of square kilometers the only vitality is, you only then a little mind, know how slightly should do.” 酒保以一种理所当然的语气道:“永夜从不停歇的侵蚀着一切,它吞噬生界的土地和生命,而我们暗雾镇是方圆数十万平方公里内唯一的生机所在,你只有稍有点头脑,就知道该怎么做。” „It seems like

“03687号接待员,请按照规则对贡献者进行奖励,完毕。” bartender facial expression one cold, stood the body, explained toward Liu Ping: „This is Magic Mount...... it is very rare thing, another already from World of Death that collapses, has the research value.” 酒保神情一凛,站直了身子,朝柳平解释道:“这是魔法坐骑……它是很少见的东西,来自另一个已经崩溃的死亡世界,极具研究价值。” „——, since you can find so rare thing, then the status naturally does not stop in only miner.” “——既然你能找到如此稀有的东西,那么身份自然不止于区区一个矿工。” bartender fishes out three metal cards from the bosom, places in front of Liu Ping. 酒保从怀里摸出三张金属卡片,放在柳平面前。 On first card engraves a worn-out brown whip, as well as a pair of wrinkled leather glove. 第一张卡片上刻印着一根破旧的棕色鞭子,以及一双皱巴巴的皮手套。 On second card is a flare, a pair of dagger and bow crossbow. 第二张卡片上则是一根火把,一对匕首和弓弩。 pattern on third card is relatively simple, is one

correspondence, was sheltered by Dark Mist Town in the wilderness.” 他进一步解释道:“每个职业都有对应的培养方法,会教给你相关的基本技能,有对应的权力和薪酬,在荒野上受暗雾镇庇护。” „—— is natural, if you can reach certain standard, but can also promote toward on.” “——当然,你如果能达到一定标准,还能朝上晋升。” Liu Ping takes out that golden lance, places on front table gently. 柳平取出那根黄金长矛,轻轻放在面前的桌子上。 „This gives you.” He said. “这是给你的。”他说道。 bartender shakes the head to say hastily: „You do not need to bribe me, I also can only handle affairs according to rule, not possible to give you official profession outside rule.” 酒保连忙摇头道:“你不必贿赂我,我也只能按照规则行事,不可能把规则之外的正式职业给你。” Liu Ping pushes the golden lance to the opposite party in front of gently, said: „Relax, I do not have other request, but chooses profession regarding my newbie, is an important life important matter, therefore I want to listen to a more careful introduction.” 柳平将黄金长矛轻轻推至对方面前,说:“放心,我没有别的要求,只不过选职业对于我这种新人来说,是一件至关重要的人生大事,所以我想听听更加细致的介绍。” Under the gloomy light, on the golden lance sends out layer upon layer the ray, sprinkles on the bartender face gently, making in his facial expression many one point of gentleness. 暗淡灯光下,黄金长矛上散发出层层光芒,轻轻洒在酒保脸上,让他的神情之中多了一分柔和。 bartender smiled, said: „For each newbie that joins Dark Mist Town provides profession to illustrate, is my labor of duty, is my responsibility.” 酒保笑了起来,说道:“为每一个加入暗雾镇的新人提供职业解说,是我的本职工作,也是我的责任。” „Such being the case, I say —— in detail” “既然如此,我就详细说一说——” He put out a hand to select on three card in turn, said: „Supervises work to defend the mine, every day supervises the miners to mine, inspects the mineral aggregate, is quite laborious, but in the hand is puissant, can manage all miners ;” 他伸手在三张卡片上依次点了点,说:“监工守着矿山,每天监督矿工们挖矿,检查矿料,较为辛苦,但手中有权力,可以管所有矿工;” „Night Keeper is most dangerous in three profession, but the income is highest, needs certain strength to be competent ;” “守夜人在三个职业中最危险,但收益最高,需要一定实力才可以胜任;” „If you want to stay in Dark Mist Town, that chooses Town Guard, the Dark Mist Town internal public security and order is responsible for by Town Guard, there is a fight time, but now are getting fewer and fewer, the village and foothold that after all Evernight swallows are getting more and more, in the last several months arrived in our Dark Mist Town person almost to vanish.” “如果你想一直呆在暗雾镇的话,那就选镇卫兵,暗雾镇内部的治安和秩序由镇卫兵负责,也有战斗的时候,但现在越来越少,毕竟永夜吞噬的村庄和据点越来越多,最近几个月抵达我们暗雾镇的人几乎绝迹。” „You are young, I suggested that you become a Dark Mist Town guard, in this case, you only go on patrol with the daytime every day, at night does not need to go out, is safe.” “你还年轻,我建议你成为一名暗雾镇的卫兵,这样的话,你每天只用白天巡逻,夜晚则不必外出,非常安全。” „, Night Keeper......” Liu Ping hesitated not to say. “那么,守夜人……”柳平迟疑着没有说下去。 —— anything does not know, best or makes the opposite party say, after all already pays money. ——什么都不知道,最好还是让对方说,毕竟已经付了钱。 bartender has the explanation of patience: „Whenever arrives at night, when World of Death with our world superpositions, at this time was responsible for defending Dark Mist Town by Night Keeper, Night Keeper must the earliest possible time participate in fight —— coping with these monster, even must deal with Concealed Time and Space, till dawn.” 酒保颇有耐心的解释道:“每当夜晚降临,死亡世界跟我们的世界重合之际,这种时候就由守夜人负责保卫暗雾镇,守夜人必须第一时间参与战斗——对付那些怪物,甚至要应对隐藏时空,直到天亮为止。” „Can protect the entire small town?” Liu Ping asked. “必须保护整个小镇？”柳平问。 „At least protects the bar, the bar is issued that the news and makes the transaction the place, but also stops over the rest in this, provides supply ; If this place were destroyed by monster, then the small town did not have the significance of existence.” bartender said. “至少保护住酒吧,酒吧是发布消息和做交易的地方,还供人在此落脚休息,提供补给;如果这个地方被怪物毁了,那么小镇也就没有了存在的意义。”酒保道。 Liu Ping falls into the thinking. 柳平陷入思索。 In World of Death only has the night, never sees the daytime. 死亡世界之中唯有黑夜,从来不见白昼。 Concealed Time and Space...... 隐藏时空…… Liu Ping shakes the head slightly. 柳平微微摇头。 ——, that is not Cultivation World! ——不,那是修行世界！ That is our world. 那是我们的世界。 Why to turn into a part of World of Death it? 凭什么把它变成死亡世界的一部分？ If elects to supervise work or Town Guard, perhaps does not have the opportunity to explore Concealed Time and Space in World of Death again. 如果选监工或镇卫兵,恐怕就再没机会探索死亡世界中的隐藏时空。 Then, 那么, Choosing already is very explicit. 选择已经很明确。 Liu Ping extend the hand, selected one from three metal cards, spreads out in the palm. 柳平伸出手,从三张金属卡片中挑了一张,摊开在手掌中。 When he does this, placed that Magic Mount statue on table to disappear —— 当他这样做的时候,原本放在桌上的那个魔法坐骑雕像不见了—— Looking like taken away to be the same by what thing suddenly. 就像是突然被什么东西拿走了一样。 bartender saw this, the facial expression becomes with deep veneration. 酒保见了这一幕,神情变得肃然。 He said in an official tone: 他以一种正式的语气说道: „Welcome to join Dark Mist Town.” “欢迎加入暗雾镇。”
