Before today, Fen couldn't imagine what practical use that boring branch project named 'Freud' could play in someone's database. But today, she saw someone using pictures to happily chat with an elemental creature that was recognized as having no intelligence. The unreality made her wonder, was this someone pretending?
In fact, this is only due to Lich's lack of professionalism.
No matter what kind of intelligent life they are, whether they belong to advanced or backward ethnic groups, and no matter whether they can communicate with each other through language, there are still some things they have in common, and that is vision and sound.
Vision includes colors and pictures, while sound includes elements such as music and rhythm. Rapid drum beats, chaotic and dark whirlpools, these images have similar, if not the same, meanings to most living things.
The process of communicating with the Snake King Odessa was actually not that smooth. At least using pictures to communicate this kind of thing is Lin's first time to put it on the shelves. But after playing for a few rounds, without talking about too advanced psychological theories, someone felt that this was really like the various emoticons, stickers and other stuff he used before traveling through time. Just exclude some homophones or memes.
With such mental preparation and a few more rounds of communication, one person and one snake are quite familiar with each other, and the speed of exchanging pictures is getting faster and faster, and the level of complexity is getting higher and higher. This refreshed someone's understanding.
At first, Lin's imagination was that the Snake King only had the wisdom of an uncivilized beast. Later, I discovered that what the other party possessed might be collective will, which had nothing to do with being stupid at all. It might be as smart as a toddler of several years old.
But after the actual contact, I found that the other person was not as smart as someone imagined for a few-year-old child. This was also caused by someone's misunderstanding of 'collective will'. In other words, I didn’t think about how deep I wanted to know before today.
To describe it in a more vivid way, it is like a group of big men gathering together to discuss things. Things must always be discussed and come to a conclusion before the next step can be taken. However, everyone may not concentrate on discussing things, and it is easy to be attracted and distracted by other things that interest them.
In more terrestrial terms, this is called lack of concentration. However, the reason behind this lack of concentration is the result of multiple personality consciousnesses competing with each other. And how much is this 'multiple'? Thousands of those...
Therefore, when a piece of new information is obtained, in order to process or understand the information, it will cause an overall 'crash', which is a normal daily routine for the Snake King. In this case, it is impossible to process information that is too complex. Language belongs to the category of 'complex' information.
Therefore, if you want to communicate normally with the Snake King, you must use an extremely simple method that can be understood quickly even by a pig. This sentence is not a metaphor, but something that can actually be achieved.
But in this case, the person involved is just having fun. As a bystander, Fen was confused from beginning to end. And during her observation, she realized that someone was actually chatting with this snake king who was worse than a beast, and she suddenly felt like she had lived like a dog for most of her life.
Suddenly, the snake's body, which only occasionally shook slightly, took a rather violent turn. This sudden change almost made Fen lose his footing. Although she regained her balance in an instant, Lin had already flashed to the direction where she fell, waiting to catch the Lich who was about to fall. In the end, Lin made the mistake, and Fen quickly and skillfully stabilized himself. Asked: "What's going on?"
Someone who picked up the empty hand squeezed the hand that didn't hold anything. His expression of pity flashed away, and then he said in a normal tone: "Nothing. He just told Odessa that we were going to the Gemstone Pit, and he decided to deliver it in person." We are just passing by. The big shaking just now is probably the effect of his big turn."
"Send us there!" Fen was surprised by the answer. The man in front of him had only been 'conversing' with this huge elemental creature for a long time. It had not even been an afternoon yet, and Snake King Odessa was about to personally send his group to their destination this time. Fen couldn't help but asked curiously: "What did you talk about all afternoon?"
"Well, actually we didn't talk about much. The main reason is that the way of communication is quite primitive, and I'm not very familiar with this method. Just to put forward an idea, I have to repeatedly confirm whether what the other party knows is consistent with my own. What needs to be conveyed is the same. And there is no way to give a too complicated explanation. I can only keep trying to express it from multiple angles so that the other party can understand it. To say what was conveyed throughout the afternoon, in fact, There are two most important points: we are not hostile, and the other is that we are going to the Gemstone Pit."
"That's it! All afternoon?" Fen said in surprise.
"Of course, he asked a lot about Laila Laza, and it was very troublesome to answer him. That's why it took so long."
Fen asked curiously: "What are the things about Lali Laza? What are they?"
"It's something related to us." After thinking about it, Lin added: "Actually, Odessa gave me the feeling that he has been lonely for too long. So as long as he meets someone who can communicate, he can't wait to pull him. He can talk about everything. And he is also very curious about the outside world. Although he has traveled to many places and encountered many things over the years, those experiences can be said to be monotonous compared to what we have encountered. A lot. So he is like a sponge, eagerly absorbing all the knowledge he can absorb."
Not only was he quite surprised by someone's inference, but even the Lich who was listening felt the same way.
Who would have thought that an elemental creature whose intelligence is considered to be at the best level of a beast actually has a desire for knowledge. The only difference is that no one has a way to communicate with him.
Not to mention the subsequent benefits that this matter can bring to the two of them, just by going to the Gemstone Pit, there is no need to continue to worry about it. This is an easy benefit. No one in their right mind would refuse.
Just as Fen was thinking about the pros and cons, she caught a glimpse of someone squirming out of the corner of her eye. I want to speak, but I don’t dare to, so I just wait for others to take the initiative to ask questions. Helpless, Fen asked: "What's wrong?"
"Well, I want to teach him the language. In this way, it will be easier to communicate in the future."
"Very good, come on, I'll support you." Apart from a few dry words, the Lich didn't intend to pay more.
"Well, um, I think this matter must be done by you. Only you can do it."
Dodging the tall hat that was thrown at her, Fen said with disdain: "You have found the wrong person to teach a little baby how to speak. Go home and grab any of those two girls. They will all perform better than me." Bar."
"What if I said, what I want to teach him is machine language." Lin threw out a shocking bomb.
