"Damn! Why did it get to my head again! I didn't hesitate to turn down his offer, not even giving him a chance to speak. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Lu Li complained in annoyance.

Although he didn't like the old man who was messing around, he didn't make a fuss to the point of hoping that the other party would die.

Crete smiled and spread his hands and explained, "My friend, you have to understand that some things do not mean that if you say no, others will be relieved. In many cases, the struggle for power cannot tolerate the slightest mistake, so for some people, even the slightest possibility, they must completely erase it. Maybe you don't quite know what the weapon you have means, but that's okay, I'll explain it right away. ”

"Say, I'll listen. ”

It just so happened that Lu Li also wanted to know the general situation of the entire continent, so he casually found a chair and sat down and made a gesture of please.

In order to cooperate with his disciples, Elder Renard took out a roll of yellowed leather paper from the shelf, slowly spread it out and hung it on the wall.

Judging from the lines drawn above, it is undoubtedly a map of the continent at the foot of another world, and although it is extremely rough, the shape and approximate area can still be vaguely distinguished.

The first is the shape, the main body of the continent is like two oval butts, and the central city of Kempera is located in the position of a chrysanthemum, like a bridge, connecting the two together.

In addition, there are countless islands of all sizes around, the largest of which is the Kingdom of Dicas, which is mentioned above.

The second is the area, based on the size range marked by the city of Kempera as a reference value, the entire continent should be about the same size as the North and South America on the earth combined, which is a huge continent.

Among them, merchants and travelers mainly rely on the kind of dhows with a displacement of less than 15 tons, to travel between various cities and countries, and on land they rely on tortoises, ox carts, mammoths and other large animals to haul, the transportation is very inconvenient, so the price of special products from one region to another region has to be at least two or three times, or even more than ten times.

Finally, and most importantly, the dozens of countries on the map, hundreds of cities, large and small, are basically all concentrated along the river basin, and the range of activity does not exceed two-tenths of the total area, and the rest are all endless mountains, canyons, hills, forests, rainforests, grasslands, and swamps.

As for the area of the island where the Kingdom of Dicas is located, it is equivalent to two and a half British Isles, hanging high in the east of Kempera, and according to the navigation technology of this world, it will take half a month to reach it, to say the least.

There is no doubt that from this map alone, it can be vaguely discerned that the planet under your feet is likely to be larger than the earth, and it is difficult to say how big it is, because due to the limitations of ship development, intelligent life cannot enter the ocean at all, otherwise those poor little ships will be overturned by the monstrous waves and all kinds of giant sea beasts.

Just as Lu Li began to immerse himself in the curiosity and association of the unknown world, Crete stepped to the map, pointed to the area marked with red dots on the map, and asked, "Do you know what they represent?"

"I don't know!" Lu Li shook his head directly.

"They represent the degree of armed forces, and only cities with more than 50,000 professional troops are marked in red.

There are only ten such cities on the entire continent, and each of them is the capital of a powerful country.

Remember, professional soldiers are not civilians, and although they don't have magical skills and sustainable growth, they can still achieve good combat effectiveness with consistent training.

Generally speaking, an ordinary adventurer of about level 10 can easily defeat about ten to fifteen professional soldiers, and above level 20, he can defeat forty to fifty people, not including some strong people who wear magical items or have awakened a certain natural ability through their own efforts.

Of course, this usually doesn't take you into account, and to some extent, your attack power is far beyond the limit of the adventure level, and in some special cases, it is not impossible to kill adventurers above level 40.

So in general, there is a delicate balance between the state and the state, and between the state and the guild.

Unless someone breaks the taboo and triggers a siege by a neighboring country, a large-scale war is rare.

But your presence, or exactly the weapon you wield, has wiped out that balance, so you are a disruptor, a powerful and unstable factor.

Think about what king wouldn't worry about his dominance and status when a teenage kid could kill a soldier who would take more than five years to train at the touch of a finger?

What's more, the kingdom of Dicas was already in a state of war, and the rebellious nobles tried to overthrow the existing royal family and establish a new state that served their interests, while the royal family desperately wanted to quell the rebellion and ensure that their position was not shaken.

The two sides have been fighting for more than two years, and neither can really defeat the other, and even if you give one side ten guns and a few hundred rounds of ammunition, it can make or break the war.

In this case, if it were you, would you choose to use extreme measures in order to avoid a potentially bad situation?"

Under Crete's explanation, Lu Li quickly understood why the old man, who called himself Baron Geers, was poisoned to death by a glass of poisoned wine less than four days after meeting him.

It turns out that hot weapons such as ordinary rifles, although they are not very effective against high-level adventurers and boss-level monsters in the dungeon, can deal with ordinary soldiers, they are basically the same as on the earth, and they are basically killed or injured when they are hit, and they don't have to worry about someone shooting at them on the other side, which is simply a big killer that is enough to change the direction of the war......

Renard noticed the disgust in Lu Li's eyes, and sighed slightly: "Alas, it seems that you have understood. If you want to retaliate, I can give you a list of the rebel nobles involved in this matter, and with your current strength, it should not be a problem to kill them. ”

"Forget it, I don't want to get involved in this kind of intrigue, let them go. Lu Li refused without hesitation.

"You really gave up? This doesn't look like your character! You know, the Crow Squad just beat your people and tried to steal some steel, so you killed them. Crete teased with a little surprise.

Lu Li smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No way, who let them stay so far away." I've heard that it takes half a month to reach the kingdom of Dicas from Kempera, and at least a month and a half to two months to go back and forth, so I don't have so much time to waste. ”

Joke?

As a person with a little bit of ancient maritime common sense, he would not take a small wrecked ship that could capsize if he encountered a little more wind.

As the so-called gentleman is not too late to take revenge for ten years, even if he wants to do it, he has to wait until he gets a reliable ship from the earth, otherwise he will sink to the bottom of the sea halfway and drown, and there will be no place to cry......
