Chapter 75 Interpreting Language

The crimson moonlight penetrated the not-too-thick curtains and fell on the desk that had been illuminated yellowish by the light of the gas wall lamp, demonstrating its presence that cannot be ignored.

Lumian looked through the newly purchased Plateau language textbooks and waited for more than half an hour before finally seeing a reply from Ms. "Magician" sent by the "Doll" messenger.

The letter is not long, only two pages: "Let's start with the simple part."

"Combined with the patterns, symbols and structure of the ring, although I still can't accurately interpret the meaning of that sentence, I can already determine its composition and the actual function of different phrases."

It is divided into three parts:

"The first part should be used to accurately point to the ring, so as to prepare the position for subsequent stimulation of specificity and infusion of the energy contained in the language;

"The second part is to inject the energy carried by your own words into the ring in the form of resonance, stimulating the 'magic circle' composed of patterns and symbols. You can use the sacrificial ring as a charm, and the second part of the words is equivalent to what it specifies. , a special opening spell, which does not require the use of supernatural power. It contains unique energy to achieve its purpose, but it requires pre-guidance;

"I suspect that the third part is a cipher text, a cipher text attached to the ring. That is to say, when the sacrificial ring passes through the words of the first two parts and the overall speciality is fully activated, it will record and carry the last paragraph The cipher text enters the sea and is passed to something.

"Do you understand? The sacrificial ring is roughly equivalent to a special key, which needs to be stimulated to be used. Moreover, it must be matched with the corresponding password so that this key can open the target 'door'.

", 'O sea, I will marry you as a symbol of my conquest of you'. The actual meaning of this sentence is probably equivalent to 'such and such key, unlock and open the channel, the password is XXXXxxXXX'. Of course, if it is really translated, it must be the same as this There are big differences, but the essence should be like this.”

Seeing this, Lumian couldn't help but curl up his lips.

When the successive "Governors of the Sea" read this passage with the mentality of marrying the sea, if anyone who knew the corresponding language heard it, they would probably laugh until their stomach hurts.

What a sea, what a marriage, what a conquest. After a long time, it turned out to be unlocking, opening the channel, and entering the password!

If this interpretation were told to Juan Oro, Lato Giallo and others, I wonder what their expressions would be.

No, they will definitely not believe it. They have been wrong for a thousand or two thousand years. What is wrong has become belief, persistence, and inheritance. No one will be willing to admit that it is wrong.

Anyway, the same effect can be achieved, no matter how I understand or translate it!

Lumian calmed down his funny mood, turned to the second page of letter paper, and continued to read the following content:

Next comes the more complicated part:

"The two patterns you saw in the basement of the 'Governor of the Sea' mansion have a long history, and can even be traced back to the early Quaternary Period.

"They are not only occult symbols, but also the coat of arms of ancient nobles. One of them comes from your acquaintance, no, the familiar angel, Amon!

"The clock-like pattern partly symbolizes the 'Insect of Time' and is the coat of arms of the Amon family."

"Insect of Time"? The coat of arms of the Amons? Why is it him again! Lumian's eyes narrowed, and he felt like he was still in the Amon pile after going round and round.

The ancestors of Milo Village, the sea praying ceremony in Santa Port, the specialness of that sea area, what does it have to do with the Amons?

There is no connection on the surface!

As Lumian's thoughts flashed, he suddenly felt that there was a certain connection between the sea praying ceremony and the former King of Angels in the "Stealer" path, and there were traces to follow:

The core members of the "April Fool's Day" who participated in the prank of the sea praying ceremony, the "Bard" is an extraordinary person of the "Stealer" path, and the "Crazy Girl" belongs to the adjacent "Apprentice" path, and they also prayed for the "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun" "This being who can profoundly affect the path of the "Stealer" provides help.

Although this cannot be directly pointed to the Amons, since so many "thieves" are gathered here, it is completely understandable that the sea prayer ceremony itself also involves the "thieves" path.

Lumian breathed out, lowered his head, and planned to see what the "Magician" lady said: "Those layers of doors come from the Abraham family. Yes, the Abraham family, one of the five major nobles of the Tudor Empire, I once I told you that in the Tudor Empire, only five families received hereditary duke titles, namely Abraham, Amun, Antigonus, Jacob and Tamara. Among them, the Abrahams controlled the 'apprentice' path. , remember, many times, 'apprentice' can represent seal."

"So, there is reason to believe that the sea praying ceremony is older than previously expected and can be traced back to before the demise of the Tudor Empire in the Fourth Age. It is normal and reasonable for you to encounter things related to the Tudor Empire, isn't it?

"Now do you understand the essence of the sea praying ceremony? You don't need me to explain it anymore, right?

"I began to suspect that the ancestors of Milo Village misunderstood the meaning of that passage at first, so they expanded the sea ritual and vigil from the revelation, and had an extremely absurd sea wedding ceremony that lasted for one or two thousand years. And this is probably a manifestation of that bad character. Without affecting the specific results, He really likes to make a joke for everyone and ignores the fate of others.

"Look, look, this is a prank. Those guys on April Fool's Day should really learn from it.

"If you don't understand the corresponding question, you can write to me again.

"By the way, 'Lie' now has a temporary ability that can only last for half a month. It has the ability to steal a certain amount of power from the target, but this power cannot last for long. For ordinary people, it may It's half a year, a year, for you, because it conflicts with your own strength, it doesn't last more than a week."

Lumian withdrew his gaze from the letter, and his mind was in a mess: "Ms. Magician means that the specialness of that sea area comes from the ancestors of the Abraham family and a certain Amon? The core part of the sea praying ceremony is these two Designed by a big shot at the angelic level, they guided the ancestors of Milo Village in Santa Port and left a revelation for them to perform the ceremony year after year? "

"Due to Amon's bad character, the ancestors of Miluo Village misunderstood the true meaning of those words and thought that they wanted to marry the sea. As a result, the core part of the sea-praying ceremony became more and more complicated, and the links expanded more and more. It turned into a large-scale prank that lasted for thousands of years?"

After roughly clarifying Ms. "Magician's" speculation, Lumian re-examined the nature of the sea prayer ceremony: "To appease the special thing hidden at the bottom of that sea area, that is, that 'palace'?

"Apprentice" means seal..."Stealer" means stealing....

"steal……"

Lumian suddenly lowered his head and looked at his left chest.

He understands the essence of the sea praying ceremony

How to find a husband for the sea, appease its rage, please it sincerely, and obtain corresponding gifts? This is completely a ridiculous reason that the ancestors of Miluo Village came up with after being misled!

Sea praying ceremony

The essence is to steal gifts!

The "palace" at the bottom of the sea was sealed by the "apprentice" path, but the ancestors of the Abraham family were worried that as time went by, the power of the seal would weaken and the "palace" would gradually revive and strengthen, so they asked Amon to design a The ritual regularly draws away the restored power of the "palace" every year, making it unable to truly break through the seal.

Therefore, after every sea praying ceremony, the sea area will become quiet, and there will no longer be too many winds and waves. The failure of last year's ceremony allowed the "palace" to gather a certain amount of power, so the "sea" changed. Shipwrecks have increased, and "death pilots" have left that special sea area more frequently.

You have to enter that sea area when the stars are in a special position, and you have to follow a specific route to reach your destination, all because only then will a tortuous and complicated passage appear in the outer seal!

Lumian stood up and took a few steps forward.

After understanding the essence of the sea praying ceremony, he also understood the repeated attitude of the Church of the Mother Goddess of the Earth:

At first, the clergy of the Church of the Mother Goddess of the Earth, who did not conduct any investigation, destroyed Milo Village and ended the sea prayer ceremony. However, they saw the coat of arms representing two great nobles of the Tudor Empire at the bottom of the building and stopped it in time. In the last step, later, they found that they had to send demigod-level saints every year to deal with the special conditions of this sea area, and even had to let high-end forces guard this area for a long time, which was very troublesome, so after the sea prayer ceremony was revived, they acquiesced. Reconstruction of the village of Milo.

Anyway, for them, most of the time, the sea praying ceremony does not affect innocent people and disrupt the local order. Every "Governor of the Sea" must have a certain bloodline from the sea, and although the "Maids of the Sea" will suffer from old age He ended up turning into a humanoid lizard, but at least he could change the fate of himself and his family, and enjoy power and wealth for thirty to forty years or even longer.

As for those "Maids of the Sea" who want to pursue love, the Church of the "Mother Goddess" will probably acquiesce or even help them escape. Otherwise, the probability of success is very low.

"So, why did the Order of Abundance encourage me to investigate the sea prayer ceremony, and why did Noelia give some intelligence but conceal key information?" Lumian thought of the answer as soon as he had such doubts.

What is really fishing is not the fishing guild, but the Church of the "Mother Earth"!

The failure of the sea praying ceremony last year made the Church of the Mother Earth worry that similar problems would occur this year. After seeing Louis Bay pose to investigate the sea praying ceremony, they simply encouraged him to do it to let the potential saboteurs hiding in the dark Contact him, surface, and catch them all!

Phew, Lumian let out a breath and turned his focus back to the purpose of "April Fool's Day".

Now, he was sure that "April Fool's Day" wanted to open the seal of that special sea area.

Last year was the first step to lift the seal, but it was far from enough to allow the "palace" under the sea to break through the seal. This year they will definitely create similar things again. Otherwise, when the sea prayer ceremony is successful, their prank last year will be over. It’s like wasting it!

The question now is, what will the core members of "April Fool's Day" do, and how can they seize the benefits represented by that "palace" and avoid the corresponding dangers? Lumian looked at the gas wall lamp that emitted a yellowish light. Lost in thought.

More than a week passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was the day of the sea prayer ceremony.

Lumian had just finished breakfast when he heard the sound of various musical instruments coming from the street outside.

He smiled, wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, stood up and walked towards the window that let in the bright sunshine.
