"This is the map of the continent that our Guardian Hand has made over the years based on the information they have gathered. Of course, it can't compare to the Arcane maps of the Age of Empires that printed virtual reality through arcane rubbing, but for now, it is the most perfect map that can be achieved with non-arcane means. ”
In the room of a tavern on the edge of the port, Liu Xuanying, Mu Qinyi, Feng Yinqiu, and the invincible king? The Sword of Benevolence was watching Gao Wen take out a large piece of large parchment paper more than one meter square from the wooden box and unfold it on the table, on which countless fine lines and image words outline the terrain of a continent, the fineness and meticulousness of which are indescribable, and the handwriting everywhere is either old or new, and it can be seen that it is indeed as Gao Wen said, it was slowly drawn by spending a lot of energy and time with the hand of the guardian.
"Thank you, Knight Gawain, and thank you to the Guardian Hand for your generosity. Feng Yinqiu nodded. It's just that this map is a priceless treasure for today's Daqian envoys, and the guardian hand is willing to take out this map, so I have to express my gratitude anyway.
Liu Xuanying's eyes have been completely attracted by the map, although Liu Xuanying does not recognize the Euro text on it, but the general meaning of the graphic can be understood.
"Is this the city of Ossin where we are...... But it seems that there is also a sea route to the eastern continent. Isn't that the Inclere over there?" Mu Qinyi pointed to the right side of the map, where a city labeled 'Inclave' was being marked not very far from the coast. The 'Knowing the Language' magic that the High Priest of Sandos personally performed on her was the most advanced, allowing her to speak and listen not only to the Eurotic language, but also to the Eurotic script.
At least from the map, the entire continent of Europe is surrounded by the ocean, and the coastline does not seem to be too complicated in general, purely from the distance, if they take the northwest side to go around Inclave in the southeast of the continent by sea, it seems that it is not much farther than taking the land route. As far as the state of the envoys is concerned, if the Kunpeng giant ship can be repaired completely, it will definitely be much more convenient to take the sea route than the long journey by land.
"No, I can't. Gawain shook his head. Pointing to the lower left, on a huge island off the southwest coast of the mainland, a fire-breathing dragon was drawn on it. "The Dragon Island Strait is impassable here, and those huge beasts regard hundreds of miles around the island as their territory and hunting ground. Facing those flying giant monsters at sea is an absolute disaster. Near the coastline, there are also orc ships frequented, and although they fight each other and occasionally form dragon hunting teams to go to Dragon Island, they have one thing in common: they will attack any human ship as soon as it is found. Even in the Imperial Age, it was difficult to navigate. ”
"Originally, if we continued to the open sea a few hundred miles to the south, we could indeed bypass the dangerous part of Dragon Island, which was also used by Incre a few years ago, when there was navigation and trade with the west coast. However, since the Chaos Storm Zone continued to spread, this route was covered by the spreading Chaos Storm. No one knows what the situation is now, whether it will be navigable or not, maybe you can go to the Storm Temple and ask the High Priest to sense the metaphor of the gods, but the price will definitely not be small, and I don't think there is much hope. After all, the God of Storms had also told believers not to approach the Chaos Storm. ”
"What if you take the north, can you take the waterway route?" Liu Xuanying pointed to the top of the map. Although it seems that it will go farther, the convenience of the sea route is much more convenient than the cumbersome and convenient land route after all, especially there are many ordinary people in the envoy group who have no combat effectiveness, and if you travel long distances, not to mention physical strength, logistics is a big problem.
"The map of the north shows an ocean, just because there is really no continental shelf, but for about ten months of the year it is an endless wasteland of ice and snow. And only in the summer two months when the ice is frozen, there are still countless small islands of ice floes, except for some of the sampan boats of the Northlanders, even the dwarven floating island warships are extremely difficult in them, although your big ships are good, it is still impossible to sail in that environment. ”
"It seems that the only way to do this is by land. After listening to Feng Yinqiu's translation, Liu Xuanying smiled bitterly.
"There are many options for land, but there are generally no two, the safest and safest is to temporarily go south, enter the jurisdiction of the Southern Legion, and then turn up into the Alo Great Plains, and along the southern part of the plain, you can directly enter the Inclave Heights. Despite the detour, the Southern Legion is now the strongest military group on the continent, and there are no more dangerous beasts and bandits in its jurisdiction. The biggest problem is that I don't know if the Southern Legion will recognize your identity, if they really want to make things difficult, it will be a little troublesome, but after all, they are a regular legion that continues the imperial system and spirit, and it is completely different from the degenerate Northern Legion, with the guarantee of our Guardian Hand and the Sunlight Temple, as well as the recognition of the West Coast Mage Council, it should not be a big problem. ”
"Do you have to take some long detours? How much more time will it take? What about the other way?"
"Considering that most of your envoys are ordinary people, and there are a few old men, even if there are chariots and horses on their behalf, it will take about two or three months to reach the jurisdiction of the Southern Legion, and if it goes well, it will take about three months to set foot on the Inclave Heights through the Alo Great Plains. From here, it usually only takes more than a month to go directly to the Aoro Plains, but of course the road will be difficult and troublesome, and even those caravans that often come and go here must hire a large number of mercenaries and guards. It will only go smoothly after entering the plains, especially close to Oroyosta. From Oroyosta to Incre, it was almost two or three months. ”
"In general, it will take an extra month or two to go through the jurisdiction of the Southern Legion, but it is the safest way. It would be a bit of a hassle to go directly to the Auro Plains from here, and even if we had someone as a guide, we wouldn't dare to say that we would be able to avoid all the trouble. ”
“...... Which way does Mr. Feng think he should go?" Liu Xuanying pondered for a moment and asked Feng Yinqiu. "Poor Dao feels that we are many and complicated, and we have a lot of responsibilities, so we should be safe even if we go farther away. ”
What Liu Daochang said is very true. Feng Yinqiu shook her head. "And we can only discuss and refer to it here, but we can't decide what those adults think. ”
Liu Xuanying shook his head: "No." If you can distinguish the pros and cons, the gains and losses, and go to the table together with General Chen, Master Li should also be obedient. After all, in practice they don't interfere much. ”
Feng Yinqiu knew that Liu Xuanying was already a kind word, but in fact, those masters of the Ministry of Rites didn't know anything about it in practice, and almost all of them fell on the head of General Chen. Fortunately, General Chen once led the army to fight and was always able to get these things done. And General Chen attaches great importance to Liu Xuanying's opinions, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he obeys his words. In other words, Liu Xuanying was actually the actual leader of this envoy group, otherwise they would not have left others behind and came here directly to check the map and decide the route.
"So let's go south and cross through the army. After all, we have a lot of people and a lot of gifts, so it's better to be safe......"
"No, I don't think they're going to go south. The invincible king who had not spoken, but was just watching from the side, said suddenly.
"Oh?" the others were stunned. Liu Xuanying asked: "Why did the invincible strong man say this?"
"It's so simple, they're going to go straight to Oroyosta this way. It was the former capital of the empire, and it is now the largest and most prosperous place in the continent, and those old men are about to use moral etiquette to make the four Yi guests obey, of course, they will not miss this place. All you have to do is pick a way to get to Oroyosta. ”
"This ...... Indeed it is. After thinking about it, Liu Xuanying smiled bitterly. According to the current situation, in terms of the mind of Master Li, this possibility is extremely great. Moreover, nominally that Li Dacai is the absolute leader of the envoy group, if he insists on taking this road, there is really no way for people, including Liu Xuanying. “... However, the fact is that it is also the safest way to take the southern road, and the poor road must go back to discuss with General Chen to see if he can convince Lord Li and a few people......"
The Sword of Benevolence obviously got to the point, and Liu Xuanying didn't have the heart to stay here to study the route carefully, and after a few quick glances, he returned with Mu Qinyi, saying that he wanted to find a way to try his best to persuade that Master Li.
"Hehe, this Daoist Liu is really a father and a mother again, and he has worked hard and exhausted, but unfortunately his persuasion must have been in vain. How can those arrogant people who die of reading and think that they have mastered the truth of the universe be able to listen to persuasion? Brother Feng, you must have seen through this by not going with you, didn't you?"
As soon as Liu Xuanying took Mu Qinyi away, the Sword of Benevolence shook his head and laughed, still grinning and complacent, but he actually used Confucian classics to evaluate those adults, Feng Yinqiu really felt strange when he heard it: "...... This one... Your Excellency's culture and learning are so growing that I almost don't understand it. ”
Because the Gawain Knight was next to him, if he said the Shenzhou dialect, it would be a little estranged, so Feng Yinqiu spoke in the Eurotic language, and the Sword of Benevolence also laughed when he heard it, and replied in the same Eurotic language: "That's natural, the cultivation and morality of the warrior of love and justice will always be unmatched." Hahahaha. ”
"Your Excellency the Sword of Benevolence, I heard that you are going to set off with the envoys of the 'Qian' Empire, right?" Gao Wen smiled on the side. "In order to thank Mr. Feng for saving his life, and for his efforts with the envoys of the 'Qian' Empire to quell the turmoil in Osstar City, the Temple of Sunlight and our Guardian Hand have decided to send several Templar Knights led by me to escort you along the way. Thank you for your continued ......."
"I understand, I understand. After all, you don't feel comfortable with us. The Sword of Benevolence sighed. "But it doesn't matter, my loyalty to love and justice can stand the test. If there are many righteous friends like Mr. Gawain, I would welcome them all the way. Your map is still very valuable, and we will keep it for your reference, and we will be sure to let you know as soon as we decide on the route to walk. ”
Gawain soon left, the Guardian with some special duties from the Guardian Hand and the Temple of Sunlight, and having him with him was one of the conditions in exchange for the Temple not caring about the race of Westerners. However, in Liu Xuanying's opinion, the advantages of this condition definitely outweigh the disadvantages, and he agreed to it almost without thinking about it.
"How's that?Brother Feng, what's next?"
In the blink of an eye, Feng Yinqiu and the Sword of Benevolence were left alone, and the Sword of Benevolence thought about it and suddenly asked.
Feng Yinqiu replied: "Naturally, I also followed the envoys. After all, I am now a Counsellor in the Legations. ”
"I'm asking you what you really think in your heart? You can't really be at ease in this envoy group, right? And Brother Feng, I'll tell you directly, how the envoy group should go in the future, that Liu Daochang can't worry about anything, and you may not be able to worry about it either. The Sword of Benevolence looked a little sneering on his face, and the way he spoke seemed to be a little different from what he did during the day. "The old man of the Zhang family drew a good hand this time. When I turned back to seek cooperation with the envoys, it was actually only the only way after our sacrifice failed, and he was also a decisive and courageous person, and I immediately understood it as soon as I told him. The most important thing is that your Lord Li's temperament happened to be caught by him, he and I had buried a secret line in this Osstar City before, and inquired about the situation of your envoys clearly, and he also had a general impression of what those lords of the Ministry of Rites looked like. He told me at the time that he had seen a lot of people who read dead books, and that this kind of person who had read the sages all his life could only be on his lips, but in fact, he was extremely rigid and self-serving, and he couldn't even do a little bit of practical things, so once he did what he liked and helped them fulfill what they cared about, they could control it and do whatever they wanted. He was tempted by a letter. As soon as today's ceremony passed, it was strange that the Confucian scholar Master Li did not regard him, a remnant of Taizheng, as a bosom friend. ”
"And with the accumulation of Old Man Zhang's family over the years, your envoys really have to rely on him to easily walk on this continent. If nothing else, do you have the money? Do you know where to buy supplies and all kinds of items? Even if the guardian hand agrees to help, the so-called non-our race will have different hearts, can you dare to rest assured? So the final decision will actually fall into the hands of the old man of the Zhang family. ”
"The invincible brother can see it thoroughly......" Feng Yinqiu was a little surprised. However, it is not because of what the Sword of Benevolence said, although the things behind these are not simple, but it is not surprising when you think about it. What really surprised him was why the Sword of Benevolence said this. "This... Invincible brother, aren't you with the old man of the Zhang family?"
"I know what you mean, are you saying that we weren't the same raccoon dog in the first place, why are you now saying strange things about him behind your back? The Sword of Benevolence smiled, and his tone returned to the triumphant taste it had before. "But that was when I was obsessed with revenge before, and I hit it off with Old Man Zhang. Now that I have lost my way, the demon obstacle has disappeared, and I only have benevolence and righteousness in my heart, of course I have to draw a line with him. ”
"But this is not to say that the old man Zhang is a big traitor, disgusting and devastating old traitor with a shocking conspiracy, but this old man has endured all the hardships in his life, endured humiliation and hard work to maintain the situation of a group of Shenzhou ethnic groups, and now he has a good hand of cards in hand, and he must use the hands of the envoys to make some fame. Although they have all read the classics of Confucian sages all their lives, this old man has been calculating and supporting him in the wind and rain and in blood and tears for a lifetime, and he is simply a world of difference from that Lord Li, playing with him is not the same as playing with a child. So I'm here to give you a heads-up as well, Brother Wind. If you want to work as hard as Daochang Liu, it will be in vain. ”
"Naturally, I don't have the idle ...... of Daochang Liu" Feng Yinqiu thought about it, he was unconcerned, he was still a little confused when he first set foot on this European land, and later learned that this old friend had actually crossed the sea to become a cult priest, so he tracked it all the way, and now he finally has a result. If there's anything else you yearn for, it's the magic behind the Euroarcane. Especially the realm presented by the eleventh ring arcane before was actually able to stimulate his heart towards the Dao, and even now when he thinks about it, he can't help but be fascinated. "What I want now is to see the arcane of the continent. And I heard that the arcane inheritance of Oroyusta, Incre and other places is a hundred times stronger than this West Coast, anyway, it is inconvenient to brush off the feelings of Liu Daochang and Fairy Mu, I have been in the same boat with this envoy group for several months, so it is better to go on the road with them. ”
"As for you, Brother Invincible. Feng Yinqiu asked the sword of benevolence. "You said that your obsession has disappeared, I originally thought that you were going to lead the Shenzhou ethnic group to do something great with that Zhang family patriarch, but I just heard that you seemed to be quite disdainful of him. So what are you trying to do?"
"No, no. It's not that I'm quite disdainful of him, but I just disdain him for his kind of small family, and I just care about his hometown mentality of the Dazheng ethnicity. The Sword of Benevolence shook his head and shook his head, and his words and expressions were suddenly full of righteousness and awe. "The Shenzhou ethnic group has suffered a little bit on the European continent over the years, but if they do everything to create a situation for them, it can only be regarded as small benevolence and small righteousness at most. In the eyes of people like me, it is naturally a little unpleasant. But we're on the same page, and I'll be with you all the way to Oroyosta, and possibly to Incle. In short, where there is oppression, there is resistance, and where love and justice need to be served, I will go. ”
Feng Yinqiu frowned and looked at the Sword of Benevolence with an expression that he didn't know what kind of expression he didn't know it should be, since he had gone through that baptism of the true god, this friend was like a different person, like crazy and crazy, sometimes with extremely insightful and unique vision, sometimes as if he was talking nonsense in a serious way, I really don't know how to describe it. When you have time in private, you must ask the high priests about it.
"By the way, Brother Feng, there's something I've wanted to ask you for a long time. Today, I finally found a good opportunity to be alone, so I asked unceremoniously, and if you find it inconvenient, it's okay not to answer. ”
The Sword of Benevolence suddenly thought about it, and his expression became a little hesitant, completely lost the heroism that he didn't seem to take anything into account before. Feng Yinqiu couldn't help but be curious, and replied: "It's okay, there is no one else here, just ask." ”
"Good. The Sword of Benevolence nodded. "I remember...... When you are in Shenzhou, you will completely copy the human Dao Talisman, and then recast it untouched. The same was true of the Renaissance mage last time in Ashdale. I vaguely remember what kind of treasure you relied on, right?"
"Taishang Zhengyi Mi Luo Wan has true charms. Feng Yinqiu spoke slowly, and with this word, the expression on his face couldn't help but become indifferent. Although this thing had long since become one with his spirit, it had been a long, long time since anyone had mentioned the name in front of him, or himself. He almost thought that this name was lost in Shenzhou along with the past.
There are not many people who know this thing, but it is not a few, and even many people with high cultivation and vision can faintly guess this from him, such as Liu Xuanying. It's just that the origin and involvement of this thing are too great, and no one wants to mention it, and still in the land of Shenzhou, when this Sword of Benevolence was still called another name, I had seen him borrow the power of the true talisman to make a move. At that time, he didn't ask much.
And this old friend is now asking, no matter what psychology or reason it is, Feng Yinqiu doesn't feel that there is nothing that can't be answered: "The legendary method of the near path, Buddhism seems to be called the Bodhi Dharma fruit, which can perform all the laws in the world." ”
"Well, I seem to have vaguely heard of this thing, and it seems to be extremely unusual. In the past, when I was in Shenzhou, I could fiddle with the Dao Law of Shenzhou, but now that the Euro Continent, which has different laws of heaven and earth, can actually deal with Euro Arcane, this name of ten thousand laws is really worthy of its reputation......" The Sword of Benevolence slowly lowered his head and groaned, and there was a little hesitation between solemnity, after coming out of Ash Valley Town, he seemed to have never shown such a look. And this also seems to be very different from his previous performance. "What the hell is this ......?"
"What's the matter, is it possible that Brother Invincible is suddenly interested in Dao spells again?" Seeing that he frowned and thought hard, the horizontal flesh on his face was almost squeezed into a ball, Feng Yinqiu couldn't help but smile and ask.
"Hehe, that's exactly what happened. Why not?" the Sword of Benevolence sneered, and changed to its original triumphant appearance. "It is not only to be able to smash the mouth with a fist to vomit blood, but also to scare off the jaws of others with a spell, the magic and martial arts, all aspects must be unique, and all aspects must be able to do what others cannot, so that they can be called true warriors of love and justice. ”
