Chapter 8: Text

　　 Regardless of the work in the laboratory, the tasks that require combat capabilities, or even the "hunting moments" that the young wizards on the tower must participate in without exception, Richard has never participated. This is probably one of the reasons why other wizards would "treat him differently": He lost all channels to join the top-level interpersonal network. It's not that he doesn't want to change this, but he is powerless.
　　 But in this case, the question arises: What is the point of such a weak and weak him that can be seen by a superior and legendary wizard? Could it be that he has a talent that other wizards can't detect, but a powerful and knowledgeable wizard leader can keenly notice? So far, Richard has not noticed anything similar in himself.
　　...No, if you want to say "special", his identity is really special, after all, he is a traverser. In addition, Rasputin will bring him up to the tower. The most important reason is that he was discovered near an ancient ruin, and Richard knew nothing about it. Is there a secret hidden in the middle?
　　 While he was thinking hard, the other party spoke again.
　　 "I will teach you the knowledge of a spell. You need to master its ‘prototype’ here."
　　 "...spells?"
　　 Richard was a little surprised. He has not mastered any spell so far, no one has taught him knowledge, and the result of self-study is only a few tricks.
"Relax. It's very simple. It's just a small part of the whole ceremony. I believe you can master it in three days. During this time, you should stay in this room. Someone will take care of the related affairs on your behalf. "
"it is good."
　　 Richard knew that he had no choice, so he stopped thinking about it.
　　 "In addition..."
　　 The wizard leader's words paused slightly. The figure on the Iron Throne raised his finger, and a light screen appeared in front of him, slowly moving towards this side.
　　 "Abraham, do you know the words above?"
　　 Richard blinked. For a moment, he thought he had hallucinations.
　　 The apprentice stared at the light screen close at hand, subconsciously held his breath, and a storm surged in his heart.
　　
　　 This kind of square text... it doesn't exist on this continent! Richard’s first thought was this. There are free wizards from all over the mainland in the magic tower, and the languages ​​used are quite complicated. He has seen more than 30 kinds in the library, but none of them are close in form. The text in front of me; not to mention that it is too similar to the text used in the place where I lived in the previous life. what does this mean? Could it be that there are other traversers from the earth besides yourself? Did he (she) pass down this kind of text?
　　 But he calmed down quickly. The shocking impression he saw for the first time made him misjudgment. Upon closer inspection, it is obvious that the text on the light screen is not exactly the same as the real Chinese characters, and is different from ancient Chinese characters or even any kind of characters on the earth. At least half of the content is completely unfamiliar.
　　Since there are huge differences in the form of characters in different parts of the earth, it is not impossible that languages ​​similar to Chinese characters appear in different worlds. Are the words on the light screen formed by natural evolution in history or artificially shaped? What is the intention of the wizard leader?
　　 No matter what, he must be cautious. When Richard was thinking about how to answer, he suddenly felt a layer of goose bumps on his body. He felt a biting chill from his body. The source of it was a cold line of sight, as if being stared at by a terrible beast. It's the same. Richard subconsciously raised his head and looked in the direction he was looking at.
It was only then that he discovered that the wizard leader standing high on the Iron Throne was holding a gorgeously shaped short staff. A poisonous snake made of gold hovered up to the top. The head of the staff was inlaid with two emerald greens. The gems are exactly the two eyes of the snake. Obviously it was a dead thing, but the line of sight staring at him came from there.
　　 "Abraham, tell the truth, no lies."
　　 Richard quickly lowered his head. What he felt just now, whether it was the cold or the line of sight, could not be his own illusion; and the wizard leader’s words were calm and the same, sounding the same as before, but clearly full of deep meaning...
　　 can't lie! Richard made a judgment immediately. Although his knowledge is shallow, the common sense of the wizarding world and the magic way is still clear: the types of spells are divided into nine areas according to their natures, and one of them is called "mind", which, as the name suggests, is the power that is good at distinguishing people's minds and mental states . It is undoubtedly foolish to lie in front of a legendary wizard, not to mention that the other party has already warned in advance.
　　 "...I don't know, but my hometown...the language used in that distant country is somewhat similar to this."
Having said that, it is impossible for him to pour out everything about himself as a traverser all at once. UU reading www.uukanshu.com can only answer vaguely on the basis of not lying, waiting for the other party nervously. Response.
　　 Rasputin seemed to nod his head.
　　 "Very good. Come and translate for me."
　　 "Master Rasputin, I don't know anything about it..."
　　 "It doesn't matter, just follow the similar words used in your country, and mark all the meanings next to it. The more similar words that can be compared, the better."
　　The legendary wizard stood up from the throne and walked down the stairs in the dark.
　　 "Abraham, do you know where I found you?"
　　 "It's near an ancient ruin..."
"To be precise, they are the remains of the ancient empire. They were born earlier than the epics passed by word of mouth by the bards, and older than the golden age." Rasputin said, "you were buried nearby. In a coffin on the hillside. The text you see now is an excerpt from a magic book from the ancient empire, and the text on that coffin is the same as the text recorded in the magic book. "
　　 Richard was silent and did not speak.
　　 There is a huge amount of information in the other party's words, which makes it difficult for him to fully understand for a while, and only feels that his mind is full of chaotic thoughts.
　　 "It's not too late, let's start now."
　　 The wizard leader dropped the short staff in his hand and knocked it on the ground. The invisible and colorless ripples spread to the surroundings with this as the center, making waves in the sea of ​​luminous spirits. The original uniform color now changes its luster like a neon. Several spirit bodies received some kind of order and approached here.
　　 Richard blinked. In the next moment, the figure in front of him has disappeared. The spirit body with the outline of a light blue human body floated in front of him and made an inviting gesture.
