闪烁的符文逐一黯淡下去,嗡嗡作响的水晶装置开始进入冷却流程,坐在一张特制座椅上的罗塞塔・奥古斯都睁开眼睛,从某种介于真实和虚幻之间的精神状态清醒过来。Hebreathes a sigh of reliefgently, felt that ownspiritrelaxed, notyearned forlaterleft the magicinstallment.
他轻轻舒了口气,感觉自己的精神久违地放松了一些,随后毫无留恋地离开了魔法装置。„Ifyoufeelspiritto be exhausted, canrest a meetingonthis,”WindsorMapelladysaidinside, „it, althoughis unable to curecurse, at least can also makeyoumore relaxed.”
“如果您感觉精神疲惫,可以在这上面多休息一会,”温莎・玛佩尔女士在旁边说道,“它虽然无法治愈诅咒,至少也能让您轻松些。”„Reduces the pressurewith the aid of the soulanaesthesia, althoughis effective, the long-termusewill actually weaken the will of person,”Rosetasaidlightly,„thiswas OK. Mapellady, situationhow?”
“借助灵魂麻醉来减轻压力虽然有效,长期使用却会削弱人的意志,”罗塞塔淡淡说道,“这样就可以了。玛佩尔女士,情况如何?”WindsorMapelpupillightlooks atRoseta, nodsquietlygently: „Iattemptedto induceyoursoulandconscious, the contaminationsituation of spiritaspecttrulyreturned to the normal level, buthad not discovered that by the sign of external force interference, basicallycanremove some people'syourspiritworldto the possibility that fudged.”温莎・玛佩尔眸光沉静地看着罗塞塔,轻轻点了点头:“我尝试诱导了您的灵魂和意识,精神方面的污染情况确实回到了正常水平,但没有发现被外力干扰的迹象,基本可以排除有人对您的精神世界动手脚的可能。”„...... The reasonis not on me......”Rosetaslightlyto hesitate, „lady, do youhavewhatview?”
“……原因不在我自己身上么……”罗塞塔略一沉吟,“女士,你对此有何看法?”„Asscholar, under the circumstances of insufficient evidencemeunderwill not judgeabsurdly, butIcansaymyidea. curse that the Augustusfamilysuffersis relatedwithspiritcontamination that Godsleaves behind, butGodsspiritcontaminationinnatehasto exceed the characteristics of space and timeandconfusionreality, andwould hardlybymediocrestrengthinfluence- aboutseveraldaysyourcurseunusualfluctuation .

“作为学者,在证据不足的情况下我不会妄下判断,但我可以说说自己的想法。奥古斯都家族遭受的诅咒与神明留下的精神污染有关,而神明的精神污染先天具有超越时空、混淆现实的特性,且几乎不会被凡俗的力量影响-近几日您身上的诅咒反常波动,而且原因与您自身的精神状况无关,那就说明是诅咒的根源受到了扰动,能够扰动它的,必然是与之同级或相近的力量……”„Same levelorclosestrength......” the Rosetabrowwrinklesslightly, „recentlyeach regionChurchdid not haveexceptionally, thisworld is also very longhas not hadGodsto fall the edictdirectly the matter, evenCecilEmpireHoly Light Churchchanges, has not affectedTyphon......”
“同级或相近的力量……”罗塞塔眉头微微皱起,“最近各地教会均无异常,这个世界也很久不曾发生神明直接降谕的事情,甚至塞西尔帝国的圣光教会发生巨变,也未曾影响到提丰……”Saying, heraised the headsuddenly: „Mapel had lady, whatmessageyoureceivedrecently?”
说着,他突然抬起头:“玛佩尔女士,最近你这边收到过什么消息么?”„Regionalmagiccommunicationtowerhave not reportedunusual circumstance- the communicationtowercoverage scopeis limited, floormagesmay notscreenaccuratelywith the Godsrelatedextraordinaryphenomenon, manyintelligencethereforedelay, mustfor a long timebe ableto delivertoImperial Capital,”WindsorMapelshakes the head, „Iwill pay attention tointelligence in thisaspect, hasanyconditionmetropolis/canfirstto reporttoyou.”
“各地的魔法传讯塔都未上报异常情况-不过传讯塔覆盖范围有限,底层的法师们又不一定能准确甄别出与神明有关的超凡现象,许多情报因此延迟,要很久才能送至帝都,”温莎・玛佩尔摇了摇头,“我会关注这方面的情报,有任何状况都会第一时间向您汇报的。”„Un......” the Rosetaslight nod, has the feelingto knit the brows saying that „communicationtower......, ifcanbe manysomecommunicationtowerortheircoverage scopesis broaderis good.”
“嗯……”罗塞塔微微点头,紧接着却带着感慨皱眉说道,“传讯塔……如果能多一些传讯塔或者它们的覆盖范围再广一些就好了。”„Costissueis really hardto be solved, moreoverdoes not haveso manymageto maintainthesemain facilities,”Windsor the Mapeltoneis helpless, „actuallyaftercompleting the Imperial Avenueplan, particularly after obtaining the magic energytrain, communication efficiency between the remote area and Imperial Capitalhas comparedwas highbeforewere more, oncethesebecause of the importantdegreebutinsufficientlyis unable to usecommunicationtowerintelligence to from the westand so on placedelivers toImperial Capitalprobablyto take about a month, nowactuallyonlytakesseveraldays, thisisprogressesgreatly.”
“成本问题实在难以解决,而且也没那么多法师来维护那些大型设施,”温莎・玛佩尔语气无奈,“其实在完成帝国大道计划之后,尤其是获得魔能列车之后,边远地区和帝都之间的通信效率已经比以前高了很多很多,曾经那些因为重要程度不够而无法使用传讯塔的情报要从西部之类的地方送到帝都可能需要将近一个月,现在却只需要几天,这已经是非常大的进步了。”„Was still insufficient- stillrememberswarning that the ministry of industryadvisory groupgives? The turnovercycle of factoryevencalculatesat the hourat the day, ifraw materialfluctuation of remote areacannotfeed backto the citypromptly, withinseveraldayspossiblycause the avalanchelosses, butneed the promptintelligencetransmissioninthisbackresource flow- machinepicked up the operating speeds of allthings, response and control of Aldernantosouthernandwestern areaactuallyby farinsufficient.”
“仍然不够-还记得工业部顾问团给出的警告么?工厂的吞吐周期以天甚至以小时计算,边远地区的原材料波动如果不能及时反馈至城市,几天之内就可能造成雪崩般的损失,而在这背后的资金流动更需要及时的情报传输-机器加快了所有事情的运转速度,奥尔德南对南部和西部地区的响应和控制能力却远远不够。”„Thesemanufacturers......”WindsorMapelsubconsciouslyknits the brows, in the toneis difficultto coversomedespises, „your majesty, theyexaggerated the factwith all due respect, andattempts ’ to highlighttheirimportantnaturewith ‚ the specializationglossary, butin facttheywantto makeyoulet loosesomecommunicationtowerjurisdictions, wantsto share benefitoriginally not manycommunicationtechniquequotafrom the imperialmageassociationhand.”
“那些工厂主……”温莎・玛佩尔下意识地皱了皱眉,语气中难掩些许鄙夷,“陛下,恕我直言,他们过于夸大了事实,且妄图用‘专业化的词汇’来凸显他们的重要性,但实际上他们只是想让您放开部分传讯塔的权限,想要从皇家法师协会手中分润本就不多的传讯术配额罢了。”„Ican look,”Rosetasaidindifferently, „, buttheysaidat leasthasportionisfact- particularlyin the situation that Cecilrises, ourshortcomingare becomingfatal.”
“我看得出来,”罗塞塔淡然说道,“但他们说的至少有一部分是事实-尤其是在塞西尔崛起的情况下,我们的短板正变得致命。”Cecil......塞西尔……Heardthisrecentlymore and morefrequentlyto appearin the Empire the words on newspapersandvariousrestricted data, WindsorMapelcould not bear the lookbecomesserious.
听到这个最近愈来愈频繁出现在帝国报纸和各种内部资料上的单词,温莎・玛佩尔也忍不住眼神变得严肃起来。Sheisseniormage, but also is the Emperoradviser, will be the frequent contact the Empirebusiness, will contactfellowcongressmen„nationalimportant person”one, regardingnationalsituationand so onmatterdon't understand a word, shedoes not certainly know that the RosetaGreat Emperoris worried aboutanything, knows that thiswill be worried is not groundless.
她是一名资深的法师,但同时也是皇帝的顾问,是会频繁接触到帝国事务,接触到各位议员的“国家要员”之一,对于国家局势之类的事情当然不会一窍不通,她知道罗塞塔大帝正在担心什么,也知道这份担心不无道理。WithoutoneinCecil of fastrise, Typhonianis havingmany thingsverybasicto be actually worriedonneed not, evenno onemeetsconscioustocertainthings is worthbeing worried- onsuch ascommunicationtowershortcoming, eachTyphonianthinks that the Empireabundantmagequantityanddistributesincommunicationtower of eachimportantprovinceisenoughuse, butafterhavingEmpireeach regionroadas well asnew of means of transportationnewrenovation, is usedto deal with the presentEmpiresituationwith the intelligencetransmission efficiency of itenhancementtogetherisenough and to spare, no onewill think that theirlow efficiency, evenmanypeoplewill feelthemenoughadvanced, in a century. Without the necessity of improvement.
如果没有一个正在快速崛起的塞西尔,提丰人有很多事情其实根本就不用担心,甚至没有人会意识到某些事情是值得担心的-就如传讯塔的短板,每一个提丰人都会认为帝国充沛的法师数量和分布在各个重要行省的传讯塔是足够使用的,而在有了新整修的帝国各地干道以及新的交通工具之后,与之一同提高的情报传递效率用来应付现在的帝国局势更是绰绰有余,没有人会觉得它们效率低下,甚至很多人都会觉得它们已经足够先进,一个世纪内都没有改进的必要。ButsidehasinfastriseCecil- thisdevelopmentfast„neighbor”brought„newthing”toTyphonianmany, for examplemagicaltechnology, for examplepressure of competition.
但偏偏旁边就有个正在快速崛起的塞西尔-这个发展飞快的“邻居”给提丰人带来了很多“新事物”,比如魔导技术,比如竞争压力。intelligencepersonnelbraved the dangerto sendmanyusefulthings, quiteportionwasto the description of Cecilfronttechnology, butthesedescriptions, let the RosetaGreat EmperorandthesevisionquitekeencongressmendetectedEmpiresomeshortcomingahead of time.情报人员冒着危险送来了很多有用的东西,其中相当一部分就是对塞西尔前沿技术的描述,而这些描述,让罗塞塔大帝和那些眼光较为敏锐的议员们提前察觉了帝国的一些短板。Thisprobablyis the pressure that the contrastcreates.
这大概就是对比带来的压力。„Theirmagic circuitcommunicationsdevelop rapidly, althoughbases onlong-distancefastcommunicationtechnology of communicationtechnique, buttheysolvedproblem that the cost and manpowertookobviously- thiswas the magicaltechnologyconsistentadvantage, Cecilianin the incisiveness that thisaspectdisplayed,”WindsorMapelsaidslowly,„wealwaystookprofessionalization, andhuge quantity ofmageteamsforarrogant, butobviously, Ceciliansubstitutedthesemagemethodsto have a higherefficiencywith the machine, at least oncommunicationtechnologywasso.”
“他们的魔网通讯发展迅速,虽然都是基于传讯术的远程快速通讯技术,但他们显然解决了成本和人力占用的问题-这正是魔导技术的一贯优势,塞西尔人在这方面发挥的淋漓尽致,”温莎・玛佩尔慢慢说道,“我们一向以职业化且数量庞大的法师队伍为傲,但显然,塞西尔人用机器来替代这些法师的手段有着更高的效率,至少在通讯技术上是如此。”As the president of imperialmageassociation, makinghersaythesewords is not easy, butsheknows, even ifsomewordsshedid not say,brilliantRosetaAugustushas also understood clearly, let aloneherteacher, Danielat this momentisEmpireGrandmastermagicalsecond to none, a lot of things that the lattercreateshad vacillatedin the associationreallyeachold-fashionedtraditionalmage- factis unable to dispute.
作为皇家法师协会的会长,让她说出这些话并不容易,但她知道,有些话哪怕她不说,睿智的罗塞塔・奥古斯都也早已洞悉,更何况她那位老师,丹尼尔此刻就是帝国首屈一指的魔导大师,后者创造出的很多东西已经实打实地动摇了协会中每一个古板的传统法师-事实是无从辩驳的。„The magic circuitcommunicationisgoodtechnology......”Rosetato keep a serious look, „wemustgraspit, orfoundto improveourcommunicationtowermethod, no matterpays the bigcost.”
“魔网通讯是好技术……”罗塞塔表情严肃,“我们必须掌握它,或者从中找到改进我们的传讯塔的方法,不管付出多大成本。”Saying, himis askingsuddenly: „Previouslyhad the merchantto sendone‚the magic circuitterminal’, analyzed the result?”
说着,他突然问道:“此前有商人送来了一台‘魔网终端’,分析出结果了么?”Talks abouttechnologydomain, Windsor the Mapelexpressionimmediatelybecomesearnest- sheknowsRosetarefers to„the magic circuitterminal”isanything, thatwas a respectablewesternmerchantbravesto cross the machine of borderby the riskbelt/bring that Cecilianstrangledsecretly, the merchanthidesitin the fur and spicepilehides the truth from the Cecil'sborderto inspect, after returning to homeland, gave toEmperorit, butthatpreciousmachinelies downnow, in the Empirelabormadein the laboratory of association, was coordinated the technologyteam that to analyzebyDaniel.
谈及技术领域,温莎・玛佩尔的表情立刻变得认真起来-她知道罗塞塔所指的“魔网终端”是什么,那是一个可敬的西部商人冒着被塞西尔人绞死的风险偷偷带过边境的一台机器,商人把它藏在皮草和香料堆里瞒过了塞西尔的边境检查,回国之后将其献给了皇帝,而那台宝贵的机器现在就躺在帝国工造协会的实验室中,由丹尼尔牵头的技术团队进行着分析。„Weopened the componentsit, returned to original stateitsinternal structurecomplexandexquisiterune and crystalstructure, perhapssoon, wecanduplicate a exactly the samemachineto come out, butthisdid not have the significance,”WindsorMapelshakes the head, „ Cecilianforced inoneset of verystrangeruneinthatmachine, itwas not the conventionalcommunicationtechnique, insideevenhad the Divine Spellcharacteristics, at presentalsono onecanexplaintheirconcretefunctions and meanings, wheremyverycuriousCecilianisobtained the inspiration, combinedsuchstrangeformation......
“我们把它拆成了零件,还原出了它内部结构复杂又精妙的符文和水晶结构,或许用不了多久,我们就能复制一台一模一样的机器出来,但这没有意义,”温莎・玛佩尔摇了摇头,“塞西尔人在那台机器中塞进去一套非常古怪的符文,它不是常规的传讯术,里面甚至带有神术的特征,目前还无人能解读它们的具体功能和含义,我非常好奇塞西尔人到底是从哪里得到了灵感,组合出了那样怪异的法阵……„TeacherDanielremindedus, ifcannotdoto understand that thoroughlyeachportionrunesignificance, imitationthatset of equipmentWill be rashly dangerousCecilianpossiblyhid the trapininside, theirperhapscaninterrupt the equipment that eveninterceptedusto copydirectly.”
“丹尼尔导师提醒我们,如果不能彻底搞明白每一部分符文的意义,贸然仿制那套设备将会非常危险-塞西尔人可能在里面隐藏了陷阱,他们或许可以直接截断甚至窃听我们仿制出来的设备。”„GrandmasterDanielis a brilliantperson, hisreminderis always critical,”Rosetanodsslowly, „carefullytreatsthatmachine, discovers the part that wecanusefrominside, other...... wewoulddoingto understand.”
“丹尼尔大师是个睿智的人,他的提醒总是非常中肯,”罗塞塔慢慢点了点头,“谨慎对待那台机器,从里面找出我们能用的部分,其他的……我们总会搞明白的。”„Ifcanobtain the prototype of magic circuitterminalto be good, ororiginalrunerubbingchart......”WindsorMapelsighed, „prototypehas not undergone the subsequentsimplification and optimization, insideoften had obvioustechnologymentality, perhapshelpsusrevealtheserunesecrets...... naturally, thisalso can only think.”
“如果能得到魔网终端的原型机就好了,或者原始符文拓印图……”温莎・玛佩尔叹了口气,“原型没有经过后续的简化和优化,里面往往带有非常明显的技术思路,或许有助于我们揭开那些符文的秘密……当然,这也只能想想而已。”
The Rosetafacial expressionis solemn, does not say a word.罗塞塔神情冷峻,不发一言。

那奇诡莫名的“神降危机”让书房中的每一个人都瞪大了眼睛(卡迈尔除外,他亮了一下),神明的诡异莫测和事情的凶险危急深深触动了所有人,而更加让他们感慨的,是这一切便发生在昨夜-Last nightwas uneventful, the Cecildim light of nightwas peaceful, butsomeworldactuallyheaven and earth turned upside down beyond reality, inremoteTyphonevenled to a Divine Descentcrisis, thisgaveHettyand the othersreally a seriousnotthird dimension.
昨夜风平浪静,塞西尔夜色安宁,可现实之外的某个世界却天翻地覆,遥远的提丰境内甚至爆发了一场神降危机,这着实给了赫蒂等人一种严重的不真实感。Afterdigests the hugeinformation content that Ancestorbroughtslightly, Hettythenentered the active statusquickly, shethinkingwhilesaid: „Eternal Sleepersthat sideshiftworkshouldstart, IstartEmpireheredockingimmediately- beforeAldernanresponded, weshouldshiftthesecorepersonnel and technologymaterialwith enough time......”
在稍微消化了老祖宗带来的庞大信息量之后,赫蒂很快便进入了工作状态,她一边思索一边说道:“永眠者那边的转移工作应该已经开始,我会立刻启动帝国这边的对接-在奥尔德南反应过来之前,我们应该来得及转移那些核心人员和技术资料……”„The portiontechnologymaterialwill sendthrough the mindnetworkin advance,”Gawain said that „, although the Eternal Sleepersheadquartersdid not have, theirmindnetworksare continue operate, butwill enter the efficiencylowly‚foundationpattern’, is unable to support the city of Dreamlandagain, the transmission of purematerial is actually not a problem. Naturally, for the obviousreason, mostcoretechnologymaterialcannotdeliver, Eternal Sleeperscanbringthem, the train that untilwesendleadsthemto the safeplace.”
“一部分技术资料会通过心灵网络先行送来,”高文说道,“虽然永眠者的总部没了,他们的心灵网络还是在继续运行的,只不过会进入效率最低的‘基础模式’,无法再支撑梦境之城,单纯资料的传输却不成问题。当然,出于显而易见的原因,最为核心的技术资料不会送过来,永眠者会带着它们,直到我们派去的列车把他们带到安全的地方。”Hettysubconsciouslyknits the brows: „Arrivedthis kind of time......”赫蒂下意识地皱了皱眉:“都到这种时候了……”„Normal reaction-, iftheydo not do that Imustworry that the genuine and fake of intelligenceandthesematerials of thesecoretalents,”Gawainsaidwith a smile, „felt relieved, Eternal Sleepersgrasps the mindstrength, ambushes for manyyearsinTyphon, isexpert who maintains lifeandflees, shouldneed notbe worried before theyat-largecome out, was graspedto get rid ofbyAugustus.”
“正常反应-如果他们不这么做,我才要担心那些核心人才的智力和那些资料的真假了,”高文笑着说道,“放心,永眠者掌握心灵力量,又在提丰境内潜伏多年,是保命和潜逃的专家,应该不用担心他们在逃出来之前被奥古斯都抓出来干掉。”„Your majesty,”floatopened the mouthinnearbyCarmel, „Eternal Sleepersmindnetwork, sincemustchange over to the foundationpattern, whetherouroriginlaboratorywill be affected?”
“陛下,”漂浮在一旁的卡迈尔开口了,“永眠者的心灵网络既然要转入基础模式,那我们的起源实验室是否会受影响?”„Theoretically...... cancontinueto operate, becauseitselforigins the spacenot to take the calculationstrength of city of Dreamland, moreoveritconstructsin the mindnetwork‚foundation course’, thatwill maintain one of the revolutionin all circumstances,” a Gawainslightlythinking, saidweeded out the speech that the woolweeded out dead, butonthread of conversationonerevolution, „I have preparedto conduct the transformation and shiftto the originspace, includingto the Eternal Sleepersentiremindnetwork, made a large-scaletransformation, makingitbe controlledbyus, was more harmless, nowobviouslyis the rightestopportunity, thereforeIplantemporarilyto closecurrent. OriginSpaceCarmel, whichour‚did the Immersion Cabinnetwork’ the presentprogressto?”
“理论上……是可以继续运行的,因为本身起源空间就没有占用梦境之城的算力,而且它构筑在心灵网络的‘基础层’,那是在任何情况下都会维持运转的一层,”高文略一思索,说出了薅羊毛薅到死的发言,但紧接着就话锋一转,“不过我已经准备对起源空间进行改造和转移,包括对永眠者的整个心灵网络,进行一次大规模的改造,让它更受我们控制,更加无害,现在显然是最合适的机会,因此我计划暂时关闭目前的起源空间-卡迈尔,我们自己的‘浸入舱网络’现在进展到哪一步了?”„Successachievein the laboratoryenvironment the network, inbeing separated from the situation of Eternal Sleepersmindnetwork conducted the simulation run, now the regulating networkoverallstability, is increasingitto the compatibility of magic circuitcommunications system, as well asmakes a revisiontoImmersion Cabin, makingitbearis smaller, more suitableuntrainedaverage personuse- escorts to the specially-mademachine that Glengetsis a successfulexample, weare studying the civileditioninitsfoundation.”
“已经在实验室环境下成功实现了组网,在脱离永眠者心灵网络的情况下进行了模拟运行,现在正在调整网络整体的稳定度,增加其对魔网通讯系统的适应性,以及对浸入舱做出一点修改,让它负担更小,更适合未经训练的普通人使用-送往葛兰领的特制机是个成功的实例,我们正在它的基础上研究民用版本。”„Verygood, thistransforms the Eternal Sleepersmission, buildsournetworks the crucial parts,”Gawainnodssatisfied, andshows a smilegradually, „, sincethisaspectprogressessmoothly......

“很好,这是改造永眠者教团,打造我们自己的网络的关键一环,”高文满意地点了点头,并渐渐露出一丝笑容,“既然这方面进展顺利……卡迈尔,我要交给你一个新的项目,它可以和你目前手头的事情同步推进。”Carmelmakeshumming sound the sound: „Newproject?”卡迈尔发出嗡嗡的声音:“新项目?”„‚Narrationneural network’,”Gawainsmileswas saying,„the futurestate-of-artdistributed communication system, will be establishedinitsfoundation.”
“‘叙事者神经网络’,”高文微笑着说道,“未来的尖端通讯体系,将在它的基础上建立起来。”
