8 Ch8-The Head Wizard

CHAPTER 8 THE HEAD WIZARD Drake and Petra stepped into the room, where a woman was sitting behind a desk. The woman wasn't wearing a wizard's hat. Her white hair was pulled back from her wrinkled face. Instead of wizard's robes, she wore an orange dress with fabric draped over her shoulder. But when her dark brown eyes gazed at him, Drake shivered. He could almost feel the magic coming out of them.

第八章首席巫师德雷克和佩特拉走进房间，桌子后面坐着一个女人。 那个女人没有戴巫师帽。 她的白发从布满皱纹的脸上梳了起来。 她没有穿巫师长袍，而是穿了一件橙色的裙子，肩上披着布料。 但当她深棕色的眼睛凝视着他时，德雷克颤抖了。 他几乎能感觉到魔法从他们身上冒出来。

"Hello, Drake and Petra," the Head Wizard said, and Drake was not surprised that she knew their names. "Tessa, please come in. But I'm afraid your dragon won't fit in the room." "That's fine," Tessa said. She entered, using her staff to tap the floor in front of her. "I am the Head Wizard. You may call me Jayana," she informed them. Jayana nodded to Petra. "Bring me Griffith."

“你好，德雷克和佩特拉。”男巫头领说。她知道他们的名字，德雷克并不感到奇怪。 “特莎，请进来。但我担心你的龙放不下这个房间。” “那很好，”特莎说。 她走了进去，用手杖敲了敲前面的地板。 “我是首席巫师。你们可以叫我贾安娜，”她告诉他们。 贾安娜向佩特拉点了点头。“把格里菲思带来。”

Petra stepped forward and put the duck on the desk. Griffith waddled over to the wizard. "Quack! Quack quack quack!" "Oh dear," Jayana said, smiling. "I'm sorry to smile, my friend, but this is rather funny." She clapped, and two wizards rushed into the room. "Perform the Spell of Undoing on this duck," she told them. "He should end up as a human wizard when you're done." One of the wizards scooped up Griffith. Then they both left without a word. Drake frowned. "Will the spell work?"

佩特拉走上前，把鸭子放在桌子上。 格里菲思摇摇摆摆地走向巫师。 “庸医!呱，呱，呱!”“哦，天哪，”贾安娜微笑着说。 “我很抱歉笑，我的朋友，但这很有趣。” 她拍了拍手，两个巫师冲进了房间。 “对这只鸭子施毁灭咒。”她告诉他们。 哈利说，“你说完，他就应该变成一个人类巫师了。” 一个巫师抓住了格里菲斯。 然后他们俩一句话也没说就走了。 德雷克皱起了眉头。“这个咒语有用吗?”

"It will, but it may take an hour or so," Jayana replied. "We don't have that much time!" Tessa blurted out. "There is a wizard duel in Remus, and it's getting out of control!" "Is Felix involved?" Jayana asked. "He is not a rule breaker." "Marco challenged him to a duel," Tessa answered. "Felix is just trying to save our city."

“会的，但可能需要一个小时左右，”Jayana回答。 “我们没有那么多时间!”特莎脱口而出。 “莱姆斯正在进行一场巫师决斗，而且正在失去控制!”“菲利克斯参与了吗?”Jayana问道。 “他不是一个不守规矩的人。” “马可向他提出决斗，”特莎回答。 “费利克斯只是想拯救我们的城市。”

The wizard's eyes widened. "But Marco has been missing for years! When did he come back?" "Maldred trapped him in time, but he escaped. It's a long story," Drake said. "Tessa is right. We need to act fast to save Remus!" Jayana stood up and walked to a corner of the room, where a gazing ball sat on a round table. She waved her hand over it.

巫师睁大了眼睛。 “但是马可已经失踪好几年了!”他什么时候回来的?”“玛德丽德及时拦住了他，但他逃脱了。 这是一个很长的故事，”德雷克说。 特莎说得对。我们得赶快行动起来救莱姆斯!”贾安娜站起来，走到房间的一个角落，那里的圆桌上放着一个凝视球。 她在上面挥了挥手。

"Remus," she said. An image of the arena appeared inside the glass. The red-and-yellow mist over the arena was now a big swirling cloud. People were running away from it. The Head Wizard turned to the Dragon Masters. "You're right. This is serious," she said. "Only a Power Crystal can stop this magic." "So let's get a Power Crystal!" Tessa cried. Jayana shook her head. "I'm afraid that's impossible," she said. "And without a Power Crystal, Remus will fall!"

“莱姆斯。”她说。一幅竞技场的图像出现在玻璃里。 竞技场上空的红黄相间的薄雾现在变成了一大片旋转的云。 人们都躲得远远的。 首席巫师转向龙主们。 “你是对的。这很严重，”她说。 “只有力量水晶才能阻止魔法。” “那么，我们去买一个能量水晶吧!”泰哭了。 贾安娜摇了摇头。“恐怕这是不可能的，”她说。 “没有力量水晶，莱姆斯会掉下去的!”
