When Lubaka Bloodwhipjustcrawledfrom the bed, thenhears the news that the northwestsmalloasishas exchanged ownerships.鲁巴卡.血鞭刚从床上爬起来时,便听到了西北小绿洲易主的消息。„Yes?”Heknit the brows, althoughalsosaw that last nightthatoasishas ignited the flame, buthas not thought that roaredClanto linkone unable to insistin the evening. RecentlyinSilver RiverappearedhasnewClan of sopowerfulstrength? Whyhisimpression?
“是么?”他皱了皱眉,虽然昨晚也看到那片绿洲燃起了火光,但没想到咆哮氏族连一个晚上都坚持不下来。最近银川中有出现过拥有如此强悍实力的新氏族吗?为何他一点印象都没有?Lubakapats the sidehas been lying downfavoringJi, after makingherbind the wool blanketis exiting, looksto the subordinate, „saidcarefully.”鲁巴卡拍了拍身边躺着的宠姬,让她裹着毛毯出去后,才望向手下,“仔细说说。”„Yes, reportedaccording to the fellow who theserun away, the after fire of oasisis notChallengersneaks, puts, butisdayfire-- of fatherGod”
“是,根据那些逃回来的家伙报告,绿洲的大火不是挑战者潜入后放的,而是父神的天火——”„Fart!”Hehas spat a saliva, „thisgroup of cowards, come across the matter that could not solveto advanceonThree Gods, Imusthangthementirelyin the Iron Sand Cityentrance!”
“放屁!”他吐了口唾沫,“这群懦夫,一遇到解决不了的事情就推到三神身上,我要把他们统统吊死在铁砂城门口!”„......”Underhesitantlittle while, „mypersonthis morningalsowent tosmalloasiscamp, discovered that therescenetrulytracesto narratewiththemquitesimilar...... In the groundhasjet blackbig hole, the corpse and housefragmentsprinkleeverywhereare, is not the purearsoncanachievelikely.”
“不过……”手下犹豫了会儿,“我的人今早也去了小绿洲营地一趟,发现那里的景象确实跟他们描叙的颇为相似……地面上有许多漆黑的大坑,尸体和房屋碎片洒得到处都是,并不像是单纯的纵火能做到的。”„Fragment?”
“碎片?”„Right, probably a giantsandwormor the drillscorpionhave groundcamp, tearsscattered aboutthemgeneral.”Underis considering the word usage, „waits the personincampmostlyto have bad luck, asked the fellow of pleasureto organize the counter-attack outside actually, was only...... Theirmatchsurfacehad not seen,was routed.”
“没错,就好像一只巨大的沙虫或钻地蝎碾过营地,把他们撕扯得七零八落一般。”手下斟酌着用词,“待在营地里的人大多倒了霉,倒是在外面找乐子的家伙组织起了反击,只是……他们连对手面都没见到,就被击溃了。”„In other words, inthatgroup of idiots hadn't the ambush, then approached the matchto flee in panic?”Lubakastartssomewhatto suspectoneselfwere benevolentto the watch-dog, the expenditurewins overthem the timegreatly, finallyonly thenthisdegree? The putrefication of long-termcalm and steadylifetostrengthexpectshimcanbe more serious than? „Then? So far, theydo not even know that the one whooccupies the smalloasisiswhichClan?”
“换句话说,那群蠢货中了伏击,然后还没逼近对手就仓皇逃窜了?”鲁巴卡开始有些怀疑自己是否对看门狗过于仁慈了,花费大把功夫拉拢他们,结果就只有这种程度?还是说,长期的安稳生活对实力的腐化比他预想的要更严重?“然后呢?到目前为止,他们甚至仍不知道占据小绿洲的是哪一个氏族?”„Mypersonwas inquiring, shouldquickbe ableto obtain the news,”hand/subordinatespoke ofherepaused, somehesitantly said, „were onlysomerefugeessaid,theysaw the forms of manynorthpeople.”
“我的人正在打听中,应该很快就能得到消息,”手下说到这儿顿了顿,有些迟疑道,“只是一些逃民说,他们看到了许多北方人的身影。”„northperson......”
“北方人……”ThisnewsmakesLubakaearnest.
这个消息让鲁巴卡认真起来。Hearrives at the windowstark naked, is looking atwesternnorth , the flameearlyhas extinguished, onlyremainingblack smokes of severalwisps of visibling faintly.
他赤身裸体地走到窗边,望着西北方向,火光早已经熄灭,只剩下几缕隐约可见的黑烟。AlthoughroaredClanis the iron whipwith the watch-dog that truncating the bonecollaboratedto win over, buthedid not care about the opposite partylife. The Challengersystemis the competency test, ratherissixbigClanfor the protectionwall that oneselfset up, thistruthafterhemoves intoIron Sand Cityis clear.
尽管咆哮氏族是铁鞭与削骨联手拉拢的看门狗,但他并不是太在意对方的死活。挑战者制度与其说是资格测试,倒不如说是六大氏族为自己设立的保护墙,这个道理在他入驻铁砂城后才明白。
The sacredduelispreying of small scale, Challengercompetes for the smalloasismerely is actually all-out wars between twoClan. Even if the two sideskill the rivers of bloodare notanythingrare the matter, after alldoes not enterIron Sand City, the oasis is also eachClanseeks the strongland that must fight. Whereregardless ofwins, generallywill pay the extremelyheavy price, needsto licka long time*licks the wound.
神圣决斗仅仅是小规模的搏杀,挑战者争夺小绿洲却是两个氏族间的全面战争。两边即使杀得血流成河也不算什么稀罕事,毕竟就算不进入铁砂城,绿洲也是每个氏族寻求壮大的必争之地。无论哪边胜利,一般都会付出极为沉重的代价,需要很长一段时间舔*舐伤口。These daysso long asbigClancombined threats with inducements, transformed the watch-dognot to be difficultChallenger, especiallythattypethinks that the compromisewas onlytemporary, after restoringcompletely, sooner or latermustinitiateClan of duel, basicallyarrivedcannotsound the Iron Sand CitySaintclockfinally.
这段时间大氏族只要加以威逼利诱,将挑战者转化成看门狗并不困难,特别是那种认为妥协只是暂时的,等恢复完全后迟早都要发起决斗的氏族,基本上到最后都没能敲响铁砂城的圣钟。Becausewill have newChallengerto appearat that time, sweeps awayto be eliminated the watch-dog.
因为那时又会有新的挑战者出现,将看门狗横扫出局。BigClanin this way, throughoutmaintainsoneselfwill not be falling intoto the difficult position of having a fracture.
大氏族正是通过这种方式,始终保持着自身不会陷入到伤筋动骨的困境中。Now the iron whipcrawledin the fourthposition, even ifChallengerinitiates the duelimmediately, it is estimated thatwill not look forhim, therefore the smalloasischanges handsby no meansanyimportantmatter.
如今铁鞭已经爬到了第四的位置上,就算挑战者立刻发起决斗,估计也不会找上他,因此小绿洲易手并非什么要紧之事。Butpresented the northpersonto be different.
但出现北方人就不同了。For examplebeforehandQueen of Clear Water, givesIron Sand Cityto create not smallchaotic--, even ifdegenerates intoslave and goonin fact, will havemanypeopleto yearn fornorth sidethatpieceforever the greenplace. Going for shelter of twolatentChallengermade the smalloasisoneempty, causing the followingpersonto initiate the sacredchallengewith ease, whilethatconfusion, Lubakaseized the opportunity, smoothlybecame fourth largest Clan.
例如之前的碧水女王,就给铁砂城造成过不小的混乱——哪怕沦为实际上的奴隶和打手,也会有许多人向往着北边那片永绿之地。两个潜在挑战者的投奔让小绿洲一下空了出来,导致后续之人可以轻松发起神圣挑战,也正是趁着那场混乱,鲁巴卡抓住机会,顺利成为了第四位的大氏族。Now, whatclever trick do theywantto play?
现在,他们又想要耍什么诡计?„Is staring atthatgroup of people, inquiresclearly the matter.”Heturns roundtohand/subordinateto tell, „the northpersonfromthatcity, many people, is bringinganyweapon, anything that hitspays attention to--I to know!”
“去盯着那帮人,把事情打探清楚。”他回身对手下吩咐道,“北方人从那座城市来,有多少人,带着什么武器,打的什么注意——我都要知道!”„Yes, SirClan Head!”
“是,族长大人!”Perhaps, heshoulddiscusswithotherbigClanwell.
或许,他该跟其他大氏族好好商量一番。
The Extreme Southern Regioncustom, did not allowbystandermeddles!极南境的规矩,决不容许外人来插手!
......
……
When toafternoon, hand/subordinatehas the news that commandLubaka Bloodwhiphas not daredto believe.
到下午时,手下却带回来了一个令鲁巴卡.血鞭不敢置信的消息。„What did yousay? Brave Sand Clan?”
“你说什么?傲沙氏族?”„Theyindeedlike thisdeclared that the flag in oasischanged into the Brave Sandwarmarkcompletely, Ialsosawthatwas treated asPrincessBrave Sand of slave trade! Shebecame the goddess, is calling the newclansman, the responderas ifalsomany!”
“他们的确是这样宣称的,绿洲里的旗帜已经全部换成了傲沙的战纹,我还看到了那名被当作奴隶贩卖的傲沙公主!她已经成为了神女,正在召集新的族人,响应者似乎还不少!”This...... Howpossible?
这……怎么可能?Lubakadoes not know nothingabout the northkingdom, the goddesswas regarded asexistence of evilin the Greycastlepersoneyescompletely, if the fate of Sandpeoplemaidservanthas calculatedenoughpitifully, then a goddessslavewill not have the possibility of slightlyturning over/standing up. Butnow, shewon the northperson'ssupport, in turnleadsthemto return toExtreme Southern Regionby the stance of avenger?鲁巴卡并非对北方王国一无所知,神女在灰堡人眼中完全被视作邪恶的存在,如果沙民女奴的下场已算足够悲惨,那么一个神女奴隶更是不会有丝毫翻身的可能。但现在,她是怎么赢得北方人的支持,反过来带着他们以复仇者的姿态重返极南境的?Hefelt an indescribableabsurdness, as well asfaintpanic.
他感到了一股难以言喻的荒谬,以及隐隐的恐慌。
The Mojinpersonhas been suppressedindesert, is nottheylikes the desert, because theyare not always ableto contendwithGreycastledirectly. If the opposite partywantsto be disadvantageoustoIron Sand City, eachClanmayunite as one resistanceoutcomer, mayobtainBrave Sand Clan that the northpersonhas supportedonlyto aim atoneby some chance, other can Clanalsobe closewith the iron whip?莫金人一直被压制在沙漠之中,并不是他们喜欢沙漠,而是因为他们始终无法与灰堡正面抗衡。若是对方想要对铁砂城不利,各个氏族或许会团结一致对抗外来者,可万一获得了北方人支持的傲沙氏族只针对自己一家,其他氏族还会和铁鞭紧密相连吗?This is almost onedoes not need the answerissue.
这几乎是一个不需要回答的问题。Damn!
该死!Hemakes an effortto poundwine cup on tableto the ground, steps on a footfiercely, makinghimchange tooneclearfragments.
他用力将桌上的酒杯砸向地面,又猛地踩上一脚,令其化作一摊晶莹的碎屑。Ifyouwantto pass the sacredduel, incoming telegrampastvengefulness for father's murder, althoughcomes! Lubakathinkswickedly,northpersonperhapsweaponexcellent, large number of people, butat the duel, MojinSandpeopleis the fiercestwarrior! Iwill makeyouknow,anythingis called the desperatetaste!
如果你想通过神圣决斗,来报当年的杀父之仇,就尽管来吧!鲁巴卡恶狠狠地想,北方人或许武器精良、人数众多,但在决斗上,莫金沙民才是最勇猛的武士!我会让你知道,什么叫做绝望的滋味!At this moment, underanothermasterenteredhishall, „SirClan Head, Brave Sand Clansent forsending a gift.”
就在这时,又一名手下进入了他的大厅,“族长大人,傲沙氏族派人送来了一份礼物。”„What?”Lubakafelt that headblue veinjumps, „gift?”
“什么?”鲁巴卡感到头上青筋直跳,“礼物?”„Yes, onplaceoutsidegarden.”
“是,就放在外面的庭园里。”„Leadsmeto have a look,”heclenches jawsto say.
“带我去看看,”他咬牙切齿道。
......
……Thatis a giganticwooden crate, approximatelyonepersonis long, halfperson of width, looks likewithgeneral that severalordinaryplanksplicingbecome, fourbrad nailshave the nail, the semblancecannot seeanydifference.
那是一个硕大的木箱,约一人长,半人宽,就像是用几块普通的木板拼接而成的一般,四角钉有铁钉,外表看不出任何异样。„Delivers the person who itcomes?”Lubakaasked.
“送它来的人呢?”鲁巴卡问。„Walked.”
“已经走了。”„Cameseveral?”
“来了几个?”„...... Only hasoneperson.”
“呃……只有一人。”„A person?”Hehas selected the brow, went forwardto kick a boxfoot, the wooden cratetumbledimmediatelyseveral, andsent out , in collisionsound--as ifalsothought ofotherthings. According tothisweight, is almost equaltohollowgeneral.
“一个人?”他挑了挑眉头,上前踢了箱子一脚,木箱顿时翻滚了好几圈,并发出哐当哐当的碰撞声——里面似乎还装着其他东西。只是按照这重量来看,几乎相当于空心的一般。Cuts off limbwith the flesh, personskin that peels? Besidesthreatensandblusters, hewill unable to find out the opposite partyalsoto deliveranythingto come.
是断肢与血肉,还是剥下来的人皮?除了恐吓和虚张声势外,他想不出对方还会送什么过来。„Moves to the masonry,”Lubakacoldlysaid,„Imusthave a look atthemto wantbut actuallyto useanytrick.”
“搬到石堡里去,”鲁巴卡冷冷地说道,“我倒要看看他们想耍什么花招。”
