Next.

Marfa, the high priest of the Coleman tribe, announced a major transfer decision.

The two elders, "Elder Insect Division" Imhu and "Elder Rain Division" Fufa, led the team and led 7,000 strong Coleman warriors to immediately go south to carry out a secret mission.

He was accompanied by Udo, Old Man Tust, and Carl.

The young and sturdy Coleman warriors didn't know where they were going, thinking they were going to fight the "invaders", but a few of the elders knew that in the southern "Kalatewa Basin", a dangerous area full of dragons, there was a crashed flying mechanical city, and they were going to build a new base where the Colemen could move and live!

But that's not all the truth.

There were only four people, the Grand Witch Priest of Marfa, the two elders, and Wren knew that the team was not going to clear the wasteland, but the fire that the Great Witch Priest had chosen to leave for the Coleman clan.

The rest of the people are ready to fight the "invaders" to the death.

Clansmen, beliefs, ancestral teachings, selection of candidates...

The wise old man took all his sins and duties on his own.

.......

The weather was nice today.

In the stockade, thousands of Coleman warriors were ready to go.

One by one, the young warriors waved goodbye to their families and friends and stepped onto the monster mounts.

In the team, there is also a long stack of domesticated demonic beasts responsible for carrying heavy loads. And their mounts were hung with large and small packages, taking away almost all the trophies of the tribe, iron, artillery, and various Coleman heritage books in the storage ring...

Wren bids farewell to the team in front of the gate.

As the proposer of this tribal relocation plan, he naturally did not follow.

If you go at this time, it will be very embarrassing.

What's more, judging by the current situation. It would take two or three months for the Shining City's large army to advance into the depths of the jungle at the earliest. At that time, no matter how much the basin side, there was already a certain foundation, and it was not too late to go.

Of course, the most important thing is that the witch priest deliberately asked Wren to stay, saying that he wanted to ask him for something.

The Tust and the two were escorted by the Coleman warriors and mounted on the Monster mount.

"Brother Wren, let's go!"

"Hmmm! Be careful, everything is about saving your life..."

"Got it..."

Carl Jr. waved goodbye to Wren, who was crouching on the rock.

In the eyes of this little mechanic, there is no sadness, only impatience.

Ever since the grandfather and grandson had heard Wren talk about the "airship wreck" last night, the old and young mechanics were so excited that they almost didn't plan to set off overnight.

In the eyes of mechanics, there is nothing more obsessive for them than technology. Even if they heard that there might be a black dragon who didn't know how many years it had lived, it didn't stop their determination to explore it in the slightest.

Now that they can travel immediately, the two mechanics are naturally full of anticipation.

And Tust is now in better and better physical condition, and his energy is as full as that of a young man, and he can actually stay up all night studying steam machinery.

The Coleman witch doctor's warm and nourishing secret recipe is very effective, and the old man insists on taking a medicinal bath every day to recover his physical functions.

Now, even without a robotic arm, the old man can walk normally.

......

Two "legendary-level" elders, plus the "Big Muscle Deer God Battle Armor" of Old Man Tust, as well as seven thousand elite Warcraft warriors and the wreckage of that mechanical city.

It can be said that as long as they do not encounter that black dragon, the strength of this group of people is enough for them to gain a foothold in that dangerous "Karathwa Basin".

Wren wasn't worried.

He was relieved to see the long line reflected in his eyes.

This is the spark of civilization...

His thoughts drifted away, but he was pulled back by a female voice.

"Dr. Wren!"

Uduo has been very familiar with Wren during this time, although she thinks this operation is strange, but she still chooses to believe in the decision of the witch priest and travels with her.

But she felt that without her own care for Wren's daily life, this meditator would forget to eat, and the guy would definitely go hungry.

Riding on the back of a snow mastiff, this barbarian chick looked at Wren and did not forget to instruct: "Doctor Wren, I have arranged for Priest Mara to take care of your living in the future. She will prepare food for you on time. Just tell her whatever you need, and she'll help you out..."

"Hmm."

Wren nodded with a smile, and said, "Wuduo, you also pay attention to safety..."

He heard it right, and he didn't think about it.

That's what people mean literally.

This is not something unspeakable in the Coleman mind.

If there is a need, it must be solved, and the men of the clan are like that.

He had already seen the little priest named Mara, and he was a beautiful woman with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes. The point is that he is young and about the same height as Wren...

I have to say that this chick is really thoughtful.

......

The team's journey was delayed for several hours.

Wren watched the tail of the team disappear into the dense forest, and then turned around and went to the bamboo tower of the witch sacrifice.

Recently, because he had to help the Coleman people record and sort out the classics, he came to this bamboo building very diligently.

Several big pythons under the bamboo building are familiar with his smell, and occasionally poke their heads out to say hello to Wren.

"Witch Priest, I'm here."

Wren pushed the door open and walked inside.

Marfa gave a special explanation last night and told him to come to him today.

Wren was not verbose, and asked straight to the point: "Lord Marfa, do you have anything you want me to do?" ”

The old man standing by the window looked at Wren and was equally direct, "You have an extraordinary talent for language learning, so I plan to teach you the 'Ancient Demon Language'." ”

“？？？”

Wren was confused, what was going on, "I've heard Uduo say that the 'Ancient Demon Language' isn't something that only the inheritors of witchcraft can learn?" Why did you teach me? ”

The ancient language of Monkel is a simplified branch of the "ancient demon language", which is a skill that is almost always necessary for the high priest of the Coleman tribe and above.

But the "Ancient Demon Language", except for Marfa, I haven't heard of anyone who will.

Marfa was also direct enough and said, "Originally, this was what 'Ghost Mushroom Elder' Dale was studying. Originally, he would also succeed me as the next Great Witch Priest in the future. But, as you know, the war is urgent, and the elders are on the front lines... Moreover, the 'Ancient Demon Language' has a high learning threshold, and it is impossible to learn it unless it is amazingly talented. Dalle's progress isn't ideal..."

"Oh."

Wren also understood, and said, "So, you plan to let me help you learn first, and in the future... And then teach it to others? ”

Thinking, the old man probably wanted to be just in case.

In case something goes wrong with Elder Dalle, at least the language skills necessary for this Great Witch Ritual can be passed on.

"Yes."

Marfa was also blunt and said, "I plan that you will learn it first, and then let Uduo follow you to learn the 'Ancient Demon Language' later." ”

"Oh."

Wren also understood that he was a "human USB flash drive" that transmitted data, and asked curiously: "By the way, Lord Marfa, what's the use of the 'Ancient Demon Language'?" ”

This continent has existed for countless years, and there are countless scripts of all kinds.

Languages that are not in circulation, except for the occasional archaeological translation that can translate some fragmentary documents, are not very useful.

Marfa: "Communicate with the will of the gods." ”

Wren: "What else?" ”

Marfa: "No. ”

Wren: "There aren't any top-secret texts that need to be translated into Demon Language?" ”

"Nope. Even if there were, it would have been translated by the ancestors long ago. ”

Marfa: "But we have a saying about Coleman Witchcraft. The more advanced the lineage, the less written it is. No matter what transcendent level you stand on, what you think you see is actually only the part of the world that you can understand. The lower the text, the more detailed it is, but the more it also distorts the original meaning. And the demon language is the best way to understand the original meaning of the demon god. ”

“...”

Hearing this, Wren felt that this "ancient demon language" was useless.

He is not a Coleman witch priest, nor does he believe in any gods, and the will of the gods probably does not communicate with him.

If you learn a language by head, Wren must have shook his head and refused when he heard this request.

But with his "smart brain", there is no difficulty in learning a language at all, and there is no harm in learning one more skill.

Without thinking about it, he said, "Okay, then let's learn." ”

But this learning,

Wren realized that the language was not that simple.

......

Language and writing, legend has it that the gods originally passed on the abilities to humans.

The first words were not only visible images, but also contained "meaning" and "knowledge", and only prophets could grasp God's will.

Later, in order to make the oracle accessible to ordinary people, the prophet created a higher script and passed it on to the wise men of mankind.

The wise man then simplifies the text, writes to illustrate, and creates the most simple text layer by layer. (Excerpt from the previous information)

If the "ancient language of Monckel" can be said to be a higher language, then the "ancient demon language" is the kind of writing that communicates directly with the gods.

Why is it so hard to get started?

Because in a word, there are not only patterns, but also "meaning" and "knowledge".

There are not many "ancient demon language" words mastered by the Marfa Great Witch Festival, and there are probably only one or two hundred of them, all of which are simple words.

But even these two hundred words contain a huge implication that low-level characters need to be interpreted dozens of times the number of words.

is like the literary text of Wren's previous life, and it is common to have multiple meanings in one word.

And, the weirdest thing is "pronunciation" and "writing"!

The pronunciation of the demonic language does not seem to fit into the human vocal organization, and it is so low that it is creepy to hear.

If it weren't for Wren's advanced second-order transcendence and awakening a super high "auditory perception", his ears wouldn't even be able to capture that low vocal frequency.

Moreover, the demon language is not a flat font written on paper, but a three-dimensional structure. With the addition of the concept of "meaning", it should be regarded as a four-dimensional or higher-dimensional thing.

Marfa uses her fingers as her pen and light as her ink, writing strange "symbols" in the void.

As soon as these "symbols" were written, it was as if they had come to life. If you look carefully with your eyes, you will find that the font seems to convey some "meaning" and "knowledge" to you.

That's something beyond cognition...

It's like a two-dimensional creature can't understand the concept of time, just like a summer insect can't talk about ice.

Because you don't have that concept of "meaning" in your cognition, you can't comprehend it.

This is the language of communication with the gods!

If it weren't for Marfa's constant explanations and the almost "empowerment" of the meaning of these symbols to Wren, he would not have known what he had just seen, and perhaps he would not have seen it at all.

It's not clear at all in a few words, it's a "meaning".

If you have to translate the word just now, Wren himself will say, "It can only be understood but not spoken."

At this moment, he finally understood why some mysterious transcendent speakers and didn't make it clear.

It's not pretending to be profound, but understanding everything; If you don't understand it, it's beyond your cognitive scope, and you won't understand it.

......

Wren was fascinated by this study, and his head was incomparably bigger.

Even with the help of the brain, he felt extremely strained.

The wisdom brain can remember the pronunciation, can remember the graphics, and can remember the meaning of the explanation of the Marfa Great Witch Festival, but the "meaning" and "knowledge" must be understood by Wren himself.

That "meaning" is still very mysterious, you remember it in the last second, and you may forget that feeling in the next second.

I can't describe it in words, so I can only feel the accurate "meaning" again, and then I can remember what the "meaning" I realized before is...

However, this learning progress is already countless times higher than that of ordinary people.
