第422章:第79集-秘密策划者(7)“刚才到底发生了什么?”
Bihyung hung his head low after hearing Han Su-Yeong’s words.
听了韩素英的话，必亨低下了头。
“You were busy talking a big game, but then, we got refused entry at the door…. Oii, Dokkaebi, will you say something already?”
“你当时正忙着谈论一场大型比赛，但后来，我们在门口被拒绝入内.....。奥伊，多卡比，你能说点什么吗?”
[Well, that is….. Fuu….]
[嗯，那是......福......]
In the end, the <Kim Dok-Ja Company> couldn’t go to the ‘Final Scenario’ and had to return to Earth. The reason? Their ‘qualification is insufficient’.
最后，金道子公司无法进入“最后情节”，不得不返回地球。原因是什么？他们的“资质不够”。
[It seems that the Great Dokkaebis were behind this.] “You think everything’ll be fine after saying that? What will you do about our wasted time, dude?”
[似乎是大多卡比斯在背后操纵着这一切。]“你认为说了这些之后一切都会好起来吗？你打算怎么处理我们浪费的时间，伙计?”
[….I’ll compensate you with suitable rewards so please, stop grilling me.]
我会给你适当的奖励，所以请不要再拷问我了
While the grumbling Bihyung was rummaging through his pockets, Han Su-Yeong sighed deeply and took a look at her companions.
满腹牢骚的比亨翻着口袋，韩素妍深深地叹了口气，看了看自己的同伴。
They had somehow returned to Earth after going through all sorts of crazy ups and downs. Predictably, none of them were themselves at the moment.
在经历了各种各样疯狂的起伏之后，他们不知怎么回到了地球。可以预见的是，他们当中没有一个人是他们自己。
“He might have died for real this time…. I’m sorry, hyung…. I… I wasn’t qualified…. Because, I didn’t do the contract….”
“这次他可能真的死了.....。对不起，哥哥。我。.我不够资格..。因为合同不是我签的......”
Yi Gil-Yeong had been muttering some indescribable things to himself while crouching over there, while Shin Yu-Seung had her eyes closed and both of her index fingers were pressed to her temples as if she was meditating or some such. Meanwhile, Yi Ji-Hye and Jeong Hui-Won had taken Yi Hyeon-Seong to Aileen at the [Industrial Complex] and had vacated the premises for the time being.
一边蹲在那里，一边对自己嘀咕着一些难以形容的事情，申玉升闭着眼睛，两个食指压在太阳穴上，好像在冥想什么的。与此同时，YiJi-Hye和JeongHui-Won将YiHyeon-Seong带到[工业中心]的Aileen，并已暂时离开房舍。
“….This place hasn’t changed at all. That ahjumma didn’t even bother to clean the house, did she?”
“......这个地方一点也没变。那个大妈甚至懒得打扫房子，是吗?”
Han Su-Yeong muttered to herself as she patted away the dust on the aged couch.
韩素英一边拍拍老沙发上的灰尘，一边喃喃自语。
Once upon a time, she, Yu Sang-Ah, and Yi Su-Gyeong stayed together in this very house. A place where they lived together for three years during Kim Dok-Ja’s absence….
很久很久以前，她、余桑雅和易素京就住在这个房子里。在金道子不在的时候，他们在一起生活了三年。
Her brief reminiscence was cut short by the doorbell.
她那短暂的回忆被门铃声打断了。
She utilised the [Black Flame] to remotely open the door and smirked to herself. “….I guess the ⸢Devil showing up when you talk about her⸥ could be a Fable as well.”
她利用[黑火焰]远程打开门，对自己傻笑起来。“......我想当你谈论她的时候，魔鬼的出现也可能是一个寓言。”
“It’s been a while, Su-Yeong-ah,” said Yi Su-Gyeong as she scanned the messy state of the house. She eventually shook her head. “You’re still the same as before. You should at least ventilate the place.”
“好久不见了，素妍雅，”易素京扫视着凌乱的房子说。她终于摇了摇头。“你还是和以前一样。你至少应该让这个地方通通风。”
“I’ll have you know, I’ve returned only just now. And it’s already been so many yea…..”
“我告诉你，我刚回来，已经好多年了......”
Han Su-Yeong flinched when she got that far. She might have spent dozens of years in the ‘Isle of Reincarnators’, but that was time spent within the island itself. She couldn’t really tell exactly how long it had been on the outside.
韩素妍退缩了一下，走了那么远。她可能在“转世岛”里呆了几十年，但那是在岛上度过的时光。她真的不知道它在外面呆了多久。
Yi Su-Gyeong opened all the windows in the house with a simple flick of her hand and sent away all the stuffy dust outside. Her eyes remained fixed on the group sagging on the floor in the meantime.
易素京只用一个简单的手指，就打开了房子里所有的窗户，把外面所有闷热的灰尘都赶走了。与此同时，她的眼睛仍然盯着那群垂在地板上的人。
Han Su-Yeong sneakily blocked the older woman’s view towards them and coughed to clear her throat, before asking a question. “By any chance, did Jeong Hui-Won tell you already?”
韩素英偷偷地挡住了老妇人的视线，在问问题之前咳嗽了一下清清嗓子。“郑慧媛有没有告诉你?”
“Tell me what?”
“告诉我什么?”
Han Su-Yeong lightly bit her lip. She wasn’t sure how to explain this situation.
韩素英轻轻地咬了一下嘴唇，不知道该怎么解释这种情况。
“Well, you can see that Kim Dok-Ja isn’t here.”
“嗯，你可以看到金道子不在这里。”
“Hmm, that’s true. I learned of it just now, too.”
“嗯，这倒是真的。我也是刚刚才知道的。”
She thought that maybe, she shouldn’t have brought it up, but it was spilt milk already. Han Su-Yeong squeezed her eyes shut and spoke. “The reason why he’s not here, it’s…. Me, Yu Jung-Hyeok and Jeong Hui-Won, we all wanted to save your son and tried to go with the soul’s one big hit, but….”
她想也许，她不应该提起这件事，但是已经无法挽回了。韩素英紧闭双眼，说道。“他不在这里的原因是.....。我，余正赫和郑慧媛，我们都想救你的儿子，并且试图跟随灵魂的一次大撞击，但是......”
“Please get to the main point.”
“请说重点。”
“Ng. Actually, ahjumma, your son’s gone to some place with someone. But that place is….”
“吴。事实上，大妈，你儿子和别人去了某个地方。但是那个地方......”
“Are you perchance speaking of that?”
“你是在说这个吗?”
Han Su-Yeong followed Yi Su-Gyeong’s pointing finger and turned her head. The TV mounted on the wall was playing a news footage.
韩素英跟着李素京的指头转过头去。安装在墙上的电视正在播放新闻片段。
The scene on the screen showed a man wearing a white coat floating in the jet-black sky, with Kim Dok-Ja dangling off that man’s arm.
屏幕上的画面显示，一名身穿白色外套的男子漂浮在乌黑的天空中，金德子悬挂在那名男子的胳膊上。
– Breaking news! <Kim Dok-Ja Company>’s president kidnapped!
重大新闻!金道子公司总裁被绑架！
Han Su-Yeong’s jaw dropped to the floor as she muttered softly. “….What the heck is that?”
韩素英低声咕哝道:“这是什么鬼东西?”她的下巴都掉到地上了
For some unfathomable reason, the Earth’s media had found out about that event. Yi Su-Gyeong and her rather relaxed expression stared at the screen for a little while, then she nodded her head. “That boy. He’s still so popular.”
出于某种深不可测的原因，地球的媒体发现了这一事件。易素京和她相当放松的表情盯着屏幕看了一会儿，然后点了点头。“那个男孩。他仍然很受欢迎。”
“Ahjumma?! Don’t you get that it’s a pretty serious problem ”
“大妈?!你还不明白这是个很严重的问题吗?”
“But, he looks like Yu Jung-Hyeok-gun. So, what can be a serious problem?” (TL note at the end) “Because, that’s not the ‘Yu Jung-Hyeok’. That’s the problem.”
“但是，他看起来像俞正玄。那么，什么会是严重的问题呢?”“因为，那不是‘YuJung-Hyeok’。这就是问题所在。”
Han Su-Yeong spat out a groan. But then, the TV’s screen suddenly rewound itself back and the exact same footage played out again.
韩素英发出一声呻吟。但是，电视的屏幕突然倒回去，同样的画面再次上演。
– Breaking news! <Kim Dok-Ja Company>’s president kidnapped!
重大新闻!金道子公司总裁被绑架！
She looked around wondering what was going on here, only to discover the stupefied Yu Jung-Hyeok continually poking the TV remote. He rewound the footage several times and repeated it over and over again.
她环顾四周，想知道这里究竟发生了什么事，结果发现呆若木鸡的余正赫不断地戳着电视遥控器。他把录像倒带了好几遍，一遍又一遍地重复。
Han Su-Yeong asked him. “…..Hey, are you alright?”
韩素英问他:“喂，你没事吧?”
“…..”
“ ... ”
“You won’t regress even if your rewind that, you know? Did you even forget how to go back now?”
“你知道吗，就算倒带，你也不会倒回去的，你现在是不是忘了怎么倒回去了?”
He didn’t even pretend to hear her. His eyes burned scarily as if he wanted to engrave the appearance of the ‘Secretive Plotter’ in them. The Status of the Regressor who refused to accept his defeat oozed out from him and made the air in the living room rather stuffy and hot.
他甚至没有假装听到她的声音。他的眼睛闪着可怕的光芒，仿佛要在上面刻上“秘密策划者”的形象。拒绝接受失败的回归者的地位从他身上流露出来，使得起居室的空气变得闷热。
Han Su-Yeong spat out an even greater groan. “Dammit. Just who the heck distributed that footage…..”
韩素妍发出一声更大的呻吟。“该死的，到底是谁散布了那段视频......”
[Hum, hum.]
[哼，哼]
She turned her head yet again to find Bihyung this time, coughing to clear his throat.
这一次，她又转过头去，发现了比亨，咳嗽着清了清他的喉咙。
“….You haven’t left yet?”
“......你还没走?”
[Here’s your reward.]
这是你的奖励
Now that she thought about it, she had forgotten all about the reward payout. She extended her hand out, and the Dokkaebi’s small hand placed 500 Coins on her palm.
现在想想，她已经忘记了所有关于奖金的事情。她伸出手，多卡比的小手在她的手掌上放了500枚硬币。
“Are you messing with me ”
“你在耍我吗?”
[Well, the thing is, the financial state of the Bureau’s Seoul branch is a bit strained lately, you see…. And what with all these many things that require our attention, it’s like…..]
[嗯，事情是这样的，局里首尔分部的财政状况最近有点紧张，你看.....。有这么多事情需要我们去关注，就像......]
Bihyung whistled while glancing at the other side of the sky.
比亨一边吹着口哨，一边看着天空的另一边。
The Seoul’s sky that should’ve been clear was now dyed in the ominous colours of crimson and yellow. There were Probability’s sparks lashing down like lightning bolts, as well as the pitch-black [Great Hole] swirling around viciously.
原本清澈的首尔天空现在染上了不祥的深红色和黄色。可能性的火花像闪电一样闪下来，也有漆黑的(大洞)邪恶地盘旋着。
Han Su-Yeong frowned deeply and asked. “Did something happen to Seoul?”
韩素妍皱着眉头问道:“汉城出什么事了吗?”
“The skies have been like that for a while now.”
“现在天空已经像那样了。”
This city was no longer the location for the main scenario. But, if the apocalyptic phenomena were still persisting like that, it…..
这个城市不再是主要场景的地点。但是，如果世界末日现象仍然如此持续的话，那么.....。
[It’s because of the Apocalypse Dragon.]
[这是因为启示龙。]
Bihyung looked at the sky with a bitter expression, pulled out a lengthy smoking pipe from his inner pocket and mouthed it.
毕亨苦涩地望着天空，从口袋里掏出一根长长的烟斗，说了出来。
Perhaps she found that sight unacceptable, Han Su-Yeong snatched the pipe away and yelled at the Dokkaebi. “What are you talking about?! Why does the Apocalypse Dragon’s effect reach this far?”
也许她觉得这种情景不可接受，韩素妍把烟斗抢走，冲着Dokkaebi大喊大叫。“你在说什么?！为什么启示龙的影响会达到这么远?”
[You don’t know? I thought Kim Dok-Ja would have told you already.] “That idiot never tells us the most important information.”
你不知道？我以为金道子已经告诉你了“那个白痴从来不告诉我们最重要的信息。”
Bihyung pulled out a second smoking pipe looking rather unperturbed and spoke while lighting it up. [The revival of the Apocalypse Dragon is the first button of the great annihilation for all of us. You can think of it as the world-line now rushing towards its end with that thing wide awake…. This was why I told you that we need to hurry to the ‘Final Scenario’.] “….What will happen if we don’t get to the Final Scenario?”
比亨拿出第二支烟斗，看起来很镇定，一边点着烟斗一边说话。启示龙的复活是我们所有人大灭绝的第一个按钮。你可以把它想象成一条世界线正在奔向它的尽头，而那东西却完全清醒着..。这就是为什么我告诉你们，我们需要赶快进入“最后一幕”。]“......如果我们不能进入最后一幕，会发生什么?”
[As the word implies, it’s the apocalypse. You, me, this world.]
[正如这个词所暗示的，这是天启。你，我，这个世界。]
That composed declaration prompted the dumbfounded Han Su-Yeong to sharply shoot back. “What the heck, what is even…. What’s the point of this ‘Final Scenario’ when the whole world is about to be destroyed? Why did you people even create such a scenario in the first place?!”
这份沉着的声明促使目瞪口呆的韩素英猛烈还击。“管它呢，到底是.....。当整个世界即将被毁灭的时候，这种“最终情景”的意义何在？你们当初为什么要创造这样一个场景呢?”
[The great annihilation is not a scenario planned out by the Dokkaebis. It’s simply meant to be. And because the annihilation is real, the ‘Final Scenario’ has gained its purpose at last.]
大灭绝不是多卡比斯计划好的剧本。这是命中注定的。因为毁灭是真实的，“最后一幕”终于达到了它的目的
Bihyung looked up at the distant skies with an expression of remorse. He saw the movements of a group of stars, hurriedly trying to get to some place. Stars of the heavens were getting further away like shooting stars.
比亨抬头望着遥远的天空，露出懊悔的表情。他看见一群星星在移动，急急忙忙地想去某个地方。天上的星星像流星一样越来越远。

[Oh-oooooooh!]
[哦-哦!]
[Ah-aaaaaah!]
[啊-啊!]
The ‘Outer Gods’ unleashed their jet-black Statuses, dyeing the entirety of the N’Gai’s Forest in pure darkness.
“外界之神”释放了他们乌黑的身份，在纯粹的黑暗中染红了整个北盖森林。
The kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeoks managed to extract me from the vines and quickly stood all around me. The kkoma number [999] spoke up first. “Protect Kim Dok-Ja.”
于正行夫妇设法把我从藤蔓中解救出来，迅速地站在我周围。库马数字[999]首先发言。“保护金道子。”
“I told all of you this before, didn’t I? I knew he would cause a problem.”
“我以前告诉过你们所有人，不是吗?我知道他会制造麻烦。”
“Indeed, we should’ve killed him the first time we saw him.”
“事实上，我们第一次见到他的时候就应该杀了他。”
Even though they spat out some seriously scary words, all of the mini Yu Jung-Hyeoks continued to hold their [Heaven Shaking Swords] firmly and didn’t lower their guards. They sliced and cut the approaching tentacles and advanced forward little by little.
尽管他们吐出了一些非常可怕的字眼，但是所有的迷你余正赫仍然紧紧地握着他们的“天堂之剑”，没有放松警惕。他们切断了逼近的触须，一点一点地向前推进。
Maybe because it was directly after witnessing something truly shocking, my entire body seemed to be wrapped in this cold air. The kkoma number [999] took off his black coat and placed it over my shoulders.
也许是因为在目睹了真正令人震惊的事情之后，我的整个身体似乎都被这股冷空气包裹着。Kkoma号码[999]脱下他的黑色外套，放在我的肩膀上。
“I only remember telling you to read a book, so why did you have to provoke them?”
“我只记得告诉你要读一本书，那你为什么要激怒他们呢?”
I wasn’t sure what I could say back to him here. [999]’s eyes trembled.
我不知道在这里我还能对他说些什么。
“….You fool.”
“...你这个傻瓜。”
[Oh-ooooooh!]
[哦-哦!]
The howling Outer Gods’ true voice reverberated heavily in the sky. Insects within the forest vomited out their bodily fluids and died, while some of the Gods even began fighting among themselves, too.
咆哮的外界诸神的真实声音在天空中回荡。森林里的昆虫吐出它们的体液并死去，而一些神灵甚至开始自相残杀。
[999] spoke in a grave tone of voice. “These beings have not been understood for a very long time. And you just had to get involved.”
说话的声调很严肃。“这些生物已经很长时间没有被理解了。你必须参与进来。”
‘Outer Gods’ were flooding into where we were.
“外界诸神”正涌入我们所在的地方。
[GivetomeGivetomeGivetomeGivetome]
[给我/给我/给我/给我]
[KimdokjaKimdokjaKimdokjaKimdokja]
[ kimdokjakimdokjakimdokjakimdokjakimdokja ]
What was even more concerning, though, was the fact that not all Outer Gods carried the same sentiments as their peers. A few of the higher-ranked ones, after sensing my presence, began to exude unfiltered animosity in my way.
然而，更令人担忧的是，并非所有的外界诸神都像他们的同伴一样有着同样的情感。一些排名较高的人，在感觉到我的存在后，开始在我面前流露出未经过滤的敌意。
[Stin ki ng Cons tel ation has lo oked down on us.] [Ki ll him get r id of h im.] [No fo rgiving e ven if y ou are Plo tter’s gue st.]
[现在康斯坦公司看不起我们。][杀了他][即使你是普洛特的舌头，也不要放弃]
“Step aside, members of the Shantak!”
“闪开，尚塔克的成员们!”
“We will cut you down if you come closer.”
“如果你再靠近，我们就杀了你。”
The kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeoks all unleashed their Statuses and resisted, but the ‘Outer Gods’ didn’t back down at all. They approached closer one step at a time, and while emitting dizzying Statuses themselves, cried out in a loud roar.
库马于正赫都释放了他们的状态和抵制，但“外在的神”并没有退缩。他们一步一步地靠近，一边发出令人眩晕的声音，一边大声吼叫。
[Oh, Pl otter! We can no lo nger wa it!] [F or ho w long do we n eed to wa it? The wo rld-l ine’s end is ap pro aching!]
哦，请原谅！我们不能忘记它我们需要多长时间？2.这两个世界的末日是很痛苦的
I knew very well what they were talking about.
我很清楚他们在谈论什么。
The world-line’s end.
世界线的终点。
Even these guys, as expected, were fully conscious of the ‘Final Scenario’.
即使是这些家伙，正如所料，完全意识到’最后的情况’。
[Th is wo rld mu st unde rstand us]
[这是我们最需要的]
“Step aside!!”
“让开!!”
The tentacles closing in grew even more ferocious. Eventually, their Statuses became simply too much for the kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeoks to deal with, but then….
接近的触角变得更加凶猛。最终，他们的状态变得对于余正行来说简直难以应付，但是后来..。
The forest parted ways, and ‘he’ made his entrance.
森林分道扬镳，“他”走了进来。
He walked forward while crossing the tentacles that none of us could block. Each of his steps contained the solitude of indescribable eternity as well as the entirety of the 1863rd lives he had experienced.
