189 困惑与明朗

旁白 neutral

" This is weird," Zann thought

“真奇怪。”赞恩想。

旁白 neutral

" How can this woman not know about the Niffian towns we've seen?"

“我们见过的那些尼菲安城镇，这个女人怎么可能不知道？”

旁白 neutral

" We're sorry to have bothered you," Perda said, her voice shaking slightly

“很抱歉打扰您了。”佩达说，声音微微发颤。

旁白 neutral

" Come on, you guys. Let's go."

“走啦，大伙儿，我们走吧。”

旁白 neutral

She rushed away. Zann and Zing followed

她匆匆走开。赞恩和京跟了上去。

旁白 neutral

" Wait up," Yarb called." Don't leave me in this smelly place!"

“等等！”亚布喊道，“别把我丢在这个臭烘烘的地方！”

旁白 neutral

When they reached a meadow, Zann stopped

到了草地，赞恩停了下来。

旁白 neutral

" Why don't we stay here for a little while and rest?"

“我们何不在这儿歇一会儿？”

旁白 neutral

Perda shook her head." Not here. Not until we figure out what's going on."

佩达摇了摇头。“不在这儿歇，等我们把事情弄清楚了再说。”

旁白 neutral

Zann barely had time to grab Zing before Perda zapped

the whole group to the wormhole.

旁白 neutral

Soon they were back in the vortex

很快他们又回到了旋涡中。

旁白 neutral

Zann wasn't sure why Perda looked so scared

赞恩不确定佩达为什么看起来如此害怕。

旁白 neutral

But now he was starting to worry too

但现在他也开始担心了。

旁白 neutral

Nothing about the worlds they'd found made sense

他们发现的世界全都讲不通。

旁白 neutral

" There's a wormhole," Perda said, reaching out to grab it

“有个虫洞，”佩达说着，伸手去抓。

旁白 neutral

When Zann pulled himself up beside her, he saw a world

with purple trees and green grass.

旁白 neutral

" This is Wyssa's home world!" he exclaimed." I'm sure of it!"

“这是维萨的家乡世界！”他惊呼道，“我敢肯定！”

旁白 neutral

They pulled themselves out." Who's Wyssa?" Yarb asked

他们爬了出来。“维萨是谁？”亚布问道。

旁白 neutral

Zann barely heard him

赞恩几乎没听到他的话。

旁白 neutral

" This world has very weak magic," he said, remembering their previous visit

“这个世界的魔法非常微弱，”他说，记起了他们上次的到访。

旁白 neutral

Perda nodded." It should be enough for us to create food

and refresh our energy though.

旁白 neutral

Let's look for people."

我们去找人吧。”

旁白 neutral

On their previous visit, Wyssa had purposely landed in a deserted area

上次来时，维萨故意降落在了一片荒无人烟的地方。

旁白 neutral

She had been shunned by her people and didn't want to see them

她曾被自己的族人排斥，所以不想见到他们。

旁白 neutral

She hadn't even told the kids the name of this world

她甚至没告诉孩子们这个世界的名字。

旁白 neutral

" Wyssa is so powerful," Zann said as they walked, with Zing flying overhead

“维萨那么强大，”他们边走边聊，辛在他们头顶飞着，赞恩说。

旁白 neutral

" Maybe someone here knows how to contact her

“也许这里有人知道怎么联系她。

旁白 neutral

We could ask her to take Yarb home, check on Mellis

and point us toward Magica."

旁白 neutral

They reached a small settlement. Several people emerged to greet them

他们来到一个小村落。几个人走出来迎接他们。

旁白 neutral

" Welcome!" an older man said." Are you visitors to Roxo?"

“欢迎！”一位年长的男子说道，“你们是来罗克索的访客吗？”

旁白 neutral

" Is that the name of this world?" Perda asked

“这就是这个世界的名字吗？”佩达问道。

旁白 neutral

" Thanks for the welcome. We're from Magica."

“谢谢你们的欢迎。我们来自马吉卡。”

旁白 neutral

" Magica?" The man furrowed his brow." Is that a settlement in Niffia?"

“马吉卡？”男人皱起眉头。“是尼菲亚的一个定居点吗？”

旁白 neutral

A woman laughed." Of course not," she said

一个女人笑了起来。“当然不是。”她说。

旁白 neutral

" They have noses! They must be from Illumos or perhaps Skellia."

“他们有鼻子！他们一定来自伊鲁莫斯，或者也许是斯凯利亚。”

旁白 neutral

" No, we're from Magica." Zann was surprised that nobody

seemed to recognize the name.

旁白 neutral

" Well, except for Yarb," he added." He's from Terrica."

“嗯，亚布除外。”他补充道。“他来自特里卡。”

旁白 neutral

" Terrica," the man said." Isn't that the world you

discovered a few years ago, Tassa?"

旁白 neutral

A young woman stepped forward. Zann blinked

一位年轻女子走上前来。赞恩眨了眨眼。

旁白 neutral

" Wow, you look like a younger, taller, friendlier version of Wyssa!"

“哇，你看起来就像是更年轻、更高、更友善版的维萨！”

旁白 neutral

He immediately regretted saying that

他立刻后悔说了那句话。

旁白 neutral

What if these people were still mad at her?

万一这些人还在生她的气呢？

旁白 neutral

But Tassa didn't look mad. She looked confused

但塔莎看起来并没有生气，她看起来很困惑。

旁白 neutral

" Who's Wyssa? Is she a friend of yours?"

“维萨是谁？是你们的朋友吗？”

旁白 neutral

" Sort of," Perda said." She helped us a few times

“算是吧，”佩达说，“她帮过我们几次。

旁白 neutral

We think she was born in this world."

我们认为她出生在这个世界。”

旁白 neutral

The Roxons traded looks

罗克森一家交换了一下眼色。

旁白 neutral

The older man shrugged." I don't know anybody with that name."

年长的男人耸耸肩：“我从没听说过这个名字的人。”

旁白 neutral

Zann was surprised

赞恩很惊讶。

旁白 neutral

He was certain that this was Wyssa's home world

and that she was well-known.

旁白 neutral

" You've been to Terrica?" Yarb asked Tassa eagerly

“你去过特里卡？”亚布急切地问塔莎。

旁白 neutral

" Yes," Tassa replied." But only a couple of times

since it doesn't have magic.

旁白 neutral

I advised a woman I met there on some basic potions

我在那里给一位女士提供了一些基础药剂方面的建议。

旁白 neutral

I hope she was able to help her people by using them."

我希望她能靠那些药剂帮到她的人民。”

旁白 neutral

" Was her name Zira?" Perda asked

“她是不是叫齐拉？”佩达问道。

旁白 neutral

Tassa nodded

塔莎点了点头。

旁白 neutral

Perda gasped." That's why Zira believed we came

from another world, Zann!

旁白 neutral

She already knew other worlds existed!"

她早就知道有其他世界存在了！”

旁白 neutral

" You're right," Zann said

“没错，”赞恩说。

旁白 neutral

" This also explains how she knew how to make that purple

healing potion she used on your arm," Perda said.

旁白 neutral

" Yes, I left her a supply of oogberry seeds I picked up in Niffia," Tassa said

“是的，我给她留了些我在尼菲亚采的乌格莓种子。”塔莎说。

旁白 neutral

" The berries make any magic stronger."

“这种浆果能让任何魔法变强。”

旁白 neutral

Perda smacked herself in the forehead

佩达一拍自己的脑门。

旁白 neutral

" I knew those berry bushes in her courtyard looked familiar!

“我就说她院子里那些浆果灌木看着眼熟！

旁白 neutral

We saw Wyssa pick oogberries in Niffia, Zann, remember?"

我们在尼菲亚见过维萨采乌格莓，赞恩，记得吗？”

旁白 neutral

Zann nodded." If those berries make magic stronger, it's no

wonder Zira got so good at magic so fast."

旁白 neutral

Perda looked grim." I saw purple marks on some of

her goons too," she said.

旁白 neutral

" This explains why Zira has been letting Vilkor pretend to be leader

“这就解释了为什么齐拉一直让维尔科假装当首领。

旁白 neutral

Those bushes are still growing

那些灌木还在长。

旁白 neutral

She's probably just waiting to gather enough oogberries to

help her take total control over Terrica!"

旁白 neutral

Yarb looked confused." What are you talking about?

Who's taking over Terrica?"

旁白 neutral

" We'll explain in the vortex on the way back there," Perda said

“我们回去的路上在漩涡里解释，”佩达说。

旁白 neutral

" What?" Zann was surprised." I thought we were

going home to Magica!"

旁白 neutral

" Now that we've guessed Zira's plan, we have to

warn Mellis," Perda said.

旁白 neutral

" Those berry bushes are growing fast. There's no time to waste!"

“那些浆果灌木长得很快。没时间浪费了！”

旁白 neutral

Zann imagined how nice it would be to reunite

with his parents, Boz, and Darb.

旁白 neutral

It would be even nicer to hand over all the problems in Terrica

to the adults and let them take care of everything.

旁白 neutral

But he knew Perda was right. They had to help their friend

但他知道佩达是对的。他们得帮助朋友。

旁白 neutral

Perda looked at Yarb." We'll take you back with us," she told him

佩达看向亚布。“我们带你一起回去，”她对他说。

旁白 neutral

" Unless you'd rather stay here where it's safe."

“除非你宁愿留在这个安全的地方。”

旁白 neutral

" Yes, you are welcome to stay," the Roxon man said

“是的，欢迎你留下，”那个罗克森男人说。

旁白 neutral

" Thanks, but I want to go home," Yarb said

“谢谢，但我想回家，”亚布说。

旁白 neutral

" If Terrica is in danger, I want to help save it."

“如果特里卡有危险，我想帮忙拯救它。”

旁白 neutral

" Good," Perda said." We'll tell you about friction on the way

“很好，”佩达说。“路上我们会告诉你关于冲突的事。

旁白 neutral

Then you can share that knowledge with all your friends

然后你可以把这些知识分享给你所有的朋友。

旁白 neutral

The more people who know the truth, the less power Zira will have."

知道真相的人越多，齐拉的力量就越小。”

旁白 neutral

Tassa and the other Roxons looked slightly confused

塔莎和其他罗克森人看起来有点困惑。

旁白 neutral

But Tassa agreed to guide them back to Terrica

但塔莎同意引导他们回特里卡。

旁白 neutral

" I'm the most skilled at navigating the vortex," she said

“我最擅长在漩涡中导航，”她说。

旁白 neutral

Zann peered at her." Are you sure you aren't related

to someone named Wyssa?"

旁白 neutral

Tassa chuckled." I'm sure

塔莎轻声笑了笑。“我确定。

旁白 neutral

But I like the sound of your friend's name. Now let's get going."

不过我喜欢你朋友名字的发音。我们现在出发吧。”
