In the lostold cityis full the bleaklonelyatmosphere, can only hear, only then the volumecomes to one's ear the footsteps of otherrumorsas well aspeople side once for a while, onancientold streetsay/way that was coveredby the sand dust, Hao Renonelinewas still exploringdiscretely.
失落的古城中充盈着荒凉寂寥的气氛,唯一能听到的只有时不时卷过耳边的风声以及身边其他人的脚步,在被沙尘覆盖的古老街道上,郝仁一行仍然在谨慎地探索着。Mobile Data Terminalfloatsfrontline the team, the scanning beam that the terminalsurfaceprojectshas sweptperipheryeachunceasinglyseeminglysuspiciouslyorpossiblyremainsto have the object of old cityhistorymystery, the sculpture of collapsingandscattersin the flagstone of placeismost valuablething, on someflagstones and clay tabletbroken pieces, Mobile Data Terminaldiscoveredthatcuneiform character that Hessianaoncementioned.数据终端漂浮在队伍最前方,终端表面投射出的扫描光束不断扫过周围每一个看上去可疑或者可能残留有古城历史奥秘的物体,坍塌的雕塑和散落在地的石板是其中最有价值的东西,在其中一些石板和泥板破片上,数据终端发现了海瑟安娜曾提到的那种楔形文字。Butmostwriting had almost been smoothed by grindingby the sandstorm, symbolnotover35 that oftenon the goodscanrecognizetogether, from the startcontinually the situation of inadequatewords and phrases, even the Mobile Data Terminaltranslating systemis still hardto deal with it.
只不过大部分文字都几乎已经被风沙磨平,往往一块物品上能够辨识的符号也不会超过三五个,在压根连不成词句的情况下,即便是数据终端的翻译系统也难以对其进行处理。„In the pastthesesymbolstrulyseem likeon the Mesopotamiaplainhad used in common the cuneiform character,”Vivianlooks atMobile Data Terminalat present the acquiredwritingdesign, thesedesignsonfloatbeforeher, „whatonclay tabletis the standardwedge-shaped body, on the flagstonefor ease of the carving, butsomeprocessedanomalous form, butbetweentwotypefacesinterconversion not difficult......”
“这些符号确实很像是当年美索不达米亚平原上通用过的楔形文字,”薇薇安看着数据终端目前已经收集到的文字图案,这些图案就悬浮在她面前,“泥板上的是标准楔形体,石板上则是为了便于雕刻而处理过的某种变体,但两种字体之间相互转换并不困难……”Hao Renlooks attheseancient writingcuriously: „Can youtranslate?”郝仁好奇地看着这些古文字:“你能翻译出来么?”„Cannot,”Vivianshake the head, „, althoughfrom the shapetrulyis the cuneiform character, the cuneiform character that buttheyandhumanexcavatesin the modern times is completely not a system, butinmymemorynot the explanationmethods of thesethings.”
“不能,”薇薇安摇了摇头,“虽然从形态上确实是楔形文字,但它们和人类在近代发掘出的楔形文字完全不是一个体系,而我的记忆中并没有这些东西的解读方法。”„Batyoureallydoes not rememberthiscityAh?”Lilynever forgetstothisissue, „perhapsthisplaceisletsyourRed Moonmassacres citydirectly, how don't youremember?”
“蝙蝠你是真不记得这座城啊?”莉莉还是对这个问题念念不忘,“这地方说不定就是让你一个红月直接屠城的诶,你怎么就不记得了呢?”„Ireallydid not have the impression,” the Vivianwhole facewas helpless, „, moreovermassacred city...... thisto be incompatiblewithmypersonality, evenin the pastunconscioustime, Ishouldstillbeforeloses controlthoroughlywas far away from the humancommunityas far as possible.”
“我是真没印象了,”薇薇安满脸无奈,“而且屠城……这跟我性格不符好么,即便当年神志不清的时候,我应该也会在彻底失控之前尽量远离人类聚居区的。”„Thisissue left over by historywaits saying that again,”Hao Renshakes the head, lookstofrontyellow sandstreeteverywhere, „frontconstruction that seems like the temple, inthatwill perhaps be retaining the quitecompletewriting, candoto understand the origin of thiscityprobably.”
“这种历史遗留问题还是等会再说吧,”郝仁摇摇头,看向前方黄沙遍地的街道,“前面又有一个看上去像是神庙的建筑,那里面说不定会保留着比较完整的文字,大概就能搞明白这座城的由来了。”LilyOh, takes a stepto followwhileis whispering: „Wordssaidinthiscity the areabiggestis a temple, the ancient people were really wastethatproductive forcesinthisplace......”莉莉哦了一声,一边迈步跟上一边嘀咕着:“话说这城里占地面积最大的都是神庙啊,古代人真是把那点生产力都浪费在这种地方了……”On, this that such asLilysaidlosesin the old city the areabiggestbuildingalmost is a temple, theirthencanidentifyexternally: The templeis big, in the shapeis approximatepyramid and cubebuilt-up section, before itsconstructionupper layerandmain entrance, will have the sculpture of variousmilitary might, moreoverthesesculpturealsocharacteristic, theyare various beast of preyfeature combinations of humantorsowith the image that become, perhapsthisis manifestingthismysteriouscityin the pastreligious beliefshape, in the primitivewildgeneration, the religiousimage of suchboorishterrifyingfinds at everywhere.
就如莉莉所说的,这座失落古城中占地面积最大的建筑物几乎全都是神庙,它们从外观上一眼便能辨认:神庙高大,形态上近似金字塔和立方体的组合结构,其建筑上层和正门前都会有各种威武的雕塑,而且这些雕塑也独具特色,它们是人类躯干与各种猛兽特征组合而成的形象,这或许体现着这座神秘城市在当年的宗教信仰形态,在原始的荒蛮世代,这样粗野恐怖的宗教形象随处可见。Thesetemplesalmostoccupied the entirecity1/3areato far exceedneednormally, reallydoes not know that in the past years the religious system of thisscaleneeding many attachedvillages and small towns and humanservantcanprovide.
这些神庙几乎占据了整座城市三分之一的面积已经远远超出正常所需,真不知道在当年需要多少附属村镇和人类奴仆才能供养的起这种规模的宗教体系。Now, Hao Renin front ofonelineis towering such a temple.
现在,郝仁一行面前就耸立着一座这样的神庙。Itis not the citycentralthatgianttemple, butsmall a palacenearcentraltemple, mustgo to the centraltemple to fromthisbuildingnearbymain roadprocess. This„is small” the templealsohas the stirringscale, itcomprised ofgiantpyramidshape the attachedpalaces of main bodiesandtworectangles, twopalacearrangementsbeforepyramid, as ifcrawlin the foreleg that the lion of placefinds outforward, butinpyramidsquare, is tworows of statues of neatarrangement, theiras ifguardis guarding the channelto lead totempledeep place.
它并不是城市中央那座巨大的庙宇,而是位于中央神庙附近的一座较小的殿堂,要前往中央神庙必须从这座建筑物附近的大道经过。这座“较小”的庙宇同样有着震撼人心的规模,它由一座巨大的金字塔状主体和两个长方形的附属宫殿组成,两个宫殿排列在金字塔前,就仿佛匍匐在地的狮子向前探出的前肢,而在金字塔正前方的广场上,则是整齐排列的两列石像,它们仿佛卫兵般守卫着通向神殿深处的通道。Beforegoing tocitycentraltemple, Hao Renthought that shouldfirstsearcharound a Xiazhongxinareathekind of attachedtemple, in order to avoidmisses the vital clue. Although the avalanche of differentspaceis still continuing, but the completeavalancheat least was also several days later matter, healsohasenoughtimenow.
在前往城市中央神庙之前,郝仁觉得应该先搜索一下中心区周围的这类附属神殿,以免错过重要线索。虽然异空间的崩塌还在持续,但完全崩塌至少也是几天后的事情了,他现在还有着充足的时间。Elizabethridesin the Y’zaksshoulder, looks at the surroundingthesegrandhugebuildings and statueslooking all around, in the religiousstatues of otherareaswith the city is the same, theseseveralmetershighsculpturesimilarlyareby the torso and wild animallimbs of combinationhuman, theyhave the head of lion, jackalandalligator, the bodytwist the fiercestance, seems preparing the fightat any time, the smalldevilobserved after for quite a while, draws the conclusion: „Heyreallyugly.”伊丽莎白骑在伊扎克斯肩头,东张西望地看着周围那些宏伟巨大的建筑和石像,就和城市里其它地区的宗教性石像一样,这些数米高的雕塑同样是由人类的躯干与野兽肢体组合而成,它们有着狮子、胡狼、鳄鱼的头颅,身体扭曲成狰狞的姿态,仿佛随时准备着战斗,小恶魔观察了半天之后作出结论:“噫真丑。”Canletget used to seeing the little miss of Y’zaksthatfaceto say„reallyugly”twocharacters, obviouslythesestatues are very ugly.
能让看惯了伊扎克斯那张脸的小姑娘说出“真丑”俩字,可见这些石像是真的很丑。Vivianwas still playing the role of historicalnarrator: „Inprimitivereligiousworship, the powerfulwild animalalwayseventakesgod'simageto appearas the guard of god, thistwoaspectreasons, on the one handwasancienthumandreadsin the great strength of thesebeast of prey, the most powerfulwild animalwill regard aswith the godsamehaveexistence of specialstrength, thenon the other handwasbecauseearlyruledEarth‚different kind’ had bigonebatchthroughurgingvariouswild animals and demonbeastssurrenderhuman, eventhere aremanydifferent kindonlongminimumhow many is not more unattractive than the wild animalin the aesthetic standard of human, these‚primitivegods’onwere the beastgod.”薇薇安仍然充当着历史解说员的角色:“原始的宗教崇拜中,强大的野兽总是作为神的侍卫甚至作为神本身的形象出现,这有两方面原因,一方面是古代人类畏惧于那些猛兽的强大,他们将最强大的野兽视作和神一样具备特殊力量的存在,另一方面则是因为最早期统治地球的‘异类’中有很大一批都是通过驱使各种野兽和魔兽来降服人类的,甚至有很多异类自己就长的不比野兽好看多少起码在人类的审美观里,这些‘原始神明’就是兽神。”Lolisahasplacenot to listen toViviantheseexplanations, suddenlyis knitting the browsto looktosomedirection: „Who?!”洛丽萨有一句没一句地听着薇薇安这些讲解,突然皱着眉看向某个方向:“谁?!”Hao Renimmediatelypointed weaponsinhand: „What's wrong?”郝仁立刻兵刃在手:“怎么了?”Lolisafixed the eyes onrearstreetendonegroup of sandstorm, the eyeswas turning into the Saintflamesamesilver-white colorslowly, buthereyesreturned toa moment laternormal: „Possiblywas the misconception the flashIfelt likesomepeopleto stare atto resemblea moment ago.”洛丽萨紧盯着后方街道尽头的一团风沙,双眼慢慢变成了圣焰一样的银白色,但片刻之后她的双眼又恢复了正常:“可能是错觉刚才一瞬间我觉得好像有人在盯着自己似的。”„Ihad not felt that”Lilyshook the ear, „Isixknowkeenly, Ihad not felt that youdefinitelywere the misconception.”
“我没感觉呀,”莉莉晃了晃耳朵,“我六识敏锐,我都没感觉那你就肯定是错觉了。”„Probably.”Lolisaknits the brows, slowlytakes back the vision.
“大概吧。”洛丽萨皱皱眉,慢慢收回目光。

神庙的大门是用沉重的铁木包裹着铜皮制成,在当时那个年代应当是最坚不可摧的大门了,然而在异空间中遭受了数千年的风沙洗礼之后,这扇门仍然严重朽坏,残余的破烂门板歪歪斜斜地堵在入口前。莉莉上前把两扇重达半吨的门板随手扔到一旁,才露出了里面黑沉沉的通道。
The fireGao Xinglianghas the flamingflame, in the flamedrags, the groupstepped intothisancientvestige.
火之非常高兴亮起熊熊火光,在火光摇曳中,一行人踏入了这处古老的遗迹。Went forwardshortly, theythennoticed that by the corridoralsopresented the giantguardstatue.
前进了没多久,他们便看到走廊两侧同样出现了巨大的守卫石像。Stillwasthatstrangestone carving that the human body and wild animalheadunionbecame, was still the preparationstance of presentingis ready, the statue in templewantedonsmallcompared withoutsidethesestatues, butalsohas over fivemetersaltitude, seeming like the military mightwas unusual.
仍然是人体与野兽头颅结合而成的那种怪异石雕,仍然是呈现出蓄势待发的备战姿态,神庙内的石像比外面那些石像要小上一圈,但同样有着五米以上的高度,看上去威武异常。„Strange...... whysomeso manystatues......”Vivianis knitting the brows the whisperto say.
“奇怪……为什么有这么多石像……”薇薇安皱着眉嘀咕道。Hao Renis perplexed: „Intemplehasthissculptureis notverynormal?”郝仁不明所以:“神殿里有这种雕塑不是很正常么?”„Havingthissculptureis very normal, butthisquantity was not quite normal, thishas surpassedhas taken the scale that the ornamentneeds,”Vivianshakes the head, „is really the strangewickedinterest.”
“有这种雕塑很正常,但这个数量就不太正常了,这已经超出了作为装饰品所需的规模,”薇薇安摇摇头,“真是诡异的恶趣味。”At this timeflewto yellsuddenlyinfrontMobile Data Terminal: „Partner! Partners! Heremuralcandistinguish!”
这时候飞在前面的数据终端突然大叫起来:“搭档!搭档!这边的壁画是可以识别的!”Hao Renhurriedto run, was seeing the bluelight beam that Mobile Data Terminalprojectedhas sweptstone wallrelativeserious of coloredreliefthatreliefactuallysimilarlymotleycorrosion, howalmostcould not see the original conditionby the naked eyejudgment of humanis, perhapseven the experiencedarchaeologistcamestillto needquitecomplextechnological meansas to return to original stateauxiliary12it, but was almost smoothed by grinding the torn to piecesflagstone and clay tabletcompared withcitysurroundingthesethoroughly, region that onthismuralresidualcan stilldistinguish.郝仁赶紧跑了过去,正看到数据终端投射出的蓝色光束扫过石壁上的一片彩色浮雕那浮雕其实同样斑驳侵蚀的相当严重,以人类的肉眼判断几乎看不出原貌是怎样了,即便有经验的考古学家过来恐怕也需要相当复杂的技术手段作为辅助才能将其还原一二,但比起城市外围那些几乎被彻底磨平又支离破碎的石板和泥板,这幅壁画上仍然残留着很多可以识别的区域。With the Mobile Data Terminalstrongcomputing powersupport, thesemuralswere returned to original statequickly, muralbelowwritingwas also being pieced together the reorganizationslowly, when presentsthrough the way of total informationprojectioninstone wallsuch as they are complete is the same.
在数据终端超强的计算能力支持下,这些壁画很快被还原出来,连带着壁画下方的文字也慢慢被拼凑重组,并通过全息投影的方式呈现在石壁上就如它们完好时一样。In the firstpicture, Hao Rensaw the abstractstrangescene: Hesaw that a veryhugelifeformwalksin the land, or„floating”, itlikeone, only then the beetles of manytall and slendersharpfeet, fromthatoverlappingwhat, imitates the buddha's bonesboardto pile up one on top of anotherunder the generalbodyto extendisseveralpairsdiffers so much as to be beyond comparisonwith the body is completely thin and longleg, the sharpfoot of thislifeformsteps on the land, the bodyactually and livelihoodis on parthis to be ancient'sexaggeratingdescription, butwas suspectedto this lifeform of sufficientlyseeming like the beetlehas the terrifyinghowbuild, butithassuchterrifyingbuild, actuallydepends uponseveralto the high-pitched and finelongfoot.

在第一副画面上,郝仁看到了抽象诡异的景象:他看到有一个非常巨大的生物在大地上行走,或者说“浮行”,它就像一只有着许多细长尖脚的甲虫,从那层层叠叠的、仿佛骨板堆叠一般的身躯下面延伸出的是数对与身躯完全不成比例又细又长的腿,这个生物的尖脚踩在大地上,身躯却和日月比肩这应当是古人夸张的描绘,但足以让人猜想到这个看似甲虫的生物有着多么恐怖的体型,而它有着如此恐怖的体型,却依靠几对尖细的长脚就能在大地上行走,这足以说明它的身躯恐怕是“浮行”在半空的,它要么在体内有着大量悬浮气囊结构,要么干脆就具备操控重力的能力。
The firstpicturealmostused the completelengthto showthishugelifeform the detail, under the picturealsoonly then a word, Mobile Data Terminaltransliteratedit, itsnamedErtos, if nothing unexpected happens, thatmustbe the name of hugelifeform.
第一副画面几乎用了全部篇幅来展现这个巨大生物的细节,画面下也只有一个单词,数据终端将其音译过来,其名为厄托斯,如无意外,那应当就是巨大生物的名字。

第二幅画面则展现了这个生物的破坏力:它身边环绕着雷霆闪电,还有从天而降的火焰流星,甚至就连太阳和月亮都被这个巨大甲虫吞入了体内,而在甲虫细长的尖脚下面,则是倒塌的城墙和死去的人类,这代表这个生物具备召唤闪电和火焰的超自然力量,而且极有可能是在某次日食或月食的时候出现的,它摧毁了人类的城市,人类却对它束手无策。在那些尸体之间,甚至还可以看到一些体型格外高大、具备异族特征的人形生物,那些人形生物身边都有光圈一样的纹路,数据终端在翻译过画面下的文字之后表示,那些是“旧神明”的尸体。
The lifeform of namedErtosdestroyedone„mythcity-state that”is ruledby the different kind.
名为厄托斯的生物摧毁了一个由异类统治的“神话城邦”。Butin the line of sight of Hao Renfalls in the thirdpicture, hisLilyshoutedsuddenlystands upall of a sudden.
而就在郝仁的视线落在第三幅画面上的时候,他身旁的莉莉突然呼一下子站起身来。„Whatsound do youhear?”
“你们有没有听到什么声音?”

哈士奇姑娘的耳朵不断转向各个方向,金色的眸子在昏暗的环境中闪闪发亮。
