The dim light of night is deep, that thick falling flurry under had not stopped late at night, although the snow is not big, actually still gentle silent covered the entire city —— not too thick snow such as the pale bandage, after wrapping the countless scar of this city after disaster, all covers up without enough time the thing of these healing. 夜色深沉,那场纷纷扬扬的小雪一直下到了后半夜仍未停下,雪虽不大,却仍旧轻柔无声地覆盖了整座城——不算太厚的积雪如苍白的绷带,包裹着这座城市历经灾害之后的累累伤痕,将那些来不及愈合的东西皆遮掩起来。 The bloodstain that the destroyed construction, cleans up without enough time, the steam walkie-talkie of abandonment, the street barricade of waiting demolition, the siltation, cleans up not to know that in entire city almost all corners requires how much time dry „mud”. 被破坏的建筑,来不及清理的血迹,报废的蒸汽步行机,等待拆除的街垒,还有淤积在整座城市几乎所有角落、清理起来不知需要多少时间的干涸“泥浆”。 The mirror invasion abated, but this Vision disaster brings „by-product” remained in the city in the form of entity material. 镜像入侵消退了,但这场异象灾害带来的“副产物”以实体物质的形式在城市中留了下来。 Church has pressed the flow control after at nightfall the city revolution. 教会已按流程接管入夜之后的城市运转。 Carries Guardian of inspection lamp to alert is gazing at the street under curtain of night, any strange sound that each is unable completely to be illuminated the dark corner and ear that transmits by the gas street light. 携带提灯的守卫者们警醒地注视着夜幕下的街头,警惕着每一处无法完全被瓦斯路灯照亮的阴暗角落以及耳边传来的任何诡异声响。 In the air is fluttering aura that fumigates with incense the combustion, standing night watch pastor in a soft voice twittering prayed has the relieved strength. 空气中飘动着熏香燃烧的气息,守夜牧师轻声的呢喃祝祷带着令人安心的力量。 „Tonight as if is very tranquil......” a black clothes guard to stare at the gloomy place on street, crossed whispered to partner for a long time suddenly, „I also think tonight still had the fierce battle.” “今天晚上似乎很平静……”一名黑衣守卫盯着街道上的阴暗处,过了许久才突然对身旁的伙伴嘀咕道,“我还以为今夜仍有恶战。” „Everyone thinks that” another longhaired female black clothes guards the low voice opens the mouth, on the inspection lamp that her waist is hanging is also fixing several scrip­tures cotton tape that with the sealing wax writes all over the pray article, this was demonstrating she is the team leader of this squad, „after all just experienced that serious transcendent disaster, some massive Priest sacrifices...... the protection of City-State will arrive in the bottom in tonight properly speaking.” “所有人都这么认为的,”另一名长发披肩的女性黑衣守卫小声开口,她腰间悬挂的提灯上还用火漆固定着几段写满祈祷文的经文布带,这显示着她是这支小队的领队,“毕竟刚刚经历了那么严重的超凡灾害,又有大量神官牺牲……按理说城邦的防护会在今夜抵达最低点。” „Other standing night watch squads have not as if transmitted situation —— this night to link whistling sound not to have.” “其他守夜小队似乎都没传来情况——这夜里连一声哨声都没有。” „...... Tightens the nerve in brief, before Sun raises, cannot relax.” “……总之绷紧神经吧,在太阳升起之前,一刻都不能放松。” „Yes, Team leader.” “是,队长。” Is called the female black clothes of team leader to guard nods gently, looked that to not far away another squad that bustles about. 被称作队长的女性黑衣守卫轻轻点了点头,又看向不远处正在忙碌的另外一支小队。 The exquisite brass incense burner was slung by the thin chain, in the incense burner is dissipating the indistinct smog outward, a silent member with incense is street blessing, in a soft voice twittering the God of Death prayer, low rank Priest of several accompanying cautiously are collecting black silt sample in nearby wall, lamp pole and ground with the shaving knife and glass jar. 精巧的黄铜香炉被细链吊起,香炉中向外逸散着缥缈的烟雾,一名寂静修士用熏香为街道赐福,轻声呢喃着死亡之神的祷文,几名随行的低阶神官则小心翼翼地用刮刀和玻璃瓶收集着附近墙壁、路灯柱和地面上的黑色淤泥样本。 After these is dry „mud” has completely lost the activeness, will not present the fearsome abnormal appearance, when the shaving knife cuts open its surface, the sense of reality that they present like some type subarid does not do and structure exquisite...... „pigment”. 那些干涸之后的“泥浆”已经完全失去活性,再也不会呈现出可怖畸形的模样,当刮刀切开其表面的时候,它们呈现出的质感就像某种半干不干而又结构细腻的……“颜料”。 „You said how many this types...... in this city the present can have ‚sludge’?” “你说……这城里现在得有多少这种‘污泥’？” She cannot bear turn head said to subordinate whisper. 她忍不住回头对身旁的手下嘀咕道。 „Who knows in —— it is said surface these few, in the sewer and subway are the disaster area, several sewage treatment plants, these places were almost piled up with by this type of silt. City hall that side present one group of chaotic, does not know how long this must clean up.” “谁知道呢——据说地表上这些还是少的呢,下水道和地铁里才是重灾区,还有几个污水处理厂,那些地方几乎被这种淤泥堆满了。市政厅那边现在一团乱,也不知道这要清理多久。” „Cleaning up sludge...... at least this is most relaxed troubled, female team leader who we must face” sighed gently, looked up to the street end, „the trouble that present Cold Frost must face may have these strange mud incessantly.” “清理污泥……至少这已经是我们要面对的最轻松的麻烦了,”女队长轻轻叹了口气,抬起头看向街道尽头,“现在寒霜要面临的麻烦可不止有这些诡异的泥浆。” Nearby black clothes guards hears word also to raise the head subconsciously, looked that to direction that Chief oneself gazes. 旁边的黑衣守卫闻言也下意识抬起头,看向自己队长注视的方向。 That is harbor area of City-State edge, there brilliantly illuminated, transmits the sound indistinctly. 那是城邦边缘的港口区,那里灯火通明,隐约传来声响。 „Yes, may have the mud...... black clothes guard to whisper incessantly”, the tone strange brings intense, „an entire Sea Mist fleet also gathers round this city.” “是啊,可不止有泥浆……”黑衣守卫嘀咕着,语气古怪中带着一丝紧张,“一整支海雾舰队还围着这座城市呢。” ...... …… Eastern harbor area, brilliantly illuminated, a babel of voices. 东部港口区,灯火通明,人声鼎沸。 In only as the entire battle resisted the monster invasion throughout and continually the harbor of revolution, Donggang after the fight ended was still maintaining busily. 作为整场保卫战中唯一一座始终抵挡住了怪物入侵并持续运转的港口,东港在战斗结束之后仍维持着忙碌。 All docks and engineering machinery were used, the staff of all remaining ample forces must work overtime , conducted the temporary repair in several wharves that in the daytime fight are damaged mildly at the maximum speed, to supply these situation good ships to approach shore the conditioning. 所有的船坞和工程机械都被用上,所有尚存余力的工作人员都要加班,在白天的战斗中轻度受损的几个码头也以最快的速度进行了临时修复,以供那些情况较好的舰船靠岸修整。 To many people in city, the fight had ended, tonight is they restore the spirit and healing wound the time, but to the Cold Frost navy and port back-up unit, the fight still continued —— to have the massive ships heavy losses urgently needed service, lots of wounded person need to treat, moreover compared with these things, they have one to be thornier, a more complex situation to need to face: 对城市中的许多人而言,战斗已经结束,今夜是他们恢复精神、愈合伤口的时候,但对寒霜海军以及港口后勤单位而言,战斗仍然持续着——有大量的舰船重创急需维修,大量的伤员需要治疗,而且比起这些事情,他们更有一个更加棘手、更加复杂的情况需要面对: Sea Mist fleet, their today's temporary allies, their deep nightmares over the past 50 years. 海雾舰队,他们今日的临时战友,他们过去50年的深沉噩梦。 That biggest strongest, let countless Cold Frost people in the past 50 years brings to frighten the child „Ghost Ship”, at this time stopped by a Donggang biggest wharf. 那艘最大最强,在过去50年里让无数寒霜人拿来吓唬小孩的“幽灵船”,这时候就停在东港最大的一座码头旁。 The palatial bow stands tall and erect in the curtain of night, the deck fort and bridge construct in the wind and snow reveal just like the ghost sketch, the light hit to take in the armor from the shore, reflect to remind us of the pale reflection of skeleton, but in the side of that steel giant beast, faces the Cold Frost broad side edge, the broad arrange/cloth curtain swings in the wind, above uses the rough way to write was looking is writing —— that the temporary doodle comes up 巍峨的舰首在夜幕中高耸,甲板炮台与舰桥建筑在风雪中露出宛若鬼怪般的剪影,灯光从岸边打在装甲带上,反射出令人联想到骸骨的苍白反光,而在那钢铁巨兽的侧面,朝向寒霜的船舷边缘,宽阔的布幔在风中摆动,上面用粗犷的方式写着一看就是临时涂鸦上去的文字—— „Sea Mist Risk Investment Firm in Cold Frost temporary visit inspection vessel.” “海雾风险投资公司驻寒霜临时访问考察船。” Even if has said goodbye the Cold Frost soldier of great storms, without seeing this weaponry ——, no matter what who walked at this time from the wharf, must stare at these rough large characters to look at for quite a while, and is suppressing to the impulsion that oneself several big mouth female genitals sober. 哪怕是再见过大风大浪的寒霜军人,也没见过这种阵仗——任谁这时候从码头走过去,都得盯着那些粗犷的大字看半天,并且强忍着给自己几个大嘴巴子清醒清醒的冲动。 „Captain,” first mate Eden passes through the deck, arrives is standing Tyrian that looks into the gunwale downward behind, „banner has hung, according to you said that as far as possible appears friendly.” “船长,”大副艾登走过甲板,来到正站在甲板边缘向下眺望的提瑞安身后,“横幅已经挂出去了,按您说的,尽量显得友好一点。” Tyrian un, actually raised the hand referred to below wharf ground these once for a while near Sea Mist the soldier and worker who stop to stay and wait and see anxiously: „But do I look at them probably am very anxious?” 提瑞安嗯了一声,紧接着却又抬手指了指下方码头地面上那些时不时在海雾号附近驻足停留、不安观望的士兵和工人:“但我看他们好像还是挺紧张？” „Does not know that what's the matter, probably this Cold Frost person of age compares one startled one for the first time,” Eden flexure smooth head, „, or did I go with say one hand/subordinate? Let them get down these expelling that surrounds in the nearby?” “不知道怎么回事,大概这年代的寒霜人都比较一惊一乍吧,”艾登挠了挠光溜溜的脑袋,“要不我去跟手下说一声？让他们下去把那些在附近围观的都赶走？” „...... Does not need,” Tyrian to think, shakes the head, „father's instruction do not have the conflict with the City-State aspect again, this tense time, left again exciting these startled for the first time Cold Frost people.” “……不必,”提瑞安想了想,摇摇头,“父亲的吩咐是不要再跟城邦方面起冲突,这种紧张时刻,还是别再刺激这些一惊一乍的寒霜人了。” Eden shrugs: „Good, since is the order of old Captain.” 艾登耸了耸肩:“好吧,既然是老船长的命令。” „Everyone condition how?” Tyrian in silent also asked a moment later suddenly, „I meant, the second issue of sailors.” “大家状态怎么样？”提瑞安则在沉默片刻之后突然又问道,“我是说,第二期的水手们。” „...... Yeah, after half a century, returned to this familiar place once again,” Eden sighed gently, sighs with emotion was saying, „ said on the ship a piece of tranquil that is false —— in each cabin is basically discussing now this approaching shore, was discussing matter that the Cold Frost navy dealt with again, was affected including an issue of sailor, was discussing with them. “……哎,时隔半个世纪,又一次回到了这个熟悉的地方,”艾登轻轻叹了口气,感慨着说道,“说船上一片平静那是假的——现在基本上每个舱室里都在讨论这次靠岸,在讨论跟寒霜海军再次打交道的事情,连一期的水手都受了影响,在跟他们一起讨论。 „Some people anticipated, some people conflict, but more people are vacant, how because previously everyone never had to conceive this day to be a situation, but...... everyone will support your decision, they are waiting for your order.” “有人期待,有人抵触,但更多的人是茫然,因为此前大家都从来没设想过这一天会是怎么个情况,不过……所有人都会支持您的决定,他们在等待您的命令。” Tyrian has not spoken suddenly, but before the mind as if appeared, in that on the bridge saw. 提瑞安一时间没有说话,只是脑海中仿佛又浮现出了之前在舰桥上看到的那一幕。 The queen orders —— „to defend Cold Frost” after half a century of second. 女王时隔半个世纪的第二道命令——“保卫寒霜”。 That real? That is the strength that the queen leaves behind, is the pure illusion? 那到底是不是真的？那是女王留下的力量,还是单纯的幻觉？ This seems to be unimportant. 这似乎已经不重要了。 The queen once ordering let the Sea Mist fleet far away from the Cold Frost main island, but nowadays, he led the fleet to return to here, perhaps...... queen's past order, really for present this day. 女王曾下令让海雾舰队远离寒霜本岛,而现如今,他又带领着舰队回到了这里,或许……女王当年的命令,真的就是为了如今这一天。 „No matter how said, we come this,” Tyrian shouted the tone gently, the gas that in the oronasals exhales concentrates the white fog in the cold night, „here commander wants to entertain ‚ally’, good, I also truly should go to greet with them.” “不管怎么说,我们来此一趟,”提瑞安轻轻呼了口气,口鼻间呼出的气体在寒夜中凝成白雾,“这里的指挥官想招待一下‘战友’,也好,我也确实应该去跟他们打个招呼。” „Wants me to accompany you to go?” “要我陪您去吗？” „Un, and has several fellow —— that again has good manners the number must reach an agreement with them ahead of time, this time, we are not fight.” “嗯,另外再多带几个懂礼数的家伙——要提前跟他们说好,这一次,我们不是来打架的。” „Good,” Eden nods, then could not bear asked that „volume, what the entourage also did have to request?” “好,”艾登点点头,接着又忍不住多问了一句,“额,随行人员还有什么要求吗？” Tyrian thinks: „...... The face is quite complete, the four limbs connection on the torso, walks does not fall components outward ‚’ —— to press your standard to come, wearing the clothes can block most holes on the line.” 提瑞安想了想:“……正脸比较完整的,四肢连接在躯干上的,走路不往外掉‘零件’的——就按你的标准来吧,穿上衣服能挡住大部分洞就行。” „Good, Captain.” “好的,船长。” ...... …… In the harbor defense office, protects commander-in-chief Lister to reorganize the own uniform/subdue and medal for the last time. 港口防务办公室内,防护总指挥官李斯特正在最后一次整理自己的制服和勋章。 He has to see the magnificent scene, even if as a well-trained career military, he will still feel uneasy to „scene that” then must face. 他并非没有见过大场面,但即便身为一名训练有素的职业军人,他也不免会对接下来要面对的“场面”感到一丝忐忑不安。 It is not because the scene is too big, because unprecedented. 不是因为场面太大,而是因为前所未有。 He must meet —— after continuing 50 years of confrontation and hostility of the leader of Sea Mist fleet, in the past „” rebel of that from City-State the fleet returned to here. 他要与海雾舰队的领袖见面——在持续了五十年的对峙与敌意之后,当年那支从城邦中“叛逃”的舰队又回到了这里。 Now in City-State many places were still in chaos, missing of Magistrate made the city hall badly battered, but under the so chaotic situation, he still arranged this special reception even. 如今城邦中许多地方仍然是一片混乱,执政官的失踪让市政厅焦头烂额,但即便在如此混乱的局势下,他仍然安排了这场特殊的接待。 Because he knows, present Cold Frost could not have experienced any more further damage, no matter how that side the city hall officials and advisers think, he must stand firm —— that fearful Ghost Spirit fleet, if, merely is if, if must with that „big pirate” reconciliation, at this moment perhaps also be the only opportunity. 因为他知道,如今的寒霜已经经历不起任何更进一步的损伤,不管市政厅那边的官员和顾问们怎么想,他都必须把那支可怕的幽灵舰队稳住——如果,仅仅是如果,如果要跟那位“大海盗”和解的话,此刻恐怕也是唯一的机会。 Ties the last knot, Lister breathes a sigh of relief gently. 系上最后一枚扣子,李斯特轻轻舒了口气。 Afterward he lowers the head, takes up to represent the new medal of general post from the table, is gazing at the above each trace tranquilly. 随后他低下头,从桌上拿起代表着将军职衔的新胸章,平静地注视着上面的每一道纹路。 „...... Firing line promotion...... also good, must some people go against.” “……火线晋升啊……也好,总得有人顶上。” He raised the head, to the mirror, is fixing the medal on the clothes carefully. 他抬起头,对着镜子,仔仔细细地将胸章固定在衣服上。
