mission details

The partner around you leaves you again for various reasons, but you are accustomed to it. But anyway, the adventure has to go on. Ordinary life can make you feel at a loss, and only a life of adventure, exciting and dangerous can make you find yourself.

The 'dirty novel' adventure team from Muya city-state took a fancy to you and hired you as a guide with a generous salary. There are many reasons for this, not only because you are a skilled and experienced adventurer, but also because you are a Nord—a fellow Nord who previously died in the "Dirty Fiction" team.

They hope that after this mission, you can officially join the 'dirty novel' team, but that's a matter of the future.

As for now, winter has passed, and the frost worms will return to their bottomless nests, so there is not much time left for you.

Go, the misty forest is calling you.

Quest reward: 100 soul energy. 】

what on earth is it? What is the so-called soul energy? Who will give me this reward? Barrett frowned and pursed his lips at the strange words in front of him. The patterned tattoos on his forehead were crowded together due to the frowning movement, looking like a black iris about to bloom.

These words actually jumped out uncontrollably, and Barrett was really panicked about it. And the narration-like task description in an opera makes Barrett feel in a trance like an opera actor standing on stage for others to enjoy.

Barrett didn't like opera, and the weird voices of the actors when they sang. Why can't I sing well with a normal voice? As a Nord barbarian, he did not understand the so-called high art that the nobles often listened to.

I would rather play a clown myself than sing with those high or low voices. Barrett thought wildly. But I'm not very good at making people laugh, and he hesitated.

"What? Is there any problem?" Old Will looked at Barrett. "You seem to be confused again. Is this task embarrassing you? But I have to say that your eyes don't seem to focus on this. On the task book, unless you're a slanted eye like a kobold I know." He smiled.

Old Will's words brought Barret back to his senses, the barbarian adventurer shook his head vigorously, and found that the words in front of him disappeared again.

If it goes on like this, one day I will be insane, and I will become like the 'Mad Tom' in my hometown, who is in a trance every day, full of incomprehensible ravings.

The kids in town like to bully 'Mad Tom', including Barrett. Because 'Mad Tom' is not only crazy, but also small and short. Although he is actually a pure-blooded Nord, not a half-blood like Barrett, there is no such thing as a dwarf in his size, but a dwarf.

Being bullied, 'Mad Tom' will also say some harsh words. He will hold his head and run while shouting, "Wait for me, when I have ten mana!"

Barrett doesn't know what this sentence means. In fact, no one knows, and no one cares about a madman's words.

Damn, now is not the time to think about all these miscellaneous things. Barret raised his head and found that old Will, half-elf and ogre were all looking at him.

"No, it's not about the task," he explained. Taking a deep breath, Barrett carefully looked at the content on the parchment in his hand. It only described the goals of the mission and the rewards that he could get, and there was nothing else superfluous.

The lower right corner of the parchment is printed with two patterns, one of which is the magic seven-pointed star, which is the logo of the Magic Association; logo.

This means that the issuer of this quest is a mage in the Magic Association, and the Magic Association has assigned the quest to the Adventurer's Guild of Muya city-state.

"There are things that really confuse me." Barrett rolled up the parchment, tied it with blue straps, and handed it back to Old Will, "but not for this task."

"If you can, talk to me." Old Will looked at Barrett with piercing eyes.

"You..." Barrett glanced at Mage Will opposite, hesitated, and then, as if made up his mind, stretched the fingers of his left hand to the wine glass next to him, where the rye beer was still light. a bottom.

With his fingers moistened with rye wine, Barrett gestured horizontally and vertically on the table, and he drew the word "Sun" in an orderly manner.

He thought about it for a while, and seemed to feel that the word '日' was not enough to explain the problem. He again dipped the rye beer on the bottom of the glass with the index finger of his left hand, and then slowly wrote the word 'zhi'. He wrote the word slowly, but it was still a little distorted when he finished it.

"Do you recognize these two words?" Barrett pointed to the 'log' drawn with rye beer on the table and asked Mage Will who started smoking his pipe again.

The mages are always very knowledgeable. Their strong curiosity and strong power make them want to study and understand almost everything, so they always give ordinary people a sense of omniscience. In fact, the entire group of mages is indeed not too far from 'all-knowing'.

The mage Will in front of him claimed to have lived to be 200 years old, so he must be very knowledgeable. Barrett hopes to get a little help from him.

Old Will leaned over and took a closer look, frowned and pondered for a while: "Are you sure these patterns are words? Not some kind of mark? We all know that most of the mage marks created by mages for themselves are very special. ."

"It should be a word, or maybe some kind of rune, but it won't be some kind of mark." Barrett replied.

Mark is lonely and out of place, just like him, even if he joins the "Dirty Novel" adventure team, he seems a little out of place. And the words and runes will have 'brothers', they will be united to show different meanings in different lists.

"In my 200-year memory, there is no text on the entire continent that has this structure." The 200-year-old Master Will pondered, carefully figuring out the patterns on the table, "but from their structure From the perspective of correlation, it is indeed likely to belong to some type of script that has not yet been known. "UU Reading www.uukanshu.com" The white smoke spurted from the nostrils of the mage, reminding Baritt of the mist in the misty forest.

"Words don't just represent the expression of meaning, it alludes to the birth and evolution of a civilization. And the original words and language also have very powerful power." Mage Will seems to be a good teacher, "It is spread within the Mage. The idea that there was only one script and language in the original multiverse, and that script could only be used by a handful of beings far more powerful than legendary wizards and gods."

Taking advantage of his interest, Master Will told some unknown legends to the guys in front of him, "Because of some unknown factors, at an unresearched historical point in time, part of this single text The power contained in them was stripped away by those powerful beings, so that more species could learn to use them. Later, in the long historical transformation, the original words that were stripped of their power gradually evolved into many types. Even now, You can still find some peculiar traces, like Common, High Elf, and Orc, which has very few words, and they all spell the word 'mother' in much the same way."

After he finished speaking, he was silent for a while, glanced around the crowd with his eyes, and then said, "Of course, this is just an opinion that cannot be determined right or wrong."

"If they..." The mage pointed to the word 'log', his eyes brightened, as if a child had accidentally discovered a novel toy: "If it is indeed some kind of text, usually speaking , there should be other similar existences, which undoubtedly have high research value, so do you know more?"

"This..." Barrett hesitated, not knowing how to answer.
