453: Chapter 433: Arriving at the Exotic Realm 453: Chapter 433: Arriving at the Exotic Realm The dawn in Holy City ca early.
As the “Great Lamp” lit up, the entire city was covered in gold, and people began their busy day.
So people pushed carts, walking the streets and alleys, selling snacks and utensils.
So people hurriedly jumped on carriages to go to their respective jobs.
Walking on the streets of Holy City, not only were there a large number of Sapphire Clan people in sight, but also the long-haired, clawed, insect-like foreigners who appeared on the streets and in houses.
As a proud citizen of Holy City, 27-stellar-year-old Madel had just co of age but was no longer surprised like before.
He wouldn’t point at every foreigner as if he saw Magic Monsters outside the city.
Now, he had beco an apprentice Priest of the God of Travel and was fulfilling the glorious duty bestowed upon him by the gods…
Although there were too many divine decrees, even the Church headquarters in Holy City had sent out newcors just joining the church.
“With hard work and dedication, I’ll soon have a place in this city”, young Madel thought, especially since his new job generously provided him with 20 big coins every month.
By his calculation, he only needed to work for half a year to realize his dream of making a down paynt in Holy City.
With this in mind, Madel was instantly motivated.
The job wasn’t difficult, rely providing basic translation and guidance services to so friendly “Chosen Ones”.
“Hello, Mr.
Lu.”, Madel greeted the leader of the “Chosen Ones” with excitent.
Despite his young face, he must be the most experienced person in the team.
After all, only experienced adventurers could learn the Saphire language, which had 47 letters, in just a week.
“Sir, here is the ‘newspaper’ you wanted.
By the way, I checked the trading column in the church when I ca, and the material you wanted is still out of stock.”
“Thank you, young man.
May your god always watch over you.”
Seeing this overly enthusiastic “young man,” Lu Ping’an could only respond with a smile, as his Saphire language skills were still limited.
He took the newspaper and quickly flipped through it.
Compared to a week ago when he first encountered the local language, he could now understand more than half of the content.
Lu Ping’an looked up at the sky, where the magnificent “Great Lamp” illuminated the entire city, bringing light and hope.
Especially when other areas were still in darkness, people here went to work, got off work, drank, and fought just like before, with no trace of the World Apocalypse in sight – except for the occasional Doomsday believers chased by police officers.
Everything seed so peaceful and harmonious, as if it could last forever.
Here was the capital of the Salos Theocracy, and one of the ten most prosperous royal cities in the world.
“Oh, Little Madel, you’re here.
How about we talk about the history of this city today?” Guan Xinxian, the second on the team to master the local language, also took the initiative to greet the guide.
Out of the more than ten people in the team, only Lu Ping’an and Guan Xinxian had a basic command of the local language, which was already better than most newly arriving teams.
Most teams relied on the guides sent by the God of Travel, locals who spoke so broken Eastern Country language to communicate with people here.
Of course, more experienced teams might have found a way to solve their language problems before coming here.
The reason Lu Ping’an and Guan Xinxian could learn so quickly was not because of their extraordinary talent, but simply because both of them had a Scholar profession, and not a low one.
“Language Knowing…
Here, Little Madel, according to this history book, is the Nine-Day War also part of your noble history?”
Language Knowing, a Black Iron Curse, didn’t require a high learning requirent.
All it needed was a first-tier Scholar profession and sufficient “reading” ability.
Now, Guan added a BUFF to himself, greatly enhancing his language learning progress.
As for Lu Ping’an, it was even simpler.
“Language Recognition…
Let see what happened today.” Also giving himself a BUFF, Lu Ping’an carefully read through the newspaper, which was unintelligible to most.
Learning a language was not a problem for so professionals.
The first-tier Scholar’s “Language Knowing” greatly enhanced language learning ability, while a second-tier Scholar’s “Language Recognition” allowed a rapid “imitation” based on fragnts of speech, books, and other people’s spoken language, making it as if they were natives.
At present, Guan Xinxian, who tried even harder, was still focusing on spoken language and common phrases, while Lu Ping’an could already independently go shopping on the street and browse various newspapers and magazines.
The auxiliary ability of Scholars proved to be quite effective at this ti.
If it weren’t for the lack of corresponding language materials in their own world, Lu Ping’an’s speed of learning a language could be even faster.
Here, the starting point for Eastern Country explorers in this world was also their seventh day of arrival.
Most teams had already begun their exploration with their guides, while Lu Ping’an and the rest, using their initial funds, rented a house and settled in.
“Sharpening the axe will not interfere with cutting wood.
Our previous intelligence sources were no match for those experienced teams and high-level professionals.
We need to gather new intelligence and familiarize ourselves with the environnt before determining our next goal.”
Lu Ping’an wasn’t not impatient; he just didn’t want to be like other blind flies, searching aimlessly for supposed opportunities.
Holy City wasn’t really suitable for young explorers, not because there were few opportunities, but because there were too many for them to grasp.
In just one week, Lu Ping’an had observed over a dozen nightti encounters between high-level professionals, most of whom he could not resist.
According to the arrangent of the God of Travelers, young explorers like them should explore more remote areas.
However, before leaving, Lu Ping’an felt his team needed more “localization” and more intelligence support.
At the mont, in the living room of their temporary residence, most of the team mbers were frowning while reading, as they had also been asked to learn the local language so they could at least engage in simple conversations, knowing whether the other party was threatening or expressing friendliness.
The guides were supposed to accompany them throughout the trip, but relying entirely on the guides…
Lu Ping’an wasn’t that naive.
Among the local decorations, clothing, and art in the room, even though humans and Saphire people had obvious differences, at least dressing less conspicuously made them look like foreigners who had lived here for a long ti.
Besides adapting to the local environnt and gathering intelligence, Lu Ping’an’s team spent most of their ti deciphering the unique power system of the local area – the so-called Sealing Skill.
At the very least, they needed to understand the opponent’s combat system and response thods.
All Runners, Tars, Awakeners, and other “Constant Motion System” professionals in the team joined the analysis.
With so many of them, Runners were one of the most common side professions among combatants.
Unsurprisingly, making the most progress was Lu Ping’an, who could “copy experience”…
He excitedly discovered that his “investnt” was equally effective on foreigners, and with the local language and Abnormal Ability double harvest, he was the first to reach the critical point.
“…Almost done, let’s give it a try.”
