Section 323 Ancient Humans and Aliens

The acquisition of knowledge always comes at a cost, Caledor couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"It seems that no one is having an easy time, and Ariel must be having a hard time. ”

"It's hard work, after all, I still have to pretend I don't understand when I can be proficient in several languages, and I still have to pretend that I can't do simple math problems that I think are simple. ”

Caledor was embarrassed, looked at Ariel sympathetically and said, "I understand, I have also pretended to be a dish." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Well, that's the abbreviation for rookie. ”

"Oh, noob means, learned. ”

"Do you only have those formal expressions in your Chinese vocabulary?"

"It's pretty much the same, but there are still a few colloquialisms and colloquialisms, because I have always lived in North America, so there are not many opportunities to use Chinese, and it is rare to have the opportunity to accumulate vocabulary on my own. ”

"And what is your favorite language?"

"If you like it, it's still Chinese, although my native language is English, but how to say it, Chinese always gives me a unique attraction. ”

Caledor nodded and agreed: "The breadth and profundity of Chinese culture does have a unique charm for people. ”

"By the way, how many languages do you speak, Parker? I've been talking about my knowledge, but I haven't talked about you. ”

"I..." Caledor didn't know if the language of the Origin Star Civilization counted, but seeing Ariel's expectant eyes, Calledo felt that if she humbly said that she could only speak Chinese and English, she would definitely be disappointed.

Although Calledo knew that Ariel's disappointment did not mean a change in her attitude towards him, Ariel had been a lonely person since she was a child, and only contact with her own kind could fill the emptiness of her heart.

And if there are people who are culturally similar to her, Ariel will definitely be happy.

So Caledor decided to be one of his kind.

"There are about 13,402 languages in more than 800 language families in 13 systems......

After a quick glance through his existing legacy memories, Calledo gave an approximate statistic result, only to find that Ariel froze in amazement.

"Ariel?"

"One... Thirteen thousand... Three thousand four hundred... Zero two..."

"Well, that's right, though it's a little more... But Ariel, don't be too shocked. ”

Caledo's words made Ariel excited at once, and she stood up and slapped Caledo's shoulders with both hands, and shouted, "Thirteen thousand four hundred and two! Are there so many languages on earth?! Parker, are you a monster? Woo woo..."

Ariel's gaffe yells that the people in front of the carriage look back, and Calledo had to reach out to cover Ariel's mouth and pull her back to her seat with his other arm.

"Calm down Ariel, do you want the whole car to know that we are holding an academic exchange conference here?"

Realizing that she was too impulsive, Ariel immediately blushed and quieted down, and Calledo let go of his hand, and Ariel breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm sorry, didn't I push too hard. ”

"No... What, Parker's strength is really great, obviously he was so weak before. ”

"Uh... Don't mention this meme. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Well, it's probably just the funny or special things that happened in the past. ”

"Well, I've learned it again! Thank you, Lapac. ”

"It's okay......"

"Ah, by the way, is it true that Parker said that you can speak thirteen thousand four hundred and two languages?

"I don't know about that, because ...... I didn't learn the language on my own, I was in a similar situation to yours, except that I was born with this knowledge. ”

"Implanting knowledge ...... before birth"

"But it's not the same technology you're using, so there's no risk. ”

Caledor continued to explain this, but Ariel was silent, looking at Calledo thoughtfully, wondering if she was listening to him.

Seeing that Ariel's expression was wrong, Calledo stopped and asked, "Ariel?"

The latter pursed his lips, as if he had something difficult to say.

Calledo was a little confused again, he thought about it and didn't say anything strange, so he didn't understand what Ariel's situation was at this time.

Suddenly, Ariel spoke.

"Actually, I wanted to ask early on, Parker, you are not an ordinary person, are you? ”

"Ordinary people? I'm definitely not... How can there be an ordinary person with so much knowledge like me. ”

"Not about that. Ariel shook her head, stood up and said with a serious face, "I mean, Parker, you're not human, are you?" ”

“......”

Shocked!

Caledor was so surprised that he couldn't speak, and when Ariel said "You're not human", Calledo felt his heart beat for a moment.

Was it the thirteen,four hundred and two languages that made Ariel suspicious, or was there some other place where she had revealed a flaw that she hadn't even noticed?

Caledo's heart fluctuated, he really couldn't understand how he was not a human being and how people would always see through it.

"Don't you refute it... That is, it is tacit, it seems that Parker, you are really a magician......"

"Huh?"

Calledo raised his head and looked at Ariel with a blank expression, he didn't expect that his brain circuit was not in the same channel as Ariel at all, and he asked a question in a very sincere tone that made Ariel almost faint.

"What the hell is a magician? Is there still that kind of thing on Earth?"

Ariel was very confused by Caledo's question, she couldn't believe that there were still humans in this world who didn't know the existence of the "magic envoy", so she directly suspected that Calledo was pretending to be crazy and stupid.

"I didn't expect Parker to use such a stupid way to shirk it, are you thinking of me as a stupid?"

Caledo, who understood that he had been misunderstood, quickly shook his head and quickly explained: "No, Ariel, I really don't know how magic makes this thing..."

"Looks like I'm really being taken for a fool. ”

"Well, that's really not the case, Ariel, listen to me..."

"Okay, don't talk about it, I'll keep this matter a secret because you're a magician, after all, I don't want to lose the friend I just made, and I don't know what you're trying to hide your identity for, but it seems that we can't continue to walk together. ”

Ariel stood up with a look of disappointment and reluctance, and pretended to be indifferent and moved a little farther away from Cale.

Feeling that he was jumping into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it away, Caledo's heart was a bitterness, this Ariel was really stubborn, her father must have worked very hard to raise her!

"So ......"

"Okay! Don't say it, I believe you just say that you are an ancient person or an alien half a century ago, and you say that you don't know what a magician is, it's impossible! Because there is no human in this world who doesn't know magic!"

Ariel's deliberately low-voiced and imposing words amazed Caledo.

"Then if I say that I am an ancient man half a century ago and at the same time an alien, you will believe it?!"

This time it was Caledor's turn to ask rhetorically, because he was indeed an ancient man half a century ago and an alien at the same time.
