Newest website: In this world, civilization alternates the multiplication, the wisdom lifeform emerges one after another incessantly, will have massively obviously entirely different wisdom race from the evolution source is then neighbors, Loren Continent, then has such as Human Race, Elf, Dwarf, Fairy, the spirit clan merely about ten wisdom species and quantities more „subspecies”, removed the Elf subspecies related possibly with antiquity period some fission beside, other wisdom race obviously were the products of independent evolution. 最新网址:在这个世界,文明更迭繁衍,智慧生物层出不穷,而且会有大量从进化源头上便明显截然不同的智慧种族比邻而居,仅仅洛伦大陆一处,便有诸如人类、精灵、矮人、妖精、灵族等将近十个智慧物种以及数量更多的“亚种”,刨除精灵的亚种可能与上古时期的某次分裂事件有关之外,其他的智慧种族显然都是独立进化的产物。 If takes a broad view at the remote starry sky, according to intelligence that Enya provides, the civilization quantity of among the group stars breeding went far beyond the Gawain's imagination- more than 100 signals actually do not mean accurate number, that means merely had at least more than 100 civilization to grasp in the past 1000000 years conducted very -long-range signal broadcast in the interstellar technology, but according to the Gawain's idea, perhaps also has many, cannot develop so high civilization survival in that vast group stars. 而若放眼到遥远的星空,根据恩雅所提供的情报,群星之间所孕育出来的文明数量更是远远超过了高文的想象-一百余个信号其实并不意味着准确的数字,那仅仅意味着在过去的1000000年间有至少一百多个文明掌握了在星际间进行超远程信号广播的技术,而根据高文的想法,或许还有更多的、未能发展到如此高度的文明生存在那浩瀚的群星之间。 They are born on oneself parent star, the multiplication, the development, broad astronomy criterion camoflauge the small and weak civilization lights, their vision are unable to look to the distant place, the sound are unable the biography to the distant place, no one knows that their existences, these civilization perhaps have not left a wee bit traces from the birth to withering away in the universe, is similar to Gawain under foot star born and already that season another Season of Civilization traveler who withers away. 他们在自己的母星上诞生,繁衍,发展,广阔的天文尺度遮蔽了弱小文明的灯火,他们的目光无法看向远处,声音也无法传向远方,没有人知道他们的存在,这些文明或许从诞生到消亡都不曾在宇宙中留下一丁点的痕迹,就如同高文脚下这颗星球上已经诞生和已经消亡的那一季又一季文明过客。 These „lights” obviously were excluded from the statistics of Enya. 这些“灯火”显然是被排除在恩雅的统计之外的。 Behind such high civilization density had its reason inevitably, Gawain seriously had not once pondered this issue, even if in the heart emitted permits to have doubts, he has not considered in this aspect too many, but he comes to the Carmel laboratory today, saw arcane energy as well as Carmel that here surged oneself...... bold, and possibly was close to the truth the idea then braving from his heart: 如此之高的文明密度背后必然有其原因,高文一度没有认真思考过这个问题,即便心中冒出了过许疑惑,他也没有在这方面考虑太多,但今天他来到了卡迈尔的实验室,看到了这里涌动的奥术能量以及卡迈尔本人……一个大胆的,且可能接近真相的想法便从他心中冒了出来: If magic tide in universe everywhere, then mana obviously also everywhere, if mana everywhere...... that its perhaps is „catalyzed essential factor that” this world most civilization evolve one. 如果魔潮在宇宙中无处不在,那么魔力显然也无处不在,如果魔力无处不在……那么它或许就是这个世界大部分文明演化的“催化要素”之一。 Gawain fell into the thinking suddenly, Carmel, in the one side looks in the eye, this ancient Arcanist could not bear make noise to inquire: „What did you think of?” 高文突然陷入了思索,卡迈尔在一旁看在眼中,这位古代奥术师忍不住出声询问道:“您想到什么了么？” „I hear you to raise a large number of civilization to flash on and off in the group inter-satellite life and death, suddenly conscious to an issue,” Gawain wakes up from the thinking, has not concealed idea in the heart, „perhaps is existence of mana, expedited quantity so many civilization.” “我听到你提起数量众多的文明在群星间生死明灭,突然意识到一个问题,”高文从思索中醒来,并未隐瞒自己心中的想法,“或许是魔力的存在,催生出了数量如此多的文明。” Carmel has not done the approach of clear Gawain this jump suddenly: „Is your meaning......?” 卡迈尔一时间没搞明白高文这跳跃的思路:“您的意思是……？” „You whether has listened to such a Theory civilization the development process, with absorption and use of energy,” Gawain are explaining own mentality patiently, „ is higher to the efficiency of energy, a civilization level of development is also higher, but its corresponding, if an energy of the world is active, is easily by absorption and transformation, then civilization of this world will develop is also more rapid, “你是否听过这样一个理论-文明的发展进程,伴随着对能量的汲取和利用,”高文耐心地讲解着自己的思路,“对能量的利用效率越高,一个文明的发展层次也就越高,而与之相对应的,如果一个世界的能量越是活跃,越是容易被汲取和转化,那么这个世界的文明发展起来也就会更迅速, Or is easier to have the progress on technology, even strides. 或者说更容易产生技术上的进步,甚至跨步。 „mana is everywhere, according to our known all sorts of clues, the rule of this world must be the average is consistent, then on other stars must have mana. We know that this is one type the strength that is easy to extract and transform, even in the civilization rank also very primitive period, wisdom race of rich talent can urge mana to come achieve such as to make a fire, transporting, mold by oneself directly and other effects. Naturally, this will instead cause the technology progressive process to be suppressed by convenient production activities under certain circumstances, so long as the time is appropriate, it will make a wisdom ethnic group develop rapidly......” “魔力无处不在,根据我们已知的种种线索,这个世界的规则应当是平均一致的,那么其他星球上也应当存在魔力。我们都知道这是一种很容易提取和转化的力量,甚至在文明等级还非常原始的时期,富有天赋的智慧种族就能凭借自身直接驱使魔力来实现诸如取火、搬运、塑造等各种效果。当然,这在某些情况下反而会导致技术进步的过程被过于便利的生产活动所抑制,但只要时机合适,它就会让一个智慧族群迅速发展起来……” „The civilization sophistication and capacity usage ratio are closely linked, but the use difficulty of energy decided the civilization development speed......” Carmel understood rapidly the Gawain's meaning, is musing, „very reasonable theory, but...... was mana easy the strength of extracting and transforming?” “文明的发达程度与能量利用率息息相关,而能量的利用难度决定了文明的发展速度么……”卡迈尔迅速理解了高文的意思,若有所思地说着,“很有道理的理论,不过……魔力原来是非常容易提取和转化的力量么？” In the tone of this Grandmaster arcane brings a confusion, if he also had the eyebrow this time certainly to frown. He lifts the arm, controls mana that in the air is drifting away to produce the resonance, made the spark in nearby two energy drive pipes: „To me is actually not difficult, but to most people, must control mana to be very difficult.” 这位奥术大师的语气中带着一丝困惑,如果他还有眉毛的话这时候一定已经皱起了眉头。他抬起手臂,控制着空气中游离的魔力产生共鸣,在附近的两根能量导管中制造出了噼里啪啦的火花:“对我而言倒是不难,但对大部分人而言,要控制魔力应该还是挺困难的。” Gawain hear of this saying first stare, then responded: In his eyes, mana of this world is really one type facilitates the unbelievable energy, everywhere also inexhaustible, but regarding the life race of this world, they in mana to nature had become accustomed, naturally cannot feel specially oneself lives in a how advantageous environment- at least regarding the development of civilization, this is the advantageous liberal condition. 高文听这话先是一愣,紧接着便反应过来:在他自己眼中,这个世界的魔力实在是一种便利到难以置信的能源,无处不在还取之不尽,但对于生活在这个世界的种族而言,他们早已对自然界中的魔力习以为常了,自然不会特别感觉到自己生活在一个多么得天独厚的环境中-至少对于文明的发展而言,这是得天独厚的优渥条件。 But is good because of this is not the key question, he slightly crossed this quickly „the deviation in cognition”: „At least in my opinion, mana is a very convenient energy, but in the world everywhere mana catalyzed the development of civilization obviously.” 但好在这并不是什么关键问题,他很快略过了这点“认知上的偏差”:“至少在我看来,魔力是一种十分便利的能量,而世界上无处不在的魔力显然催化了文明的发展。” Carmel lowers the head to hesitate, after the moment, suddenly said: „perhaps it, not only catalyzed the development of civilization- it might also catalyze the birth of wisdom lifeform, even picked up the birth speed of life.” 卡迈尔低头沉吟着,片刻后突然说道:“或许它不只是催化了文明的发展-它还有可能也催化了智慧生物的诞生,甚至加快了生命的诞生速度。” He spread out to be full the arcane brilliance arm, in both hands is reappearing the pale blue projection, what in the image presented was the appearances of various lifeform, as well as their anatomic structures: „ Druid of Gondor time have a theory, they think in the nature rich magic power enlighten one of the wisdom lifeform mind important factors, Spark Age big Druid Grandmaster Raymond has even conducted massive organization foster and catalyzed experiment based on this, proved the nervous system of Human Race, Elf and spirit clan, although in the structure has the difference, but will have the response to mana similarly, even is unable the perception mana average person, their nervous systems actually still to be the meeting mana in passive receive nature stimulates and makes the feedback frequently- in fact this feedback many mind kind of magic spell achieve foundations. 他摊开充盈着奥术光辉的手臂,双手间浮现出了淡蓝色的投影,影像上呈现出的是各种生物的样貌,以及它们的解剖结构:“刚铎时代的德鲁伊们有一个理论,他们认为自然界中丰沛的魔法力量是启迪智慧生物心智的重要因素之一,星火年代的大德鲁伊普瑞曼大师甚至据此进行过大量的组织培养和催化实验,证明了人类、精灵和灵族的神经系统虽然结构上存在区别,但同样会对魔力产生反应,即便是无法感知魔力的普通人,他们的神经系统其实也是会时刻被动接受自然界中的魔力刺激并作出反馈的-事实上这种反馈正是许多心智类法术的实现基础。 „On the other hand, early Elf scholars had proposed ‚mana is the origin of life’ guess, they think the active energy environment the natural material transformation for ‚vital factors’ pre-conditions, although this theory without the confirmation, in many years, its supporter has been but numerous......” “另一方面,更早期的精灵学者们则提出过‘魔力即是生命之源’的猜测,他们认为活跃的能量环境是将自然物质转化为‘生命要素’的前提条件,虽然这一理论未经证实,但在许多年里,它的支持者一直众多……” „mana, this active and rich energy is a catalyzed strength in universe, it makes the biological phenomena be able born on numerous stars, and greatly speed that sped up the wisdom species to evolve, and bred a large number of civilization finally,” the Gawain look was serious, the voice is summarizing low and deep and Carmel common speculation, „considered that the magic tide essence was ‚destroys viewer’, it will not cause the entire ecosystem beyond viewer to shuffle, therefore new civilization only required very short time on to rise and certainly develop in the ecological environment after magic tide to highly...... in light of this. Repeat in cycles, the generation is unceasing.” “魔力,这种活跃且丰沛的能量是宇宙中的一股催化力量,它让生命现象在众多星球上得以诞生,且大大加快了智慧物种演化的速度,并最终孕育出了数量众多的文明,”高文神色严肃,嗓音低沉地总结着自己与卡迈尔共同的猜测,“而考虑到魔潮的本质是‘摧毁观察者’,它并不会导致观察者之外的整个生态系统洗牌,所以新的文明只需要很短的时间就可以在魔潮之后的生态环境中重新崛起并发展到一定高度……就此循环往复,世代不绝。” „The appearance of magic tide is also related with mana,” Carmel said in the one side, „at least ‚Deep Blue Well explodes’ some intelligence that can baffle small magic tide as well as Dragon race sharing to us can support this point.” “魔潮的出现也和魔力有关,”卡迈尔在一旁说道,“至少‘深蓝之井爆炸可以阻遏小魔潮’以及龙族共享给我们的部分情报都可以佐证这一点。” In the ancient times the Arcanist voice fell, Gawain has not actually opened the mouth suddenly, his surface sank the water, all answers and clues gathered the vortex that revolved unceasingly in his heart, but some of this universe „truth”, clearly presented in his eyes: 古代奥术师的话音落下,高文却一时间没有开口,他面沉似水,所有的答案和线索都在他心中汇聚成了不断旋转的旋涡,而这个宇宙的某种“真相”,也更加清晰地呈现在他眼中: mana accelerated all, including the civilization birth, including the civilization destruction, it is „is pushing” the strength, all wisdom ethnic groups that in this universe is born were coerced in this strength, by extremely high speed multiplication development, and withers away at the extremely high speed one after another- once, impression of Gawain to the universe is ice-cold slow, this impression came from in his hometown, in the face of the astronomy criterion, the change of all things frequently calculates by ten thousand years of even hundred million years, but civilization lights that accidentally is born in the ice-cold universe, so slowly. Appears and leads the way sluggishly, even until withering away, in boundless group star also possible only then a they bunch of weak tiny flame. 魔力加速了一切,既包括文明的诞生,也包括文明的毁灭,它是一股“推着走”的力量,这个宇宙中诞生的所有智慧族群都被裹挟在这股力量中,以极高的速度繁衍发展,并以极高的速度一轮又一轮地消亡-曾经,高文对宇宙的印象是冰冷迟缓的,这种印象源自于他的故乡,在天文尺度面前,万事万物的变化都动辄以万年甚至亿年计算,而偶然在冰冷宇宙中诞生的文明灯火,也如此迟缓地出现并慢吞吞地前行,甚至直到消亡,茫茫群星中也可能只有他们一簇微弱渺小的火光。 However now, his conscious to the world that own present survives with that entirely different- this world was pot fierce hot soup, all things roasts to be accelerated at roasting of mana, here, a wisdom ethnic group must develop to be very easy, so long as technology presented the breakthrough, the mortals from led the way the control machinery touching sky even only to need one step to span on the ground ignorantly, but at the same time...... civilization finally end also easy many. 然而现在,他意识到自己如今所生存的这个世界与那截然不同-这个世界是一锅酷烈的热汤,万事万物都在魔力的炙烤下被加速了,在这里,一个智慧族群要发展起来很容易,只要技术出现突破,凡人们从在地上愚昧前行到驾驭机械触摸天空甚至只需要一步跨越,但与此同时……文明的终末也容易的多。 But many wisdom race sorrowful then lies in this: They cannot keep up with this quick rhythm the train, cannot avoid this acceleration to run the innumerable trap, they in one could not notice that on the key road dashes about wildly, a misstep or will settle down to be beyond redemption same place. 而许多智慧种族的悲哀便在于此:他们跟不上这趟快节奏的列车,也避不开这场加速跑中数不清的陷阱,他们在一条看不到重点的路上狂奔,一步踏错或原地驻足都将万劫不复。 Therefore, in the starry sky is proliferating twinkle civilization glimmer, almost does not have one to change into the bright lights, glimmer that in that prosperous alternates crowded and rapidly, actually proliferates civilization to decline the later tombstone. 于是,星空中遍布着闪烁的文明微光,却几乎无一能化为明亮的灯火,在那繁盛密集、迅速更迭的微光之间,其实遍布着文明衰亡之后的墓碑。 „What are you thinking?” Carmel saw that Gawain has not opened the mouth for a very long time, finally could not bear break silent. “您在想什么？”卡迈尔看到高文久久没有开口,终于忍不住打破了沉默。 Gawain shakes the head gently, the voice is saying low and drawn out: „I am thinking whether we are coerced by mana are dashing about wildly forward......” 高文轻轻摇了摇头,嗓音低缓地说着:“我只是在想,我们是否算是被魔力裹挟着向前狂奔……” „...... Spark Age philosopher Gera Moss had said that world all living things will certainly be born the environment to coerce by oneself, was not we chose this world, but was this world breeds us,” the Carmel silent moment, said suddenly, he lifted an arm, the bright arcane spark jumped in his Runic Armour piece performance, „mana...... you should know, it was ubiquitous, we were impossible to be separated from it to develop.” “……星火年代的哲人格拉莫斯曾经说过,世间众生都必将被自己诞生所处的环境所裹挟,不是我们选择了这个世界,而是这个世界孕育出了我们,”卡迈尔沉默片刻,突然如此说道,他抬起一只手臂,明亮的奥术火花在他的符文护甲片表现跳跃,“魔力……您应该知道,它无处不在,我们也不可能脱离它而发展。” The fish life in the water, the dehydration dies, perhaps it will evolve to will happen one day with the lung breath, but that is not the present mortals can consider obviously. 鱼生活在水中,脱水即死,或许终有一天它将进化到用肺呼吸,但那显然不是如今的凡人们可以考虑的。 „You said is reasonable,” the Gawain slight nod, the vision actually also falls in the Carmel behind energy drive pipe and element pond, „what, therefore I now especially am then curious...... the mana essence am?” “你说的有道理,”高文微微点头,目光却随之落在卡迈尔身后的能量导管以及元素池上,“所以我现在便尤为好奇……魔力的本质到底是什么？” Carmel has turned around, the pure flame class/flow in energy drive pipe ascends, the brilliance that sends out is also brightly chilly: „ I and Grandmaster Velania think that it is a wave, one type fills the air in the entire universe, penetrates the photostar, spans the space and time fluctuation, so far we observed all sorts of indirect phenomena also support this guess, including our communication technology, including the magic energy obelisk ‚mana field’, but until now, we cannot find that key evidence...... 卡迈尔转过身,能量导管中的纯净焰流升腾起来,散发出的光辉明亮却又清冷:“我和薇兰妮亚大师都认为它是一种波,一种弥漫在整个宇宙中,穿透星体,跨越时空的波动,目前为止我们所观察到的种种间接现象也都支持这种猜测,包括我们的通讯技术,也包括魔能方尖碑的‘魔力场’,但至今为止,我们都未能找到那个关键证据…… „I have continuously been testing high-puritier arcane energy source, to reduce it and in the space as far as possible the interactive probability of clutter, Silver Empire scholars is finding the way to make some type ‚darkroom’ effect, and has iris action energy field to shield mana noise in environment through anti- magic material, our efforts cannot say do not have the effect, but the distance saw that the result will never be.” “我一直在不断测试更高纯度的奥术能量源,以尽可能减少它和空间中杂波的交互概率,白银帝国的学者们则在想办法制造某种‘暗室’效果,通过反魔法材料和具备阻隔作用的能量场来屏蔽掉环境中的魔力噪波,我们的努力不能说没有效果,但距离看到成效还遥遥无期。” „Was mana noise in environment still the non-solution difficult problem?” Gawain frowns, he then knows this difficult problem several years ago, moreover he also knows, in fact Silver Elf before about half a century has overcome this difficulty in the attempt, „in this world doesn't have does not have mana noise ‚natural environment’?” “环境中的魔力噪波仍然是个无解的难题么？”高文皱起眉头,他在几年前便知道这个难题,而且他还知道,事实上在将近半个世纪之前白银精灵们就已经在尝试攻破这个难关了,“这个世界上难道就不存在没有魔力噪波的‘天然环境’么？” „It is a pity that we had not found the clue in this aspect to the present,” in the Carmel sound brings losing of not covering up, „mana is everywhere, noise is also everywhere, we had also imagined, if leaves this star, whether in the outer space has ‚purely’ mana vacuum, but we know now, even if enters the universe, among the group stars is also flooding mana...... I think, it perhaps on such as our world ‚bottom color’ general, or is our world some lowest level structure mapping macroscopically-, so long as we also survive in this world, on not being able to go round. It.” “遗憾的是,我们到现在也没找到这方面的线索,”卡迈尔的声音中带着不加掩饰的失落,“魔力无处不在,噪波也无处不在,原本我们还想象过如果离开这颗星球,太空中是否存在‘纯净’的魔力真空,但现在我们知道了,哪怕进入宇宙,群星之间也是充斥着魔力的……我想,它恐怕就如我们这个世界的‘底色’一般,或者是我们这个世界某种最底层结构在宏观上的映射-只要我们还生存在这个世界上,就绕不开它。” The structure mapping of macroscopically world lowest level? 世界最底层的结构在宏观上的映射？ This seems like a guess that has the profound meaning, Gawain knit the brows to think deeply about a meeting, actually no harvest, he shook the head: „You think that side Dragon race will have the answer? technology that they once grasped is much more advanced than us, moreover accumulated 1 million years of knowledge- present many knowledge ‚unsealing’.” 这似乎是个颇具深意的猜测,高文皱眉思索了一会,却没什么收获,他摇摇头:“你认为龙族那边会有答案么？他们曾经掌握的技术比我们先进得多,而且积累了百万年的知识-如今许多知识都‘解封’了。” „In fact I have inquired, when previous Dragon race Envoy visit the Cecil city, my pay a visit in them a member,” Carmel has been saying, shakes the head, „what accidental/surprised is the progress in this aspect actually also with us almost...... they thinks that the mana essence truly is a wave, confirmed from various indirect evidences this guess, the evidence that they have is truly far us are much plentier, but distance finally conclusion...... throughout a difference that link.” “事实上我已经询问过了,在上次龙族的使者们造访塞西尔城的时候,我拜访过他们中的一位成员,”卡迈尔说着,摇了摇头,“让人意外的是他们在这方面的进展竟然也和我们差不多……他们认为魔力的本质确实是一种波,也从各种间接证据中确认了这个猜测,他们掌握的证据确实远比我们多得多,但距离最终的结论……始终差那么一环。” In average person opinion, „mana is wave” perhaps issue not important, they will even feel, since Dragon race had so many indirect evidences, its many technology achievements also almost support this guess, that this issue „was also almost OK”, does not absolutely need so to seek harshly, even confirms excruciatingly repeatedly, but Carmel knows, he and Grandmaster Velania cannot do that. 在普通人看来,“魔力到底是不是波”的问题恐怕并不那么重要,他们甚至会觉得既然龙族都掌握了那么多的间接证据,其许多技术成果也差不多是支持这个猜测的,那这个问题“差不多也就可以了”,根本没必要如此苛刻地求索,甚至吹毛求疵般地去反复验证,但卡迈尔知道,他和薇兰妮亚大师都不能这么做。 The learning is rigorous- when especially it possibly involves the most deep layer secret of this world is so. 学术是严谨的-尤其当它可能涉及到这个世界的最深层秘密时更是如此。 „Even hadn't Dragon race found to complete the means of this experiment?” Gawain feels because of the Carmel words extremely with astonishment, „this...... looks like mana noise this difficult problem to imagine us is much thornier than......” “连龙族都未曾找到完成这个实验的办法？”高文则因卡迈尔的话而感到万分惊愕,“这……看来魔力噪波这个难题比我们想象的要棘手得多……” ...... …… At the same time, in the sky of Cecil city north side, a dragon group of small scale is agitating the great wing, the formation to pass through from the cloud layer deep place. 同一时间,塞西尔城北方的天空中,一支小规模的龙群正鼓动巨翼,编队从云层深处穿过。 Situated in the dragon group frontline, is white dragon Noletta and blue dragon Melitta. 位于龙群最前方的,是白龙诺蕾塔和蓝龙梅丽塔。 „This is I , since that campaign, leaves Tollund for the first time,”, when a slit in the cloud layers, Noletta cannot bear say, her vision sweeps to the land of under extremely distant place, some broad straight road/s and entered her view along the road/s distributed mana transportation facilities, „will also have very big change...... the change of Human Race world is really will not have stopped.” “这是我自从那场战役之后第一次离开塔尔隆德,”在穿过云层间一道缝隙的时候,诺蕾塔忍不住说道,她的目光扫向下方极远处的大地,一些宽阔笔直的道路和沿着道路分布的魔力输送设施进入了她的眼帘,“又有了很大的变化啊……人类世界的变化还真是一刻都不会休止。” „Present Tollund is also so,” Melitta agitates mana in air, the sound to spread to the Noletta ear directly, „, moreover in the future, we will not fall into once in such stagnation inevitably again.” “如今的塔尔隆德也是如此,”梅丽塔鼓动着空气中的魔力,声音直接传入诺蕾塔耳中,“而且在未来,我们也必然不会再陷入曾经那样的停滞中。” „This is a very good wish,” the Noletta curved under neck, touches one to be fixed by the lock catch with the chin in own chest front oval vessel gently firmly, dragon egg in that vessel infiltrates in mana field, the surface is exuding gloss slightly, „I also believe, this child was born the later future, certainly will live in a better world.” “这是个很好的祝愿,”诺蕾塔弯下脖子,用下巴轻轻触碰着一个被锁扣牢牢固定在自己胸前的卵形容器,那容器中的龙蛋浸润在魔力场中,表面泛着微微的光泽,“我同样相信,这孩子出生之后的未来,一定会生活在一个更好的世界。” ( This chapter ends) (本章完)
