Chapter 2207 Learning more about Zocarro?

The group followed Strin after the creature called them, and Minos felt it was worth following the native of this world.

On their hour-long journey from their meeting point, Strin would lead them along a special path where none of the subterranean parasitic creatures the group had sensed over the past few days were present.

The group noticed this and learned that there were special paths through this area where they could travel unobserved by these creatures, where the natural resources in the area were abundant and toxins-free.

Amid this, Strin tried to improve the vocabulary of the people in Minos' group, showing them various things and teaching them the names of each of the things they saw on their way.

An hour was enough for the group to learn practically all the names of natural things, such as earth, sky, stone, sand, water, leaves, some living creatures' names, and variations on the basic names.

The language of Strin was not complex. There were several basic words in it that could be modified to form other words that were related despite their differences.

With these teachings, he helped the group become more fluent in his language, one of the six languages of Zocarro.

Then, after an hour of moving around, Strin stopped in front of the group near a cliff in the area they were in.

He motioned for the group to come closer, then pointed down at Minos. "City. That's an area where many creatures live, work, and trade."

This time, Minos' group understood what Strin meant almost immediately. They still had some difficulties, but they understood the main message of this 'ant.'

Minos' group looked down, and everyone there noticed at the base of the cliff the silhouette of a stone city, a place not so big compared to the biggest cities in the Spiritual World but quite busy, with many beings coming and going through the streets.

The streets and buildings there were very different from what they had in the Spiritual World, but none of them were very surprised. They had expected the beings of this world to be physically different from them, and so the cities and such would be adapted to bodies with different needs from their own.

As the group looked around the area, which must have had some 50,000 inhabitants, some of them muttering to each other, Strin explained.

"That is Sree. One tioisk is the time it takes Zocarro to circle Sree three times."

The level 99 robot did the calculations and said. "1 tioisk is the equivalent of 4 months in our measure of time. So 6 tioisk is 24 months or 2 years."

Maximillian looked at the 'ant' and exclaimed. "All that?"

"Zocarro is very big. Believe me, that's not much. If you tried to cross our world, it would take you 100 tioisk, even at this Sovereign's top speed." He said as he pointed at Maximilian.

"Sovereign?" Maximillian and Minos frowned.

"What's that?" Minos asked curiously.

Strin had expected them not to know the nomenclature of the levels in this world and explained. "Sovereign is the name for those who are stronger than Mortals, us, and are at the beginning of their Divine Journey. They are weaker than the cultivators of the Supreme stage."

The people in Minos' group looked at each other and finally received confirmation that there was something above level 100 in this world and that there was a well-defined hierarchy, which meant that they could access the knowledge about it as long as they traveled through this world.

Maximillian clenched his fists in determination, feeling that this was his chance to become stronger. At the same time, Minos thought about the opportunities and problems this would bring them.

"I see..." Minos muttered.

Strin said. "In Examire, you can find a way back to where you came from and also opportunities. Gopok is a place that offers many opportunities and freedoms for space explorers. You can do many things there and even live on Zocarro permanently if you're interested.

I don't recommend that you try this in places other than this civilization. Although some beings on Zocarro may not segregate you immediately, many will try to eliminate you as soon as they can.

Only in civilizations that are friendly to space explorers can you count on a more positive attitude towards you. Outside of those places, it's too dangerous to live. Space explorers have a terrible track record in our world, having caused many wars and tribal problems that have led to the deaths of many native and alien beings."

"Is that so?" Maximilian said. "Then I thank you for your words. But why are you willing to talk to us about all this?"
