1261年11月13日早晨。Rainstormis unexpected.
一场暴雨不期而至。
The gust of windhowls, the continuoussilver threadcrashesfrom the gloomysky, coversentireNovigrad.
疾风呼啸,连绵不绝的银丝从晦暗的天空坠落,笼罩住整座诺城。Is throwing over the spaciousblackskincape, highshorttwoforms, shuttle back and forthin the wateravenue.
披着宽大的黑色皮斗篷,一高一矮两道身影,穿梭在积水的大街。Ifapproached the observationto discover,felltotwopeople of rainwater, byinvisiblethin filmseparating, the lightyellow lightGlimmercirculation, they were all skicedin the torrential downpour, actually the water dropdid not moistenstrangely.
如果凑近了观察就会发现,落到两人身上的雨水,全被一层无形的薄膜弹开,淡淡的黄光闪烁流转,他们在倾盆大雨中疾行,却诡异地滴水不沾。
After tenminutes .
十分钟后。Two peoplearrive atnorthNovigradfrom the Novigradsoutheasterncivilian area, outside a dignifiedsilencecourtyard.
两人从诺城东南方的平民区来到诺城北部,一座庄严肃静的院落之外。Thickunginned cottonarmorandwaistwearlong sword, byput out a handto blocktwo peoplein the gateeavetaking shelter from the raingate guard.
一名厚实棉甲、腰佩长剑,靠在门檐避雨门卫伸手拦下了两人。„Who youare, wantsto do?!”
“你们是什么人,想干嘛?!”
The capepersonlifts the hood, reveals a younghandsomeface, withdark goldpupil.
斗篷人掀开兜帽,露出一张年轻英俊的脸,和暗金的瞳孔。„Viper SchoolWitcherRoyandLetho, madewith the Boggartstewardin the vanillahotelyesterday, todayvisitsespecially.”
“蛇派猎魔人罗伊、雷索,昨天在香草旅社跟波格特管家有约,今日特来拜访。”
The ferocious-lookinggate guardreceivedto inlay the gold/metalname card, narrows the eyesis fighting the callus, looked at carefullyup and downtwo people, searchesrepeatedly, determined that has not carriedanyfatalweapon and dangerousitem.
满脸横肉的门卫接过镶金的名片,眯着斗鸡眼,将两人上下端详了一遍,反复搜身,确定没有携带任何致命武器、危险道具。Thenknocks on a door.
这才敲了敲门。„Katz——”
“卡兹——”Twofully-armedguardsopened the front door, beckons, bringingWitcherto step a neatgreen slatroad.
两名全副武装的守卫拉开了大门,招了招手,带着猎魔人踏上一条整洁的青石板路。

高墙之上的哨塔里,还有位端着手弩的披着雨衣的守卫在警戒。
Before the attentionputs the body, dark goldpupilquietlybecomesprofound.
注意力放到身前,暗金的瞳孔悄然变得深邃。Inspaciouscourtyard, except forflower-bed, mostthendresses upall sorts of strange and unusualmilitants, the bodyputs oncottonarmorandchain armor, evenis favoring the chest and woollegis going against the kerchief, in the handis graspinglong swordandshort-sword, singlehand axe, assortedweapon.
宽敞的院落里,除了花坛,最多的便是打扮千奇百怪的武装人员,身上穿着棉甲、锁子甲,甚至袒着胸膛和毛腿顶着头巾,手中握着长剑、短剑,单手斧,各色武器。Thisgroup of peopleallarewell-trained, the expert of one in a hundred cream of the crop, average7and8pointsaboutclose combatAttributeswantonhighonesectioncompared with the average man, andhasweaponMasterySkill.
这群人全都是训练有素、百里挑一的好手,平均七、八点左右的近战属性比常人要高上一截,并且都有兵器专精技能。

Obviouslydoes not welcometwounexpected visitors.罗伊粗略一数,大概二十多位,徘徊在左、中、右三栋主要的建筑物外,聚集在屋檐下避雨,他们看向猎魔人的眼神,充满了愤怒和挑衅,几乎是怒目而视。显然不欢迎两个不速之客。Thisshouldbe the sequela that other dayAuckesandSerrithad.
这该是上回奥克斯和瑟瑞特留下的后遗症。In any event, the entiremansionalertsternstems fromWitcherto expect,is as good asanyPrison that detains the important criminal.
无论如何,整座府邸戒备之森严还是出乎猎魔人预料,不亚于任何一座关押要犯的监狱。„Willy GangBoss, but also is really discreteenough.”
“威利帮的老大,还真够谨慎。”Thinks,Royfeels relaxedimmediately.
想了想,罗伊又随即释然。Alphonsetakes the world'sliveliestcity, one of the biggestchieftains, has the innumerablegrayindustry, involves the dense and numerousinterest chains, manypeoplelivebyhim, butmanywishing one couldeatitsflesh, orsubstitute.阿尔方斯作为世界上最繁华的城市,最大的头目之一,拥有数不清的灰色产业,牵扯到密密麻麻的利益链条,许多人靠他生活,但更多的恨不得食其血肉,或取而代之。Hemustmaintain the vigilancefrequently, maintains itselfsafely, even if at home.
他必须时时刻刻保持警惕,维护自身安全,哪怕是在家里。Two peopleobserves the personneldistribution in manorcontinually, whileforwardswith the guideamenable, arrives atoutsidemidpointred brickgreentiles and finethreevillas.
两人一边持续观察庄园内的人员分布,一边顺从地随着领路人一路向前,来到正中央一栋红砖绿瓦、精致的三层别墅外。
A Planecolorgloomy, put on the investigatemiddle-aged manto walk4.
一位面色阴沉、穿着考究的中年男人走了出四来。„two Masters, sinceis willingto go to the manor, has made the wisestdecision.” The Boggartcorners of the mouthholdto smile, stretch out the witheredpalm, graspedgraspingwithtwo peopleintimately, „welcometo join the Willy Gangbig family, waits forunderseveralworld the wrestlecompetitionto start, twotakeFists of Fury, Iwill makeyouunderstand,anythingis a heaven!”
“两位大师既然愿意来到庄园,想必已经做出最明智的决定。”波格特嘴角噙笑,伸出枯槁的手掌,亲热地和两人握了握,“欢迎加入威利帮的大家庭,等过几天地下格斗大赛开始,两位拿下愤怒之拳,我会让你们明白,什么是天堂!”Saying, heputs out a handto directtoward, Witcherunloads the capeto give the servant, entersoneresplendently in gold and jade green, elegantis.
说着,他伸手往里一引,猎魔人卸下斗篷递给佣人,进入一处金碧辉煌、雍容华贵的所在。

脚下铺着柔软坚韧、色彩鲜艳的地毯,舒适的触感,让人忍不住想脱下鞋袜,光脚放肆地踩上一踩。Raised the head.
一抬头。

天花板的水晶魔法灯洒下暖黄色的光辉,照出四面布满精致花纹的墙面,墙上也并非千篇一律,装饰着一幅幅“大作”,但不是寻常贵族家庭里的悬挂的风景油画、或者肖像画。Allmounts the perfectpoetry, includingfamouspoetDandelionwritings——
全都是装裱完善的诗歌,包括著名诗人丹德里恩的大作——«The Adversities of Loving»

还有几首不那么雅致、荒诞怪异的诗歌——Is , there „moo”and„squirting”and„woof”and„”?
是谁,在那儿“哞”、“唧”、“汪”、“啊”?

“这是所谓的越缺啥,越向往啥?”Does not have the least bitartcellobviously, actuallyconducts the poetryamateurto get togetherfixed time, poses as a cultured person.
明明没有半点艺术细胞,却定时举办诗歌爱好者聚会,附庸风雅。Reallylovesabsolutely!

除了裱好的诗歌,螺旋扶梯下的走廊间,全副武装的侍卫边,隔三差五还摆放着昂贵的艺术品,比如木架子上的华丽板甲、玻璃橱柜里的罕见古籍。无一不彰显出阿尔方斯·威利,惊人的财富。

The stewardsreceivedrightmost a buildingofficetwo people, the designationservantselected the fireplace, poured intotwocups of steaming hottea, satopposite of the square table.
管家将两人领到了一楼最右边的办公室,指派佣人点起壁炉,泡上两杯热气腾腾的茶水,一屁股坐在方桌对面。„two Masters, werubbishare not manysaid,Iintroducenowin detail the undergroundWrestling Competitionrule, as well asButcher, Collector and Beggar Kingelite force, theyhadwhatstrengthandweakness.”Boggartsolemnly said, „toguarantee the competitionis absolutely safe! Must havethesepreparations.”
“两位大师,咱们废话不多说,我现在就详细介绍地下格斗比赛的规则,以及屠夫、收藏家、乞丐王手下的精兵强将,他们有什么优势、弱点。”波格特沉声道,“为了确保比赛万无一失!少不了这些准备。”„Waits a bit the moment...”RoyandLethoexchanged a look, according to the planrefuted, „the Boggartsteward, the rewardaboutcomission, Ialsoa littlesuggested...”
“稍等片刻…”罗伊和雷索交换了一个眼神,按照计划反驳,“波格特管家,关于委托的报酬,我还有点建议…”„,” The Boggartcomplexionchanges, both handsare supporting the desk, the bodyleans forward, makes a posture that is full of the oppressionstrength, „saidto look, if nottooexcessive, IcancomplyforBoss.”
“哦,”波格特脸色一变,双手撑着书桌,身体前倾,做出一种充满压迫力的姿势,“说说看,如果不是太过分,我可以替老大答应下来。”„Sorry, mysuggestionrelatedpersonal privacy, is really hardto open the mouth.” The Roypursedlip, makes an awkwardappearance, „mustwithAlphonseBossfacing the face-to-face talk.”
“抱歉,我的建议有关个人隐私,实在难以开口。”罗伊抿了抿嘴唇,做出一副为难的模样,“必须跟阿尔方斯老大面对面谈。”„Thisis the minimumrespect, if not good, thiscooperationstops there.”
“这是最起码的尊重,如果不行,这次的合作就此作罢。”Boggartapproached the rattan chairbackward, rubs the chinto consider the moment.波格特向后靠近了藤椅,揉着下巴考虑片刻。„Thisrequest, Imustask for instructionswithBoss, in addition, even ifhecomplies...”Helooked atsilentbig baldy, „Master Letho must remain.”
“这个要求,我得跟老大请示一遍,此外,即便他答应…”他看了一眼沉默的光头大汉,“雷索大师也得留下来。”„You can only a person!”
“你只能一个人!”Boggartwants saying that weaponlessyoungWitcher, undernumeroussurrounding, cannot turnwhatspray.波格特想道,一个手无寸铁的年轻猎魔人,在重重包围之下,也翻不起什么浪花。Roycompliedhappily, after fiveminutes, left the centralbuildingwith the steward, enters the house of left hand, went tothreebuildingsdirectly.罗伊痛快地应了下来,五分钟后,跟着管家离开了中央的楼房,进入左手的房子,径直上了三楼。Along the spiralstaircase with a handrailupwardprocess, Royheard a loudrespitesoundindistinctly, and squeal of woman, transmitsfrom some house in secondfloor.
沿着螺旋扶梯向上过程中,罗伊隐约听到了一个粗重的喘息声,以及女人的尖叫声,从二楼的某间房子里传来。
Before hearrives atthreebuildingmidpoints the rooms, the squealturned intowailing, weakwailing, whois bearing the pain?
等他走到三楼正中央的房间前,尖叫声变成了哀嚎,微弱的哀嚎,有谁在承受痛苦?Witcherknits the brows.猎魔人不禁皱了皱眉。„Madeyoube laughed, Grandmaster...”Boggartnoticeshislookchange, „young masteris young, is quite willful, occasionallywill want to play all the timeexcessively, does not needto care.”
“让您见笑了,大师…”波格特注意到他的神色变化,“少爷年轻,比较任性,偶尔会贪玩过度,不必在意。”„Katz——”front dooropens,
“卡兹——”大门开启,

昏黄的灯光照出一间装饰华丽的房间。Sitsabove the swivel chairtogether, turns away from the Witcherformto heave in sight.
一道坐在转椅之上,背对猎魔人的身影映入眼帘。Sidehim, fivesoldier, Sorcerer.
在他身边,还有五个士兵,一位术士。
