泰维德岛犹如一座堡垒孤悬在黑沉沉的海面上,岛上有一座山峰,从鹡鸰海峡上只能看到山峰的南麓,植被繁茂。月华洒在泰维德岛与西海岸之间狭长的水道上,明晃晃一片,好像粼粼波光之上浮着一池银箔。West the islandsseacapeextendsin the sea, blocked the followingfield of vision, in the longcapehas a lighthouse, but the light beam in lighthousehas not illuminatednearbywaters, pitch-darkstanding erectabove the sea level, just likeoneto stand and wait for a long time the night watchmanundercurtain of night.
岛屿西面的海岬延伸进海中,挡住了后面的视野,长岬上有一座灯塔,但灯塔上的光柱并没有照亮附近的水域,黑漆漆的矗立在海平面之上,犹如一位伫立在夜幕下的守夜人。

岛屿向南几海里之外,两前一后三艘帆船挂着满帆,船尾在海面上拉出长长的航迹,在这静阑无声的夜色下缓缓驶向泰维德岛与鹡鸰海峡西海岸之间的水道。
The sailing shipgoes forwardatsixspeeds, thencrossedthatseacapequickly, Brandostoodin the bow, saw that the stylesimilarlighthouseis throwningloomysea, loftyinland seaand otherplaceswill have seenforeverwithhimslowlybehind, when the field of vision of canallaunchedcompletelyin the peoplefront, hethensawthatnorthVidhoyin the harborwithitrelativeGulf.
帆船以六节的速度前进,很快便越过了那道海岬,布兰多站在船头,看到那座与他在永黯之海、崇高内海等地见过的样式差不多的灯塔缓缓被抛到身后,当水道的视野完全展开在众人面前时,他便看到了那座在泰维德岛北面与之相对的海湾中的港口。„There is Quseir.”Insidolonalsolooks that directionsaid: „HereisseveralNecromancerdomain, inalldarknobleneutralizationhumanhave to do most isthisgroup of fellows, theyneed the elementmaterial and needskeleton, to need the spellcastmaterial, in briefis very troublesome, thisharborthenbysmuggling the peddleris established, at firstwas only an anchoring zone, afterwardgraduallyexpanded the embryonic form of cities, the bulks of inhabitants in harbor were actually human.”
“那里便是古赛尔。”因斯塔龙也看着那个方向说道:“这里是个几个亡灵巫师的地盘,在所有黑暗贵族中和人类打交道最多的就是这群家伙,他们需要素材、需要骸骨、需要施法材料,总之十分麻烦,这座港口便是由走私贩子建立起来的,起先只是一处锚地,后来逐渐扩展出了城镇的雏形,港口中的大部分居民其实都是人类。”„Human? ThatUndeads?”Whatopens the mouthislies the youngsteronbroad side, isNatsin'sadopted son, thatnamedmatchingBassetyoungster. AlthoughafterknowingDelphineandBrando's‚relations’( Delphinemade a false report that is the Brando'sfiancee), heoncegreatlywas lightly disappointed the ——youngsterthoughtsafter alllike the floating clouds, at presenthas restoredevidentlyusual.
“人类?那亡灵们呢?”开口的是趴在船舷上的少年,正是那辛的养子,那个叫做赛巴斯的年轻人。虽然在得知德尔菲恩与布兰多的‘关系’之后(德尔菲恩谎称为布兰多的未婚妻),他一度大受打击——不过年轻人的心思毕竟轻如浮云,眼下看样子已经恢复如常了。Feng Huopromised that givesRosaLinclanbyNine Phoenixesdomesticposition——in factinNine Phoenixesfief outside border. HoweverZallinThanenaturallycannotdrop out the one's ownbaseindustry, the migrationwork of territoryalsoneedsto preparefor a long time.

Althoughtheyalsomine the minerals, buildingworkshop. ButUndeadsdoes not needto occupyandpersonalSpace, thereforetheirfootholdsgenerallyare only a castleand a manorevengraveyard.”StandsanswerstohiminBrandoBlancopens the mouth.
“亡灵很少会在固定的地方建立聚居点,除了在亡月内海有些城市之外,亡灵巫师们更习惯居住在巫师塔中。他们虽然也开采矿产,建设作坊。但亡灵们不需要居住与私人空间,所以它们的据点一般只是一座城堡、一座庄园甚至一座墓园。”站在布兰多身边的勃兰克开口向他解释道。„Isinferiorundead.”Insidolonadded.
“是下等亡灵。”因斯塔龙补充道。
The Quseirportdirectionpitch-darkpiece, can only seevaguelyunder the moonlightenters the trestle in sea level, saw that inthiseachindividualheartraises not goodpremonition——thistime, althoughdoes not seem like the later generationto be equally brilliantly illuminated, but a harbor of human is always insufficienta wee bitlights unable to see, whataccidentonly ifin the harborhad.
古赛尔港方向黑漆漆一片,只能依稀看到在月光下伸入海面上的栈桥,看到这一幕每个人心中都升起不好的预感——这个时代虽然不像是后世一样灯火辉煌,但一座人类的港口总不至于一丁点灯火也看不到,除非港口中发生了什么样的变故。HoweverBrando, Delphine, InsidolonandTargushave not opened the mouthrashly, waitsclose to have a look at the situation, onarmor platesfor a momentno oneto speakagain. Onlyis left overwhish the wind sound/rumor, appearsexceptionallypeaceful.
不过布兰多、德尔菲恩、因斯塔龙与塔古斯都没有贸然开口,都等着靠近再看看情况,甲板上一时间没有一个人说话。只剩下飕飕的风声,显得异常的安静。Inthissilentdreariness, the sailing shipdrives into the Vadercanal, insertsstraightlyto the directionharbordirectionroute, innearbysea levelcannot see a shipor the junk, only thenin the right sidebroad side, in the beach heads on severalchainbesideVidhoy the ruggedquarry stoneis sending out the palerayunder the moonlight, just likeoverspreadwhite bones.
在这种无声的沉寂中,帆船驶入泰维德水道中,笔直地插向航向港口方向的航道中,附近的海面上也看不到一艘船或是舢板,只有在右侧船舷,几链地之外泰维德岛上的滩头上嶙峋的乱石在月光下散发着惨白的光芒,犹如铺满了白骨似的。Seesthis, thatyoungsteralsoclosed the mouthclever.
看到这一幕,那个少年也乖觉地闭上了嘴巴。
The shipthendrovenear the harborquickly, butat this timebad weather. Does not know that floated the thickcloud layerto block from the moonlightfromthere, making the visibility on canalonelower, all aroundcoveredin the density. Raydimmany.
船很快便驶近了港口,但正是这个时候天公不作美。不知道从那里飘来厚厚的云层遮住了月光,使得水道上的能见度一下低了下去,四周笼罩在氤氲之中。光线黯淡了不少。Among the peopleonly thenTargusandInsidolontwoundeadare not affected, Brando can also seein the dimly litsituationbyDark Perceptionveryfar, butafter allnotcompared withundead, undead the mode of action of darkvisiondifferentinhuman.
众人当中只有塔古斯与因斯塔龙两个亡灵不受影响,布兰多凭借黑暗感知也能在光线微弱的情况下看出很远,但毕竟不比亡灵,亡灵的黑暗视觉的作用方式迥异于人类。Threepeoplefocus on the harbordirection, in the harborare stoppingrows of sailing shipsdensely and numerously, singleWei of twomasts, only thenseveralsteamships, the mastseems like the forest the same as stand in great numbers, butabovedoes not have a hurricane lamp. Evenis the weakcandlelightcannot see, ontheseshipsnobody left. Cannot see the sign of human activities.
三个人都紧盯着港口方向,港口中密密麻麻停着一排排帆船,两桅的单桅的,只有几条大船,桅杆像是森林一样林立着,但上面没有一盏风灯。甚至是微弱的烛火也看不到,这些船上空无一人。也看不到人类活动的迹象。
The Brando'svisionsweepshas piled upintrestleanothercargo, the existenceshowingharbor'sfunctions of thesecargosandtheseshipshad not been affected. Whythen the ship of entiredaytimeinthissea levelcan't see?布兰多的目光扫过堆积在栈桥另一头的货物,这些货物和这些船的存在说明港口本身的功能并没受到影响。那么整个白昼在这一带的海面上为什么一条船都看不到呢?„Inharborhas the person.”Targusopens the mouthto saysuddenlysilently.
“港口中有人。”塔古斯忽然默默地开口道。„What?”
“什么?”„Inharborhas the person, ontheseshipsalsohas the person, wecansmellexistence of life.”Insidolonis also narrowing the eye, somewhatlooks at the Quseirportdignifiedly.
“港口中有人,那些船上也有人,我们能嗅到生命的存在。”因斯塔龙也眯着眼睛,有些凝重地看着古赛尔港。„Youdeterminedwhatisanchorstheseshipsinharbor. Are theywithnormally same?”Brandopoint atthatmastforestto ask, ifinPortfortunately, but how theseshipsseeseem like the one after anotherghostship, onshipspitch-dark, on the sternshas not hung the hurricane lampswith the mastson, if a twothis can also understand,iseachthis, that was too strange.
“你们确定说的是停泊在港口中的那些船。它们和正常一样?”布兰多指着那片桅杆森林问道,如果说港内还好,可那些船怎么看都像是一条条鬼船,船上黑洞洞的,船尾上与桅杆上也没有挂风灯,如果一条两条这样还可以理解,可是每一条都这样,那就太古怪了。„Ihad not said that they withare normally same, Mr Count, buton the shiphas the person, thisdeterminationwithout doubt, only ifsomepeoplemisledmeandTarguswithspellintentionally.”Insidolonreplied.
“我可没说它们和正常一样,伯爵先生,但船上有人,这确定无疑,除非有人故意用法术误导了我和塔古斯。”因斯塔龙答道。„Somehow manypeople?”
“有多少人?”„Littletenpeople, to20-30people, is distributedin the lower-levelcabin, whatifyousaidisontheseships,”Insidoloncontinues saying: „The personnel in harbordistributeveryevenly, intheseconstructions, does not seem like an ambush.”
“少则十人,多则20-30人吧,分布在下层舱室中,如果你说的是那些船上的话,”因斯塔龙继续说道:“港口中的人员分布得很均匀,在那些建筑内,看起来不像是一个埋伏。”„In other words, at presentQuseirallnormal?”Brandois staring at the Quseirport, deeplydrew out the browpressed: „Youthought that thisviewis normal?”
“也就是说,眼下古赛尔一切正常?”布兰多盯着古赛尔港,深深地蹙起了眉头:“你们觉得这个说法正常吗?”Insidolonshrugs: „Saidearnestly,Ithinkwas strange.”因斯塔龙耸了耸肩:“认真地说,我认为古怪极了。”„ThenFeng HuoandMr. Liu, yougo to the undeadharboraresuch?”
“那么凰火、柳先生,你们去过亡灵的港口是这样的吗?”Mr. Liushakes the head: „Thisharboris somewhat strange, even the curfew is still insufficientthissituation.”柳先生摇了摇头:“这港口有些古怪,就算是宵禁也不至于到这个地步。”„Do wealsowantto come ashoreto have a look?”Feng Huohas turned headto ask.
“我们还要上岸去看看么?”凰火回过头问道。BrandolookstoInsidolon, heis not ripetothissea area, butas the Madara'slocal bully, thisdecisionisgivesthesetwodarkMr.nobleto judgeat presentobviouslywell.布兰多看向因斯塔龙,他对这片海域不熟,而作为玛达拉的地头蛇,眼下这个决定显然是交给这两个黑暗贵族先生来判断最好。„Close tohas a lookagain.”
“再靠近一些看看吧。”Targushesitated the moment, replied.塔古斯沉吟了片刻,回答道。MissAdeniopens the cabin door, poked head to look atBrandoand the othersone on armor plates, frowned, thensat the staircase to followingcabin.阿德妮小姐打开舱门,探出头去看了甲板上的布兰多等人一眼,皱了皱眉头,然后又坐回通往下面舱室的楼梯上。Shelooked at the one's ownlittle friends, askedlow voice: „Makes a decision, Quayle, nowwhat to do can we?”
她看了看自己的小伙伴们,小声问道:“拿个主意吧,那奎尔,我们现在要怎么办?”Comes fromis surroundingtheirMissvice commanderLubeckgentlemenKnight, each othertalked in whispersto discussanything, butelfrangerleftslightlyis farther, both handssurrounded, by the bulkhead of narrowcorridor, back pressureone's ownlong bow.
来自于卢比克的骑士先生们正环绕着他们的副团长小姐,彼此窃窃私语讨论着什么,而精灵游侠离得稍远一些,双手环抱,靠在狭窄的过道的舱壁上,背压着自己的长弓。Listened to the words of opposite party, hebeganto come to seeAdenione, shakes the headgently: „Nowonly means that only thenfirstwiththatpersona period of time, Ithoughtto drawgodSir the eye of entireknowledgeto havesuchmattertemporarilyat that time, shouldhavewhatreason.”
听了对方的话,他起头来看了阿德妮一眼,轻轻摇了摇头:“如今唯一的办法,只有暂时先跟那个人一段时间,我想那个时候拉神大人的全知之眼会发生那样的事情,应该是有什么原因的。”„We who Mr.Quayle, yousaidunderstand, the point is that whatstatus do webytreatnowonthisship?”HasKnightto asklow voice.
“那奎尔先生,您说的我们都懂,可问题是,我们现在是以什么身份待在这船上?”有骑士小声问道。„Naturallybrings to light,”thatQuaylereplied: „Thatpersonis the envoy who draws the god, we can definitely followhim, thisalsofollows the decree of drawinggodSir.”
“自然是挑明,”那奎尔答道:“那个人是拉神的使者,我们完全可以追随他,这也是遵循拉神大人的旨意。”Alsocanexplain?
还可以这么解释?AudienceKnightstaresimmediately.
众骑士顿时一愣。„If by some chancehenot?”Appearance that Adenia littledoes not prefer, althoughsheis onlyvice commander, but after leavingLubeck, thisteamhas then given ordersbyher, no matter whatno oneis willingto give a strangerthispower.
“万一他不是呢?”阿德妮有点不情愿的样子,她虽然只是个副团长,但离开卢比克之后,这个队伍便一直是由她发号施令,任谁也不愿意把这个权力交给一个陌生人的。By such a rare and beautiful flowersreason.
还是以这么奇葩一个理由。„Had a looknot to know, footlongonusnot, in the bigdesertnothingcanfetter the sandstorm the freedom.”
“看看不就知道了,脚长在我们身上不是么,大沙漠中没有什么能够束缚住风沙的自由。”„Yeah, Iam notdo not support,”Adenisighed: „Imeant,wedo change a view?”
“哎,我也不是不支持,”阿德妮叹了口气:“我是说,我们换个说法?”„Changes a view?”Knightsstaresagain, thought that this can also changewhatview: „SirCaptain, whatopinion did you have?”
“换个说法?”骑士们再愣,心想这还能换个什么说法:“队长大人,您又有什么见解了吗?”„Youdid not think that canmake the envoyhireus, during” a pieceis jet black, the pupil of Adeniis sparkling: „Does thishave the difference of reward, ourenvoySirsseem like very richappearance.”
“你们不觉得吗,可以让使者阁下雇佣我们啊,”一片漆黑之中,阿德妮的眸子闪闪发光:“这是有没有报酬的区别,我们的使者大人看起来很有钱的样子。”„Martha above, Iknow......”
“玛莎在上,我就知道……”„OurKnightsreputation, was complete.”
“我们骑士团的名誉啊,全完了。”„Weare unfair toSirrecklessSai.”
“我们对不起胡赛大人。”Knights a pieceshrieks and howls wildlyimmediately.骑士们顿时一片鬼哭狼嚎。
A wailingsound that that sidehearsevenpassed to the Brando'sear, hisfrownedlooked atthat sideone.
那边传来的一片哀嚎声甚至传到了布兰多的耳朵里,他皱了皱眉头看了那边一眼。Thesepeople were also at that time the people who savefrom the ship of ghostcar(riage), hedoes not havewake uptimeTargusandInsidolonthinks that is the Blancsubordinate, butBlancthinksthatishisperson, thereforemadeblack dragonto make the opposite partyalsoembark. Howevercannotcatch up with disembarkothersin the sea, thereforemadethemkeepon the ship, originallyestimated that went to the sapphireonlymound to theseto disembark, has not actually thought that nowhassuchmatter.
那些人也是当时从鬼车的船上救下来的人,他没有苏醒的时候塔古斯与因斯塔龙都以为那是勃兰克的手下,而勃兰克则以为那是他的人,所以才闹了一个乌龙让对方也上了船。不过总不能在海上把人家赶下船去,所以才让他们一直留在了船上,本来预计前往青玉只丘就要让这些人下船的,却没想到现在又发生了这样的事情。ButBrandoalwaysthought that thesepeoplesomewhatlook familiar, whereas ifhas seen.
而布兰多总觉得那些人有些眼熟,似乎在什么地方见过似的。Hedrew in the moodquickly, took a fresh look that the shiphad driven intoQuseir Baytobowdirection——at this time, cannot seeotherboatanythingthing of guidance, inharborquiet, fromheretoward the gulfdirectionoverhalfli (0.5 km), the outline of entireharboris not most clearly discernible, howeverdoes not have a sound.
他很快收拢了情绪,重新看向船头方向——这时候船已经驶入了古赛尔湾,也看不到引导的小船还是别的什么东西,港口上静悄悄的,从这里往水湾方向最远不超过半里地,整个港口的轮廓已经清晰可见,然而还是没有一丝动静。As iftheirthesethreeshipsenterin the gulfnot to provokeanyresponseto be the same.
仿佛他们这三条船进入水湾内没有引起任何反应一样。
