„Manier, you goes to lead this person.” “马尼尔,你去将这个人带回来。” „Uncle Hamson, this man is the main objective of our visit to Los Angeles, didn't you give Shaque and flatter immortal nun are responsible for this matter?” “哈姆森叔叔,这个男人就是我们这次来洛杉矶的主要目标吧,您不是交给了沙克和阿仙尼负责这件事了吗？” Manier is Hamson's nephew, is Hamson's trusted subordinate. 马尼尔是哈姆森的侄子,也算是哈姆森的亲信。 Manier's parents had passed away are very long. 马尼尔的父母已经去世很久了。 Manier is Hamson raises personally. 马尼尔是哈姆森亲手带大的。 Moreover his magic is Hamson teaches hand in hand. 而且就连他的魔法都是哈姆森手把手的教出来的。 „Had/Left slightly accidental/surprised, this Chinese should also be spiritualist, now Shaque and flatter immortal nun was missing, has possibly encountered the misfortune, you are also careful, other person of I did not feel relieved.” “出了点小意外,这个中国人应该也是通灵师,现在沙克和阿仙尼失踪了,很可能已经遭遇不幸,你也小心一点,其他人我不放心。” „I understood, Uncle Hamson.” “我明白了,哈姆森叔叔。” „Moreover, I let the matter that you inquired, you inquired how?” “另外,我让你打听的事情,你打听的怎么样了？” „Los Angeles local spiritualist inquired some actually, crossed was unpleasant, moreover here person did not believe magic, therefore wants to look for a big fish is not easy.” Manier said: „Uncle Hamson, can we really develop here? Or we trade the supernatural foundation perfect place development.” “洛杉矶本地的通灵师倒是打听到一些,不过过的都不如意,而且这里的人都不怎么相信魔法,所以想找一条大鱼可不容易。”马尼尔说道:“哈姆森叔叔,我们真要在这里发展吗？要不我们换个灵异界基础完善的地方发展吧。” Manier said that Hamson knows certainly. 马尼尔所说的,哈姆森当然知道。 Why is North America the magic wilderness? 北美为什么是魔法的荒漠？ Incessantly because of short of history. 不止是因为历史的短暂。 Also because of here form of society. 同时也是因为这里的社会形态。 People like to believe money the strength. 人们更愿意相信金钱的力量。 Therefore to the matter of ghosts and gods relative does not believe. 所以对鬼神之事则相对的不那么相信。 In the heart of person has not believed that spiritualist that can awaken were naturally less. 人的心中没有信仰,能够觉醒的通灵师自然就更少了。 But can spiritualist descendant why overwhelming majorities awaken? 而通灵师的后代为什么绝大多数都能觉醒？ Because they know existence of magic, therefore awakens is easier, even there is own way and an experience. 就因为他们知道魔法的存在,所以觉醒更容易,甚至有自己的途径与经验。 In addition the innermost feelings do not believe that then supernatural organization that comes to here to stop over, will want to take root to germinate here also becomes exceptionally difficult. 再加上内心不相信,那么来这里落脚的灵异界组织,想要在这里生根发芽也会变得异常困难。 Hamson sighed: „You think that I do not think, these supernatural foundation perfect places that but you said that overwhelming majorities are by other influences, and developed for dozens years, even is over a hundred years, you thought why we do pass and others contend for the domain? Only has North America, most areas are also in the supernatural blank area, only then this environment, can make us take root to germinate.” 哈姆森叹了口气:“你以为我不想吗,可是你说的那些灵异界基础完善的地方,绝大多数都已经被其他势力占据,并且发展了数十年,甚至是上百年的时间,你觉得我们凭什么过去和人家抢地盘？只有北美地区,绝大多数地区都还处于灵异界空白地区,也只有这种环境,才能让我们生根发芽。” The establishment of immortal crown in London, but supernatural of London has been at the saturated condition. 不朽之冠的成立是在伦敦,可是伦敦的灵异界已经处于饱和状态。 No matter group individual spiritualist of supernatural, has numerous number. 不管是灵异界的团体还是个人通灵师,都多不胜数。 Although the immortal crown registers tenable in London, but actually could not find any development opportunities in London. 不朽之冠虽然是在伦敦注册成立的,可是在伦敦却找不到任何发展空间。 Occasionally discovered the talent youngster who such a two new promote awakened, just wanted to win over, finally discovered that these awakening have contacted with other groups. 偶尔发现那么一两个新晋觉醒的天赋少年,刚想要去拉拢,结果发现那些觉醒者已经与其他团体接触过了。 If continues to wait , the immortal crown will seem like a newborn baby, but also without developing to be strangled in the cradle. 如果继续这么等待下去,不朽之冠就会像是一个初生的婴儿,还没发展起来就被扼杀在摇篮之中。 Therefore Hamson the meeting wants to seek for an ideal place to develop. 所以哈姆森才会想寻找一个理想的地方重新发展。 But, in this world where ambitious place. 可是,这个世界上哪里有理想的地方。 In this time, supernatural actually is also the beneficiary of modern civilization. 在这个时代,灵异界其实也是现代文明的受益者。 Perhaps because also had the big piece magic blank area in the past, perhaps this place will not have spiritualist to visit here for a lifetime. 因为过去也许还有大片魔法空白地区,也许这个地方一辈子都不会有一个通灵师踏足这里。 But in this time, so long as the places of some people, basically have spiritualist. 可是在这个时代,只要有人的地方,基本上都有通灵师。 Each area had massive movements of population, the spiritualist fluidity also increases. 每个地区都有大量的人口流动,通灵师的流动性也变大了。 Again to looking for the magic blank area is not difficult, but is completely impossible. 再向找个魔法空白地区已经不是难了,而是完全不可能。 Therefore Hamson will decide, comes North American development. 所以哈姆森才会决定,来北美发展。 But North America develops naturally must choose that current economic condition best city. 而北美发展自然是要选那种经济条件最好的城市。 In North America, Los Angeles and New York as well as Washington and other city areas are very good places. 在北美地区,洛杉矶和纽约以及华盛顿等城市地区都是非常不错的地方。 At least from local sophistication, these world famous metropolises, even if spiritualist goes after like ducks. 至少从当地的发达程度而言,这几个国际知名的大都会,就算是通灵师都趋之若鹜。 However Washington is the political center of American, in addition the cautious attitude of American authority, is very difficult to permit a not controlled supernatural group takes root to germinate in Washington. 不过华盛顿属于老美的政治中心,再加上老美当局的谨慎态度,很难允许一个不被控制的灵异团体在华盛顿生根发芽。 New York also has 2-3 quite large supernatural organizations. 纽约当地也有2-3个规模颇大的灵异组织。 Perhaps the immortal crown arrives there, let alone was takes root to germinate. 不朽之冠恐怕去到那里,别说是生根发芽了。 It is estimated that must be pursued New York directly. 估计直接就要被驱逐出纽约。 Instead is this Los Angeles, making Hamson suit unexpectedly. 反而是这个洛杉矶,让哈姆森意想不到的适合。 Although here atmosphere difference, but at least also made him see the hope of growing strong. 虽说这里的氛围差了点,可是至少也让他看到了发展壮大的希望。 If depends on among their spiritualist to be related through marriage only, the descendant thinks that wakes up to maintain the population to be definitely insufficient. 如果单靠他们通灵师之间通婚,后代觉醒来维持人数肯定是不够的。 For example their previous generation lives in seclusion, the big several hundred people arrived at the fifth generation born, altogether remaining was less than 100 people. 就比如说他们的上一代隐居的时候,大几百号人到了第五代出世,总共就剩下不到一百号人。 Therefore must have the people outside community to awaken to join, can maintain a population of supernatural group. 所以必须要有群体之外的人觉醒加入,才能够维持一个灵异团体的人数。 „Uncle Hamson, we must stay here to develop, three choices.” “哈姆森叔叔,我们要留在这里发展,有三个选择。” „You said that looks.” “你说说看。” „A choice turns to the government.” Manier said. “一个选择就是投靠政府。”马尼尔说道。 Hamson knitting the brows head, he does not like contacting with the government. 哈姆森皱了皱眉头,他不喜欢和政府接触。 Person who in London, has the government contacted with them on own initiative, attempt made them turn into a part of government. 之前在伦敦的时候,就已经有政府的人主动与他们接触,试图让他们变成政府的一部分。 At that time Hamson has had the consideration, but the people of government also to them proposed that various types let the person the condition that was hard to tolerate. 当时哈姆森就已经有过考虑,可是政府的人又向他们提出各种让人难以容忍的条件。 This is also Hamson plans to shift the primary cause of position. 这也是哈姆森打算转移阵地的主要原因。 „Also?” “还有呢？” „Black... help/gang, we control one black... the help/gang, maintains the source of funds that the immortal crown grows as us, the risk is high, good that so long as hidden, there is an operating space.” “黑...帮,我们控制一个黑...帮,作为我们维持不朽之冠成长的资金来源,风险高,不过只要隐藏的好,还是有操作空间。” Hamson regarding this is not very satisfied: „Other means?” 哈姆森对此也不是很满意:“还有其他的办法吗？” „Looks for a merchant, becomes his boost.” Manier said: „If wants to provide to our adequate funds and development opportunities, needs a big merchant.” “找一个商人,成为他的助力。”马尼尔说道:“不过要想提供给我们足够的经费和发展机会,需要一个大商人。” Do not look population that the immortal crown chooses less than hundred people, in fact their expenses are not a small number. 别看不朽之冠选择的人数不足百人,实际上他们的开销就不是一笔小数目。 In addition their plans are to stay in Los Angeles to develop, that at least needs more than ten million US dollars. 再加上他们的计划是留在洛杉矶发展,那至少需要上千万美元。 But subordinate who wants to attach to a big merchant, that needs to create enough value. 而想要依附一个大商人的麾下,那就需要创造足够的价值。 Looks the big merchant who two needs the magic strength to be very easy, what is difficult found the person who needed for a long time. 找一两个需要魔法力量的大商人很容易,难的是找到一个长期需要的人。 Naturally, they can also look for a business, oneself depend on himself. 当然了,他们也可以找个买卖,自己靠自己。 However this seems like the best path, is the most impossible choice. 不过这条看起来是最佳的道路,也是最不可能的选择。 Depends on their these not modern business experience, all knowledge are on the ground beetle of time does business. 靠着他们这些毫无现代商业经验,所有知识都是上个时代的土鳖去做生意。 It is estimated how much money must throw away carelessly. 估计多少钱都要打水漂。 „Before then, we need from horse generation of Kuwait. Pavic there gets so far as enough much money.” Hamson said: „He has been short to our demands now was many, therefore this time seeking help may also be us and his last time cooperation, and in his hand also has our some handles, in our hands also has his many black material, but if we choice stays in Los Angeles to develop, planned that breaks off the relations with him, perhaps we very difficult peaceful coexistence, therefore got angry with its and other future, was inferior as soon as possible was lost the opportunity of making a move by him.” “不过在这之前,我们需要从马代科.帕维奇那里弄到足够多的钱。”哈姆森说道:“他现在对我们的需求已经少了很多了,所以这次的求助也有可能是我们和他最后一次的合作,并且他的手上还有我们的一些把柄,我们手上同样有他的很多黑料,而我们要是选择留在洛杉矶发展,又打算与他断绝关系,恐怕我们将很难和平共处,所以与其等将来翻脸,不如尽快的让他失去出手的机会。”
