9 Ch9-The Secret of the Keys

CHAPTER 9 THE SECRET OF THE KEYS Drake and Rori dashed through the open door and raced to the spiral staircase. They bounded down the steps to the next walkway and headed for the nearest door. Before they could reach it, two glowing red orbs appeared in front of them.

第九章钥匙的秘密德雷克和罗里冲进敞开的门，冲向螺旋形楼梯。 他们蹦蹦跳跳地走下台阶，来到另一条人行道上，向最近的那扇门走去。 还没等他们走到跟前，两个红色的发光球体就出现在他们面前。

The glowing orbs quickly surrounded the Dragon Masters. Drake's skin prickled as both orbs floated down to Maldred's workshop.

发光的球体迅速包围了龙主。 当两个魔法球飘向玛德雷德的工作室时，德雷克的皮肤刺痛了。

They landed in front of Maldred. Drake noticed his silver sword propped up against the workshop wall. Pop! The orbs burst like bubbles, freeing Drake and Rori.

他们在玛德雷德面前降落。 德雷克注意到他的银剑靠在车间的墙上。 流行!魔法球像泡泡一样爆裂，把德雷克和罗里解救了出来。

Eko ran into the room. "I am sorry, Maldred," she said. "They surprised me." Maldred scowled at her. "I need you to keep a better watch over my prisoners," he said. "I am going to need them."

Eko跑进房间。“对不起，玛德丽德。” “他们让我大吃一惊。”玛德丽德怒视着她。 “我需要你更好地看守我的囚犯，”他说。 “我需要它们。”

"What do you need us for?" Rori asked. "Let me show you what I've discovered," Maldred said, rubbing his hands together. "I was staring at the markings on the keys when it came to me. Watch!" He picked up the silver disc and pressed it into a dish of black ink. Then he pressed the disc onto a clean sheet of white paper. The raised markings on the key were stamped on the paper.

“你需要我们做什么?”Rori问道。 “让我给你看看我的发现。”玛德雷德搓着双手说。 “我正盯着钥匙上的标记，突然想到了。 看!”他拿起银盘，把它压在一盘黑墨水里。 然后他把光盘压在一张干净的白纸上。 钥匙上凸起的标记印在纸上。

"Now the Gold Key," he said, and he repeated the process. He stamped the Gold Key right on top of the design left by the Silver Key. Rori gasped. "That looks like a map!" she cried. "Exactly," Maldred said. Then he covered the paper so Rori and Drake couldn't see it. "I recognize the islands on it. Now I know where to find the Naga!"

“现在是金钥匙，”他说，然后重复了这个过程。 他把金钥匙印在银钥匙留下的图案上。 Rori气喘吁吁地说。“那看起来像一张地图!”她喊道。 “没错。”玛德雷德说。然后他把纸盖上，这样罗里和德雷克就看不见了。 “我认得上面的岛屿。 现在我知道到哪里去找那迦了!”
