A16 Manor, leaning hall. A16庄园,偏厅。 Greg just wants to open mouth, out of the window then flashes through together the extremely dazzling light suddenly, later is the giant sound and violent vibration sweeps across. 格雷格刚想张开嘴,窗外便忽然闪过一道极其刺眼的光明,随后是巨大的响声和猛烈的震动席卷而来。 „ーー bang ーー” “——轰隆——” Shortly, as if the stratum the collapse is ordinary, the construction of manor inclined downward past 1 : 00. 顷刻间,仿佛地层都在塌陷一般,庄园的建筑都往下倾斜了过去一点。 Greg in same place has not responded dull, was thrown down by the inertia hauling directly on the ground, the retinue guard who who comes behind these follow closely also entirely flushed, was fallen scattered about, the flurried steward was fallen actually awoke, crawls to yell to try to keep the order, the scene was once chaotic. 格雷格呆愣在原地还没有反应过来,就被惯性牵引直接摔倒在地上,后面那些紧随而来的的仆从护卫也统统冲了进来,被摔得七零八落,慌乱中管家倒是被摔醒了,爬起来叫喊着试图维持秩序,场面一度混乱。 „Calm, calm! Master, the master are you all right?! Outside this had anything......” “都冷静,冷静！老爷,老爷你没事吧？！外面这是发生了什么……” The loyal and devoted steward wipes the blood on face, first flushed to support the master. 忠心耿耿的管家一抹脸上的血,先冲了过来扶住自家老爷。 Ji Bonong is somewhat at a loss for words looks at the also flurried steward, cannot help but shakes the head, patted the hand of opposite party, the sinking sound said: „All right, probably was the earthquake.” 季博农有些语塞地看着比自己还慌乱的管家,不由得摇了摇头,拍了拍对方的手,沉声道:“没事,大概是地震了。” He looks the ray that outside subsides gradually, own spirit response vigilance was still paining generally pit-a-pat the beat. 他看着外面渐渐平息的光芒,自身的灵感警觉仍在隐隐作痛一般地突突跳动。 Although the train of thought somewhat is chaotic, but he looks in the Boss Lin hand that to fluctuate Bell Rotatoria of big half-turn, on generally understands a moment ago exactly what happened. 虽然思绪还有些混乱,但是他看着林老板手中那波动了大半圈的钟轮虫,大抵上明白了刚才到底发生了什么事情。 The time by the reset, the entire space and time had been similar to the hour glass of reversal, started flowing again. 时间被重置,整个时空已经如同逆转的沙漏,再次开始了流动。 Although looks before has not distinguished, the sand that but flows no longer is the orders of original these sand, in other words, explodes, flash at present and sways seems like with several seconds ago picture seamless engagements, but in fact, they have been in the reset later time line. 虽然看上去和之前并没有区别,但流下来的沙子已经不再是原来那些沙子的顺序,也就是说,眼前爆炸、闪光和摇晃看似和数秒前的画面无缝衔接,但实际上,他们已经处于了重置之后的时间线上。 Ji Zhixiu is confused in the one side whole face, the subtle dizziness feeling just sat the roller coaster probably, felt the own present all probably same probably are also different. 季织绪在一旁满脸迷茫,微妙的眩晕感就好像刚坐完过山车,感觉自己眼前的一切好像一样又好像不一样。 She raised the head the crystal lamp that looks at to sway, the revolving field of vision superposes the entity. 她抬头看摇晃的水晶灯,旋转的视野重合成实体。 Before the time flows backwards the memory with swaying did the crystal chandelier start gradually to return to the own brain, Young Lady Ji to open the eye ーー time to flow backwards?! 时光倒流前的记忆随着摇晃的水晶吊灯开始逐渐回到自己的大脑,季大小姐睁大了眼睛——时光倒流？！ She turns the head suddenly, to line of sight of Ji Bonong. 她猛然转头,对上了季博农的视线。 The father and daughter look at each other one, felt a chill in the air of scalp tingles tacitly. 父女两人对视一眼,默契地感觉到了一种头皮发麻的寒意。 Before the time...... is not, that was held God Level that almost eats escapes finally by Boss Lin, laws that grasps? 时间……不就是之前那个被林老板抓住差点吃掉最后逃跑的神明级,所掌握的规则么？ Although does not know that had anything specifically, but can feel between both necessarily to relate probably, escaping of that God Level, perhaps from most starts is, until this moment that Boss Lin plans displays its final afterheat, becomes in the Boss Lin hand an important board game piece. 虽然不知道具体发生了什么,但是大概能感觉到两者之间必然有所联系,那个神明级的逃跑,恐怕从最开始就是林老板所计划的,直到这一刻才发挥出了其最后的余热,成为了林老板手中至关重要的一枚棋子。 Otherwise Boss Lin if at that time wants to kill that God Level directly, will not put the opposite party to walk. 否则林老板当时如果想直接杀死那个神明级,就绝不会放对方走啊。 But from intruding the person is Joseph disciple Greg, that decisive battle between corpse devouring cult and Tower of Secret Rites that a thousand-mile away former's facial expression response, this board game piece, affects! 而从闯入的人是约瑟夫的弟子格雷格,还有前者的神情反应来看,这枚棋子,影响的正是远在千里之外的尸食教与秘仪塔之间的那场大决战了！ This is what kind of boldness and might, uses God Level as the chess, next chessgame that uses entire Norzin as the checkerboard. 这是何等的魄力与伟力,以神明级为棋,下一场以整个诺金为棋盘的棋局。 The Ji Zhixiu breathing rapidly, hands and feet numb numb, is hard to return to normal the own mood. 季织绪呼吸急促,手脚都麻麻的,难以平复自己的心情。 After the earthquake wave crossed probably for dozens seconds, tranquil, outside also belongs to the murky darkness. 地震波大概过了几十秒之后平静了下来,外面也重新归于昏沉黑暗。 Lin Jie almost must ask stretch/open chair to worm one's way into, the good earthquake stops enough quickly, saved his face countenance in imminent danger, supports the first response after table, inspected hastily is gripped the tight desk clock by oneself a moment ago was whether perfect. 林介差点都要找张椅子钻进去了,还好地震停得够快,挽救了他岌岌可危的颜面,扶住桌子之后的第一反应,就是连忙检查刚才被自己攥紧的座钟是否完好无损。 „Hū......” “呼……” Lin Jie looked in begins to rotate the bell wheel that again slowly, the lovable small insect of that only creeping motion, relaxes greatly. 林介看着手里重新慢慢转动起来的钟轮,还有那只蠕动的可爱小虫子,大松了口气。 Has not gone bad fortunately, this thing estimated that enough bought several me...... 还好没坏,这玩意估计够买好几个我了…… „What, was the earthquake.” “什么啊,原来是地震了。” Lin Jie naturally leaves the immediate the table, patted the body's ash at will, a face sprinkles however the calm expression, probably that almost must drill the table a moment ago is not he, sobbed: „I also think that the big matter, as the saying goes, the big quake cannot escape, slightly shakes does not need to run, your life inexperienced.” 林介十分自然地离开紧靠的桌子,随意地拍了拍身上的灰,一脸洒然淡定的表情,好像刚才那个差点要钻桌子的不是他,唏嘘道:“我还以为多大的事儿呢,俗话说得好,大震跑不了,小震不用跑,你们还是生活经验不足啊。” „Oh.” He sighed, has turned head, looks to fall in Greg of ground, put out a hand to say with a smile: „Are you all right? So to be how irritable, the young people are too weak, looks me to look for me, wears quickly nervous, I will not run away.” “唉。”他叹了口气,扭过头去,看着摔在地上的格雷格,伸手笑道:“你没事吧？怎么这么急躁,年轻人还是太幼稚,来找我就来找我,着急忙慌的,我又不会跑掉。” „All right, I am all right......” “没事,我没事……” Greg sees that smile to be subconscious trembles, shakes the head desperately, stands hastily. 格雷格看见那笑容就下意识一哆嗦,拼命地摇头,连忙站起来。 „Is all right well.” Lin Jie shakes the head: „Right, you want to say that a moment ago what is coming?” “没事就好。”林介摇摇头:“对了,你刚才想说什么来着？” Greg opens mouth, the steward sees him immediately the vigilance, blocks said nearby Ji Bonong panic-stricken: „Is he, blocks him, do not make him come, he took the blade to threaten me also to knock down me a moment ago, Master, he possibly is not true Greg, but is an assassin!” 格雷格张了张嘴,那管家看见他顿时警觉起来,拦在季博农跟前惊恐道:“就是他,拦住他,不要让他过来,他刚才拿着刀威胁我还把我打晕了,老爷,他可能不是真正的格雷格,而是刺客！” These fall seven meat eight vegetarian servants having heard what was said immediately to quickly grasp the meaning of something, run over to prepare to overpower Greg, the scene is chaotic. 那些摔得七荤八素的仆人们闻言立刻一个激灵,跑过来准备制服格雷格,场面再次混乱起来。 Greg did not have slow the god to come, for a while feels helpless, although Lin Jie does not know that Greg made anything a moment ago, but is together during shortly he knows probably this should be a misunderstanding, then does not know whether to laugh or cry to come out to explain: „Steward mister you possibly misunderstood, he is looks my, moreover you who his child, how knocks down?” 格雷格还没缓过神来,一时不知所措,林介虽然不知道格雷格刚才做了什么,不过短暂相处之中他大概知道这应该是个误会,便哭笑不得地出来解释道:“管家先生你可能误会了,他是来找我的,而且他一个小孩子,怎么打晕的你？” The stewards were frightened before heavily, but regarding almost knife on own neck person naturally as before clear, categorical said/tunnel: „No! I am clear very much! Is he! Mr. Lin should not be deceived by him!” 管家之前被吓得不轻,但对于差点把刀子架在自己脖子上的人自然依旧清清楚楚,斩钉截铁地道:“不！我清楚得很！就是他！林先生你不要被他骗了！” Lin Jie shrugged, the vision that unavoidablily will seek help goes to this leaning hall true Master. 林介摊了摊手,不得已将求助的目光投向这偏厅真正的主人。 Ji Bonong stands to say hastily: „Sufficed, these two are our honored guests, this absolutely is only a misunderstanding, Albert, you were possibly dazzled, now you first go to the banquet place to comfort our guests.” 季博农连忙站出来道:“够了,这两位都是我们的贵客,这绝对只是一个误会罢了,艾伯特,你可能看花眼了,现在你先去宴会地点安抚一下我们的宾客们吧。” Albert steward is naturally impossible to refute the sovereign will, has to look at a field of vision Wragg, salutes, but stubborn said/tunnel: „Yes, Master, but...... the gentleman is not built on under the danger wall, I by the heart of my loyalty, requesting you with an holding the blade coexistence room.” 艾伯特管家自然不可能反驳自己宗主的意志,只好看了一眼格雷格,行礼但固执地道:“是,老爷,但……君子不立于危墙之下,我以我的忠诚之心,请求您不要和持刀者共处一屋。” Outside truly heard the screams of guest, the seems like sudden earthquake made many people receive frightening. 外面确实传来了众宾客的惊呼声,看来突如其来的地震让很多人受到了惊吓。 The banquet is halted at once. 宴会一时之间被迫暂停。 Ji Zhixiu walks toward the Ji Bonong small sound said: „Father...... we also first go out, outside guest also needs to arrange.” 季织绪走过来朝季博农小声道:“父亲……我们也先出去吧,外面的宾客还需要打点。” Ji Bonong looked at a whole face anxious Greg, nods knowingly: „Was sorry, Mr. Lin, I cannot accompany.” 季博农看了一眼满脸焦急的格雷格,心领神会地点了点头:“抱歉了,林先生,恕我不能多陪。” Lin Jie showed certainly the understanding: „You do as you please, if under can come back to tell me a moment ago what happened is better.” 林介当然表示理解:“您请便,如果等下能回来告诉我刚才发生了什么事情就更好了。” In what...... you are not clearest? 发生了什么……您不是最清楚的么？ Ji Bonong cannot bear the unstated criticism in the heart, but in the surface must maintain the humble smile: „I will find the person to confirm the special details, when you and Greg chatted, first informed you surely.” 季博农忍不住在心中腹诽,不过面上还是得保持谦卑的微笑:“我会去找人确认具体情况的,等您和格雷格聊完,必定第一时间告知您。” With the Ji Family departure of father and daughter as well as steward, the servants also follow one after another, in the room was only left over Greg and Lin Jie. 随着季家父女以及管家的离开,仆人们也陆续跟上,房间里只剩下了格雷格和林介。 Lin Jie released a long breath, sat, dust that then on the small desk clock in wipe contaminates subconsciously gently. 林介长出一口气,重新坐了下来,然后下意识地轻轻擦拭手里的小座钟上面沾染的灰尘。 „Ok, said that is anything makes you so flustered, frightened this stewards.” “好了,说吧,是什么事让你这么慌慌张张的,把管家都吓成这样了。” Lin Jie felt oneself as an Sir, cannot show one's ignorance before the little friend, clears throat, disguises very calmly the supple sound said: „No matter comes across anything, should not be flustered, anything can have the favorable turn, calm is not necessarily effective, but nervous certainly useless, I had said before, if you come across the difficulty or the issue, can tell me.” 林介觉得自己身为大人,不能在小朋友面前露怯,清了清嗓子,假装十分从容地柔声道:“不管遇到什么事情,都不要慌张,任何事情都是可以有转机的,冷静不一定管用,但是慌一定没用,我之前就说过,如果你遇到困难或者问题,都可以告诉我。” „As the saying goes, the ship arrives at the bridgehead nature to be straight, is right? Certain help/gang that I can help.” “俗话说,船到桥头自然直嘛,对不对？我能帮的一定帮。” The Lin Jie look looks earnestly to Greg. 林介眼神认真地看向格雷格。 The youngster aristocrat recovered at this time thoroughly, but was also ignorant, he looks at the direction of out of the window, remembered seems to be changed time, still as well as was at teacher under the unknown state, the stutter dances with joy does not know how should say: „To...... how, but...... I and you............ sorry a moment ago............” 少年贵族这时候彻底回过神来了,但也更加懵了,他看着窗外的方向,想起似乎被改变了一遍的时间,以及仍旧处于未知状态下的老师,结结巴巴地手舞足蹈不知道该怎么说:“对……但是……我、你……刚才……对不起……怎么……” Lin Jie comforting said: „Do not worry, slowly said.” 林介安抚道:“不要着急,慢慢说。” Greg took a deep breath, just the opens the mouth, the palm broadcast the sound of vibration suddenly, he then discovered that soaks the full sweat the palm also closely to pinch Communication Apparatus, he has a scare, lowering the head looks at the discovery unexpectedly note is Tajikistan. 格雷格深吸一口气,刚刚张口,手心忽然传来震动的声音,他这才发现浸满汗水的手心还紧紧地捏着通讯仪,他吓了一跳,低头一看发现竟然备注是“塔”。 Is personnel who Tower of Secret Rites conducts the urgent notice specially! 是秘仪塔专门进行紧急通知的人员！ Was could it be the fight of teacher has the result finally?! 难道是老师的战斗终于有结果了？！ „Sorry!” “抱歉！” Greg excitedly to leaping to jump, bows toward Lin Jie, after the latter agrees, goes out of the leaning hall from another side door anxiously, puts through ーー in entrance not far away hastily 格雷格激动到腾地跳起来,朝林介鞠了一躬,在后者首肯之后,焦急地从另一边的小门走出偏厅,在门口不远处连忙接通—— „Probationary Knight, Greg.” “见习骑士,格雷格阁下。” The opposite broadcasts not really familiar sound. 对面传来不甚熟悉的声音。 It is not Winston Section Chief. 不是温士顿科长。 Greg immediately thump. 格雷格心里顿时咯噔一下。 Youngster sinking sound said: „Is I.” 少年沉声道:“是我。” „Your Quest cancelled.” “你的任务取消了。” „What? Why?!” “什么？为什么？！” The indifferent sound as if judged some result, Greg such as was struck by lightning, shivering said/tunnel: „Joseph old...... brilliance Knight now how?” 冷漠的声音仿佛宣判了某种结果,格雷格如遭雷击,颤抖地道:“约瑟夫老……光辉骑士现在怎么样了？” „At present the entire battlefield is covered by great quantity ether, our personnel cannot pass in and out, is unable to give your accurate answer.” “目前整个战场被巨量的以太覆盖,我们的人员不能进出,无法给你准确的答案。” Greg was shocked, looks to window at the same time, raised to look out into the distance the window curtains, saw that day spatial on gap, a heart sank the valley, said: „Result that they fight?” 格雷格愣住了,看向一边的窗户,将窗帘掀起来远眺,看见了那天空上的缺口,一颗心沉到了谷底,又道:“那他们战斗的结果呢？” „From the Ether Monitoring final demonstration result, should perish together, must wait for the Logistics Branch feedback of investigation specifically.” “从以太监测器的最后显示结果来看,应该是同归于尽,具体要等正在现场勘查的后勤科反馈。” Greg long time has not spoken, as if stagnated same place. 格雷格半晌没说话,仿佛凝滞在了原地。 Should? 应该？ „Warm...... Winston Section Chief?” Long time, Greg deeply attracts two tone adjustment breath, so as to avoid oneself are thoroughly rude: „Before was he has been contacting with me, how......” “温……温士顿科长呢？”良久,格雷格深吸两口气调整呼吸,免得自己彻底失态:“之前一直是他在联系我,怎么……” „He the place situated in battlefield center, was affected probably, at present is missing.” Opposite tone has not fluctuated: „Ok, Probationary Knight, you asked were many enough, you as the Joseph disciple, if Joseph had the news we to be able the earliest possible time to inform you, but now, to prevent the Wilde possible plot, please finish your Quest, and took over new Quest ーー” “他位于战场较中心的地方,大概被波及到了,目前下落不明。”对面的语气没有波动:“好了,见习骑士,你问的够多了,你作为约瑟夫的弟子,如果约瑟夫有消息我们会第一时间通知你,但是现在,为了阻止王尔德可能的阴谋,请结束你的任务,并且接手新的任务——” „Kills Charlotte.” “杀死夏洛蒂。” Greg hangs Communication Apparatus. 格雷格挂掉通讯仪。 In the heart had an intense suspicion suddenly. 心中突然产生了一种强烈的怀疑。 Impossible...... is not not possible, since Boss Lin meddled, showed that he responded certainly to their request, intended to rescue Joseph, possibly was not „perishing together” fate. 不可能……不可能的,林老板既然插手了,就证明他一定是回应了他们的请求,出手救了约瑟夫,就不可能是“同归于尽”的下场。 But what the issue is biggest, Joseph to prevent Wilde is uncertain of one's fate, Tower of Secret Rites lets his disciple, when situation not yet bright , to continue more dangerous Quest. 但问题最大的是,约瑟夫为了阻止王尔德生死未卜,秘仪塔却让他的弟子在情况尚未明朗的时候,继续更加危险的任务。 This in...... uses his hatred radically. 这根本就是在……利用他的仇恨。 ーー —— Too terrifying...... was obtaining the latest information, after all completely duplicate/restores plate that had a moment ago, the Ji Zhixiu whole body trembles, does not know that is because excited or frightened, cannot bear covers the own mouth with the hand. 太恐怖了……在得到最新情报,把刚才发生的一切全部复盘了一遍之后,季织绪浑身发抖,不知道是因为兴奋还是恐惧,忍不住用手捂住自己的嘴巴。 Although she has not witnessed fight between that God Level at the scene, however in a moment ago, actually saw with one's own eyes Boss Lin to move the Bell Rotatoria indicator. 虽然她并没有在现场见证那场神明级之间的战斗,但是在刚才,却亲眼看到了林老板拨动钟轮虫的指针。 According to Greg to/clashes the expression that on the time face is anxious to cry quickly to judge, at least before the time flows backwards, Joseph in war absolutely situated in downside, even may be very dying immediately. 根据格雷格冲进来时候脸上急得快哭出来的表情可以判断出,至少在时光倒流前,约瑟夫在战局当中绝对是处于不利的一面,甚至很可能马上就要死了。 However now, the situation turned unknown. 然而现在,情况就变成未知了。 Before they have witnessed such, that God Level operation time flowed backwards at that time, is the pure time flows backwards, without interference of external force, all will return to the original position. 如同之前他们见证过的那样,当时那个神明级操纵时光倒流的时候,就是单纯的时光倒流,假如没有外力的干涉,一切只是会回到原本的位置罢了。 In other words, if Boss Lin wants to affect the war, the pure flowing backwards time is unable completely to change the result. 也就是说,如果林老板想要影响战局,单纯的倒流时间是无法彻底改变结局的。 Therefore, that God Level Transcendent is Boss Lin bleeds off intentionally, to let It, when this specific, huge laws strength of death divulging , to promote the Destiny wheel disk, looks like small butterflies that creates the storm. 所以,那个神明级的超凡者是林老板故意放走的,就是为了让祂在这个特定的时候,以死亡泄露的庞大规则力量,来推动命运的轮盘,就像是造成风暴的一只小小蝴蝶。 But during this process, the most fearful place is, Boss Lin unexpectedly the clarity that the action path of opposite party calculates, not only got rid of the opposite party thoroughly also controlled Wilde and Destiny of Joseph these two people conveniently. 而在这过程当中,最可怕的地方在于,林老板竟然把对方的行动轨迹都算的清清楚楚,不仅把对方彻底干掉还顺手操控了王尔德和约瑟夫这两个人的命运。 From the beginning, since he goes out of bookstore...... not, from Ji Zhixiu stemming from the selfishness decided invited him to attend the banquet time, or was earlier, was Andrew sent out the Bell Rotatoria instance, was with the understanding of Wilde and Joseph? In brief, all these already during the plan of Boss Lin! 从一开始,从他走出书店……不,从季织绪出于私心决定邀请他来参加宴会的时候,或者更早,是安德鲁的送出钟轮虫的瞬间,还是和王尔德与约瑟夫的认识？总之,这一切就已经都在林老板的计划之中了！ Fearful, is only thinks to feel the person of high status thought of sufficiently dreading, cannot guess with the idea of mortal. 何等可怕,光是想想就觉得足以畏惧的高位者思维,根本不能用凡人的想法来揣测。 „Young Lady Ji?” “季大小姐？” A familiar name, has a scare Ji Zhixiu, she turns around immediately, seeing in Lin Jie to take Bell Rotatoria to close from the leaning hall, but also is greeting toward her. 一声熟悉的称呼,把季织绪吓了一跳,她立刻转身,看见林介手里拿着钟轮虫正从偏厅关上门出来,还在朝她打招呼。 „Forest and Boss Lin......” Ji Zhixiu has to plant to do the misdemeanor to be stressed package of afraid feelings, crampedly covering the hand of face is putting down, bringing back corners of the mouth curve diligently flatting: „How you came out, what matter has to tell?” “林、林老板……”季织绪有种做坏事被抓包的心虚感觉,局促地把捂着脸的手放下,把勾起的嘴角弧度努力压平:“您怎么出来了,有什么事吩咐吗？” The vision actually cannot help but transferred to that Bell Rotatoria body, the body shivered slightly. „It‘s nothing...... suddenly thinks, you forgot to take away the gift a moment ago, is really, how delivered also to be able in my hand.” 目光却不由自主地移到了那钟轮虫的身上,身躯微微颤抖。“没什么……就是突然想起来,刚才你忘了拿走礼物了,真的是,都送出去了怎么还能在我手上呢。” Lin Jie holds up the hand of Ji Zhixiu, the Bell Rotatoria stopper to the Ji Zhixiu icy cold small hand, smiles was saying: „Visited me to demonstrate a moment ago, should not be afraid? You looked, it is not truly fearful, even is very clever.” 林介拉起季织绪的手,将钟轮虫塞到季织绪冰凉的小手里,微笑着说道:“看过我刚才的示范,应该不害怕了吧？你看,它确实一点也不可怕,甚至还挺乖的。”
