The Military Detective is the NPC at the
Prison in the
First Sea who initiates the hunt for
Don Swan. It's the mandatory step to leave the First Sea: he gives you a key, sends you to defeat the
Ice Admiral at the
Frozen Village, then puts you in contact with the
Experienced Captain who teleports you to the
Second Sea. You need to be level 700 for him to deign to speak to you. Fandom classifies him as a Misc-type NPC.
How to get it
At the Prison (First Sea). You need to be level 700 to speak to him.
His quest, step by step
| Step | What he tells you | What you must do |
|---|---|---|
| 1. The threshold | "You must be Level 700 to speak to me." | Reach level 700 |
| 2. The hunt | "DON SWAN HAS ESCAPED!", "We need help tracking him down before he takes over the world!", "My latest intel says he is hiding out with the Ice Admiral at the Frozen Village. Take this key and track him down!" | Take the key and defeat the Ice Admiral at the Frozen Village |
| 3. The departure | "Oh... Interesting. He thinks | Go see the Experienced Captain at Middle Town |
Once the Ice Admiral is defeated, you can speak to the Experienced Captain, who teleports you to the Second Sea.
The detail that saves time
- The third dialogue is not mandatory: you don't need to return to see the Military Detective after defeating the Ice Admiral to be able to speak to the Experienced Captain. Returning to the Prison is purely narrative.
- Beware when reading the source: Fandom's dialogue table associates the phrase "You must be Level 700 to speak to me." with the line "the player is at least level 700". This is clearly backwards: this line is the refusal directed at players below level 700.
Good to know
- Appearance-wise: dark green trench coat with collar, dark brown pants, grey shoes, black cap with a brown band and a small cross-shaped scar on his left cheek.
- He's been in the game since Update 8, the update that opened the Second Sea.
