拿着公牛守卫那颗血淋淋的脑袋,罗德大声怒吼着。剩下的野兽人立马化作鸟兽,纷纷逃窜。但是包围网已经形成,“狩猎队”不会放过任何一头野兽人,罗德的目标是彻底净化黑暗森林,将这一带的野兽人赶尽杀绝。Beastman that runs awayfrighteneddiedunder the Norscanaxe and long sword, the thicksmell of bloodattractedlarge quantities ofcrows and spoiledfoodlifeform.
一个个受惊逃窜的野兽人死在了诺斯卡人的斧头和长剑下,浓浓的血腥味吸引了大批乌鸦和腐食生物。Afterslaughteredfor quite a whilehappily, the peopleassembleunderevilHerdstone, overthrewitwith the crudeway. According to the Dwarfwords, bestshiverit, toavoidBeastman of otherplacesarriving here accumulationfrom now onagain. ThereforeRodordersUnitto pitch campsame place, completelycrushesitwith the shortesttime.
在痛痛快快的屠杀了半天之后,众人围聚在邪恶的万魔岩下,用粗暴的方式推倒了它。按照矮人的话来说,最好将它敲碎,以避免今后其他地方的野兽人再来到此处聚集。于是罗德命令部队在原地扎营,用最短的时间将它彻底粉碎。
The words saying that eachfightvictorywill have the richspoils of warfrom now on, however, to the fight of Beastmanobviouslyis notthis, thisgroup of poor devilanythingdo not have, whataroundHerdstoneare mostis the remains of varioushumanandanimal. Thesebonespilelike the trasharoundthisbigstonegenerally, foroffering sacrificesgod of Beastmanbelief. Ifmustdiscoverwhatspoils of warfromBeastman, thattatteredarmor that perhapsonly thenonthemwears. Thesearmorsizesare mostly huge, generallyhumancould not put on, does not know where thisgroup of Beastmanplundered.
话说每场战斗胜利过后都会有丰厚的战利品,然而,对野兽人的战斗显然不是这样的,这帮穷鬼什么都没有,万魔岩周围最多的是各种人类和动物的遗骨。这些骨头就像垃圾一般堆在这块大石头周围,用于献祭野兽人信仰的神。如果一定要从野兽人身上找出什么战利品,恐怕只有他们身上穿的那种破烂盔甲了。这些盔甲大多尺寸巨大,一般人类根本穿不了,也不知道这帮野兽人从哪里掠夺到的。Rodorderseveryoneto peel the armor on corpse, dragsto the Blackhammer Fortmarket, sells outas the scrap iron.罗德命令大伙将尸体上的盔甲都剥下来,拖到黑锤堡市场,作为废铁卖掉。However, at that night, exterminates the Harpyhuntingsquadthento have the pleasantly surpriseddiscovery. Sartbringscoming back that onegroup of NorscaMarauderare wild with joy, reportedthemtoRoddiscovery——a large number ofjewelry and silver jewelriesinHarpylair. ThismakesRodwondervery much, Harpyis not a species of greedygold, silver, and jewelry, theyare only interestedin the freshflesh, all that doesalsotohunt, killsalllivinghuman and domestic animal, swallowstheirflesh. Such will a species of bloodthirsty, whyhave the wealthintheirlairs?
然而,当天夜里,去剿灭鹰身女妖的狩猎小队便有了惊喜发现。塞尔塔带着一帮诺斯卡掠夺者欣喜若狂的回来,向罗德汇报了他们在鹰身女妖巢穴里的发现——数量众多的珠宝和金银首饰。这让罗德很纳闷,鹰身女妖原本并不是一个贪婪金银珠宝的物种,她们只对新鲜的血肉感兴趣,所做的一切也是为了捕猎,杀死一切活着的人类和家畜,吞食他们的血肉。这样一个嗜血的物种,在他们的巢穴里为什么会有金银财宝?
When Rodrushes to the femalemonsterlairknows, originally, thesejewelry and silver jewelriesarehumanornament, someare the gemrings, someare the goldensilver of embedonclothes, but alsosomehang, in the gold chain of waistandhangs the gemnecklaceonneck.
而当罗德赶到女妖巢穴时才知道,原来,这些珠宝和金银首饰不过是人类身上的装饰物,有些是宝石戒指,有些是镶嵌在衣服上的黄金白银,还有的是挂在腰间的金链子和挂在脖子上的宝石项链。Therefore, Rodthenunderstoodat the scene, thesethingsindeedare notHarpyplunderintentionally, butis the prey that theyholdthing, again after humanswallow alive, thesegold , silver and jewelriesare unable to swallow, thenabandonsthemin the lair , like the bone, throwsin the lairat will, gradually, thengatheredmanygold , silver and jewelries.
于是,罗德当场便明白了,这些东西的确不是鹰身女妖故意掠夺来的,而是她们抓住的猎物(人)身上的东西,再将人类生吞之后,这些金银珠宝无法吞食,便将它们遗弃在巢穴里,就跟骨头一样,随意扔在巢穴里,久而久之,便聚集了不少金银珠宝。RegardingHarpy, thesesparklingthings are like the densewhite bones, do not have the value, butregardingRod, is actually oneflies the unexpected wealth. Herewardedat the scenetwoNorscasoldiers who reportthisinformation, because ofwithoutthem, oneselfdo not know that hassuch a concealedtreasureplace, so long as the greedyheartcauses trouble, exceedsfeartoLord, then, thisgroup of Norscan can definitely not telloneself, oneselfis so impossibleto know that sweeps the Harpylairalsoto havesuchunexpected benefit. However, theytoldoneselffinally, oneselfthenmustrewardthem, rewardstheirloyalty and honesty.
对于鹰身女妖来说,这些闪闪发光的东西和森森白骨一样,毫无价值,但是对于罗德来说,却是一笔飞来横财。他当场奖励了汇报这一情报的两名诺斯卡战士,因为没有他们,自己根本不知道有这样一个藏宝的地方,只要贪婪心作祟,胜过对领主的畏惧,那么,这帮诺斯卡人完全可以不告诉自己,那样,自己就不可能知道扫荡鹰身女妖巢穴还有这样的意外收获。然而,他们最终告诉了自己,自己便必须奖励他们,奖励他们的忠诚和诚实。Cansee that attainson the Norscasoldierface of rewardto display the pleasant surprise, perhapstheyhave not thought that will telloneselfLordalsoto obtain the sogenerousrewardthisnews. Rodwill put in order the lair10%valuables and moneyto apportionthattworeportNorscaMarauder, rewardedSartone. Puts out10%rewardsurplusNorscawarriorsagain, rewardsthemnot to misappropriatethisburied treasurein private, rewardsthem the heroicperformanceinfight.
可以看到拿到奖励的诺斯卡战士脸上表现着惊喜,他们或许没有想到将这个消息告诉自己的领主还会得到如此丰厚的报酬。罗德将整座巢穴百分之十的财宝分给了那两名汇报情况的诺斯卡掠夺者,同时也奖励了塞尔塔一份。再拿出百分之十奖励剩余的诺斯卡勇士们,奖励他们没有私下私吞这笔宝藏,也奖励他们在战斗中的英勇表现。Hadthisunexpected fortune, Rodknows,many thingscancomplete, for example the extension of mine tunnel, construction of TorTemple, the restoration of townwharfwait/etc. Fund, regardingoneself of present stage, lacksvery much.
有了这笔意外之财,罗德知道,很多事就可以完成了,例如矿洞的扩建,托尔神殿的兴建,还有城镇码头的修缮等等。资金,对于现阶段的自己来说,还是很缺的。Butnow, the foresthas sweptthoroughly, Rodknows, whenbeginning of the springtime, the loggingteamthencanfeel relieved that enteredthisforestcollectiontimber resources. Moreover, withoutBeastman, otheranimalquantities in forestwill be inevitably more, the huntingwill be so easier, the furincomewill also increasecorrespondingly. A campaign, solved the nextat leasttenyears of problems of development, thisveryvalue......
而现在,森林已经彻底扫荡完毕,罗德知道,等到开春的时候,伐木队便可以放心进入这片森林采集木材资源了。而且,没有野兽人,森林中的其他动物数量势必会更多,那样,狩猎将更加容易,毛皮收益也将相应增多。一场战役,解决了今后至少十年的发展问题,这很值……

……Blackhammer Fort.黑锤堡。„Your excellency, Ihave a matter to askyou, youmusttellmetruthfully.”
“阁下,我有件事要问你,你必须如实告诉我。”InBlackhammer Fort, in Rodleadsonegroup of little brothersto sweep the forest, newpartner——KislevaristocratLahmfoundStewardMurros, seriousis askinghim. AlthoughMurrosdoes not know that hewantsto askanything, butfrom the opposite partyseriousexpression, it is estimated thatis not the good deed.黑锤堡内,就在罗德带领着一帮小弟扫荡森林时,新来的合作伙伴——基斯里夫贵族拉海姆找到了管家穆罗斯,一脸严肃的问着他。穆罗斯虽然不知道他想问什么,但是从对方严肃的表情来看,估计不是什么好事。„Youasked that so long asIknow that Iconsider certainlytruthfully.”
“你问吧,只要我知道的,我一定如实相告。”Murrosansweredearnestly.穆罗斯认真答到。„Does thiscastleoftenhave the war?”
“这座城堡是不是经常有战事?”
The Lahmexpressionissoserious, seemed interrogating that a criminalis common, butMurrosis not a criminal. OldStewardis staring athim, earnestreply——拉海姆表情是如此严肃,仿佛在质问一个犯人一般,但是穆罗斯不是犯人。老管家盯着他,认真的回答——„It is not veryfrequently, in fact, every year during only thenEvil Moonapproaches, thiscastlewill face a war, othertimes, do not have the enemyto appear.”
“不是很经常,事实上,每年只有邪月来临期间,这座城堡会面对一场大战,其他时候,都不怎么有敌人出现。”„WhenEvil MoonapproachesBlackhammer Fort is in very dangeroussituation, not?”
“但是邪月来临之际黑锤堡便处于十分危险的地步,不是吗?”Lahmis pressing hard onasking.拉海姆紧逼着问到。„Cannotsaylike this, youalsosaw, Lord Rodhas assigned the personto build up the outer city wall, in the meantime, Blackhammer Forthasseveral hundredwell-trainedsoldiersandsoldiers. Even ifEvil Moonarrives, we can still verygooddefending.”
“也不能这样说吧,你也看到了,罗德领主已经命人建起了外城城墙,同时,黑锤堡拥有几百名训练有素的士兵、战士。就算邪月降临,我们也能很好的守住。”„ButEvil Moonhas almost not defendedthis year!”
“但是今年邪月差点没守住!”Lahmis interrogatingloudly, thistime, reallyinterrogated. Becausein the war of Evil Moon, healsoat the scene, looks atBeastmanalmostattackedto enter a city, finallykept offbyRod. Such a dangerousplace not suitablehousing , not suitableinvestment. Lahmstartsto regretat heart,initiallyoneselfshouldinspectto decideagainmustmine the gulfminewithRod, thishigh-qualityminefor a long timehad not definitely had the reasonby the depthexcavation.拉海姆大声质问着,这次,是真的质问。因为邪月之战里,他也在现场,看着野兽人差点攻进城了,最后被罗德挡了回去。这样一个危险的地方不适合居住,同时也不适合投资。拉海姆心里开始后悔,当初自己应该多考察一下再决定要不要和罗德一起开采深坑矿场的,这座优质矿场之所以那么长时间没有被深度挖掘肯定是有原因的。Butitsreasonis the threat of Beastmanhas never eliminated.
而它的原因就是野兽人的威胁从未消除过。„Butitdefended, andBeastmancannot evenentersmall townonestep, youpossiblydo not know, Sir, last yearthis time, Blackhammer Fortdid not have the barbican wall, the residents in small townwere the transient population, theyleft the small townbefore winter, went to the southernavoidancecold winter, avoidedBeastman, returned tohereto work by the spring of next yearagain. Issmall town that seems likecannot developabsolutely. HoweverLord Rodchangedall these, heachievesthing that otherscould not achieve, henot onlybuilt up the firmcity wallinshortsix months, but alsoexpanded the population of garrison, goes northwith the Dwarftrade, obtains the firearm of Empireblockade, all these, completeinthis year, thisenablesBlackhammer Fortto be insufficientto become a bleaknorthernsmall town. Moreover, Ialsobelieve,in the futureherewill be getting more and more safe, the populationwill be getting more and more.”
“但是它还是守住了,并且野兽人甚至没能走进小镇一步,您可能不知道,大人,去年的这个时候,黑锤堡连外城墙都没有,小镇的居民不过是流动人口,他们在冬天到来前离开小镇,前往南方躲避寒冬,躲避野兽人,到了来年春天再返回这里工作。是一座看起来绝对发展不起来的小镇。但是罗德领主改变了这一切,他做到了别人做不到的事,他不仅在短短半年内建起了坚固的城墙,还扩充了守备队的人数,北上和矮人贸易,取得帝国封锁的火器,这一切,都是在这一年内完成的,这才使得黑锤堡不至于成为一座荒凉的北方小镇。而且,我也相信,将来这里会越来越安全,人口会越来越多。”Facingpartner'squestion, Murrosis replyingneither arrogant nor servile, heuses the factto speak, matterone by onewill displayover the past year, makingLahmsee the change of entireBlackhammer Fort, as well asfuturehope.
面对合作伙伴的质疑,穆罗斯不卑不亢的回答着,他用事实说话,将过去一年发生的事一一罗列出来,让拉海姆看到整个黑锤堡的变化,以及未来的希望。„The Beastmanquantityisrelativelyfixed, butwewill be only getting more and more powerful, so long as the minejoint exploitationis smooth, has the adequatefund, wethencanpurchasemoreweapons, recruitsmoresoldiers, such, the threat of Beastmanwill disappearslowly. Not? Let aloneLord Rodheleads the personto go to the forestto exterminateremainingBeastman, Ibelieveseveraldayslaterhewill have the news of victoryto come back, at that time, thendid not have the prestige of so-calledEvil Moon.”
“野兽人的数量是相对固定的,而我们只会越来越强大,只要矿场合作开发顺利,有足够的资金,我们便可以采购更多的武器,征召更多的士兵,那样,野兽人的威胁就会慢慢消失。不是吗?更何况罗德领主他已经带人去森林里剿灭剩下的野兽人了,我相信几天后他就会带着胜利的消息回来,那时候,便没有所谓的邪月之威了。”Murrosthenspoke. Has saying that hiswords are very convincing, in a few words, cheated, not onlylisted the fact that passinghad, andanalyzed the futuresituation, makingaristocratLahmdispel the misgivingstemporarily.穆罗斯接着说到。不得不说,他的话语还是很有说服力的,三言两语,连哄带骗,既列出了过往发生的事实,又分析了未来的形势,让贵族拉海姆暂时打消了顾虑。
