  Chapter 21 Decryption Diary

  【The dwarf blacksmith looked at you with satisfaction: "You made a smart choice. Weapons are indeed the most essential thing for an adventurer. I have three ready-made weapon molds here, and you can choose one of them."】

  Three options [Mithril Hammer], [Mithril Sword], [Mithril Bow].

   There is no need to hesitate about this one, Mithril Bow!

[The dwarf blacksmith took out a thunder snake tendon from the warehouse, which is also one of the bowstring materials necessary for forging Mithril bows. It can make the forged bows and arrows have a paralyzing effect after hitting them. It is because you entered the shop for the first time to make them. , The blacksmith said that he can provide you with this thunder snake tendon for free, but in addition, you have to pay for the 10-year lifespan as the construction cost, do you want to pay immediately? 】

   "Ten years..."

   Mu You touched his chin.

  This dwarf comes with an additional material, but it takes ten years to build it. To be honest, it’s a bit expensive...but it’s still cheaper than buying weapons directly in the store.

  Thinking of the weapons in the store that often have a lifespan of hundreds of years, and now that they only need a lifespan of ten years, it doesn't seem so unacceptable.

   "Pay!"

  【You agree to the dwarf's offer. Lifespan -10, remaining lifespan 48 years. 】

  【The dwarf sent you out of the blacksmith shop, and then took your mithril into the workshop...】

   The text gets stuck here.

   Mu You tried to click to enter the blacksmith shop again, but a prompt popped up.

  【The forging work needs to last for more than ten hours, please wait patiently...】

   "Ten hours, it seems that I can get it in the afternoon..."

   Mu You exhaled.

   At this time, the last point of action power has been used up, and he planned to go offline directly, but another prompt popped up in the game.

  【You walked out of the blacksmith shop, and suddenly saw an owl descending from the sky, landed on your shoulder, and stuffed the package in its mouth into your hand. 】

  【You open the package, and inside is a brand new "Protoss Dictionary". 】

   "Oh? The courier has arrived!"

   Mu You was refreshed. The game text in the early hours of the morning indicated that the courier would be delivered within 24 hours. I didn't expect it to be delivered in less than eight hours, and it was really 'delivered', not ambiguous at all.

   The owl courier is really reliable!

  Mu You clicked on the entry of 'Owl', and in the pop-up options, gave it a five-star praise.

   Then I clicked on ‘Protoss Dictionary’.

  A thick hardcover book appeared in Mu You's hands. The dark blue cover was engraved with gaudy runes, and when he opened the inside, he found that there were densely packed various star spirit symbols inside.

   However, as soon as Mu You saw the protoss characters in the book, the corresponding Chinese translation would automatically appear in his mind.

   "Stream of consciousness automatic translation dictionary?"

   Mu You looked at the words on the book strangely, and once again deeply realized the magic of magic.

  Next, Mu You found a pen and paper, and started to study the book seriously from the first page.

Endorsement has never been something he is good at, not to mention the symbols of these Protoss languages, the structure is so abstract, it is a bit like a combination of Arabic and Greek, and these two are recognized as the most difficult languages ​​on earth one.

The rules of Arabic word formation are unique and complex, and several homographs can be derived from one root; as for Greek, it is also famous for its weird mixed syllables and rich inflectional structures. challenge.

  The protoss language is stronger, taking into account the characteristics of both, and its level of obscurity far exceeds all current human languages!

   It is conceivable that for a person without any foundation in Protoss language, if he wants to learn this language abruptly from scratch, it will be a cruel massacre to brain cells.

   Fortunately, the upgraded intelligence attributes have significantly improved Mu You's comprehension ability and memory, and the recitation speed has been greatly improved, which is why he was not persuaded to quit at the beginning.

   Even so, it took him ten hours to fully recognize the language structure and thirty-seven basic symbols of the Protoss language.

   In short, he can finally understand the root directory of this dictionary now...

   At the end, Mu You was so moved that tears streamed down his face: ten hours is equivalent to that he has just mastered the usage of this dictionary, which shows how difficult it is to get started with this language.

   After a wry smile, Mu You opened the game and took out the 'Diary of a Patrolman' from it.

   After studying hard for a day, it is finally time to test the results.

   Spreading the two books on the desk at the same time, Mu You took a pen and paper, and began to translate the contents of the diary word by word.

   "January 3, sunny."

"Today is my first time to watch. The village at night is as dark as ink. If it weren't for the pumpkin lanterns to help me illuminate, I wouldn't dare to go out. I always feel that there is something staring at me in the darkness around me." ..."

  …

   Judging from the time, it seems that the owner of the diary only had the identity of a watchman half a year ago.

The first few diaries had slightly more words, but they were written in the same way as elementary school students’ journal essays. They were basically saying that I encountered such-and-such trifles during typing tonight, and described the details in a horrifying manner. scare yourself.

   After translating seven or eight pages in a row, nothing happened. Mu You completely lost his patience. He simply turned to the last page and decided to start translating from the back to the front.

   As a result, this reversal immediately brought him a surprise!

  The date on the last page is June 17th. If the dates of the two worlds correspond, it would be exactly a week ago.

   Mu You looked at the contents of the diary.

   "June 17, overcast."

  "Recently, I've been hearing some strange sounds, as if someone was calling for help..."

   "At first I didn't pay attention, thinking it was just an illusion caused by overwork..."

"Until tonight, when I was patrolling the cemetery outside the village, the voice that had been faintly heard suddenly rang in my ear at a very loud volume: 'Help...who will save me...Master...help me ...'"

"I tried to communicate with this voice and asked if it was buried in a cemetery. However, the owner of the voice told me that it was a familiar raised by a wizard. swept away and drifted to a completely strange place."

   "I asked where it had gone, but the other party replied with a very puzzling sentence."

   "It said that there is a steel jungle full of tall buildings, and there are fools everywhere... There are also many iron boxes roaring on the road... The iron boxes ate the fools, and then ran away..."

Well? ? ?

   Mu You was stunned.

   Originally, he enjoyed reading it as a short suspenseful novel, but the plot seemed to suddenly develop in a strange direction.

  The Fool...referring to human beings, right?

  The 'tall buildings, steel forests, and fools everywhere'... Does this refer to being in a human city?

   There is also the 'iron box' at the back, 'eat the fool, and then run', this... Could it be a car?

  So this is to say that there is a domestic pet in the wizarding world who wandered to the earth in a daze?
