在我耳边传来的信息旁边,有一个巨大的灰色球体漂浮在空中。
Its inside couldn’t be spied on. Most likely, every single top-ranked Demon King and Archangel was in there, having a conference right about now.
它的内部不能被监视。最有可能的是,每一个顶级恶魔王和大天使都在那里,现在正在开会。
And it was also quite likely that the ‘Good’ and ‘Evil’ were talking crap about <Kim Dok-Ja Company> and ‘Demon King of Salvation’ in one voice, too.
而且很有可能“善”和“恶”也在用同一种声音说金道子公司和“救世魔王”的坏话。
“Kim Dok-Ja.”
“金道子。”
I flinched and looked back to find Han Su-Yeong staring at me.
我退缩了一下,回头一看,韩素英正盯着我看。
I spoke first. “Whenever you call out my name lately, I can’t help but get scared first. It’s like, you must’ve caused another accident.”
我先说的。“最近每当你叫我的名字,我总是忍不住先害怕。就好像,你肯定又造成了一起事故。”
“It’s you who causes accidents instead,” complained Han Su-Yeong, before shifting her gaze over to the sphere and asking me. “What are they really thinking about?”
韩素英抱怨道:“是你造成了事故。”然后她把目光移到了球体上,问我。“他们到底在想什么?”
“What do you mean?”
“什么意思?”
“Isn’t this whole thing unfolding too smoothly?”
“这整件事是不是进展得太顺利了?”
“It’s because they don’t want to die, either.”
“这也是因为他们不想死。”
“You really think that’s all?”
“你真的认为这就是全部?”
She narrowed her eyes and glared at me.
她眯起眼睛瞪着我。
[Fable, ‘Predictive Plagiarism’, is continuing its storytelling.]
[寓言,‘预测性剽窃’,正在继续它的叙事方式。]
Judging from the whitish fragments of the Fable floating around, it seemed that she had activated ‘Predictive Plagiarism’ and kept it up ever since that conference had commenced.
从《寓言》中苍白的片段判断,似乎是她激活了“预测剽窃”,并且自从那次会议开始以来一直保持着这种状态。
I asked her. “What do you think, then?”
我问她,“你觉得怎么样?”
“They are just too quiet. Even if they are terrified of the Apocalypse Dragon…. Something just feels off, you know.”
“他们太安静了。即使他们害怕天启之龙......你知道,有些事情就是感觉不对劲。”
Indeed, the instincts of an author could be very sharp; actually, I agreed with her opinion, too.
事实上,一个作家的直觉可能是非常敏锐的;事实上,我也同意她的视角。
A conference of ‘Good’ and ‘Evil’ - it sure sounded nice. However…. The Metatron I knew would never back off in such circumstances. He was the type of guy who’d sacrifice anyone in order to perfectly fulfil the Absolute Good’s premise.
“善”与“恶”的会议——听起来确实不错。但是..。我认识的梅塔特隆在这种情况下绝不会退缩。他是那种为了完美地实现绝对善的前提而牺牲任何人的人。
I stared at the grey sphere and spoke. “I don’t know what they are cooking up over on that side, but there is a way to find out what will happen in the future.”
我盯着那个灰色的球体说话。“我不知道他们在那边在酝酿什么,但我们有办法知道未来会发生什么。”
“What is that?”
“那是什么?”
I looked straight at Han Su-Yeong. And soon, her jaw dropped.
我直直地看着韩素英,不一会儿,她的下巴就掉了下来。
“God damn it, we had that method, didn’t we.”
“该死的,我们有那种方法,不是吗?”
Whether it was a conference or war, it’d come to an end in the next nine hours.
无论是会议还是战争,都会在接下来的九个小时内结束。
And if it was that sort of a near future, then we knew of a being who could read it better than anyone else in this world.
如果是在不久的将来,那么我们知道有一种生物比世界上任何其他生物都更善于阅读。
We quickly dashed towards the cabin at the rear. The thing was, the person we were looking for was already with us by now.
我们迅速向后面的小屋冲去。问题是,我们要找的人现在已经和我们在一起了。
“Hey, Miss Prophet!”
“嘿,先知小姐!”
We barged in to the room, only to find an unexpected guest there. Yu Jung-Hyeok and his scary scowl were busy grabbing onto Anna Croft’s collars at that moment.
我们闯进房间,结果发现那里有一位不速之客。此时,余重赫和他那可怕的愁容正忙着抓住安娜·克罗夫特的衣领。
He spoke. “….What bullshit are you talking about?”
他说,“......你在胡说些什么?”
“It is exactly as I said.”
“正如我所说的。”
The shocked Han Su-Yeong hurriedly shouted out. “Hey, you crazy bastard! What are you doing?!”
震惊的韩素英连忙喊道:“嘿,你这个疯子!你在干什么?!”
Yu Jung-Hyeok looked back at us with an emotionless expression before releasing Anna Croft’s collars. She formed a refreshing grin after discovering us and waved her hand.
在解开安娜·克罗夫特的衣领之前,余正赫回头看着我们,面无表情。发现我们后,她咧嘴笑了笑,并挥了挥手。
“Thank you for saving me. As expected of the ‘Demon King of Salvation’.”
“谢谢你救了我。不出所料,我是‘救世魔王’。”
“Well, I wasn’t really trying to save you or anything, but….”
“嗯,我并不是真的想救你,但是......”
“You came to see me for the same reason, I suppose?”
“我想,你来看我也是为了同样的原因吧?”
Han Su-Yeong and I stared at Yu Jung-Hyeok. And he glared right back as if to ask why we were looking at him.
韩素妍和我盯着余正赫。他瞪着眼睛,好像在问我们为什么要看他。
As expected, he was really quick with things like this. He came up with a solution to this situation way quicker than us, in other words. Han Su-Yeong began gnashing her teeth as she was unhappy about this. Sadly, though, he didn’t carry the expression of a victor.
不出所料,他对这样的事情反应很快。换句话说,他比我们更快地想出了解决这个问题的办法。韩素妍开始咬牙切齿,因为她对此很不高兴。遗憾的是,他没有胜利者的表情。
Anna Croft spoke. “Let me get right to it, then. I can’t see the future.”
安娜·克罗夫特说,“那么,让我直说吧,我看不到未来。”
“What do you mean by that?”
“你这是什么意思?”
Several thoughts floated up in my head, then.
这时,我的脑海里浮现出几个念头。
Now that I thought about it, Anna Croft couldn’t predict the future related to me. I remembered that [the 4th Wall] had something to do with it. What did she say back then? Was it, there’s noise hiding the future as if someone drew graffiti all over it?
现在我想起来了,安娜·克罗夫特无法预测与我有关的未来。我记得[第四道长城]与此有关。她当时说了什么?是不是有噪音隐藏着未来,好像有人在上面涂鸦一样?
But then, Anna Croft was shaking her head. “It’s not the noise obscuring the future, but I simply can’t read it at all. It’s not as if someone has doodled on the page, but more like the page with the doodling on it didn’t exist in the first place.”
可是这时候,安娜·克罗夫特摇摇头。“不是噪音模糊了未来,而是我根本无法读懂它。这并不是说有人在页面上乱涂乱画,而更像是有涂鸦的页面根本就不存在。”
Han Su-Yeong and I exchanged glances. An ominous foreboding slowly crept up over me.
韩素英和我交换了一下眼神,一种不祥的预感慢慢地爬上我的心头。
“Kim Dok-Ja, this…..”
“金道子,这个......”
Not like doodlings on a page, but the page itself had disappeared. No matter how hard I thought about it, there could only be one type of future like that.
不像在纸上乱涂乱画,但是纸本身已经消失了。不管我多么努力地想,未来只有一种类型。
“….Can it be?”
“...会是这样吗?”
As if it was waiting for this moment, messages suddenly floated up in the air.
仿佛它在等待这一时刻,信息突然飘浮在空中。
[Chaos Points is rising up by one point.]
[混乱点上升了一点]
[Current Chaos Points: 83]
[当前混乱点:83]
“But, it hasn’t been 30 minutes yet?”
“但是,还没到30分钟呢?”
“It’s not rising up because the time has elapsed,” said Yu Jung-Hyeok in a hardened voice.
“它没有上升是因为时间已经过去了,”YuJung-Hyeok用强硬的声音说。
Time hadn’t passed by, yet the Chaos Points had risen up. In that case, there could only be one possibility.
时间还没有过去,混沌点已经出现了。在这种情况下,只有一种可能性。
[Members from the same camp have clashed!]
[同一阵营的成员发生了冲突!]
[Current Chaos Points: 84]
[当前混乱点:84]
Someone was trying to destroy this world.
有人想要毁灭这个世界。
