"How big is the Phoenix Kingdom?"
"It's not big. It's a very small country with less than two million people, but it's very strong."
"How strong?"
"According to the figures published in newspapers at the beginning of each year, it is about the level of annihilating 300,000 demons and losing hundreds of people."
"...a magician group?"
"Probably not. We have paid attention to their recruitment sites. They are all ordinary mixed-races. Only dozens of college graduates go to the military every year. There are not that many to lose."
Just because the exchange students have never left the Phoenix Kingdom during the academic exchange process does not mean that they have less information.
In fact, these eight students and a few subordinates can be said to be the people in the main world who have the most comprehensive information on the penal colony since the current round of conflict between the three realms.
The key points are the "Tianshu News" and the overseas sponsored students of Black Forest College. The former's information is more biased towards the Phoenix Kingdom, and the latter is more helpful for them to understand the overall situation.
"How many countries exist outside of the Phoenix Kingdom?"
"Two, maybe three. The Fatel Orc Empire and the Ongi Kobold Kingdom had not heard any news of heavy losses before we left. There is also a Mountain King far to the south, and we don't know. Can it be considered a country? There is basically no communication with the Phoenix Kingdom."
"Weng Ji hasn't destroyed the country yet? Forget it, there's no need to answer this."
This sentence clearly shows that the three religions are not ignorant of the place of exile. Unexpectedly, Wengji hasn't destroyed the country yet, so he must know that it has some serious flaws and cannot effectively resist the demon army.
In fact, it was not that everyone did nothing in the early years.
The characteristic of the temporary world gate is geographical staggering. In this case, the location of the city or village is difficult to strictly distinguish between being in the main world or the exile. If everyone within the area is not dead when the door is opened, some will always be imprisoned in the penal colony. Most of them are unrelated people, but there are also adventurers who are connected to the church.
Compared with other magic professions, adventurers lack advantages in combat effectiveness, but the exploration magic they master makes it easier to find jobs in peacetime and is more suitable for gathering intelligence.
It's just that the randomness of the opening position of the world gate is too great. So far, only one or two adventurers who have been imprisoned can be contacted again, and it's still very early. None of the adventurers we collaborated with came back, which was also the information we wanted to get a breakthrough from the exchange students.
"Is there a pattern every time the penal colony opens the door?"
"Sorry, we have no access to relevant information at all. Military management there is very strict. Except for the parts published in newspapers, the public has basically no way of knowing the military developments."
A student from the Fountain of Youth Academy added: "Students from abroad said that a gate opened not far from the Kingdom a long time ago. Later, there were only some rumors. They have never even seen anyone visiting from the location of the World Gate."
The archbishops glanced at each other and basically confirmed that the opening of the doors in the exile place was very similar to that in the main world. They were all irregular here and there, and they were far away from each other.
The coordinates of the World Gate are military confidential information. No one in the entire Phoenix Kingdom will discuss what happened in which direction, let alone organize adventurers to approach the World Gate to steal certain benefits. This is very important for adventurers who want to contact the main world again. , is an extremely unfavorable factor, and it is quite normal to find no opportunity to send back the message.
"Next, let's give a detailed introduction to the current situation of the Phoenix Kingdom, Fatel and Pang Xun."
"yes……"
As an exchange student at Black Forest College, what I know most about is the civilian status of the Phoenix Kingdom. As for specific military information, as before, I can only provide public information in newspapers.
Compared with itself, the newspaper analyzed the other two companies more deeply, euphemistically calling them "grasping market dynamics." The combination of public information and the relatively grassroots views of overseas sponsored students is very useful information.
As for the lords outside the three countries, no one here cares about them, because they are too small and can be completely destroyed by a single magic spell. Unless there is something particularly powerful that is brought up by the exchange students, the three religions will not take the initiative. Pay attention.
There are only three countries with certain strength that can affect the outcome of the next war.
The three-party interrogation was not completed in one go. In addition to the conversation that gathered everyone the day before, there were also two interviews aimed at students from the School of Life and the Fountain of Youth. The questions asked were pretty much the same, and the students answered many of them in the past ten days. times.
After torturing the students, it was the bosses of the three religions' turn to have a headache.
"Do your students praise the Phoenix Kingdom too much?"
"Who knows, how about you find an opportunity to recruit a few students to study at the Royal Academy of Fartel for a few years?"
"Hmph. They are all unscathed so far. Have you ever thought about how we will deal with this?"
The Earth Envoy is still skeptical about the information he has received in the past few days.
The high priests are completely indifferent. Because of the source of power of the Life Church, they will not significantly interfere in the war at the exile level. They will only guard their own one-third of an acre and provide some insignificant auxiliary force to various war zones in the main world.
The Archbishop cares more about the influence of the Church of Light.
According to the information learned from the students, the Phoenix Kingdom is clearly favored by the mother of all living beings, but it is an atheist-dominated cultural form. This is not only weird, but also the indulgence of the outer gods towards their dependents.
If a place like this does not suffer a major defeat, the influence of the church cannot be established.
The situation with Fatel is similar. Although there is no external god to protect him, Fatel I himself rose up during the last round of the Three Realms War. The church has clear oracles that show that I was at least a lower-level god or semi-god. Since your empire still exists, it cannot disappear.
Wengji has a relatively large gap in faith. Unfortunately, judging from the students' conversations, their situation is similar to that of the loose lords, and their use value is limited.
The church is powerful in the main world, but in the face of exile countries where influence is difficult to penetrate, its actions will be subject to various constraints.
The other party is the country, not the church, and the contradiction of unequal status will be reflected in all aspects.
Even in the main world, the influence of the church affects a country's strategy from the grassroots up. Unless it is a crisis of national annihilation, generally speaking, it is very rude for the church to request a note or visit to the ruling class, and may even make people Local believers have the perception that "churches come to your door to ask for help," and most of the time they can only coordinate in the middle.
Theocratic congresses such as Omar and St. Anthony are better, but the three religions are mature churches that have existed for thousands of years. Even atheistic countries have not seen it before, and they would not expect normal countries to accept similar communication etiquette.
But no matter what the little intentions are, on the road of "fighting the demons", since the exile has reached this stage and can still maintain its combat power basically intact, it must be used to limit the war to the exile as much as possible.
Afterwards, the high priest took the students home to collect the academic results of this exchange.
The Church of Light decided to make some efforts to see if they could establish some relations with the countries in the penal colony.
Of course, it must be the country that comes forward, not themselves.
