Bringsto be anxiousandcurious, Agathais sizing upthisplacesecretly.
带着紧张与好奇,阿加莎偷偷打量着这个地方。
It seems like only an ordinaryhouse, the furnitureslightlyis mostly obsolete, butwas tidied upverycleanly, the air in room is also very fresh, perhapssome time agoopened a windowthrough the wind, the kitchendirectionbroadcasts the sound that boils water, soundsseems like the sound that the teacooks a meal.
看上去只是一所普普通通的住宅,家具大多略显陈旧,但被收拾得很干净,房间里的空气也很清新,或许不久前才开窗通过风,厨房方向传来烧水的声音,听上去像是茶炊的动静。Thisdoes not seem likeone„to arrive”, itcompleteisresidents.
这不像是一个“降临地”,它完完全全就是一座民宅。Naturally, Agathaknowshow manydays ago from the beginningheretrulyis onlyordinaryhouse——, italsowaits for the form of rented houseto be accommodated alongsidein the residentialhelpcenterregistration book, sheis thinking......, since an indescribablevisitorchosetookhereas the owntemporaryresidence, thatherehow manyshould a littleunique element?
当然,阿加莎一开始就知道这里原本确实就只是一座普通房屋——直到几天前,它还以待出租房屋的形式被挂靠在市民帮助中心的登记簿中,她只是想着……既然一位不可名状的访客选择了把这里作为自己的临时居所,那这里多少是不是应该有点特殊之处?Butheranythinghad not discovered.
但她什么都没发现。„Drinks tea? Cancometo order the coffee?”Duncanarrived atsideAgatha, spoke thoughtlesslyto ask.
“喝茶吗?还是要来点咖啡?”邓肯来到了阿加莎身旁,随口问道。Agathaawakenssuddenly, is astonishedlooksto sitinoppositeDuncan, respondedto realizewhat the opposite partysaidwaswhatmeaning, rushedto beckon with the hand: „...... Does not thank, Iam not thirsty.”阿加莎猛然间惊醒,讶异地看着坐在对面的邓肯,反应了一下才意识到对方说的是什么意思,赶忙摆了摆手:“不……谢谢,我不渴。”„Does not needto be cautious, likeoneself,”Duncansmiles, sits downon the Agathaoppositesofa, the attitudeopens the mouthvery muchamiably, „makesmethink......, ifhas not guessed that wrong, youshouldbethisCity-StateGatekeeper? At this timevisitedon own initiative, was unlikelyisordinaryGuardian.”
“不必拘谨,就像在自己家一样,”邓肯笑了笑,在阿加莎对面的沙发上坐下,态度很随和地开口,“让我想想……如果没猜错的话,你应该就是这座城邦的守门人?这时候主动登门的,不大可能是普通的守卫者吧。”„GatekeeperAgatha,”Agathanodsimmediately, makesoneselfseemtranquilas far as possible, „youknow that Iwill come?”
“守门人阿加莎,”阿加莎立刻点了点头,尽量让自己显得平静,“您知道我会来?”„Youwill definitely come, eitherisotherChurchhigh level,”Duncansaidlightly,„Anniewill tellthatGravekeepermymatter, butthatGravekeeperwill report the situationtoChurch, I only need wait forinthis, thencanseeabovewiththisCity-StateChurchhigh level.”
“你肯定会来的,要么就是别的教会高层,”邓肯淡淡说道,“安妮会把我的事情告诉那位守墓人,而那位守墓人会把情况上报给教会,我只需在此等待,便可以与这座城邦的教会高层见上面了。”Agathaadjusted a sitting postureslightly, is gazing at the presenttall and strongformwith a more seriousattitude: „Iwantto know...... yourrealgoal. Whoyouare, whyalsoarrives atCold Frost?”阿加莎稍微调整了一下坐姿,以一种更加郑重的态度注视着眼前的魁梧身影:“我想知道……您真实的目的。您到底是谁,又是为何来到寒霜?”„Haven't Isaid?”Duncanraised the eyebrow, „forissue—— that to solveherehasIthinksoneselfhas writteninthatreportwas very clear.”
“我没有说过吗?”邓肯扬了扬眉毛,“是为了解决这里发生的问题——我以为自己在那封举报信里已经写的很明白了。”Agathaopens mouth, obviously is a little not goodto acceptsuchsimpleanswer, crossed for 2-3secondsto hesitate the opens the mouth: „Really...... is onlythis?”阿加莎张了张嘴,显然还是有点不好接受这么个简单的答案,过了2-3秒才迟疑着开口:“真的……就只是这样?”„Ifyouareneed a darkerreasonand a more complexconspiracywill think that this matteris reasonableenough, Icanimpromptu composition,”Duncanspeak thoughtlessly saying that „whichstyleyoudoes like? World does Apocalypseruleto conquer?”
“如果你是需要一个更黑暗的理由和一个更复杂的阴谋才会觉得此事足够合理,那我可以现编一个,”邓肯随口说道,“伱喜欢哪种风格?世界末日还是君临征服?”
The Agathabodynaked eyethentied tightobviously.阿加莎身体肉眼可见便紧绷起来了。„cough, youfrightenedher,”VannacoughcoughedtwoinDuncansuddenlybehind, „thisMissGatekeeperwill take seriously.”
“咳,您吓到她了,”凡娜突然在邓肯身后咳嗽了两声,“这位守门人小姐会当真的。”„Meeting?” The Duncandoubtsturn headslightly, „Ithinkthisjokeveryobviously......”
“会吗?”邓肯疑惑地微微回头,“我以为这个玩笑挺明显的……”„According tomyexperience, the meeting,”Vannasighedreluctantly, „madethisline, the nerveis always tying tight, may be unable to crack a joke.”
“根据我的经验,会,”凡娜无奈地叹了口气,“做这行的,神经总是紧绷着,可开不得玩笑。”Duncandoes not knowsuddenlysaidanything, Agathahad doubtslooks atthatstatureextremelybigfemale, whydid not know, afterenteringroomshealwaysthought that the opposite partyvisionfellononeselfunintentionally,...... have a relishis observinganythingto resembleprobably.邓肯一时间不知道说什么了,阿加莎则疑惑地看着那位身材极为高大的女性,不知为何,从进屋之后她就总觉得对方目光有意无意地落在自己身上,就好像……在饶有兴致地观察些什么似的。Howeverthisis unimportant, more importantlysheconfirmedpresentHigher Beingcracks a joke the ——badandscaryjokewithoneself.
不过这不重要,重要的是她确认了眼前的上位存在只是跟自己开了个玩笑——恶劣又吓人的玩笑。„Pleaseforgivemysensitivity,”Agathasaidsincerely,„abnormal in City-Stateeven morewas recently serious, everyone'snerveis tying tight, Ievenoncesuspected......”
“请原谅我的敏感,”阿加莎诚恳地说道,“最近城邦中的异常愈发严重,所有人的神经都紧绷着,我甚至一度怀疑……”Herfollowingwordshesitatehave not been saying, Duncangoesactuallyfamiliar and easy: „Oncesuspectedonme? Do not be anxious, thisis very reasonable, the time that after allIhaveis just right, moreover arrived here for the first time thenand‚sham’deals withAnnihilationists.”
她后面的话犹豫着没说出口,邓肯倒是轻车熟路地接了下去:“一度怀疑到我头上?别紧张,这很合理,毕竟我出现的时机恰到好处,而且第一次来到这里便跟湮灭教徒和‘赝品’打了交道。”Agathahas not spoken, butseemssomewhatawkward.阿加莎没有吭声,只是显得有些尴尬。„Iwantto know that whatyourinvestigationshaveto progress,”Duncanhas not cared aboutopposite party'sresponse, butis saying, „began to materialize?”
“我想知道你们的调查都有什么进展,”邓肯没在意对方的反应,只是自顾自说着,“有眉目了吗?”Agathahesitant, does not knowshould at presentthisoriginto becomepuzzle„visitor”disclosedtoo the Cold Frostinternalinformation, butsheconsidereda moment laterwhileopens the mouth: „ Afterobtainingyourwarning, wetrulycaughtsomeAnnihilationists, but has almost not obtainedeffectiveinformation——theseto be extremely tenaciouswithheresymind of Nether Demondeepparagenesis, andofteninfinalmomentchoiceself-destroying, a fewcaptured aliveis the edgeroles, does not know the plan the complete picture......阿加莎犹豫了一下,不知道该不该跟眼前这来历成谜的“访客”透露太多寒霜内部的情报,但片刻之后她还是一边斟酌一边开口:“在得到您的示警之后,我们确实抓到了一些湮灭教徒,但几乎没有得到有效的情报——那些与幽邃恶魔深度共生的异端心智极其坚韧,且往往会在最后关头选择自灭,少数被活捉的则都是边缘角色,根本不知道计划的全貌……„Until now, wealso can only determine the replicaphenomenon that in the cityfrequentlyhasistheseheresiesis truly playing tricks, moreovertheytrulyconstructedhidingin the Cold Frostcity and hugelair, may...... stillnot have the clueas forthislairconcreteposition.”
“直到现在,我们也只能确定城内频繁出现的复制品现象确实是那些异端在捣鬼,而且他们确实在寒霜城内建造了一个隐蔽且庞大的巢穴,可至于这个巢穴具体的位置……仍旧毫无头绪。”Speaking ofthis, Agathastopped, continues saying: „Dagger Island that mentionedinthatletter/believesas foryouwhat...... was more discomforting, ithas vanished.”
说到这,阿加莎停顿了一下,又继续说道:“至于您在那封信中提到的匕首岛……更令人不安的是,它已经消失了。”„Iknow.”Duncansaidlightly.
“我知道。”邓肯淡淡说道。„Have youknown?”SomeAgathaaccidents/surprisesopen the mouth, „thisnewsshouldalsoblock......”
“您已知晓?”阿加莎有些意外地开口,“这个消息应该还封锁着……”
The Duncantoneis indifferent: „I have the owninformation cueinmortal world, even if not leaveCity-State, Istillknowonsomeopen seas the matter.”邓肯语气淡然:“我在尘世也有自己的情报渠道,即使不离开城邦,我也知道一些外海上发生的事情。”
The information cueisTyrian——Dagger Islandis certainly in front ofSea Mistfleetto vanishafter all, Tyrianthissituationfirstwill naturally report that givesVanished.
情报渠道当然是提瑞安——毕竟匕首岛就是当着海雾舰队的面消失的,提瑞安自然会把这情况第一时间报告给失乡号。Even but if the earliest possible timeknowsthisshockingnews, Duncanstill can only followto shock——healsoto think that does not understandhow that bigislandisvanishesbaseless.
可即便第一时间知道了这个令人震惊的消息,邓肯也只能是跟着震惊一下——他也想不明白那么大一座岛是怎么就凭空消失掉的。From the situation of Tyriantransmission, the disappearanceprocess of thatislandis not the submersion, butwas more like the directmeltingin the sea water, and before itvanished, has had the continuallarge explosion, seemed like the people on islandto start anything ——butin addition, did not havemoreinformation.
从提瑞安传达的情况来看,那座岛的消失过程并非沉没,而更像是直接融化在了海水中,且其消失之前发生过连续的大爆炸,很像是岛上的人启动了什么东西——但除此之外,没有更多情报。
The informationis scarce, the disappearancewaywas strange, vanisheslaterhas not remainedanyclue and trace, Dagger Islandturned intoanotherbiggerriddlefrom a riddle, no oneknows that thereexactlyhadanything, no oneknows where thatislandwent.
情报稀缺,消失方式过于离奇,消失之后没有残留任何线索和痕迹,匕首岛从一个谜团变成了另一个更大的谜团,没有人知道那里到底发生了什么,更没人知道那座岛去了什么地方。„Youknow where Dagger Islanddid go?” The Agathasoundinterrupted the thinking of Duncan, thisCity-StateGatekeeperraised the head, the visionlookssincerely,„youknowwhatitdid have?”
“您知道匕首岛去了什么地方吗?”阿加莎的声音打断了邓肯的思索,这位城邦守门人抬起头,目光诚挚地看过来,“您知道它发生了什么吗?”Duncanthinks,felt, ifdirectlyacknowledged that oneselfalsodeliberately considereddoes not wantto understand may a little affect the image, thereforehesitated, puts out a handto aim at the under foot.邓肯想了想,觉得要是直接承认自己也寻思了一宿都没想明白可能会有点影响形象,于是沉吟了一下,伸手指向脚下。„Under?”Agathagawked, „you mean, Dagger Islandtrulyissinks to the sea......, butthenwitnessingreport said that insea levelnotvortexphenomenon of islandssubmersionproduction......”
“下方?”阿加莎愣了一下,“您的意思是,匕首岛确实是沉入海中……但当时的目击报告说,海面上并无岛屿沉没生成的旋涡现象……”WhereDuncanknows how to replyhow——hewas curious that bigislandnot to havebaseless!邓肯哪知道怎么回答——他还好奇那么大一座岛怎么就凭空没了呢!Hecontinuesto put out a hand, is pointing at the under foot.
他就继续伸着手,指着脚下。„Yousaidisn'tDagger Island...... is the cluein the under foot?”Agathaas ifresponded,butalmost the flash, shethenrecalledoneselfrecent and bishopIvan'sconversation, recalledrelatedundergrounddeep place„the secondwaterway”matter!
“您说的不是匕首岛……是线索在脚下?”阿加莎似乎反应过来,而几乎一瞬间,她便回忆起了自己最近一次与主教伊凡的交谈,回忆起了有关地下深处“第二水路”的事情!
The city hallandChurchhad searchedentireCity-State, the strictcurfewsystemsandwide scopeinvestigationsgraspmassivehidingheretictheoreticallysufficiently, butcaughtAnnihilationiststhroughoutonly thensuchseveralborderline people...... the firstwaterwayandsubway, managedMichihitoand so onto be able the place of hiding peoplealsoto look, did not have the clue......
市政厅和教会已经搜索了整个城邦,严格的宵禁制度和一次次大范围排查理论上足以抓出大量潜藏的邪教徒,但被抓到的湮灭教徒始终就只有那么几个边缘人物……第一水路、地铁、管道井之类能藏人的地方也都找过了,毫无线索……City-State is so big, if the aboveplacedoes not have the traces of theseheresies, thatalsoonlyhad the secondwaterwaypossibility.城邦就这么大,如果上述地方都没有那些异端的踪影,那也就只剩下第二水路这一个可能性了。Thesecollapsingregions, thesefall into the darkcavern, thesewere polluted the shaft and pipeline that cover...... theytrulyare not perhaps suitablesurvive, but if thatdid helpAnnihilationistsreallysurviveintheseplaces?
那些坍塌区域,那些陷入黑暗的洞穴,那些被污染覆盖的竖井和管道……它们或许确实不适宜生存,但万一那帮湮灭教徒真就在那些地方生存下来了呢?Naturally, searches„the secondwaterway”to plan, butsheneverdaresto confirm that thisis doomedto consume the astonishingsearch operationsto have the significance, butnow, shefinallyfoundexistedto this actionmost powerfulsupport——friendlykind of godexplicitlysaid,looksdownward.
当然,搜索“第二水路”本就在计划中,只是她始终不敢确认这注定消耗惊人的搜索行动到底有没有意义,而现在,她终于找到了对这一行动最有力的支撑——一位友善的类神存在明确表示,就得往下找。„——Iunderstoodso that's how it is, ourdirectionsis right,”Agathastands upsuddenly, in the tonebringssuddenlywithjoyfully, shelookstooppositeDuncan, the attitudebecomesrespectssuddenlyespeciallysincerely, moreoverdeeplybends the waist, „Iunderstood——to thankyourreminder!”
“原来如此——我明白了,我们的方向是对的,”阿加莎突然站起身,语气中带着恍然与喜悦,她看向对面的邓肯,态度突然变得格外诚恳又敬重,而且深深弯下腰,“我懂了——非常感谢您的提醒!”Duncanis maintaining the movement of fingerunder foot, a littlein a dazelooksbandagefemale who thissuddenlyis at present excited.邓肯保持着手指脚下的动作,有点愣神地看着眼前这突然激动起来的绷带女。What did sheunderstand?
她懂什么了?„Westart the nextstepsearchimmediately, thistimewill certainly exhaust the lairroots of theseheresiescontinually,”Agathahad not actually discovered that Duncanin a daze, shewas is only sayingconfidently, andquickthenmustsay goodbye, „thatIdid not loseyourtime—— my timeto disturb, Imustleave.”
“我们会立刻展开下一步的搜索,这次一定会把那些异端的巢穴连根挖掉,”阿加莎却没发现邓肯的愣神,她只是信心十足地说着,并且很快便要告辞,“那我就不耽误您的时间了——恕我此次打扰,我要离开了。”„Eh...... good,”Duncanis half beat behindstands up, the subconsciousnessis saying, „thatyouwalkslowly......”
“额……好,”邓肯慢了半拍才站起身,下意识说着,“那你慢走……”Agathaexpresses gratitude, turns aroundto move toward the entrance, butremembersanythingprobably, suddenlystopped.阿加莎道了谢,转身走向门口,但紧接着又好像想起什么,突然停了下来。Alice that sideis preparingto set outto see offalmosthitsonher.
旁边正准备起身相送的爱丽丝差一点撞在她身上。
The Agathavisionhas sweptAlice, butthissheexcessivelyhas not paid attention to this blondefemale——kind of god who timedoes not have the heartbeat and breathexists, followersomewhatunusualplacenaturallyis very normalmatter, should notmake a fuss about nothing.阿加莎的目光扫过爱丽丝,但这一次她并没有过多关注这位没有心跳和呼吸的金发女子——一位类神存在,身边的追随者有些稀奇之处当然是很正常的事情,不值得大惊小怪的。Shewill shift toDuncan.
她将头转向了邓肯。„Pleaserelax, Iwill tell that ChurchGuardian, somepeoplewill not disturbyou,”Agathasaidveryearnestly,„wantsyouto be ableinCold Frostlifehappy——, ifhas any newsituation, Ipersonallyoriginally.”
“请放心,我会吩咐教会的守卫者们,不会有人来打扰您,”阿加莎十分认真地说道,“希望您能在寒霜生活的愉快——如果有什么新情况,我会亲自来的。”„, That is very certainly good,”Duncansmiled, thisheis actually satisfied, „Itrulydo not hope that somepeopledisturb.”
“啊,那当然很好,”邓肯笑了起来,这他倒是满意的,“我确实不希望有人来打扰。”Agathanods, thisturns aroundto move toward the entranceagain, butjustwalkedtwosteps, sheremembersanythingprobablysuddenly, stopped.阿加莎点点头,这才再次转身走向门口,不过刚走了两步,她又好像突然想起什么,停了下来。„A matter, Ialmostforgot.”ThisGatekeepersomewhatpressedawkwardlyaccording to the frontal eminence, looks atDuncanto say.
“还有件事,我差点忘记了。”这位守门人有些尴尬地按了按额角,看着邓肯说道。Duncanhas the doubts: „?”邓肯带着疑惑:“哦?”Agathahesitant, finallyasked that had letherandmanypeoplepuzzled very longissue: „Aboutyourprevioustimein ’...... the secretnumber that ‚reportendstays behind ‚’, whatmeaning is that? Ourconsciousnessbe please superficial, wedecodedfor a long time, stillcannotunderstandriddletopic that youleft behind.”阿加莎犹豫了一下,终于问出了那个已经让她和许多人都困扰了很久的问题:“关于您上次在那封‘举报信’末尾留下的……‘秘数’,那到底是什么意思?请恕我们智识浅薄,我们破解了许久,仍未能理解您留下的谜题。”Duncan: „......?”邓肯:“……啊?”
