Dawn of the Grey Tower

Chapter 440: Sand Shell

"Dawn of the Grey Tower (

The name is sometimes not so easy to report. This is also quite interesting. Before you give out your name, don't you say you don't exist? People and things as the subject matter of the name, of course, exist before their names before they are named or recognized, otherwise the world will be a huge dictionary with only one name in it. There is nothing behind the name.

If there is a real thing first, and then there is a name taboo placed on it, then the name taboo itself becomes less important, because even the content it refers to may not last forever, referring to the name of this content How can it be conclusive?

"I think they might call themselves Kadada..." Luo Luo showed a very subtle expression when she said this onomatopoeia that is more like a claw strike than its name.

This is not to blame for her. For species that use rhythmic percussion to communicate, the two seemingly close sounds of click and da may contain endless changes. The so-called click sound is just a sound to humans. It may be all truth in their language.

"Sandshells, I think we can call them that. Of course, they should be called clicks in their language, or any similar name." Cheese understands the dilemma in the expression of dancers, and she has to translate the two kinds of expressions. Different language systems, and even one of them is not a language expressed by humans in a narrow sense through vocal organs.

Many problems will inevitably arise in this. This is not only a test of Lolo's ability to feel, but also a test of her ability to master her own language to express those concepts and ideas that do not conform to conventional logic as much as possible. In a sense, this is the ability that every prophet must master, which is about turning indescribable into utterable.

"Well, the sand shell people, it sounds appropriate. In short, they are indeed the aboriginal people here. According to their description, this sandbar should have been a bulge hidden under the water surface, something washed down in the river. It will settle here, and the sand shell people make a living on this. The sand shell people in front of us are warriors and collectors of the clan. Under normal circumstances, their job is to collect food on the surface of the sand dune to feed the interior of the sand. Of the people."

After saying this, we can indeed see that many sand-shell people did not eat it immediately after picking up the food, but sent it to the snail shell behind it. The protrusions on the shells are like slots that hold the food pieces of appropriate size in them.

It is worth noting that not all sandshells have suitable grooves on their backs, so traces of manual gouges can be clearly seen on the carapace of some individuals. This makes it easy to think of those laborers whose bodies are deformed because they have to perform specific heavy physical labor. In fact, in many more primitive areas, there are many similar customs in human communities that maintain tribal life. This is also a way to adapt to nature.

"The next thing is almost the same as you guessed. From a certain time on, the sandshell people described it as a turbulent moon. The underwater dunes they live in have undergone drastic changes, and the familiar terrain has become a strange maze. Fortunately, the food reserves within the ethnic group are sufficient to avoid problems. In order to get rid of the predicament, they organized an expedition team to try to explore the maze structure and find a way to the predation ground."

Lolo looked at the sand shell man waving the claws, and then turned to explain to his companions, "They said that this team has been out for a long time. It feels like it should have been for many years, but I don’t know. Its specific duration."

A sense of time, this is something as subtle as the name. In fact, it is not only the calendar of the Sandshells that is a mystery to humans, but also the human calendar for the races that have the closest interaction with humans. The average life expectancy of each race is different, and the understanding of nature is also different.

For example, a year in the elf calendar is actually composed of many springs, summers, autumns and winters. Because of their long lifespan, they can find regularities in the rotation of these seasons. Humans do not have this ability. In most civilizations, the human calendar corresponds to the starry sky. By observing the day, night, and seasons, humans can summarize the cycle of time and make use of it.

As spellcasters, they have to have a broader vision than ordinary people. Of course, they understand the truth that the calendar is not compatible. Therefore, the long years that the Sand Shell feels may only be a few weeks or a month for humans. This is a non-reference message, at least as long as they don't have a deep understanding of the sand shell people's concept of time. But immediately, Luo Luo's expression changed significantly.

"They said that during the exploration, there was a lot of damage to their hands. Some of the sandshells who disappeared went to the rocky land where we came before, and the other part went to other places. Although they are not sure what killed the people. What is the specific reason, but they hope we don’t get close to these two places, they are very dangerous."

The words stopped here, the dancer's expression showed that she had guessed what was in the second restricted area pointed out by the sand shell.

"They found him. Then they were swallowed. The cultists above the ground couldn't find the shell people under the sand. Those who can do this must be inhuman. That is, our goal." Hui Robe said calmly, his gaze wandering around the sand shell man, thinking whether these suddenly appearing creatures were credible.

Everything they say is based on the truthfulness of the preface. If they performed maliciously from the beginning, cheating is not very difficult. The truth? lie? Unpredictable. Whenever this happened, Cheese began to hope that Atta and her magic sword would be by his side, and the abilities of the oathbreaker should also be effective for these sandshells.

No, before knowing the female swordsman, didn't he know that there are lies in the world? Relying on the magic sword will be a joke for a gray robe, and the answer must be found through his own hands~www.readwn.com~ opportunistic tricks also have to be mastered.

Think, reason, and confirm the credibility of the words spoken by the things in front of you through the logic tower built. This is the behavior and style of the gray robe.

"How do you think it's credible?" Wei Ya suddenly asked. She probably thought of the same question as cheese, but she didn't try to give the answer alone like cheese.

Unlike the Grey Tower, the wizards of the City of Ten Thousand Laws are better at teamwork. They clearly recognize the limitations of personal experience and experience. They also know that the best way to make up for this shortcoming is to blend the opinions of different people. collision.

"No way to judge." Gray Robe stood up as he said, shaking off the sand gently.

"There is no precursor to the appearance of the Sand Shell, and Lolo's translation is not absolutely guaranteed. All clues are based on unstable cornerstones. I can give ten insights to prove the reliability of their discourse, and I can also use them. Ten opinions to refute each point of view. Therefore, there is no way to judge. But no way to judge is a kind of judgment itself, it means at least one thing."

"We still have a greater choice. Instead of binding our rationality to a reasonable path with the clues piled up." The female mage quickly said the words that Cheese didn't finish.

Her reaction caused Gray Robe to cast his eyes unconsciously, and he felt a tacit understanding from this woman more than once. This tacit understanding does not come from any peculiar commonality, it comes from a similar way of thinking.

Does Grey Tower’s education really come from the line of wizards? Then why would my own ideas coincide with the mage of the City of All Laws? For these troubles, Cheese chose to temporarily shelve it.

"Ask them if they want to tell us the direction of the second restricted zone. It can at least be used as a reference."
