After the morning meeting, Gary began to stalk Angdu, hoping that Angdu would teach him the insights of a "singer".
Maybe he was stimulated by his previous actions, or maybe he was feeling a sense of crisis when he saw that everyone around him had successfully digested the elixir. Gary tugged on Ondu's sleeve, with a look of determination on his face.
Angdu was easy to talk to, so he immediately took out the poetry book he had bought before and started reading aloud in front of Gary.
As a result, just after reading the opening part of the second hymn, Gary's face suddenly became strange. Without saying a word, he stood up blankly and left the prayer room.
"Are you shocked by my skills?" Angdu scratched his head, "Su Ge went to call him back. I have just entered the state. There will be more exciting things below."
Su Ge endured the torment in his heart and said painfully: "He may have vomited."
"Is that so? I'll go take a look." As he said this, Angdu put down his poetry collection and left the prayer room.
Only Cecia and Suger were left in the empty room, silent to each other.
"Well, I think Gary went out because he couldn't stand his recitation, but I'm afraid he won't understand..." Cecia sighed.
Su Ge nodded in agreement and said: "For a few moments, I almost thought Mr. Ondu did it on purpose, but I really can't understand why reciting poetry can also be called a 'poet'."
Cecia also nodded, then looked at Su Ge and smiled:
"You look good."
"After all, I'm going to be promoted," Su Ge was a little excited and couldn't help but smile, "Speaking of which, this is the first time I've been promoted. The previous time..."
"I heard it. Now that it's in the past, don't always torture yourself with it. Looking to the future is the best way for yourself."
"Although promotion to rank nine does not require a ceremony, in order to ensure the success rate of promotion, Angdu said that it is best to wait until tonight. If you have anything to do, remember to deal with it before then."
Su Ge nodded, "I understand, Miss Cecia."
Seeing Suge's eagerness to try, Cecilia also laughed and said:
"With your current condition, I'm afraid the original course won't be able to proceed smoothly. Well, let's take a break. If you have anything you want to know, you can ask questions. Today's course will be regarded as answer time."
Su Ge pondered for a while and asked: "Miss Chesia, I want to know about those evil organizations."
"To be more specific," Cecia said with a serious expression, "there are many organizations in the Northern Continent. There are huge differences between them and a very complicated distribution of forces. If you ask me this, I can explain it to you for three days.
Three nights.”
"Then, let's talk about the distribution of power." Su Ge blinked in confusion.
Cecia sighed softly, "I don't know whether I should say you have a strong thirst for knowledge or what. Well, I'll give you a brief explanation, but it's just the simplest kind."
Cecia thought for a moment, took out a map from the side, placed it in front of Su Ge, and said:
"If you want to distribute power, you have to start with the country."
"The Griffin Kingdom we are currently in, the Mogorian United States in the west, and the Kaimos Empire in the northeast, these three countries can be said to be the three most powerful countries in the Northern Continent."
"In terms of area, the United States of Mogorian has the largest land area, but because the land there is mostly mountains and plateaus, the usable land area is far less than that of the Griffin Kingdom, and the Kaimos Empire is even smaller.
Already."
"In addition, there are a large number of islands to the south of the Griffin Kingdom, which is the Wilcoron Sea. There are tribes and forces on these islands. Some even call themselves a country on one island."
"It is the relationships and forces between these islands, coupled with the frequent pirates operating in the Wilcoron Sea, that have formed a small network of forces. You can think of them as a fourth force independent of the three major countries."
"There are pirates?" Su Ge asked in surprise.
"Of course," Chessia rolled her eyes at him, "The Wilcoron Sea and the Kuorid Sea further south are the only sea routes that can lead directly from Griffin to other continents. In a place like this,
Of course there will be complex forces."
"And because of the topography of the Wilcoron Sea, these pirates are very rampant. Relying on their familiarity with the ocean, they have escaped from the encirclement of Griffin's naval fleet many times."
"So there are less than ten safe routes in total now, and even these safe routes are occasionally violated by bold pirates."
"Is it so serious? No one will take care of it?" Su Ge was puzzled.
Cecia raised two slender fingers and said:
"First, battles at sea do not require land, and rely entirely on the power of ships and guns. Although Griffin has a large land area, its southwest direction is blocked by the Davikyach Mountains, which is the longest in the Northern Continent.
, to the north is the ice sea that is covered by severe cold all year round, and only in one direction to the south is the ocean that can be truly utilized, which has resulted in Griffin’s ocean development being relatively backward.”
"Second, it is relatively easier for you to understand, because among those pirates, no, among all the pirates in the world, there are extraordinary beings."
"Extraordinary?" Su Ge was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what Cecia meant.
"As you might imagine, in the vast ocean, there are powerful extraordinary beings, and with just one Griffin's ocean fleet, let alone annihilating them, it cannot even resist them at all."
"However, the area of activity of those extraordinary beings is not limited to the Wilcoron Sea. The oceans all over the world are their home. Therefore, the relationship in the Wilcoron Sea is not so tense. As long as you take an official ship,
If we stay in a safe channel, there shouldn't be any big problems."
Su Ge nodded thoughtfully, "Are those extraordinary beings from the ocean realm?"
"It seems that you have figured out the advantages of the field," Cecia nodded happily, then shook her head, "But that is not the case."
"On the sea, pirates have a unique way of survival. Even the official wanted list is used by them as a criterion for strength appraisal."
"Among them, there are four kings with code names. They are existences that are beyond the wanted list, and they are also the objects that every pirate yearns for. However, each of their identities is very mysterious, and their strength is also
unknown."
"Below these four kings with code names, judging by the bounties on the most wanted list, there are about a dozen pirates with bounties exceeding 10,000 pounds. It is these people who form the powerful class at sea."
"Of course there are extraordinary beings in the ocean field that you mentioned, but as far as I know, none of the four most mysterious and powerful code-named kings are from the ocean field."
"Why?" Su Ge couldn't help asking.
"I don't know either, but I heard that to become the Code King, you must at least reach a high level. Judging from my current strength, it is far from enough."
As Cecia described it, a huge picture gradually took shape in Su Ge's mind.
In the rough sea, storms and lightning coexisted, and in the fierce wind, the sailors slid up and down along with the cables, and jointly controlled the huge ship.
At the end of the storm, a huge ship emitting dim light came approaching. The huge figure crushed everything in its path, but the helmsman standing at the bow of the ship would not even look at the wreckage.
This is how pirates spend every day on the sea. Maybe when they feel bored, they will deliberately start a fight, or maybe when they are basking in the sun, their heads have already been targeted by the enemy.
Sugar was imagining a pirate adventure in his mind, and suddenly said "Hey" and asked: "Miss Cecia, so in the Northern Continent, Griffin is the only one who has close contact with pirates, is that right?
?”
"I don't know about this, but from the map, the Kaimos Empire is located on the Dilka Peninsula, facing the sea on three sides. However, the seas on three sides are all within the scope of the ice sea. It is only in the hot summer that it is
Only the areas covered by ice and snow will melt, revealing routes that have been used for a very short period of time."
"I'm afraid no pirate likes that kind of climate. I think this should also be Kaimos's luck."
With that said, Cecia pointed to another direction on the map and said: "Then to the west, the Mogorian United States, their land, as you can see, the overall trend is long and narrow, almost facing each other on all sides.
Sea, only the central part has large areas of land.”
"In this case, their contact with the ocean is much higher than that of Griffin. It can be said that they can establish a shipyard anywhere along the coast. If we say that their contact with pirates is probably no less than that of Griffin."
"It's just that Griffin has a special existence in the Wilclones Sea, so it's a little more difficult to deal with the relationship with the pirates than Mogorian."
Su Ge nodded, not knowing what he was thinking.
Cecia stared at the map and blinked, "Due to some historical reasons, the Kaimos Empire is somewhat hostile to Griffin, and the exchanges between the two countries are not particularly close. If you meet someone from Kaimos in the future,
Try not to mess with the people of Moss."
"It is said that they claim to be descendants of giants. Men are natural warriors, and women are far stronger than normal Griffin women. Perhaps the harsh living environment on the Dilka Peninsula has created their strong bodies, but the fact is
In this way, they do have unique talents in combat."
"What historical reason?" Su Ge asked.
"Historical issues do not belong to the scope of today's discussion," Cecia ruthlessly rejected Su Ge's question. "Today we will only talk about the distribution of forces. You just need to remember that when you come into contact with the Kemos people, use your brain to think more."
That’s okay, and this is exactly what they are not good at.”
Su Ge was a little speechless, "What about the Mogorian United States? Are there any issues left over from history?"
"That's not true. You can see from the fact that the Church of Destiny was accepted by the Kingdom of Griffin. The relationship between the two countries has been in a very harmonious state from beginning to end."
"In the northern trading city of Seziva, as well as Faerun, the center of Griffin, there are embassies of the Mogorian United States, where ambassadors from Mogorian also live year-round, and hold banquets and invitations from time to time.
The participation of important personnel from both countries also represents the friendly relations between the two countries."
"It is said that it seems to be available recently. In Faerun, if you want to go, you can apply with Brother Selin."
Saying that, Cecia showed a cunning look, came to Su Ge and nudged Su Ge with her elbow.
"But I guess your thoughts are focused on the promotion ceremony in the evening, right?"
A smile appeared on the corner of Su Ge's mouth, and he couldn't hide his excitement and said:
