more goes toward east, the mist is thinner, but the space was still gloomy, as if the sunlight is unable to pass this sea area. 越往东行驶,雾气越稀薄,但天上仍是一片阴沉,仿佛阳光无法透进这块海域。 The surrounding reef is also getting higher and higher, gradually turned into sturdy stone pillar, why does not know, the water level is dropping obviously, the ship's speed is still very steady, the sea level even reduced including the spray, is tranquil like the calm lake. 周围的礁石也越来越高,逐渐变成了一道道粗壮的石柱,不知为何,水位明明在下降,船速依然很平稳,海面甚至连浪花都减小了,平静得就像无风的湖泊。 „After why you waits for the sea water to remove completely, do not enter the Hidden Shadow sea area again?” Tilly asked puzzled, „after such reef all expose comes out, you do not need to be afraid strike a reef.” “为什么你们不等海水完全褪去后再进入幽影海域呢？”提莉不解地问,“这样子礁石全部暴露出来后,你们也不必害怕触礁了吧。” „After , when because the sea water ebbs, we cannot see Ghost Shadow Red River, but it is directs explorer to go to the ruins only way,” Thunder answered, „these pillar islands were not fixed, each tide rising tide fell, in the islands the position will change. In addition majority of marks by sea water absorb, therefore is unable to be used for the localization direction.” “因为等到海水退潮后,我们就看不到鬼影红河了,而它是指引探险家前往遗迹的唯一途径,”雷霆解释道,“这些柱子般的岛屿并不是固定的,每一次潮涨潮落,岛屿间位置就会发生变化。再加上大部分标记都会被海水吞没,所以无法用来定位方向。” „Ghost...... Red River?” Her redundant say/way. “鬼影……红河？”她重复道。 „Right. Look, was this--” Thunder has blown a whistling, aimed at the bow direction. “没错。看,就是这个——”雷霆吹了声口哨,指向船头方向。 witches looks in direction that he refers, sees only in the dark green sea water, presented several red form-- they to flash, just like the illusory image. But quick, 2-3 red shades have fluttered, this Ash saw clearly the goal, that unexpectedly is all over the body the orange-red fish. 女巫们朝他所指的方向望去,只见墨绿色的海水中,出现了几道红色的身影——它们一晃而过,犹如幻影。但很快,又有两三道红影飘过,这一次灰烬看清了目标,那居然是通体橙红的鱼。 „This is...... Fish?” “这是……鱼？” „Hidden Shadow archipelago unique scarlet scale fish,” Thunder feels the chin to say with a smile, „later you will see, Ghost Shadow Red River true colors.” “幽影群岛特有的赤鳞鱼,”雷霆摸着下巴笑道,“待会儿你就会看到,鬼影红河的真面目。” , The fish are gradually getting more and more, moreover no longer appearance of in twos and threes, but gathers one group, the collective hovers-- to face forward to look in the direction of stern by far, that Ash seen has shocked, more and more fish converged this mighty current, in the sea water presented a dark-red heavy line. The sailing ship is deferring to this red line to march forward very much obviously, the school of fish passes through from the ship's bottom, once for a while can hear the ping ping Bang Bang impact noise. 渐渐的,鱼儿越来越多,而且也不再三三两两的出现,而是聚集成一团,集体朝船尾的方向游动——远远朝前望去,灰烬被所看到的一幕震惊了,越来越多的鱼儿汇入这股洪流,海水中已经出现了一道暗红色的粗线。帆船很明显在按照这条红线行进,鱼群从船底穿过,时不时能听到乒乒乓乓的撞击声。 So that's it, she realized suddenly, this is the unusual rivers that Ghost Shadow Red River-- does not have! As the ships go forward incessantly, the dense and numerous schools of fish expanded one to hold the number ship parallel route, dark green sea water like vanishing generally, the sailing ship is similar to the travel above the school of fish, if not both direction is just right, she even has a type of ship by the fish is holding the misconception. 原来如此,她忽然意识到,这就是鬼影红河——一条并不存在的奇特河流！随着船只不断前进,密密麻麻的鱼群已扩展成一条可以容纳数船并行的航道,墨绿色的海水就像消失了一般,帆船如同行驶在鱼群之上,如果不是两者方向正好相反,她甚至有种船是被鱼儿托着走的错觉。 „Why can like this?” Tilly asked with amazement. “为什么会这样？”提莉惊讶地问。 Ash also very much wants to ask that this issue, in other Greycastle or kingdoms, absolute impossible saw that such scene-- covers the dense fog of surrounding, gloomy sky, grotesque giant stone, as well as scarlet scale fish constitution „rivers”. Her first time was frightened by the marvelous sight of sea. 灰烬也很想问出这个问题,在灰堡或者其他王国,绝对不可能看到这样的景象——笼罩外围的迷雾,阴沉的天空,奇形怪状的巨石,以及赤鳞鱼构成的“河流”。她第一次被大海的奇景所震慑到了。 „Because of the reason of main island,” Thunder said, „it like Spire of triangle, the middle has the place giant cavity to pass through the tower, these scarlet scale fish like spawning in the hole, multiplication descendant. But when ebb tide, the emptiness will surface, but school of fish association first that dwells feels the change of water level, swarms. So long as follows Ghost Shadow Red River, we can arrive in the Hidden Shadow main island.” “因为主岛的缘故,”雷霆说道,“它就像一座三角形的尖塔,中间有处巨大的空洞贯穿塔身,这些赤鳞鱼喜欢在洞中产卵,繁衍后代。而落潮时,空洞就会浮出水面,而栖息的鱼群总会第一个感受到水位的变化,蜂拥而出。所以只要顺着鬼影红河,我们就能抵达幽影主岛。” „Sir Thunder, the front has the huge obstacle! It looks like like a mountain!” The lookout men yelled. “雷霆大人,前方有巨大障碍物！看起来就像一座大山！”瞭望员大叫道。 „It seems like we drew near,” he shook to extinguish the tobacco pipe, „ladies, welcome to the shadow archipelago.” “看来我们快到了,”他抖灭烟斗,“女士们,欢迎来到暗影群岛。” Before long, Ash also saw the appearance of main island, just like Thunder said, it like general that several triangles put together, gets down on widely narrow, the surface is very at first sight smooth, at all likely is not nature creation. However must say that the entire tower is population truncates to cut, that was extremely also astonishing. Only is the tower almost half city sizes of revealing, the middle cavity may accommodate Tower of Babel of next Hermes church fully. 不一会儿,灰烬也看到了主岛的模样,正如雷霆所说,它就像几块三角形拼出来的一般,下宽上窄,表面乍看起来十分平整,根本不像是自然造物。不过要说整个塔是人口削切出来的,那也太过惊人了点。光是露出来的塔身就几乎有半座城市大小,中间的空洞足可容下一座赫尔梅斯教堂的通天塔。 The sea water still in retreating, the water of great hole peak sprinkled like a waterfall, but the part that below submerged was covered by the school of fish completely, dyed red the sea area within field of vision range, Ash mused, lived the scarlet scale fish in hole perhaps to have surely. 海水仍在退却中,巨洞顶端的积水如瀑布般洒下,而下面淹没的部分完全被鱼群覆盖,将视野范围内的海域染成一片通红,灰烬不禁暗想,生活在洞里的赤鳞鱼恐怕有千万之多。 When continuously weather tarnish, the sea water completely draws back to the hole bottom. While this opportunity, Thunder orders the sailor aback to approach shore, and uses the sturdy hemp rope connection on the copper pile of cave entrance. Stands in the great hole edge, can see from afar opposite penetration mouth-- from the rays of two incidences can only illuminate very small section of range, the empty center is almost a darkness, making people think that constrains inexplicably. 一直等到天色变暗,海水才完全退至洞底。趁着这个机会,雷霆命令水手停船靠岸,并用粗壮的麻绳连接在洞口的铜桩上。站在巨洞边缘,可以远远看到对面的贯通口——从两头入射的光线只能照亮很小一截范围,空洞中央几乎是一片漆黑,让人觉得莫名压抑。 „When these piles are your previous time come stays behind?” Ash asked. “这些桩子是你上次来时留下的？”灰烬问。 „No,” Thunder shakes the head, „when my first time comes to here, the copper pile existed. They should be the ruins master construct.” “不,”雷霆摇摇头,“我第一次来这儿时,铜桩就已经存在了。它们应该都是遗迹主人建造的。” „ruins...... Where is at?” “遗迹……在哪？” He smiled to refer to upwardly, „in our top of the head, we have stood in the ruins entrance.” 他微笑着向上指了指,“就在我们头顶,我们已经站在了遗迹入口处。” ...... …… The following journey can only describe with inconceivable, witches is following Thunder one line, enters from great hole bottom stone door, following stone steps that the water murmur flows, circles step by step on. Although everybody is holding the flare, the flame that but leaps compares this one shortly the end staircase, appears weak and tiny. 接下来的旅程只能用不可思议来形容,女巫们跟随着雷霆一行人,从巨洞底部一处石门进入,顺着积水潺潺流淌的石阶,一步步盘旋而上。虽说大家都举着火把,但跃动的火光相比这处一眼看不到尽头的楼梯,显得微弱而渺小。 Leads the way in the abyss general darkness, Tilly firmly holds the arm of Ash, did not have usually the self-poise appearance completely. 在深渊一般的黑暗中前行,提莉紧紧抓住灰烬的手臂,完全没了平时镇定自若的样子。 This is princess who know very well, Ash thinks. In the royal palace, this always has oneself idea, facing any difficulty confident Fifth Princess, the biggest weakness is to fear black. In the evening sleeps, in room wants candle. When fleeing from royal palace, if no condition such to do, is accompanies by oneself in her side goes to sleep. 这才是自己熟知的公主殿下,灰烬想。在王宫里时,这位总有着自己想法,面对任何困难都信心十足的五王女,最大的弱点就是怕黑。就连晚上睡觉时,房间里都要点起蜡烛。在逃离王宫时,若没有条件这么做,都是由自己陪在她身边入睡。 Walks in moist gloomy Spire, the Ash mood instead became happy many. 走在潮湿阴暗的尖塔内,灰烬的心情反而变得愉快了不少。 Has not met any Evil Beast all the way, has not hindered mechanism-- of intruder, even if has, under the long-term immersion of sea water, it is estimated that also already expired. The only issue is, long climbed up has exhausted one line of majority of physical strengths, everybody's movement was also getting more and more slow, when the stone steps came to the end finally, in the team could not bear resound cheers. 一路上并没有遇见什么邪兽,也没有阻碍入侵者的机关——即使有,在海水的长时间浸泡下,估计也早就失效了。唯一的问题在于,漫长的攀爬耗尽了一行人大部分体力,大家的动作也越来越迟缓,当石阶终于走到尽头时,队伍里忍不住响起了一阵欢呼声。 The ruins last checkpoint is not stone door, but is made by the metal, sends out the bright reflection under the flare illumination. Thunder both hands with the thrust gate, the heavy/thick shutter exudes the grating fricative, opens slowly. 遗迹的最后一道关卡并非石门,而是由金属制成,在火把照射下发出明亮的反光。雷霆双手用力推门,厚重的门板发出刺耳的摩擦声,缓缓打开。 Ash grasps the sword only, indoor enters, after looking all around the confirmation does not have the danger, lets other Tilly and witch steps into the room. 灰烬单手持剑,率先进入室内,环顾四周确认没有危险后,才让提莉和其他女巫踏入房间。 As the flare hangs all over all around wall, a broad hall appears before the people--, although is broad, actually appears empty, can sweep, thing that anything has not been worth pondering over. 随着火把挂满四周墙壁,一个宽阔的大厅出现在众人面前——虽然宽阔,却显得空空荡荡,一眼就能扫完,并没有什么值得琢磨的东西。 „Is this ruins?” She strokes gently must send the green stone system tabletop by the water immersion, „except for some stone tables and stools, here anything does not have.” “这就是遗迹？”她摩挲着被水浸泡得发绿的石制桌面,“除了一些石头桌子和凳子,这里什么都没有。” „Indeed is not much left,” the Thunder nod said, „it is too long in the seabed deep sleep, besides the stone, anything is very difficult to preserve. I have also told Your Highness Tilly, but she persists in coming to see personally.” “的确所剩无几,”雷霆点头道,“它在海底沉睡太久,除了石头外,任何东西都很难保存下来。我也跟提莉殿下说过,可她坚持亲自来看一趟。” „These red stones?” Tilly opens the mouth saying that „where you did find?” “那些红色的石头呢？”提莉开口道,“你们是在哪里找到的？” „On the ground, at that time scattered fell place, probably dozens.” “就在地上,当时零零散散落了一地,大概好几十个吧。” However now anything did not have, Ash lowered the head to look at the eye to grow the slippery ground of seaweed, arrived here explorer incessantly Thunder, under plundered one after another, but can also find magic stone is the strange event. 然而现在什么都没有了,灰烬低头望了眼已经长出海藻的湿滑地面,抵达此处的探险家不止雷霆一位,轮番搜刮之下,还能找到魔石才是怪事。 But the Tilly interest is still full, she is holding the flare, sizes up in the hall carefully each corner, the specially gloomy place, she will also make the sailors increase several flares. Molly summoned Magic Servant, spread out to flatten on the ground, acted as the cushion rest to everybody, Ash follows side Tilly, looks that she touched on the wall. 但提莉依然兴致十足,她举着火把,仔细打量大厅内每一个角落,特别阴暗的地方,她还会让水手们多添加几支火把。莫丽尔召唤出魔力仆从,在地上摊开铺平,给大家充作坐垫休息,灰烬则跟在提莉身边,看着她在墙壁上摸来摸去。 „Well,” suddenly, Fifth Princess stopped the footsteps, „what is this?” “咦,”忽然间,五王女停下了脚步,“这是什么？” Ash looks following her vision, sees only to cover on wall of one green liver mosses, reflects some flames faintly. 灰烬顺着她的目光看去,只见覆盖有一片绿苔的墙壁上,隐隐反射出些许火光。 Tilly put out a hand to tear down the green liver moss, sees only one -and-a-half to bury gem in stone wall reveals to come out-- it similarly presents bright red, with magic stone general clear translucent, appeared the prism shape, had almost the arm to be thick or thin, but peripheral inlaid the golden filament, was an abutment fixes it in inside likely. Even if has soaked in the sea water so for a long time, twines the stone brightly and cleanly the gold thread also still such as new. 提莉伸手将绿苔撕下,只见一块半埋在石壁里的宝石露了出来——它同样呈现出鲜红色,和魔石一般晶莹透亮,呈棱柱状,差不多有手臂粗细,但周边嵌有金色细丝,像是一个卡槽将其固定在里面。即使在海水中浸泡了如此长时间,缠绕石头的金丝也依然光洁如新。 Tilly tried to pull out pulling out, gem has been entirely still. 提莉试着拔了拔,宝石纹丝不动。 „Makes me come,” Ash said. “让我来吧,”灰烬说。 Fifth Princess shook the head, seems pondering anything, afterward she builds the hand in the prism, closes both eyes. 五王女摇了摇头,似乎正在思考什么,随后她将手搭在棱柱上,闭上双眼。 Suddenly, prism center flashes through ray-- Ash also to think that was the vertigo, but after the wall, transmitted rumble the echo quickly, as if had any mechanism to be touched general, before long then spread to the entire hall. In stone wall everywhere is the fricatives of creaking, bunch of gentle white lights from wall for the first time presently, even the ceiling of top of the head also has shone continually. 突然,棱柱中心闪过一道光芒——灰烬还以为是自己眼花了,但墙后很快传来轰隆隆地回响,似乎有什么机关被触动一般,不一会儿便蔓延至整个大厅。石壁上到处都是嘎吱嘎吱的摩擦声,一团团柔和的白光从墙壁上乍现,甚至连头顶的天花板也亮了起来。 The sailors stand up panic-stricken, draws out weapon, actually does not know that which this defends one side, finally can only back to back tight by in the same place, gathers round the Molly magic power servant to gather one group. 水手们惊慌失措地站起身,纷纷拔出武器,却不知道该防守哪一边,最终只能背靠背紧紧挨在一起,围着莫丽尔的魔力仆役聚成一团。 However does not have what monster to rush ahead. 然而并没有什么怪物冲杀出来。 When the sound restores to be tranquil, in hall is brilliantly illuminated. 当声响恢复平静时,大厅里已是灯火通明。
