Chapter 345: Passing


The oracle bone inscription can be said to be the earliest form of Chinese characters, and it is the oldest mature script in the ancient Chinese dynasties, so named because the script itself was engraved on tortoise shells and animal bones.

Even on the earth, this kind of writing can only be seen from ancient ruins or books, but in this completely distant world, in this sealed metal room, he actually saw this kind of writing that has been lost for thousands of years, if it weren't for this environment, Xiao Lin would even think that this was probably someone who played a very absurd joke on him.

Xiao Lin studied carefully for a moment, and muttered: "I think I probably know the rules of this game, it's actually very simple, it's just the simplest translation puzzle, you see, these squares on the table are all basic characters written in the ancient Norma language, and the missing grid is probably to let us find the corresponding definition of the wood chips, that is, the oracle bone inscription." ” "So you're able to spell this picture?"

Lilith directly omitted his explanation of the first half and was only more interested in the results.

Xiao Lin smiled bitterly: "This is very difficult for me, I only know a little bit about the surface, and I am not a professor of archaeology, so try it anyway." ” The essence of oracle bone inscriptions is actually hieroglyphs, which are the most primitive methods of word-making, and with the weakening of pictorialism and the enhancement of symbolic nature, some physical objects and abstract things are difficult to draw, which is also the limitation of hieroglyphs.

Xiao Lin's ancient Norma language allowed him to recognize the words in the table, but fortunately, these were the most basic words, such as the sun, moon, mountains, rivers, sky, etc., although his oracle bone level was probably not even half-baked, that is, it was slightly better than knowing nothing, but the hieroglyphs could guess even if they were unrecognizable.

The initial puzzle pieces were quite smooth, and these simple words could be easily identified by the figures, and they were not too complicated.

But later on, the difficulty is obviously increasing, and a lot of very unfamiliar words appear.

In particular, many words that are unique to the ancient Norma language do not appear in oracle bone inscriptions at all.

That meant that Xiao Lin needed to find the words with the closest meaning to fill in.

Although Lilith was full of questions, she chose not to interfere with his work after all, but she was bored and supported her chin with her hands, just staring at Xiao Lin with a serious and serious face.

The rest of the time was spent in silence, Xiao Lin thought that as the difficulty increased, his interpretation would be very difficult, and this was true at first, but as time passed.

After his efficiency decreased slightly, he actually began to gradually increase again.

This feeling is very strange, for example, some words that he couldn't understand at all, and after a while, he was able to comprehend the meaning of them on his own, as if Xiao Lin himself was learning and improving himself in the process of puzzle interpretation.

Xiao Lin didn't know that his double S talent was imperceptibly having a huge effect, especially in the learning ability after the advancement, when learning the oracle bone script that had mastered a certain foundation, the effect was even more amazing.

Of course.

Or maybe he has a talent for languages that he doesn't even know about, and after the initial monthly exam, the central computer system at that time did give him this evaluation.

I don't know how long it took.

Maybe a few hours, or maybe a dozen hours, in short, when Xiao Lin was about to stand up, his legs were numb, he almost fell, and he also woke up the sleepy Lilith.

"Is it done?"

"Well, probably."

"Probably."

Xiao Lin beat his legs, looked at Lilith who was yawning, and said helplessly: "Why don't you care about me first, this job is not easier than fighting......

I can't guarantee the accuracy rate. ” But a moment later.

There was a slight noise in the room, and a door made of a milky white light curtain rose again in the corner.

This is the best answer for Xiao Lin.

"It's not in vain."

Lilith patted him on the shoulder and gave him an appreciative look.

But it didn't take a few steps.

Lilith found that Xiao Lin didn't follow, but stood there in a daze, and couldn't help asking, "What are you thinking?"

Do you need me to help you?

” Xiao Lin refused with a smile, pointed to the wood chips that had been released according to the notes in the form, and said, "Don't you think it's strange?

Don't you think this form is more like a translation table?

” Lilith was silent, she wasn't a linguist and couldn't make out the Old Norman and oracle bones, but she understood what the translation table meant.

That means that perhaps thousands of years ago, there were earthlings or Norma people who interacted with each other, and when the language was not understood at that time, someone made this corresponding translation table to communicate.

They first arrived in the New World more than two hundred years ago, four hundred years ago in Earth years, and they were among the first to visit, a history that all colleges now recognize.

If the translation table in front of them was not deliberately made up by the mysterious girl to deceive them, perhaps their colonial history textbook would need to be revised.

In any case, about the Norma world, or even about the earth world, even if it is them, there may be too many things that they don't know that have been hidden in the long river of time.

Because he was worried that there would be a battle below, Xiao Lin sat here for a while, relieving the fatigue of his whole body, especially in terms of mental power, he was very satisfied with his results, and even felt that he could take a few more other language courses after he went back, maybe he really had the talent in this area?

A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Lin and Lilith stepped into the white light gate again, still in a momentary trance, and the scene in front of them changed again, this time they did not appear in the sealed environment again, but a large open world.

It was a blood-colored world, the sky was as red as blood, and even the ground beneath our feet was stained with blood that had dried up for an unknown number of years, and the soil was thoroughly reddish-brown from the inside out.

The ground was littered with countless skeletons, some completely loose into bones, some weathered into powder, and some intact, some apparently human, some alien in shape.

"What a strong breath of death!"

Lilith frowned, and with her level of meditation, she could detect the dead air in almost every corner of the walk, which showed that its intensity was already very strong.

"It feels like the end of the world, is this the final level?"
