The men are staring Erin immediately, said righteously: „But you were not first time delay. According to the Deepblue custom, I completely have the reason to request you to render back the money immediately, if you, either follow me, works to pay off a debt in labor, either tumbles out Deepblue to go!” 男人立刻瞪着艾琳,理直气壮地说:“但你可不是第一次拖延了。按照深蓝的规矩,我完全有理由要求你立刻还钱,假如你还不出的话,要么就跟我走,干活抵债,要么就滚出深蓝去！” When the men change Richard has exchanged a smiling face, the turning hostile speed quickly endures compared with the instantaneous magic: „Perhaps respect Richard your excellency, we should not appear here, but we are handling matters according to the Deepblue custom, does not dare to have tiny bit disobeying. Great Your Highness Sharon had said that the contract cannot be deceived. But this woman does not go into debt, is not willing or provides the service according to the custom payment interest, should not be hoodwinked by her pitiful look!” 男人转向李察时又已换上一副笑脸,变脸速度之快堪比瞬发魔法:“尊敬的李察阁下,或许我们不该出现在这里,但我们都是按照深蓝的规矩在办事,不敢有一丝一毫的违逆。伟大的苏海伦殿下曾经说过,契约不容亵渎。而这个女人欠帐不还,又不肯按规矩支付利息或者提供服务,您不要被她的可怜相蒙蔽！” His manner is very respectful, however in the words is also actually concealing strongly. The Deepblue custom said strictly are not many, but is strong like the steel and iron, Archmage do not have the qualifications to violate, Richard does not have this qualifications. 他的态度很恭敬,然而言辞中却也隐含着强硬。深蓝的规矩严格说起来不多,但如钢铁般强硬,就连大魔导师们都没有资格去违反,李察就更没有这个资格。 Richard knit the brows, turns head to look at Erin, in the eyes of young girl has to shrink with obviously frightened. Moreover her vision does not dare to move with Richard directly. 李察皱了皱眉,回头看了看艾琳,少女的眼中明显有着畏缩和恐惧。而且她的目光根本就不敢和李察正面碰触。 The Richard five fingers draw , the magic fireball of caper surfaces the boat several meters, then Bang explodes disperses Annihilation. So exquisite magic control lets three man complexion big changes, has drawn back unrestrainedly several steps. Turns over to rational rational, but the both sides status is extremely disparate, they fear certainly. If Richard is sad for a while gets a cut to make the remnant, only trouble them, is the gold coin compensation. 李察五指收拢,跳跃的魔法火球上浮数米,然后砰的一声炸散湮灭。如此精妙的魔法操控让三个男人脸色大变,情不自禁地退了几步。有理归有理,但是双方身份地位太过悬殊,他们当然还是怕的。如果李察一时心情不好把他们弄伤弄残,唯一的麻烦,也就是金币赔偿而已。 Richard has swept their one eyes, said: „She owes your account, I for her. Now immediately get lost to me!” 李察扫了他们一眼,说:“她欠你们的帐,我会替她还。现在立刻给我滚！” „But......” is the man of head is unwilling obviously, but also is staring secretly is hiding in Richard back Erin. “可是……”为首的男人明显心有不甘,还在偷偷盯着躲在李察背后的艾琳。 Richard has sneered, said: „What's wrong, do you plan to doubt my prestige?” 李察冷笑了一下,说:“怎么,你们打算置疑我的信誉？” Three man complexions turn white immediately, said repeatedly does not dare. However was the man of head stared at Erin one suddenly maliciously, said wickedly: „Little thing, you are waiting to me, later should better not a person to go home!” 三个男人脸色立刻发白,连声说不敢。但是为首的男人忽然狠狠盯了艾琳一眼,恶狠狠地说:“小东西,你给我等着,以后最好不要一个人回家！” Richard complexion sank, three men step out immediately, dashes about wildly to go. Until their backs vanish by far, Richard turns head, looks at Erin that the both arms surrounded oneself, to lower the head do not speak, sighed, asked: „How much money do you owe them?” 李察脸色一沉,三个男人立刻加快脚步,一路狂奔而去。直到他们的背影远远消失,李察才回头,看了看双臂环抱自身、低头不语的艾琳,叹了口气,问:“你欠他们多少钱？” „One...... 1200 gold coins.” The Erin sound is very light, somewhat shivers obviously, but her shoulder quietly is shrugging, obviously is lowering the head the sob. “一……1200金币。”艾琳的声音很轻,明显有些颤抖,而她的肩则在悄悄耸动,显然在低头哭泣。 Richard starts to speak but hesitates, finally sighed. 李察欲言又止,最终只是叹了口气。 He remembers as ever previous Erin has not been willing to make his money, however is also less than now for one year, the thing is the person not. If no no way out, perhaps Erin will not tell the number that he goes into debt. But said the digit, means that she prepared to accept the subsidization of Richard. Within one year, chaste, self-respect and proud went to her unexpectedly. But in the past young girl who pokes head from the bathroom entrance, once the whole body was actually sending out sunlight good flavor/smell. 他犹然记得上一次艾琳还不肯赚他的钱,然而现在还不到一年,已经物是人非。如果不是走投无路,或许艾琳仍不会告诉他欠债的数目。而说出数字,也就意味着她准备好了接受李察的资助。就在一年之内,纯洁、自尊和骄傲竟都已离她而去。而当年从浴室门口探头进来的少女,却曾经周身都散发着阳光般的好味道。 The heart of Richard unknowingly draws tight, some is a moment ago because that man said „you have not made money from the man” these words, more is actually because compels the debt number of her so having no way out, only then trivial 1200 gold coins. 李察的心在不经意间抽紧,有些是因为刚才那个男人说的“你不也从男人身上赚过钱”这句话,更多的却是因为把她逼到如此走投无路的债务数目,只有区区1200金币。 1200 gold coins, but initially he tested two magic might, drinks two bottles to resume the consumption of Potion. That was one year ago past event, present Richard has not drunk ordinary Mana Recovery Potion, that thing effect was too bad, becomes effective is too slow. But when each month beginning of the month attains the bill, he does not even look at the final four figures, because four amortizations are four nine, is only the meaningless odd changes. 1200金币,不过是当初他实验两个魔法威力,喝两瓶恢复药剂的耗费而已。那还是一年前的旧事了,现在的李察已经不喝普通的魔力恢复药剂,那东西效果太差,生效太慢。而在每月月初拿到帐单时,他甚至根本不去看最后的四位数,因为无论是四个零还是四个九,都只是毫无意义的零头而已。 Richard is very tranquil, cannot see the fluctuation of any mood from his face, is only indifferent asking: „This sum of money I for you. Other?” 李察很平静,从他的脸上根本看不到任何情绪的波动,只是淡然的问:“这笔钱我替你还吧。还有别的吗？” Erin hesitated for a moment, said low voice: „Also owes several other person 400 gold coins, but I can try to find the solution......” 艾琳犹豫了一下,小声说:“还欠另外几个人400金币,不过我可以自己想办法……” Richard has broken her: „Altogether 1600 gold coins, do not have the issue!” 李察打断了她:“一共1600金币是吧,没问题！” Erin raised the head, before that touches and goes on the face with the hand back finally hurriedly. She looked at Richard, finally smiled reluctantly, put out a hand to gather together the hair, now her the mood was completely calm, the weak smiling face as if also had one initially the shadow of that sunlight young girl: „But I do not have the ability to make this sum of money, at least in six months has no way also you. My anything did not have, only then I. Therefore you want my words, momentarily can look for me.” 艾琳终于抬起头,在那之前,匆忙地用手背在脸上擦过。她看了一眼李察,终于无奈地笑了笑,又伸手拢了拢头发,现在她的情绪已经完全平静下来,微弱的笑颜似乎还有一丝当初那个阳光少女的影子,:“可是我没有能力赚出这笔钱,至少半年内没法还你。我什么都没有了,只有我自己。所以你想要我的话,随时都可以来找我。” Richard has not heard her in saying anything probably, but takes out a short note, brushed to write the payment proof above, signed own name again, forced in Erin, then said goodbye continually has not said one, walked toward own residential area on the stride. Goes out several steps, Richard turns head suddenly, the young girl has not departed, but is both hands closely grasps itself, bows to squat on the spot. 李察好象没有听见她在说什么,而是取出一张便签,刷刷在上面写好了支付凭据,再签上自己的名字,塞进艾琳手里,然后连再见都没有说一声,就大步向自己的居住区走去。走出几步,李察忽然回头,少女并未离去,而是双手紧紧抱住自己,屈膝蹲在原地。 His heart sighed one again lightly, arrived in front of the young girl. Erin has lifted the head, is looking up to Richard, said in a soft voice: „I...... I am afraid very much. Sorry......” 他的心底再次轻叹一声,重新走到少女面前。艾琳抬起了头,仰望着李察,轻声说:“我……我很害怕。对不起……” „Because of these men?” “是因为那些男人？” Erin nodded silently. 艾琳默默地点了点头。 Richard reached out the young girl, said: „Walks, I deliver you to go back. I must have a look but actually, who dares to block you on the road.” 李察向少女伸出了手,说:“走吧,我送你回去。我倒要看看,谁敢在路上拦你。” In the Richard words has taken light murderous aura. In he pledged for the situation of Erin repayment of debt, if these people dare to pester again act sloppily, that Richard does not mind to them a deep lesson, even delivers several people to go to hell. 李察的话中已经带上了淡淡的杀气。在他已经承诺替艾琳偿还债务的情况下,如果那些人再敢纠缠胡来,那李察并不介意给他们一个深深的教训,甚至送几个人下地狱。 The residents in Deepblue’s Main Tower and fringe area completely are two social classes, has the huge right difference. If Richard killed people in the fringe area, only needs to lose money and that's the end, in the opposite party malicious provocation or was insults in his situation, Richard absolutely did not have the responsibility, lost money continually exempts. 深蓝主塔和边缘区的居民完全是两个阶级,有着巨大的权利差别。如果李察在边缘区杀了人,只需要赔钱就是了,而在对方恶意挑衅或者是侮辱到了他的情况下,李察则完全没有责任,连赔钱都免了。 Erin grips the hand of Richard, has stood with the strength. Then she has taken back hand immediately quietly, and falls behind the Richard half step slightly. 艾琳握住李察的手,借力站了起来。然后她立刻悄悄收回了手,并且稍稍落后李察半步。 From the main tower to the fringe area is a section of long and peaceful road. The night deeply, the pedestrian on road were not many, a few people pass through in a hurry, not looks at one to Richard and Erin. They already, in a day rushed about busily has exhausted the physical strength, now is only hoping can go back earlier, slept warmly, tomorrow all day work will also be waiting. 从主塔到边缘区是一段漫长而安静的路。夜已经深了,路上的行人并不多,少数几个人匆匆走过,都没向李察和艾琳望上一眼。他们已经在一天的奔波忙碌中耗尽了体力,现在只盼着能够早点回去,暖和地睡上一觉,明天还有一整天的工作在等着呢。 All the way, Richard and Erin throughout remain silent, has not spoken any a few words. Two people do not know that should say anything, one year passes by, they were also in the speechless situation unexpectedly. 一路上,李察和艾琳始终保持着沉默,没有说任何一句话。两个人也都不知道该说什么,一年过去,他们竟也到了无言的地步。 The Erin residence in the alley in fringe area surrounding, is one set cannot see outside Deepblue the enclosed room of picture. The window has, is only many ornaments, the window can only open to the room likely, outside extends a place of palm of the hand is the wall of courtyard, the magic light is the only lighting source. Similar house finds at everywhere in the fringe area, but has the outdoor scene window room price is this kind of house three to four times. Although revolves Deepblue, but also is spreading several small towns fragmentarily, however the external people rather live in Deepblue, even if the black room in fringe area, on the resident compared with small town is dignified. 艾琳的居所在边缘区外围的一条小巷中,是一套看不到深蓝外面景象的封闭式房间。窗户还是有的,只是更多的象个摆设,窗户只能向房间内侧打开,外面伸过去一个巴掌的地方就是天井的墙壁,魔法灯光是惟一的照明光源。类似的房子在边缘区随处可见,而有外景窗的居室价格是这类房屋的三至四倍。虽然围绕着深蓝,还零星散布着几个小镇,但是外来的人们都宁可住在深蓝里面,哪怕是边缘区的黑屋,也比小镇上的居民要体面。 Delivers to the entrance Erin, after having taken down the address secretly, Richard turns around to depart, intends not to go to look at Erin to have the vision of hope. 把艾琳送到门口,暗自记下了地址后,李察就转身离去,有意没有去看艾琳带着期盼的目光。 Because the day is cold, the night fringe area is very silent, the light is dim, the inferior polymerization fuel is quite unstable, the ray clearly suddenly extinguishes suddenly, dragging, is pulling the bulk the shadow, imitates such as a leader Foreign Plane monster, crawls crawling, momentarily possible vertical to leap preys on the game. 由于天还寒冷,夜晚的边缘区十分寂静,灯光昏暗,劣质的聚合燃料相当不稳定,光芒忽明忽灭,摇曳着,拉扯出大块的阴影,仿如一头头异位面的怪兽,匍匐爬行,随时可能纵跃捕食猎物。 Why does not know, Richard thinks suddenly somewhat coldly. Here approached fringe area most surrounding, the temperature, only then ten degrees below zero. However the Richard magic robe nature and ordinary Mage are different, is 50 degrees below zero can also resist. However now Richard thinks somewhat coldly, moreover is very cold unnatural. That is damp ice cold cold, as if places oneself in the ice hole that ten thousand years do not melt, is coagulates including the air, as if falls in the cave of reptilia, once for a while has any thing to crawl from the back. Quick Richard had light perspiration, soaks the personal clothes, is especially uncomfortable. 不知为什么,李察忽然觉得有些冷。这里已经靠近边缘区最外围,温度只有零下十度。不过李察的魔法袍自然和普通魔法师不同,就是零下50度也可以抵御。但是现在李察却觉得有些冷,而且冷得很不自然。那是一种阴湿冰寒的冷,仿佛置身于万年不融化的冰窟中,连空气都是凝固的,又似乎掉落在爬虫类的地窖中,时不时有什么东西从脊背上蛇行而过。很快李察就出了一身薄薄的汗,湿透贴身的衣服,格外难受。 His heavily putting out one breath, loosened the knot of magic robe neckband place. When the fingertip bumps into the badge of neckband accidentally, suddenly was burnt! That badge does not know when starts to send out the hazy ray, and burning hot is incomparable. This badge is the Sharon students unique thing, is not only the symbol of status, but also solidified a magic of detection hostility. But it becomes so the burning hot, explained the enemy already in left Jin, and did not cover kills intent! 他重重的吐出一口气,松开了魔法袍领口处的扣子。当指尖无意中碰到领口的徽章时,忽然被烫了一下！那枚徽章不知何时开始发出朦朦的光芒,并且炙热无比。这枚徽章是苏海伦的学生们特有之物,不仅仅是身份地位的象征,还固化了一个侦测敌意的魔法。而它变得如此炙热,说明敌人已在左近,并且不掩杀意！ Richard stiffens suddenly! 李察突然僵住！ Behind the Richard side, a piece of shadow starts the bulge, then emits a human form living thing from inside. It like tearing to pieces the cocoon strippings has cut the shadow, if then the cheetah kicks out, in the hand a depth grey short-sword of handle non- light punctured maliciously to the Richard waist! 在李察的侧后方,一片阴影开始凸起,然后从里面冒出一个人形生物。它象撕破茧皮那样划开了阴影,然后若猎豹般扑出,手中一柄无光的深灰短剑已向李察后腰狠狠刺来！ This records the thorn to strike very ruthless fast, starts in the short distance suddenly, sneak attacked is well-trained Warrior is also hard to resist, let alone is only did not have grown Magic Acolyte? Assassin and bow monkey poor comes is the Mage difficult adversary, but one is near body, another is long-distance. 这记刺击狠辣迅捷,又是在近距离突然发动,被偷袭的就是训练有素的战士也难以抵挡,何况只是个还没成年的魔法学徒？杀手和弓狙手素来是魔法师的克星,只不过一个是近身,另一个则是远程。 When the short-sword sword touches magic robe sharp, unexpectedly accidental/surprised one, cannot puncture thoroughly magic robe! Assassin reaction is also good, not slightly flurried, the sword does not see any crab sharp, an unmoving point, the thrust augmentation punctures again. On magic robe shines the light brown ray immediately, then the ballooning gets up, another translucent protecting shield was triggered. 短剑剑尖触及魔法袍时,居然意外的一偏,没能刺透法袍！杀手的反应也是不俗,没有丝毫慌乱,剑尖也不见任何偏斜,凝定一点,加力再刺。魔法袍上立刻亮起淡淡的土黄色光芒,然后鼓胀起来,另一个半透明的护盾被触发。 Assassin felt immediately own arm such as searches into the rich mud together with the weapon, brandishes is very strenuous. But Assassin is not first time assassinates Mage, copes with Magic Barrier to have the rich experience. Therefore he was still the sword was scheduled in that point sharp, the Eruption strength, the short-sword such as the awl chisel punctured suddenly, scoffed at one, has cut a big opening on magic robe! 杀手立刻感觉到自己的手臂连同武器如探入浓郁的泥浆中,挥舞之间十分吃力。但杀手不是第一次刺杀魔法师,对付魔法护盾更有丰富经验。于是他仍是剑尖定于那一点上,骤然爆发力量,短剑如锥凿般刺下,嗤啦一声,已经在魔法袍上划开了一个大口子！ However after magic robe, is spatial! 然而魔法袍后是空的！ The Assassin arm wields, flings magic robe one side, saw that Richard taking the opportunity ran several meters, is rushing to a small lane entrance of shadow. Assassin secretly rejoices immediately, because had his another partner to ambush in that alley, Richard this is bringing about own destruction! Whose hand however the game dies , the merit is different. Assassin accelerates immediately, upper body leans forward to almost with ground parallel, to surpass a Richard time of speed to pursue near. 杀手手臂一挥,把魔法袍甩到一旁,看到李察已经借机跑出数米,正向一个阴影的小巷口奔去。杀手立刻一阵暗喜,因为在那个小巷中已经有他的另一个伙伴在埋伏着,李察这是在自寻死路！然而猎物死在谁的手里,功劳却是不同的。杀手立刻加速,上身前倾到几乎与地面平行,以超出李察一倍的速度追近。 Perhaps Richard is runs away too hurriedly, the under foot stumbles, flew high to fall unexpectedly. Flurried, he puts out a hand to grasp to an iron bar that on the lane wall attaches, wants taking advantage of the body that the strength stands firm itself to soar evidently. Already to Richard, only then leaps distance the Assassin great happiness, present Richard completely is a living target, moreover can definitely before he runs into the alley strikes to kill. Once makes Richard run into the alley, that may be hard to snatch before the companion starts. 李察或许是逃得太匆忙,脚下一绊,竟然凌空摔了出去。慌乱中,他伸手抓向巷壁上附着的一根铁条,看样子是想要借力稳住自己飞腾出去的身体。已经离李察只有一跃距离的杀手大喜,现在的李察完全就是个活靶子,而且完全能够在他逃入小巷前击杀。一旦让李察逃入小巷,那可就难以抢在同伴之前下手了。 Therefore Assassin raises to the highest speed suddenly, the short-sword once again thorn to Richard waist! 于是杀手骤然提至最高速,短剑再度刺向李察的腰肋！ However held iron bar Richard to display the entirely different strength suddenly! His body took the iron bar to delimit a semicircle as center of circle, patted on the wall, exactly had actually evaded Assassin fatal struck! But Assassin that swoops fully strikes to fail, actually because of making an effort to be incapable of controlling the direction excessively, depends on the inertia to brush to fly from Richard. In the Assassin eye, this was equal to makes Richard inspect the whole body strategic point, fortunately he was Mage, if were also Assassin...... 然而抓住了铁条的李察忽然展现出截然不同的力量！他的身体以铁条为圆心划了个半圆,啪的一声拍在墙壁上,却恰好避过了杀手的致命一击！而全力飞扑的杀手一击落空,却因用力过度而无力控制方向,依着惯性从李察面前擦身飞过。在杀手的眼中,这就等同于把全身要害都让李察检阅了一遍,还好他是个魔法师,如果也是一名杀手的话…… Assassin just rejoiced that suddenly sees a Richard right hand booklet, when that three centimeters serve as overhauls the outer wall the iron bar of fixed equipment to come to break off thickly! Half meter iron bar short-sword utilization that then Richard folding, one pricks Assassin waist likely, selects again shakes. This records to prick taken spot Precision (accurate) is incomparable, deeply inserts from the rib, hits the vertebra again, then still had to moisten the successive the nerve to select, and leaves behind an extremely huge wound in the Assassin abdomen. Several common petty actions, staying behind lets the fatal injury that High Rank Cleric is also at a loss, the technique that Richard uses, clearly is one of the Dark World exquisitest techniques! 杀手刚刚庆幸,忽然看到李察右手一折,那根三厘米粗用作检修外墙时固定设备的铁条居中折断！然后李察把折下的半米铁条象短剑般运用,一下刺入杀手的腰肋,再一挑一抖。这记刺入所取的部位精确无比,自肋下深深插入,再撞断脊椎,然后把尚有沾连的神经挑断,并且在杀手腹中留下一个极为巨大的创口。几下毫不起眼的小动作,却留下让高阶神术师也束手无策的致命伤势,李察所用的手法,分明是黑暗世界最精湛的技艺之一！
