她甚至无法从这封信上感知到任何超凡力量——但在做过简单的几样测试之后,她已经确认了这东西确实出自那位上位超凡之手。In the darkcoffinheard a clothingfricative, the heavy/thickcoffincoveredopenedfinallyslowly, along withunusualincenseaura, was wrapped, as ifmummybodyto set outfrominsideby the bandageslowly.
黑沉沉的棺材里传来了一阵衣物摩擦声,厚重的棺盖终于缓缓打开了,伴随着一股奇特的熏香气息,一具被绷带包裹着、仿佛木乃伊般的躯体从里面缓缓起身。This was Cold FrostCity-StatebishopIvan——hethenlost the completephysiquemanyyears ago because of an accident, but since the Bartokmighty forcelethislifewent on, inwholetime, hemusttreatinponderingsacred hall„spiritcoffin” , when holding the significantSaintmatterwill appearin people's eyes, even so, he was still Cold Frostin historymost popular and bishop of faith.
这便是寒霜城邦的主教伊凡——他在很多年前便因一次事故失去了完整的形体,但巴托克的伟力让他的生命延续至今,在大部分时间,他都要待在冥思圣堂的“灵棺”内,只有在举行重大圣事时才会出现在公众眼中,但即便如此,他仍是寒霜有史以来最受欢迎和信赖的主教。Thisbishopis without a doubtin the achievements and profoundknowledge of transcendentdomain.
这位主教在超凡领域的建树和渊博学识是毋庸置疑的。Hesatin the coffinsets out, received„report that”Agathahanded over, the onlyrevealstared atthatletter/believesto look atfor quite a whileinbandageoutsideleft eye, the whole personsilentfor a long time.
他在棺材里坐起身,接过阿加莎递过来的“举报信”,唯一露在绷带外面的左眼盯着那封信看了半天,整个人沉默许久。Agathacannot bearbreakthissilence: „You......”阿加莎忍不住打破这份沉默:“您……”Archbishop that experienced, has great learningopens the mouthin a muffled voice: „Iagainslowly.”
见多识广、学识渊博的大主教闷声闷气地开口:“我再缓缓。”Agathawaited for a meeting, asked: „Did yourecover consciousness?”阿加莎等了一会,又问道:“您缓过来了吗?”„...... Youconfirmed that isthis?”BishopIvanraised the head, in that onlyslightlyyellowingeyebringspuzzled, „do youhave......”
“……你确认就是这个?”主教伊凡抬起头,那只略微泛黄的眼睛中带着困惑,“你有没有……”„Itseems liketrulyordinary—— when butIattemptthrough the Spirit Worldangle of viewobserves the writing on correspondence, at the scenelost15minutes of memory,”Agathaknows that thisbishopwantsto sayanything, sheseriouslynods, „itis twining the mortal the strength that is inconceivable, thissimplesemblance...... perhapsis only the uniqueinterest of thatvisitor.”
“它看上去确实普普通通——但当我尝试通过灵界视角来观察信函上的文字时,当场失去了十五分钟的记忆,”阿加莎知道这位主教想说什么,她表情严肃地点了点头,“它缠绕着凡人难以想象的力量,这份朴素的外表……或许只是那位访客的独特趣味。”BishopIvansilentmoment, as ifalsoinslow, lateropens the mouthslowly: „Content that inthisletter/believesmentioned...... discomforting, youhad seenthatHaiyan, ifinletter/believesreal, thatpetrelnumberwas only a start, evenout-of-control of Dagger Island was also only a start...... ’ pollution that no matterheretic in city‚elementcaused, no matter the abnormal on returnorDagger Island of Haiyan, allaimed at the deep sea, directionalPlan of Diving in the Abysshalf a century ago.”
伊凡主教沉默片刻,似乎还在缓,随后才慢慢开口:“这封信上提到的内容……令人不安,你已经见到了那艘‘海燕号’,而如果信上所述真实,那海燕号只是个开始,甚至匕首岛的失控也只是个开始……不管是城中的邪教徒还是‘原素’造成的污染,不管是‘海燕号’的回归还是匕首岛上的异常,一切都指向深海,指向半个世纪前的潜渊计划。”„Ihave issued the warningto the city hall, andappliedto pull and readtheseto sealhalf a century ofsecretDang, laterwill also go tochurchlibrary, moreoverIhave arranged the manpower to strengthen the entirecitysearch, seizesheretic that thesehid,”Agatha said that „, butthiswas insufficient, wemustconfirm that at least the Dagger Islandlastpresentiswhatsituation——biggersource of pollutionlooks likeonthatisland.”
“我已向市政厅发出警告,并申请调阅那些封存了半个世纪的秘档,之后还会去教堂图书馆一趟,另外我已经安排人手加强对全城搜索,去抓捕那些躲躲藏藏的邪教徒,”阿加莎说道,“但这还不够,我们起码要确认匕首岛上现在是什么情况——更大的污染源看来就在那座岛上。”BishopIvanslightlymakes the thinking, sighedgently: „Ifallaimed atPlan of Diving in the Abyss...... to appearinCold FrostnearbySea Mistfleetat this momentas if can also explain.”
伊凡主教略作思索,轻轻叹了口气:“如果一切都指向潜渊计划的话……此刻出现在寒霜附近的海雾舰队似乎也可以解释了。”„...... Youbelieve,all thesearepart that Frost Queenplannedin the past?”Agathaknits the brows, „isbecausesheSteel General ’ whatleft behindto ordertothatin the past ‚, therefore the Sea Mistfleetwill appeartoday?”
“……您认为,这一切都是寒霜女王当年计划的一部分?”阿加莎皱了皱眉,“是因为她当年给那位‘钢铁中将’留下了什么命令,所以海雾舰队才会在今日出现?”„Iam indefinite,”BishopIvanshakes the head, latersuddenlylooks up the eye of Agatha, „is Agatha, in the youcognition, what kind ofimageFrost Queen?”
“我不确定,”伊凡主教摇了摇头,随后突然抬头看着阿加莎的眼睛,“阿加莎,在伱的认知中,寒霜女王是个怎样的形象?”Agathahesitant, thinkingwhilesaid: „The greatruler, actuallyin the strengthinvasionbydeep seawas once misledafter the shortmagnificentrule, degenerationisonedangerous‚insaneking’, because ofheracting willfully, terrifying in Cold Frost and deep seamade the contact, even ifherfearfulplanhalf a century, still has neededto be sealedthoroughly, forbidsto be known——byanyaverage personherlifenot onlytragedy, anddanger.”阿加莎犹豫了一下,一边思索一边说道:“一位曾经伟大的统治者,却在短暂的辉煌统治之后被深海中的力量侵染蛊惑,堕落为一位危险的‘疯王’,因为她的一意孤行,寒霜与深海中的恐怖建立了联系,她的可怕计划哪怕过了半个世纪,仍然需要被彻底封存,禁止被任何普通人知晓——她的一生既悲剧,又危险。”„Verystandardanswer——takes the younger generation, there aresomematerials of enoughjurisdictioncontacthalf a century ago, yourlump sumwasveryproper,”BishopIvannods, but a thread of conversationrevolution, „mayyounot experiencethatalltruly.”
“很标准的答案——作为年轻一代,又有足够权限接触半个世纪前的部分资料,你的总结算是很到位了,”伊凡主教点了点头,但紧接着话锋一转,“可你并没有真正经历过那一切。”Agathahas not spoken, butcalmlylooks atpresentArchbishop.阿加莎没有说话,只是静静地看着眼前的大主教。„Ihave experienced——that year, my am 26 years old, are the ordinarybishop in wharfareachapel, do youknow? Thatchapelnext to the Plan of Diving in the Abysstest facility, Ievenoncegavesomesoldiers and military officershas held the ceremony of blessing, afterwardIknow,thesesoldiers and military officersbecause ofmustwith‚submersibles’contact, come to the churchto acceptblessing.”
“我经历过——那一年,我二十六岁,还是码头区小教堂的一名普通主教,你知道吗?那座小教堂就紧挨着潜渊计划的试验场,我甚至曾给一些士兵和军官举行过祝福仪式,后来我才知道,那些士兵和军官是因为要和‘潜水器’接触,才来教堂接受赐福的。”BishopIvanis sayingslowly, hisvoiceis low and drawn out, as ifflows a branchfrom the recollectionriversintrickle, theseremote, cannotto the matter that the average persontold, saidfrom the bandage of thatoverlaplittleon and on.
伊凡主教慢慢说着,他的嗓音低缓,仿佛自回忆的河流中涓涓流淌出一股支流,那些久远的,不能对普通人讲述的事情,一点点从那交迭的绷带下面娓娓道出。„After insurrectionary armybreaks through the palace, relatedPlan of Diving in the Abyssmostmaterialswere sealed, in addition, beheads the scaredeffect that scenesea cliffavalanchecauses, the Plan of Diving in the Abysspertinent datais destroyed7788, thereforeeven if youhave the jurisdictionlike this‚Gatekeeper’, somematerialactuallyalsoshallowest—— that cancontactifItellyounow, actuallyin the pastFrost Queenoncearrived atthatchapelin the previousnight that the City-Stateguardlaunched an attack, andhowmademeholdforherdelivered the spiritceremony...... you to want?”
“起义军攻破宫殿之后,有关潜渊计划的大部分资料都被封存了,再加上之后斩首现场发生的海崖崩塌事件所导致的恐慌效应,潜渊计划的有关资料更是被销毁了个七七八八,所以哪怕是你这样有权限的‘守门人’,能接触到的资料其实也只是其中最粗浅的部分——如果我现在告诉你,其实当年寒霜女王在城邦卫队发难的前一夜就曾来到那座小教堂,并让我为她举行了送灵仪式……你会怎么想?”Agathastaredin a big way the eyesuddenly.阿加莎猛然瞪大了眼睛。
„ Sheis called‚insaneking’——truly, shein the finalseveralmonths of mannerswith‚crazy’really not different, has lost controlin the entireplanthoroughly, every daysomepeoplewere missingin the situation, dyingandgoing crazyalsoconstantlyto advance the project, the ministerhouse arrest that even the closureroyal palace, is also willingto advisefinallygets up, the ordermilitary policeblockade the harbor, seizesthese to flee the Cold Frostperson...... to havetheseactionsinfirst, the followinginsurrectionary armyis then logical, shewas not possibly doomed dead a natural deathin the position of Queenoneself......
“她被称作‘疯王’——确实,她在最后几个月的举止跟‘疯狂’真的没什么两样,在整个计划已经彻底失控,每天都有人失踪、死亡、发疯的情况下还不断推进项目,甚至关闭宫室,把最后还愿意进言的大臣幽闭起来,命令宪兵封锁港口,抓捕那些想要逃离寒霜的人……有这些举动在先,后面的起义军便顺理成章,她注定不可能在自己女王的位置上善终……„But, Istillthinkevensheactuallysimplydoes not have‚crazily’...... herto be very sober, even......”
“可即便如此,我也认为她其实根本没有‘疯狂’过……她很清醒,甚至……”BishopIvanstoppedsuddenly, as ifrecallstheseremotethingsto makehismindbe unable to withstand the load, is possibly seeking for the appropriatelanguageto describeoneselfinthatstrangeness that the past yearsfelt, enough after severalseconds of type, hecontinued saying: „Even, looks likeinentireCity-Stateonlyalso the soberperson.”
伊凡主教突然停了下来,似乎回忆那些久远的事情让他的头脑不堪重负,也可能是在寻找合适的语言来描述自己在当年所感受到的那份诡异,足足几秒种后,他才继续说道:“甚至,就像是整座城邦里唯一还清醒的人。”Agathaalreadybodyleans forward: „Whysaid?”阿加莎不知不觉间已经身体前倾:“为什么这么说?”„Sheenters the church, without the belt/bringanyaccompanies, the lookis limpid, as ifhas understood clearly the owndestiny, before heroneselfarrives at the Bartoksacred image, wasoneselflitincense, thencameto patmyshoulder——likethis.”
“她走进教堂,没有带任何随从,眼神清澈,仿佛早已洞悉自己的命运,她自己来到巴托克的圣像前,为自己点燃了熏香,然后过来拍了拍我的肩膀——就像这样。”BishopIvanlifts the arm, seems returning to original state of half a century ago.
伊凡主教抬起胳膊,仿佛还原着半个世纪前的那一幕。„Shepattedme, said: ‚Awakes, the entirecityalsoopened the eye——to helpmedo a matteronyou, Iwas dying.’”
“她拍了拍我,说:‘醒一醒,全城就你还睁着眼睛了——来帮我做件事,我快死了。’”Agathafelt that the ownbreathsomewhatis suddenly impeded, halfdreampartlyawakes the apneato be the sameprobably, later the nextinstance, shecould not bearput out a handto hold the forehead, felt that the oneselfheartbang bangjumped, shedoes not know that what kind ofresponseshouldmake, afterseveralseconds of silence , can only ask the oneselfmost directconfusion: „Whatmeaning does the entirecityalsoopen the eyeonyou...... these wordsis being?”阿加莎感觉自己的呼吸突然有些不畅,就好像半梦半醒间的呼吸暂停一般,随后下一个瞬间,她忍不住伸手扶了扶额头,感觉自己心脏砰砰直跳,她不知道该做出怎样的反应,在几秒钟的沉默之后,只能问出自己最直接的困惑:“全城就你还睁着眼睛……这句话是什么意思?”„Idid not havedefinitely to understandto the present,”BishopIvansighed, hissoundwas depressedunder the bandagelow and deep, „shemademeawake——butIawake, moreoverafter that shehas not explainedanythingtome, but the instructionmademe...... shelie downfollowing the orderconducton the morguestage, like the dead,...... Iheldtoherlaterdelivered the spiritceremony.”
“我到现在还没完全想明白,”伊凡主教叹了口气,他的声音在绷带下低沉发闷,“她让我醒一醒——但我一直醒着,而且在那之后,她也没有向我解释任何事情,只是吩咐让我遵照命令行事……她躺在了停尸台上,就像死者一样,随后……我给她举行了送灵仪式。”„How does living personholdto deliver the spiritceremony?”Agathais staringunbelievable, „did yourceremony...... reallycomplete?”
“活人怎么举行送灵仪式?”阿加莎难以置信地瞪着眼睛,“你那个仪式……真的完成了?”„Live personcannot certainlyholdto deliverspiritceremony——meto defer toherinstructionto complete the entireflow, naturally, after the ceremonyended, has not hadanything,”BishopIvanshakes the head, „Ithink that the ceremonyis pointless, butFrost Queenhad achieved the owngoalprobably, shesuchleft, departedexplainedmymatterbefore......”
“活人当然不能举行送灵仪式——我只是按照她的吩咐完成了整个流程,理所当然的,仪式结束之后也没发生任何事情,”伊凡主教摇了摇头,“我认为仪式是没有意义的,但寒霜女王好像已经达成了自己的目的,她就那样离开了,离去之前交待我一件事情……”„A matter?”
“一件事情?”„Shemademethatlatematterdo not say, otherwise the insurrectionary armycanwantmylife——absolutely, whenshespokethese words, attacked the arsenalalsoto have the entire24hoursfrom the firstCity-Stateguard.”
“她让我不要把那一晚的事情说出去,否则起义军绝对会要了我的命——在她说这番话的时候,距离第一支城邦卫队袭击军火库还有整整二十四小时。”Agathais silent, how longcrosseddid not know, sheopened the mouthfinallyin a low voice: „Youhave never saidthesetome......”阿加莎沉默下来,过了不知多久,她才终于低声开口:“你从未跟我说过这些……”„Ihave not toldanyone,”BishopIvansaidlightly,„at that timeIwas only a youngbishop.”
“我跟谁也没说过,”伊凡主教淡淡说道,“那时候我只是一个小主教。”„ButyoubecameBishopCity-Stateafterward, no onehas been able, becausepast‚involvement’triedyou, thissecret......”
“但你后来成了城邦主教,已经没有人可以因为当年的‘牵连’审判你了,这个秘密……”„ThissecretIamplanto take into the tomb, whycansay?”BishopIvanraised the head, the muddyyellowingleft eyecalmlyis gazing at the eye of Agatha, „Iknow that thismatterno small matterQueen——has known the action of insurrectionary army, evenaccepted with pleasureto the owndeath, thisfactcanshockmanypeople......, butbesidesshock, itwas not meaningful, Plan of Diving in the Abysswill still be blocked, the City-Statestableorderwas the matter of primary importancetomostresidents, no onewill care that the executedqueenis thinkingfinallyanythingmadeanything, moreoverthere is a more importantreason......”
“这个秘密我是打算带进坟墓的,为什么要说出来呢?”伊凡主教抬起头,浑浊泛黄的左眼静静注视着阿加莎的眼睛,“我知道这件事非同小可——女王早已知晓起义军的行动,甚至对自己的死亡欣然接受,这个事实能震动很多人……但除了本身的震撼性之外,它没有任何意义,潜渊计划仍旧会被封锁,城邦的稳定秩序才是对绝大多数市民而言最重要的事情,没有人会关心一个已经被处死的女王在最后想了什么做了什么,而且还有一个更重要的原因……”BishopIvan the stopmoment, shouted the tonegently.
伊凡主教停顿片刻,轻轻呼了口气。„More importantreason——Plan of Diving in the Abyssfinished, the queenyearsended, allsettle down, at least...... Ihave thoughtover the past 50 years.”
“一个更重要的原因——潜渊计划结束了,女王时代结束了,一切尘埃落定,最起码……过去的50年我一直是这么想的。”
