Two days after the 'Great Apocalypse Scenario's conclusion.
大灾难剧情结束两天后。
During these two days, the 98th scenario meandering nowhere fast also ended, as well.
在这两天里,第98种漫无目的的游荡也结束了。
[98th scenario - 'Candidate Selection' has automatically ended.]
[第98种情况——“候选人选择”已自动结束。]
[No one has challenged your Nebula.]
[没人敢挑战你的星云]
[Number of victories: 1]
[胜利次数:1]
[Contents of your reward is currently being finalised.]
[你的奖励内容目前正在确定。]
[Clearing of the 'Great Apocalypse Scenario' has been linked to your reward, and the contents are still being discussed.]
[清除“大灾难场景”已经与你的奖励联系在一起,内容仍在讨论中。]
Perhaps that was inevitable. While Nebulas were busy fighting each other, we actually were victorious in the 'Great Apocalypse Scenario'. We fought off the ancient 'Outer Gods' and protected Earth. Not only that, with only the strength of our Nebula alone, too.
也许这是不可避免的。当尼布拉斯忙着互相争斗的时候,我们实际上在“大启示录情节”中取得了胜利。我们击退了远古的“外界诸神”,保护了地球。不仅如此,只有我们星云的力量也是如此。
[A large number of Constellations respect you and your Nebula.] [Nebula <Kim Dok-Ja Company>'s fame is spreading far and wide in <Star Stream>.] [Every Constellation in the Final Scenario is now aware of your Nebula.] [Every Constellation in the Final Scenario is curious of your 'Conclusion'.]
[大量的星座尊重你和你的星云][星云金道子公司的名声正在星流中广泛传播。][最后场景中的每个星座现在都知道你的星云][最后场景中的每个星座都对你的“结论”感到好奇]
And now, everyone in this <Star Stream> knew of us.
现在,星流里的每个人都知道我们了。
- Representative-nim! Representative Kim Dok-Ja! Please say something!
-nim代表!KimDok-Ja代表!请说点什么!
Voices from the megaphones came from outside the [Industrial Complex].
从扩音器里传来的声音来自工业园区外。
Whether it was the hologram panel or the regular TV - didn't matter where or what, our story dominated them all. Every broadcasting station, including terrestrial and cable, was showing the front yard of the [Industrial Complex] in real-time.
不管是全息图面板还是普通的电视——不管在哪里或是什么,我们的故事统治了他们所有人。每个广播电台,包括地面和有线电视台,都在实时播放工业园区的前院。
Also, the interview footages of the Complex's residents were being repeated ad nauseam, too.
此外,对综合体居民的采访片段也被反复播放,令人作呕。
- 'Judge of Apocalypse'-nim! Can you tell us the future plans of <Kim Dok-Ja Company>…..
-‘末日审判官’-尼姆!你能告诉我们金道子公司的未来计划吗。
- Call me by my name when in public, please. Han Su-Yeong likes that stuff. I don't.
-在公共场合叫我的名字。韩素妍喜欢那些东西。我不喜欢。
- Hey, Jeong Hui-Won. Wanna die?!
嘿,郑慧媛,想死吗?!
….I couldn't remember just how many times I had heard that "Wanna die" by now.
我不记得到现在为止我已经听过多少次“想死”了。
- The true influence behind the 'Kim Dok-Ja Company', 'Han Su-Yeong the Black Flame Demon Empress'. It is now revealed that, before the apocalypse, she was a famous author…
-「金道子公司」、「韩素妍黑焰魔女皇后」背后的真正影响。据透露,在世界末日之前,她是一位著名的作家..。
Reading the ticker proclaiming [Genius author's insight demolishes the Final Scenario!], I could seriously re-appreciate the fact that I had indeed reached this far.
阅读股票行情显示(天才作家的洞察力推翻了最后的剧本!),我可以认真地重新欣赏这个事实,我确实已经走到这一步。
-We heard that your representative-nim has become a 'Myth-grade Constellation' after defeating the 'Midday Sun'. Does that mean our South Korea now has a 'Myth-grade' Constellation that can step up to the limelight?
-我们听说你们的代表nim在击败了”正午太阳”之后成为了”神话级星座”。这是否意味着我们的韩国现在有了一个“神话级”的星座,可以走到聚光灯下?
- Incarnations are currently locked in a fierce debate after witnessing the footages of the battle's final moments. Just what are the true identities of the 'Outer Gods'?
-目前,在目睹了战斗最后时刻的片段之后,各方陷入了激烈的争论之中。外界诸神的真实身份是什么?
- Why did representative Kim Dok-Ja-nim suddenly become a blonde?
-KimDok-Ja-nim议员为什么突然变成了金发女郎?
The battles we fought were broadcast not only on <Star Stream>, but throughout Earth as well - from Yu Jung-Hyeok kicking 'Ra's' butt, all the way to us fighting against the lava wave created by the 999th turn's Outer Gods.
我们的战斗不仅在《星流》中播出,而且在整个地球上都有播出——从YuJung-Hyeok踢掉Ra的屁股,一直到我们对抗第999回合的《外界之神》中的熔岩波。
[Constellation. 'Demon-like Judge of Fire', is quite proud of herself.] [Constellation, 'Abyssal Black Flame Dragon', is turning its nose up.]
[星座:“火之法师”,相当自豪。][星座:“深渊黑火龙”,正在翘起它的鼻子。]
[Constellation, 'Most Ancient Liberator's', lips are twitching.]
[星座,‘最古老的解放者’,嘴唇在抽搐。]
And every one of those scenes was accompanied by an interview with someone.
每一个场景都伴随着对某人的采访。
- You see, me? I recognised that friend's greatness even back when we were working in the same company. Ng? Just which new employee tries to be the first to go home as soon as time's up…
你看,我?甚至在我们在同一家公司工作的时候,我就意识到了那个朋友的伟大。吴先生?哪个新员工会在时间一到就第一个回家呢。
Department head Han Myeong-Oh? I definitely told him not to do any interviews, though?
部门主管韩明焕?我明确告诉过他不要接受任何采访吗?
He was smiling brightly, his left hand holding onto his daughter's. It seemed that he had managed to safely rescue his child.
他笑得很灿烂,左手握着女儿的手。看来他成功地救出了他的孩子。
- He was just a regular friend. Mm, well, you know, those types of kids? There's always someone like that in a class, that type of a person.
他只是个普通朋友。嗯,你知道的,那种孩子?班上总会有这样的人,这样的人。
Now that some time had passed by, even a person claiming to be my school mate popped up. I began thinking that maybe some managed to survive until now.
过了一段时间,就连一个自称是我同学的人也突然出现了。我开始想,也许有些人一直活到现在。
….Those faces that I couldn't even place a name on.
那些我连名字都记不清的面孔。
- Kind, quiet, likes to read a book by himself…
善良,安静,喜欢一个人看书。
Although not technically wrong, that explanation wasn't right, either.
虽然从技术上讲并不是错误的,但这种解释也是不正确的。
Some words were quite convenient to use. And those words usually couldn't explain anything because of that convenience.
有些词语用起来很方便,但是由于这种方便,这些词语通常无法解释任何事情。
The school mate muttered on about the obvious stuff for a while, before excusing himself with a stutter as if he found the camera a bit too much. He probably ran out of things to say.
这位同学喃喃自语地说了一会儿这些显而易见的东西,然后口吃地为自己开脱,好像觉得相机有点太过了。他可能已经无话可说了。
- About Earth's saviour, the 'Demon King of Salvation'.
关于地球的救世主,“救世魔王”。
Another program started after that with a piece of rather sad-sounding music. It was a specially-compiled documentary.
在那之后,另一个节目开始播放一段相当悲伤的音乐,这是一部特别编制的纪录片。
[Constellation. 'Goryeo's First Sword', is nodding his head.]
[星座‘高丽的第一剑’,点点头]
[Constellation, 'Maritime War God', is proud of you.]
[星座,‘海战之神’,为你感到骄傲。]
While watching the footages, I began recalling the time before the apocalypse. The dreams I had, the things I thought were important, etc.
在观看影片的时候,我开始回忆起世界末日之前的时光。我的梦想,我认为重要的事情,等等。
The fact that all these things came across as distant memories felt very alien to me. Of course, not everything was totally alien, though.
事实上,所有这些都是遥远的记忆,这让我感到非常陌生。当然,并不是所有的东西都是外星的。
- He endured a painful youth stained by domestic violence, and…
他忍受了一个被家庭暴力玷污的痛苦青年。
Someone suddenly switched the TV off.
有人突然关掉了电视。
"Dok-Ja-ya."
“ Dok-Ja-ya。”
My mother was standing by the entrance of the reception room.
我母亲站在接待室的门口。
I smiled nonchalantly while staring at her. "You're here."
我一边看着她,一边冷冷地笑了笑,“你来了。”
She nodded as a bout of silence filled the room. I stared at the TV within this silence. The darkened screen reflected both my mother and myself.
她点点头,整个房间鸦雀无声。我在寂静中盯着电视机。暗色的屏幕反射出我和母亲的影子。
A faint aroma of perfume wafted past my nose, making me feel rather strange in the process. Once upon a time, she was the one person I just couldn't understand.
一股淡淡的香味飘过我的鼻子,让我在这个过程中感到很奇怪。从前,她是我唯一不能理解的人。
But now, I didn't even need to resort to [Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint] to figure out what she was thinking about.
但是现在,我甚至不需要求助于[无所不知的读者视角]来弄明白她在想什么。
"I'm fine, mother. Please don't worry."
“我很好,妈妈,请不要担心。”
A soft sigh could be heard next.
接下来可以听到一声轻轻的叹息。
"I'm sorry, son."
“对不起,儿子。”
"But, you haven't done anything."
“但是,你什么也没做。”
"This time, it…."
“这次,它......”
"There's been a lot of interview requests, hasn't it?"
“有很多采访请求,不是吗?”
"They have been declined. There's no need for you to personally step up. You saving this world or destroying it, it matters not to them."
“他们被拒绝了。你没有必要亲自站出来。你拯救这个世界还是毁灭它,对他们来说都不重要。”
The voices from the megaphones were still coming from afar.
扩音器里的声音仍然从远处传来。
I knew very well what my mother was worried about, and what she was apologising for.
我非常清楚母亲担心什么,也知道她为什么要道歉。
"I'm not the 'Kim Dok-Ja' from back then."
“我不是那时候的‘金道子’。”
I pulled the curtains back on the window, and the cameras pointing at the plaza all shifted towards in my direction.
我拉开窗户上的窗帘,指向广场的摄像机都朝我这个方向移动。
In the past, I was scared of the cameras; scared of someone looking at me, and terrified of strangers yapping about me in strange languages.
过去,我害怕摄像机,害怕有人看着我,害怕陌生人用奇怪的语言对我大喊大叫。
"I'll do an interview."
“我会接受采访的。”
"…..Are you sure about this, son? How about giving it another thought….?"
“......你确定吗,儿子?不如再考虑一下......”
"They also have the right to know, you see."
“你知道,他们也有权知道。”
I switched the TV on again. I saw the news headline pop up on the upper part of the screen.
我再次打开电视,看到屏幕上方弹出新闻标题。
- What is <Kim Dok-Ja Company>'s goal?
-金道子公司的目标是什么?
- [Industrial Complex] hasn't revealed the Final Scenario's contents yet… [A portion of Nebulas are focusing on your next course of action!] [<Star Stream> wishes to tell the story of your 'Conclusion'!] [Great Dokkaebis are summoning you to the 'Final Scenario' location.] [A portion of Nebulas wish to form an alliance with your….] "At 8 o'clock tonight. Please contact both the Dokkaebis as well as the Constellations."
-[工业联合体]还没有透露最终方案的内容......[一部分星云正在关注你的下一步行动!][星流想要讲述你的“结论”的故事!]【伟大的多卡比斯正在召唤你到“最后情境”的位置。】(一部分星云希望与你们结盟......)“今晚8点。请与多卡比斯和星座联系。”
*
Been a while, but I found and read the first version of the 'Ways of Survival'; the pure, unsullied version, before the author decided to alter it.
有一段时间了,但是在作者决定修改它之前,我发现并阅读了《生存之道》的第一个版本。
[Currently, both you and your Nebula have acquired the qualification of the 'Final Scenario'.] [You can enter the 'Final Scenario' location at any time.]
[目前,你和你的星云都获得了“最后情景”的资格。][您可以在任何时间输入“最终方案”的位置]
The Final Scenario from the 'Ways of Survival' was actually a great war against the 'Outer Gods'.
《生存之道》中的最后情节实际上是一场与“外界诸神”的伟大战争。
Yu Jung-Hyeok from the original cut the Outer God King's head off during that scenario and completed his own 'Conclusion' that way.
在这个场景中,于重赫从原始的外神王砍下了他的头,并以这种方式完成了他自己的“结论”。
In a certain way, it was rather similar to the 'Great Apocalypse Scenario' we had experienced already. Actually, if we were unsuccessful in our quest to stop the Great Apocalypse, then it'd probably go on to become the prelude to the Final Scenario, instead.
在某种程度上,这与我们已经经历过的“大启示录”情景非常相似。事实上,如果我们阻止大灾难的努力失败了,那么它很可能会成为最后剧情的前奏。
⸢The 'Outer Gods' that were supposed to become the Final Scenario's calamities have been sealed away.⸥
本应成为最后剧情的“外部诸神”的灾难已经被封存了
I looked at the three sealing spheres located in the middle of the [Factory]. That's where the 'Kings' that descended to this world was currently asleep. The 'Living Flame', the 'Master of the Sunken Island', and even the 'Monarch of the Great Abyss' - all three of them.
我看了看位于[工厂]中间的三个密封圈。这就是降临这个世界的国王们现在睡着的地方。“活火焰”,“沉没岛屿的主人”,甚至“大深渊的君主”——所有这三个。
The only one not sealed away was the 'King of the Silverlight Heart' who didn't appear as a calamity.
唯一一个没有被封存的是银光之心的国王,他没有出现在灾难中。
- We shall watch your Fable until its end.
我们会一直看你的《寓言》直到它结束。
The 999th turn's Uriel said that to me during the final moments before sealing herself and her comrades within the [Apocalypse Dragon Sealing Sphere]. She estimated that an incredible aftermath's storm would ravage them after they willingly went against the agreement with the Bureau and gave up on the positions of the calamities.
第999回合的乌列说,在封印她自己和她的同志在[启示龙封印球]之前的最后时刻。她估计,在他们心甘情愿地违反与调查局达成的协议,放弃了灾难的立场之后,一场难以置信的风暴将摧毁他们。
[You have concluded the 'Great Apocalypse Scenario' in an abnormal manner.] [A portion of Constellations are expressing their dissatisfaction at your manner of progressing the scenario!] [A portion of Great Dokkaebis hold inexplicable animosity towards you.] [A small number of Great Dokkaebis acknowledge your achievement of convincing the 'Outer Gods'.] [Currently, a number of the Wennys hold a favourable view of you.]
[你以一种不正常的方式得出了“大灾难”的结论。][一部分星座表达了他们对你推进方案的方式的不满!][一部分伟大的多卡比斯对你有着无法言喻的仇恨。][一小部分伟大的多卡比斯承认你在说服“外界诸神”方面的成就。][目前,一些温妮家的人对你有好感]
Countless messages continued to rise up in the air even now.
即使是现在,无数的信息仍在空中不断升起。
[Hidden scenario - 'One Single Fable's' completion is imminent.] [A satisfactory 'Great Fable' has been completed due to the latter half of the 'Conclusion(結)'.] [<Star Stream> is recommending possible names for your final Fable.]
[隐藏的场景-’一个单一寓言’的完成是迫在眉睫的。][由于《结论》的后半部分,一部令人满意的《伟大寓言》已经完成][星流正在为你的最终寓言推荐可能的名字。]
[Please select the Great Fable's name.]
[请选择伟大寓言的名字。]
[Depending on your selection, your 'Conclusion' will be decided.]
[根据您的选择,您的‘结论’将被决定。]
I still hadn't picked a name from among the <Star Stream>'s recommendations.
我仍然没有从星流的推荐中选择一个名字。
"Kim Dok-Ja."
“金道子。”
Han Su-Yeong entered while pushing open the creaking door.
韩素英推开吱吱作响的门,走了进来。
"How are our companions feeling?"
“我们的同伴感觉如何?”
"About the same. Yu Jung-Hyeok's a bit injured, but it's not so bad. The [Life and Death Pill]'s effects are seriously no joke, you know."
“差不多吧。余正赫受了点伤,不过没那么严重。你知道,(生死药)的作用可不是开玩笑的。”
She then proudly boasted that she got herself another pill - which wasn't like her - before placing that very pill on my palm.
然后,她骄傲地夸耀说,在把那颗药放在我的手掌上之前,她又得到了一颗药丸——这可不像她的作风。
"Eat it if you think you're about to croak, okay?"
“如果你觉得自己要死了,就吃了它,好吗?”
"If only you sounded nicer. I'd have been moved to tears."
“要是你听起来好一点,我会感动得流泪的。”
Han Su-Yeong stared at my face with unreadable light in her eyes. This soft darkness was scattering away like a screen of fog between us.
韩素英的眼睛里闪烁着难以辨认的光芒,盯着我的脸。这片柔和的黑暗像一层薄雾一样在我们之间散开了。
A faint trace of light leaked out from the sealing sphere trapping the 999th turn's Uriel. Han Su-Yeong's face glowed warmly under that light.
一丝微弱的光线从密封的球体中泄露出来,困住了第999回合的乌列尔。韩素英的脸在灯光下闪着温暖的光。
