Andreajustmounted the city wallcorner, sawmakesone that sheshocks.安德莉亚刚登上城墙一角,就看到了令她震惊的一幕。Soldier who sees only a row of militiaappearancestandsin the top, intheirhandsgraspsstrangeweapon--generally is being the flintlock in Ashmouth. As the Evil Beastgroupapproaches, the flintlockerupts the flame and thick smoke, continuouscrackreverberatesin the ear.
只见一排民兵打扮的战士站在墙头,他们手中握着一杆奇怪的武器——大抵便是灰烬口中的火枪。随着邪兽群靠近,火枪喷发出火焰和浓烟,接连不断的炸响在耳边回荡。Thisshouldbeonetypeweapon that is similarto the crossbowbow, butshecannot see the crossbowarrow that the opposite partyprojects, probablyis the mist and dusttoobigreason. To forefrontEvil Beastis similar tobyanythingis poundedruthlessly, body, falls to the groundone after another.
这应该是一种类似于弩弓的武器,但她根本看不到对方射出的弩矢,大概是烟尘太大的缘故。冲在最前面的邪兽如同被什么东西狠狠砸中般,身子一顿,接二连三地栽倒在地。But the soldiershave already not observedvictory, does not have the fillingcrossbowarrow, butcontinuesto the enemyfires, speedpicks up the bownockingalsoto wanton the quickseveralpoints.
但战士们既没有观察战果,也没有装填弩矢,而是继续向敌人射击,速度比自己拈弓搭箭还要快上几分。„Is thisfearfulweapon that yousaid?”Andreafelt that lipsomewhatdry, „the rate of fireis indeed quick, buthit probabilityas if......”
“这就是你说的可怕武器?”安德莉亚感到嘴唇有些干涩,“射速的确很快,但命中率似乎……”„Before thesepeoplebyhiringFirst Army, is the miner, farmerandhunter,” the Ashinterruptionsaid,„theyusethisweapontimeto be also less than a halfyear.”
“这些人被招人第一军前,都是矿工、农夫和猎户,”灰烬打断道,“他们使用这种武器的时间还不到半年。”
A well-trainedsoldiertakesfiveyearsto train, the bowmanis longer, even iftrains the date and timeshortestcrossbowbow, mustspendin the first half of the yearabout, canmake the farmerbe insufficientinflusteredto put the counter-crossbowarrow. As foractualfight? God knowstheycanhit a targetanything, majority ofsituationbringsin the sidestrongmomentum.
一个训练有素的战士需要五年时间来培养,弓手则更长,即使是训练时日最短的弩弓,也得花上半年左右,才能让农夫不至于在慌张中放反弩矢。至于实际战斗?天知道他们能射中什么,大部分情况都只是带在身边壮壮声势。Anders**did not control selfhas swallowed a saliva, shewas not strangetothesetrainings, the familyalsooncetrainedexcessivelyoutstandingKnight, thereforenaturallyunderstands that about a halfyearcaninvest the actual combatto meananything. So long asweapon and graincansupplyfully, Rolandcanpiece together a hugearmyin a short time, moreoverthisarmywas not worried that collapses at the first encounter in bodyfight, does not have the attack of intermittence, even if eliteKnightis also hardto approach.
安德莉**不自禁地咽了口唾沫,她对这些训练并不陌生,家族也曾培养过杰出的骑士,因此自然明白半年左右就能投入实战意味着什么。只要武器和粮食能够供应充分,罗兰可以在短时间内拼凑出一支庞大的军队,而且这支军队并不担心在近身搏斗中一触即溃,毫无间歇的攻击即使是精锐的骑士也难以靠近。Thishas nothing to dowithwillwith the militiacourage, wasweaponhas entrusted withtheirformidablestrengths.
这跟民兵的勇气与意志无关,是武器赋予了他们强大的力量。„Do youhaveotherunderstandingto the flintlock?” After Tillyhas pondered the moment, askedSilvie.
“你对火枪有其它了解吗?”提莉沉思了片刻后问希尔维。
The latternods, „Icarefullyobserve many times, itindeedisonetype the arrow that weapon that is similarto the bowcrossbow, launchesis very short, not having the shaftnot to have the tail feathers. The differentplaceslie , the arrowdoes not depend upon the tension of stringed musical instruments, whenisblackpowderexplosionimpulse--itcanininstantaneously the arrowpromotionhighspeed.”
后者点点头,“我仔细观察过很多次,它的确是一种类似于弓弩的武器,发射出去的箭头很短,没有箭杆也没有尾羽。不同的地方在于,箭头并不依靠弦索的弹力,而是黑色粉末爆炸时的冲击力——它能在瞬间将箭头提升至极高的速度。”„Blackpowder?”Ash asked that „what was that?”
“黑色粉末?”灰烬问道,“那是什么?”„Probablyisonealchemyproduct,”sheshakes the head, „concreteingredientIam not clear.”
“大概是一种炼金制品,”她摇摇头,“具体的成分我也不清楚。”„Shouldbe expensive,”„the thing that Andrea, alchemistmakes is always not the bargain-priced goods.”
“应该非常昂贵吧,”安德莉亚,“炼金师造出来的东西从来都不是什么便宜货。”Ashcurls the lip, „...... Howeverlooks at the manner that theyfire , is not using the howexpensivegoodscompletelylikely.”灰烬撇撇嘴,“是么……不过看他们射击的神态,完全不像是在用多么昂贵的物品。”„Wait/Etc., whatthinghadto come,”is sizing upbattlefieldSilvieto be startledslightly, „, is thisalsoEvil Beast? Had the city wallto be highquickly! It seems like a giantturtle, carries on the backalsocarries the giantcarapace.”
“等等,有什么东西过来了,”正在打量战场的希尔维微微一怔,“天哪,这也是邪兽吗?个头快有城墙高了!看起来像是一只巨大的乌龟,背上还背着巨大的甲壳。”Andreacame the spiritimmediately, „carapace? Theseflintlocksfear the effectto be limited, so long asmakesmeapproachten step range, even if the city wallcannot blockmymagic powerarrows. Ash, youshieldme.”安德莉亚顿时来了精神,“甲壳?这些火枪恐怕效果有限,只要让我靠近到十步范围,就算是城墙也挡不住我的魔力箭矢。灰烬,你来掩护我。”„Hū, good,”Ash, helplessbehind the taking downbigsword, „firstreached an agreement, do not lose the face of Lady Tilly.”
“呼,好吧,”灰烬无奈取下背后的大剑,“先说好,你可别丢了提莉大人的脸。”„Do not go,”Silviestops saying that „they have--”
“你们别去,”希尔维制止道,“他们还有——”Andreahas not heard the opposite partylatterhalf a wordwords, sheonlyhearddeafeningthundering, likelyis the heavenly thundernear the earcrack. Has turned head, city wallon the shelfverticalmetalcastseruptas if by prior agreement the flame, thistime, shecaughtarrowflightOrbit--indistinctlytheylikelyisHidden Shadow, quickly, the monster that justcame totoward the distant placeflies.安德莉亚没有听到对方的后半句话,她只听到了一声震耳欲聋的轰鸣,像是天雷在耳边炸响。回过头,城墙上架立的一座座金属管状物不约而同地喷发出火焰,这一次,她隐约捕捉到了箭头飞行的轨迹——它们像是一道道幽影,以迅雷不及掩耳之势,朝远处刚刚现身的怪物飞去。
After counting breaths, the monstersideleapt several feethighsnowcolumns, after the snowflake that flewviolentlyfell gently, uglyhugeEvil Beaststilllaunched--thisattack unable at the fixedspeedobviously the hitopposite party.
数息之后,怪物身边腾起了数根丈高的雪柱,激飞的雪花飘落后,丑陋的巨大邪兽仍以固定的速度进行——显然这一次攻击没能命中对方。Buteven so, enoughmadeAndreabesurprisedextremely...... Thisdistance, has gone far beyond the long bow and heavycrossbow, „thisis......”
但即使如此,也足够令安德莉亚感到惊讶万分了……这个距离,已经远远超过了长弓和重弩,“这是……”„Your highnesssaid that itfor the field artillery, simply speaking, itisoneenlarged the flintlock,”Silvieloosens the ear that covers, „mightis much bigger than the flintlock, firing distancealsoonfarmany, heusesthis, divided the road forkto beat the TimothymilitiafleetinScarlet Water Rivereasily.”
“殿下称它为野战炮,简单来说,它是一把放大了的火枪,”希尔维松开捂住的耳朵,“威力比火枪要大得多,射程也远上不少,他就是利用这个,在赤水河分岔口轻易击溃了提费科的民兵船队。”
The Evil Beast'sluckcannotcontinueagain, secondroundbombinghadtworoundsaccuratelyto hititscarapace, Andreasawveryclearly, the unevencarapaceraisedmistin the depressedimpact noise, approached the headone sideto be rumbleddirectlytwobig hole, the blackblood and internal organsspoutedfrom the hole, splashingeverywherewas.邪兽的运气没能再延续下去,第二轮炮击有两发准确的击中了它的甲壳,安德莉亚看得十分清楚,凹凸不平的甲壳在沉闷的撞击声中扬起一层薄雾,靠近头部的一侧直接被轰出两个大洞,黑色的血液和内脏从洞中喷出,溅的到处都是。
The fighthad ended in a while then, before the city wall , the lodging the large expanse ofEvil Beastcorpse, is flowingwarm-bloodedmadeabove the snowy areahike up the intermittentwhite fog, the soldiersstartedto carry out the aftermath, butshealwayscannotfind the takes actionopportunity.
战斗没过多久便结束了,城墙前倒伏着成片的邪兽尸体,流淌的热血让雪地上方飘起了阵阵白雾,战士们开始进行善后工作,而她始终未能找到出手的机会。„It seems likeIestimatedmistakenly,”Tillysaid with a smilereluctantly, „hedid not need the help of combat typewitch.”
“看来我预计错了,”提莉无奈地笑道,“他并不需要战斗型女巫的帮助。”„When previoustimeItosmall town, thisweaponhas not popularized, only thenChief Knightcanhave, nowhehas madethese manyto sigh...... Ashunexpectedly”, „perhapsthisisyour highnessdaresunder the Church'snumerouspressures, insistedreason that publicwitchhas.”
“上次我到小镇时,这种武器还没有普及开来,只有首席骑士才能拥有,现在他居然已经造出了这么多把……”灰烬叹了口气,“或许这正是殿下敢在教会的重重压力下,坚持公开女巫存在的原因。”Andreahas not said that ifinusually, herwill certainly tauntAsh, butsheonlythought that nowexceptionallyis at heart oppressed, did not haveincluding the strength of quarrel.安德莉亚没有接话,如果在平时,她一定会嘲讽灰烬一番,但现在她只觉得心里异常憋闷,连争吵的力气都没有了。Returns to the castle, Your HighnessRoland was still witcheshad preparedsumptuouslunch.
回到城堡,罗兰殿下仍为女巫们准备了一顿丰盛的午餐。Seeson the table the cooked foodbright with many colors, Andreafelt that stopped upat heart.
看到桌上五光十色的菜肴,安德莉亚感到心里更堵了。Kingdom of Dawnupper-levelnobleis fastidious about the beauty of naturein the diet, theyare willingto spendgreatlygold royal and energy, purchasessomeraretreasuringfood, comes outwith the waycooking of mostoriginal taste and flavoragain. LikevariousGreycastlethistype of sprinklingtypes of the food of spiceandmeat juices cooked in soy bean sauce, isextremelyvulgareatinglaw--seasoningtocoverfoodownflawin her eyes, putsmany, means that the tasteis worse.晨曦王国的上层贵族在饮食上讲究自然之美,他们愿意花费大把金龙和精力,去收购一些难得一见的珍惜食材,再用最原汁原味的方式烹饪出来。像灰堡这种洒满各种香料和酱汁的食物,在她眼里是种极为粗俗的吃法——调味料不过是为了掩盖食物自身的缺陷,放得越多,意味着口感越差。May...... Eachfooddelicacy on tablefearfully.
可偏偏……桌上的每一盘食物都美味得可怕。Is the carbonroasts the mushroomlikely, soplumpjuicinessmushroom where your highnesslooks for? Nipsslightly, the juice of overflowalmostcanfill up the mouth.
像是碳烤蘑菇,殿下到底是从哪里找来的如此肥满多汁的蘑菇?稍微咬一咬,溢出的汁水几乎能把口腔填满。Thisazurevegetable soup, seems very ordinarylimpidsoup, drinks the mouthto have a thickfreshfragrance, as ifitwithgeneral that the whole chicken, spareribs and kelpmake.
还有这道青菜汤,看上去十分普通的清澈汤水,喝进嘴里却有股浓浓的鲜香,仿佛它是用整鸡、排骨和海带煲出来的一般。Most after especiallymeal, sweet snack--ice creambread. The ice cream of milkfragranceoverflowingclampsbetweentwoslices of bread, after bitingnext, thatices and softfeelingmakesherwallowsimplyis inescapably involved, althoughis„in the winter”, does not hinderherto eat up.
最特别是餐后甜点——冰激凌面包。奶香味四溢的冰激凌夹在两片面包之间,咬下一口后,那又冰又软的感觉简直让她沉迷其中不能自拔,尽管是“冬天”,也一点不妨碍她吃下一片又一片。Damn, includingthis pointthoroughlosing.
见鬼,连这一点都彻底的输了。Looksis revealingAsh of provocativesmiling facetowardher, the Andreafirsttimehas not madeanyresponse.
望着朝她露出挑衅笑容的灰烬,安德莉亚第一次没有做出任何回应。
