After putting away the "Careless Detector" and winding up all the wires, Kuka couldn't hide his relief.
Then, he took the map book placed on the table aside and completely unfolded the folded part in front of Adaloni, so that it covered more than half of the table.
"Map? Which area?" Adaloni asked curiously.
Although he had lived in Crusted for a long time in the middle of the Third Era, he had never systematically studied Crusted writing until he was sent to Senel Prison.
Even though dragons are inherently powerful and intelligent, and their learning ability is one dimension higher than that of humans, no species, anywhere, will learn knowledge they have never seen before.
Adaloni was no exception. During the days of Crusted, he basically had no chance to read many texts. For the fear of the defectors and his friends, the people of the old empire were unwilling to take the initiative to contact them, let alone systematically contact them.
Teaching words.
Kuka could naturally feel this, so he put his finger on the top area of the map and said:
"This is the military situation map of the Crusted Extreme Cold Zone, produced by the "First Federal Military Factory". Look, in the corner is their steel seal, as well as a special defense code. After a series of complex cryptographic operations,
It can transmit some military information to the front line through the map, which is concealed enough."
"That's right. It's much safer to understand the general situation first before heading north." Adaloni said with a slight embarrassment.
"But then again, if you want to get more help within the Federation, especially during the war, you have to learn the Crusad language, Adaloni." Kuka said bluntly:
"If you encounter local armed forces that are not under federal jurisdiction in the wilderness, such as "gold diggers" and "relic hunters", as long as they know the written language, are literate, and understand the knowledge, they will generally give them more respect. They will not
Deliberately hurt."
"Why? I'm curious." Adaloni said confused.
"Because of the expectation and desire for [order]." Kuka explained:
"Indeed, in the early stages of the "Careless Man Virus" outbreak, people would be extremely selfish and self-interested. They would like to hunt down all weak targets and plunder resources to protect themselves. But now is no longer the era of chaos, ignorance, disorder and barbarism.
"There is a consensus within the Federation that according to normal development, the war should have ended at least 150 years ago, order should have been reestablished on a small scale, and then the "unintentional people" should have been eliminated across the entire continent, and the suffering compatriots should have been liberated.
"Master Vasily also told you about David Rurik the other day. If it weren't for the struggle for interests at the top of mankind, we would have won long ago."
"Indeed, after hearing Vasily's story that day, I also felt angry and regretful." Adaloni agreed.
"In fact, since the establishment of the Federation and the situation stabilized, successive chief executives have attached great importance to the issue of education. Even if the war on the front line is tense, the cultivation of talents in the rear cannot stop."
"It's a little hard to understand. Since it's a war, shouldn't it be more important to invest in defeating the enemy and then talk about the rest?" Adaloni asked from the perspective of a dragon who admires strength.
"Oh, there was indeed an argument." Kuka sighed:
"But the top brass of the Federal Council are not stupid. As I mentioned just now, if this kind of selfishness and self-interest continues without the restraint of education, human beings will become barbaric and civilization will gradually disappear. The power of individuals is very limited.
, even if you, Adaloni, dragon clan, can destroy a city, if the entire Crusted human race is against you, how long can you hold on?"
"Not to mention the entire federation, if there are a few level 3 or above magic power users, I will have to run away." Adaloni admitted generously.
"So, if a team is full of such self-interested people, humanity's overall war against "unintentional people" will quickly fail. Human nature is ugly, sinister, and abominable. There are many independent settlements that are not controlled by the federation.
It was precisely because of internal fighting that it became ruins," Kuka said:
"Therefore, the Federal Council strives to attach great importance to education and popularize moral concepts such as solidarity and cooperation, and its most important manifestation is the knowledge of words. Knowing words means that you have received education.
It means you have moral values, have a bottom line in doing things, and are more likely to follow the rules.
"Even villains who pretend to obey these concepts will rationally judge the costs of gains and losses once this atmosphere is formed, and finally return to abiding by rules, [order] and contracts.
"Besides, as long as these independent armed forces can rescue literate, educated humans and return them to federal-controlled cities, the committee will usually immediately compensate them with supplies and military equipment. Regardless of their research direction or their learning ability, these people are
The backbone of post-war reconstruction.
"So, I will give you some books another day, such as "Introduction to Cruise German", "Detailed Explanation of Northern Grammar" and "Yin Fan's Dictionary". Dragons usually have very strong learning abilities, so you should be able to master them quickly.
?』
"That's natural." Adaloni showed rare confidence.
"Okay, now back to this map." Kuka explained while pointing to the information on the map:
"The broad arctic special zone stretches from the endless ice ocean in the west to Nebusk, a border city that once bordered the Eventre Empire. The entire northern cold ice field is under the jurisdiction of the special zone. However, the area where we are at war with the "Heartless People"
Basically, they are all west of the Ice Mountains. After all, where there are humans, there is a possibility for "Wuxin people" to exist."
"Oh." Adaloni seemed to understand.
"The situation around Mayang City is complicated and the battle situation is unstable. It is very dangerous to lead a team through hastily. Moreover, I heard that there are many self-destruction attack "body-exploding careless people" there, and there are also a few high-level hostile lost ones.
, not safe.”
"Then...which route should we choose?" Adaloni asked.
"This one." Kuka almost drew a semicircle on the map with his finger in the area under the jurisdiction of the Extreme Cold Special Zone, and explained:
"We have to cross an area with higher war intensity. It is said that Morun's victory outside Xinfeng Town is almost impossible to repeat. After all, a large-scale "thermite incendiary" attack consumes too many resources. It can defeat the Lost in a local battlefield.
It would be nice to create a psychological shock.
"It is simply impossible to break through the battlefield with the help of artillery fire and magic power." Kuka paused for a few seconds and added:
"The north of Binglin City is a forest area that is completely controlled by us, called the Far North Forest. We Crusted people don't like to fight in the forest because we can't get the artillery advantage. Coincidentally, the "Heartless People" in the Federation
"They don't like forests either. The endless water vapor will interfere with their sense of smell, eliminating the advantage they rely on for survival."
"So we have to go through?" Adaloni asked.
"Cross across." Kuka crossed the forest area on the map with his finger and said:
"Through the Old South-1 area, ahead is the Old Water Valley area, the area with the largest flow of the North Mamouse River. The river network is densely covered, but it is basically frozen in winter. There is a seasonal lake further south, but if you go north now, you should
Can defrost most of it.
"Here, here, and here." Kuka pointed to three settlements and said:
"It's the old Beisen City, Davidsk and Kanosk. There are still a few people with supernatural powers living in one place, and the other two are in ruins. They are paradises for the lost and those private armed forces. Now the Federation does not have much energy to go to the north.
Rebuild the ruins, but there are few people there, so you won’t be in danger. If you are lucky, you can come across the technological products left by the old empire.”
"This river is not the end, right?" Adaloni guessed.
"Indeed. The "Besluna" area is in the tributary area of the Northern Mamous River. It is sparsely populated, but to the north is Magic City, the only industrial city controlled by the federation in the extreme cold zone. It is said that there are still more people in that area
A "ghost castle" that occasionally appears may be a sequential monster that is highly related to "Plamini"." Kuka further explained:
"Whether you arrive directly near the wind wall or find the castle, it means you have reached the direct path to "Plamini". If you fail to break the wind wall on the first journey, you can generally go to Pveginskva first.
In Sirisk, there should be a lot of supplies in the two town-sized settlements.
"If I remember correctly, those two places were voluntarily evacuated under the order of the previous chief executive, and they should be well preserved. If everything goes well, you can arrive at Demonic City first and then make subsequent plans.
"
Adaloni studied the map carefully for a while, briefly compared it with the corresponding distance scale in old memories in his mind, and sighed:
"It's going to be a long journey."
"But you won't be alone. Your team will be equipped with a radio and can contact us at any time. Look, Adaloni..." Kuka pointed to the five settlements just mentioned in turn and said:
"These five locations are all named after the federal chief executive and are called the "Five Great Cities". A hundred years ago, they were the only passages through the western part of the extreme cold zone. If conditions permit, the routes you have taken and the information you have obtained
It will play a vital role in the subsequent Federation's complete recovery of the north and the restoration of [order].
"To use what you just said, the first step to building a world where all races live in peace is to completely defeat the "unintentional people", eliminate the "virus", and reconstruct civilization and [order].
"Oh, by the way, I just remembered. There was a princess in the old empire who was said to have walked into the "Crimson Demon Realm" by accident and completely disappeared. She had similar ideals. She should have lived around the 25th generation of Yin Fan.
.”
"Is it possible that she has met Lite Hain?" Adaloni asked, his voice softer and fainter.
【In view of the general environment,
"Maybe, but I heard that as long as "Klassen's Mask" is activated, it is possible to enter there and rescue her. The information left by the old empire shows that she and the god behind "Plamini" "The Lord of Eternal Red"
