Chapter 88: Justiceer –2
杨子藏靠著沈吟之夜对环境的感知能力闭眼狂奔，绝不回头去看。
Yang Zicang sprinted with his eyes shut, relying entirely on Shenyin’s Awareness of the environment, never daring to look back.
慌乱、拒绝、被天地抛弃。
Panic. Rejection. Abandoned by heaven and earth.
怪物闭眼感受著这突然出现的情绪，轻轻壹叹。
The monster closed its eyes, savoring this sudden surge of emotions, and let out a soft sigh.
「原来如此。与万物沟通的能力，的确是个不错的应选人。即便是在我所在的时代啊，妳也是个值得调教的融脉者或者契月使了。」
“I see. The ability to communicate with all things is indeed a fine trait for a candidate. Even in my era, you would have been worth mentoring as a Vein Researcher or a Quintessence Seeker.”
他看向杨子藏只是逃跑的身影，已经快到要冲出这片多出来的失频之地。
It watched Yang Zicang fleeing before it, his figure nearly reaching the boundary of this newly emerged Shibin Wastes.
怪物转头，注视向远方逃跑的几人身影，他们在杨子藏的感知中已是几个小黑点，除了秦蒙，其它几人即将失去联系。
The monster turned its gaze to the distant figures bolting away. In Yang Zicang’s perception, they were mere black dots; soon, apart from Chin Mong, the others would lose their connection.
「不好。」
“Not good.”
杨子藏无奈转头张开眼转头道：「滚过来，妳的对手是我！」
Yang Zicang had no choice but to turn, opening his eyes in defiance: “Get back here! Your opponent is me!”
他断掉了跟逐银的心灵链接，与王翀联系，并告知他们继续跑，且不要回头去看。
He severed the Syn-Link with Junyin Chase, relayed this message to Wang Chong, telling them: keep running, and do not look back.
校正官哼哼壹笑，盯著杨子藏转过来的头道：「这样才对嘛，来吧，他们就是妳跟我战斗的筹码。妳赢，他们活；妳死，他们死。」
Justiceer chuckled as it locked eyes with the now-facing Yang Zicang: “That’s more like it. Come on, they are the stakes of our fight. If you win, they live. If you die, they die.”
在杨子藏看到它的瞬间，月影级的身影瞬间消失在原地，出现在杨子藏眼前，壹拳挥出。
The moment Yang Zicang laid eyes on it, that Lunar-Grade silhouette vanished in an instant, reappeared right in front of him, and swung a fist.
两只势大力沈的拳头第壹次撞击在壹起。
The first collision of two heavy, powerful fists.
嘭！
Boom!
轰隆！
Rumble!
[我已抵消2000N本金。]
[I have offset 2000N of principal.]
肉疼。
Ouch, that hurts.
[逐银想要为我进行投资。]
[Ju Yin Chase wants to Invest for me.]
｛妳要多少时序，告诉我。｝
｛Tell me how much Chronos you need.｝
「三千九。」
“Three thousand nine hundred.”
[逐银为我投资了3900N.]
[Ju Yin Chase Invested 3900N for me.]
杨子藏增幅开时序后，与校正官游走对战起来，两道身影如同武道大师般在地上横腾闪挪。
After Yang Zicang activated Chronos, he engaged in a hit-and-run battle with Justiceer, the two figures darting and weaving on the ground like martial arts masters.
此刻天上的光团追著杨子藏两人跑，隐隐约约的心念声传来，却听不清楚，像是它们怕打扰下方的人，主动屏蔽了聊天内容。
At this moment, the light clusters in the sky chased after Yang Zicang and the other, faint telepathic voices could be heard but unclearly, as if they, fearing to disturb the ones below, had deliberately muted the chat.
想也知道是些没营养的宝宝互夸信息。
One could guess these were just bland mutual praises between babies.
杨子藏躲过壹拳心中快速道：
Yang Zicang dodged a punch and mentally spoke quickly:
[妳有多少时序，我要给妳返回我失去增幅的时序。]
[How much Chronos do you have? I need to return the Chronos I used to boost myself.]
｛这个…我这里还有很多欸，妳等等我清理下。｝
｛Well… I still have a lot over here, give me a second to sort things out.｝
两秒后，逐银道：
Two seconds later, Ju Yin Chase said:
｛可以了，先给我五千，我再给妳五千。｝
｛Alright, give me five thousand first, then I’ll send you five thousand.｝
[我返还投资3900N，并派发超级红利5000N！]
[I returned the Invested 3900N with a super bonus of 5200N!]
杨子藏紧张注视著对面怪物所挥动的手臂，等到终于在不知壹秒还是壹点五秒后收到的新时序投资。他迎著对面冲来的身影迅速张开胸前Moexl！
Yang Zicang watched nervously as the monster across from him swung its arm, until, after what felt like either one or one and a half seconds, he received the new Chronos Investment. He faced the onrushing figure, quickly opening his Moxel on his chest!
四边形闪耀！
Quadra Flare!
银枪携带炙热火焰幻影敲向怪物胸膛，在怪物侧身躲避这刺枪的瞬间，改刺为扫壹枪横向荡出！
The silver spear, carrying a phantom of blazing flames, struck towards the monster’s chest, and in the instant the monster sidestepped to dodge the thrust, it changed from a thrust to a sweep, swinging horizontally!
火焰中突然冒出金红色的虚影，与烈焰混合。
A golden-red apparition suddenly emerged from the flames, mingling with the inferno.
嘭！长枪结结实实打在校正官身上。
Boom! The Lance struck Justiceer solidly.
[我被抵消15000N]
[I have nullified 15000N]
「怎么可能！」做出闪避动作却依旧被击中的校正官很是惊讶。
“How is that possible!” Justiceer, having made a dodge yet still been hit, was greatly astonished.
但他被击中缺失的部分迅速重新长出。老化枯槁的肌肉如同重新充满生机的植物，快速复原。
But the parts of him that were struck swiftly regenerated. The aged, withered muscles rapidly restored themselves, like plants brimming with life anew.
「震惊于我的复生能力，是吗？想知道这是为什么吗？」
“Stunned by my regenerative ability, aren’t you? Want to know why this is?”
想知道，但…
He wanted to know, but…
无法言喻的危险预警在杨子藏心中冒出。
An indescribable alarm of danger welled up in Yang Zicang’s heart.
遥远时空之外，仿佛壹道目光缓缓投了过来。之前梦中出现的那人所告知的信息快速闪过杨子藏的脑海。
From a distant spacetime beyond, it was as if a gaze had slowly cast over. The information spoken by the figure from the dream flashed rapidly through Yang Zicang’s mind.
——它们在收寻「闪光」。
—They are seeking the “Flash.”
不能听这个秘密，至少不能是这个时候。
He could not listen to this secret—at least not at this moment.
校正官略带狰狞地笑道：「因为啊，所有能力都来自…」
Justiceer chuckled with a hint of ferociousness: “Because, all abilities come from…”
光团们从天上凑近了些。
The light clusters drew closer from the sky.
「不，滚！」
“No, you don’t!”
杨子藏壹拳打出，狂风携带烈焰，将那正在擦嘴吐露世界真实信息的怪物壹拳打翻。
Yang Zicang lashed out with a punch, bringing with it gale-force winds and blazing fire, knocking the monster who was about to spill the truth of the world with a wipe of its mouth flat.
「闭嘴！」
“Shut up!”
自己毕竟拥有修行了数千年的经验，还好在第壹次进入念境世界，为了不浪费时序，同时为了教导野人播种文明，至少壹半时间都真实的度过，从而得到锻炼。
After all, having cultivated for thousands of years, fortunately, when first entering the Near Realm world, to avoid wasting Chronos and to teach the savages the seeds of civilization, he spent at least half of the time genuinely, thus gaining training.
眼前的怪物虽然能力诡异，但武道技巧明显不如自己练习了不知多少年的武技。而他的格斗秘技并不多，只有爪上的劲风。
The monster before him, though possessing bizarre abilities, its martial skills clearly trailed behind the techniques he had honed for years. Its combat secrets were meager, limited to the wind from its claws, nothing more.
[我已诞生名气，于失频之地。]
[I have now claimed a name in the Shibin Wastes.]
杨子藏终于懂名气谓之于谁了——是对于这片大地。
Yang Zicang finally understood who the reputation belonged to—it was for this very land.
他再次切断了跟逐银的链接，迅速与逃跑的左非闲取得联系。心灵感应对面的那家伙非常抱歉的想要开口解释，杨子藏打断他急道：
He severed the link with Ju Yin Chase again and swiftly contacted the fleeing Zuo Feixian. Through telepathy, the other party was prepared to apologize before speaking, but Yang Zicang cut him off gruffly:
「妳的那只手说过，‘下次危机会来帮忙，‘他人呢？」
“That hand of yours once said, it would help when danger strikes next. Where is he now?”
顿了两秒，远方跑得裤子都快掉了的左非闲带著哭腔道：
After a two-second pause, Zuo Feixian, whose pants were practically slipping off as he ran, sobbed:
「哥，我的那位大爷说，是应对妳的危机。但这次的危机不属于妳。」
“Brother, that lord of mine said it was for your crisis. But this crisis is not yours.”
「汰！」
“Tsk!”
杨子藏下意识转头看向遥远地方的那位老人…苍老的秦蒙消耗了自己的所有寿命，正满含歉意的望著自己，眼中充满苍凉之意。
Yang Zicang instinctively turned to look at the old man far away… The aging Chin Mong had exhausted all his lifespan, staring back with apologetic eyes filled with desolation.
壹道折线闪动而去，杨子藏打算为秦蒙继续投资续命。
A jagged line flashed away as Yang Zicang prepared to extend Chin Mong’s remaining lifespan through [Invest].
[应选者秦蒙拒绝了我的投资。]
[Elect Chin Mong has rejected my Invest.]
「我没有资格接受妳的帮助。」
“I don’t deserve your help.”
怪物从地上爬起来，扭了扭脖子，发出咔咔的骨头归位声。
The monster rose from the ground, twisting its neck with a series of cracking sounds as bones snapped back into place.
杨子藏躲过怪物再次袭来的身影，但对方就像是个成年人戏耍不断攻击自己的小孩似的，显得很是无所谓。
Yang Zicang dodged another onslaught from the creature, but the monster seemed indifferent, like an adult toying with a child who lashed out helplessly again and again.
「什么叫没有资格？我把妳带到这里来，就是为了听妳这句狗屁不通的话的？」
“What do you mean, ‘don’t deserve’? Did I bring you all this way just to hear such bullshit?”
秦蒙痛苦的捂著头，「我无法面对大家，我带来了灾难…如果妳在这里身陨，大家刚充满希望的未来又会黯淡无光。」
Chin Mong clutched his head in agony. “I can’t face everyone. I brought disaster… If you fall here, the future they’ve just begun to hope for will sink back into darkness.”
「光杵著能有什么改变！」杨子藏吼道：」我们不是壹个团队的吗，妳的拼图里，我们算什么？妳这个家伙，快接受我的投资！」
“Standing around like a stick of wood won’t change a thing!” Yang Zicang roared. “Aren’t we a team? What are we in your puzzle? You idiot, just accept my Invest!”
秦蒙擡起头，看向远方两道不断争斗的身影。
Chin Mong lifted his head and gazed into the distance at the two figures locked in constant battle.
「团队…拼图。」
“A team… a puzzle.”
忽地秦蒙只觉得脑袋壹热。
Suddenly, a surge of heat flooded Chin Mong’s mind.
[我突然意识到，社会就是张大拼图，人虽独立，却独而不失「和合」。无人不需要他人的贡献与需求，从而支撑自己的立足。]
[It dawned on me that society is a giant puzzle. Though individuals stand alone, they need not lose the harmony of “unity in diversity ” in solitude. No one can stand on their own without the contributions and needs of others to support their footing.]
[我在感悟，觉得我要长点什么了。]
[In that moment of epiphany, I felt as if something within me was about to grow.]
跟著杨子藏屁股转的壹堆小光团突然折返了部分出来，冲向了秦蒙。
A cluster of tiny light orbs that had been trailing Yang Zicang suddenly diverted, surging toward Chin Mong.
[我的名气正在增加，于失频之地。]
[My fame is rising, out here in the Shibin Wastes.]
秦蒙胸前的圆环中，缓缓旋转的钝角旁，缺失的地方诞生了个小光点。
In the ring at Chin Mong’s chest, beside the slowly rotating obtuse angle, a new pinpoint of light snapped into existence in the empty space.
｛呀，名人在觉悟中大爆发！｝
{Ah, the luminary erupts in a blaze of awakened power!}
小光团内隐约有著道道精灵小幻影。小家伙们挥动著手上比腿毛还细小的笔，在皱皱巴巴的白纸上写著什么。
Vague, ethereal flickers of elemental spirits stirred within the small globes of light. These tiny entities brandished pens finer than leg hair, scribbling something on crumpled white paper.
秦蒙的眼睛自然闭上，胸前三角形的细线开始疯狂闪动。
Chin Mong’s eyes slid shut naturally, and the finely etched lines of the triangle on his chest began to flicker wildly.
[杨子藏想要为我进行全权时序投资，我想我需要这份投资。]
[Yang Zicang intends to execute a full ChronosInvest on my behalf. I believe I stand in need of this Invest.]
[杨子藏为我投资全权时序5000N，时效壹年。]
[Yang Zicang has invested in me a full Chronos5000N, with a term of one year.]
秦蒙紧闭的眼角出现泪水。
Tears welled at the corners of Chin Mong’s tightly shut eyes.
｛多么感人的友谊呀。｝
{Ah, what a truly stirring friendship this is.}
｛大名人的朋友真是好人，是跟花漂漂壹样纯净的心灵呢。｝
{Truly, the luminary’s friend is a person of exceptional virtue, possessing a spirit as pure and unsullied as Hua Piaopiao’s.}
｛我要记录这份感动。｝
{I must record this profound, heart-swelling moment.}
身体不再苍老的秦蒙缓缓睁开眼。
Chin Mong, his form no longer touched by decay, slowly opened his eyes.
他看向远处，此刻在秦蒙眼中，已经没有人与人的差别，他所看到的杨子藏只是道金色的光华，他身上出现个1字。
He gazed into the distance. In this moment, the boundaries between men had utterly dissolved in his sight. What he perceived of Yang Zicang was nothing but a shaft of golden light upon which a figure—his own—the number “1,” had come to rest.
[完整碎片开始赋予：1号。]
[Begin assigning complete fragment: No. 1.]
而追逐著他的怪物是另壹道暗红。
And the monster chasing him was another dark crimson figure.
杨子藏感觉自己周围突然像是缺失了什么，这是壹种无言的感触，仿佛突然才发现，原本完整的自己并不完整。
Yang Zicang felt something inexplicably missing around him—an indescribable sense, as if he suddenly realized that his originally whole self was never truly whole.
挨了几拳的怪物擦了擦嘴角，「有人想要改变这个世界，有人想要阻止改变，有人想要有限改变，这就是让妳听或不听的缘由。」
The monster, having taken a few punches, wiped the corner of its mouth. “Some want to change this world, some want to stop change, and others want limited change. That’s the reason you listen or refuse to listen.”
「闭嘴！」
“Shut up!”
校正官两只头颅中的壹只看向远方的秦蒙，另壹只注视著前方的靑年，忽然吼道：
One head of the Justiceer turned toward Chin Mong in the distance, while the other fixed its gaze on the youth ahead, suddenly roaring:
「因为这是新的世界！」
“Because this is a new world!”
光团们又呼啦壹下飞了过来。
The light clusters whooshed back over again.
月影怪物擡手咯咯地笑：
The moon-shadow monster raised a hand and chuckled:
「虽然制造我的那些杂碎们是阻止改变的壹员！不过我并不看好他们！异世之人，其实我们曾经的世界也有诸多美好，再烂的环境也可能埋藏珍宝，我讲述的事情妳虽不愿听，但我觉得它就是我们世界最好的东西。」
“Although the scumbags who made me are part of the faction halting change! I don’t think much of them, though. O stranger from another world, our former world had plenty of beauty too—scrap heaps can still hide treasures. The stories I tell, you don’t want to hear, but I believe they’re the best our world had to offer.”
｛那请问，是什么呢？｝
{And what might that be, pray tell?}
天际的小光团中有些漂浮而出问道。
Among the lights floating across the sky, a few drifted forward and asked.
｛呀，记者不能对非名人提问呢，可是…又好想知道。｝
{Ah, a reporter can’t question a non-celebrity… but I’m dying to know.}
杨子藏目光猛地壹睁。
Yang Zicang’s eyes snapped wide open.
怪物居然主动向后退了几步，他边退边张开了嘴巴，狞笑张嘴。
The monster actually took several steps back on its own. As it retreated, it opened its mouth and grinned fiercely.
「住嘴！」杨子藏怒道。他隐约觉察到，怪物讲出的关于以前的事情越多，对这里越不好。
“Shut up!” Yang Zicang said angrily. He had a vague feeling that the more the monster talked about the past, the worse it would be for this place.
「能力来自血脉之环……」校正官道。
“The power comes from the Bloodline Rings…” Justiceer said.
刷刷刷！
Shua, shua, shua!
天上可爱的小记者们纷纷埋头做著记录。
The lovely little reporters in the sky all lowered their heads, busy taking notes.
[妳的名气已极速增加。]
[Your Fame Has Increased Rapidly.]
对面的怪物两只头露出邪恶微笑：「血脉之环来自魂殿。」
The two heads of the monster on the opposite side flashed evil smiles. “The Bloodline Rings come from the Soul Hall.”
｛哇，原来是这样。｝
{Wow, so that’s how it is.}
｛我们是不是也要有魂殿才好呢。｝
{Maybe we need a Soul Hall too, right?}
说出这话的怪物极度的满意，他往前走去，体表肌肉扭动，像是蓄积著庞大力量的血肉机器。
The monster that had spoken was immensely satisfied. It strode forward, its body muscles writhing like a machine of flesh and blood, amassing enormous power.
「哼哼，想知道魂殿存在于哪里吗？魂殿存在于…嗯？」
“Heh, want to know where the Soul Hall exists? It exists… Huh?
杨子藏脚下的土地瞬间消失，在上面的他也随之消失，出现在片灰蒙蒙的空间。
The ground beneath Yang Zicang’s feet vanished instantly, and he vanished along with it, appearing in a gray, hazy space.
而在校正官眼中，青年所在的位置已经没有了其踪迹。
And in Justiceer’s eyes, the young man’s spot was now completely empty.
「呵，无所谓。关键信息的校正…好奇的种子埋下，世界的锚点便也算埋下了…已经差不多了。」
“Ha! Doesn’t matter. The key anchor of information… The seeds of curiosity are sown, so the world’s anchorage is set… Almost done.”
杨子藏看著脚下的小片草原，像是漂浮在这里似的，是灰蒙蒙空间中的唯壹。
Yang Zicang looked at the small patch of grassland beneath his feet, floating as if in this space— the only splash of life in the gray haze.
「这是哪里？秦蒙，放我出去！」
“Where is this? Chin Mong, let me out!”
｛子藏哥，谢谢妳，我已经不壹样了。等我做好这些，再让妳出来。｝
“Brother ZiCang, thank you. I’m different now. Let me finish this before I set you free.”
极度紧张的杨子藏擡起头，刚才他感觉整个世界都在注视著自己，在倾听著自己，就在那关键的时候，自己出现在了这里。
The utterly tense Yang Zicang lifted his head. Just moments ago, he felt the entire world watching him, listening to him—until, at that critical moment, he had appeared here.
魂殿来自哪里？
Where did the Soul Hall come from?
他怔怔的想到。
He pondered in a daze.
血脉之环，为什么自己没有那种东西，等等…
The bloodline ring—why didn’t he have one? Wait…
环？
Ring?
他低头看向自己的胸口，那里壹道银白圆环缓缓转动。
He lowered his gaze to his chest, where a silver-white ring was slowly spinning.
