The following day, Evernight Continent changes constantly. 接下来的日子,永夜大陆风云变幻。 „Dormancy of Behemoth” short peace was completely broken, Evernight Council first issues the mobilization order, dark Army opens to the peripheral region in a steady stream, starts to drive away Human race. The empire in light of this will not be certainly hands tied, rapidly makes to deal, transfers nearby army, launches several field wars with the dark allied armies, has the victory and defeat respectively, the war changes over to gradually refuses to compromise. “巨兽之眠”短暂的和平被彻底打破,永夜议会首先发出动员令,黑暗大军源源开至周边区域,开始驱离人族。帝国当然也不会就此束手,迅速做出应对,调动附近军队,与黑暗联军展开数场大战,各有胜负,战局渐渐转入僵持。 The both sides powerhouse unceasingly slaughters in several thousand kilometers vast region, or wants to drive away the opposite party, or intends to the diversion. At the same time each one sends out small stock elite unit to enter „Dormancy of Behemoth” unceasingly secretly, must intercept the opposite party the team. 双方强者则在数千公里的辽阔区域内不断厮杀,或是想驱离对方,或意在牵制。一边各自不断派出小股精锐部队偷偷进入“巨兽之眠”,同时也要截杀对方的队伍。 But Heavenly Ghost is not willing to give up to final several Far Ancient Essence fragments obviously in light of this, stages a comeback in the both sides war, Iron Curtain has covered centered on „Dormancy of Behemoth” the vast region, simultaneously unceasingly emits avatar, at times launches the attack to the both sides powerhouse, finally the situation turns into the tripartite tangled warfare. 而天鬼显然对最后几块远古精华碎片不肯就此放弃,在双方大战时卷土重来,铁幕覆盖了以“巨兽之眠”为中心的辽阔区域,同时不断放出分身,时时对双方强者发起攻击,最终局势变成三方混战。 In this time, Evernight Council had an important matter. The prediction divined suffer reverse that they vigorously promote, „Dormancy of Behemoth” under that will blow off the powerhouse Origin Force energy, at all is not the wind tunnel, but is the Void Behemoth chaos residual will! 就在此时,永夜议会发生了一件大事。他们大力推动的预言推衍遭受重大挫折,原来“巨兽之眠”下面那会吹散强者原力的能量,根本不是什么风洞,而是虚空巨兽混沌的残留意志！ That first trillion years ago huge existence that falls from the sky, not only the essence is immortal, the will ancient does not extinguish. Evernight numerous are skilled in the divined Grandmasters to knock one's head against the wall in the Void Behemoth will in abundance. Grandmaster Weber caused heavy losses, needs to restore at the time of ten years of idea. About half powerhouse suffers backlash dead directly, other also each one severe wounds. 那头亿万年前陨落的庞然存在,非但精华不朽,就连意志也亘古不灭。永夜一众精于推衍的大师们纷纷在虚空巨兽的意志上碰得头破血流。韦伯大师受到重创,需要以十年计的时间方能恢复。近半强者更是直接遭受反噬而死,余下的也个个重伤。 A prediction strength of Evernight side is seriously battered, instead is surpassed at one fell swoop by the empire. This is not the minor matter, means when later has the comprehensive motion, the motion of dark camp divined situation will be easier to be disturbed by the empire. But when they disturb the empire similar operations, must pay more prices. 永夜一方的预言力量遭受重创,一举被帝国反超。这可不是小事,意味着以后有全面行动时,黑暗阵营推衍大势的行动会更容易被帝国干扰。而他们干扰帝国类似行动时,也要付出更多代价。 But Evernight Council pays so the price, is not does not have to attain. 但永夜议会付出如此代价,也不是全无所获。 They obtained two significant information \; first, to cover in „Dormancy of Behemoth” on „Chaotic Streams of Light” really has the origin, in stone forest canyon does not know that the deep place has a void channel, although the world after channel bad risk, but not necessarily was still fatal. Second, the effect of Void Behemoth will on the powerhouse, the wind tunnel principle, to powerhouse will really have the suppression according to Origin Force of standard rank, the risk that this means that a rank higher powerhouse falls from the sky is bigger, but the rank too low powerhouse will thoroughly be swallowed by the giant beast will. 他们得到了两个重大信息,一是覆盖在“巨兽之眠”上的“虹光乱流”果然另有来源,在石林峡谷的不知深处有一条虚空通道,通道后的世界虽然凶险,但尚不一定致命。二是虚空巨兽意志对强者的影响,果然还是风洞原理,会按照标准等级对强者的原力产生压制,这意味着,等级越高的强者陨落的风险越大,而等级太低的强者又会被巨兽意志彻底吞噬。 Suddenly, Evernight Council is in situation in a dilemma. Although Far Ancient Essence is the good thing, but the resources of duke level, the channel later world does not know that is any strategic place, if therefore falls from the sky too the senior powerhouse, needs to calculate the success and failure well. 一时间,永夜议会处于进退两难的地步。远古精华虽然是好东西,但也不过公爵级的资源而已,通道之后的世界更不知道是什么险地,若因此陨落太多高阶强者,就需要好好计算得失。 This survey result, quick has spread over the high level of Evernight world, but empire also knew naturally. In the Evernight camp, is willing with the empire transaction also has plenty of such people. 这个测算结果,很快就传遍了永夜世界的高层,而帝国一方自然而然也就知道了。在永夜阵营中,愿意和帝国交易的也大有人在。 Meanwhile, innumerable eyes of Evernight side also in looking at empire sound, now some people started to suspect that the Lin Xitang secret returns to the behavior of empire is a fraud, to let Evernight loses the prediction strength. 同时,永夜一方的无数双眼睛也在看着帝国这边的动静,如今已有人开始怀疑林熙棠秘密返回帝国的行为是一场骗局,就是为了让永夜损失预言力量。 However, Great Qin Imperial Capital had many unusual clue. 108 days develop the gentleman to arrive at the imperial capital to enter Heaven's Mysterious Pavilion one after another, since then again have not appeared. Afterward all sorts of rare bird beast of prey, continuously sent in Heaven's Mysterious Pavilion from regional requisition the person condemned to death warriors of Dark Race, all has not to have. 然而紧接着,大秦帝都发生了许多不寻常的端倪。108名天演士陆续到达帝都就悉数进入天机阁,自此之后再也没有出现。随后种种珍禽猛兽,从各地征调的黑暗种族的死囚斗士也被源源不断地送入天机阁,全都有进无出。 Heaven's Mysterious Pavilion situated in imperial capital back side of the mountain, like the giant beast that opens the big mouth, is swallowing the flesh and blood life, forever not will stop rests. 位于帝都后山的天机阁,有如一头张开血盆大口的巨兽,吞噬着血肉生命,永无止歇。 If were on the 7 th, the Heaven's Mysterious Pavilion big jamb started, Lin Xitang of white clothing went out from the pavilion, in the hand was holding side jade slip, gave has stood entire seven days outside the pavilion seven nights of Inner Servant. 如是七日,天机阁大门方开,一身素服的林熙棠自阁内走出,手里持着一方玉简,递给在阁外站了整整七天七夜的一名内侍。 That Inner Servant was old somewhat looks awful, the pair of eyes eyelid sagging, momentarily will as if fall asleep. But when he sees Lin Xitang, in both eyes the fine glow flashes, instantly entire Heaven's Mysterious Pavilion as if shone. 那名内侍已经老得有些不成样子,双眼眼皮下垂,似乎随时都会睡着。但当他看到林熙棠时,双眼中精芒一闪,刹时整个天机阁似乎都亮了一亮。 Saw Lin Xitang to hand over that side jade slip, old Inner Servant made an effort to brush off dust, stretched out one pair to moisten the hand of full age-spots, received cautiously, holds in the palm, asked: „How to handle?” 见林熙棠递来了那方玉简,老内侍用力掸了掸身上灰尘,伸出一双沾满老人斑的手,小心翼翼地接过,捧在手心,问:“如何处置？” Lin Xitang at this moment is the posture of dust, the sound also somewhat is faintly recognizable erratically, resembling is the side flutters from the clouds: „Good fortune does not fail in one's mission, assumes your majesty then.” 林熙棠此刻全是出尘之姿,就连声音亦有些飘渺不定,似是方从云端飘下:“幸不辱命,直呈陛下即可。” Inner Servant said: „Old servant understands, the general felt relieved, may rest first.” 内侍道:“老奴明白,大帅放心,可先去休息。” Lin Xitang also said: „This travels to fear some bad risks, Zhao Changshi is careful.” 林熙棠又道:“此行路上恐怕有些凶险,赵常侍要小心。” Zhao Changshi slow say/way: „Marshal Lin felt relieved, the road old servant in this imperial capital walked for dozens years, but also was insufficient to injure the foot.” 赵常侍缓道:“林帅放心,这帝都的路老奴走了几十年,还不至于伤了脚。” Lin Xitang nodded, goes down long step without consulting anybody, the wind blows his silver hair, looks in the person eyes, really has meaning of the empty vast, as if the next quarter will ride the wind to go. Outside Heaven's Mysterious Pavilion, Thunder Cavalry Guard of guards to entire one-fourth, is ready in full battle array, protects him to go far away. 林熙棠点了点头,径自走下长阶,风吹起他的银发,看在人眼中,竟然有种虚渺之意,仿佛下一刻就会乘风而去。在天机阁外,近卫军的雷骑卫到了整整1,严阵以待,护着他远去。 After Zhao Changshi when Lin Xitang walks, has gotten down the long step, seats in a black passenger vehicle. Another team of Imperial Palace domestic protection openings, go far away. 赵常侍待林熙棠走后,也下了长阶,坐进一辆黑色轿车内。另有一队帝宫内卫开路,一路远去。 The motorcade enters imperial capital inner city Grand Dao, has transferred two curved, drives into a slightly narrow path. Zhao Changshi comes to sit in the back seat, still both hands hold that side jade slip, both eyes are hanging down. 车队进入帝都内城大道,转过两个弯,驶入一条略显狭窄的道路。赵常侍居中坐在后座,依然双手捧着那方玉简,双目低垂。 The motorcade enters the path, the Zhao Changshi ear moves suddenly, raised the head slowly, both eyes open slowly. 车队一开入道路,赵常侍耳朵忽然动了动,缓缓抬头,双目徐徐张开。 Is on off-road vehicle, waits on the guard captain suddenly complexion changes, draws out the gun, shouted: „It is not right! Here was too peaceful! Called the warning, the acceleration, overran!” 为首一辆越野车上,侍卫队长忽然脸色一变,拔出佩枪,喝道:“不对！这里太安静了！鸣警报,加速,冲过去！” His voice has not fallen, suddenly whole body one stiff, forehead were many a blood hole. The bullet not only passes through his head, but also a throat of injection back seat guard, obviously the opposite party inevitably is an ambush expert. Driver of driving frightened, fiercely one dozen of steering wheels, off-road vehicle immediately horizontal. 他话音未落,忽然间全身一僵,眉心处多了一个血洞。子弹不光穿过他的脑袋,还射入后座一名侍卫的咽喉,可见对方必然是一名狙击高手。驾车的司机受惊,猛地一打方向盘,越野车立刻横了过来。 Also is a round of bullet flies, penetrated the off-road vehicle armor plate, then pierced the head of driver. 又是一发子弹飞来,击穿了越野车的装甲钢板,然后洞穿了司机的脑袋。 The ear-piercing alarm sound resounds, the Imperial Palace domestic protection on vehicle gets out in abundance, with the aid of the chassis shield, with the black-clothed person crazy correlation that on the path two sides roof emits. These domestic protection each one are elite, however in the sneak attack person clearly has the expert, several sniper's rifles kill the strength terrifying, almost spear/gun, kills the commanding level military officer 11 points in guard. 刺耳的警报声响起,车上的帝宫内卫纷纷下车,借助车体掩护,与道路两边屋顶上冒出的黑衣人疯狂对射。这些内卫个个都是精锐,然而偷袭人中显然更有高手,几支狙击枪更是杀力恐怖,几乎一枪一个,将侍卫中的统领级军官11点杀。 At this moment, Zhao Changshi instead lowered the car window. The car(riage) barrier property that he rides belongs to the top, the glass may the bombardment of anti- Rank 5 spear/gun. At this time lowered the glass, without doubt in the action of suicide. 就在这时,赵常侍反而降下了车窗玻璃。他所乘的这辆车防护性能属于顶级,玻璃可抗五级枪的轰击。这时降下车窗,无疑于自杀之举。 Really, falls half when the glass, will reveals the Zhao Changshi forehead, an ambush ball comes. 果然,就在玻璃降到一半,堪堪露出赵常侍眉心时,一颗狙击弹就呼啸而来。 Zhao Changshi raising his hand, movement is very slow, however two withered fingers actually in airborne clamp, grips the ambush ball that has shot before the forehead unexpectedly! 赵常侍抬手,动作似是十分缓慢,然而两根干枯的手指却在空中一夹,竟在眉心前夹住了射来的狙击弹！ This ambush ball and sees commonly entirely different, long of bullet palm, is very unexpectedly slender, is heavy enough, just like such as a crossbow bolt. Its penetrating power is greatly strengthened, the front off-road vehicle armor plate is similar to the paper sticks before it, the spear/gun spear/gun pierces. 这颗狙击弹和寻常所见大不相同,弹头竟有一掌之长,十分纤细,却足够沉重,俨然如一枚弩箭。它穿透力极强,前方越野车的装甲钢板在它面前如同纸糊的一样,枪枪洞穿。 Zhao Changshi rubs, this bullet is similar to cooks the hot milk to be cool, was rubbed one group, fell in car(riage) outside area. 赵常侍手一揉,这颗弹头就如同烧热的奶酷,被揉成一团,落到了车外地上。 These black-clothed person visit mutually, more than ten people of suddenly raising tyrannical aura, unexpectedly each one is at least the powerhouses of intermediate title. They clash in abundance to the Zhao Changshi passenger car, other black-clothed person all are the fighting methods of perishing together, does not cover up oneself, goes all out to fire, suppresses counter-attacking of domestic protection firmly. 那些黑衣人互相望望,十余人身上骤然升起强横气息,竟个个都是至少中级爵位的强者。他们纷纷向赵常侍座车冲来,其余黑衣人则全是同归于尽的打法,毫不遮掩自身,拼命射击,将内卫们的反攻牢牢压住。 Zhao Changshi opens the vehicle door calmly, but also has stroked the sleeves, the side goes down from the car(riage). His is holding that side jade slip, draws out from the waist the jade handle short sword, black-clothed person who welcomed to flushing. 赵常侍从容打开车门,还拂了拂衣袖,方从车内走下。他一手托着那方玉简,一手自腰间拔出把玉柄短刀,迎向冲来的黑衣人。 During the people besiege, the Zhao Changshi footsteps are in broken bits, suddenly before treading, withdraws suddenly, only moves in the square inches, in the hand the short sword blade light flashes through each time, splashes inevitably blood light. Is that Count level powerhouse also many by three blades, pours in the Zhao Changshi under foot. 在众人围攻之中,赵常侍脚步细碎,忽然踏前,忽而退后,只在方寸之间移动,手中短刀刀光每次闪过,必然溅起一蓬血光。就连为首那名伯爵级强者也不过多挨三刀,就倒在赵常侍脚下。 In the Zhao Changshi hand steadily was still holding that side jade slip, sneers, said: „One group of black blood bastards, dares to act unruly in the imperial capital!” 赵常侍手中仍然稳稳托着那方玉简,一声冷笑,道:“一群黑血崽子,也敢在帝都撒野！” Putting to death is the person of head, other people also insufficient creates disaster, quick is been clean by City Defense Force killed that the domestic protection and catches up with. The preliminary test status, in this group of assassins already has Dark Race, there is a rebel army, this was almost the past innumerable the standard composition of assassination had in the imperial capital. 诛杀为首之人,其余人等也就不足为患,很快就被内卫和赶来的城防军斩杀干净。初步检验身份,这群刺客中既有黑暗种族,也有叛军,这几乎是以往无数次在帝都发生的刺杀的标准组成。 To this result, Zhao Changshi sneers, if not Lin Xitang reminded beforehand, he was unable to believe, will have the so bold and stupid person, started in the imperial capital kills the bureau, to scheme to seize Heaven's Mysterious. He enters Imperial Palace immediately, on straight does the day palace. 对这个结果,赵常侍只是冷笑一声,若非林熙棠事先提醒,他还不敢相信,真会有如此大胆和愚蠢的人,在帝都发动杀局,以图谋夺天机。他随即进入帝宫,直上乾天殿。 Does the day palace is the side now your majesty in beside the processing government affairs institute of toward meeting. In this moment main hall stage, the mist winds around, color/look azure near black, all covers the stage, writing desk and throne after that all, do not see clearly indistinctly. 乾天殿是方今陛下在朝会之外的处理政务之所。此刻大殿高台上,水雾缭绕,色青近黑,将高台、书案和宝座全掩在其后,一切都隐隐绰绰地,看不清楚。 The throne upper extreme sits a man, the feature actually similarly is dense fog. 宝座上端坐着一个男人,眉目却同样是一片迷雾。 The Zhao Changshi half step arrives under the stage, both hands hold up that side jade slip, said: „Your majesty, Marshal Lin the thing of paying in this.” 赵常侍快步走到高台下,双手将那方玉简举起,道:“陛下,林帅所付之物在此。” In the stage that man does not see the movement, the azure black mist like intelligential, branches out several wisps, circles, congeals a shape of hand, took that side jade slip. 高台上那男人也不见动作,青黑色雾气如有灵性,分出数缕,一个盘旋,凝结出一只手的形状,将那方玉简取了去。 The man has not launched to watch in advance, only asked: „Minister Lin how?” 那男人没有先行展开观看,只问:“林卿如何？” „Marshal Lin all well, advanced to rest.” Zhao Changshi bows to reply: „The old servant returned to Miyaji to meet the small breeze actually.” He explained the tactical situation in a few words, has not added a character unnecessary comment. “林帅一切安好,已先行回去休息。”赵常侍躬身答道:“倒是老奴回宫路上遇到了一点小小风波。”他三言两语把战况说明,没有加一字多余的评说。 The man listened, but told indifferently: „Transmitting orders guards, on that street all houses massacred completely, did not need to examine.” 那男人听了,只是淡然吩咐:“传令近卫军,那条街上所有住家全部杀掉,不用审了。” Zhao Changshi thinks, said: „When old servant passes through, saw absent-minded a household is hanging the Marquis Fengyang family/home emblem.” Marquis Fengyang will certainly not live in that block, possibly is some collateral branch or the multitudious family/home. 赵常侍想了想,道:“老奴经过时,恍惚看到有一户挂着汾阳侯的家徽。”汾阳侯当然不会住在那片街区,可能是某个旁支或庶家。 The man has not spoken. 那男人没有说话。 Zhao Changshi understood his meaning, bows once more, said voluntarily: „At that time a street inhabitant not person came out to assist we. The old servants understood, this passes around your majesty commanding.” 赵常侍已经明白了他的意思,再次躬身下去,自行说:“当时街边住户并无一人出来相助我方。老奴明白了,这就把陛下的谕令传下去。” At that time fought to use origin gun of big might, if on that street nobody gave Dark Race and rebel army provides the convenience, was impossible to achieve is quietly like this ambush. 当时战斗动用了大威力的原力枪,若那条街上没人给黑暗种族和叛军提供便利,是不可能做到这样悄无声息埋伏的。 That street house was extinguished by complete slaughter will possibly have about thousand people, but does not examine the explanation unable to expand again investigates the range. The empire criminal law is stern, to not having being implicated said, whose crime the verification is loses takes on the responsibility by whom. Even if Marquis Fengyang that branch is innocent in this matter, will only fear not over. 那条街住家被全部屠灭可能会有近千人,但不审就说明不会再扩大追究范围。帝国刑法严峻,却向无连坐之说,查实是谁的罪失就由谁担责。即使汾阳侯那个分支在此事上是无辜的,只怕也不会出头了。 Zhao Changshi sees other emperor not instruction, calmly has drawn back. 赵常侍见皇帝没有其它吩咐,就静静退了出去。 In the stage that man then slowly opens jade slip, in the smooth simple jade surface appears slowly eight large characters: The places of seven province, Stairway of Heaven Ascension. 高台上那男人这才慢慢将玉简打开,光滑朴素的玉面上缓缓浮现八个大字:七省之地,登天之梯。 The bonus is Great Qin Empire is supreme, sees these eight characters, his hand also shook has shaken. 饶是身为大秦帝国至尊,看到这八个字,他的手也不禁抖了一抖。 PS: Today does not have in addition.
