☆、第6章 美男对手

Chapter 6: Pretty Boy Opponent

“绩点”事件在几分钟后，被维克多自己察觉到了真相。

A few minutes after the “grade point” event, Tyler found out by himself what it meant.

维克多同学夺路而逃，一路贴着墙角走，并低头寻找适合自己往下钻的地缝。

Student Victor had taken the chance to run away. He stuck to the wall the entire time with his head lowered, looking for a hole big enough for him to bury himself into.

最后他逃回家，被室友们闻讯包围，并强行抢劫走了他偷偷拍的泰伦的照片。

In the end, he had escaped home and was surrounded by his roommate who heard about the news and forcefully robbed him of the photograph he had sneakily taken of Tyler.

真的是偷拍，照片上只捕捉到泰伦的侧脸，正微微低头检阅着书架底层，专注的双眼显得格外深邃。

He really had taken it sneakily, because the photograph was of the side of his face while he was looking down at the bottom rows of the bookshelf, the concentration in his clear to see.

室友摸了摸下巴：“哎？没眼镜挡着才发现，这眼睛颜色真少见，哪儿的血统？”

His roommate rubbed his chin thoughtfully, “Eh? I can see now that without his glasses, his eye color is really rare. What bloodline is he?”

“应该不是联盟血统。”维克多跟他并肩坐着看照片，说道，“联盟的星系没有金色眼睛的血统，要么是移民，要么是眼部性状变异或疾病……”

“It should not be a lineage from Union.” Victor looked at the picture with him and said, “The Union Galaxy doesn’t have any bloodlines with golden eyes. He’s either an immigrant or has some king of eye-type mutation or disease…”

“这么说四爷也是移民或者变异？”室友若有所思道。

“So, this means Lord Fourth is an immigrant or a mutation?” His roommate thoughtfully asked.

维克多茫然道：“四爷是谁？”

Victory stared blankly at him, “Who’s Lord Fourth?”

损友摆手道：“你这个不看电竞比赛的人，不需要知道四爷。来来，咱们继续八卦一下你男神。”

His friend waved a hand at him, “You people who don’t watch e-sport competitions don’t need to know Lord Fourth. Come here, let’s keep gossiping about your prince charming.”

……

“四爷”不但不是联盟的血统，甚至还不是他们这个宇宙的血统呢。

“Lord Fourth” was not only not of a lineage from Union, he wasn’t even from a lineage of this universe.

前面说过，泰伦·奥丁继承的是精灵和魅魔的混血。

It was spoken before that Tyler Odin was a hybrid that inherited the bloodline of Elves and Incubus.

这两个种族混血的比率，要形容一下的话，差不多就是火星撞月球的概率。其原因，大概是因为精灵、魅魔双方互相轻视和厌恶。

The chances of a hybrid born from these races, if an example must be used, then it is about the same level as Mars hitting the moon. The cause is roughly because Elves and Incubus/Succubus despise and loathe each other.

魅魔、精灵，这两个种族最大的共同点是：颜值极高，常常能突破天际。

The only common area between these two species was: High attractiveness, often very strong.

他们的最大区别是：精灵异常忠贞，一生只会选择一个伴侣；魅魔异常淫乱，通过诱惑受害者然后吸取精气为生。

Their biggest difference was: Elves were exceptionally loyal, they will only choose one partner for the rest of their lives. Incubus/Succubus were exceptionally promiscuous, they will attract victims and absorb their life essence to survive.

一个是清纯不做作的白莲花，一个是妖艳贱货狐狸精。

One is a fresh and pure loyal white lotus, while the other is a seductive slutty fox spirit.

可想而知，这样的双方就算有一时的爱恋，结合成的家庭最后也必定不会完满。因此万一生下来混血儿，也不会有幸福的童年——说的就是泰伦他爹。

As one can well imagine, even if there was a period of love between these two races, the family that was later made was bound to be unsuccessful. As such, the hybrid child will not obtain a happy childhood—and Tyler’s father is one such case.

泰伦他爹就是那个“万一”出来的混血儿。阴险狡狯的男魅魔，和大名鼎鼎的月精灵公主结合——生下的孩子继承的却是父系性格，一向花名在外，满世界地浪迹，把泰伦他妈（一个可怜的半精灵女子）活生生抑郁死了。

Tyler’s father is one of the “unlikely” hybrids. A sinister and sly Incubus had gotten together with a renowned Moon Elf Princess—the child she had given birth to nevertheless inherited his paternal family’s disposition. He always played around outside, roaming everywhere he pleased and depressed Tyler’s mom (a pitiful half-elf woman) to death.

泰伦小时候就有点叛逆，看不起自己父亲这种不负责任的做法；但他也对母亲恨铁不成钢，认为一个人只靠爱情活着的话，人生格局也太小了。

Tyler has always been a bit of a rebel since young, he looked down on his unresponsible father for his way of handling things. But he also felt resentment toward his mother for not learning her lesson, she believed that she can live purely on love, her worldview was just far too narrow.

他从小感到白莲花是可悲的，妖艳贱货就更是可恨的了。

He thought since young that white lotuses were pitiful, while the seductive sluts were even more hateful.

之后自力更生、努力活下来了的小泰伦，就对自己极其罕有的混血身份嗤之以鼻，甚至也不太满意自己的瞳色。

Afterward, Tyler was self-reliant and managed to survive on his through great effort. Toward his own extremely rare hybrid identity, he was disdain of it, he wasn’t very happy with his eye color either.

他不喜欢有人不停盯着他的种族特征看。

He did not like people staring at his racial characteristic.

于是泰伦经常戴着兜帽和面罩。

As such, Tyler often wore a hood and mask.

不仅仅是遮住裴戎的容貌，更多是一种“保持不引人注目”的习惯。

Not only was he covering Pei Rong’s appearance, it was more of a habit of “not attracting attention”.

观众们仅能看见他的一双金色眼睛，这双眼睛在非战斗的状况下常常显得很慵懒很从容。

The audience can only see his golden eyes; these eyes often times were very lazy and calm when not in battle.

泰伦的姿势也很随意，他此刻站在台上，对面是十六进八的半决赛的对手——一名巡游者。

Tyler’s posture was also very casual. As he stood on stage, the one across from him was one of the other semifinal players—A Cruiser.

主持人刚才下台，从现在半决赛开始，解说的都是一男一女的固定搭档。

The hosts had just gotten off the stage. Now that it was the semifinals, the hosts were always a man-woman pair.

这时，男解说开麦道：“观众朋友们好，我是老艺。”

At this time, the male host started the show off, “Hello my audience friends, I am Old Yi.”

女解说：“我是小琵。”

The female host followed him up, “I am Little Pi.”

男解说：“欢迎来到甲联的十六进八半决赛现场，这里是半决赛第二场，419号选手对战‘花吹花’选手。”

Male host: “Welcome to the League’s top eight semifinals event, this is the second match of the semifinals. Player 419 will battle against Player ‘Flower Boasting Flower’.

女解说：“现在两位选手都站在场上，我们可以看到双方都在严阵以待、准备作战，让镜头拉近一点……哇。”

Female host: “The two players are both standing on the arena right now, we can see that they are both calmly waiting and prepared for battle. Let’s have our cameras zoom in a bit… Wow.”

随着她这一声的惊叹声，大屏幕上分别放大的两个镜头引起了观众们一阵尖叫。

With her exclamation, the enlarged scene on the screen also gave rise to the audience’s shrieks.

泰伦的眼睛和气质一向是他们讨论“四爷”的热点，这先不说；他对面的“花吹花”也是个很著名的美男，金色卷发绑在脑后，脸上戴着一张银色舞会面具，紧身皮甲搭配披衣勾勒出精瘦的身材。

Tyler’s eyes and aura were always the hot topic of their ‘Lord Fourth’s’ discussion, but beyond that, the ‘Flower Boasting Flower’ was also a famous pretty boy. He had curly golden hair tied up behind his head, a silver ball mask on his face and skintight leather armor that in showed his slender stature over his clothes.

男解说：“两位选手果然名不虚传，都是颜值极高的人气型选手啊。”

Male host: “Our two players really live up to their reputation, they are the highly attractive popular type of players.”

女解说：“都是形象好气质佳，一米八大长腿，也都是死活不给看脸……”

Female host: “They are both good looking with formidable auras, tall with long legs and refuses to show their faces no matter what…”

男解说：“论颜值我们暂时评价不出，但是双方的实力究竟如何，很快就能揭晓了。”

Male host: “We cannot evaluate their attractiveness right now, but just how strong these two players are will quickly be determined.”

倒计时开始了，在开始前，解说有责任源源不断地介绍双方背景。

The countdown started, before the match starts, the hosts are responsible for introducing the player’s background in a smooth manner.

然而他们正在开玩笑地预测双方选手胜负的时候，观众席上正在此起彼伏地发出尖叫声，一些女观众堪称歇斯底里。

However, while they were still making jokes and predicting who would win, shrieks came from the audience. Some ladies were almost hysterical.

这是因为台上的动作比解说要吸引人多了。

It was because the events on the stage were much more interesting than the hosts.

泰伦对面那位美男，“花吹花”先生刚才一撩披风，帅气潇洒地从台上一跃而下，再抬起头时，嘴中含了一支红玫瑰。

The pretty boy on the opposite side of Tyler, Mr. ‘Flower Boasting Flower’ had just raised his cloak and jumped down from the stage elegantly. When he raised his head again, a red rose was held in his mouth.

观众：“……啊啊啊啊啊！”

Audience: “…AHHHHHHHH!”

泰伦：冷漠.jpg

Tyler: Indifference.jpg

花吹花轻轻抬起手，摘下红玫瑰，优雅地一吹，鲜红的花瓣忽然纷纷扬扬，化为无数碎片飘向场外。

Flower Boasting Flower softly raised his hand, took the red rose and gracefully blew it. The scarlet petals suddenly fluttered about, turning into countless pieces that floated outside the arena.

观众：“啊啊啊啊啊！”

Audience: “AHHHHHHHHHHH!”

泰伦：冷漠.gif

Tyler: Indifference.gif

倒计时十秒钟。

The countdown was at ten seconds.

泰伦的对手还在强行给自己加戏。

Yet his opponent was still putting on a show.

花吹花优雅地向着对手欠了欠身，抽出腰畔的短剑：“我的剑由莫诺托夫大师打造，名为天琴座。”挽了个剑花后收入剑鞘，又取下背后长弓，“我的弓来自水妖精王庭，名为蛇夫座。——请多指教了。”

Flower Boasting Flower gracefully made a polite bow at Tyler, then took out the dagger on his waist, “My short sword was created by Master Monotov, and its name is Lyra.” After he was done with the introduction of that blade, he sheathed it and took out another longbow, “My bow is from the Evil Spirit King Court, its name is Ophiuchus—Please take care of me.”

某些粉丝型的观众立刻激动呐喊：“嗷嗷嗷！帅帅帅美美美！”

Some fan-like audience immediately shouted emotionally, “OHHHHHHH! Hot hot hot beautiful beautiful beautiful!”

泰伦双手抱臂，表示毫无兴趣地说：“哦。”

Tyler crossed his arms and said a single word full of disinterest, “Oh.”

观众立刻反水：“呀啊啊四爷好酷啊啊啊！”

The audience immediately flipped over to him, “YAAAAAHHH Lord Fourth is so cool!”

经过这个月，泰伦已经充分了解到“这个年代的观众大体上都没什么节操”这件事了，无动于衷地拔出了自己的短刀和匕首，淡淡道：“凯歌、岑寂。”

After this month, Tyler had already obtained plenty of understanding that “this age of audience all lack integrity”. He remained aloof to their screams and pulled out his short sword and dagger, indifferently introducing them, “Paean, Silence.”

尽管只是回应对手，这也是他第一次在战斗之外露出作战姿态，让观众终于能够一窥静态的姿势。

Even if he was just responding to his opponent, this was also the first time he had revealed a combat-ready attitude in a fight, allowing the audience to finally be able to see his ready posture.

他向来右手正手持剑，左手反手执匕。

He had always held the sword in his right hand in a normal grip while holding the dagger in a reverse grip in his left hand.

因为他的右手更灵活，能够胜任短剑更丰富的挑、刺、抹、斩等动作；左手则更迅捷有力，更适合反手拿匕首时的刺动作。（一般情况下，匕首是只用来刺的。）

Because his right hand was more agile, it allowed him to use the short sword to its full potential of attacking, stabbing, swiping and beheading people. His left hand was even more nimble and powerful and was more fit for doing actions that needed a reverse hold dagger. (Under normal circumstances, the dagger is only used to stab.)

进入战斗状态时，他的眼神突地一变，紧紧地锁定了自己的猎物。

Once he entered a combat state, his eyes would change and tightly lock onto its prey.

倒计时结束，比赛开始。

The countdown ended and the match officially started.

所有场外声音都对参赛选手屏蔽了，他们立刻进入战斗模式。

All sounds outside of the arena were blocked and they immediately fell into combat mode.

第一秒男解说就喊了起来：“爆发冲突了！一开始就激烈冲突了！花吹花后跳脱离站圈——空中射击！是空中射击天赋！”

The male host had started to shout in the first second, “An explosive charge! He’s made for a mad push right from the start! Flower Boasting Flower jumped back to distance himself from the ocnflict—Air Shot! It’s the Air Shot talent!”

甫一交手，两人就对换了一个的常规技能：泰伦的反手突袭对花吹花造成了伤害，花吹花的第一支箭却无功而返。

They had barely fought and the two of them both used a common skill. Tyler’s reverse grip surprise attack injured Flower Boasting Flower while his arrow did not hit.

紧接着，花吹花立刻凌空向后飞起，披风像羽翼一样展开，整个人在半空中拉开华美的长弓。

Following that, Flower Boasting Flower leaped backward into the sky, his cloak unfolding like wings, getting into a magnificent midair shooting posture.

弓弦轻响的同时，他所瞄准的泰伦原地一顿，倏然间消失。

The same moment the bowstring gently echoed, the target he was aiming at, Tyler, had paused then suddenly disappeared.

“419号发动了潜行，这是他在一对一擂台上首次使用潜行技能！他在等花吹花落地后突袭吗？花吹花的滞空时间是……4.7秒，他落地了。出乎意料，他并没有选择占领高地！——419也没有选择在此时突袭！”

“Player 419 has used Stealth, this is the first time he has used the Stealth skill in a match! Is he waiting for Flower Boasting Flower to land then hit him with a surprise attack? Flower Boasting Flower’s airtime is… 4.7 seconds, he has landed. Unexpectedly, he did not choose to take a high spot! —419 also did not choose to launch a surprise attack!”

花吹花轻轻落在平地上，闭上双眼，而后露出仔细倾听的表情。在他额头上，隐隐闪烁出一只眼睛符号。

Flower Boasting Flower softly landed on the ground and closed his eyes, making a carefully listening face. On his forehead was a faintly flickering eye symbol.

“心眼术！弓手系职业的标准勘测隐形技能。花吹花选手是否能在419号发动突袭之前，看破他的隐身？”

“Spirit Heart Magic! The ranger class’ standard invisibility searcher skill. Can player Flower Boasting Flower find Player 419 before his surprise attack and see through his stealth?”

场地中一片寂静，唯有微风在轻轻拂动。

The map was entirely silent with only a gentle breeze moving through.

花吹花一手把弓，一手捉着三支羽箭，轻轻搭在弓弦上。

Flower Boasting Flower held his bow in one hand while the other clutched three feathered arrows, gently stringing them into the bow.

陡然间，女解说喊道：“是空中突袭！”

Suddenly, the female host shouted, “It’s a surprise attack from the air!”

泰伦的身影忽然在半空中闪现而出，他手中短匕好似尖锐的獠牙，猛然向着猎物下落。

Tyler’s figure suddenly appeared from midair. The short sword in his hand was like a sharp fang that bit down at where its prey lied.

花吹花急促转身，长弓抵在锋刃尖端，右手一个灵活至极的反转，就反握住羽箭向着泰伦扎去。

Flower Boasting Flower hurriedly turned around, his longbow blocking the point of the sharp blade. His right hand nimbly reversed and gripped the feathered arrows to be aimed at Tyler and he shot.

泰伦一个矮身，忽然从花吹花面前消失——

Tyler lowered his body and disappeared from in front of his again—

是一个快捷无比的收身旋转，如同演练过的贴面舞一般，在瞬息间转到了花吹花的身侧。

It was an incomparably fast spin of his entire body, like a dancer that had practiced spinning numerous times, he dodged past Flower Boasting Flower in a flash.

匕首的寒光几乎再次贴到了花吹花的脖颈上。

The cold light of the dagger was almost once again stuck neck to Flower Boasting Flower’s neck.

下一刻，花吹花的长弓在地上一点，刚刚好能够借力打出一个鞭腿。

In the next moment, Flower Boasting Flower’s longbow touched the ground and he used it as a prop to lash out in a Whip Kick.

“击退！419被花吹花的鞭腿技能击退了大约五码距离！突袭未能成功！现在主动权回到了花吹花手中。”

“Beaten back! 419 has been beaten back by Flower Boasting Flower’s Whip Leg Skill by approximately five yards! His surprise attack did not succeed! Now the upper hand has returned to Flower Boasting Flower.”

“等一等！”女解说道，“突袭是成功的！”

“Wait a moment!” The host interrupted, “The surprise attack was successful.”

两人的近身对决一闪而逝，这时双双分开，泰伦再次神鬼莫测地消失在虚拟环境当中。

The confrontation between the two happened in a flash and the two separated. Tyler once more disappeared in the virtual environment like a ghost.

花吹花垂下手，这时观众才看清，他的左手内侧被划开了一道狭长的血口，令他不受控制地发颤。

Flower Boasting Flower’s hand was hanging down and the audience could now clearly see that the palm of his left hand carried a long and thin injury, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.

女解说：“是刚才旋转的一瞬间，别忘了419选手还有一把短剑！”

Female Host: “It was in that moment he spun, don’t forget that Player 419 still has a dagger in hand!”

男解说：“刚才那一波绝对是精彩锦集级别的精湛操作！现在花吹花选手落入了极度不利的情势，作为一个弓手系职业的巡游者，左手受伤后，他能否翻盘？”

Male Host: “That short conflict was truly exciting and filled with skillful maneuvers! Now Player Flower Boasting Flower has fallen into an unfavorable situation, as a ranger that specializes in bows and with an injured left hand, can he make a comeback?”

场地再次陷入了静寂，平坦的草地正中央站着花吹花。

The arena once again fell silent, in the middle of the smooth meadow was Flower Boasting Flower.

严格来说这个随机抽取出来的场地对弓箭手更为友好，对刺客来说，却缺乏供他隐蔽的地点。

Strictly speaking, this randomly drawn map gave archers a better advantage, for an assassin, it lacked proper hiding places.

但是花吹花赫然发现，他竟然就算开了侦测技能都无法发现泰伦的身影：他在巨岩的阴影里？还是某片起伏的杂草里？还是已经在更远的灌木当中？

But Flower Boasting Flower discovered with astonishment that even though he used a detection skill, he was still unable to find Tyler’s figure. Was he in the shadow of the large cliff? Or was he moving in the weeds? Or maybe he was in the even farther bushes?
