Chapter 199 Connection
Inside the tent, looking at the words that suddenly appeared in the blank at the end of the comic strip, Capac frowned slightly. Although he didn't know the meaning of the word, he felt that it shouldn't appear here.
The other text in this comic book is in black font, which looks very neat and standard, as if it was printed by something. The word "䀴" is in blue, and it is not as regular as the other letters, so it should have been written.
'Should there be a separate word for the 㱗空䲾页? Does it have any special meaning? What does it mean?'
Looking at the words on the paper in front of him, Capak thought so, and then he rummaged through his wooden box for a while, and then took out a small notebook from it. When he opened it, he saw that it was full of words.
In this small notebook, there are a bunch of words written on them, and next to the words there are other words in bunches like stamps, which can be used to compare with each other.
Capac had once been a slave in a city built by invaders from across the sea. In order to make him understand what kind of work he should do, the factory owners hired someone to teach these foreign slaves simple vocabulary. Although this was to further exploit Capac, he still studied these foreign languages very seriously and even took notes seriously. The small notebook in his hand now was the notebook he brought back with him.
On one side of the notebook, there is a phonetic text composed of letters. According to the name given by those invaders, this is called Puget Sound. On the other side, there is a seal-like text called Lingyin Language, which is a common written language among many tribes on this continent.
There are many tribes in this vast land where Capac is located. The languages and customs of these tribes are very different, but their written language is the same. According to the priests of the tribes, long ago, all the tribes in this land were united and ruled by a great king. At that time, the warriors under the united king could even use the king's god-like power to expedition to the world on the other side of the sea.
However, when the king died in the war, countless disasters befell and divided the tribes. After countless years, the king's great legacy disappeared. Now only this text is left, but only a small number of people in the tribe, with the priests as the core, master it. Capac worked as an assistant to the priest in the tribe when he was a child, so he also mastered this text.
At this time, the small notebook in Capac's hand was a simple vocabulary comparison book, comparing Lingyin language and Puget sound. Capac flipped through the small comparison book, trying to find the meaning of the word written on the blank page, but he couldn't find it after flipping for a long time.
Capac's reference book has a limited number of words, most of which are the words he had to master when working as a slave, such as "work", "eat", "keep working", "move things", "shovel coal", "no rest", "work all night", "work all day", etc.
Finally, after searching for a long time, Capac found a word in his own notebook that was very similar to the word on the blank page, except that it had a few more letters. Based on the spiritual seal language at the back, Capac understood the specific meaning of this word.
This means "ignorant", "idiot", and "fool", and is generally used by factory owners to insult people. As Capac was insulted like this many times, he tried to figure out the spelling and pronunciation of this word. When he killed the factory owner, he cursed this word ten times loudly in front of a group of people and at his corpse, which attracted a group of people to curse with him.
"Oh... so it means 'ignorance', but a few letters are missing. Apart from the missing letters, the rest of the words are quite similar. Hmm... maybe the owner of this album made a mistake and missed a few letters."
After checking the dictionary and finding the result, Capac was satisfied and determined that the word in the comic strip in front of him was "ignorance" and "fool", but the person who wrote it accidentally omitted a few letters.
"Well, I can take this opportunity to correct it and deepen my memory of the word, so that I don't have to look up the book next time I see it."
Capac thought like this, and then the studious boy decided to correct the misspelled word. He rummaged through his collection wooden box and took out a bottle of ink and a fountain pen. After filling the fountain pen with ink, he put the comic book on the ground, picked up the pen and started writing on the empty page. He had practiced the technique of using the fountain pen when he was in the city.
Under the original word, Capac first wrote down the word he thought was correct, and then wrote down the corresponding spiritual seal language under the "correct" word. After glancing at it, he nodded with satisfaction.
But soon, his surprise came true. The characters he wrote, whether they were ordinary words or spiritual words, were all absorbed into the brown paper and disappeared without a trace.
Kapak stared at the scene in front of him with his eyes wide open in shock.
…
The King's Campus, Royal Holy Crown University, Tivian, on the east coast of the main island of the Kingdom of Put.
In the bathroom of the library, Dorothy was stunned when she saw the characters appearing on the "Wenhai Hangzhi" in her hand. She really couldn't understand the strange characters that looked like stamps, but she recognized those few common words.
'Ignorant? Fool? Why are you cursing me like that? I wrote some knowledge and you replied with "ignorant"? What does that mean?!'
Looking at the book in front of her, Dorothy thought with a little anger. In fact, the word "knowledge" and "wisdom" in Puget Sound are the same word. If a few letters are added to this word, it can become its negative form "ignorance", which becomes an insult.
'For some reason, the person who linked to "Wen Hai Hang Zhi" replied with a few incomprehensible words and a very ordinary word "ignorant". What does this mean?'
Looking at the words in the navigation log, Dorothy pondered and then thought of a possibility, and then she began to ask the leader.
'System, monitor whether my language knowledge has been increased.'
'Reply, a new Lingyin vocabulary word has been detected, ignorance.'
The president replied to Dorothy, and Dorothy nodded in understanding.
'Sure enough, this strange bunch of characters is a new type of writing, corresponding to the common word "ignorance". This time, the "Wenhai Hangzhi" is linked to a scholar who has mastered a language called Lingyin.
"This student was probably using the notebook linked to the navigation journal to draft, so I saw it. This is emotional."
Dorothy's eyes lit up when she thought that the person on the other side of the navigation log had mastered a new language. Then, she took out a pen from the magic box and wrote on the navigation log in Putin.
"pray."
Dorothy finished writing and watched the words slowly seep into the paper.
"Wenhai Hangzhi" uses Wenhai Hangzhi as a medium. Dorothy's system can expand the scope of listening to anonymous prayers. As long as Dorothy and the other party are in a communication state using the hangzhi, as long as the other party makes an anonymous prayer, Dorothy can rely on the system to perceive it.
Of course, whether the other party would subconsciously pray in their heart just by seeing the word "prayer" depends on luck. If that doesn't work, Dorothy can slowly communicate with the other party and induce him to pray.
…
Inside the tent, he was a little panicked when he saw the words disappearing from the text in front of him. He immediately stood up and picked up the short axe weapon beside him.
'What's going on? Why did the words I wrote disappear? What happened? Evil spirits? Witchcraft? Or something else?'
Capac looked at the pages of the book on the ground in front of him nervously, and just when he was thinking about whether to show this strange thing to the priest, some words suddenly appeared on it, and this time it was a new word.
"This... word just disappeared out of thin air... and now it appears out of thin air again, and it's that kind of alphabetic text again... What does it mean this time?"
Looking at the new words appearing in the book, Capac moved closer with some curiosity. After not quite understanding them, he picked up his translation reference book, and after flipping through a few pages, he found the reference vocabulary.
One is "prayer". Those barbarians, whether they are peasants or factory owners, all pay attention to this. Whenever they have time, they will go to their churches to pray to their gods. Because this is a common phenomenon, Capac wrote it down.
"Pray... Who should I pray to? To this book? This book can respond to me. Could it be that... there is a powerful spirit living in it?"
Capac muttered this word in his own language. As a priest apprentice, he thought of the various rituals of praying to the spirits of the wilderness. Capac, who had witnessed objects with guardian spirits, could not help but feel pious. For a moment, he thought that there might be some powerful spirit in this book. Only objects with souls could have wisdom.
Whether it is an evil spirit or a guardian spirit, the tribesmen must worship it.
At this moment, Dorothy's system on the other side of the world finally responded. She immediately consumed the spiritual power of "Qi" and established an information channel with Capac.
