushing to follow Eileen Arbor to the center of the bar, Rossi took out the agent's ID and gave the middle-aged man a look, then used his interrogation skills and said:
"Hello, I am an agent from the Ministry of Magic. Has anything special happened in the village recently?"
