The first shockwave gradually petered out after Kyrgios joined us. The difference between three lightning-related Constellations working together and four was rather noticeable.
在Kyrgios加入我们之后,第一波冲击波逐渐消失了。三个与闪电有关的星座一起工作,与四个星座之间的区别是相当明显的。
Not only that, but a portion of Constellations also lent us their Probability after Kyrgios showed up, and for the first time ever, our own Probability surpassed the Apocalypse Dragon’s shockwave.
不仅如此,当Kyrgios出现后,一部分星座也向我们提供了他们的可能性,而且有史以来第一次,我们自己的可能性超过了天启龙的冲击波。
[Uwooooooh-!]
[ Uwooooooh-! ]
Scorched black by the electrical wave, Thor and Dionysus began roaring out as if they had gone half-mad. The latter had drunk such a large quantity of wine that his face was completely red, even though the rest of his body remained jet-black.
雷神托尔和狄俄尼索斯被电波烧焦了,他们开始咆哮起来,仿佛他们已经半疯了。后者喝了这么多的酒,他的脸全红了,尽管他身体的其余部分仍然是乌黑的。
[Booze is going down so smoothly, it’s so amaaaazing!] [Now I’m really curious about the taste of <Olympus> label booze. Give me some!]
(酒喝得太顺了,太让人吃惊了!)(现在我真的对奥林巴斯标签酒的味道很好奇。给我一些!]
By the time the storm of aftermath for the first shockwave drew to a close, the two Constellations became completely drunk out of their minds. Kyrgios stared at them with criticising eyes before asking me. [My disciple. Are these fools your comrades?]
当第一波冲击波带来的风暴接近尾声的时候,两个星座已经彻底醉倒在他们的脑海里。在问我之前,Kyrgios用批评的眼神盯着他们。我的徒弟。这些傻瓜是你的同志吗
“No, total strangers.”
“不,完全是陌生人。”
[First Phase has concluded.]
[第一阶段已完成。]
[Congratulations. You have safely negotiated the first shockwave of the ‘First Tail-Flick’!] ….We did it. We managed to withstand that damn tail flick’s first hurdle.
恭喜你。你已经安全地通过了“第一次甩尾”的第一次冲击波!]我们成功了。我们设法经受住了甩尾的第一个障碍。
I looked behind me. “Everyon….”
我回头看了看,“大家......”
I couldn’t continue on. Because, a desolate, ruined landscape greeted me, with a sea of corpses burnt by the electrical waves filling it up. Some of them were swept up by the electrical energy we couldn’t hold back, while some of them died after their Incarnation Bodies exploded, unable to deal with the storm of aftermath taking place nearby.
我不能继续下去了。因为,迎接我的是一片荒凉的废墟,一片被电波烧焦的尸体海洋。他们中的一些人被我们无法控制的电能所吞噬,而另一些人则在他们的化身身体爆炸后死去,无法应对附近发生的善后风暴。
The five hundred-plus Constellations were reduced to less than half that number through just one encounter. What an utterly fraudulent death toll that was.
通过一次遭遇,五百多个星座的数量减少到了不到一半。这是多么完全欺骗性的死亡人数啊。
….Could I even claim that we managed to endure when it was like this?
我能说我们在这种情况下挺过来了吗?
It was just the first phase, so what would we do about the second and the third one?
这只是第一阶段,那么我们该如何处理第二阶段和第三阶段呢?
I raised my head and saw the messages from the stars brightening the night sky as if they were losing their minds.
我抬起头,看到星星发出的信息在夜空中熠熠生辉,仿佛他们失去了理智。
[The absolute majority of Constellations are stunned by the difficulty of this scenario!] [Many Constellations are lodging complaints at the Bureau in regards to the applicable scenario’s Probability!] [A portion of Constellations are arguing that this scenario cannot exist.] [The majority of Constellations are requesting for the scenario’s cancellation.]
绝大多数星座都被这种情况的困难所震惊[许多星座就适用情况的可能性向调查局提出投诉!][一部分星座认为这种情况不可能发生][大多数星座都要求取消该场景。]
Scenario’s cancellation, was it.
情节被取消了,是吗。
What a funny thing this was, there still being idiots daydreaming about stuff like that.
这是多么有趣的事情啊,现在仍然有白痴在做这样的白日梦。
[Applicable scenario cannot be cancelled.]
[适用的情况不能取消]
[All Constellations within the applicable scenario’s area are urged to prepare for the next phase.]
[在适用场景的区域内的所有星座都被敦促为下一阶段做准备。]
No, the apocalypse would carry on.
不,世界末日还会继续。
While the messages from the Constellations freaking out continued on, the baptism of sponsorship messages also rained down from the other side of the sky as well.
当来自星座的信息被吓坏了的时候,赞助的洗礼信息也从天空的另一边雨点般落下。
[Constellation, ‘Lightning Throne’, is looking closely at you.] [Constellation, ‘Spear That Draws the Boundaries of the Sea’, is glaring at you.] [Constellation, ‘Great Mother God Who Created Man out of Earth’, is getting interested in the Fable you might earn.] [Final Scenario’s Constellations are focusing on you.] [Final Scenario’s Constellations are enjoying your actions.]
[星座,‘闪电宝座’,正在密切注视着你。][星座,《划海之矛》,正在瞪着你。][《星座》,《伟大的母神创造了地球上的人类》,你可能会对这个寓言产生兴趣。][最后一幕的星座聚焦在你身上。][最终方案的星座正在享受你的行动。]
[3,000,000 Coins have been sponsored.]
[已赞助了300万枚硬币。]
The Constellations of the ‘Final Scenario’, including the likes of the ‘Lightning Throne’ Zeus, the ‘Spear That Draws the Boundaries of the Sea’ Poseidon, and even the ‘Great Mother God Who Created Man out of Earth’, Nuwa.
最后一幕中的星座,包括诸如闪电宝座宙斯、绘制海洋边界的长矛、甚至还有创造了人类的伟大母神Nuwa。
The existences lording over the top stratosphere of <Star Stream> who didn’t participate in this scenario, but didn’t feel threatened by the unfolding events from the get-go, were there at the ‘Final Scenario’.
那些没有参与这一场景,但是从一开始就没有感到受到威胁的明星流顶层的存在,在“最终场景”中出现了。
The location for that scenario was excluded from the ‘First Tail-flick’s’ area of destruction.
该场景的位置被排除在“第一次甩尾”的破坏区域之外。
Even the destruction of their fellow Constellations was nothing more than a type of entertainment to those on the cusp of reaching the ‘end’ of this world.
对于那些即将到达这个世界末日的人来说,即使是星座的毁灭也只不过是一种娱乐。
[Second Phase will commence ten minutes later.]
[第二阶段将于十分钟后展开]
A ten-minute interval, was it.
休息十分钟,是吗。
I breathed a sigh of relief and looked back at Kyrgios. I sensed that his Status had grown even greater than before.
我如释重负地叹了口气,回头看看Kyrgios。我感觉到他的地位比以前更高了。
“You must’ve reached another enlightenment, Master.”
“你一定是达到了另一种境界,师父。”
[It seems that you’re now at the level to discern that, at least.]
(看来你现在至少已经达到了辨别这一点的水平。)
Kyrgios’s complaining voice sounded thorny. Not only were his looks enough to slap Yu Jung-Hyeok’s face silly, but even the way he spoke slapped the latter silly, too.
基尔吉奥斯的抱怨声音听起来很刺耳。不仅仅是因为他的外表愚蠢地扇了余正赫的脸,甚至是他说话的方式也愚蠢地扇了余正赫的脸。
Yi Ji-Hye sprinted to where we were and began shaking me by the shoulders. “Ahjussi!! I thought we’d end up as grilled squid, you know!”
易智慧冲到我们所在的地方,开始摇着我的肩膀。“大叔!我还以为我们会变成烤鱿鱼呢,你知道!”
And why did this kid have to go and use that kind of figure of speech….
为什么这个孩子要用这种比喻..。
“Kyrgios grandpa! Where’s my Grand Master? Didn’t she come with you?”
“基叔爷爷!我的大师在哪里?她没有和你一起来吗?”
[The Breaking the Sky Saint has some matter to take care of first, so she’ll arrive later.] He replied in a cold tone of voice and peered at me from the corners of his eyes before turning his head away. [I thought that my disciple would’ve been half-dead by now and came in a hurry. But I see that he’s far healthier than I hoped.]
[破碎天空的圣徒有些事情要先处理,所以她会晚点到。]他用冷淡的语气回答,转过头来,从眼角凝视着我。我以为我的徒弟现在已经半死不活了,所以赶紧来了。但是我发现他比我想象的要健康得多
I couldn’t tell whether he was rueful or relieved from his tone of voice.
我不知道他的语气是懊悔还是宽慰。
“If you arrived any later, never mind half-dead, I’d have been really dead, you know. Let’s not worry about that, though. We need to get ready for the second phase.”
”“你要是再晚来一点,更不用说半死不活了,你知道,我已经真的死了。不过,我们还是不要担心这个了。我们需要为第二阶段做好准备。”
As if he was waiting for it, Yu Jung-Hyeok approached us as soon as my words ended.
我一说完,余正赫就来找我们,好像他在等着。
“According to the tale of Harmagedon passed down, the attribute for the ‘Second Shockwave’ is intense heat.”
“根据Harmagedon流传下来的故事,‘第二次冲击波’的特征是高温。”
The Apocalypse Dragon’s tail in the far-off distance was visibly getting red-hot. Although it looked to be moving at a very slow speed from here, the truth was, that tail was vibrating at a scarcely-believable speed right now.
在遥远的远方,“天启之龙”的尾巴显然变得炙热起来。虽然它看起来从这里以非常缓慢的速度移动,但事实是,那条尾巴现在正以难以置信的速度震动着。
That intense friction heat was powerful enough to distort the axis of space-time itself.
这种强烈的摩擦热足以扭曲时空轴本身。
Shin Yu-Seung grasped my jet-black scorched wrist and spoke. “Ahjussi, about the next phase….”
申玉升抓住我那被烧焦的乌黑的手腕说道:“大叔,关于下一阶段......”
The moment I saw the determined eyes of both her and Yi Gil-Yeong, I understood what they wanted to say. But Yu Jung-Hyeok butted in first. “You two must stay back.”
当我看到她和李吉英坚定的眼神时,我明白了他们想说什么。但是俞正赫首先插了一脚。“你们两个必须退后。”
That cold-sounding declaration caused the two kids to immediately lash back.
那个听起来很冷酷的声明立刻引起了两个孩子的反击。
“Why We’re also <Kim Dok-Ja Company>, you know!”
“为什么 你知道,我们也是金道子公司!”
“What do you know, you sooty bastard! I wasn’t asking you anyway!”
“你知道什么,你这个乌黑的混蛋!反正我也没问你!”
Yi Gil-Yeong’s provocation was met with Yu Jung-Hyeok’s emotionless reply. “This isn’t the issue of your willingness, but effectiveness. You two do not possess any Stigma or skills related to ‘fire’.”
李吉英的挑衅得到了俞正赫毫无表情的回答。“这不是你是否愿意的问题,而是效率的问题。你们两个没有任何污点,也没有任何‘解雇’的技能。”
In order to cancel the shockwave, we needed the ‘Statuses’ of a similar attribute. Unfortunately for Shin Yu-Seung and Yi Gil-Yeong, though, they didn’t possess any skills related to the fire-type attribute.
为了抵消冲击波,我们需要类似属性的“状态”。不幸的是,申玉升和易吉荣,虽然,他们没有任何技能相关的火型属性。
Gil-Yeong’s shoulders trembled as if he was furious; he eventually shouted out. “In that case, you also can’t fight, then! You don’t have stuff like that either!”
吉英的肩膀颤抖着,好像很生气;他最终大声喊了出来。“那样的话,你也不能打了!你也没有那样的东西!”
“But, I do.”
“但是,我知道。”
The corner of Yu Jung-Hyeok’s lips curled up as he lifted up his sword. And in the following second, the blade of the [Dark Heavenly Demon Sword] was enveloped in a fire-type sword aura.
于重赫举起剑时,嘴角翘了起来。在接下来的第二个瞬间,黑暗天堂恶魔之剑的剑刃被包裹在火焰状的剑光环中。
[Character, Yu Jung-Hyeok, has activated ‘Furious Flame God Blade Lv. ?’.]
[角色,于重赫,激活了‘狂怒火神刀刃吕 ?’]
“You… You…!”
“你...你...!”
I gently patted the tearful Yi Gil-Yeong’s shoulders.
我轻轻地拍了拍伊吉英泪流满面的肩膀。
As stated clearly in the original storyline, Yu Jung-Hyeok possessed almost every attribute there was.
正如在原始故事情节中明确指出的那样,俞正赫拥有几乎所有的属性。
….Hey, now that I thought about it, this guy also possessed lightning-based attribute, so why didn’t he lend a helping hand earlier?
嘿,现在我想想,这家伙也有闪电属性,那他为什么不早点伸出援助之手呢?
Yu Jung-Hyeok was glaring at me with his narrowed eyes. “Have you forgotten how you pleaded with us not to aid you?”
于重赫眯着眼睛瞪着我。“难道你忘了你是怎样恳求我们不要帮助你的吗?”
“Ahh, I did that, didn’t I,” I replied, before flinching just a little.
“啊,我做到了,不是吗?”我回答道,然后退缩了一下。
This guy, I haven’t said anything yet, so how did he read my mind?
这个家伙,我什么都没说,他怎么知道我在想什么?
“I shall announce the Constellations that will partake in the next phase.”
“我将宣布参与下一阶段的星座。”
Yu Jung-Hyeok, already finding himself in the middle of the Constellations, began his selection process.
于重赫,已经发现自己在星座的中间,开始了他的选择过程。
*
A calamity, unprecedented in the history of the <Star Stream>, had come knocking, and for the first time ever, Constellations were exposed to the threat of their complete death.
一场在星流历史上前所未有的灾难降临了,有史以来第一次,星座面临着彻底死亡的威胁。
Under Yu Jung-Hyeok’s command, these head-strong and proud Constellations found themselves positioned on the frontline one by one.
在余重赫的指挥下,这些自大而骄傲的星座一个接一个地站在前线。
[I’ve heard that you’re a Regressor. Does that mean you have information on this situation?]
[我听说你是一个回归者。这是否意味着你有这种情况的信息?]
“Of course I do.”
“我当然知道。”
A faint trace of trust could be seen within the eyes of the Constellations. The more urgent the situation was, the more valuable information would get. The rumours of Yu Jung-Hyeok doing the rounds among the Constellations were helping his attempt to instruct them.
在星座的眼睛里可以看到一丝信任的痕迹。情况越紧急,获得的信息就越有价值。于重赫在星座之间巡视的传闻帮助他试图指导他们。
He only took the blink of an eye to finish distributing the fighting force, standing in the middle of the frontline himself.
他自己站在前线的中间,眨眼间就完成了战斗部队的分配。
Han Su-Yeong watched him do that and muttered softly. “….Well, he’s the ‘Conquering King’, alright.”
韩素英看着他这样做,轻声嘀咕道:“......好吧,他是‘征服者之王’,没错。”
Jeong Hui-Won next to her nodded her head while polishing her sword. “Well, he does have some parts that we have to acknowledge, that’s for sure.”
站在她旁边的郑慧媛一边擦剑一边点头。“嗯,他确实有一些我们必须承认的部分,这是肯定的。”
“It pains me to say it, but after <Han Su-Yeong Corporation>, <Yu Jung-Hyeok Company> might be the next most suitable alternative for our Nebula’s name.”
“我不得不承认,继韩素英公司之后,余重赫公司可能是我们星云名称的下一个最合适的替代品。”
“Before the top representative changes, we should create a labour union first, though.”
“不过,在最高代表人选发生变化之前,我们应该首先创建一个工会。”
“A labour union, is it….”
“工会,是不是......”
Han Su-Yeong smirked deeply and looked at Jeong Hui-Won. They were working together in the advance party for the ‘intense heatwave’.
韩素妍冷笑着看着郑惠媛。他们在“热浪”的先遣队中一起工作。
The [Black Flame] of the Black Flame Dragon contained the Status of red flame, and Uriel’s [Hellfire] was permeated with the strength of Hell’s flames. So, it was the same thing as these two being the strongest main force in the current frontline.
黑色火焰龙的[黑色火焰]包含了红色火焰的状态,而乌列尔的[地狱之火]则充满了地狱之火的力量。所以,这两个人是当前前线最强大的主力军也是一回事。
“I never figured that we’d ever get to fight side-by-side.”
“我从没想过我们会并肩作战。”
“It’s the same story for me, too.”
“对我来说也是一样。”
Jeong Hui-Won blew away the specks of dust clinging on to her [Sword of Judgement].
郑慧媛吹走了附着在她身上的灰尘[审判之剑]。
That hard blade with its dull lustre - Han Su-Yeong had clashed against that blade on the stage of ‘Proof of Stars’ a long time ago.
那硬硬的刀刃,暗淡的光泽——韩素妍很久以前就在《星证》的舞台上与刀刃相撞了。
Afterwards, she never had the chance to talk to Jeong Hui-Won like this, one-on-one. Well, they didn’t really have anything to say to each other, and she wasn’t really talented when it came to that sort of conversation, so that couldn’t be helped.
后来,她再也没有机会像这样和郑惠媛一对一地说话。嗯,他们之间没有什么好说的,而且她也没有什么才能来进行这样的谈话,所以这也是无可奈何的。
Even if that was the case, she still had to ask Jeong Hui-Won for an explanation this time. “…..By the way, why are you still lugging around that?”
即使是这样,这次她还是要郑慧媛解释一下。“......顺便问一句,你为什么还要拖着那个东西到处走?”
“Ah, this?” Jeong Hui-Won looked at the huge ‘luggage’ on her back and formed a bitter smile.
“啊,这个?”郑慧媛看着她背上的巨大‘行李箱’,苦笑了一下。
Yi Hyeon-Seong could be seen wrapped tightly on a cross made out of steel frame.
可以看到李贤成被紧紧地包裹在一个由钢铁框架制成的十字架上。
“This is the only way that I can protect him.”
“这是我能保护他的唯一办法。”
“….But, he looks as if he’s already met his noble end, though? Where did you even find a cross, anyway?”
“......但是,他看起来好像已经死了,不过?你到底是在哪里找到一个十字架的?”
“My sponsor.”
“我的担保人。”
[Constellation, ‘Demon-like Judge of Fire’, is nodding her head in satisfaction.] “…..You know, this sight comes across as a bit blasphemous somehow. Is Uriel really an Angel?”
[星座,‘魔鬼般的火之审判者’,满意地点着头]“......你知道,这种情景似乎有点亵渎神明。乌列真的是天使吗?”
“Weeeell, even a Demon King is like that, so it’s fine.”
“威尔,即使是魔王也是这样的,所以没关系。”
The two women’s gazes shifted towards the back of the ranks almost simultaneously.
两个女人的目光几乎同时转向队伍的后面。
Kim Dok-Ja was among those Constellations sitting outside the ranks. With a melancholic look on his face, he was pressing the ground with his finger. It was as if he was scribbling something down there.
