Chapter 2667 The Map of the Violent Sea
Minos listened to Leger and nodded in agreement, feeling that there was no reason to doubt this man now. His Incorruptible Heart was telling him that there was only sincerity in the words of the level 115 Supreme in front of him, and he really wanted to hear about the journey through the Violent Sea from someone who had already successfully traveled through it twice.
"I agree to make a deal," Minos said as he showed one of his hands to Leger. "In exchange for your information, we'll work together when we reach Uzira."
Leger hadn't expected such a quick decision from Minos, but he wanted this deal as much or more than Tiolos and the level 112 human.
With a smile on his face, he shook Minos' dominant hand, while Tiolos clapped one hand in satisfaction. "Perfect. Let's sign our agreement."
They quickly found something to write the rules of their relationship, with each side swearing an oath of sincerity and commitment. The Minos and Leger groups just watched their leaders in silence, but each individual there knew the potential of this alliance.
The Sovereigns led by Leger wanted allies more than anything. They had already heard from their leader how complicated it was to enter Uzira and the harsh conditions on the continent for newcomers. Having Tiolos, Wovar and two other Supremes would be of great help.
Meanwhile, on Minos' side, everyone there really wanted to find out more about Uzira than the rumors and sparse information they had obtained over the years researching the place while at Armhands' headquarters. In particular, the extremely dangerous journey across the Violent Sea could claim their lives and end their journey. Anything that would lead them to survive that journey was very welcome now.
"It's good to have friends anywhere in the universe, I suppose," Leger sighed as he said in relief. "But in Uzira, that's something altogether more important and crucial. The idea of conquering something individually doesn't exist there. The continental powers, and even small tribes, are so united around the idea that an individual alone is weak and the collective is strong, that there are hardly any forces with weaknesses on the continent.
There are certainly groups that are stronger or weaker. But they are firmly governed and share an attribute of unity and loyalty that makes such a reality seem unreal.
But perhaps that's why they are the closest thing to the Upper Realm in the entire universe." Minos remained silent, his gaze narrowed and his expression unreadable. As he listened, he couldn't help but connect the dots in Leger's speech, forming his own conclusion in his mind.
'When one ascends to the Upper Realm, they don't go alone, but have the opportunity to take their entire lineage with them. Union is nothing strange when you know about it.'
"Anyway, be aware of this and don't be surprised when you come across the first enemies in Uzira. They will be extremely passionate about the downfall of their comrades or family members, so be careful. A single mistake at the start of our journey can put entire tribes behind our heads.
And in that place, more than any other, if a greater force doesn't intervene in a given problem, it can only be solved by the extermination of one of the parties."
Given the most important warnings, Leger changed the subject. "In any case, be vigilant. But before we reach Uzira, a long and dangerous journey awaits us ahead. We won't be sailing together, but you must be careful and follow in our footsteps. The Violent Sea has its ways, its extremely dangerous and active sea clans, but also its supernatural phenomena.
The journey to Uzira can take from 4 to 6 years, depending on these conditions which vary greatly from journey to journey. But there is basically one safe route. All the others lead to areas of extreme special phenomena, the nuclei of sea tribes, ancient sea battlefields, cursed areas, etc.
There are certain things about the journey through the Violent Sea that you will only understand by seeing and experiencing for yourself. But be prepared. Things you think don't exist do exist in the dark sea." He said, his eyes wide and his voice deep.
Taking a white sheet of paper, 2 square meters in area, he drew on it with a brush.
"We're here," he said as he drew the figure of a cultivator, followed by a separating line. "That's the west coast of Oqia, and heading in this direction is north." He drew the 'N' and an upward arrow in the appropriate position.
"To take the least dangerous route to Uzira, we need to leave our current point and travel 2,000 kilometers to the northwest. Then, travel for 11,000 kilometers to the west and another 12,000 kilometers to the southwest.
It's not a long journey, but in many parts of the way, you have to travel slowly, so it will be a long journey.
If you follow these directions, you'll have a safety lane where, if you have to make maneuvers, it won't get in your way too much. But I don't recommend staying off the route for too long. If necessary, take detours and try to get back to your planned route as soon as possible." He represented this on the drawing before erasing it, leaving only the recommended route.
"How much room for maneuver is that? I mean, how far can we go safely?" Ruth asked.
The Supreme looked at her and shook his head negatively. "I don't know. I haven't been able to test it for long. On my first trip, I was fortunate, and my group hardly left the route we took. On my return, the detours I took were a maximum of 50 kilometers. But I may have been in great danger without knowing it, or I may have stayed in the safe lane. There's no way of knowing.
But I wouldn't go very far if I were you. This is particularly true for these two areas." He marked the places of greatest attention, with triangles with exclamation marks inside them. "In these areas, there are powerful sea creatures. The deeper you go into the Violent Sea, the greater the dangers.
You will encounter various phenomena and things on your journey, including ghost ships. Don't be fooled. Many places and things that seem peaceful are actually the closest to death you'll ever come."
He finished his markings of the places he knew one would have to be most careful of on this trip, before finishing.
"That's all I can do for you for now. Unfortunately, I can't warn you too much, as I haven't really had any other experiences. But, as I said, be prepared for anything. The Violent Sea is special and carries wonders that can be totally different, depending on who is seeing or experiencing them."
