According to Rhodes' understanding, although An looks similar to a humanoid creature in appearance, he uses another language that is fundamentally different.
To understand the words of that half-dragon man, the difficulty is the same as understanding the words of a real dragon. Converting it into a special skill requires at least an expert level of linguistics.
This point is also impossible. Humanoid creatures need more advanced linguistics if they want to understand the languages spoken by non-human creatures.
The existence of expert-level linguistics can only allow Rhodes to understand the simple meaning of Ankou's dragon language. If he wants to communicate with him unimpeded, he has higher requirements for linguistics. I am afraid that he must have epic-level linguistics to be able to To meet the conditions.
Special skills above the master level can no longer be obtained with the power of the system. It is not a simple matter to learn special skills of this level, and a lot of time must be spent on research.
Rhodes recalled that the legendary linguistics allowed users to freely communicate with any creature in the world, no matter what that creature looked like, whether it was a humanoid or not, and this was the power of linguistics.
In Rhodes' memory, in the depths of the four elemental planes, there is a kind of magical creature, that is, the spiritual elemental person and the magic elemental person. It is said that they have cracked the mystery of linguistics and can directly from the spiritual level, To communicate with any kind of creature, ordinary elementals can only be counted as their servants.
Converted into a special skill level, it can be said that every spirit and magic element has legendary linguistics. If you want to break through the limitations of master-level linguistics and acquire higher-level special skills, the best way is to follow those spirit and magic elementalists and learn their communication methods.
In Rhodes' memory, the establishment of the Elemental City on the main plane in the early days of the third expansion was also related to those spirit and magic elemental people. Those elemental people who had been silent for a long time returned to the main plane, which also indicated that the storm was coming, and disaster and destruction would spread across the main plane.
At this time, looking at the half-dragon named Ann, Rhodes felt a little embarrassed. He has never allocated the skill points in his hand arbitrarily, so he has enough skill points left. Now, in order to understand An's words, should he allocate the remaining skill points to linguistics?
Just when Rhodes hesitated, Ann seemed to feel something. She looked at the dark yellow monster in the center of the magic ship, and let out a few unknown growls.
"Lord Rhodes, as you can see, we couldn't understand the words of this half-dragon man, and we couldn't learn from her what happened to the two ladies before they disappeared." Seeing this,
Kane took the initiative to explain to Rhodes, "City Master Vita has ordered to search for a master of linguistics in the main plane, but after a while, there may not be any gains..."
"I can understand." Rhodes waved his hand, interrupting Kane's words.
Linguistics masters are not so easy to find. Compared with linguistics, people are more willing to study spells. Generally, only in freelance chambers of commerce will there be people who specialize in linguistics.
There must be similar personnel in the Thieves Guild, but in the vicinity of the Undead City, finding a master of linguistics is no less difficult than finding a precious secret treasure while walking on the road.
Rhodes shook his head. Previously, Sao City and Sea Island did not care about the cultivation of scholars with various special skills. They paid more attention to the power of Necromancers. With enough Lich Kings, Rhodes can defeat any enemy.
Once it comes time to use these special skills, the limitations of strength are revealed. Rhodes could easily kill the half-dragon man, but he couldn't understand any meaning in her words at all, and Rhodes' other subordinates couldn't bring Rhodes any help in this regard.
Not just linguistics, any special skill has the value of research and development and improvement.
Research and development and use of large-scale war equipment, such as engineering of catapults and ballistas, first aid related to treatment and first aid, tactics of planning battlefields and dispatching troops, leadership techniques of commanding creatures of various races, exploring the ocean, manufacturing As for ship navigation, experts with special skills can be found in any large town in Erathia, but Rhodes hadn't paid attention to these aspects before.
In terms of strength, relying on spiritualism and the transformation of artifacts, the power of necromancers can reach the point where it far surpasses other creatures, but in terms of territory construction, it is not that simple, and all aspects involved cannot be achieved by strength. make up.
In the eyes of Rhodes, the value of a special skill scholar is far less than that of a sixth-level Lich King. The Lich King can help him sweep the enemy, but weak scholars can't do this. Ability can never be compared with Lich King.
But in the countless years in the dark space, in addition to studying spiritualism, Rhodes also thought about many issues in this area, and some concepts in his mind have also changed, especially the concept of special skills.
Based on the thinking in the dark space, Rhodes also has many new ideas for the construction of Sao City, but for him at present, the most important thing is to figure out what An was seeing at that time.
Rhodes took a deep breath. Just as he was about to spend a lot of skill points to raise the special skill Linguistics to the expert level first, he heard a short lingua franca from Ankou.
"Ro...de..."
Rhodes was taken aback, looking at the half-dragon man. He clearly heard his name coming from Ann's mouth. It was clearly called in the common language, but the voice was extremely awkward, like an ordinary creature pinching its nose and popping out of its throat little by little.
The lingua franca uttered by Ann undoubtedly explained something to Rhodes, which made Rhodes look at her strangely.
"Do you speak the common language?" Rhodes seemed to have thought of something, and asked Ann uncertainly.
"Ino...ta..." An turned his head slightly, looked at the monster in front of him, and said another name, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Rhode's last sentence.
She looked up at the monster, and after feeling the powerful aura that belonged to the monster, there was some fear in her eyes. Only when the name was mentioned, a smile appeared on her face.
Rhodes looked at her with some doubts. At this moment, a burst of space fluctuations suddenly occurred beside Rhodes, and then a human woman appeared in front of Rhodes.
"She doesn't speak the common language, and she can only speak a few simple words." The man slowly explained to Rhodes.
