The awkward topic ended finally, Gawain and Hetty felt that relaxes- later their attention then put on the shield of that Pioneer. 尴尬的话题总算是结束了,高文和赫蒂都感觉松了口气-随后他们的注意力便重新放到了那面开拓者之盾上。 This a shield that has the legendary prestige calmly lies down on the table, the bond stress that the decency corrodes packages inside is sending out the light silver light, nearly brand-new alloy main body, the sunlight sprinkles in its metal part surface, in glimmer that exudes seems precipitating the times of several centuries. Hetty somewhat gazed at it lost for a long time, coughed two to break gently silent: „Does ancestor, how you plan to propagandize this matter?” 这面有着传奇威名的盾牌静静地躺在桌上,风化腐蚀的金属覆层包裹着里面散发出淡淡银光的、近乎崭新的合金主体,阳光洒在它的金属部件表面,泛起的微光中似乎沉淀着数个世纪的光阴。赫蒂有些出神地注视了它许久,才轻轻咳嗽两声打破沉默:“先祖,您打算如何宣传此事？” If several years ago Hetty, in seeing the first response after shield of protector was the family glory obtained certainly consolidated, was a treasure returned to Cecil's treasury, what thought was the restoration of improvement and influence of family position, however the time had changed her for several years, at this time need not Gawain reminded, she knows how can display the value of this regaining treasure to the full. 如果是几年前的赫蒂,在看到守护者之盾后的第一反应肯定是家族荣耀得到了巩固,是一件宝物回到了塞西尔的宝库中,想到的是家族地位的提升和影响力的恢复,然而数年时光已经改变了她,这时候不用高文提醒,她就知道怎样才能最大程度地发挥出这件失而复得的宝物的价值。 „Announced to the public the Empire Dragon race friend to help us retrieve this shield, in addition do not make any official supplement or statement- gave public opinion to ferment all, making military intelligence agency complete the attention then,” Gawain spoke thoughtlessly saying that „this matter truly had no inside story, therefore the official caliber only needed saying that so many were OK.” “就对外公布帝国的龙族朋友帮助我们找回了这面盾牌,除此之外不要做任何官方的补充或声明-把一切交给舆论自己发酵,让军情局做好关注即可,”高文随口说道,“这件事本身确实没有任何内幕,所以官方口径只需要说这么多就可以了。” „Yes, the ancestor,” Hetty nods, later could not bear look at the shield of protector again, „has not really thought that...... it came back unexpectedly like this......” “是,先祖,”赫蒂点了点头,随后再一次忍不住把视线投向了守护者之盾,“只是真的没有想到……它竟然就这样回来了……” „Wartime years time, this shield is the expeditionary force to closing the important property, the life and death of many people pin on it, but that age had passed by,” Gawain shakes the head gently, the tone is light and low and deep, „present its at the same time shield- its back symbolic significance perhaps can bring some advantage to us, but also that is all.” “战争年代的时候,这面盾牌是远征军至关重要的财产,许多人的生死都寄托在它上面,但那个年代已经过去了,”高文轻轻摇了摇头,语气平淡而低沉,“现在的它就只是一面盾牌罢了-它背后的象征意义或许可以给我们带来一些好处,但也就仅此而已。” Hetty looked at Gawain one, looking pensive: „You do not hope people extremely pay attention to ‚the Kingdom protector’ return?” 赫蒂看了高文一眼,若有所思:“您是不希望人们太过关注‘王国守护者’的回归？” „We have important, a more actual matter to need to pay attention,” Gawain spoke thoughtlessly saying that „, on the other hand, to ‚the Kingdom protector’ excessive paid attention and publicizes likely stimulates the old Knight class and goes down in the world the aristocrats to be noble in the bloodline, the enthusiasm in family glorious aspect, making the social convention return again to the aristocrat ostentation and bloodline just worship in- our with great difficulty pressed to get down this thing, must avoid it staging a comeback, therefore in ‚the Kingdom protector’ at this matter, the government affairs hall created the propaganda and to the guidance of most basic merely then.” “我们还有很多更重要、更实际的事情需要关注,”高文随口说道,“另一方面,对‘王国守护者’的过度关注和宣扬很可能重新激发旧骑士阶层和落魄贵族们在血统高贵、家族荣耀方面的热情,让社会风气再度回到对贵族排场和血统正义的崇拜上-我们好不容易才把这东西按下去,必须避免它卷土重来,因此在‘王国守护者’这件事上,政务厅仅仅做最基础的宣传和正向引导即可。” Hetty deeply lowers the head immediately: „Yes, I understood.” 赫蒂立刻深深低下头去:“是,我明白了。” Gawain un, had not said anything in this topic again much, but after is the hesitation moment, seemingly asked one at will: „Before Carmel, astronomical observatory project that applied for now situation how?” 高文嗯了一声,没有再在这个话题上多说什么,而是沉吟片刻后貌似随意地问了一句:“卡迈尔之前申请的天文台项目现在情况怎样了？” „Do you mean the Palmer Observatory project?” Hetty blinks, reorganized the corresponding material in the mind rapidly, „project has verified through the government affairs hall, at present has started to construct. The first group of technology workers arrived in Palmer Highlands last week, at present the project is well underway. Moreover, the first issue had also designated based in scholar, the one who holds the post of the Palmer Observatory head is Archmagician Morgan Hugo mister.” “您是说帕拉梅尔天文台项目？”赫蒂眨眨眼,迅速在脑海中整理好了对应资料,“项目已经通过政务厅审核,目前已经开始建设了。第一批技术工人在上周抵达了帕拉梅尔高地,目前工程进展顺利。另外,第一期的常驻学者也已经选定,担任帕拉梅尔天文台负责人的是大魔法师摩尔根・雨果先生。” Gawain recalls the name that heard: „Morgan...... I remember that he original Wang Family/prince mage that came from St. Sunil.” 高文回忆了一下自己听到的名字:“摩尔根……我记得他是从圣苏尼尔来的原王家法师。” „Yes, Grandmaster Morgan is the original St. Sunil Wang Family/prince mage association and divines by astrology the member of master association, for dozens years have been old royal family divining by astrology adviser, are the astrology, the astrometry and planet natural science domain expert, he had once surveyed sketchy distance between our star and Sun . Moreover the perfect forecast the date of twice asteroid passing over gently and swiftly sky, is trustworthy in the knowledge. After the St. Sunil besieged city fights, old Royal Capital serious damage of stargazing tower in flames of war, until now without completely restore, therefore this ‚starry sky expert’ accepted Grandmaster Carmel invitation Southern Region, later heard that Palmer Highlands newly-built bed frame in modern technology astronomical observatory, he then registered willingly.” “是的,摩尔根大师是原圣苏尼尔王家法师协会和占星师协会的成员,几十年来一直担任旧王室的占星顾问,是星相学、天体测量学和行星博物领域的专家,他曾测算过我们这颗星球和太阳之间的粗略距离,而且准确预测过两次小行星掠过天空的日期,在学识上值得信任。圣苏尼尔围城战之后,旧王都的观星塔在战火中严重损毁,至今没有完全修复,因此这位‘星空专家’接受卡迈尔大师的邀请来了南境,之后听说帕拉梅尔高地将新建一座基于现代技术的天文台,他便自告奋勇地报名了。” „Such scholar is the Empire most precious object, must treasure to treat,” is listening to the introduction of Hetty, Gawain nod while said that „other, the Palmer Observatory that side can supplement an issue of fund- there was, in Empire best that Carmel surveyed ‚window’ one, more made it display to affect early is better.” “这样的学者是帝国至宝,一定要珍重对待,”听着赫蒂的介绍,高文一边点头一边说道,“另外,帕拉梅尔天文台那边可以追加一期资金-那里是卡迈尔测算出的、帝国境内的最佳‘窗口’之一,越早让它发挥作用越好。” „Yes,” Hetty receives an order immediately, later she could not bear look at Gawain two, showed a happy expression, „ancestor, you truly these that took seriously Grandmaster Carmel to propose sets up the astronomical observatory very much and observes the plan of starry sky.” “是,”赫蒂立刻领命,随后她忍不住看了高文两眼,露出一丝笑意,“先祖,您确实是很重视卡迈尔大师提出的这些设立天文台和观测星空的计划啊。” In the Gawain mind cannot help but appeared the conversation of former and Melitta as well as Noletta, recalled about the Verplanton astronomical observatory and these impressions about past Gondor magnificent technology, although many memories were not his, the regret and feeling that however that type infiltrated with the recollection memory are actually stuffing his innermost feelings clearly, this made him unable to bear sighs gently, looks at Hetty said seriously: „Related to starry sky research project very important-, although they possibly cannot see like the railroad and mine in a short time huge the economic efficiency, but in the long-term future, they might ferment the technology achievement of various change world, but even did not consider that these remote things, to unknown and distant place curious will still be the mortal develops the maximum Propelling force Hetty, this world's most mystical unknown will fill the secret place, in our top of the head starry skies.” 高文脑海中不由得浮现出了之前和梅丽塔以及诺蕾塔的交谈,回忆起了关于维普兰顿天文台、关于昔日刚铎辉煌技术的那些印象,尽管很多记忆并不是他的,然而那种随着回溯记忆而渗透出来的遗憾和感慨却真真切切地充塞着他的内心,这让他忍不住轻轻叹了口气,看着赫蒂郑重其事地说道:“涉及到星空的研究项目很重要-虽然它们在短期内可能看不到像铁路和矿山一样巨大的经济效益,但在长远的未来,它们却有可能酝酿出各种各样改变世界的技术成果,而即便不考虑这些遥远的事情,对未知和远方的好奇也是凡人发展最大的推动力-赫蒂,这个世界上最神秘未知充满秘密的地方,就在我们头顶这片星空中。” „I understood that your words,” Hetty is smiling, in the look brings a happiness, „ancestor, you do not forget- I am also mage, although I do not have the means to immerse like the past in the research, but I was still mage, but mage most craved in exploring unknown.” “我理解您的话,”赫蒂微笑着,眼神中带着一丝开心,“先祖,您别忘了-我也是个法师,虽然我已经没办法像从前那样沉醉在研究中了,但我仍然是个法师,而法师是最热衷于探索未知的。” Hetty that Gawain looks at is smiling at present, after several seconds of type, he also follows to smile. 高文看着眼前正在微笑的赫蒂,几秒种后,他也跟着微笑起来。 „ In the ancient Gondor age, Human Race had produced the curious, all kinds of astronomical observatory and stargazing stand proliferate in regional window to the starry sky of top of the head ‚’, mana ripples of our scholars in the atmosphere through the natural lane observation universe starry sky that interweave, guesses our world own secret, that is the magnificent and exciting age......, however before they develop truly, magic tide then levelled all. “在古老的刚铎年代,人类已经对头顶的星空产生了好奇,各种各样的天文台和观星站遍布在各地的‘窗口’中,我们的学者们通过大气中魔力涟漪交织出的天然通道观察宇宙星空,揣测我们这个世界自身的秘密,那是个辉煌而激动人心的年代……然而在它们真正发展起来之前,魔潮便抹平了一切。 „Now, perhaps was the time makes our portion lines of sight return in the starry sky.” “现在,或许是时候让我们的一部分视线重新回到星空之中了。” ...... …… Marme Du Neet who wears the golden-red two color law robes dangled the eyelid, both hands overlapped in the chest front, twined the gold bead skewer and protective charm in wrist/skill hangs to fall, is exuding slightly luminously in the light. 身披金红两色法袍的马尔姆・杜尼特垂下了眼皮,双手交叠在胸前,缠绕在手腕上的金质珠串和护符垂坠下来,在灯光中微微泛着光亮。 In the War God devout prayer, his innermost feelings is gradually tranquil, along with ear near vague, as if contains the sound of infinite knowledge to go far away gradually, this tall and powerfully built vigorous and healthy old person opens the eye slowly, looks to standing in oneself front Matilda Augustus. 在对战神虔诚的祷告中,他的内心渐渐平静下来,伴随着耳边若有若无的、仿佛蕴含着无穷知识的声音渐渐远去,这位身材魁梧健壮的老人慢慢张开眼睛,看向站在自己面前的玛蒂尔达・奥古斯都。 „Your Highness Princess, I shelters on behalf of Church thanks imperial family's support to this year's War God rite as well as to the believers constantly,” his voice said low and deep powerfully, „is willing War God to shelter you and your family, is willing to be full of the honor Augustus to stand erect forever in the land of this advocated blessings.” “公主殿下,我谨代表教会感谢皇室对今年战神祭典的支持以及对信众们始终如一的庇护,”他嗓音低沉有力地说道,“愿战神庇护您和您的家族,愿充满荣光的奥古斯都永远屹立在这片被主赐福的大地上。” „Supports Empire domestic Church operation is the Augustus family's duty, sheltering the Empire people is our inherent responsibility, before” Matilda cross-eye, wears old person slightly nodded of magnificent clothes, actually consistently maintains the discretion tone to say with the politeness respectfully, „War God Church is in Typhon strongest Church, you have huge influence on tens of thousands of Typhonian- our your majesty hopes to see you affect the believers as always, correctly, asking them to leave on correct road/s.” “支持帝国境内的教会运作是奥古斯都家族的义务,庇护帝国子民是我们与生俱来的责任,”玛蒂尔达对眼前身披华服的老人微微点了点头,用礼貌恭敬却始终保持分寸的语气说道,“战神教会是提丰境内最强势的教会,您对数以万计的提丰人都有着巨大的影响力-我们的陛下希望看到您一如既往地、正确地影响信众们,让他们走在正确的道路上。” On Marme Du Neet face has the tranquil smile, slight nod: „This is also the host gives my duty and responsibility.” 马尔姆・杜尼特脸上带着平静的笑容,微微点头:“这也是主赋予我的义务和责任。” Under the dignified broad iron apex, in war Great Holy Hall the brilliantly illuminated, thick white candle lightened in the niche like the stars, illuminated this sacred palace that belonged to War God. The annual War God rite is approaching, this is this national grandest Religion nature holiday of taking the War God belief as mainstream Religion, Matilda as the imperial family representative, according to the tradition sent the congratulatory gift and correspondence of Emperor writing on this day, but now this routine business, ceremonial pay a visit have walked the flow. 在庄严恢弘的铁质尖顶下,战争大圣堂中灯火通明,粗大的白色蜡烛如繁星般在壁龛中点亮,照亮了这座属于战神的神圣殿堂。一年一度的战神祭典正在临近,这是这个以战神信仰为主流教派的国家最盛大的宗教性节日,玛蒂尔达作为皇室代表,按照传统在这一天送来了贺礼和皇帝亲笔书写的信函,而现在这例行公事的、仪式性的拜访已经走完流程。 After all links finished, in the Matilda innermost feelings relaxes slightly, she looked at this dignified to feel the constriction palace, saw that Bishop and priests scene have pressed the flow order to the field, later she took back the line of sight, nods to present War God Pope: „This year's rite should be grander than the old times- economy is rising, the wealthy resident currently has more wealth to be used to celebrate the holiday, but many people in peripheral village were also centralized to Aldernan come.” 待所有环节都结束之后,玛蒂尔达内心中稍稍松了口气,她看了这个庄严又充满压迫感的殿堂一眼,看到现场的主教和祭司们都已按流程次序离场,随后她收回视线,对眼前的战神教皇点了点头:“今年的祭典活动应该会比往年更为盛大-经济正在上升,富裕市民现在有更多的财富用于庆祝节日,而周边乡村里的很多人也集中到奥尔德南来了。” „The prosperous scene that can foresee,” Marme Du Neet nods, „Church will control the good order, our permission will not make the imperial family embarrassed matter happen.” “可以预见的兴旺场面,”马尔姆・杜尼特点点头,“教会将控制好秩序,我们不会允许让皇室难堪的事情发生。” Matilda looks at present old Pope, shows a smile: „Naturally, I and my father trust you in this point- you are always the Augustus family's friend.” 玛蒂尔达看着眼前的老教皇,露出一丝微笑:“当然,我和我的父亲都在这一点上信任您-您一向是奥古斯都家族的朋友。” „Personal friendship, I know, personal friendship,” Marme Du Neet that always board the face also smiles later to soften at present in one of the female, this robust and had once done the old person who accompanies the armed forces Priest smiles, in the tone leads to tease, „you will not accept my baptism.” “个人友谊,我知道,个人友谊,”马尔姆・杜尼特那总是板着的面孔也在眼前女子的一个微笑之后软化下来,这位身材健壮、曾做过随军牧师的老人笑了笑,语气中带着一丝调侃,“你们可不会来接受我的洗礼。” „The Augustus family's members have not accepted any other Church baptism,” Matilda spread out the hand with a smile, „I think that this guaranteed imperial family's balance in Religion issue- we do not have Church.” “奥古斯都家族的成员也没有接受其他任何教会的洗礼,”玛蒂尔达笑着摊开了手,“我认为这样才保证了皇室在宗教问题上的平衡-我们可不只有一个教会。” „...... Roseta has used this set of view to deal with my many years, now was one's turn you saying that similar words,” Marme looked at Matilda one reluctantly, later shifted the topic, „we did not discuss these. Can Matilda, before, speak you to me in the Cecil's story?” “……罗塞塔已经用这套说法应付我许多年了,现在轮到你说同样的话了,”马尔姆无奈地看了玛蒂尔达一眼,随后转移了话题,“我们不谈论这些了。玛蒂尔达,在回去之前,要跟我讲讲你在塞西尔的见闻么？” „Naturally, some of my also time,” Matilda nods, but then some doubts looked at present old Pope one, „were you also interested in the Cecil's experience to me suddenly? I came back the less than half year from Cecil, but you always did not care about the matter outside Church.” “当然,我还有些时间,”玛蒂尔达点了点头,但紧接着便有些疑惑地看了眼前的老教皇一眼,“不过您怎么突然也对我在塞西尔的经历感兴趣了？要知道,我从塞西尔回来已经小半年了,而您则一向不怎么关心教会之外的事情。” „...... Indulges in indoor person will have to hear the thunderclap the time again,” Marme said slowly, „, moreover in this city the related Cecil's thing were getting more and more recently, various news had even passed to Great Holy Hall, even if did not care, I also heard to see.” “……再沉溺于室内的人也会有听到雷声的时候,”马尔姆慢慢说道,“而且最近这座城市中有关塞西尔的东西越来越多,各种消息甚至已经传到了大圣堂里,哪怕不关心,我也都听到看到了。” „Pouring is also......” Matilda has a feeling, „the time of economic interaction...... the circulation of information became is different from before.” “倒也是……”玛蒂尔达带着一丝感慨,“经济交流的时代……信息的流通变得跟以前不一样了。” „However more than one before merely year, the situation clearly is opposite with today,” Marme shakes the head, „we and Cecil play out, almost all people think that we will soon welcome a war, innumerable war Priest were ready, Great Holy Hall even lit ahead of time incense and volatile oil that gave to War God- then, the peace came suddenly.” “然而仅仅一年多以前,情况还和今天截然相反,”马尔姆摇了摇头,“我们和塞西尔剑拔弩张,几乎所有人都认为我们即将迎来一场战争,无数的战争牧师做好了准备,大圣堂这边甚至提前点燃了献给战神的熏香和精油-然后,和平就突如其来地来了。” „Did you feel regrettably?” Matilda looks at present War God Pope, asks very much earnestly. “您是对此感到遗憾了么？”玛蒂尔达看着眼前的战神教皇,很认真地问道。 Marme looked at this „the Empire pearl”, old, but still on the spirit healthy face bloomed suddenly a smile. 马尔姆看了这位“帝国明珠”一眼,苍老但仍然精神矍铄的面孔上突然绽放开一丝笑容。 „Your highness, I am the War God servant, but the War God servant is not a war hysteria- we and sever the order of war fairly, rather than anticipating frequently in this world fills the war. Naturally, I truly am the war party, but I acknowledged that the aspect of prosperous and stable is good to the people. But this sudden ‚peace’ also truly makes one be caught off guard...... I to be somewhat stunned, was the war prepared for Bishop and Priest somewhat is stunned.” “殿下,我是战神的仆人,但战神的仆人并不是战争狂-我们只是为战争的秩序和公平服务,而不是时时刻刻期待着这个世界上充满战争。当然,我本人确实是主战派,但我承认繁荣稳定的局面对子民们更有好处。只不过这突如其来的‘和平’也确实让人措手不及……我有些错愕,很多为战争做好了准备的主教和牧师们都有些错愕。” „As can be appreciated, after all War God Priest are always important one of the Empire army, but present ‚peace’ aspect also truly stemmed from everyone to expect that......” Matilda nods gently, has the understanding and approval said that but she hesitated later for several seconds, shakes the head slowly, „in my opinion, ‚peace aspect’ this view was just inaccurate.” “可以理解,毕竟战神的神官们一向是帝国军队的重要一员,而如今的‘和平’局面也确实出乎了所有人预料……”玛蒂尔达轻轻点了点头,带着理解和认同说道,但随后她沉吟了几秒钟,又慢慢摇了摇头,“只不过在我看来,‘和平局面’这种说法并不准确。” Tall and strong Pope cannot bear raise the eyebrow: „Oh?” 魁梧的教皇忍不住扬起眉毛:“哦？” „We avoided a bleeding war, war perhaps that but does not bleed will still continue,” Matilda said very much earnestly, „ this is the parliamentary and judgment of imperial family advisory group- we will scramble for the market with Cecilian, we will strive for the influence and right to speak on continent with them, we will compete literacy rate with them, the competition scope of large cities, competes the investment and achievement on technology, we received the sword, actually started a more comprehensive competition, the economy, the politics, technology......, but all these aimed at national benefit finally. “我们只是避免了一场流血的战争,但不流血的战争或许仍将持续,”玛蒂尔达很认真地说道,“这是议会和皇室顾问团的判断-我们将和塞西尔人争夺市场,我们将和他们争夺在大陆上的影响力和话语权,我们将和他们比拼识字率,比拼城市规模,比拼在技术上的投入和成果,我们收起了刀剑,却开始了更全面的竞争,经济,政治,技术……而所有这些最终都指向国家利益。 „My father sovereign told me, this was also a war, one had nothing to do in the sword, does not need to bleed, cannot hear to slaughter, war that but will not stand still every single minute, but this war was named as the peace, moreover prosperity that people saw in the flames of war surface energy- at least before two giant beasts decided the victory and defeat was this.” “我的父皇告诉我,这也是一场战争,一场无关于刀剑,不需要流血,听不见厮杀,但每分每秒都不会停歇的战争,只不过这场战争被命名为和平,而且人们在战火表面能看到的只有繁荣-至少在两头巨兽分出胜负之前是这样的。” Marme Du Neet calmly is listening to the Matilda words, in that pair of deep brown eyeball full is Chen Ning, he seems to be thinking, but does not have any expression reveals. 马尔姆・杜尼特静静地听着玛蒂尔达的话,那双深沉的褐色眼珠中满是陈凝,他似乎在思索,但没有任何表情流露出来。 A moment later he places the chest front both hands, read aloud the War God given name in a low voice, the mood is returning to little normal. 片刻之后他将双手重新放在胸前,低声念诵着战神的名号,心情一点点恢复平静。 „You should be able to understand words that I spoke.” Matilda looks at at present this old person of noble character and high prestige, although Augustus family always to all Gods remain at a respectful distance, but at least in the private contact, this old man who made one admire is a Augustus family many years of friend, she also once received quite a lot looking after of opposite party in the childhood period, therefore she is willing to tell this old person, she knows the opposite party, although seemingly serious old-fashioned, actually was also quick-thinking, the understanding ability remarkable wise man, these words he is can understand immediately. “您应该能理解我说的话。”玛蒂尔达看着眼前这位德高望重的老人,尽管奥古斯都家族一向对所有神明敬而远之,但至少在私人交往上,这位令人敬佩的老者是奥古斯都家族多年的朋友,她在童年时期也曾受过对方的颇多关照,因此她愿意跟这位老人多说一些,她知道对方虽然看似严肃古板,却也是个思维敏捷、理解能力卓越的智者,这些话他是立刻就能听懂的。 „War actually continuously, but the form and range of war changed.” She nods finally, summary said. “战争其实一直都在,只是战争的形式和范围都改变了。”她最后点了点头,总结性地说道。 „Thought-provoking,” Marme Du Neet nods after the silence of moment, the tone said deeply, „this is I have never considered the angle.” “令人深思,”马尔姆・杜尼特在片刻的沉默之后点了点头,语气深沉地说道,“这是我从未考虑过的角度。” Matilda shows a smile: „Before you said that these deep words, you do not mind well.” 玛蒂尔达露出一丝笑容:“在您面前说这些深沉的话,您不介意就好。” Marme Du Neet led an elder to favor the expression of drowning younger generation to smile: „Naturally cannot.” 马尔姆・杜尼特带着一丝长辈宠溺晚辈的表情笑了起来:“当然不会。” Please remember this book first round domain name:. 4 novel net cell phone version reading websites: 请记住本书首发域名:。四小说网手机版阅读网址:
