Chapter 525 The Generous Savage-Communication
When the player and the local indigenous people met for the first time, both parties were sufficiently vigilant.
But I don’t know if it counts as a bad fate. The local natives Wang Yi met for the first time were the Dali team, and the same was true for the players.
But now the language barrier is really making it difficult for both parties.
Although the player can understand the other person's words through language proficiency, it is still difficult to communicate.
In the end, only Lu Yi gritted his teeth and performed some sign language.
While making a cooing sound, he stretched out two fingers to make a 'walking' gesture, and pointed at Dali and the others.
After finishing, he put his hands together and pillowed them by his ears, turned his head and closed his eyes, "Axiu Axiu" and snored artificially to express sleep.
Although these actions were very abstract, Dalli still roughly judged that the other party wanted to show that he was following him and others.
"Captain, do they want us to take them to a resting place?"
Lisi, who was holding the bow, also said hesitantly at this time.
On the other side, during the live broadcast of a group of cloud players who were about to burst into laughter, Lu Yi also nodded repeatedly with surprise on his face. His body language was still very effective!
"Huh? Can they understand us?"
Steel Hammer took a cautious step forward and looked at Lu Yi eagerly. Are they liars in disguise?
"Oh~"
Lu Yi seemed to have noticed Gang Hammer's vigilance, and seemed a little anxious. Then he imitated their "understand" words and compared them with a poor translation
"Understand! Understand!"
But then he pointed to his mouth and kept waving his hands, "Listen! Listen!"
"Huh? He can really understand what we are saying, but does he mean that we can't understand what they are saying?"
Li Si was a little surprised. The other party said that there would be a series of actions, so it was not difficult to guess.
And communication is easier than with mutes because they can imitate some words.
After seeing the savages over there starting to jump excitedly, Lisi also looked very happy. It seemed that these savages were not very barbaric.
If it is really like the one in the song, it might really be an opportunity for the development of the town of Darnik!
Then life will be better in the future!
Captain Dali said that the bard who deceived Shalltear's wife might be an official mage!
Although Captain Dali is also a professional level master, the gap between him and the official mage is even greater than the gap between himself and him!
Sure enough, Master Mage will not target without aim.
Only the well-informed Dali looked a little solemn at this time and said in a deep voice
"It should be 'Language Proficiency'. Although this is not a very advanced spell and can be used by mage apprentices after they are proficient, but this must also be a mage..."
Dali felt a little heavy in his heart. 'Language proficiency' is not a commonly used spell, and it has little combat effectiveness. Those ordinary spell casters rarely spend a lot of energy to practice this spell model. There is a high probability that there are real mages among the savages!
Seeing Dali's discussion, Team Lu and the players watching the live broadcast also lamented the authenticity of this game.
"The setting is good. Our players have the BUFF of being proficient in the language of heroic spirits."
"Yes, originally because there were heroic spirits from all countries, we set up language proficiency to facilitate communication between players from all over the world."
"But this game is too hardcore, right? Do we need to learn a language?"
"If you can understand, it shouldn't be difficult to learn daily communication, right?"
"Yeah, it doesn't matter if the grammar is wrong, just say the meaning of the word."
"And didn't the NPC point out a clear path during this meeting? He should have specifically guided us."
“‘Language-savvy’?”
"Yes, since in the mage master's classroom, this magic is regarded as a spell that can be copied for free, then it is very likely to be useful. Isn't this coming?"
"Maybe in the future, a mage can put this spell in some equipment or accessories, activate it and apply it to the opponent, so that they can understand our words, right?"
"..."
The players' divergent thinking is quite strong, and they can just make up a big show on their own!
And when Dali and the others were shocked that they really encountered savages and that the 'prophecy' that was sung was true, they also understood that these 'savages' might have their own civilization!
If you look closely, you will see that they all look very embarrassed and covered in mud.
But underneath the mud was fine leather armor with some metal patches.
In addition, their weapons also looked a bit strange, especially the long poles held by the few behind them, which made Dali feel an inexplicable sense of threat.
The most important thing is that this is almost the end of the forest path. Last time, a group of people came to open it. The other party will definitely have to fight through thorns all the way to get out.
But when I glanced at their blades, they didn't show any signs of damage!
At that time, the machetes of everyone in my team were curled up, almost to the point of being scrapped!
Is it because of his superb forging skills, or...
For a moment, Dali's pupils shrank slightly.
Lu Yi also knew how to watch people's actions, and he vaguely sensed that the opponent's team should have that decadent bearded uncle as its core, and at least judging from the shooting of the archer girl at the beginning, the opponent's team was definitely not weak!
It is possible that his physical attributes are better than those of his own team.
The uncle's glance at the weapons of himself and others also gave Lu Yi an idea, and he thought of the immature idea in his mind before.
Since the difficulty of engraving is reduced in the abyss world due to the relationship between magic power concentration and magic infiltration, will this world lack these?
In fact, players are also in short supply of real magic engraving equipment. At least most players use ordinary equipment, because magic engraving also requires manual labor.
But if the Abyss has the advantage of simple inscription, then it is likely that the prices and scarcity levels of the two parties will still be different.
Thinking of this, Lu Yi whispered to everyone
"Turn off the live broadcast."
This made the water friends and cloud players in front of the live broadcast directly question the question.
Damn it!
You boy eat alone!
But their yelling and scolding is obviously of no use. Lu Yi can live broadcast after opening the way, but at least until the first pot of gold is made, what should be kept secret should be kept secret!
After confirming that there was no live broadcast, Lu Yi also showed a smile on his face, but then he did not draw the knife immediately for fear of causing misunderstanding.
Instead, he pointed at the machete on his waist and then at Dali.
After completing the movement, he also made a posture with his hands on his hands.
This made Dali slightly shocked. It seemed that his gaze had been noticed before, and then he said tentatively
"Are you saying you want to show me the knife or give it to me?"
"Send it!"
Lu Yi said in a very non-standard tone, but Fu Fu could still understand the meaning.
This surprised Dalidu.
If it really is the high-quality knife you imagined, then they are so generous!
Then Lu Yi untied the scabbard, grabbed the scabbard and threw it over, and was caught by Dali.
I opened the scabbard and looked at the blade of the machete, which was not much worn, and couldn't help but praise it
"Good knife!"
Then he came to the side, and just like when Lu Yi brought the goods before, he directly tested it with the branches on the side.
Feeling the silky feel and looking back at the condition of the blade, Dali couldn't help but feel even more surprised.
Then he asked cautiously.
"It seems to me that the blade is mainly made of iron. Is this a magic piece of equipment engraved with magic patterns?"
Chapter 774
Seeing Dali's shocked look, Lu Yi couldn't help but smile.
very good!
The test of this knife was very successful, and it seemed to be exactly what I expected.
The deal is done!
He is reluctant to let go of his children, so the company's machete he is giving away will be the most expensive machete ever!
"Magic pattern!"
Lu Yi repeated these two non-standard words from Dali.
A strange look appeared on Dali's face.
He actually engraved magic patterns on such ordinary iron tools!
It’s a bit of a waste of natural resources!
Generally speaking, an ordinary refined iron weapon costs between one and several gold coins when brand new, and an ordinary set of full-body armor costs about a hundred gold coins.
It must be a sky-high price for ordinary people, but it is still within the affordable range for Dali, but the full-body armor is too bulky and not suitable for his hunting activities.
The Enchanter Guild in Dunno City can provide enchanting business, but even the cheapest price requires more than ten gold coins at a time!
It must be a magic-friendly material, or be inlaid with magic gems, otherwise the material will cost extra!
The simplest magic pattern would have to be the size of a dagger.
A machete of this size would probably cost at least fifteen or even twenty gold coins for enchantment.
Even this difficult test of ordinary fine iron is probably not something that ordinary enchanters can do. Either expensive magic gems are added, or an enchantment master takes action. Either way, the cost will be at least doubled!
Although this machete seems to have the most basic reinforcement or toughness, if you only look at the value of the knife itself, it is definitely not worth the price.
With this kind of money, you can just spend about ten gold coins to find a better blacksmith and use better materials to make one without enchantment and with better performance.
This combination gave Dali a sense of humor.
But no matter what, the price of this thing is at least seven or eight gold coins. Given such a luxurious gift when they first met, Dali's expression suddenly softened and became more cheerful.
"We have heard the legends sung by bards about you, but we never thought that the prophecy was true, and it came so quickly. We didn't catch any prey today. Let's go. Our home is ahead of us, little Danik. Town.”
As he spoke, Dali also signaled the team members to put away their weapons but remain vigilant.
In addition, Lu Yi over there breathed a sigh of relief and made similar arrangements.
And when Lu Yi and the others were packing up to follow, Dali was surprised to see the luggage carried on the back of one of their team members.
They are also in tatters, stained with some mud and broken leaves, but those leathers...
Warcraft?
"Excuse me, is that the skin of a monster? The skin of a wind demon wolf?"
Dali's eyes widened, and he could only say that he was worthy of being a savage who could walk in the World of Warcraft Forest?
The Wind Demon Wolf is a kind of monster that is a headache for Dali. Even if their team encounters it, it will be very difficult. They usually give each other warnings and demonstrations to make the Wind Demon Wolf retreat.
Because these things usually come in groups, Dali thought that if he didn't prepare traps in advance, he might be able to fight with co-ordination and skill, but even if he won, it would probably be a miserable victory!
There will inevitably be attrition, and if you encounter more than three, you will probably be wiped out.
Fortunately, the Wind Demon Wolf usually only comes out to eat. There are also many ordinary beasts in the Warcraft Forest, and they can still bring enough deterrence after showing enough strength.
Both parties will separate after testing it out.
Because of this, the price of the Wind Demon Wolf's skin is pretty good. If it's in good condition, it can be sold for about fifteen gold coins.
It seemed that the price was only a little more expensive than the thousand-pound wild boar skin he had shot, but that wild boar weighed a full thousand pounds, and the leather size was much larger, so more leather armor could be made. The result was that Not as expensive as Feng Mo Lang.
It is said that the Wind Demon Wolf's leather armor can be enchanted by an enchanter with the ability to "walk in the wind", which can increase its own speed and reduce air resistance. Enchantment cannot be made of any material and can be enchanted with all types.
But I didn't expect that they actually have the skin of the Wind Demon Wolf here!
And the most important thing is that he is still wallowing in the mud?
What a waste of natural resources!
Enchanting iron tools and not cherishing fur made Dali feel a little sad.
Can you only say that he is worthy of being a savage?
Lu Yi also noticed Dali's words and the expression on his face, and then he turned around and picked up the large package of loot along the way.
"Pi, on the way."
He muttered two simple words and then made some gestures, which probably made them understand that these were the furs of prey on the road.
Lu Yi also wanted to ask these locals to estimate the price.
The two sides made gestures with each other for a while. Relying on the player's language proficiency, Dali and the others kept trying and guessing, and finally completed the communication and understood each other's meaning.
Dali was also curious at first, and since he had received a handful of expensive gifts earlier, he began to make some calculations.
Just looking at the spread leather, the flesh on Dali's face couldn't help but tremble, with a distressed expression all over his face.
I didn't even notice it when I looked at it from a distance at first. I just thought it was stained by mud. Now that it's spread out, what kind of rough treatment is this?
It was as if a dog had chewed it. Some of the holes in the leather looked like weapon wounds and strange penetrating wounds with a slight burnt color, but most of them seemed to be caused by poor craftsmanship when cutting the fur!
This kind of hunter will kill you! Damn it!
But then as the leather was spread out, Dali's expression became solemn after he saw clearly the prey that Lu Yi and the others were hunting along the way.
The three wind demon wolves should be moving together.
A Moon Shadow Leopard! It is also a very tricky monster, good at ambush!
If the Wind Demon Wolf can avoid collisions through intimidation, then the Moon Shadow Leopard may cause attrition when it takes action.
Even some people who are obviously stronger than the Moon Shadow Leopard may die in a sneak attack.
In addition to the Moon Shadow Explosion, he even saw a bear skin of the Earth Bear and four bear paws.
This earth bear probably weighs more than 1,500 pounds. Coupled with the earth bear's own innate magic, it can form heavy armor when standing on the earth, and some of them can also release earth thorns.
Physically powerful and capable of magical harassment, he is absolutely powerful.
Although the 1,500-pound Earth Bear should be classified as a sub-adult, Dali would not dare to lead the team to try it unless he fell into their trap.
Even if you fall into a trap, you may still risk injury or even attrition when dealing with it.
The advantage of human hunting is that it can use tools, skills and wisdom, but the same hunting is just for food, and usually it is not life-threatening.
Those who are sub-adult will wait and see the effect, while those who are adults will definitely give up directly.
But now this troublesome monster has become a trophy for the savages?
Are they so strong?
Although the professional level does not rely on breathing to activate magic power to launch attacks, it is difficult to judge directly with the naked eye. Kodali thought to himself that he was very experienced and really couldn't see that they were so strong!
But whether it was the Earth Bear, the Moon Shadow Leopard, or the Wind Demon Wolf, Dali saw a penetrating wound on the fur with some scorch marks on the edges.
Is this their ultimate move?
Or is it their innate magic?
Language proficiency release also has a duration. Is this also a passive talent?
What a mysterious race...
Chapter 775 Communication
"This kind is called Naxi, which is our main currency in circulation. This kind of gold coin is equivalent to one hundred Naxi, but because it can be stored for a long time, the normal exchange of gold coins can get one or two points more depreciation fee, but it is priced in gold coins. Most of the products have been taken into account, and usually the change is more obvious and noticeable in the range close to one gold coin..."
Dali accepted a machete from Lu Yi, and knowing that they could understand the language and were strong enough, he was willing to sell some favors. While leading them towards the town of Danik, he started to do some simple things. introduce.
There is no doubt that these first-hand information are the real "secrets of land reclamation" for players. Although Lu Yi gave away the machete, it is obvious that it is worth every penny.
A true win-win!
Moreover, they will also record Dali’s words directly, so that they can study and ponder over and over again, making it easy to ‘learn foreign languages’!
After all, if you can understand it, you just need to memorize the pronunciation of some of the most commonly used words.
In this kind of environment, you can force them to learn it!
Some people may have been working in other places for more than ten years and still cannot speak the local dialect.
But in fact, the main reason is that I can already communicate in Mandarin, so I don’t deliberately learn it systematically.
But now the problem on their side is that they can understand through language proficiency, but they can't express it. This is like chasing the duck to the shore.
To speak fluently is certainly not easy for ordinary players, but as long as you have some daily vocabulary, it is no problem at all with the help of language proficiency.
Players are able to face NPCs with a detached mentality, and it is with this mentality that they keenly captured Dali's actions of trying to figure out how to kill the Earth Bear.
"I'm afraid this team is not weak. Maybe there are professional-level players."
"Yes, although they marvel at our prey, they seem to want to know more about our killing methods."
Lu Yi and the others were also having some internal exchanges at this time.
Is the first NPC I just met so strong? But it may be because of the relationship between guiding NPCs.
Although Lu Yi relied on their training to have the ability to cooperate and kill monsters even without a gun.
But this relies more on the players' "iron will" that they are not afraid of getting hurt, plus their training skills, which are superimposed on multiple factors.
And whether you are facing the three-headed Wind Demon Wolf or the Earth Bear, the heavy musket that can break through defenses and cause a lot of damage has made a great contribution.
Even the thick-skinned and thick-skinned Flame Dogs could not withstand the speed of the propellant triggered by the flint. Although the Earth Bear's defense was stronger than that of the Flame Dogs, it could hold them back and keep firing.
However, they also relied on heavy muskets, so they thought they still had a certain ability to protect themselves.
"The game will not suddenly increase in difficulty too much. When you leave the forest, you will meet a guide. This should be a benefit for our land reclamation team."
"Yes, this game is so real. Even the guiding NPC is so lifelike. It looks like a coincidence. Moreover, it is a brand new language and a brand new language. It is really amazing."
"After all, they have information about the ruins they dug up."
Because Lu Yi gave him a machete, which was worth enough to equal what the Dali team could harvest in a normal day, they had no intention of continuing hunting.
It's the rainy season now, and hunting is more difficult. It's better to take this group of savages back and maybe get some benefits.
Although Dali disdains cheating because of his personality, normal transactions are always completely fine.
This group of savages needs a lot of things like this, and they are rich and powerful, so they will not suffer any loss in trade!
Not to mention other things, just the few pieces of skin they got, although the treatment method was too fucked up, which made people sad.
But the more so, the more valuable it is.
This shows that they don’t know how to handle leather!
It doesn't matter if you don't know how to handle it. You can sell it to us first. You guys don't have start-up capital, right?
Then they rely on their own craftsmanship to repair and sew the leathers as much as possible, and then sell them to fur traders, so that they can make another fortune.
The gold coins exchanged have to be consumed, right?
Other basic necessities such as food, clothing, housing and transportation can be considered as an income.
If you are a generous person who gives out such a gift when you meet him, it will definitely be a win-win situation for everyone to exchange information...
……
Here, Lu Yi and his team were following Dali and the others back towards the town of Darnic.
The player group and cloud player group also exploded.
"Eating alone is too much!"
"NPC, I finally came into contact with it, and the language is completely new. It's so powerful."
"They have paid so much for this kind of land reclamation, and they will definitely not share the benefits easily. However, I know that Lu Yi and his team will eat alone in the early stage, but they will still be released after they drink the soup."
"Yes, Yan Dog was like this at the beginning, and others had already figured it out, so they started posting video guides."
"Is there any expert in linguistics who will do some research on whether we will have to learn a foreign language in the future? It's a headache."
"Just some basic words will be enough, but now it seems that Master is still strong. I am afraid that the language proficiency will become a popular model. I wonder if there is a way to engrave it on something..."
……
"Qianqian, now that you have the highest level of magic among us, do you think it is possible to simplify 'language proficiency' into equipment?"
After today's magic class ended, Jiang Bo also found the opportunity to exchange a few words with Gu Qianqian.
Because Jiang Bo himself likes to delve into research, although he only has 12 points of mental power, he can still maintain his relationship with Qianqian and Yoko in the class, and he is considered a relatively familiar classmate.
This can be seen from the fact that he can ask Qianqian to help him inscribe the 'flame strengthening'.
"Ah? Why don't you ask the teacher?"
Gu Qianqian said strangely that being able to ask the teacher for advice on some issues was the strongest point where the students in their class were better than Master Yun.
"I asked, and the teacher said it's okay, but the teachers who teach are all formal mages, and the situation of our current players is still a little different, so I want to hear your opinion."
"I think it can be done in small quantities, but it doesn't mean much if it is popularized. Unlike 'Fire Strengthening', 'Language Proficiency' is a complete spell model, which mainly relies on spell casting. If we have the materials and are proficient enough, maybe we can It can be done, but these materials may require silver or magic gems, and ordinary materials cannot bear it.”
Gu Qianqian thought for a while and then gave the answer based on some of her own understanding.
Of course mass production is possible, but it is not something that current players can do!
It would be more convenient to just have Umbrella prepare it and transport it over to sell as NPC items...
Well, Wang Yi taught me before entering the game, and Lin Shiqin pretended to be Wang Yi to fill in some information on weekdays.
Coupled with some feelings after entering the game, with Gu Qianqian's talent, she naturally felt that this world was unusual.
The palpitation caused by the magic power fluctuations caused by Zhabo and Enzo last time made her keep asking the teacher after returning.
Although the teacher did not answer.
But in fact, it is already an answer without an answer...
So now her real-life meditation has been moved into the game. As a born mage with yin and yang eyes, Gu Qianqian's mental power can greatly extend her meditation effect and meditation time.
In the past, magic power on Earth was lazy and there was not much auxiliary effect. Now, with hard work and talent, Gu Qianqian feels that she can improve significantly almost every day.
Unlike the breathing method, which affects the physical body and needs to be used offline, meditation obviously directly affects the spirit, which is a great benefit for mage players!
However, she recently discovered that in the newly opened class for internal testing, there seemed to be a guy with some problems. He probably had more than 20 mental powers. Perhaps, he could also see some strange things in reality.
If you have time, maybe you can get in touch and have a look.
Since the teacher is a big shot in Umbrella, he can be considered half of Umbrella's own, so he still needs to have a sense of ownership.
The heavy responsibility of maintaining the peace of players in this 'game world' probably falls on my own shoulders...
