To „Uncle Gawain” the arrival, Patty seems very happy. 对“高文叔叔”的到来,帕蒂显得非常高兴。 She has not seen Uncle Gawain for a long time, has not heard Uncle Gawain to tell these to oneself about the development period and Gondor period, the stories of other wonderful ideas. 她已经有很长时间没见到高文叔叔,没听到高文叔叔给自己讲述那些关于开拓时期、刚铎时期,还有其他各种各样奇思妙想的故事了。 Even she this year already soon 15 years old, even in the common aristocrat children, her the child of this age has even started official to appear on the social occasion, starts to study the processing family business, is outside in the person eyes, she actually was still a child, even the appearance age be immaturer than people of the same age, knowledge that but as for understood, she was the backward same age aristocrat children is more. 即使她今年已经快要十五岁,即使在寻常的贵族子女中,她这个年龄的孩子甚至已经开始正式出现在社交场合,开始学习处理家族事务,可是在外人眼中,她却仍然是个孩子,连外貌年龄都要比同龄人幼小一些,而至于懂得的知识方面,她更是落后同龄的贵族子女很多很多。 Several-year serious makes her miss almost entire childhood stage wounded and sick, Patty restarted conducting the learn/study in knowledge until this year, many issues that she asked looked like do not conform to Gawain her age. 长达数年的严重伤病让她错过了几乎整个童年阶段,帕蒂直到今年才重新开始进行知识方面的学习,她提出的很多问题在高文看来都不太符合她的年龄。 But on the other hand, the special experience makes Patty in the mind aspect compared with people of the same age mature, perhaps is because lost the ability of free activity, the survival completely relies on others to look, she can always detect very much keenly the mood of nearby person changes. 但另一方面,特殊的经历却让帕蒂在心智方面比同龄人成熟,或许是由于失去了自由活动的能力,生存完全依赖旁人照顾,她总能很敏锐地察觉到身边人的情绪变化。 „Uncle Gawain, are you were not a little happy?” She noticed during the Gawain conversations 1 points slight mood to change, immediately stopped oneself these verbose issues, asked one cautiously. “高文叔叔,您是不是有点不高兴？”她注意到了高文言谈间一点细微的情绪变化,顿时停下自己那些絮絮叨叨的问题,小心翼翼地问了一句。 Gawain is startled, the vision fell on present little girl. 高文怔了一下,目光落在眼前的小姑娘身上。 The opposite party have been able to sit on the wheelchair very well, the neck can also depend upon own strength to be supine, is that big eye winking looks at, in the eye full is curiously and worried little. 对方已经能很好地坐在轮椅上,脖子也能依靠自己的力量仰起,那双大眼睛正一眨不眨地看着这边,眼睛中满是好奇和一点点担忧。 „No, I am not happy,” a moment later, Gawain shakes the head with a smile, „suddenly remembered other matter, was distracted.” “不,我没有不高兴,”片刻之后,高文笑着摇了摇头,“只是突然想起了别的事情,走神了一下。” „It is not distracted well,” Patty said very much earnestly, „, but you were Lord, did Lord usually have a lot of things to need to take the trouble the ponder?” “走神不好,”帕蒂很认真地说道,“但您是大人了,大人平常有很多东西需要费心思考吧？” „My ordinary matter are truly many, but finds the time to tell a story to you.” Gawain is saying with smile on the face, simultaneously has actually branched out the portion attention, began using to connect the mind network quietly secret port- after such a long time familiar, he has been able to come from the Eternal Sleepers strength to take and put away smoothly to these, even if did not plunge the network own conscious completely, he can still with oneself special jurisdiction transfer network resource, conduct some secret operations. “我平常的事情确实不少,但抽出时间给你讲个故事还是可以的。”高文面带微笑地说着,同时却已经分出一部分注意力,悄然启用了能够连接到心灵网络的隐秘端口-经过这么长时间的熟悉,他早已能够对这些来自永眠者的力量收放自如,即便不将自己的意识完全浸入网络,他也能用自己的特殊权限调用网络资源,进行一些隐秘操作。 After builds the connection own shallow layer conscious and network, he looks again to Patty. 在将自己的浅层意识和网络建立连接之后,他再次看向帕蒂。 Patty was Patty, the face still had not turned into Selena Gehrfen look, the side has not presented the extra form. 帕蒂仍然是帕蒂,面孔既没有变成赛琳娜·格尔分的模样,身旁也没出现额外的身影。 But Gawain has been able to determine, Selena truly „here”, by some strange condition and Patty closely links. 但高文已然能够确定,赛琳娜确实就在“这里”,以某种奇异的状态和帕蒂紧密联系在一起。 In midair that because by the Patty small wheelchair, the average man naked eye cannot see, calmly is hanging an inspection lamp. 因为在帕蒂小小的轮椅旁边,常人肉眼所看不到的半空中,正静静悬挂着一盏提灯。 ...... …… Patty needs to conduct spirit that the sufficient sleep restores to lose every day, and lets „limbs regeneration technique” the effect further displays, but before seeing Gawain, she had looked at two hours of Magical Theater, later listened to Gawain to tell many stories, then arrived quickly needed the midday rest when the time comes. 帕蒂每天需要进行充足的睡眠来修复损耗的精神,并让“肢体再生术”的效果进一步发挥,而在见到高文之前,她已经看了两个多小时的魔影剧,之后又听高文讲了许多故事,很快便到了需要午休到时候。 Gawain looks at that personal maid brings Patty to arrive at the next room, the movement places little girl in specially-made Immersion Cabin gently, after confirming Patty went to sleep peacefully, he leaves the room, comes to the castle reception room, saw waited in this's Lopenny Viscountess. 高文看着那位贴身女仆带着帕蒂来到隔壁房间,动作轻柔地将小姑娘安置在一具特制的浸入舱内,在确认帕蒂已经安然入睡之后,他离开房间,来到城堡的会客室中,见到了等候在此的罗佩妮女子爵。 Viscountess sets out from high back chair, bows to salute to Gawain: „Your majesty, thanks your looking after to Patty, she will be very certainly happy today.” 女子爵从高背椅上起身,对高文鞠躬致敬:“陛下,感谢您对帕蒂的关照,她今天一定会很开心。” „Her was healthier, I also felt relieved,” Gawain nods, is saying while arrives at one to sit down close to the window chair on, „I noticed that Patty has been using the Immersion Cabin dormancy- she is to use these days Immersion Cabin?” “她的身体好了很多,我也就放心了,”高文点点头,一边说着一边来到一把靠近窗口的椅子上坐下,“我看到帕蒂已经在用浸入舱休眠-她这段时间一直是用的浸入舱么？” „Yes,” Lopenny Viscountess nods, „has used for almost one month.” “是的,”罗佩妮女子爵点点头,“已经用了差不多一个月了。” „What untoward effect has? Does she use the custom?” “有什么不良反应么？她用起来习惯么？” These issues sound the normal care, Viscountess did not think that which has is not right: „, Immersion Cabin is not easy-to-use, technology personnel that you send also fulfills duty to fulfill responsibility, they treated here for four days, confirmed that in the Patty use process does not have any exceptionally leaves, moreover before departure, handed over in the Immersion Cabin technology material the local magical technician hand....... She just started is not familiar with as for Patty, but is only because cannot rest the strange bed, now she has adapted very much.” 这些问题听上去都只是正常关心,女子爵丝毫不觉得有哪不对:“并没有,浸入舱非常好用,您派来的技术人员也非常尽职尽责,他们在这里待了四天,确认帕蒂使用过程中没有任何异常才离开,而且离开前还把浸入舱的技术资料交到了本地的魔导技师手中。至于帕蒂……她刚开始不太习惯,但只是因为睡不惯陌生的床,现在她已经很适应了。” Has been using Immersion Cabin...... 一直在使用浸入舱么…… Gawain touches the chin, asked: „Before that withstood/top a Eternal Sleepers crown, now where?” 高文摸了摸下巴,又问道:“之前那顶永眠者头冠,现在在什么地方？” „I placed the castle basement it, with some extraordinary collections put together,” Viscountess replied, „, because, did not plan to use again, I was considering that must get up its seal with some method- after all, it was related with Eternal Sleepers.” “我把它放在城堡的地下室了,和一些超凡收藏品放在一起,”女子爵答道,“因为以后也不打算再用,我正考虑要不要用某种手段将其封印起来-毕竟,它和永眠者有关。” To this lady, has become her custom discretely. 对这位女士而言,谨慎已经成了她的习惯。 But when has to do with Eternal Sleepers, this degree of discrete as if also by far insufficient. 但在和永眠者打交道的时候,这种程度的谨慎似乎还远远不够。 „Your also need not considered that what seal, I prepared to carry off that head crown,” Gawain said that „for...... research.” “你也不用考虑什么封印了,我准备带走那顶头冠,”高文说道,“用于……研究。” The Lopenny Viscountess vision changed slightly, although the Gawain's tone and manner have not displayed slightly exceptionally, but this mother's intuition actually beats suddenly, she closely is staring at the Gawain's eye: „Is your majesty...... that crown has the issue? Patty she......” 罗佩妮女子爵的目光略微变化了一些,尽管高文的语气和神态都丝毫没表现出异常,但这位母亲的直觉却突然跳动起来,她紧紧盯着高文的眼睛:“陛下……是不是那头冠有问题？帕蒂她……” „nervous,” Gawain do not beckon with the hand immediately, „is only the technology research. As for Patty, her situation is very good.” “不要过于紧张,”高文立刻摆了摆手,“只是技术研究。至于帕蒂,她情况很好。” Lopenny then reveals look that relaxes: „That's good. Sorry, about the Patty issue, my always nervous......” 罗佩妮这才露出松一口气的模样:“那还好。抱歉,在关于帕蒂的问题上,我总是过于紧张……” Viscountess left, as Glen Magistrate, some of her also many official business needs to process. Gawain also returned to specialized for the room that oneself prepare, he closes the door, sees in window curtains nearby shadow, the short winter melons are cropping up inquisitively. 女子爵离开了,作为葛兰的执政官,她还有很多公务需要处理。高文也回到了专门为自己准备的房间,他关上房门,看到在窗帘附近的阴影中,有一个矮冬瓜正探头探脑地冒出头来。 Confirmed that four do not have the bystander, Amber felt relieved jumped from Shadow World boldly, reveals to smile to Gawain: „According to the material, that Lopenny Viscountess is easily believes others' person very much difficultly, but she actually trusts you very much- you said Patty to be all right, she really put down the heart to work.” 确认四下无外人,琥珀才放心大胆地从暗影界中跳了出来,对高文露出笑:“根据资料,那个罗佩妮女子爵是个很难轻易相信别人的人,但她却对你很是信任-你说帕蒂没事,她就真的放下心去工作了。” „I do not hope she sustains the unnecessary pressure, after all the matter has not made clear,” Gawain spoke thoughtlessly saying that „, moreover we must avoid alerting the enemy.” “我只是不希望她承担不必要的压力,毕竟事情还没有搞清楚,”高文随口说道,“而且我们还要避免打草惊蛇。” „Alerts the enemy? This is an interesting word, I remembered,” Amber eye one brightly, familiar and easy under record this new word, in secret collection and collation „the Gawain Cecil Great Emperor sacred obscene talk of” adds one again, later looked at Gawain one curiously, „on the other hand, does Patty really have the issue?” “打草惊蛇？这是个有意思的词,我记下了,”琥珀眼睛一亮,轻车熟路地记录下这个新词,在她私下里搜集整理的“高文·塞西尔大帝神圣的骚话”中再添一笔,随后好奇地看了高文一眼,“话又说回来,帕蒂真的有问题么？” Gawain slightly hesitates, said in a low voice: „Under the mind field of vision, her side has an inspection lamp.” 高文略一沉吟,低声说道:“在心灵视界下,她身边有一盏提灯。” „...... Mother.” “……妈耶。” „But the situation still expected compared with me is much better,” Gawain continues saying that „Selena Gehrfen has not invaded Patty soul, sign that the latter has not been damaged. Their perhaps in peaceful coexistence, even Patty do not know on oneself has anything exceptionally......” “但情况仍然比我预料的要好一些,”高文继续说道,“赛琳娜·格尔分并没有侵占帕蒂的灵魂,后者也没有受损的迹象。她们或许是在和平共处,甚至帕蒂自己都不知道自己身上有什么异常……” Amber is staring: „Saw the inspection lamp so to be optimistic, before you, expected ‚was bad situation’ what kind?” 琥珀瞪着眼睛:“都看见提灯了还这么乐观,那你之前预料的‘糟糕情况’得是什么样？” „In the worst situation...... Patty is Selena Gehrfen,” Gawain looked at Amber one, „before we know Patty, when the Patty contact crown, she had died to the end, in later several years, in that body is Selena.” “最糟的情况下……帕蒂就是赛琳娜·格尔分,”高文看了琥珀一眼,“早在我们认识帕蒂之前,早在帕蒂接触到头冠的时候,她就已经死了,之后的数年里,那具躯壳中的都是赛琳娜。” Amber imagined a that scene, suddenly the body trembles: „...... Mother!” 琥珀想象了一下那个场景,突然身子一哆嗦:“……妈耶！” Gawain successfully frightened this reckless Half-Elf, the mood was slightly good: „Very is truly frightened, not? If by having the terrifying of mind level, Eternal Sleepers must exceed compared with All Things Finally Die Society......” 高文成功吓到了这个胆大包天的半精灵,心情稍稍愉快起来:“确实很惊悚,不是么？若论起心灵层面的恐怖,永眠者显然比万物终亡会要技高一筹……” „I because of this,” Amber do not beckon with the hand, „I thought a 700-year-old woman pretends to become over ten -year-old little girl, meets calls your Uncle Gawain, but also managed a twenty -year-old young woman to ask mother to call for several years, this was really terrifying, worthily was Eternal Sleepers......” “我不是因为这个,”琥珀摆摆手,“我只是觉得一个700多岁的女人假装成十多岁的小姑娘,见面就叫你高文叔叔,还管一个二十几岁的年轻女人叫妈叫了好几年,这真是太恐怖了,不愧是永眠者……” Gawain: „......” 高文:“……” In conscious to continues to discuss that after this Disgrace of Elves is brings about own destruction, he decisively cut off the topic, returns to the right track: „Now was unable to determine that the relation of Patty and Selena, to avoid alerting the enemy, to control Eternal Sleepers that side situation, we cannot take any outwardly on action Glen- can only maintain most periphery's monitoring.” 在意识到跟这个精灵之耻继续讨论下去是自寻死路之后,他果断掐断了话题,回到正轨:“现在还不能确定帕蒂和赛琳娜的联系,为避免打草惊蛇,也为了控制永眠者那边的局势,我们不能在葛兰这边采取任何明面上的行动-只能保持最外围的监控。” Amber pats the chest: „I understand, this I excel.” 琥珀一拍胸口:“我明白,这个我擅长。” Afterward she noticed on the Gawain face still to have the thinking look, then could not bear ask: „What's wrong? What situation also has?” 随后她注意到高文脸上仍有思索神色,便忍不住问道:“怎么了？还有什么情况？” „I in thinking...... us have how many things to expose in the Selena Gehrfen eye, but she silent until now reason is anything,” Gawain gently exhaled, shakes the head reluctantly, „Patty is to currently use Cecil production Immersion Cabin goes to sleep, simultaneously our magic circuit communication technology is not the secret, it has promoted in the Glen area, but senior Eternal Sleepers is very easy to be able from the magic circuit communication to see the mind network technology shadow...... Selena Gehrfen, if really hidden in the Patty conscious deep place, that she passes ‚host’ the eye then can see all these......, even if these evidence is also not enough to prove directly ‚alien traveller’ can invade the mind network, should cause being vigilant of Eternal Sleepers sufficiently and paid attention...... but Selena Gehrfen anything has not done, many plans that I and Daniel make cannot apply to the present.” “我在想……我们到底有多少东西已经暴露在赛琳娜·格尔分眼中,而她沉默至今的原因又是什么,”高文轻轻呼了口气,无奈地摇了摇头,“帕蒂现在是使用塞西尔生产的浸入舱来入睡的,同时我们的魔网通讯技术也不是什么秘密,它早已经在葛兰地区推广开来,而一个资深的永眠者很容易就能从魔网通讯上看出心灵网络技术的影子……赛琳娜·格尔分如果真的隐藏在帕蒂的意识深处,那她通过‘宿主’的眼睛便能看到这一切……即使这些证据还不足以直接证明‘域外游荡者’能够入侵心灵网络,也应该足以引起永眠者的警惕和关注了……但赛琳娜·格尔分什么都没做,我和丹尼尔做的许多预案也到现在都派不上用场。” „Hiss...... is this strange silent person, more is to make the person be tempered with a sense of caution,” Amber is giving a tongue-lashing the tooth, „any destruction has counterattacking and recovery method, feared was this anything does not say.” “嘶……越是这种诡异沉默的人,越是让人心生警惕,”琥珀呲着牙,“任何破坏都有反制和补救手段,怕的就是这种什么都不说的。” Afterward she, shakes the head: „On the other hand, so long as we develop magic circuit communication technology, that side Eternal Sleepers is impossible not to pay attention, the things develop the certain extent, must surface, after this is the scale expands the necessity. In this resistance, ‚our anything is hiding, their anything cannot see’ only to be the lower stage, ‚our anything publicized, they saw to finish without means’ are the high-level stage- now, was the time to finish the first stage prepares.” 随后她顿了顿,又摇摇头:“不过话又说回来,只要我们发展魔网通讯技术,永眠者那边就不可能注意不到,事物发展到一定程度,总要浮出水面的,这是规模扩大之后的必然。在这种对抗中,‘我们什么都藏着,他们什么都看不见’只能算是低级阶段,‘我们什么都公开了,他们看见了却毫无办法’才是高级阶段-现在,是时候为结束第一个阶段做准备了。” Gawain is gazing at confident Amber, until looks at the opposite party is irritable, is turning the neck: „Yeah, do you look at my what are you doing?” 高文注视着侃侃而谈的琥珀,直到把对方看的别扭起来,扭着脖子:“哎,你看我干什么？” „It‘s nothing, but felt you said is very reasonable,” Gawain smiles, speaks thoughtlessly saying that „ truly, our mind network technology also in gradually mature, the Eternal Sleepers that side...... will definitely notice. Moreover recalls carefully, at first I and Patty contact then considered Selena to be able in the city of Dreamland frequently with the opposite party in the same place, therefore had not disclosed in front of Patty any with ‚alien traveller’ related information, Selena Gehrfen can see us with the aid of the eye of Patty the technology development at most in magic circuit communication. “没什么,只是觉得你说的还挺有道理,”高文笑了笑,随口说道,“确实,我们自己的心灵网络技术也在渐渐成熟,永眠者那边……肯定会注意到的。而且仔细回忆一下,最初我和帕蒂接触的时候便考虑到了赛琳娜在梦境之城中经常会和对方在一起,因此并未在帕蒂面前透露过任何与‘域外游荡者’有关的信息,赛琳娜·格尔分顶多能借助帕蒂的眼睛看到我们在魔网通讯上的技术发展。 „I now am curious a matter, Patty, when uses Immersion Cabin to go to sleep with it purely, she has no longer connected the Eternal Sleepers mind network, this is to prevent to expose our ‚network intrusion’ behavior, since Patty has no longer entered the mind network, then hidden in Patty ‚side’ how Selena...... does she maintain with the connection of mind network?” “我现在就好奇一件事,帕蒂在使用浸入舱的时候只是单纯用它入睡,她已经不再接入永眠者的心灵网络,这是为了防止暴露我们的‘网络入侵’行为,而既然帕蒂已经不再进入心灵网络,那么隐藏在帕蒂‘身边’的赛琳娜……她是怎么保持和心灵网络的连接的？” Amber flexure sent difficultly. 琥珀挠了挠头发。 The issue that Gawain asked that she did not think clearly. 高文提出的这个问题,她也想不明白。 ...... …… Snow gleams white Eastern Region hills, twinkle glimmer Wind Shield is isolating the wind and snow from wilderness, under protects the shield to cover the charge railway rail to extend in the land, is hidden gradually in the wind and snow deep place of distant place. 白雪皑皑的东境群山脚下,闪烁微光的微风护盾隔绝着来自荒野的风雪,护盾笼罩下的充能铁轨在大地上延伸,渐渐隐没在远方的风雪深处。 The wheel rolling, the mechanism plays the steel the melody, the magic energy train that one row is hanging Cecil Empire crest howls on protecting the charge railway rail under shield package rolls by, such as the steel python is dashing in the land. 车轮滚动,机械装置奏出钢铁的旋律,一列悬挂着塞西尔帝国徽记的魔能列车呼啸着在护盾包裹下的充能铁轨上驶过,如钢铁巨蟒般在大地上飞奔着。 Not the well-known mountain range is retroceding one side of the train, the vegetation and parapet of railway rail vicinity connected fuzzy one piece because of the fast retreat. 不知名的山脉在列车一侧后退着,铁轨近处的草木和栏杆因快速后退而连接成了模模糊糊的一片。 Outside is the winter that the cold wind howls, train actually warm comfortable, spans the wilderness to travel in a belly of steel giant beast, this is really a marvelous experience. 外面是冷风呼啸的冬天,列车内部却温暖舒适,在一头钢铁巨兽的肚子里跨越荒野去旅行,这实在是一种奇妙的体验。 Matilda Augustus sits on the spacious comfortable train seat straight, the vision by that leaf of crystal glass looks at outside foreign land scenery of embed on compartment sidewall, corner of the mouth somewhat turns upwards slightly. 玛蒂尔达・奥古斯都端正地坐在宽敞舒适的列车座椅上,目光透过身旁那扇镶嵌在车厢侧壁上的水晶玻璃看着外面的异国风景,嘴角略微有些翘起。 Strange state...... 陌生的国度啊……
