On such that such as Brian said that once Border Town snows, will then not stand still. 就如布莱恩所说的那样,边陲镇一旦下雪,便不会停歇。 Evening's time, small town has wrapped up white muslin. When to early morning, the snow potential is weaken, in the sky will occasionally drop several fragmentary snowflakes, but the weather was still dusky. Thinks that cannot see Sun several months, Roland then thinks somewhat inconceivable. 一晚上时间,小镇已裹上了一层白纱。到清晨时,雪势减弱,天空中偶尔才会落下几片零碎的雪花,但天色仍是灰蒙蒙的。想到将有数月见不到太阳,罗兰便觉得有些不可思议。 This does not gather the common sense simply, he thinks, although has the magic power world to seek for the common sense itself in witch is very strange, but does Evil Beast affect the celestial phenomenon? Was only a pity that he does not have the meteorological satellite to tell itself, now the cloud chart of world distributes situation specifically. 这简直不合常理,他想,虽然在女巫具有魔力的世界寻找常理本身就很怪异,但邪兽是怎么影响到天象的？只可惜他没有气象卫星来告诉自己,现在世界的云图具体分布情况。 Walks on going to the road in Western Region city wall, Carter sighed: „In town lonely many, one fellows evacuated with noble.” 走在前往西境城墙的路上,卡特不禁感叹道:“镇子里冷清了不少,还是有一帮家伙跟着贵族撤离了。” „This is also good, at least they will not hold back,” Roland exits the white clouds, „I have arranged Barov to carry on a time census in this in the winter.” “这样也好,至少他们不会拖后腿,”罗兰哈出口白气,“我已经安排巴罗夫在这个冬天进行一次人口普查了。” „What is that?” “那是什么？” „From house to house visits to conduct statistics, remains has many people, household of several name, is engaged in any occupation, then registers,” Roland answered, „as the matter stands, the wartime mixed manpower natural resource, provided to comfort and aid a bereaved family after the war, can quickly effectively implement.” “就是挨家挨户上门做统计,留下来的有多少人,一户几口都叫什么名字,从事什么职业,然后登记下来,”罗兰解释道,“这样一来,无论是战时调配人力资源,还是战后发放抚恤,都能快速有效地实施。” „...... Manpower natural resource?” Carter blinked, afterward has smiled, „your highness, you were not quite really same as before.” “呃……人力资源？”卡特眨了眨眼睛,随后笑了,“殿下,您跟以前真的不太一样了。” „Oh?” “哦？” „Beforehand you, although will also say the words that some I cannot understand, do some bewildered matters, but, eventually is some and prince status incompatible matter. But now......” Carter stop moment, as if in consideration word usage, „these that you decide train the rule strangely, novel test piece that moves from alchemical workshop, finally extraordinary effectiveness. Perhaps this is, Exceed that my grandfather said reason that is uncommon , because can always see the place that the average person neglects. I have a feeling, perhaps you really can become next King.” “以前的您,虽然也会说一些我听不懂的话,做一些莫名其妙的事,但,终究是些与王子身份不符的事。而现在……”卡特停顿片刻,似乎在考虑用词,“无论是您定的那些古怪训练条例,还是从炼金工坊搬来的新奇试验品,结果都出奇的有效。或许这就是我祖父所说的,超凡者之所以不凡,是因为总能看到普通人忽略的地方。我有种感觉,说不定您真的能成为下一任国王。” „...... Yes,” the Roland heart surges suddenly a warm current, what ratio struggle but also after there is, was under approved has the matter of sense of achievement? Suddenly he felt that the hands and feet has been full of the strength, the gloomy sky is not weary. “……是么,”罗兰忽然心头涌起一股暖流,还有什么比奋斗后被手下认同更具有成就感的事吗？一时间他感到手脚都充满了力气,灰暗的天空也没那么令人厌烦了。 Steps onto the city wall, the militia team is cleaning up the snow on corridor, sees the prince to appear, the people bow to salute. 走上城墙,民兵队正在清理过道上的积雪,见到王子出现,众人纷纷躬身行礼。 Should teach them the good military salute, Roland thinks, „last night situation was what kind of?” 应该教他们行军礼的,罗兰想,“昨晚情况怎么样？” „Has not discovered the Evil Beast's trail,” answer his is Iron Axe, „your highness, according to the past experience, after the first snow, we also had a quite steady time. In this time the Evil Beast quantity are not many, but disassimilation also mostly is some small and weak animals.” “没有发现邪兽的踪迹,”回答他的是铁斧,“殿下,按以往的经验来看,在第一场雪后,我们还有一段较为平稳的时期。这段时期内邪兽数量不多,而异化的也大多是一些弱小的动物。” Roland nods, „that continues maintains the security.” 罗兰点点头,“那就继续保持警戒吧。” Behind city wall region transformed the barracks, has not sounded the storozhevoy time, most people will rest in camp, save the physical strength. Security implementation taking turns system, considered that the winter temperature is low, each group of teams only carry on the patrol securities of two double-hour then to replace one round. 城墙后方的区域已经改造成了兵营,没有吹响警戒号的时候,大多数人都会在营地休息,节约体力。警戒实施轮换制度,考虑到冬天气温较低,每组队伍仅进行两个时辰的巡逻警戒便更换一轮。 These measures are Roland decide. He once had inquired Brian, knew that Longsong Stronghold is resisting Evil Beast simply not to have the plan. The most bad luck recruit will be sent to monitor the Evil Beast trend, treats in the city wall is one all day. Therefore is loaf, the escaping phenomenon to sometimes occur, a winter later, because neglects duty the people who or violates the military order hang to reach 20-30. 这些措施都是罗兰一条条定下来的。他曾询问过布莱恩,得知长歌要塞在抵御邪兽根本没有方案可言。最倒霉的新兵会被派去监视邪兽动向,在城墙上一待就是一整天。因此偷懒、逃跑现象时有发生,一个冬天下来,因为失职或违反军令被吊死的人都多达二三十个。 After discovering the Evil Beast trail, that is the complete mess, has not divided the defense sector, will not assign the responsibility to the person. Associated to the war level of this time, Roland also understands clearly. Is fastidious extremely individual bravely, stressed that honor and tribulation attain, will occur including Knight warm-blooded above on the age that oneself charge, do not request too high good. 至于发现邪兽踪迹后,那更是一团糟,既没有划分防御区段,也不会指定责任到人。联想到这个时代的战争水平,罗兰也就了然了。极端讲究个人勇武,强调荣誉和劫获,连骑士都会发生热血上头就自个冲锋的年代,还是不要要求太高的好。 Inspects along the city wall, at present looks like all is very smooth, but Roland had actually discovered oneself has neglected an issue. 沿着城墙巡视一遍,目前看起来一切都很顺利,但罗兰却发现了自己忽略了一个问题。 That guides the roadblock. 那就是引导路障。 These obstacles at present still very clear carries the Evil Beast bringing about city wall , but if Brian said that unmistakable, two to three months of snow associations levels the barrier completely. By that time, on 600 meters defense line any point possibly becomes the Evil Beast's line of march, his manpower has no time to care about the so big range radically. 这些障碍物目前仍很清晰的将邪兽引致城墙中端,但若是布莱恩所说无误的话,两到三个月的积雪总会把障碍全部填平。到那时,600米的防线上任何一点都可能会成为邪兽的行进路线,他的人手根本无暇顾及如此大的范围。 Sends for the cleaning up snow being also unlikely, several agile Wolf species Evil Beast sufficiently make the team lose seriously. 派人下去清理积雪也不大可能,几只敏捷的狼种邪兽就足以让队伍损失惨重。 Perhaps must depend upon the witch strength. 或许还是得依靠女巫的力量。 For example makes Nightingale bring Anna to sneak to go out of town, selects the fire melting snow, sneaks-- secretly to bring Nana such like her from Pine Family again. 比如让夜莺带着安娜潜行出城,点起大火融化积雪,再潜行回来——就像她从派恩家偷带娜娜瓦那样。 At this moment, left side of look-out station situated in city wall said. 就在这时,位于城墙左侧的观察哨叫了起来。 „Looks at front quickly!” “快看前面！” Roland and Carter look toward the position that he refers to, one group of small shadows crawled from the snowy area, moves to the city wall slowly. 罗兰和卡特朝他所指的位置看去,一团小小的黑影从雪地中爬了出来,缓缓向城墙挪动。 „Your highness, you said that wants......” to be responsible for this defense the hunter who turning the head to ask. “殿下,您说要不要……”负责该段防御的猎人转过头问。 „According to the beforehand drilling, you should voluntarily the judgment whether sounds the bugle,” Roland said that „, moreover in this regard, you compared with me more experienced.” “按之前的演练,你应该自行判断是否吹响号角,”罗兰说,“而且在这一点上,你比我更有经验。” He hesitant, finally draws in the crossbow string, stands continues to observe in the city wall. 他犹豫了下,最终只是拉上弩弦,站在城墙边继续观察。 Roland nods satisfied, currently speaking, the order in city wall also maintains well. Does not know, when massive Evil Beast attack Border Town, can they have the defense according to the step rapid organization of drilling. 罗兰满意地点点头,就目前来看,城墙上的秩序还维持得不错。就是不知道当大量邪兽进攻边陲镇时,他们还能不能按演练的步骤迅速组织起防御。 The shadow enters gradually, when leaves the city wall also 50 meters probably, Roland has been able to see clearly the Evil Beast's appearance. 黑影逐渐走进,大概离城墙还有50米时,罗兰已能看清邪兽的外貌。 Probably is only Fox species? 大概是只狐狸变种？ Its fur is the gray-black, eye is red, breathes heavily the white clouds to arrive at the city wall. 它的毛皮呈灰黑色,眼睛通红,喘着白气来到城墙边。 „This fellow was corroded evidently shortly, threatens not in a big way,” Iron Axe said while draws the aiming. “这家伙看样子才被侵蚀没多久,威胁不大,”铁斧边说边开弓瞄准。 „You said them by the aura infection of hell, and pursues to the west hence?” “你说它们都是被地狱的气息感染,并且向西驱逐至此？” „Not merely to the west,” Carter collects saying that „Gate of Hell when wasteland opens, does not have place that Impassable Mountain Range prevents, will be attacked by Evil Beast's, especially north big opening. Extended Impassable Mountain Range hence like to be interrupted generally, the opening is more than ten miles, was the main direction of Evil Beast attack.” “不单是向西,”卡特凑过来道,“地狱之门在蛮荒地打开时,没有绝境山脉阻挡的地方,都会受到邪兽的袭击,特别是北方的大豁口。延绵至此的绝境山脉就像被截断了一般,豁口长达十余里,也是邪兽进攻的主要方向。” This manic monster paced back and forth the moment under city wall, raises the head, grins on the people toward wall to send out the low roar, when jumps to leap, Iron Axe loosens the bowstring, an advantage arrow penetrated its neck neck accurately, sews it on ground firmly. 这只狂躁的怪物在城墙下徘徊了片刻,扬起头,咧嘴朝墙上的众人发出低吼,正待纵身一跃时,铁斧松开弓弦,一支利箭准确地穿透了它的颈脖,将它牢牢钉在地上。 Roland the blood that notes it to flow is the black. 罗兰注意到它流出来的血是黑色的。 Similarly why was corroded by the strength of demon, after witch awakens, can preserve consciousness, but the wild animal actually will become the hysterical/frenzy, simultaneously will the body have the mutation? If, has the opportunity, must go to behind Impassable Mountain Range to look, he thinks. In memory of prince, there belongs to the restricted area that human is unable to visit, is place that Gate of Hell opens. However because no one has gone, these mostly speculated from the ancient books the rumor that is unable to confirm, the confidence level leaves undecided. 为什么同样受邪魔之力侵蚀,女巫觉醒后能保存神志,而野兽却会变得狂乱,同时身体产生异变？如果以后有机会的话,一定要去绝境山脉背后看一看,他想。在王子的记忆里,那里属于人类无法踏足的禁地,是地狱之门开启的地方。不过由于谁都没有去过,这些大多从古老书籍里推测出来的传言也根本无从验证,可信度存疑。
