Arcane Linguist

Chapter 387 Roland’s Plot

"Since you all insist, I have no choice but to do whatever you want. However, we are all allies of the same camp, so let's stop there."

Moxiu Andrew didn't look good.

But seeing that the situation had developed to this point, he did not stop it and instead acted as a referee.

He winked at the person next to him.

Everyone understood and stared at the two of them attentively.

The barbarian leader and Tatali were separated and facing each other. The evening wind blew, and the magic light at the gate of the camp did not move at all, but the sand and dust were like smoke, still rippling like waves.

Some people thought they couldn't see clearly enough, so they secretly cast spells and threw a few more light spells on the rock wall in front, lighting up the surroundings as bright as day.

"drink!"

The barbarian leader gave a soft drink and used the power of the war pattern in full view of everyone.

Roland's eyes lit up.

Sure enough, just like the rumors, the tattoos on his body began to swell with blood, as if they came to life, showing various patterns of runes and totems.

They seemed to change from black and white to color all at once, extremely conspicuous.

As the top arcanist of the Rune School, Roland quickly recognized that it contained the basic prototypes of many spell models.

"Strength, speed and agility...these patterns such as bear paws, cat claws, and eagle eyes actually contain effects similar to the power of the bear, the elegance of the cat, and other spells!

And those more complex or abstract patterns also represent the functions of other spell models. "

In ancient times, before the invention of writing, primitive humans were already using branches or stones to carve pictures on mountain walls.

According to the pictographic principle of magical construction, the intention they refer to is the same as that of words.

For example, a few simple wavy lines usually represent water or rivers.

For another example, a circle with lines around it represents the sun.

The curved tooth-like thing represents the moon.

As long as any intelligent creature has seen the same thing before, they can make similar associations and understand what the painter is referring to.

Totems can carry richer information, and naturally possess greater magic meaning and more complex ingredients.

The tattoo pattern is a totem level pattern.

Bear paws represent beasts and strength, cat paws represent sharpness or agility, and eagle eyes represent insight...

This is also in line with the development of writing.

"Strictly speaking, this is a development route that is similar to that of language and writing. Many arcane analysis methods of the Rune School can also be used to classify and summarize.

Um? Even the fluctuations of magic power are so similar?

It can be regarded as the effect of blessing those magics on the body! "

Sometimes Roland suddenly understood, sometimes he frowned and thought, and fell into confusion.

It was impossible to figure out all the key points within a short period of observation, so he looked at the barbarian leader and other Sladelta warriors with even more earnest eyes.

With the blessing of various magical effects, a layer of bloody red light emerged from the barbarian leader's body. A force similar to fighting spirit, but different from fighting spirit, spread throughout his body.

Even his hair turned into a flame-like color.

"Heh, still a Super Sladelta Warrior?"

Roland was even more happy when he saw this scene.

These are all real combat capabilities!

Moxiu Andrew seemed to notice something and glanced at Roland with a strange expression.

What is this person happy about?

But compared to Roland, others still paid more attention to Tata Li.

Because when the barbarian leader showed off his tattoo power, he used the magic card in his hand.

As the phantom of the headless war god Xingtian emerged, a figure condensed with huge fighting energy appeared behind him, and his momentum was not weaker than that of the opponent.

God of War Xingtian!

Tatali was originally a high-level warrior, a new generation of strong men trained by the Mata tribe. He traveled abroad for "pilgrimage" reasons and accepted the employment of Mage Tower.

Roland used the true biography of "Xingtian's Fighting Will" that he had as bait to guide Tatali closer to the Seris School.

Therefore, he can also use the legendary card that condenses a lot of faith.

In addition, there are two equipment cards condensed by diversion divine power.

In the astonished eyes of everyone, the bronze ax and huge shield each turned into reality, and Tata Li's left and right hands appeared in the form of soul-like weapons.

"These two pieces of magic equipment... seem unusual!"

Even Moxiu Andrew, who had secretly observed Roland before, couldn't help turning his head with a surprised expression.

"Roar!"

Tatali rushed forward and struck with his axe.

boom!

The barbarian leader dodged at a very fast speed and immediately picked up the broadsword he carried with him to fight back.

when!

The powerful pseudo-artifact shield blocks it easily.

After a while, the barbarian leader fell into a disadvantage, and the expression on his face became visibly anxious.

He suddenly discovered that the other party's power was unusual.

That seems to be a powerful blessing of totem attributes, making Tata Li stronger than himself, faster than himself, and more responsive than himself.

After just a few rounds of fighting, he felt tremendous pressure.

"How is it possible? He is obviously only at the seventh level... No, those powers have enhanced him, at least to the ninth level!"

The strength displayed by Tatali at this moment is not inferior to that of a normal ninth-level combat professional!

The barbarian leader roared angrily and tried his best.

But unexpectedly, Tatali suddenly seized the opportunity and jumped up.

While the barbarian leader was greatly shocked, he jumped and slashed with a condescending attitude.

"Yeah...ha!"

The barbarian leader had retreated as much as possible.

However, there was a layer of blazing fighting spirit like a flame wrapped between the blades of the axe. It was like fighting spirit that was slashed out and turned into an ax shadow about ten feet in size, falling down from the air.

The barbarian leader's mind went blank.

If he knew the Seris language, he would probably have to say "I'm going to die" at this moment.

At this moment, Roland took action.

He had already pinched out the Seris runes that contained the true meaning of the law, and used the super-magic method of "writing to convey the Tao" to display it.

A word "shield" appeared above the head of the barbarian leader.

The large golden characters contain the most fundamental runic power between heaven and earth, constructing a hemispherical advanced shield.

The sharp edge of the ax struck it, like an explosion of light, raising up a few feet of dust in the surrounding area.

These two forces spread all the way outward, and when the smoke and dust dissipated, what appeared in front of everyone were two huge chasms with a horoscope shape.

The barbarian leader's eyes widened, and he froze in place with the fear of the rest of his life.

He was sweating profusely, dumbfounded, and seemed dumbfounded.

The other Sladeltans also looked shocked.

"it is good!"

Moxiu Andrew was silent for a moment and took the lead in applauding. Others reacted and followed suit.

"The victory has been decided, Balluff, what do you say?"

Mo Xiu looked at the barbarian leader.

It turns out that his name is Balluff.

"I lost!"

Baluf came back to his senses and couldn't help but feel dejected.

He felt guilty for his behavior just now.

Not only did he lose the battle, he was also shocked by the aura of the God of War Xingtian at the last moment and fell into a sluggish state.

This kind of cowardly behavior is despised by the barbarian warriors.

But at the same time, he looked at the virtual image of the headless God of War wrapped around the opponent's body, and felt a bit of awe.

"Can you tell me what kind of power that is?"

"This is a gift from my lord, the headless war god Xingtian!"

Tatari lifted up his clothes, revealing two eye-pupil-shaped tattoos on his chest.

And the mouth on the belly button.

Under the influence of Serad and others, a large number of tribal warriors tattooed totems on their chests as a symbol of strength and courage.

Just like the Sladelta warriors, this requires qualifications and is not something that just anyone can enjoy.

In his previous life, Blue Star also had designs such as the Shoulder Dragon, Guan Gong, etc. It is not something that ordinary people can control. He does not have a certain status in the world, and his status and strength are really difficult to handle.

In other words, Tatali, who can tattoo the complete Xingtian totem, is recognized as the number one thug and warrior of the Mata tribe.

It's a pity that just like Atrein lacks magical creatures such as griffins and Pegasus, each major plane and world has its own specialties and development directions.

Although the Saris language is based on pictograms and is theoretically compatible with this system, it has always been difficult to build a meal without rice and does not have good conditions to develop this branch of arcana.

"That must be some great god..."

Baluf muttered to himself.

Divine power is like prison.

Only a god-level power could make him lose his temper like this!

If you want to say this, I won’t be sleepy.

Tatali said: "My Lord Xingtian has unparalleled might and virtue!"

Roland also said with a smile: "The headless war god Xingtian is one of the ancient war gods enshrined by our Seris School. He has the ability to protect combat professionals in the war field.

If you have any respect for Him, here is the "Romance of Seris" translated from Ben Sinvira, which contains a record of it. "

In the world of magic, issues of gods and beliefs are serious issues, so Roland's seemingly unintentional propaganda is normal in the eyes of Mo Xiu and others.

However, after everyone dispersed and Moxiu Andrew returned to the camp, he suddenly had an afterthought.

"Then Roland, are you trying to take the opportunity to preach?"

"Marshal, I seem to have heard of the Mata tribe. In recent years, it has slowly developed by worshiping an unknown god.

They are barbarians, and the Sladelta clan is also barbarians. Maybe they can actually exchange totems and beliefs. "

A close subordinate who followed in happened to have experienced the defense of Lena's army, and also knew something about the small number of Mata tribe warriors among them.

In recent years, Serad and others have really been unable to do anything against Roland.

What else? If you can't beat it, just join.

Roland had been spared by Serad and had done transactions before, thus establishing his credibility.

The new generation of tribal warriors are no longer hostile to Dong Lena...

Well, mainly because I really can't beat it.

Facing a kingdom that has grown stronger, they can only change from being good at conquering and fighting to being good at singing and dancing, and from entering the border with invaders to going south to work.

It was against this background that Tatari came to East Lena Mage Tower and joined the Seris School.

"Their" sacred object is still in Roland's hands.

Roland "generously" promised the right to use the "artifact", and the Mata tribe warriors recognized by him will be able to hold the "artifact" and fight for him.

This is regarded as the highest honor in life by the warriors of the Mata tribe.

……

The next day, Moxiu Andrew heard a report from his subordinates: "Lord Roland left the camp and seemed to be preparing to go to the base of Balluff and others...

He also sent people overnight to collect a batch of fine wine and bought out all the merchants' stocks in the camp. "

"It's exactly what I expected."

Mo Xiu shook his head and decided not to care.

"Warriors of Sladelta, I, Roland, have come to visit you.

We didn't know each other last night. I wonder if we can make friends? "

In the Sladelta tribe's camp, Roland only brought a few followers to follow, but he used space magic to bring a large amount of wine, which was piled at the entrance of the opponent's camp without any explanation.

Baluf frowned when he saw it.

But when he saw that the opponent's warrior Tatari who defeated him yesterday was following behind him, and he understood that he was a well-known strong man in the world of Atrein, he was somewhat flattered.

He was still distressed that his prestige in the tribe had plummeted after his failure. When he saw this, he came up with a plan, smiled and welcomed them in.

"We, the Sladelta tribe, have always admired the truly strong, so we naturally welcome them."

"Well, we in Siris have an old saying that when friends come, there is good wine. This time, treat it as my treat. Everyone can drink as much as you like. You're welcome."

It is said that you should not hit the smiling man with your hand. When the other tribal warriors saw this, they also stepped forward to bring the wine and started drinking with the group of warriors brought by Roland.

When Roland came this time, he carefully selected his entourage.

All spellcasting professions and civilian personnel are not included, only the warriors of the Mata tribe and combat professionals among adventurers, especially those melee warriors who are good at strength attributes.

Most of these people are burly, wild-tempered, and very good at drinking, which is very popular with the people of Sladelta.

If it were replaced by those gentle mages, even though their status in the civilized world is much higher than these people, they might still be disliked.

Everyone sang, danced, drank and had fun, and talked about their glorious deeds of killing people on various battlefields. It was considered that they had a basic understanding of each other.

Even Baluf, who had some small calculations before, couldn't help but have a good impression of Tatari and others.

In the next few days, Roland did not go there again, but allowed Tatali and others to eat meat, drink, and compete with him every day.

These tough men have nothing to do after they have been eating all day long, and it is not convenient to find women in the military camp. It is probably a similar entertainment activity, and it also serves as training.

Those people sent by Roland had been warned in advance and knew how to do what they wanted, and quickly brought back good news.

"Sir Roland, according to your instructions, we made a bet to exchange war marks with Siris style martial arts, and we exchanged it several times.

Now I have gathered the basic patterns you specified, and I have also given them the introductory techniques of elemental energy..."

"it is good!"

Roland said with satisfaction.

　A reader's comment may have been swallowed in the previous chapter, but it was not deleted, but the content of the chapter was modified, and the paragraph structure was changed, similar to an empty object reference.

　　Sometimes it happens like this. I think this program code is not well written. If the paragraph comment has no parent node, it can just fall to the last paragraph or title. Why disappear directly? This judgment logic is really wrong. good.
