The atmosphere one froze, wanted on the cold several points compared with the northern cold weather. 气氛一下就冻住了,比北地寒冷的天气还要冷上几分。 Jeremy hangs in the midair, opened six wings, is looking at each other with Richie silently. Two people refuse to budge. 杰勒米悬在半空中,撑开了六翼,与里奇默默对视着。两个人僵持不下。 Wears the armor, outside the armor also binds Jones of thick cotton-wadded jacket to stand in the Richie side. The light white fog flutters from the slit of armor mask. 穿着盔甲,盔甲外面还裹着厚厚棉袄的琼斯就站在里奇的身旁。淡淡的白雾从盔甲面罩的缝隙里飘荡出来。 „Do not reject that quickly.” Jeremy smiles lightly, said in a soft voice: „We can your enough consideration time, naturally, very not be definitely long. We hope that you understand two points. First, we are not exerting pressure on you, we are seeking a means solution this issue properly, maintains the balance on Celts continent. Means balanced can avoid the war, avoids the casualties, this conforms to your father lich king Gray thought that Gregory until now advocates. Meanwhile, the truce can also not be unconditionally. You can request a black dragon clan to give up originally the control to Gustav. Even makes them use another way to compensate you, is not not possible. So long as they can agree. This suggestion is actually rich.” “不要拒绝得那么快。”杰勒米淡淡笑了笑,轻声说道:“我们可以给您充足的考虑时间,当然,肯定也不会很长。我们希望您了解两点。一,我们并不是在对您施压,我们只是在寻求一个妥善的办法解决这个问题,维持凯尔特斯大陆上的平衡。平衡意味着可以避免战争,避免伤亡,这符合您的父亲巫妖王格雷・格鲁格鲁一直以来倡导的思想。同时,停战也可以不是无条件的。你们可以要求黑龙一族放弃原本对古斯塔夫的控制。甚至让他们用另一种方式补偿你们,也不是不可能。只要他们能同意。这个建议其实非常丰厚。” „Another we hope the point that you understand is, if had the war with no other choice, this will not be the war of another Port Salted Fish. Because, holy spirit has prepared worst. We do not hope that Celts falls into your hand, that means that we will lose it forever, with destroys it cannot have any difference.” “另一个我们希望您了解的点是,如果在不得已的情况下发生了战争,这将不会是另一次咸鱼港之战。因为,圣灵已经做好了最坏的准备。我们不希望凯尔特斯落入您的手中,那意味着我们将永远失去它,跟将它毁灭不会有任何区别。” Richie is standing motionlessly, a hand according to sword hilt. 里奇一动不动地站着,一只手按在剑柄上。 Looks the direction that a gold dragon clan is, Jeremy then said: „I this information transmit to your ally, hope that you can sit the discussion together, draws up an ideal solution. No one wants to arrive the last step, not? Three days later, I will come again, hopes that can obtain a satisfying answer.” 回望金龙一族所在的方向,杰勒米接着说道:“我会将这个消息传递给您的盟友,希望你们能一起坐下来探讨,拿出一个理想的解决方案。谁都不想走到最后一步,不是吗？三天之后,我会再来,希望能得到一个令人满意的答复。” „Does not use, I can tell you now, I reject!” Richie replied indignantly. “不用了,我现在就可以告诉你,我拒绝！”里奇气愤地答道。 „Those words, do not reject that quickly. We give your sufficient time consideration. Wishing you are happy.” “还是那句话,不要拒绝得那么快。我们给您充足的时间考虑。祝您愉快。” Saying, Jeremy is with smile on the face, that form disappeared slowly. 说着,杰勒米面带微笑,那身影缓缓地消失了。 black dragon of distant place poked head to open the eye to look around from the summit of dragon, that appearance, seemed like to Richie and Jeremy discussed anything knew nothing. 远处的黑龙们从龙之巅上探出头来睁大了眼睛张望,那模样,看上去对里奇和杰勒米谈了什么一无所知。 ...... …… „Cracks a joke, they want to hit that to project on the bottom!” “开什么玩笑,他们想打那就打到底呀！” „Whom have we feared? We have the soul box in any case, can they unable to find?” “我们怕过谁吗？反正我们有魂匣,他们能找得到吗？” „We can fight eternal with them!” “我们可以跟他们战斗到永恒！” „Is!” “就是就是！” Knew that this news, lich are filled with righteous indignation. 得知这个消息,巫妖们一个个义愤填膺。 In the atmosphere of this being filled with righteous indignation, Jones braved one suddenly: „But Richie does not have the soul box.” 就在这一个个义愤填膺的气氛中,琼斯忽然冒了一句:“可是里奇没有魂匣。” Immediately, everyone looked toward Richie and Jones. lich one was peaceful. 顿时,所有人都朝着里奇和琼斯望了过来。巫妖们一下都安静了。 „I did not mind!” Richie said categorically: „To take revenge to the father, even if wants me to pay with the life, I do not have the complaint! Let alone passed on an ultimatum, even the angel regiment at present, me will be impossible to submit!” “我不介意！”里奇斩钉截铁地说道:“为了给父亲复仇,即使要我付出生命,我也毫无怨言！别说只是传个最后通牒了,就算天使军团就在眼前,我也不可能会屈服！” „Right! Yes!” “对！就是！” „We are impossible to submit!” “我们不可能会屈服！” „Makes them taste the taste of undead disaster!” “让他们尝尝亡灵天灾的滋味！” All of a sudden, lich shouted. Only Jones, but calmly sits, leaned the face to look at Richie one cautiously. 一下子,巫妖们又一个个呼喊了起来。唯独琼斯,只是静静地坐着,侧过脸小心翼翼地看了里奇一眼。 ...... …… „I do not feel feasible.” “我觉得不可行。” „Why?” “为什么？” In the gloomy tunnel, Dora gave Jones one can of blood. 阴暗的坑道里,朵拉将一罐鲜血递给了琼斯。 Took off own knight helmet, Jones received to pack the jar of blood, began supinely rumble fills toward the mouth. Until drank up completely, Jones lowered the head wiped a mouth conveniently, then said: „We have experienced the strength of angel regiment. Although they lost, but does not represent them to lose. In fact, I felt, if they whole-heartedly, can win inevitably. After all they have holy spirit, but the holy spirit strength, with Demon Lord is a level. We have experienced the Demon Lord strength. Even if causes the front at his demon, the ordinary angel and devil, will not have the strength to hit back.” 脱下自己的骑士头盔,琼斯接过装满鲜血的罐子,仰起头咕噜咕噜地往嘴里灌。直到全部喝完了,琼斯才低头随手抹了一把嘴,接着说道:“我们见识过天使军团的实力。虽然他们输了,但并不代表他们会一直输。事实上,我觉得如果他们全力以赴,是必然可以获胜的。毕竟他们还有圣灵,而圣灵的实力,跟魔主是一个层级的。我们都见识过魔主的力量。哪怕只是在他的魔使面前,普通的天使和恶魔,都会全无还手之力。” Depends on sits in the stone, Jones deeply inspires , stared at the ground that the front is empty also then saying: „I can understand their meanings. They do not want to involve truly, if they involve, the devil will definitely have an action to perform. But if not really able to solve, they will certainly involve. Accepts their conditions, perhaps was to us the best result.” 靠着坐在石头上,琼斯深深吸了口气,顿了顿,凝视着前方空无一物的地面又接着说道:“我能听懂他们的意思。他们不希望真正介入,因为如果他们介入,恶魔肯定也会有所动作。但如果实在无法解决了,他们就一定会介入。接受他们的条件,也许是对我们来说最好的结果了。” Dora puts out a hand the spatial jar that received Jones to hand over, asked cautiously: „Doesn't Sir Jones want to revenge for lich Your Highness king?” 朵拉伸手接过琼斯递回的空罐子,小心翼翼地问道:“琼斯大人不想为巫妖王殿下报仇了吗？” „I think certainly very much. But, is placed in front of us, not only the promising father revenges this matter. Besides revenges for the father, some of our also a lot must be done, for example defends, implements the father who the father perseveres to implement. If we defeat here, then they will even cancel from this world existence of father thoroughly, does not have any history book can record. The heaven and hell are glad to do that they have the sufficient ability. Entire Celts will restore to have the beforehand condition to the father.” In the eye of Jones filled was exhausted and confused. Looked at Dora one, he said in a soft voice: „Between father's dream and revenge, we must make a difficult choice.” “我当然很想。可是,摆在我们面前的不只有为父亲报仇这一件事。除了为父亲报仇之外,我们还有很多事情要做,例如守住父亲所坚守的,贯彻父亲所贯彻的。如果我们在这里战败,那么他们甚至会将父亲的存在从这个世界上彻底抹去,没有任何一本史书会记载。天堂与地狱都乐意这么做,他们也有足够的能力。整个凯尔特斯都将恢复到父亲出现之前的状态。”琼斯的眼睛里充满了疲惫与迷茫。看了朵拉一眼,他轻声说道:“在父亲的梦想与复仇之间,我们必须要做一个艰难的抉择。” „Sir Richie will not agree.” “里奇大人不会同意的。” „I know. Not only he, white bones Saint Holy Synod lich, do not only have one to agree.” Jones closed the eye slowly, the anxiety of whole face: „I want to persuade Richie, but I do not know how should open the mouth. In his mind, as if revenges for the father anything is more important, but is not only more important than his life.” “我知道。不只是他,白骨圣光教廷的巫妖们,就没有一个会同意。”琼斯缓缓地闭上了眼睛,满脸的忧虑:“我想劝说里奇,但我不知道应该怎么开口。在他的心中,似乎为父亲报仇比什么都重要,而不仅仅是比他的生命重要。” Jones concentrates on as before digging the summit of dragon. After that Jones then did not have to discuss with Richie for this matter again. Matter, as if also has the result, does not need to consider again. At least lich think that they have started actively to prepare. 琼斯依旧专注于挖垮龙之巅。此后,琼斯便没有再为这件事跟里奇谈过了。事情,似乎也已经有了结果,不需要再考虑。至少巫妖们是这么认为的,他们已经开始积极地备战了。 Gates of the space, many undead „consumable” was sent from other places. In undead position bustling. 一道道的空间之门,更多的亡灵“耗材”从其他地方被送来。亡灵的阵地上热火朝天。 Until two days later, the gold dragon Gerstaff elder appeared. The meeting with Gerstaff elder, Jones was also invited to participate. The place is goblin, when unearths the tunnel to dig conveniently, is similar to the space of basement. 直到两天之后,金龙的葛佳丝塔芙长老出现了。与葛佳丝塔芙长老的会面,琼斯也受邀参加。地点是一处哥布林们在挖掘坑道的时候顺手挖出来的,类似于地下室的空间。 ...... …… „Can you withdraw troops?” A Richie pair of hand supported on the table directly, interrogated sternly: „Do you want to violate the treaty of alliance again?” “你们要撤军？”里奇一双手直接撑到了桌上,厉声质问道:“你们是想再次违背盟约吗？” „No, our does not violate the treaty of alliance.” The Gerstaff elder said reluctantly: „On the contrary, our is implementing the treaty of alliance. In our treaties of alliance does not have any stipulation must be ruthless to black dragon. Even, your father, on a lich Your Highness king has also said personally, the black dragon equality and just should be safeguarded similarly. Not? At that time you also on the scene.” “不,我们这不是违背盟约。”葛佳丝塔芙长老无奈地说道:“相反,我们这是在贯彻盟约。我们的盟约里没有任何一条规定要对黑龙赶尽杀绝。甚至,您的父亲,上一任的巫妖王殿下也亲口说过,黑龙的平等与正义同样应该得到保障。不是吗？当时您也在场。” „But they killed my father!” “可他们杀了我的父亲！” „Not every black dragon participated in view of plan that your father assassinates, was not every black dragon participated to the assassination of your father. This regarding black dragon that has not made mistakes, is unfair, is unjust.” “并不是每一头黑龙都参与了针对令尊刺杀的谋划,更不是每一头黑龙都参与了对令尊的刺杀。这对于没有犯错的黑龙来说,不公平,也不正义。” „But they stand until now, not? This indicated that they support! Asked the elder you to listen!” Richie extends a hand to point at the underground space vault angrily. “但他们至今站在一起,不是吗？这说明他们都支持！请长老您自己听听！”里奇愤怒地伸出一只手指着地下空间的穹顶。 Even is away from thick earth, they can still hear the shout that hears from the summit of dragon. 即使隔着厚厚的一层土,他们依然可以听到从龙之巅上传来的呼喊声。 „lich king! Don't you want to revenge for your father? Kills us! We are waiting for you here!” “巫妖王！你不想为你父亲报仇了吗？来杀我们呀！我们就在这里等着你呢！” „Said you possibly not to believe that time that we killed your father, your father begged for mercy! He is spiritless lich!” “说出来你可能不信,我们杀你父亲的时候,你父亲求饶了！他是一只懦弱的巫妖！” „Right, your father also has black cat is right? That only black cat frightened the incontinence! Believes me, this real, at that time I presented!” “哦对,你的父亲还有一只黑猫对吗？那只黑猫吓得都失禁了！相信我,这都是真的,当时我就在场！” The tooth of Richie has bit giggle made noise, he is staring at the Gerstaff elder angrily. 里奇的牙已经咬得咯咯作响了,他愤怒地盯着葛佳丝塔芙长老。 Lowers the head, the Gerstaff elder said in a soft voice: „This matter, making us see the countenance of this our gold dragon ally for a long time time. Believes me, our gold dragon also loathes them now. We have no intention the alliance relationship of restoration with them, even is not willing to have any tiny bit connection with them, more impossible to shield them. However...... you really need seriously to consider this issue.” 低下头,葛佳丝塔芙长老轻声说道:“这一次的事情,让我们看到这个我们金龙长久以来的盟友的嘴脸。相信我,我们金龙现在也十分厌恶他们。我们无意恢复与他们之间的同盟关系,甚至不愿意与他们有任何一丝一毫的瓜葛,更不可能去袒护他们。但是……您真的需要认真考虑这个问题。” „I do not need to consider!” Richie fierce say/way. “我不需要考虑！”里奇厉声道。 „If the heaven really dispatched troops, how we should deal?” No matter slightly the rejection of Richie, the Gerstaff elder opened the eye, the tone also aggravated gradually, pursues asks: „If we defeated here, what our gold dragon clan will encounter? Your father vainly hoped for what for a long time will turn into? We hate black dragon, but hates is unable to change anything. It will only make us be stuck in the mud to be inescapably involved, making us lose, then ruins us to treasure.” “如果天堂真的出兵了,我们应该怎么应对？”丝毫不管里奇的拒绝,葛佳丝塔芙长老睁大了眼睛,语气也渐渐加重了,追问道:“如果我们在这里战败了,我们金龙一族会遭遇什么？令尊长久以来的梦想又会变成什么样？我们都痛恨黑龙,但仇恨无法改变任何东西。它只会让我们陷入泥潭之中不能自拔,让我们迷失,进而毁掉我们所珍视的。” „My father has not compromised! I am impossible to compromise! Can defeat black dragon, I can defeat the angel!” “我的父亲从来没有妥协过！我也不可能会妥协！能击败黑龙,我就能击败天使！” „How you plan to defeat, can tell as your ally us?” “那您打算怎么击败呢,能告诉身为您的盟友的我们吗？” „I do not need to tell you!” “我不需要告诉你！” „We are the allies, not? When you requests us to fulfill as the duty of ally, whether should also make us have the ally proper power? Not only you need to appraise, we also need to appraise.” “我们是盟友,不是吗？在您要求我们履行身为盟友的义务的时候,是否也应该让我们拥有盟友应有的权力？不只您需要评估,我们同样需要评估。” The atmosphere is extremely stiff. 气氛已经极僵了。 Richie has obviously been wild with rage, in front of this giant crisis, the gold dragon similar slightest does not draw back. both sides on are refusing to budge. 里奇明显已经气疯了,在这巨大的危机面前,金龙也同样分毫不退。双方就这么僵持着。 Jones sits in the Richie side, looked at Richie one quietly. 琼斯就坐在里奇的身旁,悄悄地看了里奇一眼。 Some little time, the Gerstaff elder supported the desktop to stand slowly, said in a soft voice: „I have no intention to force you, but the time press, we must have a final decision, hopes that you can seriously consider, after quite a while, I again. Hopes before deadline, we can reach an agreement.” 好一会,葛佳丝塔芙长老撑着桌面缓缓站了起来,轻声说道:“我无意逼迫您,但时间紧迫,我们必须要有一个最终的决定,希望您能认真地考虑一下,半天之后我会再来。希望在最后期限之前,我们能达成一致。” Saying, the Gerstaff elder both hands overlapping chest front, bowed to salute, gets out of the way. 说着,葛佳丝塔芙长老双手交叉胸前,躬身行了个礼,走开了。 In the small underground space, is only left over Richie and Jones sits shoulder to shoulder, worn-out wooden table that fell completely the silt, several chairs. An oil lamp is dragging on the table gently, screens Richie and Jones respective shadow on the dike. 小小的地下空间里,只剩下里奇和琼斯并肩而坐,一张落满了泥沙的破旧木桌,几张椅子。还有一盏油灯在桌上轻轻摇曳着,在岩壁上映出里奇和琼斯各自的影子。 Two people calmly sit, the whole world is quiet. Except that transmits from afar, taunt of black dragon, again without any other sounds. 两个人就这么静静地坐着,整个世界静悄悄的。除了远远传来的,黑龙们的嘲讽,再没有其他任何声响。 These sounds so grating, was only left over them by As for as if the whole world. 那些声音是如此地刺耳,以至于仿佛整个世界只剩下他们了。 A moment later, Richie stood fiercely, held up the table, flings on the dike to fall a smashing. 片刻之后,里奇猛地站了起来,一把将桌子举起,甩到岩壁上摔了个粉碎。 The oil lamp falls in the place, one ignited a small fire of high-piled firewood, illuminates the underground space well-illuminated. 油灯掉落在地,一下燃起了一个小火堆,把地下空间照得通亮。 Jones calmly sits on the chair as before, as if nothing happened is the same, but stared in the vision of fire of high-piled firewood to fill reluctantly. 琼斯依旧静静地坐在椅子上,就仿佛什么都没发生一样,只是盯着火堆的目光中充满了无奈。 Richie has been mad trembles: „Elder Brother, you will support my right? We project on the bottom with them together. Whoever must prevent us to take revenge, we cannot have slight making concessions. Even if the heaven and hell is also the same. The father cannot die, only several black dragon are unable to level the mistake that they violate.” 里奇已经气得瑟瑟发抖了:“哥哥,您会支持我的对吗？我们一起跟他们打到底。无论谁要阻止我们复仇,我们都不能有丝毫的退让。哪怕是天堂和地狱也一样。父亲不能就这么死去,区区几头黑龙无法抹平他们所犯下的错。” Jones is silent. 琼斯沉默着。 „Don't you support me?” Richie then said: „Relax, I have the means to rout the angel regiment. This means are not difficult to think.” “您不支持我吗？”里奇接着说道:“放心,我有办法可以击溃天使军团。这个办法并不难想到。” „Forms an alliance with the hell?” Jones asked suddenly. “跟地狱结盟吗？”琼斯忽然问道。 Asked these words time, Jones somewhat were surprised. This is a simplest way, but originally, should be the most impossible means. However, at this moment, Jones thought suddenly this is the means that Richie most can choose...... 问出这句话的时候,琼斯自己都有些惊讶了。这是一个最简单的办法,但原本,也应该是最不可能的办法。然而,此时此刻,琼斯又忽然觉得这是里奇最会选择的办法…… Silent some little time, Richie replied: „Yes, this perhaps was the only means. Will you support?” 沉默了好一会,里奇才答道:“是的,这也许是唯一的办法了。您会支持吗？” Hears this reply, Jones somewhat was obviously disappointed: „I support or not, will change your decision?” 听到这个回答,琼斯明显地有些失望了:“我支持与否,会改变你的决定吗？” „Naturally, you are a my elder brother. My only Elder Brother. The father is not, except for mother, you and Elder Sister Dora was I most intimate person. We should stand.” “当然,你是我的哥哥。我唯一的哥哥。父亲不在,除了母亲,您和朵拉姐姐就是我最亲近的人了。我们应该站在一起。” „By doing so, will violate father's belief.” “这样做,会违背父亲的信仰。” „No, cannot.” Richie has leaned fiercely the face, said: „Isn't father also and devil has formed an alliance? He has obtained the Demon Lord strength, although the strength was received afterward. This is mother tells me.” “不,并不会。”里奇猛地侧过脸来,说道:“父亲不是也和恶魔结盟过吗？他获得过魔主的力量,虽然后来力量又被收回去了。这是母亲告诉我的。” „At that time I in his side.” Looks to Richie, Jones said in a soft voice: „Specifically, the father obtained the devil ‚presenting’. Is ‚presenting’, rather than forms an alliance. Demon Lord does not have to ask to the father, he retains the power that ‚presenting’ will take back. No other conditions. Can we now, talk about the similar condition with the hell? Regarding this I suspected.” “当时我就在他的身边。”望向里奇,琼斯轻声说道:“准确地说,父亲是获得了恶魔的‘馈赠’。是‘馈赠’,而不是结盟。魔主对父亲无所求,他只是保留了将‘馈赠’收回的权力。没有任何其他的条件。我们现在,能和地狱谈到同样的条件吗？对此我十分怀疑。” Richie with is hand-held the helmet, walked back and forth two steps in the underground space, even stepped from the fire of high-piled firewood directly. Has turned head, he spreads out both hands to say to Jones: „We other have not chosen, this is we can choose only!” 里奇用手扶着头盔,在地下空间内来回走了两步,甚至直接从火堆上踩了过去。回过头,他摊开双手对琼斯说道:“我们已经没有其他选择了,这是我们唯一能选择的！” „No, we have other choices, but you are not willing to accept.” Jones is shivering slightly, deeply inspires, sips the lip saying: „You have said that father's last words are make you do not hate, the hatred cannot recall anything. Not? Perhaps we should comply with father's last words. The father regarding the dream, looks at oneself life to be important. We actually want to give him takes revenge, destroys all that he until now made?” “不,我们还有其他选择,只是你不愿意接受而已。”琼斯微微颤抖着,深深吸了口气,抿着唇说道:“你说过,父亲的遗言是让你不要仇恨,仇恨挽回不了任何东西。不是吗？也许我们应该遵从父亲的遗言。父亲对于梦想,看得比自己的生命还重要。我们却要为了给他复仇,毁了他一直以来做的所有吗？”
