“我要死了吗?”

燃起的篝火无法驱散身体的寒意,佐伊抱紧了怀中的弟弟,饥饿让他丧失了大部分的体能,但此刻他依旧紧紧地将只有十岁的弟弟护在身下,闭着眼睛等待着被撕咬的痛楚。„PerhapsDeathisextricates.”In the Zoeheartis thinking, hecanfeel that the youngyounger brotheris trembling.
“也许死亡就是解脱吧。”佐伊心中这么想着,他能感觉到年幼的弟弟在瑟瑟发抖。Hetriesto comfort the younger brother, butactuallydoes not know that shouldsayanything, can only twitteringsay: „Immediatelycansee the fathermother!......”
他试图安抚一下弟弟,但却不知道应该说些什么,只能呢喃道:“马上就可以见到父亲母亲!……”Was expected that the painhas not approached, darktransmits a wailing, shortly afterwardsis the thumpfalling to the groundsound.
预料中的痛苦并没有来临,暗黑中传来一声尖啸,紧接着是扑通的倒地声。„Eh?”
“咦?”In the darkness the oneslenderformappears, heis frowningto cast asideGhoul that a frontarrowwas killed violently, latershot a look atZoeto saytoward the rear area: „Team leader. Herealsohastwolive people!”
黑暗中一个修长的身影出现,他皱着眉头撇了一眼前方一箭毙命的食尸鬼,随后瞥了一眼佐伊朝着后方道:“队长。这里还有两个活人!”Was saved.
得救了。Zoeopened the eyepleasantly surpriseddesperately, the expressionhadresidualwithbeing wild with joy, heturns aroundto see a corpse.佐伊惊喜地睁开了眼睛,表情有残留的绝望与欣喜若狂,他转过身去看到了一具尸体。ThatisexceptionallyuglyGhoul, oncewashiscompanion, the name is Sinov, from the south windcounty, oncewas the onegroom.

那是一只异常丑陋的食尸鬼,曾经是他的同伴,名字叫做希诺夫,来自南风郡,曾经是一个马夫。这只食尸鬼的四肢非常纤细,脑袋的皮肤凹陷下去,看起来生前处于很久的饥饿状态,唯一比较特殊的就是它的肚子,这头食尸鬼的肚子高高的鼓起,看起来好像塞进去了石头一样。这样的特征也在佐伊和他年幼的弟弟身上出现,他们毫无例外肚子都有点鼓起,因为他们的胃里面保存的不是食物,而是树皮、草根、皮革,乃至是某种较为柔软的泥土。这些极难‘消化’的食物可以暂时抵御饥饿,但却不能补充他们需要的营养,曾经的同伴一个接着一个倒下,许多人都因为生前的饥饿折磨而变成了食尸鬼,包括他的父亲和母亲。Theywander about destitute the refugeeinwilderness, heard that the wealthandstable of Southern Coast, hopecrosses the wildernessto arrive atWind Lance Hills.
他们是流落在荒野中的难民,听说南海岸的富裕和安定,希望越过荒野到达风矛丘陵。„.”

The bread, hurriedto eatto selectyouto have the strength.”佐伊一下子两眼放光地扑了过去,拿出里面的黑面包便是啃了一口,那熟悉的味道顿时让他流泪满面,他已经很久没有吃过真正的食物了。仿佛是想到了什么,他赶紧掰下来一小块面包,然后放在嘴里嘴嚼了几下,接着拿出来伸到了虚弱的弟弟面前,小声道:“乔伊。有吃的了。面包,赶紧吃点你就有力气了。”„Water.”Roguesawhismovementvisiongently a point, laterthrew the onecanteen.
“水。”游荡者看见他的动作目光柔和了一点,随后将一个水壶扔了过来。Inwildernesshesawmanyhad lost the human nature and sanerefugeecompletely, presentyoungstertoomanypeoplebe better than hehas seen.
在荒野中他见过许多彻底丧失了人性和理智的难民,眼前的年轻人要比他见过的太多人好很多。„Live person?”
“还有活人吗?”

年轻的游荡者摇了摇头。

中年男子瞥了一眼,沉声道:“给他们准备点吃的。然后带去神庙交给牧师。这附近都被瘟疫感染了。”Then, hetowardnearbypersonsaid in a low voice: „Nowdeliversthemto walk, on the roadwas careful that theyturn intoGhoul.”
说完,他朝着旁边的人小声道:“现在送他们走,路上小心他们变成食尸鬼。”„You!......”
“你们!……”Zoeaftereating up the thingrestoredmanystrengthsimmediately, helooked up the awe a frontman, suddenlyrecognizedanythingprobably, the pleasant surprisesaid: „You!...... Youcome fromMordor City?......”佐伊在吃下东西后顿时恢复了不少力气,他抬头敬畏地看了一眼面前的男子,突然间好像认出来了什么,惊喜道:“你们!……你们是来自摩多城吗?……”

他还有很多事情要做,附近的水源都受到了污染,许多饱受饥饿的难民只需要一点点的死亡之力引发,便会在虚弱和饥饿中变成食尸鬼。他最开始接收的几批人里面有的在路上就变成了食尸鬼,不但咬死了许多难民,就连他的手下都阵亡了三个人。Thesemaycome from the Mordor Cityexpert!
这些可都是来自摩多城的好手!Thinksthismiddle-aged man is the whole faceloves dearly, the Wind Lance Hillsguardstrengthis too bad, heled12peopleto comefromMordor City, has not thought that a mistakedied in battleone fourthunexpectedly.
一想到这中年男子便是满脸心疼,风矛丘陵的卫队实力太差,他从摩多城就带了十二个人过来,没想到一次失误居然阵亡了四分之一。ThatdamnGhoul!
那该死的食尸鬼!
After youngRoguelooks atZoerestored a spiritwalked over, said solemnly: „Some of youralsohow manypeople?”
年轻的游荡者看佐伊恢复了一点精神后走了过来,沉声道:“你们还有多少人?”Zoethinks saying: „Somewhatfell behind. Onourroadencounteredonecrowd of Goblin. Alsosomehave turned...... turned when the monster that eats the person......

年轻的游荡者沉默不语。At this timeZoediscoveredopposite partyquitehigh and steepear, thisisoneHalf-ElfRogue.
这个时候佐伊才发现了对方颇为尖俏的耳朵,这是一个半精灵游荡者。„Followsme.”
“跟我走吧。”Roguedoes not seem like the interest of speech, said solemnly: „Ifirstleadyouto the safeplace.”游荡者似乎并没有说话的兴趣,沉声道:“我先带你们到安全的地方。”Foodgave a Zoephysical strength, buthiswordsaremakeZoehopeful, hehelped up the youngyounger brother, the footstepsto staggerwith.
食物给了佐伊一点体力,而他的话更是让佐伊充满希望,他一把扶起了年幼的弟弟,脚步踉跄地跟了上去。Onall the way, frontRogue, althoughis guiding, butis actually maintaining the distancewiththem, in the look the vigilance, whyZoehas not known, butmanycanguess correctly,perhaps is afraidhissuddenlyto turn intothattype‚to eat the monster of person’.一路上,前面的游荡者虽然在带路,可是却跟他们保持着距离,眼神中还有一丝警惕,佐伊不知道为什么,但多少可以猜到,也许是害怕他突然变成那种‘吃人的怪物’吧。Zoehas seenmanythatmonsters that eat the person.佐伊见过许多那种吃人的怪物。Theyare calledGhoul.
它们叫做食尸鬼。Alsoincluding the Zoeparents, after dying, turned intothesemonsters. Hestillrememberedthenscene, ifwere notteaminsideAdventurerkilledit, perhapshis parentsat that timebit to deathhim and younger brother.
包括佐伊的父母在内,死后也变成了这些怪物。他还记得当时的情景,如果不是队伍里面的冒险者杀死了它,恐怕他的父母当时就把他和弟弟咬死了。

中年男子目光平静,沉声道:“准备清扫吧。”„Hereis the importantroutetoWind Lance Hills, cannotmakeGhouloccupyhere. Informs the Darkedgeguardto prepareto act, the order that Mordor Cityconfessesisinthreedayssweeps clearcleanly.”
“这里是通往风矛丘陵的重要路线,不能让食尸鬼占据这里。通知暗刃卫队准备行动,摩多城交代的命令是三天内清扫干净。”„Yes.” The femalesbowto ask to be excused, disappearin the dim light of night.
“是。”女子躬身告退,消失在夜色中。

最后他整个人的意识都已经模糊了,当他恢复过来时,最先看到的是一位穿着白袍的中年牧师,对方朝着他温和一笑,随即对着旁边的游荡者道:“已经没事了。瘟疫已经被驱散了。带回去进行一次全面消毒,就可以送到安置营了。”Zoehas turned the headto see the younger brother of deep sleep.佐伊转过头看到了沉睡的弟弟。shortly afterwardsraidswearily, hefell into the deep sleepagain, is blurryfeltoneselfwere transportedon the carriageprobably, is being joltedhalfdreampartlyto awake.紧接着疲倦袭来,他又再度陷入了沉睡,迷迷糊糊间感觉自己好像被运到了马车上,然后在颠簸中半梦半醒。Whenconsciousnessthoroughlyrestores, hehas arrived atonepieceto extend more than tenli (0.5 km)shack.

一片惊叹声响起。Howeverwas being urged the advanceby the soldierquickly, theyhave sent under custodymanypeople, each timeiswhoas, has been sick.
不过很快就被士兵催促着前进,他们已经押送了许多人,每次都是一片惊叹声,早就已经厌烦了。„Youlook atthesepeople!...... ThesepeopleareDruid......”
“你看那些人!……那些人是德鲁伊……”InZoeside, the onesmall fellowsaidon the quiet: „Legendtheyhaveto letStrength that the landrejuvenationmyriad thingsgrow.”
