<h4>Chapter 275: The Notebook</h4>

    This notebook hadn’t been taken out for a long time, and it was covered with a thickyer of dust. When the notebook was pulled out, Divine Nine sneezed.


    Divine Nine’s snow-white fur was stained with ayer of dust.


    Divine Nine red 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 identally 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 folknguages 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’snguage?


    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 manynguages 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 trantion under eachnguage. Even so, there were still many of the words that Lauren couldn’t understand.


    The gap betweennguages was huge.


    Before introducing eachnguage, the guy gave a rough introduction of the nationality of people who spoke thenguage, their poption, the location, and so on.


    Lauren spent two hours finishing one-third of the notebook.


    She saw a fewnguages that were rtively simr 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 urred to Lauren that she had to save time to y with Ruby, so she wouldn’t have time toplete 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 thenguage of a tribe.


    Thisnguage was thest 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 tranted to “reign”.


    More than 10 years ago, the poption 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 nk pages on the thick notebook.


    Could it be that the guy had already collected all thenguages?


    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 poption 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 manipte humans.


    The book also introduced a fewmonly used witchcrafts.. One of them was the red and white talisman about the size of a thumb that Lauren discovered.
