Anna nods, black fire stretch is a silk thread, arrives gently on crystal stone pillar. 安娜点点头,将黑火拉伸为一根丝线,轻轻抵在晶石柱上。 Numerous witch cannot help but has turned very quiet, sees only the spot that both contact to leap intermittent green smoke-- that is not smog's color, but presents the luster that under shine of green fire the light and shade varies. 众女巫不由自主地屏住了呼吸,只见两者接触的部位腾起阵阵绿烟——那并非烟雾本身的颜色,而是在绿火的映照下呈现出明暗不一的色泽。 The black fire has inserted in crystal stone. 黑火嵌入了晶石之中。 „What kind of?” Tilly asked. “怎么样？”提莉问。 „A little hard sledding, but can cut open,” Anna should say. “有点费力,但是能切开,”安娜应道。 Suddenly, „ice coffin” had the change, with a clear kā chā sound, several cracks spreads from the position of black fire inserting, was similar to the spider web has covered generally entirely the entire barrel suddenly. Almost is simultaneously, Shavi has haunched the barrier, wraps witches. 忽然间,“冰棺”发生了变化,随着一声清脆的咔嚓声,几道裂纹从黑火嵌入的位置蔓延开来,如同蜘蛛网一般眨眼间就布满了整个柱体。几乎是同时,纱薇撑起了屏障,将女巫们包裹在内。 But blasting open in imagining has not occurred, crystal stone of disruption like disintegrating caved, reveals has been sending out the essence-- this transparent barrel of cold air unexpectedly by two mechanical complexes, the interior was a genuine ice crystal. In an instant, all people felt the chill in the air of heading on, all around temperature dropped suddenly. 但意想之中的炸裂没有发生,碎裂的晶石如土崩瓦解般一块块塌落,露出了散发着寒气的内核——这个透明的柱体竟由两层结构组成,内部是一块真正的冰晶。刹那间,所有人都感受到了扑面而来的寒意,四周的气温急剧下降。 Was good maintains the temperature of depreciation because of Anna quickly, and made it rise again to the normal state. 好在安娜很快维持住了跌落的温度,并使其回升到正常状态。 Under the roasting of black fire, the ice crystal melted quickly, the transparency also suddenly dropped, the contour was no longer uneven, is similar to the ordinary ice piece general contraction melting. However Tilly notes in the ground not to present the big beach/pool water, the part of melting turns into the smog to scatter completely, probably „ice coffin” has not existed has been same. 在黑火的烘烤下,冰晶融化得更快了,透明度也急剧下降,外形不再有棱有角,如同普通冰块一般收缩融化。不过提莉注意到地面上并没有出现大滩积水,融化的部分全部化成烟雾飘散,就好像“冰棺”从来没有存在过一样。 When all ice crystal ablations completely, were sealed in female have revealed the true body. 当所有冰晶消融殆尽,被封在其中的女子露出了真身。 She as if still sank into the deep sleep, when trace that the long hair and clothes robe has not soaked, all and by frozen different. Lost the support of barrel, her body weak goes backward but actually, was hugged by Ash in the bosom. 她似乎仍陷于沉睡之中,长发和衣袍都没有浸湿的痕迹,一切与被冰封时没什么两样。失去了柱体的支撑,她的身体无力的向后倒去,接着被灰烬抱在怀里。 „Also is living?” “还活着吗？” „Although is very weak, but heartbeat has not stopped,” Ash uses the hand according to the chest of opposite party, „this...... Simply unbelievable.” “虽然很微弱,但心跳没有停止,”灰烬用手按在对方的胸口,“这……简直难以置信。” Indeed unbelievable, Tilly discovered that since arriving at Border Town, in less than one week of time, the unthinkable matter that sees were more than past one year. However she also slightly relaxed, can survive in the temperature extremely low ice crystal, its status had determined most likely the-- opposite party is witch. 的确难以置信,提莉发现自从来到边陲镇后,在一周不到的时间里,所见到的匪夷所思之事比以往一年都要多。不过她也稍稍松了口气,能在温度极低的冰晶中存活下来,其身份十有八九已经确定下来了——对方是一名女巫。 The action of this risk does not have achieved nothing finally. 这次冒险之举总算不是一无所获。 As for her name, her origin, why as well as was stranded in ruins, these doubts can , after going back, inquired again slowly. 至于她的名字,她的来历,以及为何被困在遗迹之中,这些疑惑可以等到回去之后再慢慢询问。 ******************* ******************* Andrea somewhat bored defends by cavity, once for a while looks at two toward the hole bottom, hopes that can the earliest possible time see Tilly to return. 安德莉亚有些无聊地守在空洞旁,时不时朝洞底望上两眼,希望能第一时间看到提莉归来。 Around ruins has not had the Devil trace, Evil Beast also little saw, occasionally is some common Wolf species or Wild boar species that from the woods crops up, even also without enough time draws, Nightingale has sewn the dagger in their heads. 遗迹周围并未出现魔鬼的踪影,就连邪兽也很少见到,偶尔从树林中冒出头的不过是些常见的狼种或野猪种,甚至还来不及开弓,夜莺就已经将匕首钉在了它们的头上。 Passing of time as if becomes slow, here besides her, remains by cave entrance completely is Cooperation Association witch, even to find a person to chat to kill the time unable to achieve. Although that female who called Wendy looked like very kind, determination that but Andrea under uncertain talked throughout on own initiative. 时间的流逝仿佛变得缓慢起来,这里除了她以外,留守在洞口旁的全部是共助会女巫,就算想找个人聊天打发时间都做不到。尽管那位叫温蒂的女子看起来十分和蔼,可安德莉亚始终下不定主动搭话的决心。 As Dawn upper layer noble, graceful and acts with constraint is the unmarried woman's necessary quality. 作为一名晨曦上层贵族,优雅与矜持是未婚女士必备的素质。 Ok, looks for Nightingale to chat, heard that she once had fought with Ash, moreover hits does not know one's place. Since is inquired that the information of old match, does not calculate that talked on own initiative. 算了,还是找夜莺聊聊吧,听说她曾和灰烬交过手,而且打得不分上下。既然是打听老对手的情报,就不算主动搭话了。 Yeah, this is only a necessary work. 嗯,这只是一项必要的工作。 She puts out a hand to pat the snow of top of the head, raised head, actually suddenly jumps-- Nightingale to disappear at heart. 她伸手拍掉自己头顶的积雪,抬起头,心里却猛然一跳——夜莺不见了。 That has a golden curl, looks like likes the noble graceful female similarly, has depended near the hanging basket, but she actually lost the trace now. Right, her ability seems to hide the figure is coming. 那名拥有一头金色卷发,看起来同样有如贵族般优雅的女子,原本一直靠在吊篮边,但现在她却失去了踪影。对了,她的能力似乎是隐藏身形来着。 Thinks of here, Andrea calms the mind to feel the surrounding sound, when the vision is unable to apply, the ear and nose catch the good helper in match whereabouts. 想到此处,安德莉亚静下心来感受周围的响动,当视觉无法派上用场时,耳朵和鼻子都是捕捉对手行踪的好帮手。 Afterward she heard the sound of footsteps of careful suo suo. 随后她听到了细细索索的脚步声。 Is Nightingale? 是夜莺？ It is not right, Andrea felt that the fine body hair is but actually vertical, these sounds of footsteps are not a person can send-- to have one group of people obviously to approach to here, in the front jungle, only has hundred remote to oneself! But when she takes a broad view to look, the eyesight institute and place is still a tranquility, cannot see including a person's shadow. 不对,安德莉亚感到寒毛倒竖,这些脚步声明显不是一个人能发出来——有一群人正在向这边靠近,就在前方的丛林之中,离自己只有百步之遥！但当她放眼望去,目力所及之处依然是一片平静,连一个人影也看不到,。 The sound of footsteps was quickly near at hand, damn, the enemy is transparent! 脚步声很快已经近在咫尺,见鬼,敌人是透明的！ She just wants to sound the warning, thunders blooms in the ear suddenly. 她刚想发出警报,一声轰鸣突然在耳边绽放。 The flame in the midair presently, then air rocks for the first time, a modeling unusual monster appears-- it to have the long and narrow head, as well as the sharp double sickle, seems looked like a variation praying mantis, however lay in any insect not same place, it was the erectness walks. 火光在半空中乍现,接着空气一阵晃动,一只造型奇特的怪物浮现出来——它拥有狭长的脑袋,以及锋锐的双镰,看上去就像是一只变异了的的螳螂,然而和任何昆虫都不相同的地方在于,它是直立行走的。 arrows that the flintlock projects crushed its profile, the black blood spouts from the skull, almost splashes to Andrea on. 火枪射出的箭矢击碎了它的侧脸,黑色的血液从脑壳中喷出,差点溅到安德莉亚身上。 The monster falls to the ground loudly, afterward she saw white cloak and Hood that Nightingale flutters. 怪物轰然倒地,随后她看到了夜莺飘扬的白色披风和兜帽。 Then is the second gunshot! 接着是第二声枪响！ Damn, oneself were negligent! Andrea closes tightly the lip, her early noted all these. 该死,自己大意了！安德莉亚咬紧嘴唇,她比自己更早注意到了这一切。 She summoned the magic power long bow, actually does not know that should fire toward where, has to return to the hanging basket near slowly, with other witch stood. 她召唤出魔力长弓,却不知道该往何处射击,只好慢慢退回到吊篮边,和其他女巫站在一起。 The four sounds gunshot, four monsters drop down, strikes to be killed violently completely. 四声枪响,四头怪物倒下,全部是一击毙命。 When Nightingale comes in a monster side once more, Andrea receives weapon, walked quickly. 当夜莺再次现身于一头怪物身旁时,安德莉亚收起武器,快步走了过去。 „What is this?” “这是什么？” „It is not Evil Beast is Devil,” her squatting lower part of the body has provoked the lackey and hand sickle of enemy, „from the blood color, is more like Evil Beast.” “不是邪兽就是魔鬼,”她蹲下身拨弄了敌人的爪牙和手镰,“不过从血液颜色来看,更像是邪兽。” „When do you discover them?” “你是什么时候发现它们的？” „Appears from them starts,” Nightingale smiled, „in the dense fog, their magic power brilliance in the stars with nighttime sky generally is conspicuous.” “从它们出现开始,”夜莺笑了笑,“在迷雾里,它们身上的魔力光辉就跟夜空中的繁星一般显眼。” „Can Evil Beast have this ability?” Andrea knits the brows to say. “邪兽也可以拥有这种能力吗？”安德莉亚皱眉道。 The opposite party smiling face obstructs, „...... hybrid species is quite probably special.” 对方笑容一窒,“呃……大概混合种比较特殊吧。” At this time, went to witch of cavern deep place also exactly to return to the ground, except seven people beyond originally, shoulder of Ash were many a blue hair female. 此时,前往洞穴深处的女巫也恰好返回了地面,除开原本的七人外,灰烬的肩头还多了一名蓝发女子。 „Is she praying for rescue in ruins?” Andrea welcomed goes forward to say. “她就是遗迹中的求救者？”安德莉亚迎上前道。 „Right,” Tilly nods, „related in detail concrete situation to Far Gaze (airship) on again, treats for a long time in this forest, I feel more restless. Right, what dangerous situation hasn't above met?” “没错,”提莉点点头,“具体情况到远望号上再细说,在这片森林里待得越久,我就感到越不安。对了,上面没有遇到什么危险情况吧？” „Evil Beast Hybrid(s) that came several to feel strange, but died,” Nightingale shrugged. “来了几只奇怪的混合种邪兽,不过都已经死了,”夜莺耸耸肩。 The hot-air balloon quick gasification lifts off, the hanging basket crosses the treetop peak, starts to move to the small town direction. At this moment, Silvie exuded one to call out in alarm, „day, what was below that? Evil Beast?” 热气球很快充气升空,吊篮越过树梢顶端,开始向小镇方向移动。就在这时,希尔维发出了一声惊呼,“天呐,下面那都是些什么？邪兽吗？” „Evil Beast?” The Andrea probe head looks to the ruins direction, anything has not actually seen. “邪兽？”安德莉亚探头向遗迹方向望去,却什么也没有看到。 It is not right, in the ground really has the thing to move, poured in the monster corpse of ground has been short of the half suddenly, the black bloodstain was stepped on disperses \; Some soil and snow intersection point can see strange swaying from side to side, seems like ordinary by the drinking glass view thing \; If not examine carefully, is very difficult to note these changes. 不对,地面上确实有东西在移动,原先倒在地上的怪物尸体忽然少了半截,黑色的血迹被踩散了\;一些泥土与积雪的交界处能看到诡异的扭动,就像是透过玻璃杯观察事物一般\;如果不细看的话,很难注意到这些变化。 „Is that strange hybrid species,” Nightingale careless said/tunnel, „probably about over a hundred, in rushing to be first runs toward the cavern in...... Only was been big by that the insect attraction, wants to play knife and fork?” She has had a yawn, „these have not related with us.” “又是那种奇怪的混合种,”夜莺漫不经心地道,“大概有上百只左右,都在争先恐后的往洞穴里跑……难道是被那只大虫子吸引,想要饱餐一顿？”她打了个哈欠,“不过这些都和我们没有关系了。” …… ……
