Under the guidance of Shi Curti, Yanlu Ge walked up to the sixth floor of the Tower of Babel.

He swept through the secret royal histories that occupied an entire floor of bookshelves, and picked up a few clay slabs that had been packed in the window and placed in the window—five thousand years ago.

Under the stern gaze of the ancient book keeper, Yan Luge put on gloves and a mask, sat down in front of a workbench covered with soft sheepskin mattresses, and carefully removed the packaging on the outside of the mud and stone slabs.

The Nishizawa Empire used cuneiform script, and the characters on the entire stone slab were all composed of triangles and horizontal lines, but the ancient script and today's writing system have changed a lot, just like the oracle bone inscription and modern simplified Chinese characters in Tianzhou, which are completely two conceptual things, and people who have not studied it will only be confused when they look at ancient characters.

After Yan Luge got the mud and stone slab, he didn't hesitate much and read it quickly.

Shi Coti was slightly surprised: "You can understand the ancient Xize language?" ”

"No, I can only understand 90%, and the rest will be guessed." Yan Luge pointed to one of the lines, "The Great Emperor walked in the desert and met a giant beast with two heads, six claws and nine tails. The Emperor used that to kill the beast, and the beast died, and the blood turned into black sand, and the flesh turned into rotten soil, and what grew on the bones. What do the middle two words mean? ”

Shi Cotti leaned over and looked at the lines of the words, and said, "'The Great Emperor slew the giant beast with a burning knife' and 'Bone grass grows on the bones'." The former is a long knife that burns with flames, and the latter is a highly poisonous green plant that grows on the bones of giant beasts and glows at night. ”

The Nishizawa Imperial Family has passed down the history and culture of the people since the founding of the country.

As the eldest daughter of the emperor, the history curriculum studied by Shikoti included the translation and interpretation of the ancient Cizé language.

"What about this one?" Yan Luge pointed to another line of text, "The emperor walked by the river, and the river flowed with that." That wrapped around the emperor's ankle, burrowed into the emperor's skin, and sucked the emperor's blood. The emperor poured snake venom into the water, poisoned it, and then the emperor was also poisoned and fell into a coma for three days and three nights. What the hell is this and that? ”

"'Lisée snake' and 'blackwater river pinworm swarm'." "The Lisée snake is a snake with black feathers on its back, and its venom is secreted through feather glands, and it is so poisonous that mortals can die if they touch it. The Blackwater Pinworm Swarm is a type of aquatic pinworm that lives in the Blackwater River, and usually moves in groups, so it is very dangerous. They entangle creatures that enter the water, burrow into their skin, drain their blood, and lay eggs in their muscles. The eggs of these pinworms will hatch before the corpse swells, and the larvae will grow into adults before the corpse decomposes. ”

“…… Okay. These demons and monsters, if no one interprets them, I really can't understand them. ”

Yan Luge took out seven mud and stone slabs, most of which were recorded as the emperor went somewhere and killed some monster. Or maybe the Emperor went somewhere and found some treasure.

No wonder the poet Curty would say that their historical account is exaggerated and distorted.

Anyone who looks at these god-like things will not think it's real.

But......

"Is all this true?" Scotti asked softly.

Scotti was originally a staunch materialist.

But after seeing the transcendent phenomenon with her own eyes, her mind also changed, and she began to doubt her previous judgment.

"Most likely, it's true." Yan Luge said crisply, "Let me ask you a few questions, in your history of Nishizawa, how many times has the history been recorded as a myth?" And when did the depictions of supernatural powers disappear? ”

Poet Cotillo thought back for a moment and said, "In the first thousand years of Nishizawa's founding, there were basically descriptions related to supernatural powers. In the next 4,000 years, after the construction of the Tower of Babel, such myth-like descriptions suddenly disappeared and historical records became true...... Ordinary up. ”

"That's right. Four of the five ancient kingdoms, the historical records of Tianzhou, the Mauryan Empire, the Nile Federation, and the Xize Empire, have already told me the same answer. Yan Luge said casually, "In the ancient times on the Sea Blue Star, alien beasts and transcendent beings were rampant, but four thousand years ago, the source of extraordinary power, the aura, suddenly disappeared, and all inheritances seemed to be cut off overnight. Then, after a few years or decades, the supernatural power of the nations disappeared completely. ”

Yan Yuge raised his head and looked at Shi Koti: "I want to see the story of Mangula Nishizawa, the lord of Nishizawa Zhongxing, the builder of the Tower of Babel, and the god killer, where is it?" ”

Under the guidance of Shi Curti, Yanluge got a few mud and stone slabs from 4,000 years ago.

The cuneiform script on the clay slab has also changed a lot, and it seems that the language system has gradually become more complex, and the triangles and horizontal lines of the past can no longer be fully expressed, so the arrangement and combination of triangles, horizontal lines, vertical lines, and oblique lines have evolved.

Yan Luge glanced at it, and found that he could still understand most of it, so he happily began to read.

Shi Curti was a little impressed by him: "How did you learn ancient cuneiform?" ”

Even she had to work hard to understand the ancient characters written in these ancient books.

You must know that even in the Nishizawa Imperial Family, only the heir to the throne needs to be proficient in all ancient languages and ancient characters, as for the other princes and princesses...... Just don't skip class, it doesn't matter how many points you get.

In terms of Lu Ge's temperament, he is well-known in the circle of the rich second generation, since he was a child, he has been famous for lying and skipping class and not studying well, and he often can't find his father in the blink of an eye - when he was a child, his father would try to find it, and he didn't even bother to look for it when he grew up, anyway, who wants to be bad for his son, and it will definitely not be his son who is unlucky in the end - in short, this person is flying like a wave, and he can actually learn such a complex ancient script?

"Self-taught." Yan Luge said casually, "I can understand the mainstream language and writing in this world, do you believe it?" ”

"Extraordinary abilities?" This is the only answer that Scotty can think of.

"No, just take a look."

Scotti didn't refute it, but her eyes were clear—she didn't believe it.

Yan Luge didn't explain either.

He actually has a very strong memory, almost the kind that he can never forget.

After his researchers have finished translating ancient books, they usually present them to him with the original and translations, and they will be able to read them from the beginning to the end...... Recite? Do I need to carry it? Isn't it good to hear the language? Don't you understand the text after reading it?

In addition, he has been running around the world all year round, and it is really not a joke to say that he understands the mainstream language and writing.

He didn't want to waste time by skipping class, so he went through the textbook before every exam, and didn't he always be the first in the grade?

Although most people think that his father is rich and powerful, and he got the answer in advance, and he is frantically complaining about the injustice of the teacher and the school behind his back, but later the school was bought by his father, and no one complained.

Because since he knew that he wouldn't be expelled for any mess around, Yan Luge didn't even bother to take the exam.
