Chapter 30: Cent-Arms Successfully Hijacked – Part 1
「罢了，我果然不是拉下脸求人的人。」
“Forget it, I’m really not the type to grovel.”
年轻人的神情恢复冷酷帅气，他轻巧的敲了敲大木箱道：「老宾，这里有没有其它怪物巢穴？」
The young man’s expression reverted to its cold, handsome look as he lightly tapped the large wooden crate. “Old Bin, is there any other monster nest around here?”
果然多了解点资讯能避免很多损失。 如果贸然使用完整邮徽，却没有时序去扩展梦境时间，损失就大了。
So knowing more does help avoid heavy losses. If I rashly used the Mail Emblem without Chronos to expand the dream time, the waste would be immense.
空有宝物而不能使用。
Being rich in treasures yet unable to use them.
杨子藏深刻体会到了捉襟见肘的感觉。
Yang Zicang keenly felt the squeeze of poverty.
要是有时序，自己马上就可以去到未知的梦境世界获得新能力了。
If only he had Chronos, he could immediately venture into an unknown dream world and acquire a new ability.
「噗~」
“Pfft~”
被酒呛到的洛宾白了他眼：「呵，换做半天前，我会告诉你没有适合你的。 不过现在，我Moexl刚好发现个 c 级交错地。」
Coughing on his drink from the choke, Robin Lo shot him a look. “Hah, if it were half a day ago, I’d have said there’s nothing fitting for you. But now, conveniently, I, my Moxel, just discovered a C-grade intersection zone.”
c 级交错地，也叫做新月级。
A C-grade intersection zone is also called a New Moon grade.
这个 c 级交错地的裂缝依旧比较隐秘，它在一处居民楼上的房间衣柜里。
The fissure in this C-grade intersection zone is still hidden—specifically within the wardrobe of a room in an unassuming residential building.
四边形Moexl，还是情报收集型的四边形Moexl，能力果然是出众。
Quad Moxel—especially the intelligence-gathering type—truly excels in aptitude.
洛宾在没有频晶的情况下，想要找到隐秘的 A 级交错地可能依旧有点麻烦，但对于 c 级交错地来说，轻易就能发现附近的。
Without a Freq Crystal, Robin Lo still found it tricky sniffing out a hidden A-grade zone. But when it came to a C-grade? She spotted one in the vicinity with ease.
这可把只有个钝角的梁喜羡慕得不行。
This left Liang Xi—who only had a dull angle—green with envy.
「我跟著进去真的没关系吗？」 少年说到。
“Is it really okay for me to go in there with you?” the young man said.
这个等级对应的频晶孕育者，便属于他这种仅两条线的人。
The frequency-crystal nurturer corresponding to this level belonged to someone like him with only two lines.
洛宾道：
Robin Lo said:
「免费情报。 如果是两名以上三角形人员，可以不借用频晶就能稳定 c 级空间的部分区域显现。」
“Free intel. If there are more than two triangular personnel, a stable manifestation of part of a C-class space can be achieved without borrowing a frequency crystal.”
三人站在这个衣柜前，看著里面如大地震后出现的裂缝，它内部正透露出混沌的光芒。
The three of them stood in front of this wardrobe, staring at the crack inside that looked like a fissure after a massive earthquake, from which a chaotic glow emanated.
「所以当然没有问题。 这种地方我去过不下一百处。」洛宾无所谓的道。
“So of course there’s no problem. I’ve been to places like this over a hundred times.” Robin Lo said nonchalantly.
梁喜忐忑的跟著两人进入。
Liang Xi nervously followed the other two in.
这里面到处都是闪动的各种能量场与烟雾。
Inside, various flashing energy fields and mists filled everywhere.
重叠的各种混乱影像弥漫，只有脚下数米范围显现比较稳定的画面。
Layers of chaotic, overlapping images permeated the space, with only the few meters beneath their feet presenting a stable picture.
前方的草地在水波般的能量滑过后，又变成了砂砾浅滩。
The grass ahead turned into a gravel shoal after a wave-like energy rippled over it.
「吼~」
“Roar~”
「呜嗷~」
“Wooo-ao~”
空间隐隐震动，不同的场景内出现各不相同的野兽们的身影，它们朝这边看来。
The space rumbled faintly, and silhouettes of different beasts emerged in various scenes, all turning to look this way.
「这就是各种地形重叠的‘交错地‘了。」
“This is the ‘Overlapping Zone,‘ where all kinds of terrains are layered together.”
洛宾笑呵呵指著变异的野兽。
Robin Lo chuckled, pointing at the mutated beasts.
「放心，它们出不来。」
“Relax, they can’t get out.”
梁喜和杨子藏都是第一次进入这儿，霎时觉得特别新鲜。
Both Liang Xi and Yang Zicang were entering this place for the first time, feeling an instant wave of novelty.
那些怪物们只要被其它区域挡住，就无法跨越。
Those monsters simply cannot cross if blocked by other areas.
但同时，要不了多久，其中一些影像就会在能量波动扩散后，变成了另外的环境模样。
But at the same time, before long, some of those images will transform into other environmental forms as the energy fluctuations spread.
「我们需要选择走同样的场景，清理里面的生物，去把它们稳定下来。」
“We need to choose the same scene, clear out the creatures inside, and stabilize them.”
洛宾介绍道：「这里森林景象比较多，为节约刷新的等待时间，我们就选择森林好了。」
Robin Lo explained: “There are more forest scenes here. To save time waiting for them to refresh, let’s just choose the forest.”
三人走向左侧如同全息幕布的三维世界。 那是光线昏暗的森林，其中四只瘦弱的老狼正谨慎冲著他们低吼。
The three of them walked toward the three-dimensional world on the left, which looked like a holographic curtain. It was a dim forest, where four scrawny old wolves cautiously snarled at them.
三人如同走入一个森林舞台。
The three of them stepped onto it as if entering a forest stage.
噗！
*Pfft!*
杨子藏挥动银枪，一枪就戳穿了扑上来的那只体型瘦小的老狼头颅。
Yang Zicang swung his silver spear, and with a single thrust pierced the skull of the gaunt old wolf lunging at him.
[我收获了 7.1Y。]
[I harvested 7.1Y.]
七个月，它们的寿命好短。
Seven months—they have such short lifespans.
习惯了动辄几十年寿命的杨子藏略微吐槽了句，看向了另外几只吓得到处乱窜的灰狼。
Accustomed to lifespans of decades or more, Yang Zicang muttered a comment lightly and glanced at the other gray wolves scattering in panic.
这片显现的灰狼场地仅仅两个普通客厅大小，被暂时稳定空间的它们根本跑不出去。
This manifested gray wolf arena was only about the size of two ordinary living rooms, and with the space temporarily stabilized, they simply couldn’t escape.
一枪掷出，又一头狼被钉在地面，不断哀嚎。
He hurled the spear, and another wolf was pinned to the ground, wailing endlessly.
「真是好枪啊！ 而且你投得又准，啧啧。」
“What a fine spear! And your throws are so accurate, tsk, tsk.”
「这头狼你们解决吧。」
“I’ll leave this wolf for you to finish off.”
杨子藏对著被长枪订住未死的狼道。
Yang Zicang spoke to the wolf that Lance had pinned down but not yet killed.
洛宾笑哈哈的给他竖了个大拇指，努嘴示意梁喜上。
Robin Lo laughed heartily, giving him a thumbs-up, then pursed his lips to signal Liang Xi to go ahead.
梁喜紧了紧手上这把加装了木手把、打磨过尖端的钢条，走上前将它戳进了灰狼的心脏。
Liang Xi tightened his grip on the steel rod, fitted with a wooden handle and with its tip sharpened, stepped forward, and plunged it into the wolf’s heart.
「好轻松就得到了几个月寿命诶！」
“Just like that, we earned a few months of life!”
梁喜差点感动到哭。
Liang Xi was so moved he almost burst into tears.
解决完这几头普通的野兽，又待了两分钟，这片区域突地延展了两米左右。
After taking care of these ordinary beasts and waiting another two minutes, the area suddenly expanded by about two meters.
「稳定完毕。」
“Stabilization complete.”
洛宾看著杨子藏夸道：
Robin Lo looked at Yang Zicang and praised him:
「真快啊，才两分钟，用 c 级频晶来稳固地貌，都差不多要十分钟才行。 不愧是四边形Moexl。 你这四边形真厉害噢。」
“That was fast—only two minutes. Even using a C-grade frequency crystal to stabilize the terrain would take around ten minutes. No wonder you’re QuadMoxel. Your Quad is truly impressive.”
这阴阳怪气的家伙明显是在夸自己，杨子藏无语看了他一眼。
This smug bastard was obviously praising himself, and Yang Zicang glared at him speechlessly.
「好了，这表示几天内它不会变成别的世界了。」
“Alright, this means it won’t turn into another world for the next few days.”
「只要继续把森林场景变成这样，最后就真有片森林？」
“If we keep turning the forest scene like this, we’ll eventually have an actual forest?”
「没错。 另外，这些区域叫做交错幕景。」
“Exactly. Also, these areas are called Interwoven Vespers.”
杨子藏点头，这的确像一道道帷幕下的小场景。
Yang Zicang nodded—indeed, it felt like small scenes under the drapes of a curtain.
百闻不如一见，百见不如一练，杨子藏算是明白这里的规则了。
“Better to see once than hear a hundred times; better to practice once than see a hundred times.” Yang Zicang now had a clear grasp of the rules here.
森林场景时而出现，时而消失。 它们虽然数量多，但有些被一个个舞台般的密草丛、田地、河滩等地貌所隔断。
The forest scenes appeared and disappeared intermittently. Although numerous, some were separated by stage-like clusters of dense grass, fields, riverbanks, and other terrains.
并且这些地貌不断变换。
Moreover, these terrains kept shifting continuously.
「附近没有森林了。」
“There’s no forest nearby anymore.”
「我们等等就好，免得稳定了其它地貌，到时候要浪费更长时间等它们失频。」
“Let’s just wait a moment; otherwise, if we stabilize other terrains, we’ll only waste more time waiting for them to lose resonance.”
三人稍微等几分钟，身旁一处荒地消失，出现了另一片紧挨著的森林。
The three of them waited a few minutes, allowing a patch of wasteland nearby to vanish and give way to another adjacent forest.
「好厉害呀！」
“That’s amazing!”
梁喜看著突然自虚空中长出的，延伸到肩膀的树枝。
Liang Xi gazed at the branches that had suddenly grown out of thin air, extending to his shoulders.
「走吧，继续清理狼。」
“Let’s go. Keep cleaning up the wolves.”
噗噗！
Thud! Thud!
枪影闪动。
The shadows of spears flashed.
数只瘦弱的灰狼倒在三人手下。 这片两个舞台大的地貌清理完毕后，洛宾选了头体格比较拽实的狼将它剥皮切肉，从旁边树上凿来木条升了堆火。
A few scrawny gray wolves fell beneath the trio’s onslaught. After clearing this terrain, which covered an area the size of two stages, Robin Lo chose a wolf with a sturdier build, skinned it, sliced the meat, cut some wooden branches from a nearby tree, and stoked a fire.
「小子，我教你烤肉。」
“Kid, I’ll teach you how to roast meat.”
梁喜点点头。
Liang Xi nodded.
洛宾的动作熟练，而且他来之前备好了调味包，在这儿给两人好好的露了手。
Robin Lo’s movements were practiced; he had prepared seasoning packets before they came, putting on quite a show for the two here.
这就是有个老油条的好处，哪怕是置身于危险之地，有这种人在，也像是出来度假。
That was the benefit of having a seasoned veteran around—even when stuck in dangerous territory, having someone like him made it feel like a vacation.
烤到一半，附近的小片荒地缓慢变动，成为了新的森林幕景地。
While the meat was halfway done roasting, a nearby patch of wasteland slowly transformed into a new forest scene stage.
杨子藏抬头一看，它远处似乎有个若隐若现的小木屋。
Yang Zicang looked up and saw a faintly visible wooden cabin in the distance.
「像是有人居住？」
“Looks like someone lives there?”
「不，这里面不会有人。 如果是人形生物，那么就要小心了。」
“No, there shouldn’t be anyone inside. If it’s a humanoid creature, then we need to be careful.”
洛宾看了眼，示意梁喜接手自己串的狼肉。 他擦擦手拎起钢条往那里面走去。
Robin Lo glanced over and gestured for Liang Xi to take over the skewered wolf meat. He wiped his hands, picked up the steel rod, and strode toward it.
杨子藏跟上。
Yang Zicang followed.
「呜嗷~」
“Whoo~”
密密麻麻的身影自周围黑暗中冲出。
Dense figures surged out from the surrounding darkness.
「这么多？」 洛宾吓了跳。
“So many?” Robin Lo was startled.
杨子藏持枪进入。
Yang Zicang entered with his gun ready.
[梁喜想要为我进行主动投资。]
[Liang Xi wants to perform Pro-Invest for me.]
[梁喜为我投资了 50N。]
[Liang Xi Invested 50N for me.]
「我们已经稳定了两片森林区域，这是第三处。 随著相同地貌稳定越来越多，其它未显现的森林区域会更快显现。」
“We’ve already stabilized two forest areas, and this is the third. As more areas with the same terrain become stabilized, the other yet-unrevealed forest zones will appear faster.”
「这里毕竟只是 c 级区域，面积并不大，才清理两个就已经出现地貌聚合现象了。」
“After all, this is just a C-class zone—not large in area. Just after clearing two areas, we’re already seeing terrain convergence.”
洛宾掌中钢条金色虚影流转，虽然他并没有进行身材管理，但能在此摸爬滚打三年的人显然不是废材。
A golden phantom rippled through the steel rod in Robin Lo’s palm. Although he hadn’t bothered with physique management, anyone who could survive and thrive here for three years was clearly no slouch.
面对猛然扑袭而来的灰狼，他身形灵动，出手既快且准，几乎在电光火石间便精准地终结了近身两匹恶狼的性命。
Facing the gray wolf that lunged at him fiercely, his movements were agile, his strikes both fast and precise. In the blink of an eye, he cleanly ended the lives of two nearby savage wolves.
噗、噗！
Thump! Thump!
杨子藏手上长枪舞动得虽如同小孩打架，却速度奇怪，看上去倒也有几分像模像样的威势。
Yang Zicang’s Lance danced wildly, reminiscent of a child brawling, yet its speed was unnervingly swift, striking a pose that seemed somewhat imposing and decent.
[我共计收获了 2.11N。]
[I have harvested a total of 2.11N.]
两只狼倒地。
Two wolves lay toppled on the ground.
算上之前的两小块地貌区域，这一趟已经收获了接近五年的时序。
Including the two previous patches of terrain, this single trip had already netted nearly five years of Chronos.
这就是这里大多数人的时序来源。
This is the source of Chronos for most people here.
看上去似乎不错，却只有半个月的时间来累积它们，而且还要给月末留下三百年。
It looked promising enough, but they had only half a month to accumulate it, and they still needed to set aside three hundred years by the month’s end.
进入这里的普通人面对这些凶猛的野兽们，要每天至少要获得二三十年额外时序才行。
For ordinary people entering here, facing these ferocious beasts, they had to harvest at least twenty or thirty extra Chronos every single day.
这压力可想而知。
The pressure involved was unimaginable.
「太多了，我一个人去好了。」
“Too many; I’ll go alone.”
[投资人洛宾想为我进行主动投资。]
[Investor Robin Lo wishes to initiate a Pro-Invest for me.]
[洛宾为我投资 100N。]
[Robin Lo invest 100N for me.]
进行四倍增幅保护后，杨子藏拎著枪冲入十几米外区域。
After a four-fold amplification boost, Yang Zicang hoisted his spear and charged into the area a dozen meters away.
狼群早已等待多时，数道凶恶的身影扑了上来。
The wolf pack had already been waiting; several fierce silhouettes lunged at him.
枪影闪动，这些狼虽然数量多，但面对近在咫尺的杨子藏，它们的爪子却总是从他身旁惊险划过，落不到年轻人身上。
Spear shadows flickered; though the wolves were numerous, with Yang Zicang so close, their claws always grazed past him perilously, never landing on the young man.
噗嘭！
Plop!
一具接一具的灰狼躯体倒在血泊中，鲜血染红了地面。
One after another, grey wolf bodies crumpled into pools of blood, staining the ground red.
它们就像主动撞到枪尖上。
It was as if they were deliberately impaling themselves on the spear’s tip.
洛宾在后方看得一愣一愣的。
Robin Lo watched from behind, utterly dumbfounded.
清理完接近二十只狼的杨子藏长松了口气。
Yang Zicang, having finished off nearly twenty wolves, let out a long sigh of relief.
这片区域面积已经相当于之前的两处森林区域的总和。 随著他的前进，小木屋已经在不远处。
The area here was now roughly the size of the two previous forest zones combined. As he pressed forward, the wooden cabin came into view not far ahead.
摸到这扇木门时，杨子藏想起了之前的生锈铁门。
When his hand touched the wooden door, Yang Zicang recalled the rusted iron door from before.
「应该没这么倒楣吧。」
“It shouldn’t be that unlucky, right?”
他还是有点不放心，于是围著木屋转了圈，从一角因为漏雨发霉变形的木板处，找到了个能看清里面的缝隙。
Still uneasy, he circled the cabin and found a crack in a corner where a rain‑soaked, mold‑warped plank had come loose—just wide enough to peer inside.
凑眼看去，屋内是荒废许久的模样，里面有著猎人准备的物资，绳索、斧头与钉子，以及挂在墙上的干瘪狼皮和一张硬弓。
Peering through, he saw that the interior had long been abandoned, yet still held the hunter’s supplies: ropes, an axe, nails, as well as dry, shrunken wolf skins hanging on the wall and a sturdy bow.
