The dim light of nightis deepgradually.
夜色渐深。Tonight'sIce Rock Citydoes not have the moonlight, only thenstars.
今晚的冰岩城没有月光,只有点点繁星。Colin Stationlooks into the distancetoward the distant placein the balcony in Red Fort.
柯林站在红堡的阳台上往远处眺望。
The north sideis the coldandbarrenvault of heavenicefield, buteast side, thencansee the forest the edge.
北边是寒冷而贫瘠的苍穹冰原,而东边,则能看见森林的边缘。Thatpitch-darkLin Haizhong, does not know that hidmanywild animals.
那黑漆漆的林海中,也不知道隐藏了多少野兽。Crossesthatjet blackforest, canenter the territory in halfelfkingdom.
越过那片漆黑的森林,就能进入半精灵王国的领地了。Footsteps sound, Knight CharlappearsinColinbehind: „Sir, do youlook forme?”
脚步声响起,夏尔骑士出现在柯林身后:“大人,您找我?”„Sits.”Colinturns around, referred to the redwine glass on table, „drinks.”
“坐吧。”柯林转过身来,又指了指桌上的红酒杯,“喝点吧。”Knight Charlsomewhathesitates: „Sir, Ihave preparedto stop drinking.”夏尔骑士有些犹豫:“大人,我已经准备戒酒了。”„All right, littledrinks.”Colinpersists insaying.
“没事,少喝点。”柯林坚持道。Knight Charlthencarries the wine glass, bumpswithColingently, sends in the mouth.夏尔骑士这才端起酒杯,与柯林轻轻一碰,送入嘴边。Colinis drinking the red wine, simultaneouslyis paying attention to the response of Knight Charl.
柯林喝着红酒,同时注意着夏尔骑士的反应。HegivesCharlthatglass of red wines, insideis poisonous.
他给夏尔的那杯红酒,里面有毒。Naturally, thisis notColininintentionallypitownBlood Descendant.
当然,这不是柯林在故意坑自己的血裔。Heis doing an experiment.
只是他在做一个实验。Moreoverbeforehehas testedonBlood Slave, discoversthem to be able the immunityviolently poisonousmaterial.
而且之前他已经在血奴身上实验过了,发现他们全都能够免疫剧毒物质。Therefore, hefelt,Blood Descendant of higher level, shouldalsobe ableto be exempt from the violently poisonousviolation.
所以,他觉得,更高级的血裔,应该也能免受剧毒的侵害。„What kind of? What did these daysbodyhaveto change?”Colinputs down the wine glass, asked.
“怎么样?这几天的身体有什么变化么?”柯林放下酒杯,问道。Charlputs down the wine glass, the lookis reportingowndiscoverytoColinexcitedly.夏尔放下酒杯,神色激动地向柯林汇报着自己的发现。Throughopposite party'snarration, Colinknew, the Knight Charlpresentchangelooks likewithhimvery much.
通过对方的叙述,柯林得知,夏尔骑士现在的变化跟他很像。Fears the light, the bloodthirsty, does not die......
畏光,嗜血,不死……Yes, Charlthisruthlesspersonafterdiscoveringownbroken fingerlong is good, startsto do the experimentwithownbody.
是的,夏尔这个狠人在发现自己的断指重新长好后,就开始拿自己的身体做实验。Then, hediscoveredoneselfdo not have the mortal woundthoroughly.
然后,他就发现自己已经彻底没有了致命伤。Naturally, whatis differentfromBlood Slave, Charlaching feelingstillalso.
当然,跟血奴不一样的是,夏尔的疼痛感依然还在。Colinis stroking gently the chin, falls intothinks deeply.
柯林摩挲着下巴,陷入深思。Hewantsto knownow,Blood Descendantcanalsothroughtaking the blood of high rankknightthuspromotes.
他现在很想知道,血裔能不能也通过吸食高阶骑士的鲜血从而晋升。However, Charlat presentis the third-orderknight, inColinhandmaynot have the blood of fourth-orderknightto do the experiment.
不过,夏尔目前已经是三阶骑士了,柯林手里可没有四阶骑士的鲜血来做实验。„Can youcontrolyourcanine tooth?”Colinalsoasked.
“你能控制自己的虎牙吗?”柯林又问道。„Canine tooth?”Knight Charlwas puzzled, thenopened the mouth, revealedtwo not conspicuouscanine teeth, „probably...... cannot.”
“虎牙?”夏尔骑士一脸疑惑,然后张开了嘴,露出两颗并不显眼的虎牙,“好像……不能。”„Graciousness......”
“恩……”Colinguessed,Blood Descendantcannotcontrol the canine toothelongatedwords, perhapsis unable through the canine toothreleaseblood poison, is unable to makeBlood Slave.
柯林猜测,血裔不能控制虎牙伸长的话,恐怕就无法通过虎牙释放血毒,也就无法制造血奴了。Naturally, is unable to conduct completelyinitiallysupports, manufacturenext generationBlood Descendant.
当然,也就更无法进行完整的初拥,制造下一代血裔了。Afterward, Colinalsochatted the matters concerned in somecavalryconstructionwithKnight Charl, looked that the opposite partylookhas been usual, withoutwas affectedby the poisoned liquorcompletely, Colinalsoconfirmed the Blood Descendantimmunityviolently poisonousfact.
随后,柯林又跟夏尔骑士聊了一些骑兵建设方面的事宜,看对方一直神色如常,完全没有受到毒酒的影响,柯林也就确认了血裔免疫剧毒的事实。„Was right, do youlikegoing hunting?”Colinaskedsuddenly.
“哦对了,你喜欢打猎吗?”柯林忽然问道。Knight Charlgawked, the nodsaid: „Verylikes.”夏尔骑士愣了一下,点头道:“挺喜欢的。”„Un, previoustimegoes huntingwithknight, thisfellowbumped into a mysteriousknight, was punched, cannotenjoy oneself to the full. Iplannedto accompanyhimto goagainonetime, but was too recently busy. Ifyouhave free time, accompanieshimto playagain.”
“恩,上次跟雷戈骑士去打猎,这家伙碰上了个神秘骑士,被揍了一顿,没能尽兴。我本来打算再陪他去一次,不过最近太忙了。你要是有空,就陪他再去玩玩。”Previoustimeafterborrows the blood, Colinsmoothlypromotessecond-order.
上次跟雷戈借血后,柯林顺利地晋升到了二阶。However, hethought that bloodshouldalsobe ableto helphimpromoteagainthird-order, thereforewantsto borrowagainonetime.
不过,他觉得雷戈的鲜血应该还能再帮他晋升到三阶,所以想再借一次。ButColindid not planto getto go huntingagain, was so easyto cause the suspicion of opposite party.
但柯林不打算再自己领雷戈去打猎了,那样容易引起对方的怀疑。IffollowsColinto go outto go huntingeach timeis attacked, isstupidlywill also suspect that again the raider may be very concernedwithColin.
如果每次跟着柯林出去打猎都会受袭击,那雷戈就是再傻也会怀疑袭击者很可能跟柯林有关。Therefore, heplanned that makesKnight Charlgoknightto direct.
所以,他就打算让夏尔骑士去把雷戈骑士引出来。„Good.”Knight Charldoes not doubthim, the naturenodshouldunder.
“好的。”夏尔骑士不疑有他,自然点头应下。
After packing offKnight Charl, Colincarries the wine glass of opposite party, pours into the insidesurpluspoisoned liquor the mouth.
送走夏尔骑士后,柯林端起对方的酒杯,将里面剩余的毒酒灌入自己口中。Blood SlaveandBlood Descendantcan the immunitybe violently poisonous, oneselfshouldnot have the issue.血奴和血裔都能免疫剧毒,那自己应该更没问题吧。Colinsothinks.
柯林如此想到。
In heis feeling the change of bodycarefully, the sound of footstepsresoundsagain, the Eamonnstewardappearsin the balcony: „Master, do youlook forme?”
就在他细细感受着身体的变化时,脚步声再次响起,伊蒙管家出现在阳台上:“老爷,您找我?”Colinnods: „Sits.”
柯林点点头:“坐吧。”Two peoplesit downin the balcony, Colinclaps, making the maidservantcarrytwoglasses of red winesandsomedried fruits.
两人在阳台上坐下,柯林拍拍手,让侍女重新端上两杯红酒和一些果干。Naturally, inthistimeliquordoes not have the poison.
当然,这次的酒里没毒。
The maidservantssuspendsoftly the thingon the table, thenleavesrapidly.
侍女轻手轻脚地将东西摆好在桌上,然后迅速离开。„Did youchange the retinues in castle?”Colindrank a red wine, asked.
“你把城堡里的仆从都换了一遍?”柯林喝了口红酒,问道。„No, butchanged the personalretinue of yourside, thisalsoforyoursecurity concern, moreoverspendsare not many.”Eamonnansweredhastily.
“没有,只是将您身边的贴身仆从换了一遍,这也是为了您的安全考虑,而且花费也并不多。”伊蒙连忙解释道。Colinnods, has not saidanything.
柯林点点头,并没有说什么。
The Red FortpresentretinuesbasicallyalsoSuduo Familyremainedinitially, Colindid not planto replacecompletely, after allrecruiting of newretinuealsohastrainingto needto spend, butat present the Angeliefamily'sfinancial conditionsare not ample.
红堡如今的仆从基本还都是当初苏铎家族留下来的,柯林本来不打算全部换掉,毕竟新仆从的招募还有培训都需要花钱,而目前安格列家族的财政状况并不宽裕。Heneedsto saveas far as possibleeachsum of money, usesinessentialplace- for examplemodernization of the armed forces.
他需要将每一笔钱都尽量节省出来,用在关键的地方-比如军队建设。However, healsoknows that the seniorstewardstemming from the good intention, has not then reproven.
不过,他也知道老管家是出于好心,便没有训斥。„How does Quincythisnewtax collectordoat present?”
“昆西这个新任税务官目前干得怎么样?”„Very good.”Eamonnnodswith a smile, „masteryoufound a veryoutstandingtax collector.”
“很不错。”伊蒙笑着点头,“老爷您找到了一位非常出色的税务官。”„Un, thatis good. However, you must stare at his point, Ihave not been ableto trusthimnowcompletely.”
“恩,那就好。不过,你也要盯着他一点,我现在还不能完全信任他。”„Iunderstand.”
“我明白。”SeesEamonnto understand that ownmeaning, Colinthenfelt relieved, pulls out a letter/believesfrom the coat pocket, gives the seniorsteward:
见伊蒙明白自己的意思,柯林便放下心来,又从上衣口袋里掏出一封信,递给老管家:„Justreceived the reply of marquisDawson, heagreed that provides the warhorseandarmorforushas. However, thisprice...... was too a little high, youhave a lookto be appropriate.”
“刚刚收到道森侯爵的回信,他同意为我们提供战马和甲具。不过,这价格……有点太高了,你看看合不合适。”Eamonncarefullylooked at a reply of marquisDawson, after thinking the moment, said:伊蒙仔细看了一遍道森侯爵的回信,想了片刻后说道:„Master, wecanmakemarquisDawsonprovidea number ofsamples, if the samplequality, is truly as goodas he saidrides the standardequipment of armyblack, thatthisprice is not truly high.”
“老爷,我们可以让道森侯爵提供一批样品,如果样品的质量确实如他所说的,不亚于黑骑军的制式装备的话,那这个价格确实不算高。”„Good, thatfirstmakeshimsenda number ofsamples.”Colinrubbed the forehead, is somewhat worried, „, but can ourfamily'sfinances...... the presentbe able to withstandthisdisbursement?”
“好吧,那就先让他送来一批样品。”柯林揉了揉前额,有些苦恼,“但我们家族的财政……现在能够承受得起这笔支出么?”„Very difficult.”Eamonnsaidtruthfully.
“很难。”伊蒙如实说道。SeesColinto fall intothinks deeply, Eamonnalsourged: „Master, with all due respect, forms the cavalrynow, wassomeworries?”
见柯林陷入深思,伊蒙又劝道:“老爷,恕我直言,现在就组建骑兵,是不是有些太着急了?”Colinis silent.
柯林默然。HeunderstandsEamonnsaidis reasonable, oneselftrulysomewhatworried.
他明白伊蒙说的有道理,自己确实有些着急了。Ifon1-2 years, wait for the territoryto recover and develop, wait for the tax revenueto be abundant, perhapsform the cavalry more appropriateagain.
如果等上1-2,等领地恢复发展,等税收充裕起来,或许再组建骑兵才更合适。However, Colinactuallycould not wait is so long.
但是,柯林却等不了那么久。Heknowsfissure between DukeSt. Hilde and Marquis Garciahas produced.
他可是知道圣希尔德公爵和加西亚侯爵之间的裂痕已经产生。AlthoughMarquis Garcialooks likealsonosoundat present, as ifendured the betrayal of oneselfElder Brother.
虽然加西亚侯爵目前看来还没什么动静,似乎忍受了自己哥哥的背叛。Butwhoknowsnorthwhichday the boundaryto presentwhatcrisisagain, when the time comes, rides before black the armyalsomeet, twice is the same, standsthat sideDukeSt. Hildeoutspokenly?
但谁知道哪天北境再出现什么危机,到时候,黑骑军还会和之前两次一样,毫无保留地站在圣希尔德公爵那一边吗?Therefore, Colinfelt the deepcrisis.
所以,柯林感受到了深深的危机。Hemusthurryto developoneselfinfluence, the qualifications of so as to avoidwhen the time comescontinuallystanding in linedo not have, can only drift with the current, allows to be oppressed.
他必须赶紧发展自己的势力,免得到时候连站队的资格都没有,只能随波逐流,任人宰割。Thinks ofhere, Colinclenches teeth, ruthlesssound said.
想到这里,柯林一咬牙,狠声道。„Wecanlend!”
“我们可以借贷!”
