Chapter 6: The Language of the Demon God
"Lance, are you alright? Where are you hurt?" Veronica hurriedly ran in front of Lance, checking up and down in a bit of a panic. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I'm fine. Lance shook his head, but Lance also noticed a problem, and said with a puzzled smile on his face, "But this undead apprentice seems to be in trouble." Veronica, En...... That one...... Don't look at your feet. ”
But this sentence only piqued Veronica's curiosity. Curious, she looked down and saw a human head at her feet, and the headless corpse lay not far from her, still spurting blood. Veronica screamed in fright, then hugged Lance's left arm.
The eyes on the skull were still open, revealing the expression before death, but it was an expression full of murderous intent. It seems that the head of this undead apprentice Tuke has been cut off before he has time to feel the pain and change his expression.
Lance had a pained look on his face, and then said, "Veronica, that ...... Can you change your arm to hug it, my left arm is a little inconvenient. ”
Although Lance is now holding the left arm by a big beautiful woman, it should be a very pleasant moment for a boy. But because of the previous battle, Lance's left arm is not optimistic now, in addition to the wound on his shoulder that had been bandaged before, he has added several new wounds on his left hand, some of which are quite deep. A burning sensation of a soldering iron ignited from his left arm, causing Lance to frown.
Veronica's face flushed when she saw it, and she let go of Lance's left arm. However, when she saw Lance's bleeding wound, she immediately buried her shyness, and then said in a little panic: "That, Lance, you sit down." I'm bandaging your wound, and the bleeding must stop right now. ”
"Hiss......" As soon as Veronica touched Lance's wound, the unprepared Lance snorted in pain. Veronica quickly apologized and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'll take it lightly, Lance, and bear with me a little. ”
Lance's already white lips smiled and said, "It's okay, you follow your strength, after all, you are a healer." If you put water and bandage it because of my pain. What if I don't wrap it up properly and I bleed to death, the gains outweigh the losses. Don't worry, I can still bear this pain. ”
"When is it, you are still joking with your life like this. Veronica didn't know what to say, so she silently began to bandage it. However, Lance clearly felt that Veronica was already extremely gentle and bandaged, and she was careful every step she took, and it seemed that this kind healer still "let go" of herself.
But even so, Lance only reduced the pain, not without it. He still felt a sharp pain in his left arm, but Lance gritted his teeth and held on, not letting Veronica find out.
Veronica frowned and asked softly, "Does it still hurt?"
Lance shook it, then smiled indifferently and said, "It doesn't hurt." You're so good at bandaging that you don't feel any pain at all, or even feel like you're bandaging, why don't you push a little harder?"
"Poof......" Veronica laughed. But Veronica is like Spiegel in her heart. Every time she started to tie the bandages, Lance's body trembled slightly, and Veronica knew Lance's pain very well. Still flamboyant, a mischievous little devil appeared in Veronica's heart. Then she slammed Lance's wound hard.
"Ahh I'm a healer, I don't know if you hurt or not?"
Lance said with a face full of pain and grievance: "You know that I am in pain, so why are you asking me!"
Lance's words stunned Veronica, who was originally just a little prank, but Veronica quickly found the words to answer, and retorted a little arrogantly: "As a healer, you answer whatever I ask you, this is a normal part of the doctor's and patient's inquiry." Who let you die to save face, hide from me as a healer. If you don't let you suffer, you won't take your injuries seriously. ”
Looking at Veronica like this, she is also very cute. Lance sighed and said helplessly, "Okay, my great doctor!" I was wrong, but to be honest, it didn't hurt as much as it had just been. It still highlights your superb medical skills, which are unique to the past and the present, and I am not telling a lie. ”
Veronica was a little embarrassed to be praised, and then said in a panic, "Okay, okay, you know Flim Tongue." You should take care of your own wounds. You too, why are you fighting so hard. If you look at these wounds, you need to recuperate for at least a month. ”
Lance said a little wronged: "It's just the two of us, and you are a girl, I don't try my best." And if we don't work hard, won't we both die?"
Lance saw Veronica return to that gentle expression, and there was a flush on his cheeks like the morning glow: "Anyway, thank you really for today, I will remember your bravery." But is it really the first time you've used the magic of the Black Bomb today? It's rare for someone to be able to use magic directly after hearing a spell a few times, so it seems that you have a talent for magic. ”
Lance also smiled helplessly, exhaled and said, "Yes, I was surprised myself." Originally, I just understood the meaning of the language of the mantra they were reciting, 'I am an angel of God.' Serve creation. In order to find eternal darkness, the black flame is for me. Chant takes effect!' and so on. I memorized the meaning after listening to it a few times, so I wanted to try it and see if it worked. I didn't expect it to work. And not only did it succeed, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful, but it's just a bit inhumane, and I won't use it in the future. ”
When Lance finished saying this, he only felt that Veronica's bandaging movement seemed to stop suddenly. Lance turned his head and saw that Veronica's face was only surprised and shocked, "You mean you understand the meaning of their demon spells?"
Lance looked at Veronica, who looked puzzled and disbelieving, and said embarrassedly, "Uh...... Yes, I understand, except for the pronunciation of the two undead apprentices, which I don't sound like I can grasp, I still understand the meaning. Why do you have such an expression, what's wrong. Don't you understand? This language is very popular, and I have in my head that it is more fluent in this language than in the language we are speaking now, and I don't believe you listen. ”
Lance then began to recite a large part of this language, but the more Lance read it, the more solemn Veronica's expression became.
Lance didn't dare to read it as he read it, and then asked in a somewhat timid whisper, "Veronica, is there something wrong?"
Veronica said to Lance with a solemn expression: "Lance, although I believe that you are a kind person, I still have the responsibility to tell you. The language of this spell is not a good language, this is the language of magic. It is a language that only Craig, the creator demon god who created the demons, and his descendants, 12 rebels. Not everyone can understand and speak. No, in fact, in the entire Veniante continent, we humans basically don't know anyone except for the high-level magicians and scholars of the mysterious Mihirington Magic Kingdom, let alone use it as a spell casually. And the people of the Magical Kingdom of Misillington can only read it, but they can't use it. In other words, this language is only accessible to the demons. ”
Lance smiled awkwardly and said, "You mean I was a demon before I lost my memory? But wouldn't those undead apprentices just now also ......?"
Lance stopped abruptly at this point. He knew that whether he said it or not, it meant that he would not be a good person. And thinking about Veronica's hatred and curse of those three undead apprentices before, you know what it means to Veronica that you have become a demon.
However, Veronica's words dispelled Lance's concerns: "Are you a demon? It's not like that, my grandfather saw a demon on the battlefield 19 years ago, and he said that their average height is 2.3-3 meters, and your height is only about 1.73 meters, which is a little too short, so it's definitely not a demon." ”
This sentence...... Although Lance knew that Veronica was clearing himself, this reason made Lance feel a little unhappy in his heart: Is it wrong to be short?
Veronica continued: "And this magic word is actually very special. My grandfather told me about the system of the demon race. Because the magic language itself carries the mysterious power of the creation demon god, the anti-god and the demon race have a very strict control over this magic language. ”
Lance asked, puzzled, "How strict, and not allow their subordinates to learn?"
"That's right!" Veronica nodded and said, "Even within the demon army, the demon language is not often heard. Because in the demon army, this language is basically only understood by the demon people, but the demon people are not the main force of the demon army, they just send some demon people as generals and governors to manage the affairs of those servant races. Even if they are allowed to study with their slave race, they are still selecting a very small number of loyal foreigners who have important positions to learn, and in the demon army, if you are selected to learn the demon language, then the demon clan has thought that you are no longer a servant, but a demon race. ”
But if the magic of the demons is written in the language of magic, then can't these undead apprentices who study magic every day also master the language of magic?"
Veronica shook her head, "I've heard from Grandpa Hogan, a member of the University of Idiris. In magic, spells are just words and don't have a systematic grammar to connect. It's like I named you 'Reims'. The name Lance is a word of God, which means the one who waits, but that doesn't mean I speak God. Again, like these undead apprentices, and even the high-ranking Death Lords and Lichs of their undead army. They only memorize the spells written in magic by rote memorization, and they don't know what they really mean. Therefore, it is even more impossible for them to recognize or even read such a large number of magic words freely. ”
After hearing this, Lance gasped for himself, but seeing that Veronica was so afraid of this language, Lance also knew that his previous identity was probably not a good person.
So Lance sighed, took out his broken sword, and gave it to Veronica.
Veronica was at a loss and said, "Lance, what are you giving me this?"
Lance's tone was heavy, as if he had already made a choice between life and death: "Veronica, if you say that, even if I am not a demon, I estimate that nine times out of ten I had a major relationship with the demon before I lost my memory, maybe I am still a bad person full of evil." Or kill me with this sword now, lest I regain my memory and start doing evil again, I don't want to be as vile, shameless, and brutal as these undead apprentices. ”
But Veronica threw away the sword at once, and then hurriedly grabbed Lance's hand worriedly and said, "Lance, what are you talking nonsense? Don't think about it! First of all, as a healer, I can tell you responsibly that you are a human being, definitely not a demon or other race! Although your red pupils are indeed rare, it can be said that you may be the only one in the entire continent. But I've checked when I first got you up, and you're certainly not of any other race. Because the body structure of each race is different. ”
"But what if I'm the high-ranking leader of the Metatu people who has taken refuge in the demons?"
"And what if you're a Mihirington from the Magical Nation of Misilington?" Veronica had a serious and serious expression, with a hint of anger at Lance's self-defeating.
Hearing this, Lance was in a trance. yes, it seems that Veronica said before, that Mihirington Magic Kingdom also seems to use magic language.
Lance's originally panicked heart also temporarily calmed down, and Veronica on the side continued: "You see that magic you just now is so powerful, and the first time you use a spell, you can easily release a black explosive bomb that is more powerful than them. This evidence would prove that you should be a Mihirington who is good at magic. I'm not sure, but I think it's more likely that you're from Michrington. Because first of all, you are human. Second, this very special dark red pupil of yours is probably only possible in that mysterious country of Michellington. ”
After listening to Veronica's analysis, Lance also got a little comfort in his heart, after all, if he knew that he was a big bad guy in the past, it would be better to let himself die.
Veronica then continued to bandage and said earnestly: "Actually, I don't think it matters whether you were full of evil before you lost your memory, what you do in the future is the most important thing." Take 10,000 steps back, even if you were really a big villain who defected to the demons before you lost your memory, but if you can accept the creed of justice and goodness during this time, and follow the guidance of Goddess Flobelga, I believe that even if you recover your memory, then you are also a hero and a good person who abandons evil and follows good. And not turn into the big bad again. What do you say?"
Veronica smiled charmingly and gently as she spoke. Seeing this smile, the ice and fog in Lance's heart also seemed to be lifted by a ray of sunshine, and he was relieved. Lance also secretly made up his mind, if he was really a demon who did all kinds of evil, for Veronica to trust him so much, Lance would also fight against the demons and destroy them for Veronica!
Soon, Veronica was bandaged. Lance glanced at his left arm, which was basically wrapped in a white bandage. However, it is very neat and regular, very artistic, and suddenly there is an inexplicable handsomeness, and Lance is a little reluctant to dismantle it.
As soon as Lance turned around, he saw Veronica, who had finished his bandages, and went to the corpses of the three undead apprentices and began to search. Lance asked, "Veronica, what are you doing? ”
Veronica raised her hand, only to see a metal sign reflecting sunlight shaking in Veronica's hand: "This is the identity tag carried by demon soldiers and minions." Take this to the captain of the garrison, Uncle Bag, to exchange the bounty, so that you can buy some cloth and make you a new set of clothes that fit. You see, your clothes are torn and you can't wear them. ”
Lance laughed from the bottom of his heart: Veronica is really, she didn't even think about what to do with the clothes that were torn by the undead apprentices just now, but first remembered that my clothes were torn and needed new clothes.
"Can you show me this sign?"
"Absolutely. Veronica handed the badge to Lance. Lance glanced at it, it was a sign made of steel, and the front of it was engraved with an equilateral triangle and a circle pattern on the previous skeleton. And below this figure is a horizontal bar.
Lance turned over and saw the text written on the back of the sign, and a sense of familiarity welled up on his eyebrows, and Langston's expression became serious, and this text was the text of the magic language in his head.
"Is this a demon script?" asked Lance.
Veronica rummaged through useful things like a scavenger and replied to Lance, "I don't know, I've seen it many times, but I don't know it." This kind of hieroglyphs is so old that it is probably only known to the scholars. How? You know?"
Lance took the iron sign in his hand and looked back and forth, nodded and said, "Well, although the writing is very awkward, and many strokes are not in the right direction, I can still recognize the glyphs." The back of this sign reads 'Undead Apprentice, Ash Legion, 10375', and I think this is the identity number of this undead apprentice. ”
But Lance was still obsessed with observing the brand. Suddenly, Veronica said "Oh my God" from the side, interrupting Lance's thoughts.
