#1681: Turret and statue

Under the direction of ghost, Ivan walks toward the castle thoroughly. 在鬼魂的指引下,艾文向城堡深入走去。 Marcus walks while to Ivan introduced that here history, is continuing the exterior decorative style, the Ravenclaw castle internal structure and decoration are quite complex and luxurious. 马库斯一边走一边向艾文介绍这里的历史,延续着外部装饰风格,拉文克劳城堡内部结构与装饰相当的复杂、奢华。 Different from Hogwarts castle that simple transparent architectural composition, enters the entrance hall to see to connect the central staircase of each floor corridor, the Ravenclaw castle is resembling the labyrinth to be ordinary, where door many do not know, channel and staircase. 不同于霍格沃茨城堡那种简单明了的建筑布局,进入门厅就能看到连接着各个楼层过道的中央楼梯,拉文克劳城堡内部好像迷宫一般,好多不知道通向哪里的房门、通道和楼梯。 The corridor to is extending in all directions, has entered to the profound darkness. 走廊向四面八方延伸着,一直进入到深邃的黑暗中。 In castle very quiet, seems having the mysterious aura including the air, although many actual decoration goods already no longer, but under the function of magic, past illusory image one by one at present appear in Ivan, reappeared this castle past magnificence. 城堡内十分的静谧,似乎连空气中都带着神秘的气息,虽然许多实际装饰物品早已不再,但在魔法的作用下,昔日的幻影一一在艾文眼前浮现,重现这座城堡往日的辉煌。 If not consider in these illusory images often flood the blue magic light, they as if do not have what difference with the real goods. 要是不考虑这些幻影上不时泛起的蓝色魔法光影,它们似乎和真的物品没有什么区别。 If Ivan also has any question to the entire item matter, that was this magic of letting the ghost and goods reappears. 如果说艾文对整件事还有什么疑问的话,那就是这个让鬼魂和物品重现的魔法了。 Without a doubt, was the Ravenclaw's royal crown initiated the magic, but Ivan not too clear principle. 毫无疑问,是拉文克劳的冠冕启动了魔法,但艾文并不太清楚这其中的原理。 In his opinion, this magic is very inconceivable. 在他看来,这个魔法很不可思议。 Said that is the illusion, is not, the most minimum ghosts have the entity, they can according to oneself idea motion, moreover the most essential point, wants to complete this scale the magic to need huge magic power, do these energies come from where? 说是幻象吧,又不全是,最起码鬼魂们是有实体的,他们可以按照自己的想法行动,而且最关键的一点,想要完成这种规模的魔法需要巨大的魔力,这些能量又来自于哪里？ This definitely is not royal crown strength, Ravenclaw's royal crown not that strong magic power. 这肯定不是冠冕的力量,拉文克劳的冠冕没有那么强的魔力。 Ivan has been having doubts, ghost as if not clear this matter, until he walks into the Ravenclaw castle, felt that surrounding magic power becomes more active, a formidable energy is attracting him in the castle central place, there is the source of entire magic. 艾文一直在疑惑,鬼魂似乎也不清楚这件事,直到他走入拉文克劳城堡,才感觉到周围的魔力变得更加活跃,一股强大的能量在城堡中心位置吸引着他,那里才是整个魔法的源头。 The Ravenclaw's royal crown initiated this magic, the magic itself on castle central place anything. 拉文克劳的冠冕只是启动了这个魔法,魔法本身在城堡中心位置什么东西上面。 „Wait/Etc., Marcus, this direction......” Ivan felt, points at a corridor to ask, „what does there have?” “等等,马库斯,这个方向……”艾文感觉了一下,指着一条走廊问道,“那里有什么？” „That direction is central turret, the master, the library there!” Marcus said that „please toward this walking, this corridor can not to the central turret, have secret passage in the banquet hall three buildings directly, otherwise we must circle a great-circle toward Xi Tower.” “那个方向是中心塔楼,主人,藏书室就在那儿！”马库斯说,“请往这面走,这条走廊并不能直接通向中心塔楼,在宴会厅三楼有一条密道,不然我们要往西塔绕一大圈。” „Can't pass through directly?” Ivan asked that he thought this castle design strange of. “不能直接穿过去吗？”艾文问道,他觉得这座城堡设计的很怪。 Really strange, has simpler direct channel rejection not to need, to be bent on having obviously to go round the sun to meet the moon construction complex of such. 真的很奇怪,明明有更简单直接的通道舍弃不用,偏要舍近求远建造的这么复杂。 The key looks like in Ivan, such construction does not have what significance. 关键在艾文看来,这么建造并没有什么意义。 „Yes, besides a few secret passage, only then five tall Tower and central turret connect, we must wind for a long time to meet very much from here.” Marcus said that „initial designer has arranged the magic in the castle, therefore the internal structure of castle by the formal design of magic arts rune, many channels strictly was being limited by the magic, each arrived here person not to make clear the direction newly, but you, if lived here for a long time will have been familiar......” “是的,除了少数几条密道外,只有五座高塔和中心塔楼相连接,我们从这里要绕上很久才会到。”马库斯解释说,“最初的设计者在城堡中布置了魔法,所以城堡的内部结构是以法术符文的形式设计的,许多通道被魔法严格限制着,每一个新来到这里的人都搞不清楚方向,不过您要是在这里住久了就会熟悉……” „Un, is the magic that the ancestors of Ravenclaw family arrange what?” “嗯,拉文克劳家族的祖先布置的魔法是什么？” „Is formidable defense magic arts, it is said can resist the intruder, I not clear concrete am any magic, because when the Ravenclaw family besets with a crisis will use this magic.” Marcus said that „in fact, according to my knowledge, whom never having to use this magic, this matter possibly is only the rumor. You also saw, when family besets with a crisis, this so-called magic has not played the role, the great power of god of death is not the magic of mortal can resist.” “是一个强大的防御法术,据说可以抵抗入侵者,我也不清楚具体是什么魔法,因为只有在拉文克劳家族陷入危机时才会使用这个魔法。”马库斯说,“事实上,据我了解,从来没有谁用过这个魔法,这件事可能只是传言。您也见到了,在家族真的陷入危机时,这个所谓的魔法并没有起到作用,死神的强大力量不是凡人的魔法能够抵抗的。” „Graciousness......” Ivan nodded careless. “恩……”艾文漫不经心地点了点头。 He thought that this magic did not have Marcus to say was so simple. 他觉得,这个魔法没有马库斯说的那么简单。 First did not say whether defends magic, can let these many ghosts and once pictures reappears this point is very marvelous. 先不说是否是防御魔法,能让这么多鬼魂和曾经的景象重现这一点就很奇妙。 Ivan has been interested in the central turret in castle, besides the book collection outside, what secret there also has. 艾文对城堡的中心塔楼更感兴趣了,除了藏书室外,那里还有着什么样的秘密。 Under the direction of ghost, Ivan arrives at banquet hall three along the white marble staircase upwardly. 在鬼魂的指引下,艾文沿着白色大理石楼梯向上来到宴会厅三层。 The entire three spandrel wall wall completely hollowed out dangerous windows substitute, can see outside castle from here the side garden. 整个三层的侧墙壁全部被镂空的悬窗所取代,从这里能够看到外面城堡里侧的花园。 The garden clamps between castle outer layer and main turrets, among the subtilises scatters the statue that many shapes are varying. 花园夹在城堡外层和主塔楼之间,枯草间散落着许多形状各异的雕像。 Ivan stopped once again, he looks at the central turret that is reaching to the sky, the vision transfers to the statue in garden quickly. 艾文又一次停了下来,他望着那高耸入云的中心塔楼,目光很快就移到花园中的雕像上面。 The shapes of these statues, all are the shape the monster that is difficult to describe ....... 这些雕像的形状,全都是形状很难描述的怪物……. For example nearby the alcove that resembles myth biology „beautiful Dusha” human form statue, the hair of this woman is comprised of the innumerable snakes, its body is twisting, divides is not clear is this, the damage that because the rock long-time decency causes, its length eight arms, below is also being the snake tail same body. 比如亭子附近那个好像神话生物“美杜莎”的人形雕像,这个女人的头发是由无数条蛇组成的,它的身体扭曲着,分不清楚本来就是这样,还是因为岩石长久的风化而造成的损伤,它的身上长着八个手臂,下面也是蛇尾一样的身体。 This strange living thing, Ivan has not seen, it looks like the product of some dark magic transformation failure. 这种古怪的生物,艾文从来没有见过,它就像是某种黑魔法改造失败的产物。 Although has not seen, but is looking at the statue, Ivan has an inexplicable familiar feeling. 虽然没有见过,但望着雕像,艾文却有一种莫名的熟悉感。 The image not completely is consistent, but he almost thinks immediately before this is, in the evil god(s) divine creative force that in the Centaur(s) temple sees, these monsters that but saw at that time are the design of carving on wall, the present these statues appear three-dimensional and vivid. 形象并不完全一致,可他几乎马上就想到这是自己之前在马人庙宇中见到的邪神造物,不过当时看到的那些怪物是雕刻在墙壁上的图案,眼前的这些雕像则显得更加的立体、生动。 Are these statues the evil god(s) divine creative force? 这些雕像是邪神造物吗？ If yes, that matter as if became more and more interesting. 如果是,那事情似乎变得越来越有意思了。 „There is the central turret, the master, the summit of group star...... It seems very grand, is?” Marcus thinks that Ivan in looking at central turret, introduced with the expression proudly, „turret enough over a thousand feet high, it was highest has constructed, you who I knew definitely are unable to imagine stand overlook the picture of entire territory above, particularly crawled to most peak, as if placed oneself in the group stars......” “那里就是中央塔楼,主人,群星之巅......它看上去很雄伟,是不是？”马库斯以为艾文在看中央塔楼,用自豪地语气介绍道,“塔楼足足有上千英尺高,它是我知道的最高的建筑了,你肯定无法想象站在上面俯视整个领地的画面,尤其是爬到最顶端,就仿佛置身于群星之间……” „Un, is very great.” Ivan nodded, appreciates to say insincerely that reaches to the sky the person of construction in muggle(s) these regarding the custom, the altitude of this turret is actually not anything, but considered that the turret construction is before 1000 or will be earlier, at that time truly was a construction marvelously. “嗯,是很了不起。”艾文点了点头,言不由衷地赞赏道,对于习惯于麻瓜那些高耸入云建筑的人而言,这座塔楼的高度其实并不算什么,不过考虑到塔楼建筑是在1000年前或者更早的时候,在当时确实是一栋奇迹般的建筑。 But Ivan will not feel because of this altitude shocking, naturally he will not refute Marcus. 但艾文不会因为这点高度而感到震惊,当然他也不会反驳马库斯。 One millennium ago ghost, many understanding and world outlooks of Marcus also stayed in the middle ages, with him said that perhaps the matter of modern society will frighten him. 作为一个千年前的鬼魂,马库斯的很多认识和世界观还停留在中世纪,和他说现代社会的事情恐怕会吓到他的。 Like Hogwarts the history of magic teacher Professor Binns, he totally could not accept any modern thing. 就像霍格沃茨的魔法史教师宾斯教授,他就完全接受不了任何现代事物。 Any and he teaches the curriculum irrelevant matter and news, as if will make him be frightened. 任何和他所教授课程无关的事情和消息,似乎都会让他受到惊吓。 After listening the ghost was praising several central turrets, Ivan asked that issue of concern, „who below garden are these strange statues construct?” 听着鬼魂赞美了几句中央塔楼后,艾文问出自己关心的问题,“下面花园里面那些奇怪的雕像是谁建造的？”
