The ray that raises in the wilderness is actually very weak , compared with the land of this length and breadth, its quantity are also miserable, however even so, in this short several minutes, Melitta still felt that they as if flooded the complete field of vision- she is even hard to transfer oneself line of sight. 在旷野中升起的光芒其实很微弱,与这片广袤的大地比起来,其数量也少得可怜,然而即便如此,在这短暂的几分钟里,梅丽塔仍然感觉它们仿佛充斥了自己全部的视野-她甚至难以转开自己的视线。 After a while, some rays extinguished temporarily, but remaining was still maintaining, in this cold dim „polar region at midnight” such as star splendor sparkle. 过了一会,有一些光芒暂时熄灭了,但剩下的仍然在维持,在这个寒冷昏暗的“极地午夜”中如星辉般闪耀着。 „That side that- most distant place, in that at the foot of the mountain, there possibly is another camp,” Noletta also stares the big eye looks at distant place, she points at a field of vision end bunch of flame, on the face brings an excitement, „can you see? Several small light source thereby migrations, that perhaps is the team of patrol!” “那边那个-最远处,在那座山脚下,那里可能是另外一个营地,”诺蕾塔同样瞪大眼睛看着远方,她指着视野尽头的一簇火光,脸上带着一丝兴奋,“你能看到么？有几个较小的光源在那附近移动,那说不定就是巡逻的队伍！” „I saw, I saw,” Melitta said repeatedly, „also has east the camp, the direction of beforehand Luse river valley, there also raised a moment ago several fireballs...... perhaps is a small number of survivors gathers one......” “我看到了,我看到了,”梅丽塔连声说道,“还有营地东边,以前的鲁斯河谷的方向,那里刚才也升起了好几个火球……或许是少数幸存者聚集到了一起……” Noletta is peaceful, for a very long time is gazing at these places, crossed broke for a long time silent: „Now they should be able to insist for a long time......” 诺蕾塔安静下来,久久地注视着那些地方,过了很长时间才打破沉默:“现在他们应该可以坚持更久了……” Melitta flexure sent difficultly, suddenly does not know should reply anything, long time suppresses several syllables: „Yes, truly is this......” 梅丽塔挠了挠头发,一时间不知道该回答些什么,良久才憋出几个音节:“是啊,确实是这样……” ...... …… The flame that on high sentry post tower, soars to the heavens flaming is burning under the assistance of pressurizing unit, although the cold wind from coastal direction howls as before, is actually not able to blow out this dazzling roaring flame, Balogher stands by the pressurizing unit, after confirming these things can the stable running, gives other Dragon race here matter, turned around to leave whistled tower. 高高的哨塔上,冲天的火焰在增压装置的辅助下熊熊燃烧着,尽管来自海岸方向的寒风依旧呼啸,却始终无法吹灭这耀眼的烈焰,巴洛格尔站在增压装置旁边,直到确认了这些东西能够稳定运行之后,才把这里的事情交给其他龙族,转身离开了哨塔。 He arrives in a nearby stage, here, Andal and Heragor are standing in the night wind, is looking into the direction of distant plain , other Red Dragon stand in the stage edge, is recording anything with total concentration. 他来到附近的一座高台上,在这里,安达尔和赫拉戈尔正站在夜风中,眺望着远方平原的方向,又有另外一些红龙站在高台边缘,正聚精会神地记录着什么。 „Did you see a moment ago these signals?” Andal hears the sound of footsteps that hears behind, first turns the head to say to Balogher, „also imagines us are more than!” “你看到刚才那些信号了吗？”安达尔听到身后传来的脚步声,第一个转头对巴洛格尔说道,“比我们想象得还多一些！” „I saw, but surely does not have the clarity that you look,” Balogher could not bear show smile- he even felt oneself in 1000 have not smiled, „whistled tower that side column of flame to be bright, somewhat affected my line of sight- like me said that was one pile very grand ‚bonfire’.” “我看到了,但肯定没有你们看的清楚,”巴洛格尔忍不住露出了笑容-他甚至觉得自己已经一千年不曾这么笑过了,“哨塔那边的火柱非常明亮,有些影响我的视线-就像我说的,那可是一堆非常盛大的‘篝火’。” „We have taken down the position that presents the signal,” Heragor said, „said honestly, quite portion very far or very dangerous place, was unable to send out the team to search depending on the camp current situation, but this at least pointed out the direction to us, so long as here situation is improved slightly, we can send the team to aid are stranded the compatriots in these ruins.” “我们已经记下了出现信号的方位,”赫拉戈尔说道,“坦白说,其中相当一部分都在很远或者很危险的地方,凭营地目前的情况还无法派出队伍去搜索,但这至少给我们指明了方向,只要这里的情况稍有好转,我们就能派队伍去援助被困在那些废墟中的同胞。” „In addition a important point- we determined existences of other survivor camps,” Andal then said that „had at least one beacon-fire to reveal the obvious camp characteristics: The scale is bigger, the duration is longer, the surroundings have other activity signals, this is not a small number of dragons can achieve. Looks at direction there to be Catto permits, there has the firm factory and underground bunker, a very deep mine pit, the mine shaft is the node location of omega system, the survivor depends on the probability that these facilities survive to be very high.” “除此之外还有更重要的一点-我们确定了其他幸存者营地的存在,”安达尔接着说道,“有至少一处烽火表现出了明显的营地特征:规模更大,持续时间更长,周围存在其他活动信号,这不是少数龙就能做到的。看方向那里应该是阿卡托许,那里有坚固的工厂和地下掩体,还有一处非常非常深的矿井,井下原本是欧米伽系统的一处节点所在地,幸存者依托那些设施存活下来的概率很高。” Balogher has a hope: „We can now......” 巴洛格尔带着一丝希冀:“我们现在能……” „Cannot, be too far . Moreover the middle is away from the element to wreak havoc the blockade belt/bring that gravity loses control,” Heragor shakes the head, „, but we can develop the line of communication in the wilderness slowly. In any event, determined existences of other camps are most important.” “不能,太远了,而且中间隔着元素肆虐、重力失控的封锁带,”赫拉戈尔摇摇头,“但我们可以慢慢在旷野中开拓出交通线。无论如何,确定了其他营地的存在才是最重要的。” Balogher nods gently, then he showed the look of ponder, said in the thinking slowly: „Determined more survivors, can we also on this/should consideration long-term future...... by the camp current situation, how many clansmen we support?” 巴洛格尔轻轻点头,接着他露出了沉思的神色,在思索中慢慢说道:“确定了更多的幸存者,我们也就该考虑更长远的未来了……以营地目前的情况,我们能养活多少族人？” „To be honest, less optimistic,” Andal sighed, „ I and Dukemoore have discussed this issue. Now our food source is mainly several warehouse and a food processing factory that neighbor discover, “说实话,不容乐观,”安达尔叹了口气,“我和杜克摩尔讨论过这个问题了。现在我们的食物来源主要是附近发现的几座仓库和一座食物加工厂, Inside has the portion cargo is not burnt down and contamination, they can maintain one to two months of consumption, in addition the camp also sent out a team to go to the coastline the direction, we can found some commodities from the sea as well as nearby islands, but the quantity will not be many: The gravity storm tore the continent edge, the entire offshore area is greatly affected. „compares, instead is the issue of fresh water is quite easy to solve, besides can filter the purification from the sea water, but can also seize nearby wander low rank water element- must be careful that do not do too overdone, triggering the element rebellion is very troublesome.” 里面有一部分货物未被烧毁和污染过,它们能维持一到两个月的消耗,此外营地还派出了一支队伍前往海岸线的方向,我们可以从海中以及附近的岛屿上找到一些物资,但数量不会太多:重力风暴撕裂了大陆边缘,整个近海区都受到很大影响。“相较而言,反而是淡水的问题比较容易解决,除了可以从海水中过滤净化之外,还可以抓捕附近游荡的低阶水元素-只是要小心别做得太过火,引发元素暴动会很麻烦。” „Therefore, in a short time we are unable to achieve self-sufficiently, even if can obtain the stable food supply in farther islands, after that must be very long,” Balogher sinking sound said, „before that everyone will starve, the only means of maintaining in these were buried the ruins in the warehouse and factory unearth...... this is not not possible to achieve the stable supplies.” “所以,短期内我们无法做到自给自足,即便能在更远一些的岛屿上获得稳定的食物供应,那也要很久以后了,”巴洛格尔沉声说道,“在那之前,大家都会挨饿,维持下去的唯一办法就是在那些被掩埋进废墟的仓库和工厂中挖掘……这根本不可能做到稳定补给。” „Moreover must pay attention to a point: Almost no Dragon race understood how to plant and harvest the crops without dependence automatic system, do not raise in losing the situation of ecology vault and in weather controller, Arctic Regions most places are unable the achieve agricultural production,” Andal saying that „the harvest that hunts for is limited, gains the grain even to process the grain skill to go to study from the beginning, after losing the automatic farm and fabrication plant, our starts can become incomparably difficult, such aspect continues, survival Dragon race has to look at...... warmer Human Race world.” “而且还要注意一点:几乎没有龙族懂得如何在不依靠自动系统的情况下种植和收获作物,更不要提在失去生态穹顶和天气控制器的情况下,北极地区大部分地方本身就无法实现农业生产,”安达尔说道,“捕猎的收获有限,获取粮食甚至加工粮食的技能都要从头去学,失去了自动农场和合成工厂之后,我们的起步会变得无比艰难,这样的局面持续下去,幸存的龙族将不得不把目光转向……更加温暖的人类世界。” The expression on Balogher face changes slightly: „What you meant was that......” 巴洛格尔脸上的表情微微变化:“你们的意思是……” „With its waits for the situation to continue to deteriorate, waits for the portion compatriot in not being able to see the situation of hope takes risks the choice bad plan, we might as well make anything on own initiative,” the eye of Heragor looks at Balogher said, „ the Tollund close time had ended, since we lived, should find the way to go facing these changes. “与其等着情况继续恶化,等着一部分同胞在看不到希望的情况下铤而走险选择下策,我们不如主动做些什么,”赫拉戈尔看着巴洛格尔的眼睛说道,“塔尔隆德封闭的时代已经结束了,既然我们活了下来,就应该想办法去面对这些变化。 „ For 1 million years, our compatriots have never faced ‚change’, they do not know the lifestyle besides cradle, therefore now is a very crucial time- we must catch up in the forefront, must become representative that Tollund earliest and outside world contacts ‚’, establishes one type by this with the new order of exchange, this new order should be civilization, and is ordered. “一百万年来,我们的同胞都从未面对过‘变化’,他们不知道除了摇篮之外的生存方式,因此现在便是一个非常关键的时刻-我们必须赶在最前面,必须成为塔尔隆德最早与外界接触的‘代表’,以此去奠定一种和外界交流的新秩序,这个新秩序应该是文明且有序的。 „I had discussed with Andal a moment ago, Dragon race must return to the stage in the world, must with the Human Race contact, on other wisdom race contacts with Loren Continent. We truly need to help, but we are not go begging, we must put out something to receive in exchange for the scarce commodity, even is scarce existing space- all these must abide by the principle of inequitable exchange.” “我刚才已经和安达尔商议过,龙族要回到世界的舞台上,要和人类接触,和洛伦大陆上的其他智慧种族接触。我们确实需要帮助,但我们不是去乞讨,我们要拿出一些东西去换取紧缺的物资,甚至是紧缺的生存空间-这一切都要遵循等价交换的原则。” Nearby Andal is listening peacefully, after the Heragor voice falls, he has the complex expression to sigh: „Inequitable exchange...... we owe many debts now.” 一旁的安达尔安静地听着,等到赫拉戈尔话音落下之后,他才带着复杂的表情叹了口气:“等价交换啊……现在我们可是欠下许多债务了。” Balogher responded quickly: „You say...... Mithril Treasury?” 巴洛格尔很快反应过来:“你是说……秘银宝库？” „To this world, Mithril Treasury has survived in name only- besides establishing is possibly also preserving something in the network outside Tollund, the treasury headquarters and all prime depots has unravelled, at least Agundor situation so. We owe a big account now, this debt even is not only restricted in Main Material World......” “对这个世界而言,秘银宝库已经名存实亡了-除了设置在塔尔隆德之外的网点可能还保存着一些东西,宝库的总部和所有主要仓库都已经灰飞烟灭,至少阿贡多尔情况如此。我们如今欠下了一大笔账,这债务甚至不仅限于主物质世界……” „That, Heragor said slowly”, „Great Dragon keeps the commitment, we owe many also many, can put out anything to put out anything.” “那就慢慢还,”赫拉戈尔说道,“巨龙恪守承诺,我们欠多少就还多少,能拿出什么就拿出什么。” He used a low and deep serious tone to say these, Balogher listened with thinking from this tone firmly, his looks at at present this old friend- 1.87 million years ago, he was the Great Dragon leader, 1.87 million years later today, he was still maintaining Dragon race all with oneself way, including the Dragon race survival, the self-respect of also including Dragon race only remaining. 他用一种低沉严肃的语气说着这些,巴洛格尔从这种语气中听出了坚决与深思熟虑,他看着眼前这位老友-从一百八十七万年前,他便是巨龙的领袖,一百八十七万年后的今天,他仍然在用自己的方式维持着龙族的一切,包括龙族的生存,也包括龙族仅剩的自尊。 „What do we have to take now?” Silent a moment later, Balogher asked that „on this piece of wasteland supported our things to be insufficient continually.” “我们现在还剩下什么可以拿出来的？”沉默片刻之后,巴洛格尔问道,“这片废土上连养活我们自己的东西都不够了。” „Always has thing that can take, Tollund even destroyed, we still have sufficiently the thing that many arouse other race interests. Has the dangerous generation gap besides these technology, we have some to disclose knowledge that in certain warehouses some perhaps also treasures, under the ruins can always dig out some properties, really not good...... we have our flesh and skeleton.” “总有能拿出来的东西,塔尔隆德即便毁灭了,我们也有许多足以引起其他种族兴趣的事物。除了那些存在危险代差的技术之外,我们还有一些可以透露出去的知识,某些仓库中或许还有些珍宝,废墟下面总能挖出些财物,实在不行……我们还有自己的血肉和骨骼。” The Heragor language fast is very gentle, the look is steadfast, his facial expression was disclosing his attitude- that is he for a bottom line that Great Dragon civilization draws. 赫拉戈尔的语速很平缓,眼神却坚定不移,他的神情透露着他的态度-那是他为巨龙文明划定的一条底线。 Tollund perhaps dropped down, but Great Dragon is also standing, Dragon race once was on this star most powerful civilization, was these for 1 million years successfully worked loose civilization of Gods shackles only, even if the aspect goes down in the world now hence, he did not allow oneself ethnic group to move toward degenerate Dragon race will not become the thief, will not become the robber, will not live on dishonorably like the wild animal. 塔尔隆德或许倒下了,但巨龙还站着,龙族曾是这颗星球上最强大的文明,更是这一百万年来唯一成功挣脱了神明枷锁的文明,即使如今局面落魄至此,他也不允许自己的族群走向堕落-龙族不会成为小偷,不会成为强盗,更不会如野兽般苟活。 Dragon race meets upright and frank to return to the stage in the world. 龙族会堂堂正正地回到世界的舞台上。 „Since you have decided that I naturally support,” Balogher nods, „that since wants with Human Race as well as other wisdom race contacts, we must have a plan. First needs to find to understand that the Loren Continent each race candidate, next, is the goal of seeking for contacts earlier, finally...... we also need to collect some intelligence, how must do to understand now the Loren Continent situation.” “既然你们已经决定了,那我自然支持,”巴洛格尔点了点头,“那么,既然想要和人类以及其他智慧种族接触,我们就得有个计划。首先是需要找到了解洛伦大陆各个种族的人选,其次,是寻找前期接触的目标,最后……我们还需要收集一些情报,要搞明白现在洛伦大陆的情况如何。” „The Loren Continent situation,” Andal is hesitating, „truly should first investigate. The variation rate of outside world wants quick many compared with the rhythm that we are familiar with, but now they change the quickest time.” “洛伦大陆的情况么,”安达尔沉吟着,“确实应该先调查一下。外面世界的变化速度比我们所熟悉的节奏要快的多,而现在又正是他们变化最快的时刻。” Is saying, he while slightly nodded of: „As for understanding the Loren Continent each race candidate as well as earlier contact goal, I have the general idea.” 一边说着,他一边微微点了点头:“至于了解洛伦大陆各个种族的人选以及前期的接触目标,我已经有大概想法了。” „That is good,” Balogher shouted the tone, „ I will also go into action- after treating the camp is stabler, I return to Sacred Dragon Duchy. Now Sacred Dragon Duchy has made the contact with Loren Continent human country, there can also become Tollund to understand a Loren Continent window. “那就好,”巴洛格尔呼了口气,“我也会行动起来-待营地稳定一些之后,我就返回圣龙公国。如今圣龙公国已经和洛伦大陆的人类国度建立联系,那里也可以成为塔尔隆德了解洛伦大陆的一个窗口。 „In addition, although that side the duchy crops deliver do not have many to be extra, but I should also be able to raise some grain and drugs. However I probably also require some extra time to do some preparatory work in that side, after all Dragon descendant...... have not prepared for facing Tollund.” “此外,虽然公国那边的作物产出也没多少富余,但我应该还可以筹措出一些粮食和药品。不过我在那边可能还需要些额外的时间做些准备工作,毕竟龙裔们……并未做好面对塔尔隆德的准备。” At this point, this dragon blood Grand Duke cannot bear somewhat regrettably: „Only the Loren Continent winter, the grain storage situation in northern area should be limited pitifully now, in a short time only depends on the strength of duchy is very probably difficult from the neighboring Human Race country to purchase the sufficient grain...... I only to do everything possible.” 说到这里,这位龙血大公又忍不住有些遗憾:“只可惜现在正是洛伦大陆的冬季,北方地区的储粮情况应该都有限,短时间内仅凭公国的力量大概很难从邻近的人类国家购买到足够的粮食……我只能尽力而为。” „Dragon descendant......” the Heragor expression is somewhat complex, long time sends out a sigh, „that hills are not the place of commodity productivity, must provide for consumption huge primitive Dragon race to Dragon descendant is very big burden, therefore you do what one can well. In the final analysis, we have also never thought must depend upon the Sacred Dragon Duchy strength......” “龙裔们……”赫拉戈尔的表情有些复杂,良久才发出一声叹息,“那片群山并不是什么物资丰饶的地方,要供养消耗巨大的原始龙类对龙裔们将是很大的负担,所以你量力而行就好。说到底,我们本来也从未想过要依靠圣龙公国的力量……” „For our rash plans, these Dragon descendant has undertaken too many things in the situation of knowing nothing,” Andal is sighing similarly, „we should become their asylums and direction, in the end actually instead became their burden.” “为了我们这胆大妄为的计划,那些龙裔已经在一无所知的情况下承担太多东西了,”安达尔同样感叹着,“我们本应该成为他们的庇护和指引,到头来却反而成了他们的负担。” Balogher shakes the head: „ Since many years, I am gazing at Sacred Dragon Duchy, I am looks at Dragon descendant arrive little today. The gene adjustment took away their wings, even enables whole time in their life only by the Human Race shape survival, but Dragon descendant never forgets Tollund- among us shares the same roots. 巴洛格尔摇了摇头:“多年以来,我都注视着圣龙公国,我是看着龙裔们一点点走到今天的。基因调整夺去了他们的翅膀,甚至让他们一生中的大部分时间都只能以人类形态生存,但龙裔从未遗忘塔尔隆德-我们之间血脉相连。 „perhaps not all Dragon descendant can understand matter that we handle, but I believe that in them truth of great majority after knowing will choose to help own female clan, after all, we are the dragons.” “或许并非所有龙裔都能理解我们所做的事情,但我相信,他们中的大多数在知道真相之后都会选择帮助自己的母族,毕竟,我们都是龙。” After this, in the stage 1 time is peaceful, three leaders were pondering respectively matter that affects long-term, no one has spoken, in air except for howling, but beyond wind sound/rumor, then the inspiring wing sound when only hears the search squad takes off and lands occasionally brings, as well as off and on, music that transmits from the camp deep place. 在这之后,高台上一时间安静下来,三位领袖各自思考着影响长远的事情,以至于谁都没有说话,空气中除了呼啸而过的风声之外,便只传来搜索小队偶尔起降时带来的振翼声,以及断断续续的、从营地深处传来的音乐。 The skylight seemed to be dimmer than before, the stars of twinkle star from are quite close to the curtain of night in that one side sky reappearing, Heragor raised the head, the vision has swept the quiet chilly nighttime sky, he deeply inspires, shouted slowly. 天光似乎比之前更加昏暗了一些,星星点点的繁星从较为接近夜幕的那一侧天空中浮现出来,赫拉戈尔抬起头,目光扫过静谧清冷的夜空,他深深吸了口气,又慢慢呼出来。 But at this moment, his expression suddenly changes. 而就在这时,他的表情突然一变。 „Heragor?” Nearest Andal first detected old friend's change, „you how?” “赫拉戈尔？”距离最近的安达尔最先察觉到了老友的变化,“你怎么了？” „Did you hear the sound?” The Heragor complexion is exceptionally serious, look even dignified to nearly fearful, „did you hear...... ‚It’?” “你们听到声音了么？”赫拉戈尔脸色异常严肃,眼神甚至凝重到近乎可怕,“你们听到……‘祂’了么？” Andal and Balogher had a scare by the Heragor complexion at first, but was then frightened truly by the spoken language of opposite party, even sends out to call out in alarm as if by prior agreement: „‚It’?!” 安达尔和巴洛格尔起先只是被赫拉戈尔的脸色吓了一跳,但紧接着便被对方的言语真正惊吓到了,甚至不约而同地发出惊呼:“‘祂’？！” „Haven't you heard?” The Heragor vision has swept on two old friend faces, seemed confirming their mind is whether normal, „in a moment ago, had the echo of flash to appear.” “你们没有听到么？”赫拉戈尔的目光在两位老友脸上扫过,仿佛是在确认着他们的心智是否正常,“就在刚才,有一瞬间的回响出现。” „No,” Andal also nervous gets up, he confirmed over and over oneself mind situation, makes an effort to shake the head, „I am certain.” “没有,”安达尔也紧张起来,他再三确认了自己心智的情况,才用力摇头,“我可以肯定。” „I have not heard.” The Balogher similar confirmation said. “我也没有听到。”巴洛格尔同样确认道。 Heragor is knitting the brows, confirmed own mind situation, enough after a half minute, he relaxes slightly, the brow that however tightens has not actually loosened. 赫拉戈尔皱着眉,也确认了自身的心智情况,足足半分钟后他才稍微松了口气,然而紧锁的眉头却一点都没有松开。 „Can nervous cause to have the misconception?” Balogher is hesitating asking, „shackles have vanished, this point we have confirmed over and over, so long as the ceremony completes, this process is irreversible.” “会不会是过于紧张导致出现错觉了？”巴洛格尔犹豫着问道,“枷锁已经消失,这一点我们已经再三确认过,而只要仪式完成,这个过程便是不可逆的。” „...... I hope that this is the misconception, but I do not dare easily with ‚misconception’ this word to explain that has any supernatural phenomenon in own mind,” Heragor sinking sound said, „we...... best confirm again.” “……我希望这是错觉,但我不敢轻易用‘错觉’这个词来解释发生在自己心智中的任何异常现象,”赫拉戈尔沉声说道,“我们……最好再确认一下。”
