" Zann! You're safe!" Perda rushed into Venna's hideout with Darb and Teplo behind her

旁白 neutral

" What's going on?" Perda asked." That messenger who came to get us wouldn't tell us anything

珀达问：“怎么回事？来接我们的信使什么都不说，

旁白 neutral

Just that he was taking us to you."

只说是带我们来见你。”

旁白 neutral

" Did you find Gliss?" Darb added

达布又问：“你找到格利斯了吗？”

旁白 neutral

" No," Zann said." I never made it to the zoo."

He quickly told them what had happened

Perda gasped." They want you to be king?" she exclaimed." But you're a kid!"

旁白 neutral

" That's what I said," Zann agreed." But Venna said it didn't matter

“我就是这么说的，”赞恩同意道，“但维娜说那没关系。

旁白 neutral

She said Boz was so popular here that the people would love me

她说博兹在这里很受欢迎，大家会喜欢我的。

旁白 neutral

And she needs someone who's sure to be more popular than Slib."

她需要一个肯定比斯利布更受欢迎的人。”

旁白 neutral

" So Slib really is trying to take over?" said Darb

“那么斯利布真的想夺权吗？”达布说。

旁白 neutral

" That's not all," Zann said." Yog says he's pretty sure Slib sent us that password!"

“不止是这样，”赞恩说，“约格说他很确定是斯利布给我们发了那个密码！”

旁白 neutral

" Why would he do that?" asked Perda

“他为什么要这样做？”珀达问。

旁白 neutral

" So we'd go out and get captured by trolls," Zann replied." Especially me and Gliss

" Kind of like Jev," Darb said

“有点像杰夫，”达布说。

旁白 neutral

" So what did you say?" Perda asked

“那你是怎么说的？”珀达问。

旁白 neutral

" At first I said no way. But now that I've thought about it..." Zann shrugged

“一开始我说绝对不行。但现在想了想……”赞恩耸了耸肩。

旁白 neutral

" Venna's really powerful and smart. I figured we might have a better chance of rescuing Gliss and defeating Morb if we all work together."

“维娜真的很有实力，也很聪明。我觉得如果我们齐心协力，可能更有机会救出格莉丝，打败莫布。”

旁白 neutral

" Did Venna say she'd help find Gliss?" Darb asked

" She promised she'd take care of it as soon as she made things official," Zann said

旁白 neutral

" She's already sent a messenger to her contacts at the palace to tell them I'm ready to become king."

旁白 neutral

He gulped nervously. Was he really ready to be king of Magica?

旁白 neutral

When the kids walked over, Teplo was speaking

当孩子们走过去的时候，特普罗正在说话。

旁白 neutral

"... and I agree that Boz's grandson could rally the citizens," he said

“……我同意博兹的孙子能够把市民们团结起来，”他说。

旁白 neutral

" But at what cost to Zann himself? Surely Morb will be on the lookout for him above all others!"

“但这对赞恩自己来说代价是什么呢？莫布肯定会尤其注意他的行踪！”

旁白 neutral

" That may be," Venna said." But Zann is brave enough to take on the responsibility

“也许吧，”维娜说。“但赞恩足够勇敢来承担这个责任。”

旁白 neutral

We can keep him safe if we work together."

如果我们齐心协力，就能保护他的安全。”

旁白 neutral

" Don't underestimate Morb, Venna," Teplo warned

He turned to Zann." Listen, my boy. Think this scheme over carefully."

他转向赞恩。“听着，孩子。把这个计划仔细想清楚。”

旁白 neutral

" I have," said Zann." Venna says she'll help me rescue Gliss

“我想过了，”赞恩说。“维娜说她会帮我救出格丽丝。

旁白 neutral

Then we can work on finding Boz and the others."

然后我们可以努力找到博兹和其他人。”

旁白 neutral

" That's right, Zann," Venna said smoothly

“没错，赞恩，”维娜顺口说道。

旁白 neutral

Teplo still looked skeptical." How do you propose to do that?" he asked Venna

特普罗仍是一脸怀疑。“你打算怎么做？”他问维娜。

旁白 neutral

One of the other Reds spoke up." This argument is a waste of time

另一个红魔法师开口了。“这样争论是浪费时间。

旁白 neutral

Zann already said yes. And Slib is wasting no time trying to solidify his power

旁白 neutral

We need to show our candidate to the people of Magica as soon as possible."

旁白 neutral

" I agree," Venna said." Sorry, Teplo. I'm afraid you're outvoted."

“我同意，”维娜说。“抱歉，特普罗。恐怕多数人都反对你。”

旁白 neutral

The old man sputtered with indignation. But she ignored him, turning to Zann

老人气得结结巴巴。但她没理会他，转向了赞恩。

旁白 neutral

" It's time to make final preparations. I want to coach you on what to say when you address the public

“该做最后准备了。我要指导你在公开讲话时该说些什么。

旁白 neutral

And of course we'll have to do something about your clothes..."

当然，你的衣服也得打理一下……”

旁白 neutral

Zann nodded, feeling overwhelmed. But he was ready to go along with whatever Venna said so they could move on to finding Gliss and Boz

赞恩点了点头，感到不知所措。但他愿意听从维娜的一切安排，这样他们才能继续去找格莉斯和波兹。

Soon he was surrounded by Venna's assistants

旁白 neutral

Before Zann could look to see who had arrived, he heard a familiar whistle

旁白 neutral

He spun around." Zing!" he cried happily as his dragon flew in just ahead of Fala

他转过身。“小火！”他高兴地喊道，他的小龙赶在法拉前面飞了进来。

旁白 neutral

" Surprise!" Perda exclaimed." We didn't want to tell you in case it didn't work

“给你个惊喜！”珀达喊道。“我们不想告诉你，怕万一不成功。

旁白 neutral

But Teplo thought he could get Zing back."

但特普罗觉得他能把小火弄回来。”

旁白 neutral

Zann gave the dragon a scratch on the head, ignoring the burn of Zing's fiery breath on his face

旁白 neutral

" Good to have you back, little buddy." He looked around, wanting to thank Teplo

They intend to zap them all to Morb's dungeon as soon as they capture one more Red."

We've got to figure out how to rescue Gliss and the others at the zoo — now!"

旁白 neutral

" But — " Zann began

Venna interrupted him." This is not open for debate

维娜打断了他。“这件事没有商量的余地。

旁白 neutral

Then Teplo spoke up." Well, Zann," he said quietly," it seems you have a decision to make."

这时特普罗开口了。“那么，赞恩，”他轻声说，“看来你得做个决定了。”
