Old days in the box

Chapter 8 Praise for the Great Son of the Old One

"Another giant paper miracle has arrived!" the fishermen in the village exclaimed.

Freya and all the villagers were frightened, but they immediately ran out of the village to check the huge piece of paper that fell on the beach on the coast.

"There are words on it, it's a sign from the gods!" a sharp-eyed fisherman shouted as he ran.

This text document is the same as the one enshrined in the village. It is also seven meters long and five meters wide, but the difference is that this one is covered with text.

Zhou Xiao wrote on it that he came from the outside world, warned them to pay attention to the dangers around them, and asked them several questions about that world in succession. It was full of content.

"Yes, this is your divine message, respond to me!" Zhou Xiao was smug off the screen, satisfied with his genius method.

In the window, the fishermen from Haiding Village quickly gathered around the giant piece of paper, all looking at the words written on it.

"But... we can't read!" the sharp-eyed fisherman continued.

"?" Zhou Xiao.

It's over, I forgot that they are just a group of fishermen who live by the sea!

At this time, the fishermen had all seen the complicated text on the huge paper, but they all looked at a loss, and it was obvious that no one could understand it.

Sea people like them have been fishing in shallow seas for generations. From birth to death, they will never leave the scope of this coast. Not to mention how to read, even if you ask them to name how many continents there are in the world, they will not know.

The most knowledgeable person in Haiding Village is Old Rand, but he only went to sea to visit the witch doctor and asked for advice on how to sacrifice to the sea god.

For a group of them, it would be impossible to understand Zhou Xiao's lengthy essay.

"Father, aren't these... just rune characters?" Freya said after carefully studying the words written on the giant paper.

"Indeed." Old Rand nodded. He also recognized the runic letters on the paper.

Looking down from the window, Zhou Xiao could also see clearly.

On the text document that was thrown in, what appeared was not the Chinese characters he entered, but instead it was filled with strange text symbols!
"Could it be that not only the style of painting, but also the text will also be transformed?" Zhou Xiao suddenly understood.

Judging from Peashooter's experiments, although all files on the computer can be dragged into the window, these things will all be automatically fine-tuned to adapt to the operating logic of the world inside.

Now it seems that the same is true for text. When entering, it will automatically be converted into the text of that world.

Zhou Xiao listened thoughtfully to the conversation between Freya and his daughter through the window.

Rune writing is a type of Nordic writing that has become extinct in the real world. Legend has it that the great god Odin understood the mysterious symbol by hanging himself upside down.

In many games, this kind of text is set as a powerful magical rune. Zhou Xiao works in a game company, so naturally he knows a little bit about these.

"In this way, this world is the world of Norse mythology, or at least it is based on Norse mythology."

Zhou Xiao also didn't expect that the words he typed would turn into mysterious runes, which was quite impressive.

But it's useless no matter how high the level is, if you don't understand it, it's just a fool's errand.

"Rune characters are not ordinary characters. They are mysterious runes that only witch doctors and priests can understand. They record the secrets of magic." Old Rand said seriously.

"Hurry up and try to interpret the meaning of the Lord God." Other fishermen were eagerly looking forward to it.

If it were ordinary text, no one in Haiding Village would be able to understand it.

But if it's rune text, that's not the case.

Old Rand once went to sea to visit the witch doctor and asked for advice on the ritual of sacrificing the sea god. This ritual was performed in rune script.

After he came back, he taught the ritual to Freya and was responsible for presiding over the sacrifices in the village, so in theory, the two fathers and daughters could read rune writing to a certain extent.Freya and Old Rand lay on this huge piece of paper and read it for a long time, and finally managed to piece together a sentence from this large pile of words.

"The Lord God seems to be saying that He is not a god from this world, but from the distant yesterday." Freya explained with difficulty.

"That's right, from yesterday... This means that He was born earlier than today's gods, and is a son of the past who existed from the beginning of creation!" Old Rand also came to the same conclusion, and also interpreted his over-interpretation Brought it.

"Praise be to the great Sons of the Old One!"

"Praise be to the great Sons of the Old One!"

"Praise be to the great Sons of the Old One!"

The surrounding fishermen knelt down in prayer and chanted the name of the god.

But apart from this sentence, Freya and his daughter could not interpret anything else.

With their level of rune writing, Zhou Xiao filled the entire page with so much content that it was almost like a heavenly book.

Son of the Past - This should be Zhou Xiao's name in the future.

However, Zhou Xiao has no requirements for the name. He cares more about the information.

"I wrote such a long paragraph, and in the end you all came up with one sentence." Zhou Xiao looked at the screen helplessly.

At this moment, he suddenly understood why the gods who appeared in games and movies always acted as riddle men when they gave revelations to humans, giving them only a few words for them to guess.

What’s the point of writing this revelation in such a long way if you don’t even understand the language!

In this case, the other party is a refugee who cannot read a word, so the information should be as concise as possible. It is best if there is only a picture so that they can guess it at a glance.

The Riddler really did not deceive me!
At this time, inside the window, a group of fishermen followed the orders of Freya and her daughter and had already started dragging the giant paper filled with divine revelations back to the village.

The giant paper was carried back to Freya's house by seven or eight fishermen, and was handed over to their father and daughter to continue their detailed interpretation.

It turns out that this is also a miracle of the Son of the Past. Logically speaking, it should be hung high in front of the altar and worshiped as a sacred object like the previous giant piece of paper.

But now Freya is already the chosen one favored by the Sons of the Past in the eyes of the fishermen, equivalent to a bishop or a priest, so they will naturally follow Freya's arrangements.

In a world like the Atrium, the relationship between man and nature is particularly important, and the person in the middle who is responsible for interpreting God's will naturally has an extraordinary status.

After carrying back the huge paper filled with runes, the fishermen also began to tidy up the village and repaired the places destroyed by the soldiers one by one.

Those who sacrificed themselves followed the tradition of the sea people and threw their bodies into the sea and became part of the sea.

As for the remaining fishermen, many of them were injured. They were all bandaged up and would not go to the sea for the time being.

After driving away the inland soldiers this time, they saved a lot of seafood, which was enough for the village's rations.

Zhou Xiao took advantage of this opportunity and narrowed the angle of view to carefully count the exact number of people in Haiding Village at this time in the air.

There are currently 35 people in the entire village, including 15 women and 20 men, ranging in age.

These 35 villains are Zhou Xiao's most precious resources at present.

He has to rely on this group of villains to broaden his horizons for him, and at the same time spread his name to further continents, attracting more people to expand his team.

But this is all a story for another day. At this stage, it is already good that he can make these villains understand his revelation.
