荒野机器人 · 2 The Wild Robot Escapes
CHAPTER 86 THE FLIGHT Sitting on the pavement, glinting in the sun, was a sleek white airship. For so long, those white ships had filled the robot with dread. Now one was about to solve all her problems. The door hummed open and Dr. Molovo, Roz, and Brightbill climbed aboard. Once they were comfortable, the woman spoke to the airship. "Take us to the island where ROZZUM unit 7134 was found." The engines fired up and the ship lifted off. It floated high into the air, turned to the north, and started cruising above the city. The three of them quietly watched the buildings and streets pass below. The city seemed to go on forever. But as they flew faster and farther, it slowly gave way to towns and countryside. They crossed the hard edge of the coastline, and then there was only the ocean and the sky and the airship.
第八十六章飞行一艘光滑的白色飞艇停在人行道上,在阳光下闪闪发光。 长久以来,那些白色的飞船让机器人充满了恐惧。 现在有一个人要解决她所有的问题了。 门嗡嗡地开了。 莫罗沃、罗兹和布莱特比尔爬上了船。 等他们坐得舒服了,那个女人对着飞艇说话。 “带我们去发现ROZZUM 7134部队的那个岛。” 发动机发动起来,船就起飞了。 它高高飘向空中,转向北方,开始在城市上空巡航。 他们三个静静地看着下面的建筑物和街道。 这座城市似乎没有尽头。 但随着他们飞得越来越快,它慢慢被城镇和乡村所取代。 他们越过坚硬的海岸线,剩下的只有大海、天空和飞艇了。
The ocean was deep. However, scattered throughout the dark depths were shallow areas: sandbars, reefs, islands just under the waves. In places, bizarre rock formations stuck up from the shallows. Or were they the ruins of old buildings? The mysterious shapes faded behind the airship and were replaced by more dark depths. The ship flew on and the hours flew by. Gradually, fluffy clouds came into view on the edge of the horizon. Beneath the clouds was a faint smudge of green. The island. It grew closer and bigger, and then Roz was gazing out at all the places she'd missed. The rocky shore! The mountain and the waterfall! The forests and the meadows and the ponds! Air blasted toward the ground as the ship lowered itself into a grassy clearing. It gently touched down. The engines powered off.
海洋很深。然而,散布在黑暗深处的是一些浅水区域:沙洲、暗礁、海浪下的岛屿。 在一些地方,奇怪的岩层从浅滩上伸出来。 还是旧建筑的废墟? 神秘的身影消失在飞艇后面,取而代之的是更黑暗的深渊。 船继续前进,时光飞逝。 渐渐地,在地平线的边缘出现了蓬松的云。 云下有一抹淡淡的绿色。 岛上。它越来越近,越来越大,然后罗兹凝视着所有她错过的地方。 岩石海岸!那座山和瀑布!森林、草地和池塘!当飞船降落在一片草地上时,空气猛烈地冲向地面。 它轻轻地着陆了。引擎熄火了。
