A violent knock on the door woke up Verak. He was still confused and rubbed his eyes and looked out the window. When he realized that it was already dawn, he was so excited that he quickly went down to open the door.
"Just woke up?" Keating stood at the door dressed well.
"Yes." Verak asked, "Teacher, what time is it?"
Keating said: "At half past seven, I was planning to go have some food with you, and then meet up with Piaf to discuss the training class."
"Okay... then you sit down for a while while I wash up." Verak felt relieved. He thought he overslept and delayed the meeting.
Watching Verak go into the bathroom to wash up, Keating thought that he must have stayed up late at night and was busy with something, so he came to the desk and sat down to study the two pieces of paper placed there. On them was the poem "Intrachonelle"
of six paragraphs.
I'm probably researching this.
Keating glanced at Verak a few times last night without taking a closer look. Now, while Verak was washing up, he had time to take a good look at this thing that Verak missed very much.
Internachonelle.
What does this mean?
Keating, like Verak yesterday, was a little confused when he saw these six words. How did these six seemingly unrelated words connect together?
He looked at it with doubts.
I quickly scanned the entire content.
"Okay..." After reading it, Keating opened his mouth slightly and blurted out one word. The content of this poem was very powerful and very consistent with the content of "On Equality". It was simply tailor-made for their Equality Association.
Intrachonal must make it happen!
"Internachonel..." He chanted this slightly complicated name again.
This name is obviously not in Brexi, because if you use Brexi to interpret it, there is only one possibility: it is the language of another country, and after translation, it was transliterated into "Intna Xiongnai"
you'.
languages of other countries.
Keating was extremely knowledgeable in this area. After determining the direction of interpretation of 'Internachonelle', he immediately began to investigate the language.
Brexi is obviously a transliteration, excluded.
Dunman language is basically the same as Welsh language, and he is very familiar with it. There is no such content in it, so rule it out.
Bash language, if there is no such pronunciation, exclude it.
After careful elimination, Keating zeroed in on the Pluman language as the most likely possibility.
If 'Intnasonaire' is a transliteration, then the Bressian pronunciation of 'Intnasonaire' is structurally similar to Plumanian.
He has traveled to this empire located in the north-central part of the continent. In his opinion, it is hiding its capabilities and biding its time. It will definitely become one of the powerful countries in the future. Unfortunately, he only knew a little bit about the Pluman language in the past. Now times have changed and he basically does not remember it.
.
"Teacher?" Verak came out after washing up and saw Keating meditating on "Internachonelle".
"Do you know what this 'Internachonelle' means?" Keating asked Verak.
Verak shook his head: "I was wondering about this."
"You haven't asked Morais or the others?"
"He said 'Internachonelle' means New World." Verak replied, "But I don't understand why Chris insisted on giving such a difficult-to-understand name. Wouldn't it be better to just call it New World?
"
"Is this written by Chris?" Keating realized something was wrong. "Although the content in it is similar to The Theory of Equality, the emotions expressed in the end are completely different. One is full of power, and the other is extremely confused."
Hearing that Keating had the same doubts as he had last night, Verak became interested. He arranged his clothes and said, "Yes, I felt something was wrong here last night, and Chris wrote Internazionale first,
He just wrote A Theory of Equality, and I think he could have added some things from Internazionale when writing A Theory of Equality."
"But he didn't add."
"Yes, I think he may have felt that Internazionale was not correct, and overturned some of his previous ideas when writing The Theory of Equality. But in this way, this should be reflected in the content of The Theory of Equality. Strangely
In fact, they are not, they are not connected or exclusive, they are not involved at all." Verak came to Keating, put his hands in his pockets, and looked at the poem Keating was holding.
"Do you think this is a transliteration?" Keating asked what he had just guessed.
Verak said "hmm": "I think so, otherwise why would you give me a name that you can't understand?"
"Like Pluman." Keating said, "Then have you ever thought about why Chris uses a transliterated name?"
"What do you have in mind?" Verak had no idea at the moment, but after hearing what Keating said, he knew that he must have some ideas.
"Do you feel that this content is very inconsistent with Chris's creative style?" Keating pointed out in detail what he considered to be doubtful. "You said that Chris has always been soft. How could he write such a piece before writing Equality?"
A poem? How come there are some similarities and some contradictions in the two works? And why do you use a transliterated Pluman name?"
Verak's eyes widened and he understood what Keating meant: "You mean this poem was not written by Chris? But Morais and the others said it was written by Chris."
"Didn't you pretend to be Chris? Does he know Pluman?"
"He won't..."
"But it does not rule out that he commissioned someone else, so I tend to think that this is a poem from the Pluman Empire that Chris translated." Keating concluded the reasoning, "As for why Morais said it was composed by Chris
, maybe there is some misunderstanding in it, maybe they don’t know who actually wrote it, but just when it appeared in Chris’s place, they preconceptionally thought it was written by him.”
"I...go and ask." Verak had the same question as Keating last night, but at that time he believed that it was created by Chris, so he forcefully explained all the wrong things, "Do you think it was Prue?"
Man language, do you know what Internachonel means in Pluman language?"
"I don't know, I don't remember Pluman now." Keating put away "Internachonelle" and handed it to Verak, who was in a daze. "You can also look for someone who understands Pluman."
If you don’t speak English, please translate it.”
"...Okay." Verak took the two pieces of paper.
Keating got up from the chair in front of the desk and walked towards the door: "Hurry up and eat. After dinner, go to Piaf for a meeting."
"Teacher..." Verak's hands holding the two pieces of paper were shaking a little, and he froze in place without moving.
"What's wrong?" Keating opened the door halfway and closed it again.
Verak swallowed, looked at "Internachonel", and then looked at Keating: "If this is really translated by Chris from the Pluman Empire, it should mean that the Pluman Empire
Before the birth of the theory of equality, there were already ideas far more advanced than ours."
Keating's eyes flickered: "Maybe."
"It, it." Verak pointed to "Internachonel" with some excitement, "It was created at least a year ago. The Pruman Empire had this idea a year ago, and they
There are people fighting there too!”
Keating said nothing, but looked at Verak, who was so excited that he was a little incoherent.
This was a huge surprise for Verak.
He was confused about the future of the Equality Society, Chapter 10 of "On Equality". At this time, someone suddenly told him that in another country, at least a year ago, a country that was more advanced than them was born.
thoughts.
Isn't that place the future where Verak is willing to spend everything he has just to "see it, just take a look"?
"If it is really a work translated by Chris, I will go to Pruman no matter what, to meet the comrades there who are doing the same thing as us." Verak went from being in disbelief to looking forward to Keating.
The guess is true.
"I hope so." Keating also became curious. If it was really translated from the Pruman Empire, then how far those people there fighting for the new world had already achieved.
Verak put away the paper, breathed a long sigh of relief, and calmed down: "Let's go eat first. After dinner, we will go to see Morais first, and then go to Piaf."
"Yes." Keating opened the door again, and the two of them went downstairs side by side. After having a simple meal in the hotel, they rushed through the underground passage to the work area on the underground floor of the casino.
As eight o'clock approached, the comrades of the Equality Association became busy in the work area. Verak and Keating greeted the comrades passing by. The comrades were stunned for a moment before nodding.
"It seems that it will take some time to accept me." Verak said based on the reactions of his comrades, "After all, Chris and I look so similar, we have to adapt to each other."
"Well, in short, the beginning is not bad, and the future should not be very twisty." Keating said.
They just found out through inquiring that Morais held a meeting until three or four in the morning. After that, they simply rested in the conference room and came to the door of the main conference room while talking.
"Morning." Piaf happened to rush over and bumped head-on with the two of them.
"Good morning." Verak and Keating also said.
"How was your rest?" Piaf asked.
Verak was still a little sleepy when he first got up. He rinsed his face with cold water while washing and became extra awake: "Not bad, I will try to finish the training class today."
"Of course it's best." Piaf was also eager to start the training earlier. "I think there is still a little time before eight o'clock, so I want to take advantage of you not to come and talk to Comrade Morais about combat training.
I didn't expect to meet you at the door."
"It just so happens that we also have something to ask Morais about, let's go together." Verak glanced at the door of the conference room, and after hearing Morais' "Please come in", he pushed the door open and entered.
"What's wrong?" Morais was the only one sitting at the head of the conference room, slapping his face with his hands to shake himself out of sleep.
Verac, Keating, and Piaf sat next to each other. They couldn't help but ask key questions about whether the Equality Society has a path to learn from in the future and whether there are allies who can fight side by side. They asked first: "I want to ask Intner.
Shionel’s matter.”
"Well, you say."
"Is this poem written by Chris?" Verak stared at Morais, who was still a little confused, with burning eyes.
"Yes." Morais said without hesitation.
Verak and Keating looked at each other: "Are you sure? Where did you find this poem?"
"What do you mean?" Morais wondered why Verak wanted to delve into this matter with obvious consequences.
"Mr. Keating and I suspect that this poem was not written by Chris, but was translated from the Pluman Empire. If it is true as we suspected, it means that there is a like-minded person in the Pluman Empire.
organizations, their ideas are much higher than ours." Verak said, "We can definitely learn advanced ideas from them, and we can also form an alliance with them to open up a new world together."
"Here, let me think about it..." Morais was surprised that Verac had speculated through a poem that there was an organization in another country thousands of miles away that was more advanced than theirs. He began to think about the time when he discovered this poem.
Details, "Didn't we suffer a serious injury due to the government's crackdown? Comrade Chris also died in that operation. During the emergency evacuation, we packed up everything indiscriminately, including the things in Comrade Chris's office.
This poem.”
Verak felt nervous: "Is there any signature of Chris on the original version at that time?"
"Probably not..." Morais couldn't remember clearly, "But when you mention it like this, I remember one thing. At that time, Chris had an assistant who studied in Pruman, but unfortunately he was also involved in the crackdown.
Sacrificed."
"Do we have anyone here who understands Pluman?" This clue is particularly important, indirectly proving that this possibility is real. Verak's heart ignited hope. As long as he finds someone who can speak Pluman,
After confirming that the title "Intrachonel" is the transliteration of a certain word in the Pluman language, it can be determined that this poem was not created by Chris, but was translated by someone else!
"Yes, Li Meng can speak Pluman." Morais said.
Li Meng was one of the cadres who attended the meeting yesterday. He was from Wales. He was a young reporter and had traveled to many countries like Keating.
"I saw him on the way here. I'm going to call him." Piaf knew the importance of the matter and got up and walked out quickly.
"Huh..." Verak leaned back in his chair, his heart beating wildly uncontrollably.
The truth of this matter determines whether Equality will take another detour, and whether he can see a farther and more correct world.
"Here we come." Soon, Piaf came back with Li Meng.
"You know Pluman, don't you? Please check what this means. Is it Pluman?" Verak stood up quickly, took out the paper and showed it to Li Meng.
Li Meng is considered a new member. Before he joined, Chris's tomb had been built, so he didn't know much about this matter. He looked at the 'Internachonel' on the paper: "This... is
Transliteration of Pluman."
"Is it Pruman?!"
"It should be."
"What's the meaning?!"
"The meaning of internationalism."
Verak felt out of breath. He looked around at everyone present and finally slumped down in a chair.
His and Keating's guesses were correct!
He also finally understood why Chris did not follow the ideas of "Internachonelle" in "The Theory of Equality".
Chris has always used moderate methods to fight for rights with the government. After he unexpectedly saw and translated "Intracionaire", although he was deeply shocked, he still believed that this radical method was not the right path, so he
It was not adopted when writing "On Equality".
In the end, because he really didn't know how equality would progress according to his way, "On Equality" stopped at the writing of Chapter 10, "How Do We Change".
