Chapter 8: Alto
——Well, there are three more today
…………………………………………………………………………………………
Opening the magic notes, the rows are all strange and weird letters, which are not one of the two words that Lucian knew before crossing, and the body after crossing belongs to the poor and has not learned anything The text is normal, being able to understand from instinct and speak the language of this world, without affecting communication, is already the luckiest of Lucien's numerous difficulties.
Therefore, the current Lucian, tragically becoming a real illiterate, can only look at the magic notes, and he cannot understand a word.
Balussian smiled at himself: "I don't feel good about illiteracy."
Although this day came through, I experienced a lot of things, making Lucian more mature and calmer than before. Even before reading the notes, he was still worried about the threat of the church and hesitated to learn magic. But now, the huge Disappointment still hits Lucien's mind. As a new age university student with ideals, morality, culture, and discipline, the sense of illiteracy is not good, especially when the text is also related to the extraordinary and not the strength of human beings.
He didn't hesitate much, just calmed for a while, Lucian firmed his mind in his heart: "The most important thing right now is to learn the words of this world!"
Even if you do n’t choose to study magic in the future, you have to get rid of the living conditions and status of the poor at the bottom, learn words, and acquire knowledge, which is still a desirable way, especially in Lucian's own lack of strong power, strong physique, and no sword skill Under the premise, it may be very small to get rid of your current status by fighting, taking risks, being a thug.
With the thoughts and decisions, Lucian quickly dismissed her disappointment, filled with a little passion, and continued to look at the magic notes to see if there are other secrets hidden on it, such as treasure maps and the like.
I looked at him, Lucian frowned slightly, because he saw a lot of familiar things on the magic notes, such as some strange patterns composed of standard geometric figures and lines.
"Magic array, or magic mark?" Lucian guessed based on the "Holy Emblem of Truth", and then quickly flipped behind the magic note, so he saw rows of formulas similar to the chemical equation, but these formulas There are no symbols, but some text: "Formula of magic? Formula of potion?"
相似 These two similarities gave Lucian some speculation, but he couldn't understand the words, so he had to doubt first.
After turning over this magic note, Lucien opened another one. On this one, the text was more distorted and the letters were similar to the pattern.
"Not the same kind of text?" Therefore, Lucian opened the third book with curiosity. This book painted some patterns of plants, minerals, and monsters, and seemed to be books such as "Illustrated Books." But the text on it, Consistent with the second magic note.
"The language I know is likely to be the one on the first magic note." Lucien speculated on how easy it was to use from the ease of writing.
After reading three magic notes and books over and over again, after no more gains, Lucian lay on the bed and forced himself to sleep.
For Lucien, the desire to change her situation is so strong. Starting from tomorrow, every day must work hard for life. If the sleep is debilitating, there is no way to better meet tomorrow and grasp Live by chance.
Although Benjamin's healing divination completely healed Lucian's wounds, after a fierce battle, mental and physical exhaustion, Lucian fell asleep quickly.
In the sewer, the witch's chamber has been completely destroyed.
At this time, a black mouse did not know where it came from, his eyes were red, indifferent, and strange.
It circled around the ruins, squeaked twice, and then ran to the sewer in the other direction. After a long time, it found a hidden hole, drilled in, and disappeared.
Uh ...
In the early morning, Aderang district gradually sounded noisy vocals, water, etc., breaking through the coldness of the night, let Lucian feel vitality and vitality.
I used to like tossing and turning over in bed Lucien, who had been up for a long time, and as soon as I woke up, I forced myself out of bed, lit the stove, boiled water and baked the last piece of black bread.
As he ate painfully unpalatable bread, Lucien planned for today's arrangement.
If you do n’t need to think about distractions, Lucian is absolutely unable to swallow this dark bread when it is not hungry.
"Go first and find out where you can learn Chinese and the corresponding conditions. In addition, you have to find another thing to do. Otherwise, you will starve to death at home before you learn Chinese." Lucian didn't know much about the world, only Can simply plan, "It's better not to be known by familiar people, lest you show your feet."
He simply cleaned his lower face with water in a water tank. Lucien took the seven coins out of the crate and put them on his body. Although there were not many, he had a sense of security.
He locked the door, and Lucian walked directly to the house where Elisa's family lived. He didn't have any impression of the terrain of this city of Singing, and of course he had to ask someone.
"Hi, Lucien." A dark-haired girl greeted Lucien with a deep curiosity.
At the moment, Lucien doesn't know her, but can only make a standard smile and nodded perfunctorally, "Hey, I have something to go to Elisa's house." Then he hurriedly passed her.
"Hi, Lucian, what is a ghost like?"
"Luxian, what's it like to perform divine magic?"
"I saw a guard lose his right hand. Was it dangerous last night?"
I was only a few dozen steps away from Elisa's house, but Lucien met the enquiries of several neighbors. Overnight, Lucien seemed to have become a famous figure in the district of Adjan.
Balussian didn't know any of them, and could only perfunctoryly walk towards Elisa's house.
Before I reached the door, Lucian heard a familiar voice: "Little Evans, it's really early today."
Kushiro relieved secretly: "Uncle Joel, good morning."
Joel is dressed neatly today, holding a harp with a classic flavor in his hand: "Did Evans have breakfast? Your health is good, there is no need to rush to find something to do so, but you have always called You came for dinner. "
Lucien asked Joel to inquire about the terrain, and he prepared this excuse to see him take the initiative to raise it. He was more relieved: "Thank you Uncle Joel, I have already eaten it, and yesterday there was a mastery of Lord Benjamin's divine treatment. I am fine with everything. No need to rest anymore. "
Joel nodded and greeted Lucien walking side by side with him: "I have peace of mind with the priest's magic, wait for you to go to the Copper Crown Tavern to find the boss Cohen, and he still owes me a bottle of Rice wine Will help you introduce a good job. "
Lucien said that Xie was about to leave, Joel thought about it, put aside his usual laughing face, and said solemnly: "Little Evans, you are seventeen years old, and you are not too young, you should think about it later Life. "
"Uncle Joel, do you mean?" Lucian asked clearly.
Joel sighed: "Working with strength, after 40 years of age, the body will age quickly and it will be difficult to find a job again. If you don't have savings, you don't have good sons and daughters, you will be affected by poverty and disease in a few years. Let ’s go. Uncle Joel has seen a lot of this kind of people, and few of them live to be over 45. You still learn a craft while you are young. Although the apprenticeship contract is ten years, if you learn well, you will come later. Going to a small place will definitely lead a good life. "
Between the words, the two walked along a road through a gate watched by the guards. Suddenly, Lucien's eyes brightened, the broad road, the neat streets, the lively shops on both sides, and the clothes coming and going. People with various colors and different styles of clothes, long skirts, and even occasionally appear luxurious clothes, nobles wearing jewelry decoration, and even the air seems to be rippling with wonderful music, and it seems that it is with Adejeang. Two worlds.
谢谢 "Thank you Uncle Joel." Lucian could feel Joel's sincere concern.
Joelton paused, and showed that kind of laughter: "And if your master when you were learning crafts had only one daughter, maybe you can become a boss directly from an apprentice, our little Evans looks good."
I was so ridiculed by Joel, Lucian could only smile awkwardly.
Talking, Joel stopped suddenly, walked to the corner of the street, put a prepared hat on the ground, and sat beside himself, preparing to play the harp.
叔 Uncle Joel is a street artist? Lucian is no stranger to this approach.
Joel pointed to a lavishly gorgeous baroque building that was faintly visible in the distance, and said with a smile, "Here you can directly see the Sacred Hall. For me, playing here, there is The feeling of playing in the chanting hall. "
Lucien had not yet answered, and Joel seemed to have been motivated, pointing at the Chancellor Hall and saying, "Since more than 400 years ago the church guided the Holy Hertz Empire West Advance, occupied Alto, the last core of the ancient Sylvanas magic empire, and drove dark creatures and Warcraft to the vicinity and depths of the Dark Mountains. Aalto has been one of the most famous cities in the entire continent. . "
"And more than three hundred years ago, under the crown of Pope Charles I, who was still a cardinal, at Aalto, he organized the church's past hymns and songbooks, set a standard for chanting music and singing, and waited for him to become pope. With the chanting of choirs and choirs in every church, Aalto has the title of the city of chanting. "
"Because of the proximity to the dark mountains, there are often elves, dwarves, and dogheads who change their beliefs and become members of the Principality. The intersection of different music has made Aalto the music capital of the entire continent. The emergence of polyphonic music and the formal formation of symphony The inventions of musical instruments such as the Jisu violin are all here. The great musicians have left their names in history. "
"For every bard, every musician, and every musician, it is the greatest glory to play your own music in the Alto Sanctuary Hall."
"Uncle Joel, although I can't enter the Chancellor's Hall, I am very happy to play nearby."
Uh ...
Farewell to Joel, while Lucien asked for directions, he was experiencing the appearance of Aalto. There are many bards playing and selling on the streets and around the corners. There are singing and piano sounds from time to time in shops and residential houses The whole city seems to be shrouded in music.
As soon as he returned from the other inner city gates to Adjeong, Lucien saw the tavern with a bronze crown at a glance.
Outside the tavern, girls and women came from time to time, sneaking into it, and then left disappointed.
