Returning to Orchid Town from the Black Death Continent will pass through White Elephant City. Chen Xing stopped by the way, no matter what he said, he was also a protégé of Fo Yongqi University, and there was no reason to pass by the master and not visit the master. By the way, he also wants to visit Akita, and if he needs to in the future, he can also pull the other party in.

After picking a few bottles of good wine and buying some expensive gifts, Chen Xing came to Baita College, first found Akita, and then went to visit Fo Yongqi's home together.

"Classmate Chen, why are you so polite, you don't need to bring anything to the teacher, otherwise I will drive you away next time." Buddha Yongqi said with a smile. When a student comes to visit, the teacher is naturally happy.

"People are big town guards, there is no shortage of money, teacher, don't be polite to him." The fat man Akita persuaded on the side.

"Although Chen is on the side, he also has to find time to study more and improve himself." Buddha Yongqi said earnestly.

"The teacher is right, knowledge is the ladder of human progress, and we must not give up learning at any time." Chen Xing nodded and said, his attitude was very correct.

"Haha, well said, well said!" Fo Yongqi said with a thumbs up.

Throughout the afternoon, the three of them had a good time and chatted.

"Hacking has been getting more and more rampant lately, and the activity has been more frequent in recent months than in previous years." Fo Yongqi suddenly talked about the clear network system. He is one of the scholars on duty at the World Network Monitoring Center, so he naturally knows this inside information.

From a political point of view, what he said was highly classified and should not be brought up on such occasions. But the scholars were keen on academic research and were not particularly sensitive to politics, and Chen Xing and Akita were his protégés, so they were unguarded.

The speaker had no intention of listening to the listener, but Chen Xing was very interested and asked, "How can this be?" ”

"I haven't found the reason yet, maybe it's because Nova has been around for too long and the system is outdated, so that hackers can figure out the rules and find vulnerabilities that can be attacked." Fo Yongqi said.

"Isn't there a solution?" Chen Xing asked again.

"We're already in the process of debugging the alternate main mind. Starting next month, Hella will take over some of the social systems and serve as a secondary checksum for Nova. ”

Hela is one of the world's "three major AIs", existing as Nova's backup mastermind, the White Tower Academy rarely mentions Hela's affairs, and most people only know Nova of the bright web and the housekeeper of the dark web.

Chen Xing's pupils shrank slightly, and the so-called "secondary verification" is to use Hella to monitor "Nova" to reduce the error rate.

In other words, Sola needs to be extra careful next, otherwise it will be easy to find clues.

Coming out of Fo Yongqi's house, Chen Xing invited Akita to a bar near the college for dinner and catch up on the past.

The waitress brought affordable collegiate snacks, potato wedges, fried chicken wings, and fried onion rings. Chen Xing ordered a bottle of the most high-end Kraken red wine. The waitress waited a while before she reacted and ran into the bar to get a drink.

There was some dust accumulation on the bottle, and it looked like it had been left for a long time. Very few people in this kind of place can afford to drink the Kraken, and it is usually an ordinary manor wine for a few gold coins.

"Brother Akita, what do you think of the current situation in the country?" Chen Xing asked seemingly casually.

From the previous exchange, Chen Xing knew Akita's origins. He is from the Weasel Principality of the Ambergris River, and his family is a minor nobleman in Dragontongue City.

Dragon's Tongue City is even more remote than the Great Mountain Range, located in the uppermost reaches of the Longshu River, where the north and south of the Longya Mountain Range separate. Akita studied at the university in Dragon Tongue City, then went to the Monitor Lizard City Noble College for graduate school, and then went to the Ice Blue City Noble College to study for a doctorate.

The Noble Academy of Ice Blue City is a gathering place for the powerful, but there are very few people studying for a doctorate. Most of the children of the powerful will choose to join politics or the military after graduation, and the highest is about the same as graduate school, and they do not need to specialize too much in academic research.

Therefore, a small nobleman from a remote area like Akita can also go to the academy of a large nobleman, but only if he is good enough.

After graduating from the Ice Blue City Noble Academy, Akita was invited to the White Tower Academy to follow the scholars of Fo Yongqi University. Although it is not good to pick up girls, it is definitely first-class to engage in academics.

"I don't specialize in this, but I occasionally listen to my colleagues talk about ......"

The two things that men like to talk about the most are women and politics, and Akita is no exception.

"The domestic situation will inevitably be divided into three major parts, the royalist party, the queen party, and the princess party."

"For now, the royalists are the most powerful and have the deepest roots. But once the old king dies, the royalists will be leaderless, and they will inevitably fall apart and fight separately. ”

"Of the seven northern countries, the two kingdoms of Red Dragon and Black Feather are the princess party, the three kingdoms of Chiyan, Silver Claw, and Black Spear are royalists, and the positions of the two kingdoms of Weasel and Hanling are unknown."

"Bronze Hammer Grantham, the lord of the Red Rock Kingdom, is upright and hot-tempered, and is a diehard loyalist of the Malan royal family, and has a firm stand. The Chiyan Mountains are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they must be the most difficult bone to gnaw on for the Northern Alliance. ”

"Wei Haitang, the lord of the Silver Claw Country, is arrogant, refuses to be subservient to women, and has a bad relationship with the Black Feather Principality, so it is impossible for him to fall to the Northern Alliance."

"The lord of the Black Spear is a low-key person, rarely appears in public, once served as the commander of the Imperial City Janissary, loyal to Malan XXII, and married the eldest princess of the Malan royal family during his tenure, it is rumored that they are loving husband and wife, and it is unlikely that they will betray the Malan royal family."

"But the three royalists are scattered territorially, and there is the Duchy of Black Feather of the Princess Party in the middle, and the three lords have different personalities, they don't like each other, and they lack marriage, so it's difficult to twist into a rope."

"The two countries of Weasel and Hanling are located on the edge, and the land is mostly mountains and forests, and the comprehensive national strength is weak, and the position is wavering, and whichever side is stronger will fall to which side."

"The situation in the South is more complicated than in the North......"

"The Ten City-States have never been involved in domestic disputes, but have concentrated on defending the Great Wall of the Twin Empires against the enemy from the central region. The Principality of Tezera guards the southeastern gate and will not easily get involved in disputes. ”

"The position of the River Sparrow and the White Night Empress Party is clear, and the five eastern countries, the territories of Lyra, Norton, Red Mulberry, Dawn Moon, and Ness are connected, and they are all royalists, and they can be twisted into a force that is enough to fight Triris."

After some analysis, Akita concluded, "So in terms of the current situation, I am more optimistic about the demon princess of the north. ”

I have to say that Akita's analysis of the situation is still very good, from the topography, to the comprehensive national strength, to the relationship between the elites of various countries, there is a certain degree of understanding.

What Chen Xing lacks around is such a talent, although he has the memory of the previous life, but he has always been the perspective of a mercenary group captain, and he only hears about the upper world, and he can't tell whether it's true or false.

"Brother Akita really learned to be rich and five cars, and his analysis is the first to go." Chen Xing praised from the bottom of his heart.

"Everywhere, I'm hearsay, nonsense, I can only use it as an after-dinner pastime, not seriously." Akita said with a wave of his hand.

"Brother Akita is humble." Chen Xing changed his words and said, "I don't know what my brother's plans are in the future, will he stay in Baita Academy for further study?" ”

"That's pretty much it." Akita said.

"Now that the situation is turbulent, Ambergris River is facing a reshuffle, aren't you ready to go out and work hard?" Chen Xing guided.

"What do you mean, brother?" Akita wondered.

"I can be regarded as making a name for myself in the Northern Wilderness, forming a hanging skeleton alliance, several towns are united, and now there is no shortage of anything, but there is a shortage of talents." Chen Xing said straight to the point.

"Haha......" Akita understood that Chen Xing was recruiting him, shaking his head and saying, "I studied electronic technology, which belongs to the manufacturing industry, and I am not very good at management, even if I go, I guess it won't help much." ”

"That's ......," Chen Xing was slightly disappointed.

"But ......," Akita said after a moment of silence, "if my brother really wants to fight for the world, I can recommend someone to you." ”

Chen Xing's eyes lit up, "What person?" ”

"This person is much better than me." Akita looked yearning, "Especially in politics, I am like a firefly and a bright moon in front of him, the light of a grain of rice." ”

When Chen Xing heard this, he was a little excited, and he hugged his fists and said, "Then there is Brother Lao to help introduce you." ”

Although he does not have the intention of competing for the world at this stage, every man has the dream of competing in the Central Plains. If there are conditions, who doesn't want to live a life of drunken beauty on the knees and waking up to the power of the world?

Maybe one day, when the time is ripe, he will lead his troops out of the mountains and break out of a sky of his own.

Therefore, talents must be reserved in advance.

"It's easy, send a message saying you have a drink, and people will come." Akita said confidently, and then added, "If you don't think it's appropriate, send back two bottles of beer, no loss." ”

Come when you have a drink?

Two beers and sent them back?

Chen Xing couldn't help but be a little puzzled, he came and went, what kind of big man was that, he didn't even have the most basic arrogance.

I still thought about looking at the thatched house, but I didn't expect it to be the same as a wine bag and rice bag that cheated on eating and drinking. Compared to Akita's previous description, the gap is too big.

And most importantly, how could a person who came running over when he heard that there was alcohol in a third-rate bar have a relationship with those powerful people in the city?

If you are not in the circle of the powerful, how can you understand the situation?

But Akita is not like a person who can lie, and since he came into contact, he is still honest and reliable.

Anyway, as far as the two bottles of beer are concerned, it is good to see them, and I hope you don't be too disappointed.

A moment later, the man in Akita's mouth came to the bar.

He is very tall, almost 1.9 meters, thin, with unkempt hair, a stubbed beard, some dirty clothes, exuding the smell of alcohol all over his body, drooping eyelids, deep dark circles under his eyes, and looks like he has not gotten enough sleep and has been drinking all night.

"I said......" Akita saw the other party's sloppy appearance and looked helpless, "Didn't I ask you to dress neatly?" ”

"Drink and dress neatly, and it's all over when you drink." The sloppy man sat down with a big grin, as if no one was around, and slapped his big hand directly on Akita's fat shoulder, "Okay, at least a dozen beers, brother, I haven't slept for several days, I can't sleep without a little alcohol!" ”

At this moment, Chen Xing's heart is cold, he was cold before he saw it, and he was cold for the second half after seeing it. This kind of hanging child looks like a military advisor, but more like a hooligan ruffian.

To be honest, the reason why he is still sitting here is completely to save Akita's face. If it had been someone else, he would have stopped accompanying him a long time ago.

"Okay, okay, as long as you can satisfy this gold master, you can drink as much as you want tonight." Akita said as he faced Chen Xing.

"Gold Master?" It was only then that the sloppy man noticed that there was another person opposite, grinned, and stretched out his thin and big palm towards Chen Xing, "Lin Shiyuan, fortunately!" ”

The person is very vulgar, and the name is quite elegant, but Chen Xing didn't shake hands, just raised his glass, which was a response.

It's not that he judges people by their appearance, but that the other party really doesn't look like a person who does the right thing. He is a lord after all, and his status is far beyond ordinary people, and it is impossible for him to shake hands with a person who looks problematic so inexplicably.

"Haha!" The sloppy man was not angry, withdrew his hand, picked up Akita's wine glass, drank it with a clatter, and made an "ah" sound, which seemed to be very refreshing.

Akita smiled awkwardly at Chen Xing and explained, "He is like this, surfing the Internet all day long, and he has insomnia, but he still has the ability." ”

"Hey, what skills do I have, my skills are to drink, write two small poems, and talk about the wind and snow." The sloppy man said with a smile, not serious.

"Don't be poor, be serious." Akita said solemnly.

"Am I not serious?" The sloppy man looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, "It's good that I didn't lie down and talk to you." ”

"If you want to drink, get serious with me!" Akita threatened.

"Okay, well, I'll listen to you." As soon as he heard that he was not saved, the sloppy man immediately sat up straight, straightened his face, and looked serious and serious, "Big brother, please speak!" ”

"Today, let's talk about the situation in the Ambergris River......" Next, Akita repeated the situation he had analyzed in front of Chen Xing before, and then asked, "Do you think I analyzed it correctly?" ”

The sloppy man smiled and patted Akita's shoulder, and said regretfully, "Dr. Akita, you are still so naïve......"

"How could I be naïve?" Akita's eyes widened and he looked unconvinced, as if such conversations often happen.

"Demon princess, it's just the ...... in the worst situation"

In an instant, the cynicism on the scruffy man's face vanished, and his gaze became deep and serene.
