Chapter 4

chapter four I make it almost all the way to Quint's house just by creeping quietly and sticking to backyards. But then I hit Oak Street. Oak Street is flooded with zombies. I decide to hop the fence and go across the football field that borders Quint's house. Usually I steer clear of big open fields like that, 'cause they're a death trap, but it would take ages to go around and

第四章我几乎是一路爬到昆特家的，只是悄悄爬到后院。 但后来我到了橡树街。 橡树街到处都是僵尸。 我决定跳过篱笆，穿过昆特家附近的足球场。 通常我会避开那样的开阔地带，因为那里是死亡陷阱，但要绕过去要花很长时间

I'm just way too pumped to see my best buddy. Halfway across the football field, though, I see I made a mistake. Because halfway across the football field, I run into a Dozer. Dozers are just straight-up GIANT MONSTERS. Dozer travel alone. Unlike the zombies will eat zombies, but seem to prefer the living horns for stabbing, hurting, piercing, other bad stuff. Super strong whip zombies around like ragdolls. Thick skin protects internal organs.

我只是太兴奋了，不想见到我最好的朋友。 然而，在足球场的中间，我发现我犯了一个错误。 因为在足球场的中间，我撞上了一辆推土机。 推土机就是不折不扣的巨型怪物。 推土机独自旅行。不像僵尸会吃僵尸，但似乎更喜欢用活的角来刺，伤害，刺穿，其他不好的东西。 超级强壮，像布娃娃一样鞭打僵尸。 厚厚的皮肤保护内部器官。

Since Dozers were never people to begin with, I don't feel so bad when I destroy 'em. I just tell myself I'm being a monster-slayer. 'Cause I am. And that's awesome. I reach for a grapefruit grenade—usually one of those to the eyes of a Dozer will stun it long enough for me to dash to saftey. But I stop when I hear a familiar, thundering roar —a second Dozer, behind me... I'm in a real pickle. And I hate pickles... I hate pickles the food and I hate "pickles," like when you're in a jam. Although, funny enough, I do love jam. Red raspberry, preferably. Suddenly, out of nowhere, I hear a sound like FLIIIITT—

因为推土机一开始就不是人，所以当我摧毁它们的时候，我也不会感觉很糟糕。 我只是告诉自己我在做一个怪物杀手。 因为我就是。这太棒了。 我伸手去拿一枚葡萄柚手榴弹——通常推土机眼中的那种手榴弹会把它打晕，让我有足够的时间冲到安全的地方。 但当我听到一声熟悉的雷鸣般的轰鸣声时，我停了下来——第二辆推土机在我身后…… 我真的很为难。我讨厌泡菜…… 我讨厌腌菜，我讨厌“腌菜”，就像你陷入困境的时候。 不过，有趣的是，我确实喜欢果酱。 最好是红覆盆子。 突然，不知从什么地方，我听到一种像FLIIIITT -的声音

KA-SHNÅCK! WHUP! It's Quint! My savior! The only guy I know who would ever own a roof-mounted arrow launcher! Jack move swiftly! I sprint past the still-gurgling Dozer, leaving the second one in the dust. Down the dirt pathway, up and over the old wooden fence, and into Quint's backyard.

KA-SHNACK !大胜!这是五胞胎!我的救世主!他是我认识的人中唯一一个拥有车顶箭发射器的人！杰克，快点！我冲过那辆还在咯咯作响的推土机，把第二辆甩在了后面。 沿着泥泞的小路，爬上旧木篱笆，进入昆特家的后院。

And there, waiting for me, is a whole mess of the undead suckers. Time to go to work.

在那里，等着我的，是一群乱七八糟的僵尸。 该去上班了。
