Esdeath shook her head, looked at the pirate ship not far away, raised her hand, and then waved it down.
An ice ball the size of a small warship fell from the sky and smashed the pirate ship into the sea.
Then she threw the dagger to Ling aside and turned around to leave.
"Major, how should we deal with this pirate?" asked the navy on the side.
"Since he has a bounty, let's keep it." Esdeath said, "Wait until he registers at the naval base and then find a place to bury it."
After that, Esdeath snapped her fingers, the temperature on the deck dropped sharply, and Landry's body was quickly frozen, turning into an ice sculpture.
"Okay, move him to a place out of the way." Esdeath said.
"Mr. Annan, please, can you stop training with iron weights? My body really can't handle it." Anderson's voice came from far and near.
"No, no, no, 'iron block' is the navy's most effective life-saving skill. You must learn this," Annan said.
Esdeath looked back and saw Annan walking over with a happy face, while Anderson followed behind with a bruised face.
"It's over so soon?" Esdeath asked, "This training method is of no use at all."
"Special circumstances." Annan said, "We have less than a day to go to Shidao, and we know nothing about it. It just so happens that there is a Donghai know-it-all on the ship, so let him talk about the situation there." "What do we know about this? We are not going there for tourism. We need to find out the local customs and customs." Esdeath said.
"Major Esdeath, you still need to understand this." Anderson said, "Shidao is not the same as the kingdom in the East China Sea."
"There is only one kingdom on the stone island, called the Kingdom of Kunta. Legend has it that this kingdom was established eight hundred years ago."
"Eight hundred years ago?" Esdeath was a little surprised, "That means this country already existed before the world government was established."
"Absolutely." Anderson said, "After all, those walls can't be built in a short time."
"What wall?"
Anderson scratched his head, "This is a bit complicated to explain."
"Some kingdoms on the sea prohibit people from going to sea for certain reasons, which is called sea bans. But most kingdoms just pay lip service to it, and there are no strong measures to stop those who want to go to sea."
"The Kingdom of Kunta is a little different. In order to prevent people from going to the sea, they built a wall along the coast surrounding the entire stone island."
"Wait." Esdeath interrupted Anderson, "Build a wall around the entire island? How much manpower and material resources will it cost? Has it been completed?"
"It has been completed a long time ago." Anderson replied, "Five years ago, as a reporter on the World Government's visiting team, I visited the Kingdom of Quinta, and the bottom of the wall was covered with moss."
"I asked an old man passing by, and the old man said that the wall had been there since he could remember. Not only that, but his mother and his mother's mother also said the same."
"Not only on the shore, but also in this country, there are walls everywhere. According to my observations and the information revealed when chatting with the world government officials, the walls of the Quinta Kingdom were initially only in the capital. As the population continued to increase,
The wall is also constantly expanding, and over time, it has been expanded to the shore."
"As you said, this is an extremely closed country, so why does this kingdom join the world government and let the navy be stationed there?"
"There is no conflict between being closed and joining the world government"
Anderson smiled: "Because this country only prohibits ordinary people from going to sea, and those nobles can apply to the king to go to sea. The newspaper reported two days ago that the princes and princesses of this country went to the Modern Kingdom to buy luxury goods.
News. When I was in a newspaper office, those people would put it in the newspaper every two weeks. They were all about shopping and traveling in certain countries. Later, it happened so often that the newspaper office simply stopped reporting it."
"Also, the nobles of the Kunta Kingdom are very rich, but the ordinary people are hungry and full."
"I've read about Modern Kingdom in the newspaper." Annan interjected, "This country is the most famous entertainment kingdom in the East China Sea, and the consumption level there is not low. Where do they get so much money?"
"Because there is a lot of ore under the stone island." Anderson replied, "Through the ore trade, the Kingdom of Quinta can obtain a large amount of Bailey."
"In order to trade with the outside world, they also built a port town specifically to display and sell their local specialties."
"One of their famous specialties is jewelry. There are many skilled craftsmen in the Kunta Kingdom. The rings, necklaces and other jewelry there are all handmade, and each one is unique."
"The second is their weapons, which are exquisite and durable. It is said that those weapons are polished from special rocks on the stone island."
"A weapon polished by stone?" Esdeath hesitated, "The pirate before was carrying a dagger made of stone. Could he be from the Quinta Kingdom?"
