When this Ostland envoy stands before the hill ice dragon remains, the expression made the people laugh in one's heart exaggeratingly. 当这位奥斯特领的使者站在如小山般的冰龙遗骸前时,表情之夸张令众人不禁暗笑。 „Is this frost Dragon?” “这就是冰霜巨龙？” Messengers trembling touches the dragon scale of ice dragon with the hand, even if had died, but ices the dragon remains to give the impact of person still beyond comparison. Solely is that closing eye, has half person high. Several sharp dragon teeth stretch out from dragon mouth, above also remains the trace of blood. As if telling its past savage and bloodiness. 使者战战兢兢的用手去触碰冰龙的龙鳞,即便已经死去,但是冰龙遗骸给人的震撼力依旧是无以伦比的。单单是那颗合上的眼睛,就有半人多高。几颗锋利的龙牙从龙口内伸出,上面还残留着鲜血的痕迹。仿佛在诉说着它往日的凶残与血腥。 „Exactly said, is only the ice dragon, but also is not Dragon.” “确切的说,只是冰龙,还算不上是巨龙。” Rod replied with a smile. He puts out a hand to stroke dragon skin, the Empire envoy wants to imitate, but the finger just touched the dragon skin, then shrank rapidly. 罗德笑着回答到。他伸手去抚摸龙皮,帝国使者想要效仿,但是手指刚刚触碰到龙皮,便迅速缩了回去。 „How to ice?” “怎么这么冰？” The envoys are startled to ask. 使者惊问到。 „Normal. The frost dragon is the cold physique, even the death, the cold air survived as within the body. With all weapons that the remains of frost dragon build, has the ice cold attribute.” “正常。冰霜龙属于寒性体质,即便死亡,寒气依旧残存在体内。用冰霜龙的遗骸打造的所有武器,也都拥有冰寒属性。” Rod returns with a smile. In fact, these knowledge also Dwarf just told oneself some time ago, although Rod knew, but was not versatile. In some knowledge and realities are inconsistent radically...... 罗德笑着回到。事实上,这些知识也是不久前矮人刚刚告诉自己的,罗德虽然知道一些,但并不是全能的。有些知识和现实里根本对不上号…… „Praised to the heavens.” “叹为观止。” A envoy side ring walks around the ice dragon remains, at the same time exudes the heartfelt sigh sound. 使者一边环绕着冰龙遗骸行走,一边发出由衷的感叹声。 „Does not know how Sir Lord does plan to process this skeleton?” “不知道领主大人打算如何处理这具尸骨？” Finally, this young envoy from Empire Ostland is out of control to closely examine curiously. 终于,这位来自帝国奥斯特领的小使者还是禁不住好奇追问了起来。 „Can the reclaim and utilize complete recycles. Remaining, burns down.” “能回收利用的全部回收起来。剩下的,一把火烧掉。” Rod is replying briefly and to the point. 罗德简明扼要的回答着。 „That is a wealth of astronomical figures.” “那将是一笔天文数字的财富。” The envoys flattered. Rod only finds it ridiculous in one side, this fellow from the beginning arrogant until the present flattery, the transformation of attitude used less than ten minutes of time merely. 使者吹捧到。罗德在一旁只觉得好笑,这家伙从一开始的高傲到现在的奉承,态度的转变仅仅用了十分钟不到的时间。 „Astronomical figures? Hehe, is far from.” “天文数字？呵呵,谈不上。” Rod smalltalk — — 罗德客套着—— „To me, the wealth is no doubt important, but the symbolic value of this dragon is more important. Your excellency you may know before then, rumor that because Kislev North the giant beast arrives at but in constant anxiety. Now, so long as there is a remains skeleton of this ice dragon, the panic of people then can alleviate, this is I most regards as important. In fact, ices the value of dragon unable to weigh with the wealth merely, when manpower sufficient time, I will make people hang the dragon's head, places the town entrance, deters all north Norscan. Let them know that this town is inviolable. These things are the values that I most value.” “不过对于我来说,财富固然重要,但是这条龙的象征价值更为重要。阁下你可知道在此之前,基斯里夫北境因为巨兽降临的谣言而惶惶不可终日。现在,只要有这条冰龙的遗骸尸骨,民众的恐慌情绪便可以得以缓解,这才是我最看重的。事实上,冰龙的价值不能仅仅用财富去衡量,等人手充足的时候,我会让人将龙头挂起来,放在城镇门口,威慑所有北方诺斯卡人。让他们知道这座城镇是不可侵犯的。这些东西才是我最看重的价值。” „That natural, Lord Rod your vision looks deeply compared with the average person, looks farther ahead.” “那当然,罗德领主您的目光比一般人看得深,看得远。” The envoys flattered. Naturally, some words Rod have not said to him, ices the remains of dragon to be dismembered analyzes, divides many to return to Erengrad and Blackhammer Fort, but is biggest the dragon tooth to be delivered to northern Lonedragon, lets the Dwarf Runesmith processing, fuses together with the family big sword, casts to turn into a dragon tooth sword, to deter northern Barbarian. But to a strange external envoy, really does not need to say too. 使者奉承到。当然,有些话罗德也没有对他说完,冰龙的遗骸将被肢解拆分,分多块送回厄仑格拉德和黑锤堡,而其中最大颗的龙牙将被送到北方独龙城,让矮人符文工匠加工,与家族大剑融为一体,铸成龙牙剑,以威慑北方蛮族。而对一个陌生的外来使者,实在没必要说太多。 „Returns home the subject, when does your excellency plan to start?” “言归正题吧,阁下打算什么时候启程？” Rod asked that has not waited for the envoy to reply, continued — — 罗德问到,还没等使者回答,又继续说—— „My opinion is today walks.” “我的意见是今天就走。” „No matter that Wood Elf said somewhat credible, so long as there is a possibility that this situation has, you must bring to the attention. As the Kislev ally, I do not hope that saw great Empire is plundered the invasion and any barbaric influence. If so, in Empire taking away confusion and disaster of blood light to liveliness.” “不管那个木精灵说的有几分可信,但是只要有这种情况存在的可能性,你们就必须引起重视。作为基斯里夫的盟友,我不希望看到伟大的帝国遭到任何野蛮势力的入侵和掠夺。若真是那样,将会给繁华中的帝国带去混乱与血光之灾。” „This asked Sir Lord you to be able rest assured that my time came is specially for this matter, I bring to embark the imperial guards today.” “这个请领主大人您放心,我这次来就是专程为了这件事的,我今天就将禁卫军们带上船。” The envoys are replying respectfully. 使者恭敬的回答着。 „As soon as possible, the news morning a point passes to Altdorf, can save the innocent civilians.” “尽快,消息早一点传到阿尔道夫,可以多拯救许多无辜的平民。” Rod spoke. 罗德说到。 „A matter.” “还有一件事。” Envoy looks at Rod, said earnestly. 使者看着罗德,认真的说。 „What matter?” “什么事？” „My this time, presented the order of Maximilian Great Lord, inviting Lord Rod you to go to Wolfenburg to meet with it.” “我这次来,还是奉了马克西米安大领主的命令,邀请罗德领主您前往沃尔芬堡与之会面。” „Hehe, do not crack a joke, I am Lord, is not vagrant poet and Knight, what goes to your territories to make? The special period, I think that I stay in the oneself territory is quite good.” “呵呵,别开玩笑,我可是领主,不是流浪诗人和骑士,前往你们的领地上做什么呢？特殊时期,我想我还是留在自己的领地上比较好。” Rod replied with a smile. 罗德笑着回答。 „Respectable Sir Lord, I have not joked with you, in fact, my time arrived here, the first duty is to escort Wood Elf and Rick guard the imperial palace returns to the Empire capital, another matter, then presents Sir Maximilian order, sends out the invitation to you, hopes that Sir Lord can gather to Wolfenburg. Maximilian Great Lord has made the written comments on the issue of Wall construction, Ostland will send out some engineer brigade also commodities, supports the Wall construction. The cooperation that then continues, needs the Sir you to go to Wolfenburg personally, oneself exchanges with Great Lord.” “尊敬的领主大人,我没有和您开玩笑,事实上,我这次来到这里,第一个任务是护送木精灵和瑞克禁卫们返回帝国首都,另外一件事,便是奉马克西米安大人的命令,向您发出邀请,希望领主大人能够到沃尔芬堡一聚。马克西米安大领主已经就长城修建的问题做出批示,奥斯特领将派出工程队还有一部分物资,支援长城建设。而后续的合作,需要大人您亲自前往沃尔芬堡,与大领主本人交流。” The Empire envoy is saying serious. Moreover, this matter is absolutely impossible to crack a joke, Ostland and Kislev border on, before Maximilian had then come Kislev and oneself conversation business partnerships item, at the present, this Empire Elector Count agrees to support the Wall construction work unexpectedly, this made Rod somewhat be surprised actually. However the words of envoy have not said, Rod guessed the matter is not certainly simple, even if Maximilian is the person of being righteous, but as side Lord, is impossible to support the foreign construction city wall unconditionally. Wasted money expends effort not saying that in a short time had nothing effectively, he is unable and place aristocrats explains with oneself people. 帝国使者神情严肃的说着。而且,这种事绝对不可能开玩笑,奥斯特领与基斯里夫接壤,之前马克西米安便来过基斯里夫与自己交谈贸易合作事项,而今,这位帝国选帝侯竟然同意支援长城修建工作,这倒是让罗德有些倍感意外了。不过使者的话没有说完,罗德猜测事情一定没那么简单,马克西米安纵然是深明大义之人,但是作为一方领主,也绝不可能无条件支援外国修建城墙。耗财耗力不说,短期内根本没有任何见效,他无法和自己的领民们和地方贵族们交待。 ...... …… „Great Lord, news from North.” “大领主,来自北境的消息。” After the envoys leave, Knight Shibeis brings the letter paper to look for Rod. 使者离开后,骑士西贝斯带着信笺来找罗德。 „Opens, reads.” “打开,念。” Rod spoke. 罗德说到。 „Yes, Sir.” “是的,大人。” Shibeis disassembles the letter paper slowly, had a thought above writing — — 西贝斯缓缓拆开信笺,念起了上面的文字—— „Respectable Blackhammer Fort Lord, great North Great Lord, Erengrad Archduke, protector......” “尊敬的黑锤堡领主,伟大的北境大领主,厄仑格拉德大公爵,守护者……” „Ok, read the key point.” “行了,念重点。” Rod interrupted the readout of Knight. 罗德打断了骑士的宣读。 „Blackhammer Fort connects the Erengrad main road to fix, the drainage system is completed synchronously. The Hyde Fort vodka output drops, but each region cultivation has developed orderly. The frost Dragon killed news has travelled in the people of North, the people are no longer scared, the Wall labor returns orderly.” “黑锤堡连接厄仑格拉德的主干道已经修好,排水系统同步完成。海德堡的伏特加酒产量下降,但是各地耕种已经有序开展。冰霜巨龙被杀的消息已经在北境之民中传开,民众不再恐慌,长城民工有序返回。” Shibeis read. 西贝斯念到。 Rod then relaxes. In recent years, transmits news ten that to have nine from North is the bad news. Now, the Kislev civil war just ended, needs to rest and build up strength, has anything to happen again, cannot endure. Drops this as for the Hyde Fort wine-making base output and nothing to wonder , the raw material of vodka is the potato, the chaos caused by war makes many lands leave uncultivated, without the crop , there would be no raw material, the output drops also is very naturally normal. The grain agriculture is the foundation, this aspect does not have the major problem stably. 罗德这才松了一口气。这些年来,从北境传来的消息十条有九条是坏消息。现在,基斯里夫内战刚结束,正是需要休养生息的时候,再有什么事情发生,根本吃不消。至于海德堡酿酒基地产量下降这并不足为怪,伏特加酒的原料是土豆,战乱让许多土地荒废,没有收成就没有原料,产量下降自然也很正常。谷物农业是根基,这方面稳定就没有大问题。 „Ok, I knew.” “好了,我知道了。” Rod spoke. 罗德说到。 „Great Lord, do we really want to go to Wolfenburg?” “大领主,我们真的要去沃尔芬堡吗？” Shibeis receives the letter paper, curious is closely examining. He sees the surviving in the wharf these busy workers, had the question at heart. 西贝斯收起信笺,好奇的追问着。他看到残存的码头上那些忙碌的工人,不禁心里起了疑问。 „Yes. We and they start together. Maximilian complies to support us to construct Wall, this regarding North, regarding Erengrad, regarding Kislev, is a good deed, it will lighten the financial burden. Therefore, we must go.” “是的。我们和他们一起启程。马克西米安答应支援我们修建长城,这对于北境,对于厄仑格拉德,对于基斯里夫来说,都是一件好事,它将减轻财政负担。所以,我们要去一趟。” Rod replied calmly. 罗德平静回答到。
