All ships can not leave port!” “下令封锁所有码头！所有船只一律不得出港！” „Now, which hotel, leading me to look!” “现在,哪家旅馆,带我去找！” Rod almost cannot suppress the oneself innermost feelings wild with joy, sound unconscious shivering that somewhat spoke. 罗德几乎抑制不住自己内心的狂喜,连说话的声音都不自觉的有些颤抖。 ...... …… Erengrad outer harbor area, outside dazzling store, a youth face satisfied stops to wait and see. In the ironmongery, there is a handicraft that various types of tools and metals make, the ornament. These things make the youth quite like, not because of the exquisite modeling of handicraft, but is various essential — — metals of casting these small thing. 厄仑格拉德外港区,琳琅满目的商店外,青年正一脸惬意的驻足观望。五金店里,有各种工具和金属制成的工艺品,装饰物。这些东西让青年颇有喜欢,不是因为工艺品的精巧造型,而是铸造这些小玩意的本质——各种金属。 The youth have the inborn love to this type of thing, as if oneself can induce the sensation inborn they. 青年对这种东西有着天生的迷恋,仿佛自己天生就可以感应感知它们。 With the eye observation, can see different gloss that the different metal surfaces emit. 用眼睛观察,可以看到不同金属表面所散发出来的不同光泽。 With hand touching, can feel the different degree of hardness and flexibility that the different metals manifest, the ductility. 用手触摸,可以感受到不同金属所体现出来的不同硬度和柔韧性,延展性。 Taps them, but can also induce to the different sounds that the different metals change, adopts the sound slight difference, then can sensation their special attributes. That is really the world's most wonderful voice. 轻敲它们,还可以感应到不同金属所换发出来的不同声音,通过声音细微的差别,便可以感知它们的特殊属性。那真是世界上最美妙的声音。 Sets sail also the time of three hours from Armstrong, the youth is bored to death is strolling in the block outside wharf. Although on the ship has the luxurious passenger compartment, has the comfortable two person bed, but the feeling on ship always cannot compare the land, this conscientious security sense is on the sea boat is unable to give, regardless of the ships are big, can always hardly be removed by the feeling that the sea water dragging floats. 距离阿姆斯壮号起航还有三个钟头的时间,青年百无聊赖的在码头外的街区上闲逛着。尽管船上有豪华包间,有舒适的双人大床,但是船上的感觉总比不上陆地,这种脚踏实地的安全感是海船上无法给予的,无论船只再大,被海水拖动漂浮的感觉总是挥之不去。 The bell tower in distant place heard the unwieldy ding, 10 : 00 am, the time also had, was not anxious. The youth enter a tavern slowly, ordered two plates of snacks and one bottle of fruit juice, is preparing to sit the rest waiting to serve food, then saw out of the door to intrude one group of facial features not genial fellows. 远处的钟楼传来了笨重的钟声,上午 10 时,时间还有的,不急。青年慢悠悠的走进一家酒馆,点了两盘小吃和一瓶果汁,正准备坐下来休息等待上菜,便看到门外闯入了一群面容不和善的家伙。 This group of people just like the vagabond mouse to be the same, in pairs a tiny eye wicked is staring at the person in tavern. Felt that the atmosphere is not right, the youth pulls out a metal mask with the bosom conveniently, wore on the face. 这群人犹如地痞老鼠一般,用一双双细小的眼睛恶狠狠的盯着酒馆内的人。感觉到气氛不对劲,青年顺手用怀里掏出一张金属面具,戴在了脸上。 He planned to leave, actually saw the people who each tries to go out of the hotel must stare by the villain chieftain ruthlessly are sizing up. Therefore, the youth no longer moves, an appearance calmly, sits on the oneself seat. 他原本打算离开,却看到每个试图走出旅馆的人都要被恶棍头目狠狠盯着打量一番。于是,青年不再动弹,一副若无其事的样子,坐在自己的座位上。 These local ruffians take a drawing paper, is seeking to the crowd one by one. The youth know probably had anything. 那些地痞流氓拿着一张画纸,对着人群挨个寻找。青年大概知道发生了什么。 Damn! The luck is not really good, should walk earlier. 该死的！运气真不好,应该早点走的。 The youth spoke to oneself. However things have gotten to this point, had no alternative. He wears the mask, lazy lying down on the chair, is looking at the drizzle of out of the window „being lost in thought”. 青年对自己说到。但是事已至此,也别无选择了。他戴着面具,慵懒的躺在椅子上,望着窗外的细雨“出神”。 Until that vagabond chieftain arrives in front of oneself. 直到那个地痞头目走到自己面前。 „Mister, please take off your mask.” “先生,请把你的面具摘下。” On that arm leads the scabs vagabond bludger to speak in a low voice, tone moderately. Was full of the polite flavor. 那个胳膊上带着伤疤的地痞混混低声说到,语气不轻不重。充满了客气的味道。 Youth slow, sat straight the body, quite a while asked — — gently 青年缓了缓,坐直了身子,半天才轻轻反问到—— „Excuse me, what matter have?” “请问,有什么事么？” „It‘s nothing special matter, we are looking for a person.” “没什么特别的事,我们在寻找一个人。” The vagabond chieftain spoke in a low voice. He does not dare to have any uncouthly action, because this youth seems like the elegant bearing at present, wears the magnificent clothing of aristocrat . Moreover, solely this mask, is priceless, seemingly the pure gold builds. The status difference makes the vagabond chief have the awe naturally, does not dare to make action out of the ordinary. 地痞头目低声说到。他并不敢有任何粗鲁的举动,因为眼前这位青年看上去风度翩翩,穿着贵族的华丽服饰,而且,单单这幅面具,就价值连城,看上去似乎是纯金打造的。身份差异让地痞头子自然而然的产生敬畏,不敢做出出格的举动。 The youth know, at present these people, are only in the surface vicious, once meets compared with the oneself position high person, recognizes immediately instigated. 青年知道,眼前这些人,只是表面上凶狠,一旦遇到比自己地位高的人,立马认怂。 Therefore, he anxiously is not slow, asked — — in a soft voice 于是,他也不急不慢,轻声反问到—— „What person looks for?” “寻找什么人？” „A Alchemy master, a swindler.” “一个炼金术士,一个骗子。” The vagabond chieftain should in a low voice. Although he wants to put out a hand to borrow money surface person of mask directly, but he also knows, if the opposite party is really an aristocrat, the so uncouthly action will cause what consequence to oneself. 地痞头目低声应到。尽管他很想直接伸手去摘对面这人的面具,但是他也知道,万一对方真是个贵族,这般粗鲁的举动会给自己带来什么后果。 Only can bear patiently , to continue with the method of spoken language, hopes that the opposite party takes off the mask on own initiative, quite makes him confirm. 只能隐忍下来,继续用言语的手段,希望对方主动摘下面具,好让他确认一番。 „Oh? Alchemy master? This year Alchemy master may be many . Moreover, you said right, they were the swindlers. I had also been plotted together to swindle somebody by a meeting Alchemy family/home. Really damn, he complies to give me to build a gold ring that mounts the gem, after I have paid wages, he takes to me counterfeit goods of gold-plating!” “噢？炼金术士？这年头炼金术士可不少,而且,你说对了,他们都是骗子。我也曾经被一个会炼金的家伙骗过。真该死,他答应给我打造一枚镶嵌宝石的金戒指,但是当我付过工钱后,他却拿给我一个镀金的假货！” The youth are saying, wicked pounds the fist on the table, thump, making the vagabond chieftains somewhat be startled. One the reply of face ignorant circle — — 青年说着,恶狠狠的将拳头砸在桌上,咚的一声,让地痞头目都有些怔住了。一脸懵圈的回答到—— „That indeed is a hateful bastard.” “那的确是个可恶的混蛋。” „With cheating that Alchemy masters of our lord is similar. Is the same thing.” “和骗走我们主子的那个炼金术士差不多。都是一样的混账东西。” The vagabond chief supplements. 地痞头子补充到。 „In mainland should not have such occupation. The Empire gold school should manage, in the market so many Alchemy swindlers, went bad the reputation of this school simply!” “大陆上就不应该有这样的职业。帝国黄金学院应该管管,市场上这么多炼金骗子,简直坏了这个学院的名声！” The youth reprimanded to rail. 青年斥责谩骂到。 Nod of vagabond chieftain hastily approval. 地痞头目连忙赞同的点了点头。 „On the other hand, these understood the person who Alchemy knowledge, not necessarily can be the Alchemy master. They most understand a fur/superficial knowledge. The real Alchemy master, I thinks that they disdain to do this matter. Naturally, possibly is I also harbors the fantasy to the golden school. I always felt, they train, should not be such fool!” “不过话又说回来,那些懂得炼金知识的人,未必算得上是炼金术士。他们最多就是懂得点皮毛而已。真正的炼金术士,我想他们才不屑做这种事。当然,也可能是我对黄金学院还抱有幻想。我总感觉,他们培养出来的,不应该是这样的蠢蛋！” The youth are saying, pounded on the table wickedly, pats the tableware on table ding-dong to make noise. The vagabond chieftain only feels scalp tingles, he does not dare to sit again, otherwise, does not know that at present this agitated aristocrat will also make anything...... in the tavern also some so many people, does not need to stare at one not to put stubbornly. Wants that person who comes old Captain to catch possibly already not in this city, seeking of looking for a needle in a haystack, the vagabond chief did not count on really can catch. 青年说着,又恶狠狠的拍了拍桌子,拍得桌上的餐具当当作响。地痞头目只觉得一阵头皮发麻,他不敢再坐下去,否则,不知道眼前这个情绪激动的贵族还会做什么……酒馆里还有这么多人,也没必要死死盯着一个不放。想来老船长要抓的那个人可能早已不在这座城市里了,大海捞针的寻找,地痞头子可不指望真的可以抓到。 „Eh...... the mister, you to the view of Alchemy master and I are consistent. The volume...... I have the important matter to manage, first did not disturb you.” “额……先生,您对炼金术士的看法和我可是一致的。额……我还有要事要办,就先不打扰你了。” Then, the vagabond chief turns around, walks toward the next table. 说完,地痞头子转身,向下一桌走去。 While the youth thinks the matter ended time, outside the tavern, transmitted large numbers of cavalries to gallop suddenly, but loud sound. 正当青年以为事情结束了的时候,酒馆外,突然传来了大批骑兵奔腾而过的巨响。 By this simultaneously, out of the door, rushed in a bigger wave of people, they are not the local ruffians, but is the Erengrad regular regiment soldier and city patrol leader. Takes the lead, is Knight that wears the armor. 以此同时,门外,闯进了更大的一波人,他们不是地痞流氓,而是厄仑格拉德的正规军团士兵和城市巡逻队。领头的,是一名身穿铠甲的骑士。 „Bayer Ze Mr. Gelter here? Great Lord Rod has the matter to ask you to see.” “请问拜尔沙泽・盖尔特先生在这里吗？大领主罗德有事想请您一见。” That Knight passing through the gate, the sound then has just covered the audience immediately. Several just also in the bludger of questioning hides on the seat immediately, does not dare to move. 那骑士刚一进门,声音便立刻盖过了全场。几名刚刚还在盘查的小混混顿时躲在座位上,不敢动弹。 They know, this solely is not the person of Erengrad City Guard, the symbol from that Knight armor, they had known that is King of the North Rod subordinate Unit, because, symbol of that quarter on helmet, is erectness vicious White Bear. Without a doubt, entire Kislev, famous Sons of Ursun Knight Order can have such symbol...... 他们知道,这可不单单是厄仑格拉德城市卫队的人,从那名骑士盔甲上的徽记,他们已经得知,那是北境之王罗德的直属部队,因为,那刻在钢盔上的徽记,是一头直立的凶狠白熊。毫无疑问,整个基斯里夫,只有大名鼎鼎的厄孙之子骑士团可以拥有这样的徽记……
