„Gotham?” “哥谭？” The people thought deeply about the long time, has not understood that what is this. 众人思索了半晌,也没明白这是什么意思。 Qilué as Archmage, is knowledgeable, is proficient in more than ten languages, has not actually thought that which literary reference stems from, she cannot bear ask: „What special meaning does this name have?” 葵露身为大法师,知识渊博,精通十几种语言,却也没想起来是出自哪个典故,她忍不住问道:“这个名字有什么特别的含义吗？” Renn has almost not smiled to make noise, on face actually serious explanation: „Gotham is the slang of my hometown, the meaning is ‚common social practice is simple and honorable’. I hope after the Shield Island city constructs, the Gotham residents can the mutual friendly affection, form the good social convention, breeds many talents in the fine environment.” 雷恩差点没笑出声,脸上却一本正经的解释道:“哥谭是我故乡的俚语,意思是‘民风淳朴’。我希望盾岛的城市建起来以后,哥谭的居民们能够互相友爱,形成良好的社会风气,在良好的环境中孕育出众多人才。” „Really is the best wish!” “真是美好的祝愿！” Qilué at present one bright, is joyful: „If so, that is the Elise adherent most ideal homeland, anticipates one day to realize.” 葵露眼前一亮,欣喜道:“如果真是如此,那就是伊莉丝的追随者们最理想的家园,期待有一天能够实现。” On the Yizit face also reveals to yearn for the color. 伊兹特脸上也露出向往之色。 „We will see.” “我们都会看到的。” Renn nods, satisfied own wicked interest, hurries to shift the topic: „I currently happen to hire dwarfs engineer team, is constructing a Battle Wizard school, soon will finish. When the time comes, I will discuss the contract with them again, asking them to construct Gotham to New World.” 雷恩点了点头,满足了自己的恶趣味,赶紧转移话题:“我目前正好雇佣了一支矮人工程队,在建设一座战斗巫师学校,不久就会完工。到时候,我会跟他们再谈合同,请他们到新大陆建设哥谭。” „That was too good!” “那就太好了！” Qilué and Yizit jump for joy , the management of Renn was too effective. 葵露和伊兹特都十分雀跃,雷恩的办事太有效率了。 Renn had the dessert to be tired, rubbed several forehead. 雷恩却是有点心累,揉了几下眉心。 He now on matter are on hand many, must construct the city, work load doubled continues. Constructing a city is different from the school or the fortress completely, resilience difference ten times, even over a hundred times, are only the earlier period plan take several months, this also calculated quickly. 他现在手头上的事情已经很多了,现在又要建城,工作量翻倍都不止。建一座城市跟学校或堡垒完全不同,工程量相差数十倍,甚至上百倍,光是前期规划就要几个月,这还算快了。 Moreover, has not known whether dwarfs engineer team will receive this project. 而且,还不知道矮人工程队是否会接下这个项目。 Goes to distance several tens of thousands of li (0.5 km) away New World, the risk is extremely high, the resilience is also big, but must consider that the complicated factors in various aspects, the contract amount related to more than ten million golden Shield, is only the negotiations must for a long time. 远赴距离数万里之遥的新大陆,危险性极高,工程量又大,还要考虑到各方面的复杂因素,合同数额涉及上千万金盾,光是谈判就要好久。 Such big matter, is not dwarfs engineer team can take responsibility. 这么大的事情,不是矮人工程队能做主的。 Perhaps, he must go to Supreme Mountain personally. 说不定,他要亲自去一趟至高山。 The forward planning, the investigation terrain and fund assemble, the building materials arrangement, the personnel arrangement wait/etc, most important traffic problem. How to deliver to New World so many people, including dwarfs engineer team and transcendent legion, at least 2,000-3,000 people, is always impossible to walk ultra-long-distance teleportation array? 先期规划、勘查地形、资金调集、建材筹备、人员安排等等,还有最重要的交通问题。如何把那么多人送到新大陆,包括矮人工程队和超凡军团,至少2,000-3,000人,总不可能都走超远距传送阵吧？ Is the teleportation expense of personnel is not only able to withstand, not to mention building materials transportation. 光是人员的传送费用就无法承受,更不用说建材运输了。 „You also leave happily are too early, we have a lot to do.” Renn said these worries, both drow showed the understanding. “你们也别高兴太早,我们有很多事情要做。”雷恩把这些顾虑都说出来,两个卓尔都表示理解。 Qilué also understood that constructs the city difficultly, said: „Renn, you did according to your progress were good, began beforehand to inform me. I can use this period of time, gathers the brothers and sisters in various Dark Region drow city, joins to the team of construction.” 葵露也懂得建城有多难,说道:“雷恩,你按照自己的进度来做就好了,开工之前通知我。我可以利用这段时间,把幽暗地域各座卓尔城市中的兄弟姐妹集合起来,加入到建设的队伍中。” „Elise adherent will not sit idle and enjoy the fruits, certainly will make all efforts for the new homeland.” “伊莉丝的追随者们不会坐享其成,一定会为新家园付出所有的努力。” On Dancer of the Moon beautiful face a sincerity. 月之舞女的美丽脸庞上一片诚挚。 „Ok.” “可以。” Renn is very satisfied with the statement of Qilué, he touches the chin, said: „I estimated before begins in six months, you press call the manpower this time.” 雷恩对葵露的表态很满意,他摸了摸下巴,说道:“我之前预计开工在半年后,你就按这个时间来召集人手吧。” „A half year?” Qilué nods, „was enough.” “半年吗？”葵露点了点头,“足够了。” Renn looked at her one eyes. 雷恩不禁看了她一眼。 Qilué said a moment ago she is several days ago knew own one group of news, immediately rushes to Mozoble actually to come up empty-handed, inquired after Tyrbon, pursued, moreover ran up to the front waiting. 刚才葵露说她是几天前才得知自己一行人的消息,立刻赶到魔索布莱却扑了个空,询问泰柏伦后追上来,而且跑到了前面等待。 Now, she can guarantee that in six months relates drow of various cities. 现在,她又能保证在半年内联系各城的卓尔。 In Dark Region has more than ten drow city, distributes in the upper layer and middle layer, the area adds to be equivalent to half New World, even is familiar with the route, if cannot teleportation, light/only hurry along to cost lots of time in various cities. 要知道,幽暗地域里有十几座卓尔城市,分布在上层与中层,面积加起来相当于半个新大陆,即使对路线非常熟悉,如果不能传送的话,光是在各城之间赶路就要耗费大量时间。 This indicated that she has one type to be able high-speed movement the method in Dark Region. 这说明她拥有一种能够在幽暗地域中快速移动的方法。 „Lady Qilué, how do you run up to front of us?” Renn does not want to beat around the bush, directly asked. “葵露女士,你是怎么跑到我们前面的？”雷恩不想拐弯抹角,直接问了。 Beautiful female drow looks the smile: „I have my means.” 美丽的女卓尔面露微笑:“我有自己的办法。” „Can say?” Renn asked: „Our destinations are lower-level illithid city Eleanor, if can rush as soon as possible, can save over half a month time.” “可以说吗？”雷恩问道:“我们的目的地是下层的灵吸怪城市伊莱恩托,如果能尽快赶到,可以节省大半个月的时间。” „Do you want to go to Eleanor?” “你们要去伊莱恩托？” Qilué is very surprised, after obtaining the Renn affirmative answer, she pondered several seconds, in the hand presents a light book. Its only more than ten pages of thick, look very ancient, the footer whirls around worn-out, obviously frequently was glanced through. 葵露很惊讶,得到雷恩肯定的答复后,她思考了几秒秒钟,手上出现一本薄薄的册子。它仅有十几页厚,看起来非常古老,页脚翻卷破旧,显然经常被翻阅。 „Dark Region thorough underground, overwhelming majority spaces were hard to estimate the weight the rock soil to occupy, they twisted this space, affects teleportation magic spell precision. From is farther, the deviation is bigger, will have the teleportation accident incautiously, loses one's life at the scene.” “幽暗地域深入地下,绝大部分空间被难以估算重量的岩石泥土占据,它们扭曲了这片空间,影响传送法术的精准度。距离越远,偏差越大,一不小心就会发生传送事故,当场送命。” These that she said that Renn is also very clear. 她说的这些,雷恩也很清楚。 Long-distance range teleportation in Dark Region is a big difficult problem, even if to open the portal way to explore the way, the success ratio is extremely still low, several hundred times may not be completed one time, forms stable portal. 在幽暗地域中远距离传送是一个大难题,即使以开启传送门的方式探路,成功率也极低,数百次不一定能完成一次,形成稳定的传送门。 Qilué is saying, while opens the book in hand. 葵露一边说着,一边翻开手中的册子。 Above Renn saw to write all over an all various professions runes code, every several other lines will stop, looked very complex, just like the heavenly book. 雷恩看见上面写满了一行行符文密语,每隔几行就会停顿一处,看起来非常复杂,犹如天书。 What the average people possibly cannot understand this to write is anything, but his eyes recognized. 一般人可能根本看不懂这写的是什么,但他一眼就认出来了。 This is teleport beacon! 这是传送道标！ Qilué self-satisfied saying with a smile: „But, in Dark Region can actually teleportation, but needs the precise teleport beacon assistance. I for passed through in Dark Region, spent for over a hundred years, went all over most Dark Region, found more than 500 space stable positions, laid down in each position contains teleport beacon guiding stone together.” 葵露得意的笑道:“不过,幽暗地域中其实是可以传送的,但需要精确的传送道标辅助。我为了方便在幽暗地域中通行,花费了上百年时间,走遍大半个幽暗地域,找到五百多个空间稳定的位置,在每个位置都埋下一块蕴含传送道标的引路石。” „guiding stone looks like the guidepost, directs our teleportation.” “引路石就像是路标,指引我们传送。” „So long as grasped beacon in each guiding stone, both sides point of descent connects, teleportation becomes very safe, is almost impossible to make a mistake.” “只要掌握了每块引路石中的道标,两端落点连接起来,传送就变得十分安全,几乎不可能出错。” „Even some errors, will not be in danger.” “即使有一些误差,也不会有生命危险。” „Some guiding stone distances are very near, some actually leave, is not fixed. guiding stone that I arrange covered the Dark Region known 70% regions, is primarily the upper layer and middle layer, you can choose nearest teleport beacon, displays position that teleportation magic spell arrives at assigns, then goes to the next place.” “有些引路石的距离很近,有些却离得很远,并不固定。我布置的引路石覆盖了幽暗地域已知的70%区域,以上层和中层为主,你可以选择距离最近的传送道标,施展传送法术到达指定的位置,然后前往下一个地点。” Renn and the others listened to admire extremely, this absolutely is a talent idea. 雷恩等人听了极为佩服,这绝对是一个天才主意。 But also needs to invest lots of time to complete, is only these guiding stone on the value not poor, is skilled in teleportation magic spell Archmage to achieve. 但也需要投入大量时间去完成,光是那些引路石就价值不菲,只有精通传送法术的大法师才能做到。 More than 500 guiding stone composed huge teleportation network, grasps this network, can open access in Dark Region! 五百多个引路石组成了一张庞大的传送网络,掌握这张网络,就能在幽暗地域里畅通无阻！ Its importance can be imagined. 它的重要性可想而知。 Renn can use mutated phone, the teleport beacon book duplicated this record, but he does not have to do that. 雷恩可以用变异手机,神不知鬼不觉的把这本记载了传送道标的册子复制过来,但他没有这么做。 Plagiarizes others many years of painstaking care achievements, this matter cannot do. 剽窃别人多年的心血成果,这种事自己干不出来。 Qilué opens the page , to continue saying: „Eleanor lower level Dark Region, the position is remote, the average people have not heard. However, your luck are good, my many years have gone one time, arranged guiding stone thereby, when I search.” 葵露翻开书页,继续说道:“伊莱恩托在幽暗地域下层,位置非常偏僻,一般人都没听说过。不过,你们的运气不错,我很多年前去过一次,在那附近也布置了一块引路石,等我查找一下。” „Had.” “有了。” She soon found the result of wish, fast after computation, on face blooming smile: „Passes through teleportation with my guiding stone 12 times, can arrive at that position, to Eleanor, only then half-day distance.” 她很快找到了想要的结果,飞快计算过后,脸上绽放笑容:“用我的引路石经过十二次传送,就能到达那个位置,离伊莱恩托只有半天路程。” „Good!” Yizit joyfully. “太好了！”伊兹特欣喜不已。 The teammates were also very happy, more than 20 days in Dark Region, they have felt sick about total darkness underground world, only wants to finish leaving earlier. 队友们也很高兴,在幽暗地域里二十多天,他们已经对暗无天日的地底世界感到厌烦了,只想早点结束离开。 Qilué looks to Renn, „I deliver you to pass, told your teleport beacon along the way to walk?” 葵露看向雷恩,“我送你们过去,还是告诉你沿途的传送道标自己走？” „Troubles madam to deliver us a regulation.” Renn replied immediately. “麻烦女士送我们一程。”雷恩马上回答。 He wants to attain these teleport beacon, but not in this profiting way, moreover only attains 12 teleport beacon uses is not big. 他很想拿到这些传送道标,但不是以这种占便宜的方式,而且只拿到十二个传送道标用处也不大。 Must with probably obtain completely, and frank and upright succeeding in obtaining. 要拿就要得到全部,并且是光明正大的到手。 „Good.” “好。” Qilué regarding tactful of Renn, is very at heart satisfied. She receives the books, observes the situation, „, if everyone rested enough, now on set off.” 葵露对于雷恩的识趣,心里很满意。她收起书册,环视一圈,“如果大家休息够了,现在就出发。” Renn stands to salute toward her, then traded Reislin. 雷恩站起来朝她行礼,然后把雷斯林换了回来。 Qilué looks at the Reislin appearance, shakes the head to acclaim, „is really mysterious clone magic spell, such far distance can also exchange the position instantaneously.” 葵露看着雷斯林的模样,不禁摇头赞叹,“真是神奇的分身法术,这么远的距离也能瞬间交换位置。” In her eye is somewhat curious, asks: „Can disclose that is what magic spell?” 她眼里有些好奇,问道:“可以透露是什么法术吗？” „Sorry, madam.” Reislin rejection. “抱歉,女士。”雷斯林拒绝了。 Qilué is a little disappointed, but can also understand, therefore no longer closely examines, lifts hand, a magic ray shines before the body, rapidly forms portal. 葵露有点失望但也能理解,于是不再追问,抬手施法,一阵魔法光芒在身前亮起来,迅速形成一道传送门。 Her first walks. 她第一个走进去。 Reislin and teammates follow to enter portal, discovered oneself arrive in a dim cavern, remote corner situated in this cavern. 雷斯林和队友们跟着进入传送门,发现自己来到一处昏暗的洞穴中,位于这个洞穴的偏僻角落。 All Seeing Eye looks to the under foot, found a silver rock along weak magic fluctuation. 全视之眼看向脚下,沿着微弱的魔法波动找到了一块银色岩石。 It became many cylinders of rule by the casting, volume with head almost big or small, in the surface is carving arcane spell runes, close magic array thorough. 它被铸造成规则的多面柱形,体积跟头颅差不多大小,表面上刻着奥术符文,细密的法阵深入内部。 This should be guiding stone. 这应该就是引路石了。 Entire guiding stone was buried in the place second half meter/rice place, with the portal closure, magic fluctuation also restrains quickly, had not disclosed that aura, as if integrates this void completely. And, it automatic derives the weak energy from void, this does not use like teleportation array the frequent maintenance, not only economizes and reduces effort, at least can maintain for several hundred years, even 1,000-2,000 years. 整块引路石被埋在地下半米处,随着传送门关闭,魔法波动也很快收敛,没有透露出一丝的气息,仿佛完全融入这片虚空。并且,它自动从虚空中汲取微弱的能量,这样就不用像传送阵那样频繁维护,既省钱又省力,至少能维持数百年,甚至1,000-2,000年。 „Good wise technique!” Reislin exclaimed in surprise secretly. “好高明的手法！”雷斯林暗自惊叹。 With his experience, had not heard guiding stone before, this either is the original creation of Qilué, either is she emissary as Goddess of Magic, obtains the instruction of goddess. 以他的见识,以前从来没有听说过引路石,这要么是葵露的独创,要么是她身为魔法女神的选民,得到女神的传授。 In the surface, naturally cannot use guiding stone. 在地表上,自然用不到引路石。 But in outer layer plane and Bottomless Abyss, the spaces of many region same is unstable with Dark Region, even, is unable long-distance range teleportation to be the normal state. In these environment, guiding stone is also useful, formed teleportation network has extremely high strategic position. 但在外层位面和无底深渊,很多区域的空间跟幽暗地域一样不稳定,甚至,无法远距离传送才是常态。那些环境里,引路石同样有用,组建的传送网络具有极高的战略地位。 Later must exchange to make the guiding stone method from the sunflower road hand! 以后要从葵路手里交换到制造引路石的方法！ Qilué glances through beacon on books, opens portal again. 葵露翻阅书册上的道标,再次打开传送门。 Each teleportation point of descent has guiding stone together, hidden in underground, is extremely difficult to discover. guiding stone is very stable in the space of region, the range of this stable space is small, superficially with the surrounding no difference, seeks for the process to be no different looks for a needle in a haystack, obviously Qilué spent many energy for this reason. 每个传送落点都有一块引路石,隐藏在地下,极难发现。引路石所在区域的空间都很稳定,这种稳定空间的范围非常小,表面上看跟周围没什么区别,寻找过程无异于大海捞针,可见葵露为此花费了多少精力。 Reislin judged according to Qilué portal, teleportation from sometimes sometimes near, does not have the rule. 雷斯林根据葵露的传送门判断,传送距离时远时近,毫无规律。 A time, twice, three times...... 一次、两次、三次…… Qilué non-stop opening portal, making the people span fast void. 葵露不停打开传送门,让众人快速跨越虚空。 Shortly, 12 th teleportation finished. 不久后,第十二次传送完毕。 The people appear in a burning hot cavern, beyond the front several hundred meters is river of the lava, in dark red magma pool emits the connected steam bubble, in the dim air filled had the toxic sulfur taste, several seconds on were hot the whole body to sweat. 众人出现在一个炎热的洞穴里,前方数百米外就是一条熔岩之河,暗红的岩浆池里冒出连串汽泡,朦胧的空气里充满了带有毒性的硫磺味,几秒钟就热得全身冒汗。 „We arrived.” “我们到了。” Qilué opens the cold ice to protect the shield isolation to be burning hot together, said: „I am not many in the Dark Region lower-level guiding stone quantity, altogether only has more than 30, this is away from Eleanor recent one, so long as quite a while the distance arrived.” 葵露撑开一道寒冰护盾隔绝炎热,说道:“我在幽暗地域下层的引路石数量不多,总共只有三十多块,这是距离伊莱恩托最近的一块,只要半天路程就到了。” She spoke, gave everyone to hold the blister technique conveniently, the feeling was more comfortable. 她说话间,随手也给所有人都加持了水泡术,感觉舒服了许多。 „Many thanks madam teleportation.” Reislin expressed gratitude. “多谢女士的传送。”雷斯林表示感谢。 „Minor matter.” “小事一桩。” Qilué beckons with the hand, then the look enforces, „I the understanding of the illithid city am not many, but from former illithid, they absolutely was evil creature, was full of the evil intention to the outcomer.” 葵露摆了摆手,然后神色严肃起来,“我对灵吸怪城市的了解不多,但从以前遇到的灵吸怪来看,它们绝对是邪恶生物,对外来者充满了恶意。” „Their origins are mystical, this is Dark Region biggest secret one.” “它们的来历非常神秘,这是幽暗地域最大的秘密之一。” „According to me judged, the risk of illithid city is far higher than drow city, reason that if cannot go, I urged you do not take risk.” “据我判断,灵吸怪城市的危险性远高于卓尔城市,如果没有非去不可的理由,我劝你们不要冒险。” A Dancer of the Moon good intention. 月之舞女一片好意。 She places hopes in Renn to build up Gotham City, does not want to see the Renn failure, Yizit and these people die from some unknown cause. 她寄希望于雷恩建起哥谭城,不想见到雷恩失败,还有伊兹特和这几个人死得不明不白。 The teammates look to Reislin. 队友们都看向雷斯林。 They to the reason that present not clear Renn seeks for the illithid city. 他们到现在也不清楚雷恩寻找灵吸怪城市的原因。 Reislin hesitates several, now does not need to conceal, said truthfully: „In the illithid city has demonic soul that I need, I must obtain it.” 雷斯林沉吟几声,如今也不用隐瞒了,如实说道:“灵吸怪城市里有我需要的魔魂,我必须得到它。” „What demonic soul?” Qilué asked. “什么魔魂？”葵露问道。 „I am also unascertainable, but over 90% is illithid MainBrain.” Reislin has not said definitely the words, cannot say that this is the information that sees from prophecy spell. “我也不能确定,但有九成以上是灵吸怪主脑。”雷斯林没有把话说死,总不能说这是自己从预言术里看到的信息吧。 „illithid MainBrain!” “灵吸怪主脑！” The teammates the first time are heard that this lifeform, does not understand Renn wants its demonic soul to do. 队友们都是第一次听说这种生物,不明白雷恩要它的魔魂干什么。 „You are having the idea of illithid MainBrain unexpectedly.” Qilué is accidental/surprised, obviously she knows that illithid MainBrain is anything, shakes the head saying: „MainBrain is the core of illithid society, is controlling the activity of entire community, controls the illithid social class and promotion. You want to obtain MainBrain demonic soul, must facing the attacks of all illithid it controls, do you know dangerously?” “你竟然在打灵吸怪主脑的主意。”葵露非常意外,显然她知道灵吸怪主脑是什么东西,摇头道:“主脑是灵吸怪社会的核心,控制着整个群体的活动,把控灵吸怪的阶级与晋升。你想得到主脑的魔魂,就要面对它所控制的所有灵吸怪的攻击,你知道有多危险吗？” „I know.” Reislin nods. “我知道。”雷斯林点了点头。 Qilué sees him not to change the mind the meaning, reminded again: „In the illithid city may have saint level Spellcaster, these Mental Warlock strengths are as good as Archmage.” 葵露见他没有改变主意的意思,再次提醒道:“灵吸怪城市里可能会有圣阶施法者,那些心灵术士的实力不亚于大法师。” Reislin understands that her good intention, „I will carefully handle affairs, will not make everyone take risk, at crucial moment is faced by me.” 雷斯林明白她的好意,“我会谨慎行事,不会让大家冒险,关键时候由我自己一个人面对。” „Your one person?” Qilué is taking a look at him up and down. “你一个人？”葵露上下打量着他。 Reislin said lightly: „I have will of truth.” 雷斯林淡淡说道:“我拥有真理意志。” Qilué look stiff, immediately shakes the head suddenly, „no wonder you are so confident, will of truth truly is the mental spells difficult adversary, I felt relieved, walks.” 葵露的神色僵硬了一下,随即恍然摇头,“难怪你这么有信心,真理意志确实是心灵法术的克星,那我就放心了,走吧。” The people are the puzzled her meaning. 众人都是不解她的意思。 „Since arrived around Eleanor, I followed you.” Qilué frank smiled one, „just, I have been very curious to the illithid city, experiences taking this opportunity.” “既然都到伊莱恩托附近了,我就跟你们走一趟。”葵露爽朗的笑了一声,“刚好,我一直对灵吸怪的城市很好奇,借着这个机会见识一下。” Yizit and the others were quite happy, there is a Archmage peer, without doubt is much safer. 伊兹特等人极为高兴,有一位大法师同行,无疑要安全得多。 Reislin immediately also fully-confident. 雷斯林顿时也信心百倍。 By the Qilué strength, these time the goal of gaining illithid MainBrain was steady! 以葵露的实力,这一次获取灵吸怪主脑的目标稳了！
