所有星座的每一个修饰符都从我的头顶掠过,给我们带来欢呼。他们这么多人,却没有一个愿意帮助我们?
Meanwhile, Han Su-Yeong continued on. "Many Constellations watched out Fables. Some cheered us on, while some were jealous of us. There were variety of reactions, sure. And we earned lots of Coins, too. But, that's as far as it goes."
与此同时,韩素英继续。“许多星座看着寓言。有些人为我们喝彩,有些人嫉妒我们。当然,反应是多种多样的。我们也赚了很多硬币。但是,仅此而已。”
"…"
"..."
"You think the world was truly moved by our stories? Do you really think you have managed to change the <Star Stream>?"
“你认为世界真的被我们的故事感动了吗?你真的认为你已经成功地改变了星流吗?”
"I'm not that naïve, but still…."
“我不是那么天真,但还是......”
"Constellations only subscribe to the channels that meet their tastes. They are no longer entertained, so they simply moved onto other channels. That's all."
“星座只订阅符合他们口味的频道。他们不再娱乐,所以他们只是转移到其他频道。仅此而已。”
I couldn't be sure whether Han Su-Yeong was right or not.
我不知道韩素英是对是错。
[Next location for the Great Apocalypse is 'North-East Asia'.] [Time remaining until the start of the 'Great Apocalypse Scenario' is 14 days,12 hours, and 7 minutes.]
[《大启示录》的下一个拍摄地点是东北亚][距离“大启示录”开始还有14天12小时7分钟]
But, I was sure that the planet Earth would go down the drain if they continued to avoid us.
但是,我确信,如果他们继续躲着我们,地球将会变成一个下水道。
Jeong Hui-Won asked a question. "What should we do?"
郑慧媛问道:“我们该怎么办?”
"…..Well, it's not as if I didn't foresee something like this happening."
“好吧,我并不是没有预见到这种事情的发生.”
My words caused Han Su-Yeong to narrow her eyes. "You got something?"
我的话让韩素妍眯起了眼睛,“你有什么发现吗?”
"If they are not willing to meet us, then we should go and speak to them, instead."
“如果他们不愿意见我们,那么我们应该去和他们谈谈。”
"Where will you go first, then? As I thought, it's the easiest of the lot, the <Underworld>, right?"
“那么,你要先去哪里呢?正如我所想的,这是最容易的地狱,对吗?”
"I think you're probably the only person out there who calls the <Underworld> the easiest."
“我想你可能是唯一一个最容易打电话给黑社会的人。”
I ignored the smirking Han Su-Yeong and looked at Jeong Hui-Won.
我没有理会韩素妍的傻笑,而是看着郑惠媛。
Asking for <Underworld>'s aid was indeed a priority, but there was something else more urgent than that right now. We had about fourteen days left. With the minimum effort, we needed to get the maximum possible result.
寻求黑社会的帮助确实是当务之急,但现在还有比这更紧急的事情。我们还有大约14天的时间。用最小的努力,我们需要得到最大可能的结果。
"We should regain our lost comrade first."
“我们首先要找回失去的同志。”
What I was looking at, was the Steelsword hanging on Jeong Hui-Won's hips.
我看到的是挂在郑惠元屁股上的钢剑。
[Soul of the Character 'Yi Hyeon-Seong' is in slumber.]
[人物‘YiHyeon-Seong’的灵魂在沉睡。]
The after-effects of the Steel Transformation 5th stage was worse than I expected, it seemed.
钢铁转变第五阶段的后续影响比我预期的更糟糕,它似乎。
"We'll go meet the 'Master of Steel'."
“我们要去见‘钢铁大师’。”
"The Master of Steel? Will someone like that help us?"
“钢铁大师?那样的人会帮助我们吗?”
I nodded my head. "The Master of Steel is a powerful Constellation. Although he's not a Myth-grade, there's no doubt we need his powers far more urgently than any top tier Constellations out there."
我点了点头。“钢铁大师是一个强大的星座。尽管他不是神话级别的,但毫无疑问,我们比任何顶级星座都更迫切需要他的能力。”
"How come?"
“为什么?”
"I don't have the time to give you a detailed explanation. For now, let's get ready to move."
“我没有时间给你一个详细的解释。现在,让我们准备行动。”
We needed an emergency hotline, as well as the minimum level of defensive forces, so Jang Ha-Yeong, Gong Pil-Du, and Yi Seol-Hwa were left behind in the Industrial Complex. I felt bad about leaving them behind again, but after seeing their expressions, I got the feeling that I was actually doing them a huge disservice by thinking that way. When I thought about it, Yi Seol-Hwa said something similar to that, didn't she?
我们需要一条紧急热线,以及最低水平的防御力量,所以张夏勇,宫必都,易世华被留在了工业区。我为再次把他们抛在身后而感到难过,但是看到他们的表情后,我感觉我这样想实际上是在给他们带来巨大的伤害。当我想起来的时候,李雪花说了类似的话,不是吗?
"Come back soon. And leave this place to us."
“快点回来,把这个地方留给我们。”
Them being left behind in Seoul wasn't easier of the two jobs.
他们被留在首尔不是更容易的两个工作。
Just like how the 'story' continued on because there were things that hadn't been told yet.
就像故事是如何继续下去的,因为有些事情还没有被告知。
*
We got in the [X-grade Ferrarghini] immediately and entered the dimensional road network.
我们得到了[x级费拉基尼]立即进入立体道路网络。
Our coordinate was OZ-7611. Resplendent stars of the <Star Stream> brushed past us, and tension gradually dyed the expressions of my companions.
我们的坐标是OZ-7611。星流中灿烂的星光掠过我们身边,紧张的情绪逐渐染红了我同伴们的脸庞。
"You don't have to be that tense, everyone. Just think of it as going out for a fun outing….. Take it as an extension of that workers' revolution or whatever you called it."
“你们不必那么紧张,各位。就当是出去玩玩吧。把它看作是工人革命或者随便你怎么称呼它的延伸。”
"….But, isn't it working hours right now?"
“可是,现在不是工作时间吗?”
"I'm saying this because where we're headed off to isn't that scary."
“我这么说是因为我们要去的地方没那么可怕。”
"Where exactly are we going?"
“我们到底要去哪里?”
"Mm, well, as I've told you, we're going to the stronghold of the 'Master of Steel'….."
“嗯,正如我告诉你的,我们要去‘钢铁大师’的大本营......”
"Just what the heck is that guy's real identity, anyway " Han Su-Yeong became too frustrated and shot me that question. "It's more or less possible to guess the identities of other Constellations through their Modifiers, right? The 'Prisoner of the Golden Headband' is Sun Wukong, while the 'God of Wine and Ecstasy' is Dionysus. But this guy, I just can't figure it out. And there was no info on him in the parts that I read, either."
“不管怎么说,那家伙的真实身份到底是什么?”韩素英变得很沮丧,向我提出了这个问题。“通过其他星座的修饰语猜测它们的身份或多或少是可能的,对吧?“金发囚徒”是孙悟空,“酒神”是狄俄尼索斯。但是这个人,我就是想不通。而且我读到的部分也没有关于他的信息。”
"Well, if you're that curious, why don't you take a guess through the [Predictive Plagiarism]?"
“好吧,如果你那么好奇,为什么不通过(预测性剽窃)来猜一猜呢?”
"You want me to use my ability on something this small "
“你想让我把我的能力用在这么小的事情上?”
I shrugged my shoulders.
我耸了耸肩。
I took a look at the faces of my companions, and not just Han Su-Yeong but everyone seemed to be really curious about who this 'Master of Steel' could be.
我看了看同伴们的脸,不只是韩素英,大家好像都很好奇这位“钢铁大师”到底是谁。
Jeong Hui-Won asked me. "Is he someone from a myth that we know?"
郑慧媛问我:“他是我们认识的神话人物吗?”
"He's not from a myth, but well, he's a really famous Constellation regardless. Actually, there's even a famous story that used his Fable as its foundation. But, uh…. I don't think the kids know about it all that well, though."
“他不是来自神话,但不管怎样,他是一个非常有名的星座。事实上,甚至有一个著名的故事,以他的寓言为基础。但是..。不过,我认为孩子们对此并不是很了解。”
My words caused both Shin Yu-Seung and Yi Gil-Yeong to become dejected right away. Just before I could continue on, noises of explosions came from behind us.
我的话立刻让申玉升和易吉英都变得沮丧起来。我还没来得及继续,身后就传来了爆炸的声音。
"….Those sons of bitches!!"
“...那些狗娘养的!”
Han Su-Yeong steering the vehicle cried out in sheer astonishment.
韩素英驾驶着这辆车,惊讶地叫了起来。
Shadows of battleships were cast on the rearview mirror. And it wasn't just one or two, either. At a bare minimum, there were dozens of spaceships giving us chase while scattering Ether particles.
战舰的影子投射在后视镜上。而且不只是一两个。至少有几十艘宇宙飞船在追逐以太粒子。
Shin Yu-Seung asked me. "Aren't they from a Nebula? Why are they attacking us?"
申玉成问我:“他们不是来自星云吗?他们为什么要攻击我们?”
I couldn't be sure, but those things looked like Fable weapons belonging to great Nebulas such as <Vedas> or <Papyrus>.
我不能确定,但那些东西看起来像是属于伟大星云的寓言式武器,比如吠陀经或纸莎草纸。
Yi Ji-Hye frowned deeply and spoke up. "Should I just summon my Geobukseon?"
易智慧皱起眉头,大声说道:“我是不是应该召唤我的吉布森?”
"No, don't. We don't have the time to fight them. Step on it, Han Su-Yeong!"
“不,不要,我们没有时间跟他们打,快点,韩素妍!”
We didn't have too much to go until our destination, anyway.
不管怎样,我们在到达目的地之前没有太多的路要走。
In the blink of an eye, the [X-grade Ferrarghini] shot forward and crossed the dimensional road in a shiver-inducing speed. And soon afterwards, a new message popped up in the air.
在一眨眼的功夫,[x级的费拉基尼]向前飞奔,以一种令人颤栗的速度穿过维度的道路。不久之后,一条新的信息在空中出现。
[You've arrived in the coordinate 'OZ-1900'!]
[你已经到达坐标‘OZ-1900’!]
Along with the loud screech, the vehicle came to stop in mid-air. The place we arrived in was actually a train station of sorts. And that station was a small wooden house.
伴随着刺耳的尖叫声,汽车在半空中停了下来。我们到达的地方实际上是个火车站。那个车站是一个小木屋。
I shouted out. "Everyone, get out quickly! And enter that house!"
我大声喊道,“所有人,快出来!进入那所房子!”
Almost at the same time as everyone filed into this house, the [X-grade Ferrarghini] exploded into bits.
几乎在每个人鱼贯进入这个房子的同时,(x级的费拉基尼)爆炸成碎片。
….Goddammit, I hadn't even driven it that many times, too.
...该死的,我也没开过那么多次。
I confirmed that everyone was inside and closed the front door shut. Right after that, a powerful tornado was stirred up around the wooden house. The structure rose up in the air, before moving at a break-neck pace.
我确认大家都在里面,然后关上了前门。紧接着,一股强大的龙卷风在木屋周围掀起。这座建筑物升到空中,然后以惊人的速度移动。
I shouted again. "Shut the windows and lock them!"
我又喊了一声,“把窗户关上,锁上!”
"You think closing the windows will actually help?!"
“你认为关上窗户真的会有帮助吗?”
Han Su-Yeong threw out a tackle, but she still diligently closed the windows. I spotted the mystery Nebula reloading their weapons in the far-off distance. It was indeed an impressive spectacle to witness dozens upon dozens of battleships charging their photon cannons at once. An attack of that magnitude could probably blow up the Korean Peninsula in one go.
韩素英扔出一个铲子,但她还是努力地关上了窗户。我在遥远的地方发现了神秘的星云在重新装填他们的武器。这确实是一个令人印象深刻的奇观,目睹了数十艘战列舰同时冲击他们的光子炮。如此大规模的袭击可能会一下子炸毁朝鲜半岛。
Yi Ji-Hye urgently shouted out. "Ahjussi, even if it's now….!"
易智慧急切地喊道:“大叔,就算是现在......!”
"Don't worry. We're safe here."
“别担心,我们在这里很安全。”
Suddenly, the entire house went through a geometric transformation. Its interior expanded rapidly, and accompanied by loud metallic noises, steel pipes suddenly began growing throughout the house.
突然间,整个房子经历了一场几何变换。它的内部迅速扩大,伴随着巨大的金属噪音,钢管突然开始在整个房子中生长。
"What the heck? Wasn't this a wooden house "
“这是什么鬼东西?这不是一座木屋吗?”
[Docking procedure will now commence!]
[对接程序现在开始!]
The house floating in the air was secured to something as the loud docking noises resounded out. And at the same time, the burst of gunfire rained down on us. The firepower on display here was enough to blow away a continent to oblivion.
漂浮在空中的房子被固定在一个什么东西上,因为对接的巨大噪音回响在空中。与此同时,枪声如雨点般向我们袭来。这里展示的火力足以将整个欧洲大陆夷为平地。
But then, an unimaginably humongous steel barrier suddenly grew around the entirety of the planet as noisy exhaust sounds resounded out. Streams of gunfire flying in crashed into that barrier and were extinguished without a trace.
但随后,随着嘈杂的排气声响起,一道无法想象的巨大钢铁屏障突然在整个地球周围生长起来。飞进来的炮火轰击着那个障碍物,消失得无影无踪。
My companions carried this rather scared-silly look on their faces from the sheer scale of the barrier as they all turned to look at me.
当我的同伴们都转过身来看我的时候,他们的脸上都带着一种非常害怕和愚蠢的表情。
The exterior of the planet we arrived at could be seen through the windows. It was a city glimmering in a silvery hue. The giant planet that reminded one of a contracting heart.
透过窗户可以看到我们到达的行星的外部。这是一个在银色中闪烁的城市。这颗巨大的行星让人想起了一颗收缩的心脏。
[Welcome to the Heart of Steel, <Oz>!]
[欢迎来到钢铁之心,奥兹!]
The Heart of Steel, <Oz>.
钢铁之心》,奥兹。
This was the planet where the strongest metal found in the <Star Stream> 'grew'.
这是在恒星流中发现的最坚固的金属生长的行星。
