To the Cold Frost protectors, is doomed tonight is the night of difficult dormancy. 对寒霜的保护者们而言,今夜注定是个难眠的夜晚。 The dark clouds that Dagger Island covers condense still at the top of the head, Haiyan wreckage of strange return still paced back and forth in the sea level outside harbor, but in this crucial point, that lingered the Sea Mist fleets of innumerable fearful legend to arrive around City-State. 匕首岛笼罩的阴云尚在头顶凝聚,诡异回归的“海燕号”残骸仍在港口之外的海面上徘徊,而就在这个节骨眼上,那萦绕着无数可怕传说的海雾舰队又来到了城邦附近。 The Undead fleet of carrying/sustaining curse has completed building up, stays in the offshore edge silent, no one knows their purposes in coming, no one knows their next to do. 承载诅咒的不死人舰队已经完成集结,沉默地停留在近海边缘,无人知晓他们的来意,无人知晓他们下一步想干什么。 Port district defense commander-in-chief Lister only rested at the midnight slightly was less than one hour, then appeared in again directing the office, he saw here several other commanders who similarly knit the eyebrows, as well as just a confidential secretary who caught up with from the city hall. 港区防务总指挥官李斯特只在午夜稍微休息了不到一个小时,便再度出现在指挥办公室内,他在这里见到了同样愁眉紧锁的另外几位指挥官,以及刚刚从市政厅赶来的一位机要秘书。 Wears the blue practicing moral culture/slim fit coat, to wear the gold-rimmed eyeglasses, to seem like 30 over secretary gentlemen to see Lister, immediately then stands up from the chair, the forehead brings the thin perspiration faintly: „Colonel mister, Magistrate hopes that knows the most accurate information —— Sea Mist fleet does have the possibility of most newly launching the attack?” 身穿蓝色修身外套、戴着金丝眼镜、看上去三十出头的秘书先生一见到李斯特,立刻便从椅子上站起身来,额头隐隐带着细汗:“上校先生,执政官希望知道最新最准确的情报——海雾舰队到底有没有发动进攻的可能？” „If Magistrate only wants this answer , in the past half a century had every day,” Lister took out the stimulation volatile oil, depended upon the intense drug efficacy of volatile oil to boost the spirit, simultaneously looked at confidential secretary one eyes, „the Sea Mist fleet was not —— that today has it continuously, Cold Frost and that ‚Steel General’ between has never had what peace agreement.” “如果执政官只想要这个答案,那就是有,过去的半个世纪里每天都有,”李斯特取出提神精油,依靠着精油的强烈药效提振起精神,同时看了机要秘书一眼,“海雾舰队并不是今天才存在的——它一直都在,寒霜和那位‘钢铁中将’之间从来没有过什么和平协定。” The mood of commander-in-chief is obviously poor, the confidential secretary also realized the own issue is insignificant, therefore changes a view immediately: „How many do we have to prepare?” 总指挥官的情绪显然不怎么好,机要秘书也意识到了自己的问题并无意义,于是立刻换了个说法:“我们有多少准备？” „All Anfang artilleries have been in the fight disposition, the fleet that General Galeton leads northern and northwest flank is constructing the interception belt/bring in the Sea Mist fleet, their fuel is sufficient, because ammunition prepared —— although we petrel number event just lost a brave rear admiral, the Cold Frost navy still to protect City-State was fully prepared,” the Lister expression said seriously, „a more detailed information, my higher authority should report to the city hall.” “所有岸防炮都已处于战斗配置,盖尔顿将军率领的舰队正在海雾舰队北部和西北侧翼构筑拦截带,他们燃料充足,弹药齐备——尽管我们因为海燕号事件刚刚失去一位骁勇善战的海军少将,寒霜海军仍为守护城邦做好了一切准备,”李斯特表情郑重地说道,“更详细的情报,我的上级应该已经向市政厅汇报过了。” Is saying, he while makes the vision cross the present confidential secretary, falls on several subordinates in not far away: „What situation that side the Sea Mist fleet the present is? What abnormal movement has?” 一边说着,他一边让目光越过眼前的机要秘书,落在不远处的几名部下身上:“海雾舰队那边现在是什么情况？有什么异常动作？” A commander stands immediately: „Yes, Senior official, some not right place, you should come to see this.” 一名指挥官立刻站了起来:“是,长官,有些不对劲的地方,您应该来看看这个。” Lister one hear, the brow wrinkles immediately slightly, he moves toward the room central long table quickly, arrived at one just to deliver before here information. 李斯特一听,眉头顿时微微皱起,他快步走向房间中央的长桌,来到一份刚刚送至此处的情报前。 „What thing is this?” “这是什么东西？” Looks draws the document of full marked symbol at present, this port district commander is somewhat stunned. 看着眼前画满标记符号的文件,这位港区指挥官有些错愕。 „Is the light signal,” the subordinate commander who before opened the mouth said that „light signal from Sea Mist.” “是灯光信号,”之前开口的下级指挥官说道,“来自海雾号的灯光信号。” Some Lister expression delay, effect some of stimulation volatile oil do not seem of use suddenly, he looks at these dazzling stop marks and side at sixes and sevens illustration, felt a little to have a dizzy spell unexpectedly, crosses to whisper good long while: „What ghost...... the Sea Mist fleet is using a very recent light signal probably? Is using some type to code the transmission information classically?” 李斯特表情有些呆滞,提神精油的效果似乎突然有些不顶用了,他看着那些令人眼花缭乱的停顿标记和旁边乱七八糟的注解,竟感觉有点头晕目眩,过了好半天才嘀咕起来:“什么鬼……海雾舰队好像在用一种很新的灯光信号？还是在用某种古典编码传递信息？” He raised the head suddenly, looks to the own subordinate: „Where is military adviser at?” 他猛然抬起头,看向自己的部下:“军事顾问在哪？” „They study these things in the next room, signal scientist and cryptology expert who several were just called, expert who in addition several research classical navy history and study the Undead phenomenon on road.” “他们在隔壁房间研究这些东西,还有好几个刚刚被召集起来的信号学家和密码学专家,另外还有几位研究古典海军史和研究不死人现象的专家在路上。” Lister pursing the lips lip , is also staring at these at sixes and sevens symbolic label several seconds of types , after stubbornly raised the head, looks to that whole face anxiety confidential secretary mister. 李斯特抿了抿嘴唇,又死死地盯着那些乱七八糟的符号标记几秒种后才抬起头,看向那位正满脸愁苦的机要秘书先生。 „Tonight no one want to rest.” “今天晚上谁也别想睡了。” „I feel am also, colonel mister.” “我觉得也是,上校先生。” ...... …… Duncan rested yesterday evening very well. 邓肯昨天晚上睡得很好。 Although mosts of the time his main body not need sleep, but the appropriate rest still helped him maintain the abundant energy, and reduces controls burden —— that many bodies bring simultaneously although to him, this burden actually not tremendous influence. 虽然大部分时候他的本体都不怎么需要睡眠,但适当的休息仍有助于他维持充沛的精力,并减轻同时控制多个躯体带来的负担——尽管对他而言,这点负担其实也没多大影响。 But he likes maintaining this work and rest custom like normal human. 可他喜欢维持这种像正常人类一样的作息习惯。 The snow of out of the window had stopped, at least stopped temporarily, does not know how long sunny sky can maintain to cover sky over the city, Vision 001 is gradually turning toward the high spot climb of sky from the urban fringe, but in that wheel magnificent sun edge, the dual rune light golden splendor appears forever glorious. 窗外的雪已经停了,至少暂时停了,不知能维持多久的晴朗天空正笼罩在城市上空,异象001正从城市边缘逐渐向着天空的高点爬升,而在那轮辉煌日轮边缘,双重符文的淡淡金辉显得光芒万丈。 On rune link the small section of defect still, and naked eye obvious. 符文环上缺失的一小段仍在,而且肉眼可见。 Duncan stands before the window, stared at that to lack a sun rune link of scrap to look for several seconds, later took back the line of sight, moved a shoulder. 邓肯站在窗前,盯着那缺了一小块的日轮符文环看了几秒钟,随后收回视线,活动了一下肩膀。 He arrives at first floor. 他来到一楼。 Alice has made the breakfast, simple toasted bread, omelette and vegetables volume, although is not sumptuously, but can also see that Miss puppet craftsmanship gradually is truly striving, Vanna and Morris are sitting at the table dine, after seeing Duncan appears, they then stand up. 爱丽丝已经做好了早餐,简单的烤面包片、煎蛋和蔬菜卷虽然算不上丰盛,但也能看出人偶小姐的手艺确实是在逐渐精进,凡娜和莫里斯正坐在餐桌旁用餐,看到邓肯出现之后,他们便站起身来。 „You eat your, does not need to care about me.” Duncan beckons with the hand to them. “你们吃你们的,不必在意我。”邓肯对他们摆了摆手。 The breakfast is good, what a pity he this body not has the good fortune to enjoy something at present. 早餐不错,可惜他目前这具身体无福消受。 Although is „temporarily uses body”, the body and that physical state in Pland that Antique Store but he uses at present is actually entirely different, although after that body of Pland is also dies takes over control, but because damages slightly, and takes over control promptly, the present condition is actually not different from the living person, but he...... had actually lost most intrinsic functions in the body of Cold Frost. 虽然都是“暂用躯壳”,但他目前所用的这具躯壳和普兰德古董店中的那副身体情况其实截然不同,普兰德的那具身体虽然也是死后接管,但由于损伤轻微且接管及时,现在的状态其实跟活人没什么两样,而他在寒霜的这具身体……却已经失去了大部分的内在机能。 This is more like one by the skeleton that the mysterious strength actuates, from nature, even is close to „corpse” compared with Tyrian these Undead hand/subordinate. 这更像是一具被神秘力量驱动的尸骸,从性质上,甚至比提瑞安手下的那些不死人更接近“尸体”。 Duncan oneself does not talk clearly this inside principle is anything, but this world strange matter are too really many, he has also seen through. 邓肯自己都说不清这里面的原理到底是什么,但这个世界稀奇古怪的事情实在太多,他也早就看开了。 Evil Sect on Evil Sect, in any case oneself in this world it is biggest Evil Sect. 邪门就邪门吧,反正自己在这个世界上本身就是个最大的邪门。 „By sofa has latest newspaper,” by table Morris says, „you can have a look, to have the news that you are interested.” “沙发旁有一份最新的报纸,”餐桌旁的莫里斯开口说道,“您可以看看,有您感兴趣的新闻。” „?” Duncan takes a step to arrive by the sofa, saw the morning paper —— newspaper that just sent in the morning was still sending out the slight printing ink flavor, neat that several newspaper repeats put, he takes up these newspapers, on the sofa sits down while opens conveniently, and quick then found the news content that Morris mentioned. “哦？”邓肯迈步来到沙发旁,看到了那份早上刚刚送来的晨报——报纸仍然散发着轻微的油墨味道,几张报纸迭放的整整齐齐,他拿起那些报纸,一边在沙发上坐下一边随手翻开,并且很快便找到了莫里斯提到的新闻内容。 Alice dá dá dá walked, finds out the head to read the newspaper in Duncan from the sofa curiously: „What on this title writes is assorted ——” 爱丽丝哒哒哒地走了过来,从沙发后面探出脑袋好奇地看着邓肯手里的报纸:“这上面标题写的是什——” „Ka” “咔哒” A head of plump then fell in the Duncan newspaper, tumbled following the newspaper on his arm. 一个圆滚滚的脑袋便掉在了邓肯的报纸上,又顺着报纸滚落在他胳膊上。 The head tumbles, Alice lies on one's back with Duncan face-to-face, the eye is winking innocently: „Rescues...... rescues...... rescues......” 脑袋翻滚过来,爱丽丝仰面朝天跟邓肯面对面,眼睛无辜地眨着:“救……救……救……” „Can you rise a memory?” Duncan sighed, almost accept fate took the head of Alice, reorganized her to wear outside, with the rope band fixed golden color wig and inside silver hair, lifted handle attractive head to press to return to the neck of gothic puppet, „other, Doggy can read the newspaper, didn't a you title look clearly?” “你能不能涨点记性？”邓肯叹了口气,几乎认命般地把爱丽丝的脑袋拿起来,整理了一下她戴在外面、用绳箍固定的金色假发和里面的银色头发,又抬手把这漂亮的头颅摁回到哥特人偶的脖子上,“另外,阿狗都能看报纸了,伱连个标题都看不明白？” Alice is thrown into confusion straightens up the head while whispered embarrassed: „Actually only then 45 words look do not understand......” 爱丽丝一边手忙脚乱地扶正脑袋一边不好意思地嘀咕:“其实只有四五个单词看不明白……” Duncan stared her one eyes immediately: „Title altogether eight words!” 邓肯顿时瞪了她一眼:“标题一共八个单词！” Illiterate person puppet: „...... ” 文盲人偶:“……嘿嘿。” „The warning notice from city hall,” Duncan sighed, felt that gruff earnest really makes the matter that one felt exhausted physically and mentally with this, then put out a hand to point at the word on newspaper, read to the Alice hear, „informed the resident, reduced goes out the —— following content is to tell the Cold Frost resident, in the near future do not approach the coastal region, reduced gathers at the public road, prepared to coordinate the public security officer or Guardian inspection at any time, as well as enhanced the curfew rank, now and has the special industry besides the Church personnel at night the personnel of general permit, no one can leave home in the evening.” “是来自市政厅的警告通知,”邓肯叹了口气,感觉跟这个憨憨较真实在是令人身心俱疲的事情,便伸手指着报纸上的词,一个一个地念给爱丽丝听,“敬告市民,减少外出——下面的内容是告诉寒霜居民,近期不要靠近海岸区域,减少在公共道路聚集,随时准备配合治安官或守卫者的检查,以及提高了宵禁等级,现在除了教会人员和持有特种行业夜间通行许可证的人员之外,谁也不能在晚上离开家门了。” Alice circles from the sofa to Duncan side sits down, collects to look curiously the writing on newspaper while follows the finger rotation head of Duncan, after waiting to read off one, raised the head curiously: „What meaning is?” 爱丽丝从沙发旁边绕到邓肯身旁坐下,一边好奇地凑过去看着报纸上的文字一边跟着邓肯的手指转动脑袋,等读完一遍之后才好奇地抬起头:“是什么意思？” „Meaning is, the pressure that Tyrian gives arrived,” Duncan said lightly, „then if nothing unexpected happens, the Cold Frost external communication will block, as the matter stands we then do not need to worry that this City-State pollution overflow, Annihilationists that in the city hides is unable again and contact, on the other hand, I delivered in the past ‚report’ looked like also stimulates the Church aspect, higher curfew rank and strict general ban mean that a stricter heresy will investigate —— many Annihilationists to give oneself away.” “意思是,提瑞安给的压力到位了,”邓肯淡淡说道,“接下来如无意外,寒霜的对外交通将封锁,这样一来我们便不必担心这座城邦的污染外溢,城内躲藏的湮灭教徒也将无法再和外界联络,另一方面,我送过去的‘举报信’看来也刺激到了教会方面,更高的宵禁等级和严格的通行禁令意味着更严密的异端排查——更多的湮灭教徒会露出马脚。” „Then...... was the matter solved?” Alice opens the eye surprisedly, „will unprincipled person be grasped?” “然后……事情就解决了？”爱丽丝惊讶地睁大眼睛,“坏人会都被抓起来吗？” „Possibly so to be how simple,” Duncan shrugs, „grasps several Annihilationists is only a start, as more and more Annihilationists are caught, between they and deep seas construct the method of relation then to expose, at this time, the issue was dug truly.” “怎么可能那么简单,”邓肯耸了耸肩,“抓几个湮灭教徒只是个开始,但随着越来越多的湮灭教徒落网,他们跟深海之间构筑联系的方法便有可能暴露出来,这时候,问题才算是真正被挖出来。” Is saying, he while folds the newspaper, places the one side. 一边说着,他一边将报纸折好,放在一旁。 On this remaining contents he sketchy, has no thing that is worth paying attention. 这上面剩下的内容他粗略过了一遍,已经没有什么值得关注的东西了。 „That...... do we then do?” Alice asked in side. “那……咱们接下来干什么啊？”爱丽丝在旁边问道。 „Since the Cold Frost authority were busy, we also went out to take a walk,” Duncan stood up, looks to the restaurant direction, „finished eating the food to have gate —— we informer ’ to greet with Tyrian one hand/subordinate ‚.” “既然寒霜当局忙起来了,我们也出去走动走动,”邓肯站起身,看向餐厅方向,“吃完饭出趟门——我们跟提瑞安手下的一位‘线人’打个招呼。”
