Chapter 14

Chapter 14 A Hint of Things to Come! Because in Minecraft, We Never Stop Building. Ash blinked furiously. The light had blinded her, but only for a moment. As her vision returned to her, she realized she was no longer in Minecraft. She was back in the Woodsword cafetorium, surrounded by students and scouts, all of them removing their headsets and rubbing their eyes. "Oh," said Ash, and she realized her own headset was blinking red. She didn't know much about electronics, but blinking red lights were usually not good. And Theo's computer was smoking and shooting out sparks.

第十四章未来的预兆！因为在《我的世界》中，我们从未停止建设。 阿什愤怒地眨着眼睛。光线使她睁不开眼睛，但只是一瞬间。 当她的视力恢复时，她意识到自己已经不在《我的世界》里了。 她回到了木剑食堂，周围都是学生和童子军，他们都摘下了耳机，揉着眼睛。 “哦，”阿什说，她意识到自己的耳机在闪烁红色。 她不太懂电子学，但闪烁的红灯通常不太好。 西奥的电脑冒着烟，冒着火花。

"I'm on it, kids!" said Hope. "Nobody panic!" As Ash watched, Po's cousin doused the computer with a fire extinguisher. That took care of the fire hazard. But Ash figured the computer was ruined for good. Theo didn't seem worried. "Did we do it?" he asked. "Did we succeed?" "I don't know what just happened," said Shelly. "But it was awesome." "Right?" said Po. "Nice job, prez!" Morgan turned to Harper. "Why did we get booted from the game?" he asked.

“我来了，孩子们！”喜旺说。 “没有人慌!”在阿什的注视下，阿宝的表弟用灭火器浇灭了电脑。 解决了火灾隐患。 但阿什认为电脑永远毁了。 西奥似乎并不担心。“我们成功了吗？”他问。 “我们成功了吗？”“我不知道刚刚发生了什么，”雪莉说。 “但那真的很棒。”“对吧？”阿宝说。 “干得好，总统！”摩根转向哈珀。 “为什么我们会被踢出游戏？”他问道。

Harper held a magnifying glass to the circuit board she'd welded to her sunglasses. "The whole network was overloaded. It burned out." She put the glasses back on her face. "These are nothing more than shades now." "I think my headset is broken, too," said Ash. "That might have been our last hurrah." "But did we fix the game in time?" Jodi asked. "Did we save the Evoker King? Did we fix Minecraft?" "It looked like it," said Theo. "But we can't know for sure until we get access to the library's computer." "That might take a few days," said Ash. "We still have a lot of work to do at the library." "Then we'll have to wait," said Morgan. He watched as the kids around them all discussed their adventure excitedly. They

哈珀拿着放大镜对着她焊接在太阳镜上的电路板。 “整个网络都超载了。 它烧光了。”她把眼镜戴回到脸上。 “现在这些只不过是阴影。” “我想我的耳机也坏了，”阿什说。 “那可能是我们最后一次欢呼了。” “但我们是否及时修复了游戏？”乔迪•问道。 “我们救了唤醒王吗？” 我们修复《Minecraft》了吗？”“看起来是这样。”西奥说。 “但在我们进入图书馆的电脑之前，我们无法确定。” “那可能要花几天时间。”阿什说。 “我们在图书馆还有很多工作要做。” “那我们只好等了。”摩根说。 他看着周围的孩子们兴奋地讨论着他们的冒险经历。 他们

didn't seem to mind that it had been cut short. "And we just have to trust that we did everything we could," he added. The very next morning, Morgan was right back in the cafetorium. The school staff had pulled out the bleacher seats, and several teachers and administrators were on the stage. Mr. Mallory was there, too. "Does this have something to do with the library?" Morgan asked his friends. Theo shrugged. Po yawned. And Harper said, "Shhh! The assembly is starting." Ms. Minerva welcomed them all, and she reminded everyone about the flood at the library and the smashed school lab. (As if anyone could forget.)

似乎并不介意它被剪短了。 “我们只需要相信，我们已经竭尽所能，”他补充说。 就在第二天早上，摩根又回到了食堂。 学校的工作人员把看台上的座位挪了出来，几位老师和管理人员站在舞台上。 马洛里先生也在那里。 “这和图书馆有关吗？”摩根问他的朋友们。 西奥耸耸肩。阿宝打了个哈欠。哈珀说：“嘘！集会开始了。” 密涅瓦女士对大家表示欢迎，并提醒大家图书馆淹水和学校实验室被毁的事情。 （好像有人会忘记似的。）

Morgan's mind began to wander. And then he thought he heard his teacher say "iron sword." "What was that?" he said, a little too loudly. Jodi chuckled. Ms. Minerva clucked her tongue. "As I was saying, the storm system has passed. But the damage done to the school and library was more extensive than we hoped. It will take some time to make repairs, and we have no choice but to close an entire wing of the school."

摩根开始走神了。 然后他好像听到老师说“铁剑”。 “那是什么？”他说，声音有点太大了。 乔迪•咯咯地笑了。密涅瓦咯咯地咂舌。 “正如我所说，风暴系统已经过去。 但是对学校和图书馆造成的破坏比我们想象的要大。 修复需要一些时间，我们别无选择，只能关闭学校的整个侧翼。”

"School's canceled?!" asked Po. Ms. Minerva crossed her arms. "Absolutely not." Doc leaned over and took the microphone from Ms. Minerva. "What my verbose colleague is trying to say is this: To avoid overcrowding our classrooms, some Woodsword students will be attending another local school for the rest of the school year. And they'll be joined by a few familiar teachers."

“学校停课了？！”阿宝问。 密涅瓦交叉着双臂。 “绝对不会。”医生俯下身，从史密斯女士手中接过麦克风。 密涅瓦。“我那位啰嗦的同事想说的是：为了避免我们的教室过于拥挤，一些Woodsword的学生将在本学年剩下的时间里去另一所当地的学校。 还有几位熟悉的老师也会来。”
