Dawn of the Grey Tower

This world is very vast, and in this immensely vast world, there is a vitality that people cannot imagine. No one knows how the earliest humans came into contact with elves and dwarves, and it is impossible to know whether demons and demons were full of malice when they first entered this world. But in short, people who travel frequently will soon get used to one thing. Nothing in this world is incredible, because truly incredible, only people who maintain such a narrow concept can survive to this day. In addition, everything is possible within Daqianhuanyu.

Fortunately, Fioni and Fetis travel frequently, and they know the vastness of the world and its limitations. Therefore, when barnacles, oh no, you have to call them shell people. When shell people actively communicate with them, neither of them spent too much time to sigh, but quickly accepted that the other is also a kind of independent thinking. Fact of the race. Of course, accepting accepting accepting, it is impossible to say that Kraken and Witch are not curious about these shells. As we all know, the intelligent creatures in this world probably have a certain figure.

Among them, humans can be used as a model. The small ones are like dwarfs, dwarves, and the big ones are like giants and dragons. Although their shapes vary greatly, the shortest races have a height of at least nearly one meter. The casters who study this content call this phenomenon the bottom line of enlightenment. They believe that a natural creature that is not spawned by magic must at least exceed this bottom line in order to be able to possess human-like intelligence. As for a life like a goblin born out of natural power or magic energy, it does not need to adhere to this bottom line.

This is why Fetis did not initially believe that Shell people are a race that can communicate. No matter how you look at it, these magical shells are too far from the bottom line of enlightenment. However, the clever witch immediately thought that this so-called bottom line is usually applicable to humanoid creatures. If they are not viviparous or oviparous, and since the structure of shellfish is not the same as the previous two, then For them, it is also normal for this bottom line restriction not to apply. If it is the gray robe mage here, then we must not care about others now, and put all our energy into the study of the new intelligent creature, the shell man. The witch is more pragmatic. After accepting the existence of the shell man, the warden thought of what kind of help these incredible little things can provide for their trip.

The witch's idea came true quickly, because the shells' next move made her realize how valuable they are in this space. I saw that foam began to appear in the mouthparts of the shells. They looked like crabs just caught from the water, but they spit out not sand and food debris, but white powder mixed in the foam. , That is the sea salt that makes up the salt line! Fioni hadn't realized what the shell people were doing when they spit out sea salt from their mouths. However, soon, as the shells evenly spread the salt particles from their mouths on the rocks, the salt line that was just interrupted by the falling stones was reconnected, forming a complete barrier.

"This," the Kraken stared at what was happening in front of him. He saw the shell people consciously retreat to the inside of the salt line after finishing the work. Some of them were still checking along the gravel to see if there was any other damage. It was not found. Fioni turned his head to look at the witch, "Did you not say that these things must come through the shaman's hand to work?"

Fetis's brow furrowed, and her magically blessed eyes could clearly see that the salt thread made by the shells was emitting the same light as the previous salt thread. It is undoubtedly unnatural to awaken the power of dead things, but the fact is that it seems that the shell people can easily do this, although at present, they can only wake up the bone powder of giants.

"Where did you find these grains of salt?" The governor asked the shell people. She didn't know which shell person she had communicated with herself, so she could only ask all shell people. After just a few seconds, a large number of responses made the witch almost scream. It took her some effort to calm down the sounds that lingered in her mind. It seemed that each shell person had the ability to communicate. This was a new discovery. "Please answer me by one person, you have too many voices I can't tell."

After a few minutes, the witch guessed that the shells were choosing who to represent and negotiate with themselves. You should know that although the language of the two sides does not pose a problem in the communication process just now, the language habits of the shell people are still different from humans and sea monsters. The evidence is that they almost only use nouns. There are two possibilities for this phenomenon. First, the way people think is like this. The things in their eyes are a stack of nouns. This is a fairly primitive mode of thinking because it is too restrictive and is not conducive to language communication. Second, the reason why Fetis thinks it is more likely is that the shell people are not saying "speech" to them. People are always used to expressing their opinions in words, but words are not the only way. Images, emotions and other factors can be used as a means of communication. The way people communicate depends on the information particles that are spread into the air, then Compared to using grammar to communicate, the witch has every reason to believe that it is a quicker way to wrap the images and emotions she sees in the particles to let her peers feel.

Sure enough, the information obtained after waiting is no longer a simple vocabulary. Some images flowed into Fetis's mind wrapped in consciousness, allowing her to understand the meaning of the shell people in just a moment. It seems that this kind of communication and language is difficult to tell who is better. "It turns out so." The witch nodded. Judging from the information given to her by the shell man, they really did not understand the so-called shamanic witchcraft. What activates the salt is a natural secretion from the shell man. This makes sense. Things in nature are not all single-pointed. In many cases, similar raw materials can produce the same result under different effects. If there is a substance that can activate giant bone powder in the shell, it is not impossible.

And this made Fetis aware of another question, "How long have you lived here?" This time Shellman's reply was confusing. They didn't understand witch or "long time" in human mouth. "The concept. After all, there is neither the sun nor the tide in this dark space, and it is impossible to calculate time at all, so the shell people do not seem to have the concept of time due to the evolution of nature. But according to them, their ancestors still had flesh and blood here, living in the same material age as the things that grew on Fiorni and Fetis. This is interesting, when there is still an era of flesh and blood ... Isn't that just when the Thunder Giant just died!

"I think, in a sense, these little guys in front of us are probably the purest blood descendants of giants. Each of them and their ancestors grew up on the body of the giant." The witch's expression Somewhat strange, on the one hand, she instinctively hates these scavengers, just like people will hate hyenas and vultures, but on the other hand, the undisguised kindness and gratitude of the shell people in communication makes her unable to connect these little guys Ugly and mean ghouls are associated. This subtle sense of contradiction makes one wonder how to look at the shell people.

But the Kraken obviously does not have this problem ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ In the sea, Fioni has seen too many ways of survival that are more contrary to human moral common sense than scavenging. He does not think that those creatures have any errors. It is just humans, or races close to humans, that should not be placed on other creatures with their own moral values. "They do. But I don't think it's a problem. Since his bone marrow will become a monster, is it right for him to turn the barnacles into shells? And I like these little guys more than at least, at least they Know how to create and maintain. "

The witch kept silent this time, and she looked at Fiorni. "Okay, what you said makes sense. Then you may ask how these shells think of us. I mean, our flesh may be better than Go giant, but it must be fresher than these bones. "

"This, I don't think you need to worry. I asked these friends. Their current recipes are mainly sand. And as long as they don't exercise, they can not eat for a long time." Fioni raised his eyebrows, indicating that the witch was unnecessary. Worried about the threat of shell people, "Moreover, they are still willing to take us around here, I don't think we need to refuse right?"

Fetis nodded reluctantly. She was not afraid of shells, but simply hated the feeling of being led by her master to tour in his garden. "Let them go back first. Wait for our people to rest Okay, let's visit again. "
