In what phtml files I retrieve it?

Answer 1

From templates you can simply call static block by
<?php echo $block->getLayout()->createBlock('Magento\Cms\Block\Block')->setBlockId('block_identifier')->toHtml();?>
Links in footer generate by layout in module Magento_Theme

<referenceContainer name="footer-container">
        <container name="footer" as="footer" label="Page Footer" htmlTag="div" htmlClass="footer content">
            <block class="Magento\Store\Block\Switcher" name="store_switcher" as="store_switcher" template="switch/stores.phtml"/>
            <block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Html\Links" name="footer_links">
                <arguments>
                    <argument name="css_class" xsi:type="string">footer links</argument>
                </arguments>
            </block>
            <block class="Magento\Theme\Block\Html\Footer" name="copyright" template="html/copyright.phtml"/>
            <block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template" name="report.bugs" template="Magento_Theme::html/bugreport.phtml" />
        </container>
    </referenceContainer>

Or from any code location with the block id:-

class MyBlock
{
    /**
     * @var \Magento\Cms\Model\Template\FilterProvider
     */
    protected $_filterProvider;

    /**
     * Store manager
     *
     * @var \Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface
     */
    protected $_storeManager;

    /**
     * Block factory
     *
     * @var \Magento\Cms\Model\Block
     */
    protected $_block;

    /**
     * @param Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template\Context $context
     * @param Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface $storeManager,
     * @param Magento\Cms\Model\Template\FilterProvider $filterProvider,
     * @param Magento\Cms\Model\BlockFactory $blockFactory,
     * @param array $data
     */
    public function __construct(
        \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template\Context $context,
        \Magento\Store\Model\StoreManagerInterface $storeManager,
        \Magento\Cms\Model\Template\FilterProvider $filterProvider,
        \Magento\Cms\Model\BlockFactory $blockFactory,
        array $data = []
    ) {
        $this->_storeManager = $storeManager;
        $this->_filterProvider = $filterProvider;
        $this->_block = $blockFactory->create()->setStoreId(
                               $storeManager->getStore()->getId()
                          );
        parent::__construct($context, $data);
    }

    /**
     * @return string
     */
    protected function getHtml() {
        $html = '';
        if($this->getCustomBlockId()){
            $this->_block->load($this->getCustomBlockId());
            if($this->_block->isActive())
                $html = $this->_filterProvider->getBlockFilter()->setStoreId(
                           $this->_storeManager->getStore()->getId()
                         )->filter($this->_block->getContent());
        }
        return $html;
    }
}
