Chapter 275: The Notebook
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
This notebook hadn’t been taken out for a long time, and it was covered with a thick layer of dust. When the notebook was pulled out, Divine Nine sneezed.
Divine Nine’s snow-white fur was stained with a layer of dust.
Divine Nine glared at Lauren. Then, he walked to the side and gently shook his fur.
Lauren wasn’t in the mood to mess around with him. She opened the thick notebook.
Lauren accidentally picked up the notebook when she was on a mission.
At that time, her mission was to track down a demon bear that had been cultivating in the mountain forests for many years. The demon bear was big, but it wasn’t agile. Lauren easily killed it.
On the way back, she picked up this notebook.
Somebody collected all kinds of folk languages and recorded them in the notebook. However, Lauren had never used it. She sealed the notebook up and put it on the top.
Now, it was finally useful.
Lauren flipped to a random page.
What were these twisting words? Why did it take a whole line of words to express the meaning of two words in Lauren’s language?
Lauren flipped to another page.
This time, the words weren’t twisting anymore. They were made up of squares and triangles.
From the title page of the notebook, Lauren could tell that the guy who wrote it was an explorer and linguist. He traveled around the world and wanted to collect as many languages as possible.
He wrote his notes by hand. For some parts, Lauren had to read them carefully before she could understand them.
The guy also gave the corresponding translation under each language. Even so, there were still many of the words that Lauren couldn’t understand.
The gap between languages was huge.
Before introducing each language, the guy gave a rough introduction of the nationality of people who spoke the language, their population, the location, and so on.
Lauren spent two hours finishing one-third of the notebook.
She saw a few languages that were relatively similar to the one on the talisman, but she found there were still some differences after carefully studying them.
Lauren was very sleepy, so she decided to continue reading the next day. It was a weekend anyway, and she didn’t have to visit Ruby.
Lauren had already gotten the phone number of Ruby’s social worker this afternoon. Ruby could contact Lauren through the social worker.
The thought of having a friend to live with her made Lauren very excited.
No!
It occurred to Lauren that she had to save time to play with Ruby, so she wouldn’t have time to complete missions.
At the thought of this, Lauren perked up and continued to read the thick notebook.
Fortunately, her hard work paid off. After a long time, Lauren finally matched the words on the talisman with the language of a tribe.
This language was the last one recorded in the notebook.
However, there was very little information about this tribe. Only the name of the tribe was mentioned.
The name of this tribe could be translated to “reign”.
More than 10 years ago, the population of this tribe was less than 100 people.
The guy only wrote four words for the introduction of the tribe. People in this tribe were good at witchcraft.
The strangest thing was that the guy stopped writing after he finished introducing this tribe.
There were still many blank pages on the thick notebook.
Could it be that the guy had already collected all the languages?
Or was it because the notebook was lost?
However, it was too vague to say people in this tribe were good at witchcraft.
Lauren jotted down the name of this tribe and searched through other books.
Finally, she found some information in another ancient book.
There was a rumor that people in this tribe lived in a valley.
Only people in the valley could find the way to enter and exit the valley. Without outsiders, the population in the valley was getting smaller.
There were even cases of inbreeding.
Inbreeding could cause children to be born with disabilities. Therefore, people in this tribe began to study witchcraft, hoping it could help them manipulate humans.
The book also introduced a few commonly used witchcrafts.. One of them was the red and white talisman about the size of a thumb that Lauren discovered.
