The genial dawn by the treetop, leaves behind the motley light shadow on the lawn gently. 和煦的晨光温柔地透过树梢,在草地上留下斑驳的光影。 In the clear warbling, Lawrence wakes. 清脆的鸟鸣声中,劳伦斯醒了过来。 Crawls since the ground, he looks around immediately, until seeing not far away that covers the thin form in Wizard robe, finally felt relieved. 从地上爬起后,他立刻四下张望,直到看到不远处那个笼罩在法师袍中的瘦削身影,才终于放下心来。 Lawrence walked, asked in a soft voice: „Good morning, father.” 劳伦斯走了过去,轻声问道:“早安,父亲。” Mr. Wizard has not turned head, but is recording anything wholly absorbed. 觋先生没有回头,只是专心致志地在记录着什么。 Lawrence somewhat is slightly awkward, but does not dare excessively to disturb, then draws back softly, prepares to look for some prey to treat as the breakfast. 劳伦斯略有些尴尬,但也不敢过多打扰,便轻手轻脚地退开,准备去找些猎物当作早餐。 The morning between forests, the air is especially fresh, on the leaf also remains a dew. 林间的早晨,空气格外清新,树叶上还残留着点点露水。 Lawrence found the trace that several hares left, immediately pursued. 劳伦斯找到了几只野兔留下的痕迹,当即追了上去。 But without walking far, he noticed that one frightened birds kick the wing to jump out from the forests. 但没走多远,他就看到一群受惊的飞鸟扑腾着翅膀从林间窜出。 Some people came! 有人来了！ Lawrence the taking to one's heels round trip runs immediately. 劳伦斯立刻撒腿往回跑。 Waits to see the Mr. Wizard form again, he shouts immediately greatly: „Father! Some people came! Perhaps is the Uman family's pursuing troops!” 等再次看到觋先生的身影,他当即大喊道:“父亲！有人来了！恐怕是乌曼家族的追兵！” Mr. Wizard does not seem to heard behind shouting, writes to draw in the sheepskin volume as before. 觋先生仿佛没有听到身后的呼喊,依旧在羊皮卷上写写画画。 Lawrence runs up to nearby Mr. Wizard, makes noise again the reminder, but Mr. Wizard does not have the sound. 劳伦斯跑到觋先生跟前,再次出声提醒,但觋先生却还是没有动静。 Then Lawrence grasped blindly, did not know what to do, in all around shrubbery rustle sound, quick, teams of fully-armed soldiers encircled them. 这下劳伦斯抓瞎了,正不知如何是好的时候,四周的灌木丛中簌簌响动,很快,一队队全副武装的士兵就将他们团团围住。 The Lawrence double hand-held sword, looks around tight, but Mr. Wizard actually still writes the thing earnestly, as if all have nothing to do with him. 劳伦斯双手持剑,紧张地四下张望,而觋先生却仍然埋头写着东西,仿佛外界的一切都跟他无关。 After the surrounding soldier suspends the formation, has not actually gone forward. 周围的士兵摆好阵型之后却没有上前。 Lawrence is having doubts, sees a knight more numerous. 劳伦斯正疑惑间,就看到一名骑士越众而出。 He turns over/stands up dismount, takes the helmet, reveals a wooden face- 他翻身下马,取掉头盔,露出一张毫无表情的脸- Count Uman! 正是乌曼伯爵！ In Lawrence heart thump, did not shout secretly well. 劳伦斯心中咯噔一下,暗叫不好。 The appearance of Count Uman, showed that army in, this also means that perhaps they could not escape. 乌曼伯爵的出现,说明大军就在附近,这也意味着他们恐怕插翅难逃了。 Even if Mr. Wizard is powerful six step Wizard, but is impossible to escape to obtain surrounding of over ten thousand armies. 就算觋先生是强大的六阶法师,但也不可能逃得出上万大军的围堵。 In the Lawrence desperate look, Count Uman, walks slowly toward them. 在劳伦斯绝望的眼神中,乌曼伯爵独自一人,缓缓向他们走来。 Mr. Wizard eventually ended writing at this time, receives at a moderate pace the sheepskin volume, stands up. 觋先生这时终于结束了书写,不紧不慢地将羊皮卷收好,站起身来。 Happen, Count Uman also arrived nearby. 正好,乌曼伯爵也走到了跟前。 Lawrence holds both hands of sword cannot help but to shiver, he wants to open the mouth to greet, but actually does not know how should call Count Uman. 劳伦斯持剑的双手不由自主地颤抖起来,他本想开口打招呼,但却不知道该怎么称呼乌曼伯爵。 Count Uman simply has not actually looked straight at to look oneself once „son”, but said to Mr. Wizard: „St. Theon Family treats the ally like this?” 乌曼伯爵却根本没有正眼去看自己曾经的“儿子”,而是对觋先生说道:“圣席恩家族就是这样对待盟友的吗？” Mr. Wizard referred to own left eye, said unemotionally: „Kills a Saint knight, how possibly not to pay the price, Eagle Descent City is your price, but I also paid my price.” 觋先生指了指自己的左眼,面无表情地说道:“杀死一位圣骑士,怎么可能不付出代价,坠鹰城是你的代价,而我也付出了我的代价。” Count Uman sneers, disdains saying: „A left eye and a city, Mr. Wizard, you feel such payout, fair?” 乌曼伯爵冷笑一声,不屑道:“一颗左眼和一座城市,觋先生,您觉得这样的付出,公平吗？” „Is truly unfair.” Mr. Wizard said lightly, „you also want anything to compensate, can speak frankly.” “确实不公平。”觋先生淡淡地说道,“你还想要什么补偿,可以直说。” „Compensation?” Count Uman the face meaning on ridicule is even more rich, „on by me is butchered to the stupid woman who I wrote the bounced check, do not forget, oneself were also not north the lord of boundary, therefore do not want to compensate me with your nothing!” “补偿？”乌曼伯爵脸上的讥讽之意愈发浓郁,“上一个给我写空头支票的蠢女人已经被我宰了,你也别忘了,自己还不是北境之主,所以别想拿你没有的东西补偿我！” Mr. Wizard when hears „stupid woman” the vision to flash, as if understood oneself younger sister Penny's fate, but he also has nothing said, but is the look asks lightly: „, Said that I something, what you do want now?” 觋先生在听到“蠢女人”的时候目光微闪,似乎明白了自己妹妹潘妮的下场,但他也没有任何表示,而是神色平淡地问道:“那么,就说我现在有的东西,你想要什么？” Count Uman in the eye full is the tyrannical color, exclaimed lowly: „I want you to give the Eagle Descent City 300,000 people to pay with a life, are you willing?” 乌曼伯爵眼中满是暴虐之色,低吼道:“我要你给坠鹰城的三十万子民偿命,你肯吗？” Mr. Wizard shakes the head faintly: „You kill me now, will not have any help to the Uman family's situation, instead cut off own last ray of hope.” 觋先生淡漠地摇摇头:“你现在杀了我,不会对乌曼家族的处境有任何帮助,反而断绝了自己的最后一线希望。” Count Uman this time has not refuted, obviously he also agrees with the viewpoint of Mr. Wizard. 乌曼伯爵这次没有反驳,显然他也同意觋先生的这个观点。 He needs Mr. Wizard to live. 他需要觋先生活着。 But Count Uman the anger in eye actually may not suppress even more exuberantly, almost gushes out. 但乌曼伯爵眼中的怒火却不可抑制地愈发旺盛,几乎喷薄而出。 Lawrence shrinks like the quail between two big shot, reduces own existence feeling diligently, but obviously, his effort is somewhat unproductive, because he heard about oneself name- 劳伦斯像个鹌鹑一样缩在两位大佬中间,努力降低自己的存在感,但显然,他的努力有些徒劳,因为他听到了关于自己的名字- „Good, lets your son Lawrence, pays with a life for Eagle Descent City for you!” “那好,就让你的儿子劳伦斯,替你为坠鹰城偿命！” „Good.” “好。” Heard Count Uman request, Mr. Wizard has not agreed slightly hesitant. 听到乌曼伯爵的要求,觋先生没有丝毫犹豫地同意了。 As if the opposite party wants to kill, not own biological son, but conveniently a pet dog of adoption. 仿佛对方想要杀死的,并不是自己的亲生儿子,而是随手领养的一只宠物狗。 „What?” Lawrence looks at dumbly at the scene, does not seem to be able to believe that own destiny this was easily decided. “什么？”劳伦斯呆立当场,似乎不敢相信自己的命运就这样轻易地被决定了。 He cannot control the whole body to shiver, was hoarse the throat to call out: „Father, father!” 他控制不住地全身颤抖起来,沙哑着喉咙叫道:“父,父亲！” What a pity, his father Mr. Wizard simply has not managed him. 可惜,他的亲生父亲觋先生根本没理他。 But his nominal father, Count Uman, has gone forward at this time one step, pulled his hair single-handedly. 而他名义上的父亲,乌曼伯爵,此时已经上前一步,一手揪住了他的头发。 „Father!” Lawrence looks at Count Uman with the vision of hope. “父亲！”劳伦斯用祈求的目光看着乌曼伯爵。 Whom this time he could not have attended to front two people should call the father, so long as in any case who can rescue his life, he called who father. 此时的他已经顾不上面前的两人到底该叫谁父亲了,反正只要谁能救他一命,他就叫谁父亲。 Even both called also good...... 甚至两个都叫也行啊…… - 唰- The silver light flash, Lawrence's head had been sheared together. 一道银光闪过,劳伦斯的头颅就被割了下来。 The blood of spewing out splashed instantaneously Mr. Wizard. 喷涌而出的鲜血瞬间溅了觋先生一身。 Count Uman mentioned in front of Lawrence's head Mr. Wizard intentionally, cold sound said: „This is only the interest.” 乌曼伯爵故意将劳伦斯的头颅提到觋先生面前,冷声道:“这只是利息。” Mr. Wizard is looking straight ahead Lawrence's head unemotionally, does not have any movement. 觋先生面无表情地直视着劳伦斯的头颅,没有任何动作。 Count Uman as if vents anger finally, is raising the head of drop blood, swaggers away. 乌曼伯爵似乎终于出了气,提着滴血的头颅,扬长而去。 When the surrounding soldier all diverges, Mr. Wizard puts out sheepskin volume again , to continue to write to draw. 等到周围的士兵全部散去,觋先生才再次拿出身上的羊皮卷,继续写写画画。 Lawrence's headless body pours before his foot like this, crossflow blood quick incarnadine big piece lawn. 劳伦斯的无头尸体就这样倒在他的脚边,横流的鲜血很快染红了大片草地。 The surrounding air congealed suddenly frost, the temperature does not have the indication to drop more than ten degrees, as if the cold winter covered the land. 周围的空气突然凝结出点点冰霜,温度毫无征兆地下降了十几度,仿佛寒冬重新笼罩了大地。 „Don't you give the son to receive a corpse?” White robe Wizard Cusius appears side Mr. Wizard towering, teased. “你都不给儿子收个尸？”白袍法师库休斯突兀地出现在觋先生身旁,调侃道。 Mr. Wizard raised the head, without reply issue, but looks the good friend full head white hair and whole body cannot control the dissipation the cold air to knit the brows: „How do you make such distressedly?” 觋先生抬起头来,没有回答刚才的问题,而是看着好友满头的白发和周身控制不住散逸的寒气皱了皱眉:“你怎么弄得这么狼狈？” Cusius sighed, in the look flashed through alarmed and afraid: „Met Ernest , you said how this old fogy was bent on having to oppose with us? He could not see the thing that we study can make Wizard Council take the road of rise truly?” 库休斯叹了口气,眼神中闪过一丝惊惧:“遇上欧内斯特了,咳咳,你说这个老家伙怎么就偏要跟我们作对？他难道看不出我们研究出来的东西能够让法师议会真正走上崛起之路吗？” Mr. Wizard sneers saying: „He is worried that oneself position was challenged.” 觋先生冷笑道:“他不过是担心自己的地位受到挑战罢了。” „Hehe, shortsighted old thing!” Cusius cursed one, later then has doubts saying that „, but, how does this old thing know our plans? Also just appeared at this time in Eagle Descent City?” “呵呵,目光短浅的老东西！”库休斯咒骂了一声,随后便又疑惑道,“但是,这个老东西是怎么知道我们的计划的？还刚好在这个时候出现在坠鹰城？” „Should be Rinehart Great Emperor informs Ernest.” “应该是莱因哈特大帝通知欧内斯特的。” „Rinehart Great Emperor? Why he......” Cusius told only half, stopped. “莱因哈特大帝？他为什么……”库休斯说到一半,就停止了。 Because, he has guessed correctly the reason that Rinehart Great Emperor has done that. 因为,他已经猜出了莱因哈特大帝这么做的原因。 Obviously, Rinehart Great Emperor has to dread about Mr. Wizard, was worried he will coerce himself with this casting a spell, since has validated the feasibility of casting a spell, obtained scroll of casting a spell, that Mr. Wizard naturally died is quite good. 显然,莱因哈特大帝是对觋先生心存忌惮,担心他会用这个禁咒要挟自己,既然已经验证了禁咒的可行性,又得到了禁咒的施法卷轴,那觋先生自然还是死掉比较好。 „Perhaps in this case, just started in view of our assassinations.” The Cusius complexion is somewhat cloudy. “这样的话,针对我们的刺杀恐怕才刚刚开始。”库休斯的脸色有些阴沉。 Mr. Wizard actually shakes the head: „No, Rinehart will only suggest Ernest, even Prince Reich begins to us, he himself will not send people to kill our.” 觋先生却摇摇头:“不,莱因哈特只会暗示欧内斯特,甚至莱希亲王对我们动手,他自己是不会派人杀我们的。” „Do you believe him? What thing did he pledge your?” “你就这么信他？还是他承诺了你什么东西？” Mr. Wizard had not replied that Cusius issue, still concentrates on oneself front sheepskin volume. 觋先生却没有回答库休斯的问题,依然专注于自己面前的羊皮卷。 Cusius sees that understands that the opposite party does not want to say that also has to scratch the head reluctantly, later shifts the topic: „Count Uman what to do? Do you make him shame you like this?” 库休斯见状,明白对方不想说,也只好无奈地挠挠头,随后又转移话题道:“乌曼伯爵怎么办？你就让他这样羞辱你？” The hand that Mr. Wizard takes pen in hand, said in a soft voice: „Two St. Theon Family descendants' heads, enough have made him win others' trust in the St. Hilde family.” 觋先生提笔的手顿了顿,轻声道:“两颗圣席恩家族后裔的头颅,已经足够让他取信于圣希尔德家族了。” Cusius thinks, as if understands the meaning of Mr. Wizard, hesitates saying: „ You destroyed Eagle Descent City, the homicide your younger sister and your son, un, the person who as the matter stands truly can let the St. Hilde family thinks that you have broken off. 库休斯想了想,似乎明白了觋先生的意思,沉吟道:“你毁了坠鹰城,他杀了你妹妹和你儿子,恩,这样一来确实可以让圣希尔德家族的人认为你们已经决裂。 However, in such situation, can you also continue to trust this person? 但是,难道这样的情况下,你还能继续信任这个人？ Will Count Uman also continue to trust you? ” 乌曼伯爵难道还会继续信任你？” Mr. Wizard shakes the head: „ Trusts this word, is too luxurious. I believe, Count Uman will make most benefits his own choice. But this choice, will help me. 觋先生摇摇头:“信任这个词,太奢侈。我只是认为,乌曼伯爵会做出最有利于他自己的选择。而这个选择,也会对我有帮助。 Therefore, I will allow that he takes Penny and Lawrence's head. ” 所以,我才会容许他取走潘妮和劳伦斯的头颅。” „What do you mean?” Cusius obviously somewhat could not keep up with the Mr. Wizard mentality. “什么意思？”库休斯明显有些跟不上觋先生的思路了。 „ After Duke St. Hilde dies, is most likely to inherit the position of duke, actually on remaining Vera and Joyce, Count Uman is impossible to support Vera, because he has a grudge with Viscount Angelie. “圣希尔德公爵死后,最有可能继承公爵之位的,其实就剩下薇拉和乔伊斯两人,乌曼伯爵不可能支持薇拉的,因为他跟安格列子爵有仇。 Therefore, he will definitely stand Joyce. 所以,他必然会站在乔伊斯这边。 But one of the I then main goals, is the Angelie family. 而我接下来最主要的目标之一,也是安格列家族。 Therefore, no matter how Count Uman hates me, can be my natural ally. ” 因此,不管乌曼伯爵怎么恨我,也会是我的天然盟友。” At this point, on the face of Mr. Wizard also appears, helpless color: „Originally I have a better arrangement to Count Uman, but now, because of the reckless moves of two idiots...... can only like this.” 说到这里,觋先生的脸上也浮现出无奈之色:“本来我对乌曼伯爵还有更好的安排,但现在,因为两个蠢货的鲁莽行动……就只能这样了。” Cusius hehe smiles, suddenly plays the flavor: „Said, Vera initially in Yeville was my student, wanted me to help you select busily?” 库休斯呵呵一笑,忽然玩味道:“说起来,薇拉当初在耶维尔还是我的学生,要不要我帮你点忙？” Mr. Wizard vision, looked at Cusius earnestly long time, until looks at the whole body is not comfortable the opposite party, finally the nod said: 觋先生目光一顿,认真地看了库休斯半晌,直到将对方看得浑身不自在,才终于点头道: „Good, you can try. However, I must remind you, Viscount Angelie this person, is not good to cope.” “好,你可以去试一试。不过,我要提醒你,安格列子爵这个人,不好对付。” „Relax, I have the discretion.” “放心吧,我有分寸。”
