The dawn glimmer disclosed slowly from the East, bit by bit gently and ripped open to cover the darkness of land firmly. 晨曦的微光缓缓从东方透露出来,一点一点温柔而坚定地撕开笼罩着大地的黑暗。 The dim ray shines upon the cold frost that is well-grounded, is glittering the ice-cold ray. 朦朦胧胧的光线映照着地上的寒霜,闪烁着冰冷的光芒。 Late autumn early morning, has cold intent of cold winter. 深秋的凌晨,已经有了寒冬的冷意。 But as Sun raises gradually, the cold frost on vegetation melts perfectly round dewdrop, creakies. 但随着太阳渐渐升起,草木上的寒霜融成一颗颗滚圆的露珠,摇摇欲坠。 Suddenly, land slight shivering, all leaves of grass start to sway, the clear dewdrop tip crashes downward. 突然间,大地一阵轻微的颤抖,所有的草叶都开始摇晃起来,晶莹的露珠点点滴滴地往下坠落。 Trembling of land is getting more and more intense, to finally, the leave of grass also breaks off completely, falls gently reluctantly, is tracking down the footsteps of dewdrop, integrates the bosom of land. 大地的震颤越来越强烈,到最后,就连草叶也完全折断,无奈地飘落,追寻着露珠的脚步,融入大地的怀抱。 Treads...... 踏踏踏…… The probably billowing startling thunderclap blasted out the land, seems like great waves flood to come, in the land the sand and crushed stone of withered weeds and disruption is shaking dancing. 好像滚滚惊雷炸开了大地,又像是涛涛洪水汹涌而来,大地上干枯的野草和碎裂的砂石都震荡着跳起舞来。 The scar face that is preparing to walk into the mountain to chop firewood stupidly stands in the village, was frightened completely helplessly by this sound. 正准备进山砍柴的疤脸傻傻地站在村口,被这番动静吓得完全不知所措。 „Run! Run!” “快跑！快跑！” Was good awakened the scar face because of the shout of villagers, he turned around hastily, takes to one's heels to run toward the family/home. 好在村民的呼喊声惊醒了疤脸,他连忙转身,撒腿就往家里跑。 „Scar face! Comes back quickly!” “疤脸！快回来！” Saw that the grandfather stands in entrance towards oneself beckons, the scar face accelerates a sprint immediately. 看到爷爷就站在门口朝自己招手,疤脸立刻加速一个冲刺。 The young body erupts the astonishing speed, the cheetah entered in the room generally. 年轻的身躯爆发出惊人的速度,猎豹一般钻进了屋内。 The old person is busy at closing the front door, then told to the grandson: 老人忙将屋门关上,回头对孙子吩咐道: „If later some people came, doesn't permit to begin, hears?” “待会儿要是有人进来了,不准动手,听到没有？” The scar face still in the respite, hears word nods. 疤脸还在喘息,闻言只是愣愣地点了点头。 The sound outside room is getting bigger and bigger, trembling of ground is also getting more and more intense. 屋外的动静越来越大,地面的震颤也越来越强烈。 Under the obligation of curiosity, the scar face opens a slit the window, looks around outward. 好奇心的驱使下,疤脸将窗户打开一丝缝隙,向外张望。 Then, he saw the innumerable shadows appeared in the horizon place, capacity that the entire land filled, did not keep a slit. 然后,他就看到了无数的黑影出现在了地平线处,将整个大地都填的满满当当,不留一丝缝隙。 In the world the wind and cloud changes color, as if by that flag is also covered including morning sun that just cropped up. 天地间风云变色,连刚刚冒出头的朝阳仿佛也被那面旗帜所掩盖。 „Cavalry!” “骑兵！” The scar face calls out in alarm makes noise. 疤脸惊叫出声。 Right, outside truly is a cavalry. 没错,外面确实是骑兵。 The dense and numerous cavalries, move mountains. 密密麻麻的骑兵,排山倒海般而来。 „Right, is the cavalry, moreover is north the cavalry of boundary!” The old person said seriously. “没错,是骑兵,而且是北境的骑兵！”老人面色凝重地说道。 The scar face scratches the head, on the simple and honest ugly face full is puzzled, asked: „Grandfather, how will the cavalry of northern boundary present here?” 疤脸挠挠头,憨厚的丑脸上满是困惑,问道:“爷爷,北境的骑兵怎么会出现我们这儿？” „How many yesterday in the village didn't come military deserters who run from the alfalfa city? Listened to them saying that Count Angelie of northern boundary has led Blood Cavalry Army to cross river, originally I have not believed that but looking back now, this news should.” “昨天村里不是来了几个从苜蓿城跑回来的逃兵吗？听他们说北境的安格列伯爵已经率领血骑军过河了,本来我还不信,但现在看来,这个消息应该是真的了。” „East us the Pegasus sailors of boundary? How to make the northern boundary person cross river?” “我们东境的天马水军呢？怎么会让北境人过河？” „Probably the Pegasus sailors presented the rebellion, this makes the northern boundary have an opportunity.” “好像是天马水军内部出现了叛乱,这才让北境有机可乘。” „We what to do?” “那我们怎么办？” The old person sighed, the fold on face all pushes, helpless said: „What to do can also? Accepts fate! Only hopes that the northern boundary person looks in for the share of Empire People, do not do goes too far.” 老人叹息一声,脸上的褶皱全都挤到了一起,无奈道:“还能怎么办？认命吧！只希望北境人看在同为帝国子民的份上,不要做的太过分。” The grandson who looks at the complexion not indignation, the old person urged again: „Remember, if later some people rushed, what wants to let them with what, does not permit to block, got it?” 看着面色不忿的孙子,老人再次叮嘱道:“记住,待会儿如果有人闯进来了,要什么就让他们拿什么,不准拦着,明白了吗？” „Got it.” The scar face remains silent to say. “明白了。”疤脸闷声应道。 The hoofbeat outside room is getting more and more near, the scar face lies on the window, by lifting the slit, can see clearly that crash in the big tall horse in village, as well as on the horseback puts on the soldier of armor. 屋外的马蹄声越来越近,疤脸趴在窗台上,透过掀开的缝隙,能清楚地看到那一匹匹冲进村中的高头大马,以及马背上穿着铠甲的士兵。 In the vision of scar face except for panic-stricken, but also does not have facial expression that may suppress to reveal to envy. 疤脸的目光中除了惊恐,还无可抑制地流露出羡慕的神情。 Because is much longer vigorously and healthily, the villagers said that the scar face was the inborn soldier, scar face also had the thought of enlistment very much long time ago, but pitifully, the grandfather actually did not agree with the scar face enlistment. 由于长得高大健壮,村里人都说疤脸是天生的战士,疤脸自己也很早就有了参军的念头,但可惜,爷爷却一直不同意疤脸参军。 Because, his son, is the father of scar face, once was one of the Pegasus regiment, actually when last year followed marquis Vincent is expediting half elf kingdom, dies under the silver semi-circular protective wall outside the main city gate. 因为,他的儿子,也就是疤脸的父亲,曾是天马军团的一员,却在去年跟随着文森特侯爵远征半精灵王国的时候,死在了银月城下。 The father of scar face but before death the pride of this small village, the third-order soldier, the member of St. Plossi family direct descendant regiment, in such a small village, absolutely is „outstanding person phoenix” existence. 要知道,疤脸的父亲生前可是这个小村庄的骄傲,三阶战士,圣普洛斯家族嫡系军团的成员,在这样一个小村庄中,绝对是“人中龙凤”般的存在。 Even so, was says definitely dead. 但即便如此,也是说死就死了。 The brutality of war, making the elderly man have a lingering fear, said that anything is not willing to deliver the battlefield the grandson again. 战争的残酷,让老人家心有余悸,说什么也不愿再将孙子送上战场了。 Bang! 嘭！ The wooden door was trampled crudely, the soldiers of two devils walked. 木门被粗暴地踹开,两名凶神恶煞的士兵走了进来。 The scar face the grandfather will keep off in hastily behind, the vision looks at the soldier vigilantly. 疤脸连忙将爷爷挡在身后,目光警惕地看着士兵。 „Where is grain conceals at?” “粮食藏在哪？” The scar face gripped tightened the double fist, but actually felt that behind clothes held on by the grandfather stubbornly, therefore, he has to repress the anger in heart, referred to the corner direction. 疤脸攥紧了双拳,但却感觉到身后的衣服被爷爷死死拉住,于是,他只好按捺住心中的怒火,指了指墙角方向。 The soldiers walked, turns out the thing that wants from a worn-out wooden crate, then has not felt embarrassed this master grandson, immediately walks. 士兵走了过去,从一个破旧木箱中翻出想要的东西,然后也没有为难这爷孙俩,立刻又走了出去。 After they leave, the scar face rushes to the corner, flips the wooden crate, on the gloomy face hung up some pleasant surprises immediately, said: 他们离开后,疤脸冲到墙角,翻了翻木箱,阴郁的脸上顿时挂上了一些惊喜,道: „Grandfather, they gave back to us to keep half unexpectedly!” “爷爷,他们竟然还给我们留了一半！” „Yeah, some it seems like northern boundary person also consciences, remaining we save the point to eat, should be able to endure this winter......” “哎,看来北境人还有些良心,剩下的我们省着点吃,应该能熬过这个冬天……” The words have not said, the entrance presented a form again. 话还没说完,门口再次出现了一个身影。 His whole body covers in the bright red armor, only reveals a 20 ct. subsidiary coins untender eye. 他全身笼罩在鲜红色的铠甲中,只露出一双毫无感情的眼睛。 In scar face heart one anxious, said hastily: „You have come one time! What remaining is I and grandfather......” 疤脸心中一急,连忙道:“你们已经来过一次了！剩下的是我和爷爷……” „Scar face!” Grandfather anxious gives the grandson to signal with the eyes unceasingly, for fear that he makes the foolish matter. “疤脸！”爷爷急的不断给孙子使眼色,生怕他做傻事。 The scar face must shut up, but the body still keeps off before the wooden crate, has not moved out of the way. 疤脸只得闭嘴,只是身体依然挡在木箱前,没有挪开。 The meaning of but entrance armor person actually, but sees the master grandson two people, probably silly was the same. 但门口的铠甲人却并没有进来的意思,只是怔怔地看着爷孙两人,像是傻了一样。 The scar face also straightens one's neck with the armor person looks at each other, but with the lapse of time, in his eye vigilant actually dissipates slowly, instead has doubts- is this person of look somewhat familiar? 疤脸也梗着脖子与铠甲人对视,但随着时间的推移,他眼中的警惕却慢慢消散,反而生出一丝疑惑-这人的眼神怎么有些熟悉？ The grandfather also saw the atmosphere right, does not make noise to ask carefully: „This Sir, what you have to need to help?” 爷爷也看出了气氛的不对劲,小心地出声问道:“这位大人,您有什么需要帮忙的吗？” The armor person then awakens, anything had not said, only throws down one bag of grain, then turned around to walk. 铠甲人这才惊醒过来,却什么也没有说,只丢下一袋粮食,然后转身就走了。 Stays behind master grandson of looking at each other in blank dismay. 留下面面相觑的爷孙俩。 The village, Colin in horse stands, is looking out Blood Slave that walks from scar face, is lost in thought. 村口,柯林驻马而立,遥望着从疤脸家走出来的血奴,陷入沉思。 This Blood Slave once was a third-order soldier in Pegasus regiment, Colin does not know that his name and passing, but looking back now, it is estimated that walk from this village. 这个血奴曾经是天马军团中的一名三阶战士,柯林不知道他的名字和过往,但现在看来,估计是从这个村庄走出来的。 But he presented that unusual action a moment ago, should see the family member. 而刚才他之所以出现那种反常的举动,应该是见到了亲人。 Colin has thought Blood Slave does not have the self-awareness thoroughly, but looking back now, perhaps not necessarily so. 柯林一直以为血奴是彻底没有自我意识的,但现在看来,恐怕未必如此。 Naturally, this surviving consciousness is not strong, will not affect Colin to their controls. 当然,这种残存意识并不强烈,不会影响柯林对他们的操控。 On for example now, under Colin's order, that Blood Slave returns to the scar face home, that bag of grain that oneself will leave behind a moment ago took. 就比如现在,在柯林的命令下,那名血奴又返回疤脸家,将自己刚才留下的那袋粮食重新取走了。 This actually gives Colin to remind- 这却给柯林提了个醒- If even Blood Slave can pity about once family member , had self-awareness Blood Descendant? 如果连血奴都能对曾经的亲人心生怜悯,那么,本就具有自我意识的血裔呢？ Before the swan city, Colin forced Blood Descendant Count Schultz betrayed husband Lucien the time, wants to have a look at Blood Descendant in the situation of conflicts of interest, can violate his order. 之前在天鹅城,柯林强迫血裔舒尔茨伯爵背叛自己丈夫路西恩的时候,就是想看看血裔在利益冲突的情况下,会不会违背他的命令。 However, that experiment, although succeeded, but Colin felt, Count Schultz may also be knows Blood Cavalry Army on conceals outside city, understands that is unable to resist with him, then sold oneself husband simply. 不过,那次的实验虽然成功了,但柯林却觉得,舒尔茨伯爵也有可能是知道血骑军就藏在城外,明白无法与他对抗,便干脆卖了自己丈夫。 If then, Blood Descendant discovered that has the means to resist Colin, even there is an opportunity to get rid Colin controls, he will also continue to violate oneself interests, obeys Colin's order? 那么,如果血裔发现有办法对抗柯林,甚至有机会摆脱柯林掌控的时候,他还会继续违背自己的利益,服从柯林的命令吗？ Thinks of here, Colin felt suddenly, the tour of this east boundary, marquis Vincent this Blood Descendant, should be able to him a clear answer...... 想到这里,柯林忽然觉得,这次东境之行,文森特侯爵这名血裔,应该能够给他一个明确的答案……
