13 Yikes

13. YIKES The drill whirred furiously, and the three young Vikings were showered with splinters of wood as they all three hung on to the door. The Driller-Dragon heaved back his mighty head and the door was ripped out of the Vikings' hands, and swung wide open again. 'Now, now!' sang the Stormfly. 'No rough stuff!' The Driller-Dragon gave a roar of savage triumph and sprang forward, jaws agape. And Hiccup picked a frozen Poisonous Piffleworm off the top of the tunnel, and threw it in the Driller-Dragon's face. One second the dragon was this magnificent pouncing carnivore. The next he was a mewling baby, gibbering with fear. The Poisonous Piffleworm fell to the floor like a dragon made out of stone. But still, all four of the Driller-Dragons reared up on to their hind legs in horror, and turned around squealing, fighting to be the first to get out of the room.

13. 电钻猛烈地旋转着，三个年轻的维京人紧紧抓住门，木屑像雨点一样落在他们身上。 钻龙昂起他那巨大的脑袋，门从维京人手中被扯了下来，又大开了。 “现在,现在!风暴蝇唱道。 “不要粗鲁的东西！”钻龙发出一声野蛮的胜利吼声，跳上前去，张着嘴。 小嗝嗝从地道顶上捡起一条冻僵了的毒飞蛾，扔在钻龙的脸上。 前一秒，龙还是凶猛的食肉动物。 下一秒他就变成了一个啼哭的婴儿，害怕得说不出话来。 那只毒虫像一条石头做的龙一样掉在地上。 但四只钻龙还是吓得后腿直立起来，转过身来尖叫着，争着第一个离开房间。

Fishlegs slammed the bookshelf door. They knelt on all fours, surrounded by an entire nest of unimaginably venomous frozen Piffleworms, the tunnel echoing with their pants of relief. Hiccup shuffled on his knees to the end of the tunnel. They weren't as high up as they had been when the Stealth Dragon had dropped them off, but it was nonetheless a very long, long, way down, and Hiccup tried not to look. He leaned out and called as loudly as he dared for the Stealth Dragon. 'Please, please let the Stealth Dragon hear us,' he prayed to Thor as he called. Thor must have been listening–it has to be said, Thor has been very good to Hiccup over the years–for one second there was just bright blue sky in front of them, the next the sky had darkened slightly, in the ghostly form of the Secret Weapon. 'Ready to go, Sir?' asked the Stealth Dragon politely, hovering next to their tunnel. 'Well hello…' smirked the Stormfly, batting her eyelashes. 'Where did YOU spring from, gorgeous?' Toothless swelled up with furious jealousy. 'Snot gorgeous! Is a g-g-great big invisible goody-goody!'

鱼腿砰的一声关上了书架的门。 他们四肢着地跪在地上，周围是一窝毒得难以想象的冻僵的小精灵，隧道里回荡着他们松了一口气的声音。 小嗝嗝跪着拖着脚走到隧道的尽头。 他们已经不像隐形龙把他们放下来时那么高了，但那仍然是一条非常非常长的路，小嗝嗝尽量不去看。 他探出身子，尽他最大的勇气大声呼唤那只隐形龙。 “求求你，求求你，让隐形龙听到我们吧。”他一边呼唤托尔，一边向他祈祷。 托尔一定是在听着——不得不说，这些年来托尔对小嗝嗝一直很好——前一秒他们面前还是湛蓝的天空，下一秒天空就变暗了，就像神秘武器的幽灵一样。 “准备走了吗，先生？”隐形龙在他们的隧道旁边盘旋，礼貌地问。 “好吧，你好……”暴风蝇得意地笑着，眨眨眼睛。 “你是从哪儿冒出来的，美人？”无牙怒火中烧。 “鼻涕华丽!是一个大大的、大大的、看不见的假正经！”

Fishlegs was delighted to make the dangerous crawl along the Stealth Dragon's outstretched hovering wing, so deeply relieved was he to get out of that Library. 'Where to, Sir?' asked the Stealth Dragon, when all three of them had fastened their seatbelts. 'Next stop the ISLE OF BERK,' said Hiccup. The Stealth Dragon wheeled around on his albatross wings, and for the first time Hiccup realised that there was a most unpleasant smell of rotten eggs in the air, and they were not alone in the Archipelago skies. The air was full of dragons, dragons as far as the eye could see. An entire Dragon Army was descending on the little Isle of Forget Me. These were large riding-dragons, but in this case, because this was an attack operation, they weren't being RIDDEN exactly. Each dragon had a heavily armed Viking Warrior dangling from his claws. The Warriors had their swords drawn, and they were screaming the Murderous War Cry at the tops of their lungs. The Murderous Tribe was storming the Meathead Public Library. It was rather beautiful to watch the precision

鱼腿很高兴沿着隐形龙张开的盘旋翅膀进行危险的爬行，离开图书馆让他如释重负。 “去哪儿，先生？”当他们三个人都系好安全带后，隐形龙问道。 “下一站到伯克岛，”希卡普说。 隐形龙用信天翁的翅膀转过身来，嗝嗝第一次意识到空气中弥漫着一股非常难闻的臭鸡蛋味，而他们在群岛的天空中并不孤单。 空中到处都是龙，一望无际。 一整支龙军正在向勿忘我小岛进发。 这些都是大型的骑龙，但在这种情况下，因为这是一次攻击行动，它们并没有被骑着。 每条龙的爪子上都挂着一个全副武装的维京战士。 勇士们拔剑而出，他们声嘶力竭地尖叫着凶残的战争呐喊。 凶残的部落正在猛攻笨蛋公共图书馆。 看到这种精确的动作真是太美了

of their attack. The dragons swooped down to the Library Entrance, and let the Warriors go at exactly the right moment so that they could hit the ground running, and could launch immediately into fighting the Meatheads, who poured out to greet them. A pitched battle was taking place, and the Murderous Tribe were winning, because they are some of the best barbarians in the business. 'HA!' whispered Fishlegs to Camicazi. 'So much for this Stealth Dragon being un-trackable! Five minutes later and Madguts would have caught us red-handed!' 'MMMmmm, you could be right,' admitted

他们的攻击。龙猛冲到图书馆入口，在恰当的时机放了勇士们，这样他们就可以迅速跑到地面上，并立即与蜂拥而来迎接他们的笨蛋们展开战斗。 一场激烈的战斗正在进行，凶残部落正在取得胜利，因为他们是这个行业中最优秀的野蛮人之一。 “哈!鱼腿对卡米卡齐耳语道。 “这条隐形龙不可能被追踪！”再过五分钟，疯子就会抓我们个正着！“嗯嗯，你可能是对的。

Camicazi guiltily. 'We'd better tell my mother she needs to get rid of it as soon as possible.' Hiccup got the Stealth Dragon to fly on a lower flight path than normal back to Berk. And it seemed as if the entire way, above them was this steady stream of Murderous Dragons flying in the other direction. 'That disgusting smell,' mused Stormfly, wrinkling her beautiful nostrils and peering upwards as she flew, 'it really reminds me of something and I can't think what…'

Camicazi内疚地。“我们最好告诉我妈妈，她需要尽快把它处理掉。”小嗝嗝让隐形龙以低于正常的飞行路线飞回博克。 在他们的头顶上，似乎整条路上都是恶龙源源不断地朝另一个方向飞去。 “那股恶心的味道，”暴风苍蝇若有所思地皱起美丽的鼻孔，向上凝视着，“它真的让我想起了什么，我想不起来是什么……”

There is a narrow gap called the Slice of Death that separates the North Meathead Island from the South Meathead Island. Most Vikings tend to avoid it, because there are shoals of dangerous reefs all the way along. But Camicazi steered straight towards it, and once they had entered the canyon, the Stealth Dragon didn't bother to fly any higher above the waves. He just swerved to avoid the rocks as if he were doing a slalom in the air. The impossibly high walls of the Cliff of Forever soared up to their left. The improbably high walls of the Cliff of Eternity stretched up to their right. And the Stealth Dragon swivelled his way through the rocks at the bottom of this tunnel of cliff like he was threading a needle through the treacherous surf. By the time they shot out of the Slice of Death, all three Vikings and their dragons were drenched with spray. Even Fishlegs forgot about the disgusting smell sufficiently to join the others in whooping with excitement as they were soaked by another wave, drenched in salt, and ears blown backward in the wind. He might not have felt so happy if he could have seen the sinister dark figure standing in front of the

有一个狭窄的缺口被称为死亡片，它将北Meathead岛和南Meathead岛分开。 大多数维京人倾向于避开它，因为一路上都有危险的珊瑚礁。 但卡米卡齐径直向它驶来，一旦他们进入峡谷，“隐形龙”号就懒得飞得比海浪更高了。 他只是突然转向以避开岩石，就像在空中做障碍回转一样。 他们的左边是永远悬崖高耸的峭壁。 永恒悬崖那难以置信的高墙伸向他们的右边。 隐形龙在悬崖底部的岩石中旋转，就像在危险的海浪中穿针引线一样。 当他们冲出死亡之片时，三个维京人和他们的龙都被水雾淋透了。 就连鱼腿也完全忘记了这令人作呕的气味，和其他人一起兴奋地尖叫起来，他们被另一个海浪浸透了，浑身是盐，耳朵被风吹得向后仰。 如果他能看到站在他面前的那个邪恶的黑影，他可能就不会这么高兴了
