Chapter 8

chapter eight Everybody explodes in exclamations. Dirk starts to fight me on it. June shouts something about how it's madness. Skaelka begins talking about eye-pecking birds again. But I just shake my head until my pals' shoulders slump with grim understanding. I'm the one who can do this, so I'm the one who must do this. My nerves twang like a banjo, but my hand hums in satisfaction. June catches my eye. I nod. And she reluctantly nods back. "I suppose," Quint begins, sounding unsure, "that I could rig something for you to carry up. Once you reach the entrance, you can lower it down for the rest of us." Everyone else is quiet—and I realize they're gonna stay that way until I make clear that I really am OK with this. Even if I'm not.

第八章每个人都惊呼起来。 德克开始跟我争这个。 琼大声说这太疯狂了。 Skaelka又开始谈论啄眼睛的鸟。 但我只是摇了摇头，直到我的朋友们的肩膀因严肃的理解而下垂。 我是能做这件事的人，所以我必须做这件事。 我的神经像班卓琴一样嗡嗡作响，但我的手却满足地嗡嗡作响。 六月吸引了我的目光。我点头。 她不情愿地点点头。 “我想，”昆特开始说，听起来很不确定，“我可以给你弄点东西带上去。 一旦你到了入口，你就可以把它放下来给我们其他人。” 其他人都很沉默——我意识到他们会一直保持沉默，直到我明确表示我真的可以接受。 即使我不是。

So let's hop to a gang. Mission operations, sneak inside the fortress and blow it up, thus destroying the schematics before throw can get his bony paws on them. "Your proposed title for this Mission Operation is a tad lengthy," Quint says. "But OK! So... like I said, we'll each have a role to fill. Jack will get us inside..." Dirk perks up. "Ooh! I'm gonna be the Muscle! All silent and sneaky when needed—and then, also, super 'BOOM, FIST TO YOUR FACE, BAD GUY!' Hmm... I'm gonna need some special extra-quiet shoes for this..." "Boom? Did someone say boom?" June asks." 'Cause I call dibs on making stuff go boom. I might not know anything about conjuring or

所以让我们跳到一个帮派。任务操作，潜入堡垒并炸毁它，从而在投掷可以得到他的骨爪之前摧毁图纸。 昆特说：“你为这次任务行动提议的标题有点长。 “但OK !所以…就像我说的，我们每个人都有自己的角色。 杰克会带我们进去的……” 德克振作起来。“哦!我要演肌肉男！在需要的时候保持沉默和鬼鬼祟祟，然后，超级“砰，拳头打在你脸上，坏人！”嗯… 我需要一双特别的静音鞋……” “繁荣?有人说‘爆炸’了吗？”6月问道。“ 因为我有权让东西爆炸。 我可能对魔法一窍不通

interdimensional cosmic blow-ups—but you know what I do know about?" She slaps her Blasty hand onto the table. "BLASTING! And I'm pumped to blast that evil place to bits, because that means I'm one step closer to reuniting with my family!" "This is a delightful new side of you, June," I say with a teasing grin. She points her regular, normal, not-Blasty hand at me and grins back. "BOOM." Skaelka cocks her head. "How you four are not yet dead, I do not know," she says, before announcing, "I will be your guide on this perilous journey, navigating you to the heart of that foul fortress." Quint says, "And now that we know how we're getting in, here's how it's all going to go down..."

次元宇宙大爆炸——但你知道我知道什么吗？”她用力拍了拍桌子。 “爆破!我迫不及待地想把那个邪恶的地方炸成碎片，因为这意味着我离和家人团聚又近了一步！”“这是你令人愉快的新一面，琼，”我揶揄地笑着说。 她用她那只正常的，正常的，没有爆炸的手指着我，笑了笑。 “繁荣”。Skaelka抬起头。 “我不知道你们四个怎么还没死，”她说，然后宣布，“我将是你们这趟危险旅程的向导，带你们到那座肮脏堡垒的中心。” 昆特说：“现在我们知道怎么进去了，接下来的步骤是这样的……”

the plan. I have affix photographs of your faces to these figures. They represent your role in mission operation. Break the fortress. Wait, hold up. Why am I a bar? I'm bringing the boom-not an eyebrow brush. What's with this hamburger guy? Are you applying that? I like hamburgers too much because I don't. I like hamburger's irregu amount. I got Spiderman. I'm happy. That's actually aracknitz ha

这个计划。我把你们的照片贴在了这些数字上。 它们代表了你在任务执行中的角色。 攻破堡垒。等等，等等。 为什么我是酒吧？我带的是梳子，不是眉刷。 这个卖汉堡的是怎么回事？ 你在应用它吗？我太喜欢汉堡包了，因为我不喜欢。 我喜欢汉堡包的不规则量。 我有蜘蛛侠。我很高兴。 这实际上是acknitz ha

Skulker is very pleased with this very realistic insect. You, my dude, has a wad of chewed up bubble gum on him. I think that's supposed to be drooler guys. The figures don't matter. They are simply articulated. Plastic stand-ins for ease of explanation. Of course, it don't matter to you. You gave yourself ObieOne cannobio a mere coincidence. How about you conjure us up some better guys? How about you all be quiet while I tell you how this is going to go down?

狐儿对这只非常逼真的昆虫非常满意。 你，我的哥们，身上有一团嚼烂的泡泡糖。 我想应该是流口水的人。 数字并不重要。它们被简单地表达出来。 塑料替身便于解释。 当然，这对你来说无关紧要。 你给了自己一个奥比昂，这绝不是巧合。 不如你给我们召唤一些更好的人？ 在我告诉你们怎么处理这件事的时候，你们都安静好吗？

We approach the fortress from the south side, then round to the cliff of infinite fatalities. Are we settled on that name? The cliff of infinite fatalities? It doesn't inspire confidence. Jack ascends the cliff and smash. Whoops, let me try that again. Hmm, don't know why it's not sticking. This is also not inspiring confidence.

我们从南边接近堡垒，然后绕到绝壁。 名字定下来了吗？ 无尽的死亡悬崖？ 它不能激发信心。 杰克爬上悬崖摔了下去。 哎呀，让我再试一次。 不知道为什么粘不上。 这也不能激发信心。
