Arcane Linguist

Chapter 268 The influence of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"

Silena Mage Tower, in the laboratory.

Gallo continues to explore ways to optimize and improve Orth's magical writing.

From the phonetic symbols of the European alphabet to the magical characters of the European language, from daily use to magical construction, he created a set of almost perfect language rules according to the laws of linguistics.

Function words, prepositions, verbs, quantifiers, tenses and yin and masculine...

Then to inversion, doubt, denial, etc.

There are magic modifications at the arcane level.

Even, learn from the Seris language and try to splice Seres-style words.

But after trying it for a while, I couldn't help but sigh.

"In just one year, the number of words and corresponding rules in Orth's magic words have become so complicated. Especially in terms of name reference, there are serious flaws...

If this continues, sooner or later the noun will expand and even explode! "

The ancients only needed to record basic natural things and phenomena such as heaven, earth, sun, moon, wind, rain, thunder, lightning, water, fire, flesh, and stone. The primitive language was completely adequate.

However, with the practice of productive labor, the requirements for the ability of language and characters to carry information will become higher and higher.

The efficiency gap between different languages ​​will quickly become apparent.

This will even in turn affect the development of productivity.

Now Gallo is also experiencing this problem.

Orth's magic words...

In terms of magical meaning, it has reached a certain bottleneck.

"It is inherently deficient and cannot carry the rich information of arcana!"

He rubbed his temples, but veins still popped up on his forehead, and the loss and annoyance in his heart never disappeared.

With a bit of reluctance, Galloyu poured some valuable materials into the alchemy device next to him.

The crucible-like alchemy furnace began to operate, mixing the magic potion he needed.

Powder containing magic, large pearls, precious blood of strange beasts, moon spring water from the land of elves...

After a while, several thousand gold coins entered.

That is a wealth that is difficult for ordinary people to accumulate in a lifetime. Even low-level mages and adventurers will regard it as a windfall.

But recently, on Gallo's side, it's just daily expenses.

After a while, a few drops of blue liquid squeezed out.

It was not an ordinary liquid, but took on a strange form like mercury slurry.

Gallo carefully collected all these liquids, injected them into the magical quill, and then began to use these writing runes to fill in the European magic words he invented.

Accompanied by a chant like a ballad, the magical incantation caused the mana to resonate, and a faint aura began to appear.

A faint blue flame appeared on the magic paper he was writing on, but soon the flame did not stop. Instead, it quickly lost control and engulfed the entire paper.

Gallo stayed there for a while, until the flames were about to spread to the table and trigger the magic alarm in the room. Then he reached out his hand in frustration and used "Mage's Hand" to put it out.

At this moment, the tower spirit's reminder sounded, and Okesia sent a message.

"Gallo, there is new news over Roland, he has started writing a novel!
The name of the novel is "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"..."

When Gallo heard this, he couldn't help but feel deeply powerless.

"Why, why can Roland do it?
Why is his Seris language so perfect and exquisite? It is simply more perfect than anything developed in natural history! "

In ordinary phonetic writing and alphabetic writing, words have expanded several times over the past few decades. This is actually a congenital defect.

The Seris language has not only adapted to this magical world, but can even quickly integrate into many fields such as arcana, literature, and life.

No matter how you compose words or sentences, they are all efficient and compatible, and you can do it with ease.

This is a language that has stood the test of time and a language that has the potential to grow.

Now, Roland has used it to write novels. In the eyes of professional Rune School mages, he is simply showing off his skills!

This is the upper limit of the show!

As the saying goes, the layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Of course, Gallo was an expert, so he saw the secret behind this.

……

Atrein is the country of mages, and among the mages, the Rune School occupies a pivotal position.

Naturally, there are many experts on the relationship between language, writing and magic.

"This is the second novel in the Seris series written by Roland. Don't be fooled by the Three Kingdoms' struggle for hegemony presented on the surface. What is actually described here is the application process of magic words..."

“All magic words evolve from natural language, and are inseparable from the semantic network built by daily life practice.

What is the Semantic Web?The so-called semantic network is essentially a form of information expression. We can think of things as nodes one after another, connected to each other through directed straight lines, used to express the relationship between nodes.

For example, as we often say, A is B's friend, B is C's student, and C knows A's father...

This kind of thing similar to the interpersonal network also exists in the structure of information and language knowledge! "

"Yes, even the knowledge of all human things is hidden in it.

For example, if we say an Atrehine word, 'Earth-walking dragon', what will everyone think of?
That's right, it's a giant reptile magical creature of the genus Dragon.

Huge, sub-dragon, crawling, magical creatures, etc. are its own inherent biological attributes, and correspondingly, certain small animals are its food.

It can be expressed as Earth-moving dragon => food => small animals. There is also a two-way link, small animals => natural enemies => Earth-moving dragon...

If you connect everything in the world, it will form a huge 'web of meaning'! "

"What Roland wrote is not just a simple novel. He wants to connect the Seris culture and the meaning of magic, so that everyone can naturally connect to everything in the magical world in the process of learning the Seris language.

And similarly, when we cast spells, meditate, and come into contact with all things in the magical world, we will also be incorporated into his huge web of meaning of Siris magic through this mutual connection! "

"This is simply a genius idea, but it has to be said that it is the only path for excellent magic language."

“Only when enough users are accumulated and connected to enough intentions.”

"In the dark, the Mana resonance built by all living beings and soul thoughts can mobilize a large enough source of magic power..."

"This is the ultimate secret of the super-magic language!"

This is the opinion of some experts and scholars from the "Arcane Newsletter". As the most professional and authoritative arcane newspaper in Atrein, it does not evaluate the paper, but the novel written by Roland, which is enough to prove that the high-level mage group treats this object attitude.

The reason for this is very simple. It was written by Roland in Seris language.

"Roland, you don't want to study the path to becoming a god, do you?"

Not only are there hints from the outside world, but Roland's teacher, Archmage Ovisto, has also sent letters.

"Teacher, why are you doing this? I didn't mean it at all!"

Roland was really dumbfounded. For you guys, Di Hua is going too far.

"Well, if it doesn't happen, it doesn't exist, but even if it does exist, it's not something shady. When the road to arcane magic comes to an end, reaching the level above the Archmage is nothing more than becoming a legend and igniting the divine fire.

Maybe you might actually become a new god in the future. "

Ovisto gave very high praise.

"And by that time, your readers will provide you with faith..."

It's better to send me money directly.

Roland complained secretly in his heart.

But the teacher's words also reminded him.

In this extraordinary world, it is indeed possible to spread language and words in this way to resonate and arouse huge repercussions.

Combined with the resonance across the universe that emerged when the divine radiance was displayed before, it is nothing short of a miracle.

There is unparalleled potential here to be tapped.

Those experts and scholars are not all nonsense.

"The Tao Te Ching says, "To the greatest extent, people don't know it; secondly, to be familiar with it and praise it; secondly, to fear it; thirdly, to insult it."

In the past, Chinese characters once reached the point where they were advocated by some intellectuals to be abandoned, which could be considered an 'insult'.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, education has not been booming. Writing is something that only intellectuals can recognize. The common people respect and fear it, and pay homage to it. Various dialects and spoken languages ​​are also complicated and abnormal. Even top experts and scholars cannot read it. be thrown off balance.

Until the universalization of compulsory education and the rise of the Internet, no matter whether they are virtuous or ignorant, high or low, they can use language and writing to speak freely, and even write novels, using language and writing as a tool to communicate ideas.

Then it should be respected and respected.

But even in the information age, it is far from reaching the point where the Supreme Being does not know what is there.

When language and words are integrated into communication tools, and when brain-computer interfaces can replace them, all meanings can be turned into substantive power flowing between the consciousnesses of different individuals, completely eliminating language, culture and ideological realms, and knowledge When there is a big difference, Seris language can be considered as the time when the merits are truly complete and you can withdraw from the stage of history.

By that time, all language and writing will be eliminated, and people will communicate directly with spiritual consciousness itself. "

He thought deeply and further felt his legendary destiny.

However, ideas are ideas, and the current era is still the era of language and writing. The mission of the Rune School is also to explore its application scenarios.

"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" used the name of the novel to interpret "The Romance of Siris" with half truth and half falsehood, which further stimulated the development of the Siris School.

The most direct manifestation is...

Derivative works (fans) have appeared in the literary club in Master Dong Lena's Tower!
Just as "Water Margin", one of the four great classics, led to the birth of "Jin Ping Mei", Roland's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is considered to some extent to reflect the Three Kingdoms struggle for hegemony between the Eastern and Western Lena and the Northern Tribal Alliance.

Someone started writing "Reiner's Records".

Some people also combined the creativity of the previous "Feng Shen Yan Yi" to create "Three Kingdoms of Gods and Demons".

There is even a person with a low personality who took advantage of the triangular relationship between Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu and Diao Chan and wrote a novel called "The Secret History of Diao Chan" or something...

But those people were so shameless that they sent a lot of various manuscripts to Roland's mailbox all day long and asked Roland to read them.

However, Donglina Master Tower adheres to freedom of speech and freedom of the press, and all kinds of expression cannot be suppressed.

What's more, this is indeed a move that will help increase the foundation of the Seris School and cultivate the corpus.

Roland still doesn't know what the specific purpose of accumulating corpus is, but in the era of artificial intelligence, it will definitely be useful.

This world also has alchemy and artificial intelligence technology.

With a series of elements such as automated printing, magic cards, indexing, semantic connections, etc., it will definitely come in handy.

With a stroke of his pen, he approved a hundred thousand gold coins: "Incorporate the Seris Literary Society founded by those apprentices into a full-fledged organization, and merge it under the name of the Common Research Association!
I will personally serve as the president. Rosa, you find some people, and then invite the members of the committee that compiles the Reiner Canon to serve as editors and commentators!

The former members, um, also called on them to study "The Literary Mind and the Carving of Dragons" carefully. "

He had written "The Literary Mind and the Carving of Dragons" before, and his literary creation and critical theory were all ready-made.

What else could Princess Rosa say?
Of course, I continued to be busy.

In fact, by this time, she was so busy with affairs that she could no longer handle the various tasks assigned by Roland on her own.

Fortunately, there may be a shortage of magic talents under Reiner, but there is never a shortage of people to handle chores.

Princess Rosa found several literate maids under her, plus elites recruited from the nobles, to form a powerful team of secretaries to handle the matter.

For this reason, some of the crown princes prepared by the Kingdom of Lena for Prince Siler were even occupied.

Anyway, Silaire is still studying and is temporarily unable to manage politics.

These talents need to be trained, and there is no harm in getting in touch with the senior officials of the Upper Kingdom through serving Roland, and understanding the Atrein culture and the thoughts of the Seris School.

When King Arkham XIV learned about it, he was also happy to see it and strongly supported it.

……

As time goes by, Roland gradually declines, but the plot of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" becomes more and more exciting.

From the Battle of Guandu, three visits to thatched cottage, from Jingxiang Fengyun, to the coalition forces of Sun and Liu, from the verbal battle with Confucian scholars, to the Battle of Chibi.

The key battle that determines Liu Bei's foundation and the situation of the three-pointed world has arrived.

During this period, a series of characters such as Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu, Diao Chan, Liu Guan and Zhang were also enthusiastically pursued by magicians from other worlds.

The Katona family company promptly launched the Siris series of phantom magic cards with Hilt Company.

And Diego's father, Mobron Capel's magic card company, began to try to create corresponding magic cards!

"My daughter, go play Diao Chan. Your father wants to make you a big local star!"

Selling cards requires publicity based on cultural factors. After a series of considerations, Moberon decided to train his daughter well.

"what?"

Lacey didn't expect that she would receive another big advertising order, and was a little confused.

You promised to dance and become a master, but you promised to work hard?
……

At this time, Gallo was reading the Three Kingdoms at Master Silena's Tower in Dogula City, secretly feeling sad.

"When there is beauty, how can there be brightness? When there is beauty, how can there be brightness...

God of fate, since Atrein already has me, Gallo, why do we need to send Roland down? "

He suddenly resonated with Zhou Gongjin.

Because Zhou Yu failed to plot against Zhuge Liang many times, he eventually lost his wife and troops.

Why haven't I been defeated repeatedly in the field of arcana, defeated and fought again and again?

How unjust fate!

Gallo decided to avenge Zhou Gongjin, write something to praise this character, and criticize Zhuge Liang for being exaggerated.

At present, people from all walks of life in Atrein and Reiner undoubtedly have a far better impression of Zhuge Liang than Zhou Yu, and his popularity is obviously much stronger.

Gallo felt so unworthy of him.

But just a few days later, on the day before the New Year, Okesia hurriedly found him and said anxiously: "Gallo, it's bad, something happened!"
