7. The Powers of Sparr

CHAPTER Seven The Powers of Spar "That's it, we're doomed for sure!" Max chittered, scurrying behind his friends. Then the Ninn smiled. And his fat red face began to change. It went pale, and a long white beard grew from his chin. His warrior's armor shriveled away and became a long blue robe. "Galen!" Keeah said. "How did you get here?" The wizard motioned them into the shadows as he spoke. "The cave I saw was an old entrance to Goll. To avoid being captured, I pretended to be a Ninn. My friends, it's worse than we thought. Sparr wants to raise Zor for one reason only."

第七章斯帕尔的力量“对了，我们一定要完蛋了！”马克斯叽叽喳喳地说着，急忙跑到他的朋友们后面。 小精灵笑了。他那张又胖又红的脸开始变了。 脸色变得苍白，下巴上长出了长长的白胡子。 他的武士盔甲枯萎了，变成了一件长长的蓝色长袍。 “盖伦!”Keeah说。“你怎么到这儿来的？”巫师一边说，一边示意他们躲进阴影里。 “我看到的洞穴是通往戈尔的一个古老的入口。 为了避免被抓，我假扮成一个奶妈。 朋友们，情况比我们想象的还要糟糕。 斯帕尔想养佐尔只有一个原因。”

Keeah trembled. "What reason?" "Ages ago, Zor came under the power of something called the Golden Wasp," Galen said. "Only the giant knows where it lies hidden." "The Golden Wasp!" the princess exclaimed. "One of Sparr's Three Powers!" Eric, Neal, and Julie shared a look. They all remembered the first time Galen told them about Sparr's Three Powers. They were magical objects the sorcerer created so that he could take over Droon. When Galen found out, he put a spell over them to change their shape. Now they were hidden; no one knew where. The First Power was a jewel called the Red Eye of Dawn. It controlled the forces of nature. "What does this Wasp thing do?" Neal asked. "The Wasp is even more dangerous than the Eye of Dawn," Galen told them. "It controls the minds and thoughts of others." Neal snorted. "Ha! It won't control my mind." "Right," said Eric. "Only pizza does that. And ice cream. And peanut butter. Also nachos." Neal frowned. "You're making me hungry." Julie turned to Galen. "What can we do?"

Keeah颤抖。“什么原因?”“很久以前，佐尔受到一种叫金黄蜂的东西的控制，”盖伦说。 “只有巨人知道它藏在哪里。” “金黄蜂号！”公主叫道。 “斯帕尔的三种力量之一！”埃里克、尼尔和朱莉一起看了一眼。 他们都记得盖伦第一次告诉他们斯帕尔的三种力量。 它们是巫师创造的魔法物品，这样他就可以控制德鲁恩了。 盖伦发现后，对他们施了咒语，改变了他们的形状。 现在他们藏起来了；没人知道在哪里。 第一力量是一颗宝石，叫做黎明的红眼。 它控制着自然的力量。 “这个黄蜂是做什么的？”Neal问道。 “黄蜂号甚至比黎明之眼更危险，”盖伦告诉他们。 “它控制着他人的思想和思想。” Neal哼了一声。“哈!它控制不了我的思想。” “对，”埃里克说。只有披萨能做到这一点。 还有冰淇淋。还有花生酱。 也烤干酪辣味玉米片。”Neal皱起了眉头。 “你让我饿了。” 朱莉转向盖伦。“我们能做什么？”

But the wizard didn't answer. His eyes were filled with fear. "Look now!" he said. Sparr stood over the giant's body. "By the stars of Droon, rise, O ancient Zor! Rise!" The ground began to rumble and quake. Then, all at once, the giant's huge arms burst up from the ground, sending rocks flying everywhere. His legs kicked suddenly, shattering the earth. Then Zor lifted himself out of his tomb. He struggled to his feet. His tremendous shadow fell over the valley. "Uh-oh," said Julie. "We have a problem." "A big problem," Max chirped. The dark eyes of the giant stared at the sorcerer beneath him. A simple lift of his foot would crush Lord Sparr in an instant. But Zor did not crush him. He knelt before Sparr and bowed his head to him.

但是巫师没有回答。 他的眼里充满了恐惧。 “瞧！”他说。斯帕站在巨人的尸体旁。 “古老的佐尔啊，以天上的星辰起誓，起来吧！”崛起!”地面开始轰隆隆地震动起来。 然后，巨人的巨臂突然从地上伸出来，石头飞得到处都是。 他的腿突然踢了起来，把大地震得粉碎。 于是琐尔从坟墓里爬起来。 他挣扎着站了起来。他巨大的影子落在山谷上。 “哦哦，”朱莉说。“我们有麻烦了。” “一个大问题。”马克斯唧唧喳喳地说。 巨人的黑眼睛盯着身下的巫师。 只要一抬他的脚，斯帕尔勋爵就会立刻被压碎。 琐珥却没有击杀他。 他跪在斯帕尔面前，向他低下头。

"Master!" the giant boomed. "What would you have me do?" "Holy cow!" Eric whispered. "How are we going to stop that thing?" "We can't!" Max chittered. "We're doomed!" Sparr's face twisted into an evil grin. "Zor, I command you to find the Golden Wasp!" Zor turned his head and stared at the sun. His dark eyes took on a fiery glow. "With the Wasp, I, Lord Sparr, shall conquer all of Droon!" the sorcerer shouted. "Then I shall rise to the Upper World and conquer it, too!" The Upper World! Eric thought. My world. Sparr thrust his hand into the air. "Go, my giant! Find the Wasp!" The giant swiveled his enormous body. Thoom! He took a step. Thoom! Another step. "Go!" Sparr cried out. "Let nothing stop you!" Eric couldn't take any more. He jumped out of the shadows and shook his fist at Zor. "Nothing but us!" he cried. "We'll stop you!" Thooom… The giant stopped. He turned his enormous bronze face. He lowered his eyes at Eric and his friends.

“主人！” “你要我做什么？”“圣牛!”Eric低声说。 “我们怎么才能阻止那东西？”“我们不能!”马克斯啾啾而鸣。 “我们注定是要失败的!”斯帕的脸扭曲成一个邪恶的笑容。 “佐尔，我命令你去找金黄蜂号！”佐尔转过头，盯着太阳。 他的黑眼睛闪着炽热的光芒。 “有了黄蜂，我，斯帕尔大人，将征服整个德鲁恩！” “然后我也要升到上层世界去征服它！”上层世界！埃里克的想法。 我的世界。斯帕尔把手伸到空中。 “走吧，我的巨人！”找到黄蜂号！”巨人转动着他巨大的身躯。 Thoom !他走了一步。Thoom !另一个步骤。 “走吧!”斯帕尔喊道。“什么都不能阻止你！”埃里克再也受不了了。 他从阴影中跳出来，对着佐尔挥舞着拳头。 “只有我们！”他叫道。 “我们会阻止你的！”巨人停了下来。 他转过硕大的青铜脸。 他垂下眼睛看着埃里克和他的朋友们。

"Um," Eric mumbled. "Did I really say that?" "I think you did," Neal answered. Sparr whirled around and pointed toward the children. "Zor! Destroy them!" "Watch out, here he comes!" Batamogi yelled. An enormous foot slammed to earth near the kids. Thoom! Sparr began to laugh wildly. "Yes! Yes! Destroy them, once and for all!" The giant's other foot lifted up over the kids. Its huge shadow fell over them. "Run!" cried Batamogi at the top of his lungs.

“嗯，”埃里克咕哝着。“我真的这么说过吗？”“我想你说过，”尼尔回答。 斯帕尔转过身来，指着孩子们。 “佐尔!摧毁他们!”“小心，他来了！”Batamogi喊道。 一只巨大的脚重重地落在孩子们附近的地上。 Thoom !斯帕尔开始狂笑起来。 “是啊!是的!彻底摧毁他们！”巨人的另一只脚从孩子们身上抬起。 它巨大的影子落在他们身上。 “快跑！”巴塔木扯着嗓子叫道。
