Chapter 43: Awakening and a Moon-Shadow Level Monster – 1
但坏处也很明显。
But the drawbacks were also obvious.
自己在里面经年的训练成果也未体现在现实的身体上，似乎要重新训练这具身体才行。
The results of years of training within that space didn’t carry over to his actual body; it seemed he would have to retrain this physique from scratch.
还好，至少脑袋中的经验还在，需要多费些时间与辛苦的话，就费些吧。
Still, at least the experience remained in his mind. If it required more time and effort, so be it.
等等…
Hang on…
杨子藏静静地待了那么十几秒后，张开眼看向周围。
Yang Zicang quietly waited for more than ten seconds, then opened his eyes and looked around.
洛宾把这剧场包厢的房间窗户打开后，在角落垫了个跟自己身下差不多的草垫，还多了些水和食物，看来他也在这睡觉休息。
Robin Lo opened the windows of the theater box room and set up a straw mat in the corner much like the one beneath himself, along with extra water and food. It looked like he too had been resting and sleeping there.
「梁喜呢？」
“Where’s Liang Xi?”
「那臭小子，我说让他来吃点东西，可他非要去蹲著外面的交错场地，防止那些家伙搞事情。」
“That damn kid. I told him to come and grab something to eat, but he insisted on squatting out in the shifting arena to keep those bastards from causing trouble.”
杨子藏立刻明白了不妙，看来那只队伍里的劫匪已经有人出来了。
Yang Zicang immediately sensed trouble—it seemed some bandits from that group had already emerged.
他起身走到窗户边，见到失去胳膊的余晨被悬挂在二楼坠下去的藤蔓上。
He walked to the window and saw Yu Chen, who had lost an arm, hanging from a vine dangling down from the second floor.
「他运气好，最先出来，但也是最先被吊上去的。」
“He was lucky to be the first out, but also the first to be strung up.”
「那他还真是倒楣。」
“Then he really is unlucky.”
稳定的空间已经变多了许多，闪动变换的交错幕影几乎没有了。
The stable space had grown much more extensive, with hardly any flickering, shifting tattered shadows left.
其它几个抢劫自己的成员变老许多，被捆住双手双脚蹲在互相离得有三四十米的废弃剧场内。
The other few members who had robbed him had aged considerably, bound hand and foot and squatting in the abandoned theater, spaced thirty to forty meters apart from one another.
一团小篝火映照著黑暗的空间，将他们愁苦的脸庞映照得明晦不定。
A small bonfire cast dim light across the dark space, flickering shadows over their gloomy faces.
「地盘已经这么大了？ 怎么还没有出口出现。」
“The territory is already this big? Why hasn’t an exit appeared yet?”
「带走频晶那小子使坏呗，故意强压著通道口不打开。」
“That kid who took the Frequency Crystal is playing dirty, deliberately keeping the passageway sealed.”
「这也可以？」
“Can he actually do that?”
「一般情况是不可以的。 但这儿还能算一般情况吗，进入交错地的人越多，越容易引动交错空间出现更强的怪物。 现在就是这么个情况。」
“Normally, no. But can you call this a normal situation? The more people enter the Crossspace, the easier it is to trigger stronger monsters from its confines. That’s exactly what’s happening now.”
杨子藏一下明白了洛宾的意思，制造这里的主人显然不愿意有人靠著数量来轻易获得时序。
Yang Zicang instantly understood what Robin Lo meant—the creator of this place clearly didn’t want people to obtain Chronos easily through sheer numbers.
因此进入交错地的人越多，越容易出现需要应对更强挑战的可能，原本属于折线Moexl的 c 级交错地进来那么多人，其中至少两个四边形，十来个三角形Moexl，不触发这种情况都说不过去。
Thus, the more people who enter the Crossspace, the greater the likelihood of having to face more formidable challenges. A C-grade Crossspace, originally a polyline Moxel’s domain, now had so many intruders—at least two Quads and over a dozen triangle Moxels—that it’d be suspicious if this scenario didn’t trigger.
「我是担心咯，光靠我们三人能不能应对后面出现的挑战，根据我这些年收集的情报，它基本是以进入这里最强者的实力强度所出现的。」
“I’m worried, y’know. Just the three of us—can we handle the challenges that come next? Based on the intel I’ve gathered over the years, it essentially manifests according to the strength of the strongest person in here.”
「这么恐怖？」
“That terrifying?”
杨子藏想到了那一招秒杀了八九人，却还选择阴恻恻搞偷袭的家伙。
Yang Zicang recalled the move that had instantly killed eight or nine people, yet this guy still chose to launch a sinister sneak attack.
「咦，哥你醒了。」
“Hey, bro, you’re awake!”
楼梯上的梁喜见到杨子藏的身影出现在二楼窗户内，顿时喜上眉梢，他噔噔噔冲上楼跑来。
Liang Xi On the stairs, seeing Yang Zicang’s figure appear inside the second-floor window, immediately brightened with joy. He thumped up the stairs and ran over.
「杨哥，大叔说你去什么梦里的世界寻找技能了，是不是真的？」
“Brother Yang, the uncle said you went to some dream world to find a skill—is that true?”
梁喜推门而入，迫不及待的问道。
Liang Xi pushed the door open and couldn’t wait to ask.
「是的。」
“Yeah.”
「哇啊，居然是真的，你们都好厉害啊。」
“Wow, it’s actually true! You guys are all so amazing.”
稍远几步的洛宾扯下块烤肉道：「别拍马屁了，现在你可比我厉害，至于这蠢蛋，你就别夸他了。」
Robin Lo, a few steps away, tore off a piece of grilled meat and said, “Stop flattering. You’re stronger than me now. As for this idiot, don’t boost his ego.”
杨子藏哑然，虽然前半句只是自嘲的玩笑话，但看来洛宾应该也没多少时序了，而且还是挨自己武器的打所耗掉的。
Yang Zicang fell silent. Though the first half was just a self-deprecating joke, it seemed Robin Lo didn’t have much Chronos left either, and it must have been spent taking blows from his own weapon.
「哥你找到的是什么技能，能用几次？」
“Big bro, what skill did you find out there? How many times can you use it?”
杨子藏的眉毛翘了翘，耸耸肩道：「目前还没找到。」
Yang Zicang’s brows rose, and he shrugged. “Haven’t found anything just yet.”
「欸？」 梁喜张开疑惑的眼睛。
“Huh?” Liang Xi’s eyes widened in genuine confusion.
「啥？」 洛宾停下手上的动作：」不会吧，你搞了这么久没搞定里面的怪物吗？ 等等，你刚刚说这次？」
“What?” Robin Lo paused his movements. “No way, you’ve been at it this long and still haven’t dealt with the monster inside? Wait, did you just say ‘this time’?”
他胸前的Moexl闪动了下。
The Moxel on his chest flickered briefly.
这个酒鬼虽然脑袋的反应速度跟不上真正的侦探，但有Moexl的说明，总能在有限的条件下总结出更多的资讯，但他此刻有点不敢确定。
Although this drunkard’s reaction speed couldn’t keep up with a real detective, with Moxel’s help, he could always piece together more information from limited clues—but at this moment, he wasn’t quite sure.
「噢，还好了，虽然没有获得技能，不过我还是有点收获。」
“Oh, it’s fine. Though I didn’t get a skill, I did gain something.”
杨子藏胸前的圆环浮现，四边形闪动著顺著手臂流动至摊开的掌中，一个地瓜的虚影突兀出现。
The ring on Yang Zicang’s chest materialized, and Quad shimmered as it flowed along his arm into his open palm. Suddenly, a phantom image of a sweet potato appeared out of nowhere.
梁喜吓了一跳。
Liang Xi was startled.
洛宾拿烤肉指了指：「这是什么情况，它是啥？ 你该不会搞到可以提供无限烤瓜的技能了吧。」
Robin Lo pointed with his grilled meat: “What’s this all about? What is it? Don’t tell me you got a skill that can supply unlimited roasted potatoes.”
杨子藏看向手中的地瓜，它只是个虚影，但却真实的蕴涵著不少纯净的能量。
Yang Zicang looked at the sweet potato in his hand. It was only a phantom, yet it genuinely contained a substantial amount of pure energy.
[初代大巫献供之物，它蕴含著浓烈的信愿。]
[The offering of the First Priest—it brims with ardent faith.]
「这是地瓜。」
“It’s a sweet potato.”
「呸，废话。」
“Pfft, no shit.”
[初代大巫相信我无所不能，吃下它的我可以同步一定的念境躯体能力。]
[The First Priest believed I was omnipotent; eating it will let me synchronize with certain Near Realm body abilities.]
[它可以提高其它食用者的意志力与精神抗性。]
[It can enhance the willpower and mental resistance of other consumers.]
初代大巫？
First Priest?
只会垮垮敲火石的家伙… 怎么混成巫的。
That guy who can only clumsily clack flint… how did he end up a priest?
不过阿武还真是给自己送了份不错的礼物，杨子藏心念一动，它变成了一大二小三份。
Still, Ah-wu did send him a decent gift. With a thought, Yang Zicang split it into one big piece and two small ones.
「来吧，分你们两口。」
“Here, share these two for yourselves.”
他做出拿捏动作，将看上去如同全息投影般的两小块地瓜给了两人。
He made a pinching gesture, offering two small pieces of sweet potato that looked like holographic projections to the two of them.
洛宾接过的同时，胸前Moexl浮现。
As Robin Lo took them, his Moxel appeared on his chest.
[我获得了「巫」的信愿之力，若是吃下它，我的精神会得到增长。]
[I have obtained the power of faith from the “Witch.” If I eat this, my spirit will be enhanced.]
洛宾震撼了。
Robin Lo was stunned.
「你这家伙！ 你去什么地方了啊？ 你，你该不会用的是完整…」
“You bastard! Where the hell have you been? You… you’re not telling me you used a complete—”
洛宾看向杨子藏的笑容，哪里还不知道自己猜对了。
Robin Lo looked at Yang Zicang’s smile and realized he had guessed correctly.
天啊！ 这个被狗屎运附体的狗东西。
Good grief! This lucky son of a bitch, blessed by sheer dumb luck.
梁喜捧著虚影地瓜露出了狂喜表情。
Liang Xi held the phantom sweet potato, a look of ecstasy spreading across his face.
「我就知道，大哥你肯定不会空手而归。」
“I knew it, big bro—you’d never come back empty-handed.”
他一口吞掉了手上的小块地瓜虚影。
He swallowed the small phantom piece of sweet potato in one gulp.
洛宾看看手上，又看看杨子藏，感叹地道：「你这家伙真是，我真是又被你气到了…」
Robin Lo glanced at his own hand, then back at Yang Zicang, and sighed, “You’re really something, man. I swear, you’ve pissed me off again…”
「真什么是，这是拿命换的。」
“What the hell do you mean? This cost me my life.”
自己可是真真切切经历了两次死亡的人，杨子藏将地瓜虚影塞入嘴中，它化为光芒融入体内。
He had truly endured death twice, yet Yang Zicang shoved the phantom sweet potato into his mouth, where it dissolved into light and merged into his body.
[我对火的感知更为敏锐，并获得一定的耐热抗性。]
[My perception of fire has sharpened, and I have gained some heat resistance.]
[我对食物的感知更为敏锐，并获得一定的耐饿体质。]
[My sensation of food has become more acute, and I have gained a certain endurance against hunger.]
[我对低精神力者的威信增加了。]
[My prestige among those with low mental strength has increased.]
[我可以运用念境内的训练结果，同步率为50%.]
[I can apply the training results from the Near Realm, with a synchronization rate of 50%.]
杨子藏感觉身躯内有一股力量爆发，游走四肢百骸，身体肌肉凝实许多。
A surge of power erupted within Yang Zicang’s body, flowing through his limbs and bones, causing his physique to become far more solid.
他挥动了两下手臂，拳影竟带起了空气的劲鸣，哪怕仅同步了百分之五十的梦境训练内容，那也是好几百年。
He swung his arms twice, and the shadow of his fists tore through the air with a sharp whistle; even synchronizing only fifty percent of the dream training content meant accumulating centuries of experience.
虽然其中大部分时间都是加速，但也不是李王那种拳击教练可比拟的。
Though most of that time was time-accelerated, it was still far beyond what a boxing coach like King Li could compare to.
「轰！」
“Boom!”
杨子藏转身一拳对著窗户打去，明明还有几米距离，但劲风脱手而出旋转扩大，在窗户旁炸响。
Yang Zicang spun around and threw a punch toward the window. Though several meters away, the blast of force left his fist, spinning and expanding, before exploding with a deafening crack against the window frame.
「不错，威力没怎么减少。」
“Not bad—hardly any loss in power.”
年轻人看著自己的拳头满意地道。
The young man said, gazing at his fist with satisfaction.
身旁两人呆若木鸡。
The two people beside him stood frozen in shock.
但杨子藏皱了皱眉，自己的感知力在吃下这地瓜后变强了许多，此刻他察觉脑袋内似乎有团异常能量。
But Yang Zicang furrowed his brow—after eating the sweet potato, his perception had increased drastically. He now sensed a strange cluster of energy inside his mind.
交错地猛然震动，外面又一个区域被稳定下来，鼻青脸肿的苍老身影哭天抢地的抱著个比他强壮数倍的梅花鹿尸体。
It buzzed in erratic bursts, and beyond, another area abruptly stabilized. A battered, swollen-faced elderly figure wailed as he clung dearly to a fallen sika deer’s corpse—far larger and stronger than his own body.
「我终于，终于活下来了。」
“I finally… finally made it out alive.”
[我察觉到交错空间的同频率已超越百分之一百三十。]
[I detect that Crosspace synchronization has exceeded 130 percent.]
随著心念的诞生，周围气氛多了些特殊的难以形容的气息，杨子藏等几人看向窗外。
As the thought was born, an indescribable flow of strange energy permeated the atmosphere. Yang Zicang and the others turned to look out the window.
这气息既荒凉，又有著孕育其中的浑厚能量。
This aura was both desolate and imbued with a profound energy that gestated within.
[交错空间即将受到月光的照耀，我应该做好应对准备。]
[Crosspace is about to be bathed in moonlight; I must make preparations. ]
一道道悬坠的烛台亮了起来，整个交错地的光线迅速明亮许多，剧场内出现了空气旋动的迹象。
One by one, suspended candelabras flared to life, the light within the entire Crosspace swiftly growing much brighter, stirring signs of air currents in the theater.
外界几名抢劫犯骚动的道：
Several bandits outside stirred restlessly, saying:
「没有新的幕影出现了，老田该不会被鹿撞到死？」
“That’s the last act that’s going to flicker in. Old Tian ain’t making it outta this one, huh?”
「大概，可能是吧。」
“Probably, maybe.”
「欸，我的Moexl在说什么，这是什么意思？」
“Hey, what’s my Moxel saying? What does that mean?”
[皎月出现。]
[The bright moon appears. ]
几个被捆著手的抢劫犯抬眼望去，剧场顶端出现片浮云，一轮新月隐约在其后方浮现。
Several bandits with their hands bound looked up, seeing a wisp of clouds drifting across the top of the theater, where the faint silhouette of a crescent moon emerged.
噼啪！
Crackle!
Y 字形楼梯正上方的墙壁雷鸣响动，蛛网般的裂缝出现，墙壁被巨力推动嘭地爆裂碎开。
The wall directly above the Y-shaped staircase roared with thunder, as web-like fissures spread and the wall was blasted apart by a tremendous force with a loud bang.
红色雷霆闪电从其中射出。
Red thunder and lightning shot forth from within.
一人还未反应过来便被红色的细密闪电包裹，啪啪声中顷刻焦黑一片，像干燥的泥人般倒在地上。
One person, before they could even react, was wrapped in dense crimson bolts. In a crackling instant, they were charred black and collapsed to the ground like a dried clay figure.
「救命啊。」
“Help!”
他们吓得魂飞魄散，但捆住手脚的几人根本难以避让。
They were scared out of their wits, but the few tied up hands and feet found it nearly impossible to dodge.
杨子藏三人展开Moexl退避到一旁，洛宾急道：
The three people—Yang Zicang and the others—unfurled their Moxels and retreated to the side. Robin Lo urged anxiously:
「我记得在总部的付费月报上曾看过这样的雷光，一个好消息和一个坏消息你们想听哪个？」
“I remember seeing a lightning like this in the monthly paid report from HQ—got a good news and a bad news. Which one do you want to hear?”
「好的。」
“Good.”
「坏的。」
“Bad.”
杨子藏和梁喜同时下意识开口。
Yang Zicang and Liang Xi blurted out simultaneously, instinctively.
「我靠，都这个时候了你就别训练你那狗屁Moexl能力了好吗！」
“Fuck’s sake! At a time like this, you’re still training your damn Moxel ability?!”
轰隆！ 数道雷霆在剧场内凭空爆闪，又有人瞬间被炸飞。
Boom! Several bolts of lightning flashed out of nowhere inside the theater, sending someone flying in an instant.
一道电弧闪进二楼房间，杨子藏抬拳打去，金芒闪动，与之撞到一起。
An electric arc streaked into a second-floor room. Yang Zicang swung a punch at it; golden light flickered and collided against it.
[我抵消了 300N。]
[I neutralized 300N.]
电弧顺著全身游走，从里到外从上到下给过了遍。
The electric current traveled through his entire body, sweeping from the inside out and from head to toe.
杨子藏的脸色瞬间垮了下去，只是小电弧就如此强，这要是出去被炸一下，这里的人还能不能活命？
Yang Zicang’s face instantly went grim. If just a minor arc was this strong, could anyone here survive getting hit by an actual blast?
紫红的雷霆在空气中不断冒出，密布四处。 空气被割裂般扭曲，一道道震耳欲聋的声音在各处爆开。
Violet-red lightning continuously erupted in the air, spreading everywhere, twisted and distorted as though the very atmosphere was being shattered. A deafening roar exploded at every corner.
当雷声熄灭，整个大剧场内本就破败的靠椅与装饰已经被雷霆给彻底崩坏，地面都变得焦黑。
When the thunder died down, the already shabby chairs and decorations inside the grand theater had been thoroughly destroyed by the lightning. Even the floor had turned charred black.
「糟糕，现在是两个坏消息了。」 洛宾气喘吁吁睁大眼睛道。
“Shit. Now it’s two bad news,” Robin Lo panted, his eyes wide open.
「什么？」
“What?”
「第一，这种在 c 级区域的雷电型怪物能力属于最强那几种; 第二，咱们遇到的雷比资料上记载的范围大了好多啊。 这代表著我们恐怕遇到了 c 级交错地内数一数二的怪物。」
“First, within C-class areas, lightning-type monsters rank among the strongest types; second, the lightning we encountered has a much larger range than the records indicate. This means we’ve likely run into one of the top-tier monsters in a C-class crossroads zone.”
「那好消息呢？」 杨子藏贴著墙呲牙咧嘴的道。
“And the good news is?” Yang Zicang said through gritted teeth, pressing himself against the wall.
哪怕抵消了时序，电弧带来的酥麻感还是让他体会到了什么叫做摸高压线。
Even after neutralizing Chronos, the tingling numbness from the electric arcs gave him a firsthand taste of what it felt like to touch a high-voltage line.
「好消息是我们要是活下去，应该会得到伴生小雕像。」
“The good news is, if we survive this, we should get a companion statuette.”
