The breeze brought a faint floral fragrance.
Suziyu strolled along a winding path. There were reclaimed farmlands on both sides of the road. On the right side were various kinds of mushrooms. The tallest ones were more than 20 centimeters tall and were grayish brown in color. They were different from what they used to eat. It looked a bit like the king oyster mushrooms that I had seen. On the left were fields of golden sunflowers. Each one looked quite strong, and they all grew to over one meter tall. They were varieties he didn't recognize at all.
There are low fruit trees on both sides of the road, the tallest of which is only two or three meters tall. They are full of red and unknown fruits, which Su Ziyu can pick easily.
"Huh?"
"Look over there! There's a stranger there!"
"Oh my god! He's so tall!"
The first dwarf who discovered Su Ziyu let out an exclamation, and then saw more than a dozen dwarfs surrounding him. They were only about 1.1 to 1.2 meters tall, and their skin color was slightly light gray. The outline of the face looks slightly older, and the most eye-catching thing is a big, slightly red nose, which looks very funny. They all wear strange triangular hats with a furry ball on the top of the hat.
"Hello. Are you a wandering knight?" A dwarf who looked younger in age bravely asked.
He looked at the anti-material sniper rifle behind Su Ziyu and thought it was a special long gun.
The language of these dwarfs is very special. They speak very fast and a bit jabbering. Su Ziyu would not be able to understand them at all if it were not for the systematic auxiliary translation.
However, it seems that they are not aggressive and are relatively kind and intelligent creatures.
Su Ziyu quietly put down his palm from the handle of the knife, then looked at the dwarfs in front of him and nodded, but did not speak, and he could not speak the language of these dwarves.
"Why doesn't he speak?"
"Can't he talk?"
"Is he mute? Oh my God! He's so tall!" The dwarfs around him chirped for a while. They seemed to be a group of very curious people, and many of them came closer to look at the fish up and down.
Then, there was another chirping sound.
"He looks so strange!"
"His clothes are so ugly! He's not even wearing a hat!"
"His shoes are so beautiful."
"What is he carrying? Such a big package! Is there anything delicious in it?"
"Are you a human from the chessboard country? Why are you different from what I have seen before!"
"Are you a knight?"
"Why no armor? Are you just a soldier? How did you get through the Black Forest?"
"I'm Peak."
"The bravest big goblin here, I have met your human White Queen, she is so beautiful."
There was a burst of chattering words.
A dwarf who looked obviously different came to Su Ziyu. He was wearing a simple leather armor, a somewhat funny leather hat, and a short sword about thirty centimeters long on his waist. He boldly walked up to Su Ziyu and asked, "Human? Can't you speak? Are you really a mute?"
Shhhhhhh.
The dwarfs around him suddenly became quiet, and then started whispering again.
"Look, look!"
"It's the deviant Peake. He's talking to the stranger."
"He must be bragging again."
"whee."
"Pike likes to brag! Liar! Big liar!"
It's so noisy.
Are these little ones big goblins? Why do you talk so much! It was so noisy that it made my head hurt!
"It seems that he is mute." The big goblin who was called the 'deviant' Peak did not care about the ridicule of others, but turned his head and said seriously: "I have really been to the chessboard country. There are many like him there. Tall man."
"And the beautiful White Queen! Oh my God! She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen!"
No more.
It is too troublesome to have no way to communicate verbally.
Su Ziyu gritted his teeth and spent his source power to light up the ability of 'Language Understanding'. With the large amount of information transmitted by the data stream, he soon became familiar with and gradually mastered the language of these big fairies. Their pronunciation has a lot of curling sounds, and they speak very fast and a bit noisily, but basically they only need to say Su Ziyu once and they can memorize it and learn everything about it.
Very amazing ability.
Although there is no way to improve his combat effectiveness.
According to the current mastery progress, it will take Su Ziyu a day or two at most to fully master their language and communicate fluently without any obstacles.
"This man seems to be mute."
"Take him to see the elders." A big goblin with a beard shouted.
A group of big fairies surrounded Su Ziyu and moved forward.
Their curiosity is very strong, even a little ADHD. Some of the younger ones and the bolder ones even want to touch his anti-equipment sniper rifle, or stare at his backpack curiously.
Su Ziyu is a little annoyed.
He thought for a while, took out some compressed biscuits and chocolate bars from his backpack, and distributed them to the big goblins around him.
"What's this?"
"Black stick! So sweet! So delicious!"
"Is this a cookie?"
"It's different from ours! It smells so good!"
After receiving Su Ziyu's food, these big goblins became a little calmer. At least no one tried to touch his anti-material sniper rifle. Instead, they stared at his backpack, expecting him to take it. More delicious food comes out.
soon.
A small village appeared in front of me.
Outside is a low fence, and the road is paved with neat cobblestones. More big goblins ran over, looking at Su Ziyu curiously, and they whispered as if they were in a vegetable market. What they said was basically the same. They are all repeated, and the most common thing is to marvel at how tall he is.
These little ones are like chatty humanoid repeaters!
The elder of the village is an old goblin with a white beard and a wrinkled face. He wears a rather gorgeous floor-length robe and holds a cane in his hand. However, he smiles quite kindly. He looks towards The person next to him gave a few instructions and then guided Su Ziyu to a big house.
soon.
Many big goblins came in carrying a variety of food, including grilled fish, vegetables, biscuits, bread, mushroom stew, etc. They also brought a barrel of fragrant mead. A group of younger people The big goblins gathered around Su Ziyu and watched eagerly. They had heard other people boasting that the adult had brought out a delicious stick and very crispy biscuits.
The big goblin named Peak sat down next to Su Ziyu unceremoniously. He seemed to want to touch his black short blade with his hands, but he had no interest in the anti-material sniper rifle.
