16. Look for clues
There is a kind of leisure, which is called everyone is busy and I am alone.
The red sun and white clouds, the green grass and blue sky, the quiet countryside, and the long paths, isn't this the scenery that countless people yearn for? I couldn't find a place like this in my original world.
Speaking of which, I've always faced this different world with a mentality of playing games and traveling, and although I sometimes worry about "what if I can't go back", I immediately eliminated it with "I'll talk about it later". I may also be a careless eye who only thinks about the present.
So how can you not enjoy this beautiful scenery?
"Tianxiang, are you lazy?"
The mind wanders between the vast world and the sweet soft girl voice in my ears, which is really intoxicating...... Wait, it seems to be Master's voice.
When I opened my eyes and looked back, Master puffed out his face and glared at me with some anger.
Why do you feel that the master is too deep into the drama and can't go back? If it had been before, she would have woken me up with a roar that resounded through the valley. Looking around, many young men from the village were nearby, secretly looking over here.
We are now looking for evidence that the presumably possible demon transmitted information to the mainland, and after discussing with the village chief last night, the village chief mobilized the village labor force early in the morning to conduct a carpet search, and some young people did not realize the seriousness of the incident, but ......
Master went up and said some specific words, because I was in a state of obsession at the time and didn't remember it, but I only remembered the last sentence, "Please, everyone", and then these guys who were in the same state as me no longer had any complaints.
It seems that Master is also desperately selling festival exercises for everyone's motivation to work.
But I always think you should like the more mature body of Drift or Lianyi, is there so much Lolita in this world?
Speaking of the two, they were now on the other side of the village, with a hound.
I don't know why, but the village chief's hounds seem to like the appearance of the wanderer, and he can understand what the wanderer says. So after letting the dog smell the smell of the demon's corpse, he followed the two men to search over there.
That side is the direction where Lian Yi found the demon, and it is more likely to find evidence, so bring a hound to improve efficiency, if it is not discovered over there, it is necessary for us to search carefully.
"So it's okay to be lazy......"
"No, as my goose...... Yamachi Xing's disciple, everything must be on par with Master and me," Master patted his little chest and continued, "What's more, this incident is a major matter related to mankind!" β
You almost said you missed your mouth, didn't you? I hear you!
"Okay, I understand, Master!"
At this moment, fireworks rose from the sky on the other side of the village, which was a signal of a pre-arranged discovery.
"It seems that the efficiency of dispersing over there is indeed very high, and he is worthy of being my disciple."
"Don't be complacent, Master, let's hurry over!"
My intuition tells me that Master's triumph is not pretended, and that in the past, Master would suppress this mentality in front of people, but now...... But no matter what, it should be me who should be proud, and the exile is my person.
A puff of smoke passed through the village, leaving the young people of the village behind, to the place where the fireworks were rising, where Lianyi, the Exiles, and another group of young people were there.
In addition, there are several uncles who came after seeing the fireworks floating.
"Exile, Lianyi, hard work~"
"It's fine."
"What did you find?"
Wandering handed over the leather scroll in his hand.
It's a little strange to see leather rolls, now humans use common wooden paper to write things, leather paper is very rare, and it is this kind of delicate-looking leather paper.
Upon unfolding, it was revealed that there were strange symbols written on it.
"What kind of text is this?" In my worldview, all countries on the mainland use the same language, which is also because the online game system should be convenient for players.
Since it's not a human language, I think it might be the language of the demons.
"Master, can you see that this is the text of the demon race?"
Master stared at the symbol on the leather scroll, although it was not obvious, but facing her, I could see that Master was stunned for a moment, his eyebrows moved, and he was about to hear her tell everyone the answer, but she said:
"I don't even know if I've been to so many places, where have I ever seen such a strange thing."
It's good to be in a deserted place, and I always feel that the master is deliberately pretending not to know.
However, looking at the master's eyes of "dare to ask you and it will be over", I think it is better for me to pretend not to know: "Then let's guess that it is the demon script first, we need to find someone more knowledgeable to see." β
"It seems," said Tincks tacitly, "that we must continue our journey as soon as possible." β
"You're goingβ" Lianyi asked.
"If you go to the capital, it is said that there are many knowledgeable scholars there, and they have studied everything, and I think that no matter what kind of writing it is, there must be people who know it,"
"yes......"
Although this village is very ordinary, there are many merchants who travel between the two countries passing through it, and the villagers have heard a lot about the capital. At last night's banquet, some information has been learned from them.
Lianyi was naturally not surprised by our decision.
It's just that there is a little reluctance in her tone, and it seems that in just one day together, we have managed to win the hearts of the girls - although some of them can be regarded as coincidental events.
With the route set, we were ready to go back to the village to pack our bags and set off immediately.
"Shall you leave after lunch?" Lian Yi asked.
Although it is important to go to the capital, there is no hurry at this time, and we are deeply moved by Lianyi's enthusiastic appearance.
Seeing us nodding in unison, Lianyi smiled happily.
Returning to the guest room where we were temporarily staying in the village, and watching Senior Brother Luo Fei pack his luggage, I asked Master:
"Master can say it now, right?"
"Huh? What do you mean? β
Don't pretend to be stupid at this time, or are you addicted to cuteness, Master? I stared at her decisively with alien eyes until she blushed a little from being stared at by me.
"Ahem, ahem," Master pretended to cough, then became serious, "You want to ask about that strange text, right?" β
"You know for sure what language it is."
"Well," Master nodded solemnly, "because if this matter were known to ordinary people, it would cause a panic that would be even more serious than the invasion of the demons." β
It's so serious, swallow your saliva and listen carefully to Master's explanation.
Master opened the map and pointed his little finger to a remote corner.
"There is no doubt that this is where the demon went!"
If you look at your finger, the area is clearly marked.
"Dragon Realm!"
It's coming, it's coming! Legend has it that there is such a group of powerful but rare races in every other world, sometimes they are evil and greedy for money, and sometimes they have no quarrel with the world, but not to mention dragon slaying, at least you have to see the dragon, otherwise you are embarrassed to say that you have been to the other world!
"Master, are you sure that is the script of the dragon clan?"
"Hmm."
The dragons of this world are an extremely powerful race, and as mentioned before, their relationship with humans is unknown, sometimes neutral, sometimes hostile, but they should have a hostile relationship with demons, so why do demons go to dragons?
With the strength of the dragon, if you really want to invade the human realm, you don't need the help of demons at all.
Fortunately, the dragon clan is all squatting at home and doesn't like to do things like conquering the world, so the human continent can be safe. And historically, there have been several angry dragon attacks that have had disastrous consequences.
It is written that even the strongest humans are powerless against them.
It's hard to believe now, but if you do get evidence that the dragons have dealings with demons, it's necessary for humans to know the dragons' movements anyway.
Could it be that the end of this game called "Journey of Souls" is to fight dragons? Then get the achievement, Dragon Slayer or something......
Stop thinking and listen to Master continue:
"In fact, because there is no communication, and because the dragon script is very complex, scholars who specialize in it can only understand part of the meaning now."
"Isn't there no way we can talk to the dragons?"
Master looked at me strangely, as if to say, "Are you stupid?" "Same.
"Dragons will ...... human language"
Well, I'm stupid......
