This is one time marvelous and amusing journey. 这是一次奇妙而有趣的旅程。 At least so far still so. 起码目前为止仍然如此。 Matilda sits with the others impeccable solemn stance on the comfortable spacious seat, calmly gazes at the Cecil Empire hills to retrocede outside the glass gradually, the wind and snow had weakened, outside scenery starts becomes open and bright, the compartment is surrounding the affable music that is released by some magic installment, the beautiful scene, the music, rich food that the just right temperature environment, as well as on the train stockpiles, makes this make a long journey together winter becomes especially comfortable. 玛蒂尔达以旁人无可挑剔的端庄姿态坐在舒适宽大的座椅上,静静注视着塞西尔帝国的群山在车窗外渐渐后退,风雪已经减弱了很多,外面的风景开始变得开阔而鲜明起来,车厢内部则环绕着由某种魔法装置释放出来的舒缓音乐,美景,音乐,恰到好处的温度环境,以及列车上储备的丰富食物,共同让这场在冬季进行的长途旅行变得格外舒适。 Even the comfortable letting person will forget oneself are sitting in within the body of steel giant beast, forgot oneself are speeding away in the speed of beyond ultra speeding horse in the Cecil cold winter wilderness. 甚至舒适的让人会忘记自己正坐在一头钢铁巨兽的体内,忘记自己正在以远超奔马的速度疾驰在塞西尔寒冷的冬季旷野上。 Has the golden short hair, the facial features are young, the makings especially are mature the calm young people to sit opposite of Matilda, he notices present foreign Princess to seem like the interest in be good, then shows a light smile, in the tone brings proudly some: „How rides the experience that the magic energy train travels?” 一位留着金色短发,面容年轻,气质却格外成熟沉稳的年轻人坐在玛蒂尔达对面,他注意到眼前的异国公主似乎兴致不错,便露出一丝淡淡的微笑,语气中带着些许自豪:“乘坐魔能列车旅行的体验如何？” Matilda receives to look to the vision of out of the window, looks to opposite young people. 玛蒂尔达收回望向窗外的目光,看向对面的年轻人。 This young people named Philip has the surprising status, he is so young, but in fact is one of the Cecil Empire military commands, he is directing Cecil Empire most powerful ground legion, but this legion main force...... the present is located in Longwind defense line. 这位名叫菲利普的年轻人有着令人惊讶的身份,他如此年轻,但实际上已经是塞西尔帝国的军事统帅之一,他指挥着塞西尔帝国最强大的地面军团,而这支军团的主力……现在便位于长风防线。 Is greeted the diplomatic envoy that and „escorting” the Typhon sovereign female leads by such a important military commander, is the status coordinatedly and fully conforms to the etiquette standard. 由这样一位重要军事统帅来迎接并“护送”提丰皇女所带领的使节团,是身份对等且完全符合礼仪规范的。 Matilda shows a smile. 玛蒂尔达露出一丝微笑。 „Very good experience,” she said with a smile, „, moreover we also saw the best scenery.” “很棒的体验,”她笑着说道,“而且我们还看到了最好的风景。” Philip also smiled. 菲利普同样笑了起来。 In reliable General Maryland properly under arrangement, with the efforts of strong wind from afar area unit at all levels, at present this Your Highness Princess from entering Cecil continuously to the present, truly also only then the scenery may look. 在可靠的马里兰将军妥善安排下,在长风地区各级单位的努力下,眼前这位公主殿下从进入塞西尔境内一直到现在,确实也只有风景可看。 „confessed that the travel experience of such degree was not to me new,” Matilda then said, what „ was novel, all these were depend upon the magical machine to come achieve. In the past, depends upon the mage strength, wish lets such huge means of transportation fast across the wilderness, or maintains the comfortable travel environment in the severe environment, these not difficult achieve, but magical technology can without the steel of life comes achieve these strengths that should control by mage, this point is I have not imagined. “坦白来讲,这样程度的旅行体验对我而言并不新鲜,”玛蒂尔达接着说道,“新奇的是,这一切是依靠魔导机器来实现的。在过去,依靠法师的力量,想要让这么庞大的交通工具快速穿过旷野,或者在严酷的环境中维持舒适的旅行环境,这些都不难实现,但魔导技术能够用没有生命的钢铁来实现这些本应由法师来掌控的力量,这一点是我不曾想象过的。 „In Typhon, most aristocrats approved the strength of magical machine, and welcome the new magic energy trains as well as various factories, but some conservative mage did not like these things- they always say that the revolution of machine lacks soul.” “在提丰,大部分贵族都认同了魔导机器的力量,并非常欢迎新出现的魔能列车以及各类工厂,但仍有一些守旧的法师不喜欢这些东西-他们总是说机器的运转缺少灵魂。” „This point is actually different from us,” Philip smiled, „we thought that in the machine contains another soul, it hides in the piston of gear and movement of revolving, magic energy that the fat that only needs to lubricate and rushes, it is the Human Race loyal friend.” “这一点倒是和我们不同,”菲利普笑了起来,“我们觉得机器中蕴藏着另一种灵魂,它就藏身在旋转的齿轮和移动的活塞中,只需要润滑的油脂和澎湃的魔能,它就是人类忠诚的朋友。” „......, therefore magical technology first appears in Cecil, moreover most rapidness that also develops on this lands,” Matilda has a feeling saying that „I am always interested in magical technology, I like it even to surpass traditional magic spell, what a pity Typhon also has a long way to go in this aspect.” “……所以魔导技术首先出现在塞西尔,而且也是在这片土地上发展的最快,”玛蒂尔达带着一丝感慨说道,“我始终对魔导技术充满兴趣,我喜爱它甚至超过传统的法术,可惜提丰在这方面还有很长的路要走。” This is the modest language appropriate to the occasion of sequencing, Philip very clear this point, therefore he smiles lightly, not formal response anything. 这是程序化的谦虚辞令,菲利普很清楚这一点,所以他只是淡淡地笑了笑,并未正面回应什么。 The business blows domain that is not he excels at after all mutually...... 商业互吹毕竟不是他所擅长的领域…… Sat the black hair middle age male aristocrat of seat also joined the topic by Matilda: „I pay attention to magical technology similarly, said honestly, I am even investing it, studies it, this is really one spends the really big enterprise, from this point, I to Cecilian is very admiring- you are dare to pay the price to seek the benefit person, rich adventurer/risk-taker spirit.” 坐在玛蒂尔达旁边座位的一位黑发中年男性贵族也加入了话题:“我同样关注魔导技术,坦白说,我自己甚至就在投资它,研究它,这实在是一项耗资甚大的事业,从这一点上,我对塞西尔人是很钦佩的-你们是敢于付出代价来博取利益的人,富有冒险家精神。” Matilda looked at this male aristocrat one Eyes Count Dulle is Aldernan most craves in magical technology domain „progress aristocrat” one, he has the north largest plantation, meanwhile invested several large-scale textile mills and spinning mills, he role in mission, actually then represents Aldernan these to pay attention to magical technology and attempt the aristocrat community that excavates more commercial values to a certain extent from magical technology. 玛蒂尔达看了这位男性贵族一眼-杜勒伯爵是奥尔德南最热衷于魔导技术领域的“进步贵族”之一,他拥有北方最大规模的种植园,同时还投资了数个大规模的纺织厂和纺纱厂,他在使团中的角色,其实某种程度上便代表着奥尔德南那些关注魔导技术、尝试从魔导技术中发掘出更多商业价值的贵族群体。 Thinks of here, this Typhon Princess approval nods: „Construction factory and research and development machine truly spend greatly, but returns truly is also astonishing-, therefore it can attract more and more aristocrats and merchants becomes the investor. This point, in Cecil is also same?” 想到这里,这位提丰公主赞同地点了点头:“建设工厂和研发机器确实耗资巨大,但回报也确实惊人-因此它才能吸引越来越多的贵族和商人成为投资者。这一点,在塞西尔也是一样的么？” „...... Naturally.” Philip smiles, the nod said. “……当然。”菲利普笑了笑,点头说道。 The train is dashing in the wilderness, mountain spine/ridge line that outside the glass, the height fluctuates already quickly to end, the front seems to be just about to enter the plain. 列车在旷野上飞奔着,车窗外,高低起伏的山脊线已经快到尽头,前方似乎正要进入平原。 In the Matilda heart actually cannot bear taste Philip to reply finally own that „naturally”, why does not know, her total instinct felt that in this word contains more profound meanings, actually cannot grasp the root suddenly. 玛蒂尔达心中却忍不住回味着菲利普最后回答自己的那个“当然”,不知为何,她总本能地感觉这个单词中蕴含着更多的深意,却一时间把握不到根源。 At this moment, the train ran out of covering up of hills finally, after the giant dike flashes through, the front is the vast plain, the scene outside glass widens suddenly. 就在这时,列车终于冲出了群山的遮掩,巨大的岩壁闪过之后,前方是一望无际的平原,车窗外的景象骤然开阔起来。 The attachment point of plain and mountain range end, on a stretch of natural high ground, huge stele/stone tablet towers by the track line, around stele/stone tablet as if also has the fence blocking, the nearby seems like the maintenance and monitoring site of track line. 平原与山脉尽头的连接处,一片天然的高地上,一座巨大的石碑耸立在铁路线旁,石碑周围似乎还有围墙遮挡,附近似乎是铁路线的维护和监控站点。 Matilda just noticed that unusual construction, why will be curious in the wilderness to establish a striking thing, then hears resounding soaring whistle sound to resound from the compartment suddenly, reverberates on the plain of length and breadth. 玛蒂尔达刚注意到那不同寻常的建筑,正要好奇为何旷野上要设置一个如此醒目的东西,便突然听到一阵响亮高昂的笛声从车厢顶部响起,回荡在广袤的平原上。 This makes her stare immediately: Why blows a whistle suddenly? Does here have the bus stop or the staggered train? 这让她顿时一愣:为何突然鸣笛？这里有停靠站或者交错的列车么？ In well ups puzzled, she with surrounding Typhon Envoy surprisedly noticed Cecilian in compartment stood as if by prior agreement, even including that young army command, these status noble Knight and high-ranking military officers shifts to outside the glass simultaneously, gazes at that to stand and wait for a long time in mountain range end huge stele/stone tablet, the solemn silence, seems saluting to salute. 正在困惑涌上心头的时候,她和周围的提丰使者们惊讶地看到车厢内的塞西尔人不约而同地站了起来,甚至包括那位年轻的陆军统帅,这些身份高贵的骑士、将官们同时转向车窗外,注视着那伫立在山脉尽头的巨大石碑,庄严肃穆,仿佛是在行礼致敬。 Then Typhon Envoy when surrounding Cecilian stands up simultaneously has a scare, even nervous, actually is only left over at this moment at a loss, these solemn and respectful facial features make them not know that should make noise the inquiry, can only maintain was waiting puzzled for more than ten seconds, sat down after Philip and the others, Matilda cannot bear ask: „General Philip, this is......” 提丰使者们在周围的塞西尔人同时起立时便吓了一跳,甚至一阵紧张,此刻却只剩下茫然,那些肃穆的面容让他们不知该不该出声询问,只能保持着困惑等了十几秒钟,直到菲利普等人坐下之后,玛蒂尔达才忍不住问道:“菲利普将军,请问这是……” „Did you notice that stele/stone tablet?” Philip looks at Matilda, asked calmly. “您注意到那座石碑了吧？”菲利普看着玛蒂尔达,平静地问道。 „Yes, I noticed-, moreover just wants to inquire a moment ago.” “是的,我注意到了-而且刚才正想询问。” „The track line, after the crystal cluster war ended, extends and constructs in the original Baisha (White Sand) mining industry track line foundation urgently,” Philip said slowly, „, for prompt feeds in Eastern Region the grain and Unit public order, preventing the continuing effect of crystal cluster war to make the large-scale famine and chaos in Eastern Region, the time of this line must be compressed before the winter ended. “您脚下的这条铁路线,是在晶簇战争结束之后,在原有的白沙矿业铁路线基础上紧急延伸、修建的,”菲利普慢慢说道,“为了及时把粮食和治安送进东境,防止晶簇战争的后续影响在东境制造大规模的饥荒和混乱,这条线路的工期必须被压缩到冬季结束之前。 „ For rapid through the topography most complex doing obeisance Seurre mountain range, the third construction corp used the large-scale geology to mold magic spell, including the mage group that reassigned from old Royal Capital urgently, as well as can release the Stone to Mud Spell big-scale work machinery. “为了迅速通过地势最复杂的拜瑟尔山脉,第三建设兵团动用了大规模的地质塑造法术,包括从旧王都紧急抽调的法师团,以及能够释放化石为泥术的大型工程机械。 „ When breaks through Karin mountain pass, a magic power focus of hidden causes magic spell to lose control, mountain wall collapsing. “在突破卡林山口的时候,一处隐藏的法力焦点导致法术失控,山壁坍塌了。 „37 people were buried below, including seven mage and 20 workers.” “三十七人被埋在下面,包括七名法师和二十名工人。” Matilda opened the eye slightly, the Count Dulle subconsciously opens the mouth: „Therefore that was for commemorating sacrifice mages......” 玛蒂尔达微微睁大了眼睛,杜勒伯爵则下意识开口:“所以那是为了纪念牺牲的法师们……” „Is the person who commemorated all sacrifices,” the eye of Philip looks at Count Dulle, „ the dike of collapsing swallowed the victim, the magic spell complementary waves caused the flesh and stone of person fuses in together, cannot divide, we fused flesh giant stone to ship out the mountain pass these, molded a monument, placed them once Karin mountain pass end that attempted to break through actually cannot succeed- turned away is doing obeisance the Seurre mountain range, is gazing at the eastern plain. “是纪念所有牺牲的人,”菲利普看着杜勒伯爵的眼睛,“坍塌的岩壁吞噬了遇难者,法术余波导致人的血肉和石头融合在一起,根本分不出来,我们把那些融合了血肉的巨石运出山口,塑造了一座纪念碑,就放在他们曾尝试突破却未能成功的卡林山口尽头-背对着拜瑟尔山脉,注视着东部平原。 „When train in blows a whistle, soldier to salute after the monument after Karin mountain pass, is the custom on this line.” “列车在通过卡林山口后鸣笛、军人在经过纪念碑时致敬,是这条线路上的习惯。” Matilda peacefully and is listening earnestly, expression as if not too sweeping change. 玛蒂尔达安静而认真地听着,表情似乎并无太大变化。 Envoy from Typhon are listening peacefully, some people as if in puzzled, some people seem thinking. 来自提丰的使者们都安静地听着,有些人似乎在困惑,有些人似乎在思索。 The big investment aristocrat from Aldernan, becomes dark to black Count Dulle cannot bear look to out of the window, the looks at monument already the direction that goes far away, in as if still the lingering ear horn sound, could not bear whisper: 来自奥尔德南的大投资贵族,黑发黑须的杜勒伯爵忍不住看向窗外,看着纪念碑已经远去的方向,在仿佛仍然萦绕耳边的车笛声中,忍不住嘀咕起来: „Then big monument......, even if mage acts, constructing is not easy.” “那么大的纪念碑啊……哪怕法师出手,建起来也不容易。” Perhaps, sufficed to construct a textile mill again. 说不定,都够再建造一座纺织厂了。 Matilda is listening to Count Dulle talk to oneself, the rapid retreat of looks at Cecil's plain outside the train. 玛蒂尔达听着杜勒伯爵的自言自语,看着塞西尔的平原在列车外飞速后退。 Foreign country...... 异国他乡啊…… ...... …… The wind from north Sea Territory has blown the hills of standing tall and erect extremely, rolls up and pushes along the snow between mountain ranges, the Dragon descendant flag is fluttering high on the Dragonwatch Castle heavy/thick apex, the flag terminal faces South, flutters continuous. 来自极北海域的风吹过高耸的群山,卷动着山峦之间的积雪,龙裔的旗帜高高飘扬在龙临堡的厚重尖顶上,旗帜末端朝向南方,飘荡不休。 „Envoy group candidates have set, recently then met set off,” dragon blood Grand Duke Balogher stands on Dragonwatch Castle broad lithical terrace, is overlooking the snow gleams white state, said to court official, „Sir Gorosh, is led by you, is absolutely safe.” “使者团人选已经定下,近日便会出发,”龙血大公巴洛格尔站在龙临堡宽阔的石质露台上,俯瞰着白雪皑皑的国度,对身旁的廷臣说道,“戈洛什爵士,由你带队,想必是万无一失的。” „Decides however completes the mission, your majesty.” Sir Gorosh lowers the head the sinking sound to say. “定然完成使命,陛下。”戈洛什爵士低头沉声说道。 Balogher nods, the tone is ease: „ We also truly sealed up in the hills of this piece of bitter cold were too long, the world outside hills, was worth visit. 巴洛格尔点了点头,语气悠然:“我们也确实在这片苦寒的群山中封闭太久了,群山外的世界,也值得去看一看。 „ You treat as the eye of duchy, observe well that Cecil Empire, having a look at them to have what extraordinary place. “你就当做公国的眼睛吧,去好好观察一下那个塞西尔帝国,看看他们到底有什么非凡之处。 „Also calculates that our these ‚exile’...... has not disappointed the Tollund good intention.” “也算我们这些‘流放者’……没有辜负塔尔隆德的好意。” „Tollund......” Sir Gorosh the look changed slightly, „how long we must wait for......” “塔尔隆德……”戈洛什爵士眼神微微变化了一下,“我们到底还要等多久……” „From the beginning, this is nearly permanent waiting,” Balogher Grand Duke said at a moderate pace, „maintains the hope with the hopeless mentality, our patience will be lasting.” “从一开始,这就是近乎永久的等待,”巴洛格尔大公不紧不慢地说道,“以毫无希望的心态去保持希望,我们的耐心才会持久。” „...... Is, your majesty.” “……是,陛下。” Balogher silent moment, takes back the vision, looks to the court official of side faith, suddenly smiled: „Said, you and your daughter haven't met for a long time?” 巴洛格尔沉默了片刻,收回目光,看向身旁信赖的廷臣,突然微微笑了一下:“说起来,你和你的女儿也很长时间不曾见面了吧？” „...... Five years ago has seen from afar one time,” Sir Gorosh in the tone is somewhat helpless, is somewhat awkward, „the child who deliberately creates trouble...... she acts unreasonably in the Human Race world, really inadequate custom.” “……五年前远远地看到过一次,”戈洛什爵士语气中有些无奈,也有些尴尬,“胡闹的孩子……她在人类世界乱来,实在不成规矩。” „Young people, are rash or rebel some are normal, when you are young doesn't jump over Jumping Dragon Cliff?” Balogher Grand Duke shakes the head with a smile, „is regarded as in short of Human Race world travels, travels dozens years over a hundred years, played enough also to come back probably.” “年轻人,莽撞一些或叛逆一些是正常的,你年轻时不也跳过龙跃崖么？”巴洛格尔大公笑着摇了摇头,“就当做是在人类世界的短暂游历吧,游历个几十年上百年,玩够了大概也就回来了。” Sir Gorosh silent moment, a sigh: „...... Hopes so.” 戈洛什爵士沉默片刻,一声叹息:“……但愿如此。” ...... …… The cold wind blows, is walking Maggie by flight test field unable to bear sneeze big suddenly, felt that a strange chill in the air well ups. 冷风吹来,正走在飞行测试场旁的玛姬突然忍不住打了个大大的喷嚏,感觉一种奇怪的寒意涌上心头。 Walked looked at this Dragon descendant friend one eyes in nearby Rebecca immediately curiously: „Yeah? What's wrong? catch a cold?” 走在旁边的瑞贝卡顿时好奇地看了这位龙裔朋友一眼:“哎？怎么了？感冒了？” „...... Should not be,” Maggie makes an effort to rub the nose, in the heart somewhat is quite strange, „feels suddenly is a little cold, but also cannot bear sneeze.” “不……应该不是,”玛姬用力揉揉鼻子,心中颇有些奇怪,“就是突然感觉有点冷,还忍不住打了个喷嚏。” „Really wasn't day too cold catch a cold?” “真的不是天太冷感冒了？” „Definitely is not,” Maggie definitely shakes the head very much, „the body of Dragon descendant is very strong, especially does not fear coldly. I am comparing a here colder place to grow up since childhood, in the winter coldest time we will even also wear the unpadded garment to play ‚ice road to speed along’, that is a cold movement.” “肯定不是,”玛姬很肯定地摇摇头,“龙裔的身体是非常强壮的,尤其不怕寒冷。我从小就在比这里更冷的地方长大,冬天最冷的时候我们甚至还会穿着单衣玩‘冰道飞驰’,那可是一项寒冷的运动。” Rebecca immediately eye one bright, had the greatest interest: „Does ice road speed along? What is that?” 瑞贝卡顿时眼睛一亮,产生了莫大的兴趣:“冰道飞驰？那是什么？” „, Is one small game that among the Dragon descendant children are in vogue,” probably is because remembers the childhood amusing matter, Maggie could not bear smile, „main method forced in itself in a solid vat, along excavated the good ice road to roll in advance from the summit, to at the foot of the mountain looked that whose first stood- was right, spat the words will lose the qualifications directly, even if first stood is not good.” “啊,是龙裔孩子们之间盛行的一种小游戏,”大概是因为想起童年有趣的事情,玛姬忍不住笑了起来,“主要玩法就是把自己塞进一个结实的大桶里,从山顶上沿着预先开凿好的冰道滚下去,到山脚下看谁第一个站起来-对了,吐的了话就会直接失去资格,哪怕第一个站起来也不行。” Rebecca: „...... Wā!” 瑞贝卡:“……哇！” Walks is staring in another side Sonia, with unusual look looks at Maggie: „Does your Sacred Dragon Duchy person...... play this type of thing since childhood?” 走在另一边的索尼娅则瞪着眼睛,用异样的眼神看着玛姬:“你们圣龙公国的人……从小就玩这种东西？” Maggie thinks, shakes the head: „Naturally is not all children plays like this.” 玛姬想了想,摇摇头:“当然不是所有孩子都这样玩。” Sonia then relaxes: „I said......” 索尼娅这才松口气:“我就说……” „Girl is that method that I said- boy need not barrel.” “女孩子才是我说的那种玩法-男孩子不用桶。” Sonia: „?” 索尼娅:“？” This is really the custom of foreign country...... is not good to imagine. 这真是异国他乡的风俗……不好想象啊。
